I don't get why Bungie isn't making a Matchmaking system for Firefight. I was getting so hyped up for Firefight that I dusted off my Gears of War 2 disk and started playing some Horde mode. The Matchmaking system works fine for that. So why won't there be one for Firefight?

Sorry, I can't hear them over the sounds of Modern Warfare 3 on my Turtle Beaches.

Maybe by the fact that you wouldn't want to be stuck with "serious" people who literally trash talk you just because you died.

I wouldn't mind a Single-Person Firefight mode. (That'd be good for non-XBL gamers).

because firefight is built on the campaign networking model, campaign is not compatible with matchmaking so firefight doesn't either. they just cant do it with the current halo 3 setup.

hopefully in halo Reach they'll base firefight off the matchmaking network model, so we could have matchmaking.

(i don't know the specifics but this is the basic reason)

Firefight is compatible with 1-4 players. You can play it by yourself, but I imagine it would be kinda rough...

I speak the truth, and truth speaks itself.
The lies disguise what you despise.
Run. Flee and be, what you've always dreamed.
What happens now won't matter later.
What you see will not be, nor what you imagine will not happen.
The end is close, so take your dose.

Halo's EXP Progression system wouldn't work here.

I prefer using this account.

Matchmaking wouldn't work. Be course Firefight is built up from the campaign, which doesn't have matchmaking. I might prefer playing firefight alone.
