Subject: What would you change about Firefight?

Go Rams and Missouri!

Firefight is fun, no doubt about it. However, it's not perfect. Due to a lack of matchmaking, I am usually found playing it solo (which is still very fun). So that's one thing I would add to it. However, I'd also change around the skulls.

I'm not saying I'd like random skulls, that would just mean that some people got lucky draws to get far and maybe weren't that good. But I'd love for the Tilt skull to come on a lot later. The reason being, the SMG is one of my favorite weapons in ODST but it's rendered almost useless by the second set. I love using it before Tilt to take our a Brute's shields and then finish it with a magnum headshot. However, after the first three rounds, Tilt comes on and the SMG's only uses are for killing drones and killing jackals and grunts once magnum ammo is out.

What would you change to Firefight?

If you're on my profile, you're going in the wrong direction.
I have some unique opinions that tend to anger people.

I strongly dislike it whenever someone insults a band member/musician/artist, because they're a "Freak". As a person with seven arms, I take offense to that.

I would add forge. Of course you would have to add extra parameters to the achievement list, but think of all the possibilities!

I would probably put a matchmaking for it so you can find some people to play with when you don't have friends. And forge would be a good idea for firefight.

the only problem i have with mine is that it's unstable,[very shakey],so you'd need a tripod for it.

Just drink a beer and everything will be ok

Drop in/drop out playing so that you don't end up having games end because people lag out and your friends can come and go.

I'd like fire fight to be shorter but more intense, similar to the final stages in Left 4 Dead.

Each game would have a half hour time limit in which you would hold out until a pelican comes to extract you. Your final score would be put up on a world leaderboard. With only half an hour to score points competition to be top of the board would be fierce.

Forge any map. Choose where the enemy respawns/spawns and where you spawn.

A search feature would be amazing as nobody I know still plays. Also, the difficulty level should keep going up, not stay the same once you reach the 6th set, it would make those high-score runs a lot more interesting. Also, a bit more variety with the skulls would be nice =)
