Perhaps asking for all BR starts in ranked would be a good idea now that Shishka is gone, Jeremiah seems to listen a lot more to the community then Shishka ever did.

I support the idea, firstly, but Shishka left??
What happened? I haven't been on for about a year now...
Anyways, on the topic, fuuulll support :)

they took out double xp....... why would they make an update?

  • 03.13.2011 1:26 PM PDT

my signature is unique and nobody has one like it

I read "Get rid of rumble pit (there's no need for this)" and stopped there. You can't get rid of a playlist that many people play, that has been a playlist since the beginning. Besides, this would bring an end to Infection, Juggernaut, and non competitive lone wolves. Maybe your post should have had more opinions of other players. Not just your own.

Why don't you do any work on your chest or legs or something? You look like a cartoon character.

We need to keep supporting the idea of an update if we ever hope to get one.

No, IDK how.

You mean PM?

  • 03.17.2011 2:00 AM PDT

yeah private message. If anything it might get a response. which is better then sitting in the dark.

  • 03.17.2011 2:20 AM PDT

I can't wait for the day my hustle game don't gotta start this way.
AIM - c.ommview
Skype - Residue

It would be great if they did it, but everyone knows they won't do it no matter what. Just like getting a title update with Reach, 343 had to take over it before that's even a possibility.

  • 03.17.2011 2:23 AM PDT

I don't think it would take long, to give it a little fix; I find it unfair that they just abandoned the game and didn't decide to tie up the loose ends for the remaining fans.

I PM'd him, no response yet.

If anything at all at least take objective out of doubles, as it is -blam!- terrible. Or at least remove oddball and one flag.

And take AR starts out of ranked. AR is a terrible spawning weapon and in high ranked gametypes it gets completely unfair when it is AR starts. One mistake and it's over, especially when people in different countries are playing each other.

  • 03.18.2011 1:22 AM PDT

3 years later and we still have AR starts in Ranked? Bungie, fix your -blam!-.

  • 03.18.2011 2:12 AM PDT

50 in H2/H3? Great, but you still fail at this.

Bungie doesn't care. Heck, they haven't given reach a single TU!

My linked gamertag is Super MarioBro 3, but I'm better known as Memory... Ignore my linked POS.

I love the idea of taking away playlists. That way you kick out all players except those who run rampant in TSlayer and TDubs.. Good idea.

When abe goes to a parties, all the chicks grind with him, easy.

Snipers back in Social slayer.

Objective in doubles was amazing back in the day, but i can't see it being fun on beaner host.

I love team flag and ranked would be freaking awesome. but Orbital is a good map dont be a hater OP

"No way I can't believe this!"- Dr. Eggman in Sonic Adventure

I agree with the double experience to be permanent, but truly the playlists should remain unchanged. I understand the boredom of playing the same things repeatedly but playlists like those should stay afoot because players specifically devote their accounts to such playlists.

disregard video games

Orbital is a good map


No, it isnt good for anything.

The only thing tolerable on it was Brawl Snipers for spawnkilling

-Team Doubles-
Regarding Gametypes:
-For Objective Gametypes
--Option A: Remove objective altogether. (This I prefer)
--Option B: Remove 1 Flag, Add BR starts to every other objective.
Regarding Maps:
-Remove all Sandbox Maps, or exchange them for maps that are good.
-Add Ghost Town for Slayer

Team Slayer:
Remove Orbital and Tundra, both maps are terrible for competitive play in both layout and spawn points.

Double EXP:
Since you guys don't want to keep adding a playlist every weekend, just add some type of permanent DBEXP Playlist which would be a mix of a bunch of the DBEXP gametypes. This game is pretty much dead now, so there's no reason to not do it permanently, as a "for-fun" playlist. You guys don't even ban for exp boosting anymore so why not?

Other:
Remove Action Sack: Incorporate it's gametypes into the new DBEXP Playlist
Remove Rumble Pit - there's no reason to have this active.
Remove Team Mythic - pointless, the map pack has been out for a long time now.
Remove SWAT - Add the SWAT gametype into the new DBEXP Playlist.
Remove Snipers - Add back to either Social Slayer or the new DBEXP Playlist.
Add a Ranked Team Flag playlist - This is a wild dream at best, but I think it would be really fun. Change nothing from how it was when it was DBEXP.

You guys obviously have no intention of caring too much about Halo 3 anymore, so give it an update at least once. Ideally, quarterly would be best, though. People still play it, and it still has a community of about 50,000 people or so. I'm sure a lot of people would like this change.

The Playlists would be as follows:

Ranked:
Lone Wolves
Team Slayer
Team Doubles
Team Flag
MLG

Social:
Social Slayer
Social Skirmish
Multi Team (Could be taken out, or added into DBEXP Playlist)
Social BigTeam
DBEXP (permanent)

I think this would bring a welcoming, fresh change into Halo 3, while fixing a few of the current issues. Feel free to add input, guys.

edit: If anything at all at least take objective out of doubles, as it is -blam!- terrible. Or at least remove oddball and one flag.

And take AR starts out of ranked. AR is a terrible spawning weapon and in high ranked gametypes it gets completely unfair when it is AR starts. One mistake and it's over, especially when people in different countries are playing each other.

You guys made Halo Reachs ranked playlists all DMR starts, and that may have been one of the few things you did right with reach. Make Halo 3's ranked playlists all BR starts all the time.

edit 3/18/11:
Title Update Halo 3:
Add a LOCALE search
Put your global rank next to your level and move the playlist rank to either the otherside or in their service record.


Doubles

No, it is fine as it is, it would just become team slayer with a smaller team if objective were removed. Besides, objective is fun.

Team slayer

I agree, those maps become such bs after one team starts to control.

Double exp

GOD YES! I hated it how they completely rid of D-EXP. I do remember Bungie saying they would send it off with a bang.....when did this happen?

Anyway, action sack should be removed every weekend in replace for double exp. Bring back some numbers which i am sure they won't do, they're trying to kill off Halo 3 like they did with Halo 2.

Other than that i agree with you except for the playlists. Yes, i would like ranked team objective, but it belongs in Team doubles. Permanent D-EXP no, because thats all people will end up playing. Keep it to a weekend only.

EDIT: Oh and about the local search, there just isn't enough numbers for that feature anymore. Plus there is a function called Search good connection.

Yeah, but it doesn't work. I searched good connection last night and got yellow bar after yellow bar hosts.

50s in: Slayer, Doubles, Lone Wolves, Objective, Ranked BTB, Swat, Snipers.

I would be happy with just DEXP coming back.

The legendary ending for Halo 4 is Masturcheef and Arby making love.

This all sounds like a good idea. Love DBEXP.
