We need to stop asking for flamethrowers and plasma pistols. We need to start thinking more about the competitive side of Halo. This thread has a lot of good suggestions to make Halo more competitive and slightly more fast paced.

Instead of just vetoing. i'd like to see a voting system. Such as you can pick 1 of 2 maps, and 1 of 2 gametypes. and incase someone isn't paying attention, or cant be bothered to choose, the system can choose it randomly for them

Make it so u can veto before the map has finished loading. So when a map that the majoity wants to veto comes up u dont have to wait 30s for it to load + then another 30s for the second one. This would just help to speed up the amout of time it take to get into a game.
I also like the idea of reintoducing the ability to save film of game in th epost game lobby obviously ur going to have to find a different button than x as thats used for partying up in team games. Also the trip mine needs more power u can just walk over one and not die. If a warthog or ghost drives over one it on full shield it needs to kill them in one other wise its just like a power drain in that it lowers shields but isn't useful as it doesn't cut their engine so they can just drive away from u.
Matchmaking needs to be fixed so that if u quit a game you gain less skill points (if u win)(ie your team wins it for u or no one manages to overtake ur score in ffa) and you loose more skill points if you loose. When i say skill points i mean the behind the scenes calculations that are going on in the trueskill system that effectively you have a level up bar of skill points which gets filled up by so much depending on the skill of the people u beat or gets depeleted when u loose depending on the people u loose to's skill until the point when its emty or full and then u derank or rank up respectivly. This act s as an real deterrant to quitters as people really dont care about xp they can quit out a game in the first few secs in rank 49 team slayer and when we loose which is likely being a man down its hardly fair that he looses the same as all the people who stayed in the game. He was the reason we lost so he shoild loose more. I'm not so sure about this one but I think the amout you win should be taken into account in leveling up so if u beat a team 50 20 as long as no one on their team quit then u should level up more and the opposite should b true if u loose to a team 50-49 you should de level less as long as no one quit of the other team

and if ur on a team which people have quit off and u loose to a team who has

Well I have a lot of things I would like to see in Halo 3.

1. Trueskill System should be changed from that crazy mathematical formula to something more based on SKILL. If I get 15 headshots in 5 games in a row I think that shows that I've increased my ability to deliver headshots, and my skill should go up. I understand there are many people who have gotten to 45 and higher with this skill system in place, but you have to give the people who aren't as lucky with that mu sigma thing a chance.

2. Team Snipers playlist. It's always good to see a classic from Halo 2, not to mention that this was my favorite playlist.

3. Map remakes of Ascension, Desolation, and Turf.

4. Get rid of HC Snowbound and put back the original. Without the laser, its become difficult to take out the ghost you've left on. Also, take out Snowbound from Team Doubles.

5. Put back the maulers and the flare on Guardian.

6. Put back Team Tactical.

7. Incendiary Grenades...enough said.

8. Slightly increase the melee power of the BR.

9. More maps, More maps, More maps.

10. More maps for 1 on 1 games. Guardian and Blackout are really the only ones suitable.

11. Add Infection into a social playlist of some sort.

12. No more Legendary Brawl.

13. Re randomize the spawn points on the maps to thwart those people who have tried to memorize them and spawn kill people in ranked games.

14. Matchmaking has to be more oriented for skill and try to stop boosters. I hate to see level 40 Sergeants in Team Slayer who made a new account just to get to 50 again or something like that.

15. Workable rewind and fast forward functions in Films. Also a way to save films or transfer them to the computer that is easier.

16. Make Head to Head social. I don't see how it would really make people rank up by beating one person.

------

Well these are just some suggestions, I still love Halo 3 to death either way.

MVP in slayer as player with highest K/D ratio
and the ability to save films from post game lobby
Can't be too hard

  • 06.04.2008 1:20 PM PDT

A social MLG playlist, with Social MLG doubles. And Ranked MLG Doubles.

Also Make a spawn system that works so that it is impossible to spawn trap.

ex: The pit every team spawns on one side how about people spawn near they're teammates? And/or they spawn on the opposite side of the map from their enemies Last known possitions.
So that people can either flank them and it stops setups that run maps. But don't change it for Flag and stuff like that.

an AI bot system (being able to add enemies to forge????)for custom games or multiplayer combat scenarios also a grifball and sniper playlist wouldnt be bad. Also being able to add any weapon or vehicle to a map would be pretty cool

I really like what Mayhim O43 said about the grunt playlist and make it where you dont have two picks beetween armor classification(elite or spartan)but 3 including being a brute in armor classification.Also I have noticed (and experienced) that many players veto a map that
they dont like and then after they veto they get something they hate worse, for example, I am about to play on my 2nd most hated map, "isolation"(so I veto)after i veto I get the map I hate most of all the maps, "snowbound" so please make it to where it tells you what the next map
is if you veto.Last but not least, please dont make people die so much in campaign, I thought
Sgt.Johnson was cool.

Once your lost in Twilights Blue you don't find the way; the way finds you.

I think a re-design of the format in which games are categoried plus a major change in the gametypes offered may well be a good idea.

Possibly a social MLG, as well as a Custom created foundry game section within community. Where a mix of Slayer and objective gametypes would come into the frame.

Other changes i would like to see implemented is an "Action" game format, where slayer and objective is given equel weighting however both the slayer & objective games are obscurities; Such as Team Lasers (On small maps), Multi ball etc etc. This would give the matchmaking side a playlist that feels more like a small custom game which i think is a good thing.

Opinions on that?

First of all. A lot of people Love Shotty Snipers, and Team Snipers. But at the same time, a lot of people hate them. I say make it its own play list. Call it Ranked Snipers, and that way, the people who are playing slayer, dont have to get stuck playing something they dont like.

The main problem I see with the sniper is its a rapid fire weapon. I rarely see headshots, all I see is people getting hit in the knee and falling over dead. Im sorry, but that is just stupid.

So I say, Keep slayer SLAYER, and make seperate playlists for the other things.

I actually really like the idea of Beam Rifles and swords as well. Why have everything revolve around spartans? Why not have a Covenant game type?
