Rumble pit needs to be updated. It is probably the most populated play list next to team slayer. And I think that rumble swat and rumble shotguns/swords come up way to much. Most people just quit as soon as the game starts. All I ask is for some minor tweaks to matchmaking.

Bungie should just delete half the playlists and make everything unranked, since no matter in what playlist you won't find games above 20 or even in the mid 10's.

Imo it should be:
FFA
TS
Objective
BTB
Hardcore

Everything unranked so you can find games.

Halo 2 for Life!

An update wouldn't really help those that play halo2 alot anyways as we already know which playlists are active. Although it would help people coming back to halo 2. If they updated it and add new things like maps and new playlists with 10 players on each team i would be for that kind of update but removing playlists isn't an update i would support. Also i have a post very similar to yours, and i think there are actually alot of posts on this subject. Please comment on previous posts first as this makes our call for an update stronger.

I'd Rather Be A Smartass Than A Dumbass

I would appreciate some sort of "Anything" option which will simply put you into whatever playlist there is a game in just so you can play for people who jsut want to play with whoevers there. I'm unsure whether this is actually an easy or simple thing to do in reality though.

This is actually the stupidest thing ever posted on B.net:

Why does everyone hate Halo 2? Maybe its because its the worst game ever next to mario.

I would like the idea of making everything Unranked. It would stop network manipulators from cheating in match making. Everybody wants those damn Symbol Ranks and if there was nothing to cheat for, it would really make the playlist more enjoyable and probably more active.

Wouldnt it make more sense to make it so u can choose the map u want or the type of game instead of the weirdly complicated system it has now and u should be able to sort by partied play or single this matchmaking sucks so much it makes the gameplay boring, especially for someone trying to upgrade their skills on one type of gun or someone trying to just play freestyle and neither of them get to choose and then somehow both are in the same room on ctf ........... why cant it be set up like a pc where u choose servers and rooms

I'm not a halo 2 player, i mainly play halo 3. I just felt the need to play halo 2 and now currently downloading the maps if halo 2 is how i remember it then yes it would be definitely a good thing to update halo 2 one last time, perhaps before reach is released.

Now, finally, in 2010, I can finally play Halo 2 online like I've always wanted to since November of 2004.

Well, YOUR post isnt on the first page. And plese, do update it one more time Bungie, before we lose more valuable players to Reach.

I think Halo 2 should be left alone to die. If you want to play Halo 2, u should play with friends over.
