you are a good translator
Idiot can be a hard language to learn, but once you get it down, everything becomes so clear! The whole world will make sense to you.

Step 1; find more friends even if they are randoms.

Firefight is built on top of the campaign networking model. There's no matchmaking functionality.


God freaking dammit Bungie give us a matchmaking option! Not everyone here has a billion friends to team up with in some games. I rather run the risk of playing with randoms than have no one to play with at all. Besides, these forums would get flooded with Firefight requests and people to party up with. I can understand the co-op campaign networking for this is ridiculous!

Left 4 Dead has better matchmaking for their Survival mode! Apples and oranges I know but I'm just making the networking comparison.

Question; Matchmaking or Firefight?

Answer; Yes

Wait... what? That's not yes or no question....

Otherwise I vote for Firefight...

"Undoubtedly this is the heretic's doing!"

Honestly this shouldn't even be an issue. This should have been thought of the moment Firefight was conceived of.

  • 06.14.2009 6:29 PM PDT

Usually when I play with randoms on N@zi Zombies, or GoW2's Horde, we barely make it past wave 5, I really wouldn't mind not having matchmaking for Firefight.

  • 06.14.2009 6:33 PM PDT

No. I don't want random players not knowing what they're doing, or trying to dictate the team.

  • 06.14.2009 6:36 PM PDT

Well this sucks, but at least my younger brother is willing to play.

  • 06.14.2009 6:43 PM PDT

i dont know why the wouldnt make it on a network AND matchmaking

  • 06.14.2009 6:59 PM PDT

Ahhh! can't believe they took it out of the dictionary ....and NO I'm not coming out of my shell untill you get that THING off my avatar

I'm assuimg there will be. I think bungie would be pretty foolish not to include match making with firefight. Epic included it with horde mode ,but he I'm not working for bungie so what do I know?

RAWR!

the problem is that its hard to even get three extra people to play it. so yea it should be on matchmaking.

PPPPPP--POWER!

I definitely agree that this is a viable idea. However how would this be any different than playing Campaign online (unless it doesn't support any online play whatsoever)?

"Play to win...Win to live."

Sad face, no matchmaking for firefight?

Call of Duty: World at War has matching making for Campaign AND -blam!- Zombies.

Why cant Halo have that to?

Yes, but I hope it has 4 player splitscreen too. In addition, I want it to be atleast 6 player coop not 4.

I'm pretty sure they've already confirmed that you can't have more than four people playing. I think it also works the same as the Halo 3 campaign, in that you can only have two people per console.


No i'm pretty sure you can have four geusts with you for this gametype i think it said in a bungie update

Alot of people keep saying i don't want get bad team mates but if you just want play with friends haveing a matchmaking system would not stop you playing with freinds it would just let alot of people play who cant get 3 freinds at the time. plus on zombies on cod i get far with random people alot anyway....

this should not be a question, this is a must option!

  • 06.15.2009 5:53 AM PDT

look at the results of this poll, and then tell me it shouldn't have the option.

I really hope they have a MM option

"Undoubtedly this is the heretic's doing!"

Someone should keep pestering Bungie about this until they address the question in a weekly update. They have plenty of time to put in matchmaking for Firefight.

  • 06.15.2009 9:18 AM PDT

"Undoubtedly this is the heretic's doing!"

Doublepost! Honestly, other games have matchmaking for their cooperative modes, it's inexcusable not to have the same for Firefight.
