we could really use a coustom game search..

WTF are we forging big 16 people BTB maps when no body plays them. And once or twice i found like 16 people but it was soo laggy that sniping/accurate bring was impossible.

i just think that we could use a system like we had for Halo: CE (PC) gamespy really did a good job on that, you can join and quit at any time and according to the options you may boot betraying retards or switch teams, basiclly do what ever you want.

Also they should really add an opition for chatting, like team chat or chat-all.

Btw, ping searching will reduce a lot of lag, when a sever have too much people, others are not gonna come in and make it more laggy.

Customs take away from the multi-player match making expierence that Bungie wants us to have.

But custom games are more fun than Matchmaking, in my opinion. I never have fun in Matchmaking, but custom games are great.

Fact 2: European guys are hotter

I guess I can understand if you don't want to make out with guys in the US if they're so ugly, you should just say so though.

He's probably an Elite because they look cool. Are you really going to judge the guy from the player model he uses? Lol.

And he's right anyways, customs are way more fun than matchmaking. There's variety, people aren't crying about their ranks, and everyone is just playing for fun like they should be in a game.

Custom games are ment to be played with friends to have fun and to not have people caring only about rank so if there is a custom games search then nobody would know anybody


.......Huh?

You do realise that you can't go further than the 60th minute in an hour right?

Yeah ok, maybe not in Canada...

WAHBAM!

lol

Seriously though, just add people that play custom games to your friendslist. Then you will always have atleast one person playing customs and then use the butterfly effect. Invite two people and have them invite two people and so on and so forth. You don't need a search. I'd rather them spend the time they'd use on making that towards the campaign and it's replayability.

Matchmaking is the heathen that has ruined multiplayer gaming forever.

perhaps a matchmaking playlist that only has custom games and have a dedicated part of bungie dedicated to choosing custom maps to put on this play list kind of like atlas but make it more of a chance to get on them in on the playliist . probably wouldn't work but it is just an idea

Whats to stop bungie keeping the current system but adding a custom game search as an extra? I for one would love to see custom games making more of an appearence in reach

Yub, Me 3.

Bungie really gotta do somthing.

Btw about the decreasing in pop thing, bungie should never had made MM playlists Ranked and Soical. People arent serious in ranked and everyone's too serious in ranked.

" abit off topic here" i hope when Reach comes out it would have a list something like this
Action Sack
(Viceball Grifball Douge-ball Punch-out Pit of Joy Tower of Power Vip .etc)
Rumbit pit
(Slayer/Zombie/Oddball/KOTH.etc)
Flag/Team Slayer/Assault 5 vs 5
Flag/Team Slayer/Assault 8 vs 8
(One flag 10% Muti-flag 20% Slayer 30% Netural assault 20% One Bomb 10% Muti-flag heavy 3.3% Slayer heavy 3.3% Netural assault heavy3.3%)
MLG
(MLG)
SWAT
(SWATgun 10% SWAT 90%)
Snipers
(Snipers 100%)
2X EXP- 3 Ball- Grifball/Viceball/Dougeball
- Community maps (good ones)
- 3 Ball
- Zombie (Must be fixed or eles I will noscope Obama)
- Fiseta
- 16 People Rumble Pit
- Swards
- Shotties Flag

If you want to see the MC die, play Legendary. If you want to see MC finish the fight, play Halo 3. If you want to see MC finish the fight by dieing, why did you waste six years when you could have done it yourself right now?

Halo is no ordinary game. Its popularity is so freeken massive, there's room for all kinds of carnage. A custom search would make it even more convenient, and maybe we wouldn't see as many Generals of Social Slayer.

Bungie should just keep both! People who like having fun should play custom games and people who like playing matchmaking and getting the crap sniped out of them by annoyng tebagging 12 year olds is there business. The only problem is bungies servers, which are too frigging slow! I rather play call of duty or something becuase there servers are way faster. Also, wouldnt it be better if you could rank up in custom games, instead of playing game after game of matchmaking and never rank up?

They should do it like most games should and also offer an option to define some of the settings, and search for open customs that have those settings.

Example: VIP on Last Resort. 8 matches found. Pick one.

I think that a possible solution should be how Bungie did the Halo PC servers. It would just list every ones games and then people could come and go as they please. I think the downside would be that there would just be too many games to handle. Maybe split the custom game search engine into regions or something, which might also prevent lag.

Ture, but it's more like a Bungie game search than a custom game search.
it really sucks when you get -blam!- maps over and over again, and -blam!- game types too.
But i gotta agree with you on this one

Well isnt the experience we want to have more important than the one "the expiernce Bungie wants us to have"? That sounds like propaganda, I mean if people like custom games more than matchmaking then who cares really? I mean its not like matchmaking is going to go away and like some other people said its more fun then matchmaking anyway.
