Subject: So, is there Matchmaking for Firefight?

lols everyone knows bulletproof glass cannot withstand teacups thrown by russian women.

Simple question, I can't find the answer anywhere: will there be a Matchmaking ability for Firefight, similar to GOW2's Horde mode, or will we HAVE to have three friends to be able to play online? If it's the latter, I'm gonna be seriously bummed, because I'll get about as much use out of Firefight as I do Halo 3 co-op (which is basically none).

And so there was a man who ate cake.

And he was happy it was that way.

Nope, you can invite people over LIVE, play 2 person split screen or use system link but there is not MM.

No. You invite people to join your party. It won't be like COD5 or GOW2.

Lame. I never have three people playing Halo 3 as it is, so chances are I'm never gonna get three people devoted solely to Firefight.

Sorry, but that was a really lame idea by Bungie not to include Matchmaking for Firefight.

There are groups out there that are organizing it so you can find players easier.

I won't link them on here but they are out there if you look.

Nope, I wish you could though. It would bring some competition to N@zi Zombies.

My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

I really hope they release matchmaking for it. Sure, people would complain about being matched with a bad team, but honestly, it would be worth it.

Better to have a poor team than no team at all, I say...

First, this is a Furom devoted to everything ODST, you'll make friends who will more than likely play Firefight.

Second, it runs on the same system the Campaign runs on, so they really couldn't make it available for Matchmaking.

I'd rather go solo than have a team that does nothing but use up the extra lives.

Do you mean you litteraly didn't come up with anything or that you searched the page and didn't find anything?

Because there have been tons of threads about this subject.

I did, you actually never specifically said that you used the search feature.
And I was only trying to help you. D;
Plus, I've seen almost a dozen of these topics so I find it hard to believe that you did.
