Subject: Playlists that should be available upon release

Posted by: Duardo
I'd love to be a 10 year old and tell my mom I'm going on an adventure out into the world catching Pokemon, with her full support. Never mind the fact that there are rapists, criminals, and murders out there, or the fact that I may get killed by a Pokemon.

Luckily I have Pikachu.

I decided to create this thread in order to inform Bungie of obvious mistakes they made with Matchmaking when Halo 3 launched. They waited to long to include some of the most popular and diffirent playlists from Halo 2 and I hope it does not happen again.

Heres what Halo Reach will most likely include upon release...

Ranked:
Lone Wolves
Team Slayer
Team Objective
Team Doubles
Team Hardcore

Social:
Basic Training
Rumble Pit
Social Slayer
Multi Team
Social Skirmish
Social Doubles

Now, those are the most obvious ones that will be available when the game is released, but there were a few obvious ones from Halo 2 that were not available for months after Halo 3 was released.

Heres what should be included DAY ONE!

Team Swat (Seriously, how is Halo 2's second most played playlist not available in Halo 3 or Halo: Reach day one?)

Social Big Team (No ranked version right away incase of unexpected issues with lag... Ranked Big Team will follow)

Team Snipers (obvious choice is obvious)


Also, for those wondering why I did not include MLG, keep in mind that MLG would not have any official gametypes released for Halo: Reach untill a month or two after the game is released. So there will be no official MLG playlist right away, that is why Team Hardcore would serve as a substitute untill then.

One day... I am gonna grow wings... A chemical reaction... Hysterical and useless... hystecial and let down and hanging around... crushed like a bug in the ground.

I have to say Im starting to get into this Throwback classic stuff which is really intresting at balanced experince.

But then again Throwback is basically team objective with Only Flag and Oddball.
So that wont be a Day-1 playlist.

I would love to see lone wolves split up in Reach.
Like maybe JUST an FFA slayer, maybe including FFA swat or something.
Then FFA Objective.
I hate going in to lone wolves to bust some heads and getting stuck capturing a hill.

It's atleast something Bungie could look into. I do dislike King Of The Hill in lone Wolves.

And you thought a Game Developing Company can make a game with no flaws at all? I guess not.
I agree with your thread though BS Police.

Too true =/
Spend a few matches in 1st or 2nd, get King of the hill then be back down a rank or two =/

So long as i can whore my sniper I'll be quite pleased. ^_^ Although they could end up changing elements to gameplay *cough class system cough*. While something that extreme is unlikely i still don't think we should rule it out. It would give opportunity for more playlists though. :/
