Would you be so kind as to remove some of the playlists from Halo 3 so the populations are not spread so thin? Much appreciated.

Your 'beliefs' mean less than dick to me.

Maybe take Mythic, Multi Team and Action Sack out. On the ranked side I don't know what you'd take out.

No. There's still plenty of people.

Sure there are still plenty of people playing, but there are too many lists. The other day I checked social skirmish and there were 50 people playing, do you really think that list should stick around?

I also noticed that there was DEXP and a 7 on 7th playlists at the same time over the weekend. Wait times would be shorter if they would eliminate the playlists with tiny populations.

That's pretty illogical. By your own admission their populations are tiny therefore removing them will only move a tiny amount of people onto the other playlists, barely improving anything.

Bungie always said, "If half the people love it, and half the people hate it, it's fine. We did a good job."

Well look Bungie, 3/4th's of us want Bloom gone. You messed up. Fix it.

They just need to join playlists together. Only social playlists, though. I'd rather Ranked Playlists be removed than concatenated.

Well it's pretty illogical to keep that playlist around, don't you think? I didn't check the others, but action sack, mythic and skirmish could easily go. Do you not remember when H2 was still up how they had only a handful of playlists? I don't think they should bring it down to 4 or something outrageous, but wait times would be faster (even if only slightly) if there were fewer playlists.

I changed usernames to match my gamertag. My original account, wambo114, was created when I got xbox live. I'm a 2007 kid really!

i think that if anything changes, it should definitely not be in ranked.
maybe social should become: rumble pit, 4v4 slayer, 4v4 objective, 8v8 mixed

I support this thread. I made a similar one a while back. I really expected bungie to consolidate the H3 playlists somewhat after reach came out, in a way they never bothered to do with H2. It has suprised me that they havent yet.

I still play H3 along with reach, i played it today, it really is a different game to reach and still offers its own unique experience on its own merits. And im not one of these fickle kids who only ever plays whatever the new hotness this month is. Perhaps they will consolidate when the population drops even more, although it can be pretty hard to get a game in some hoppers already.

I think there was some.......difficulty regarding shishka recently aswell, and he no longer works at bungie. He used to do the H3 playlists. Jeremiah has taken over that role now, perhaps if he got enough PMs about the issue...(teehee)

what the hell man?

mythic is ranked slayer without the presure of win or lose your rank.

multi team is AWSOME its the funnest playlist, just played loads of games and won most of them.

action sack is just for fun, there is nothing to lose or gain, good if you wanna mess about.

they need to add stuff, not get rid, there is a lack of variety in playlists because of the release of reach.

I understand where you are coming from, but honestly to make H3 better, some of the lists need to be removed or consolidated. With a smaller overall population, some of these options need to be removed. I enjoy all of the current playlists, but I enjoy the game more overall when wait times are lower, and you don't play the same team of 3 people 4 times in a row. :\

Maybe I am expecting this to happen too soon...I am assuming that it will happen at some point, but I think it would be a simple fix to consolidate some lists while eliminating others.
