Poll: Should there be a custrom games list? [closed]
Total Votes: 8
Personally, I liked Halo 2 better than Halo 3 when it came to online.
The reason? Custom games. For whatever reason, it seemed like Halo 2 was based heavily around Custom games. Cat and Mouse, Zombies (The original...You know, honor rules?), Mafia, etc. The actual matchmaking was sweet, but the custom games were really where it was at. And the best part? Every time you logged on, it seemed that 8 out of your ten friends were in some kind of custom game .You'd join, you'd play, it was awesome.
That didn't hold true for Halo 3. It just didn't happen....Online was huge, matchmaking was huge. Done and done.
My idea? An xbox live 'forum' for custom games. Think about it. You can go into matchmaking, have that as it always was. Or, select custom games and a list appears of all games accepting people. You'd find zombies, cat and mouse, custom map battles (Let's be honest, doesn't it suck to forge an excellent map and never get the sixteen people required for capture the flag?).
The list would allow you to see the game type, map (if forged, show map name and original map.), people in, people allowed. Perhaps you could add a note as well. ie; "For serious capture the flaggers" "Zombies are faster" "No one under 16 years old allowed"
It's a thought I've had for a while, figured I'd see what you guys think.
