Subject: Matchmaking playlists to change within 30 days

As most of us know, Bungie has ended their involvement in the Halo franchise, and will be handing over the rights to a Microsoft subsidiary called 343 Industries. This transfer of rights will take place on August 2nd, and Bungie will move on to their next project.

But many ponder the thought... "What will happen to Halo 3"?

Well when the rights are transfered 343i will control all matchmaking playlists in Reach and Halo 3, thus they can do whatever they want.

I have a few playlists that I'd like to see go, but which playlists do you think will cease to exist? Maybe the playlists with the lowest population? Or maybe just the ones that are not fit to be in MM anymore.

Discuss.

I'm sorry America is busy helping others in the world and actually making a difference.

Something Canada will never do.

what makes you think 343 will do anything with h3?

Not my first B.Net account obviously

Nothing will be added or removed most likely

Well when bungie stopped caring about Halo 3, right before they were full on Reach nerds... They announced that playlists would be dropped over time. Since then only 2 have left. (Squad Battle and Double EXP). I expect to see more go which is why i made this.

Halo 3 forever!

social skirmish had about 50-100 players, thus the lowest, it should go. Take out rumble pit and put back Living Dead.
I dont see anything else thats wrong with them though

Social skirmish is fine, plus its the only objective only playlist.

Living dead only belongs in a one off playlist, hence Double EXP.

Double Exp is not coming back. thats for sure.

The playlists that will go IMO,

Swat- Gone
Snipes- Gone but snipers gametypes will be added to Team Slayer.
MLG- I think it will go as well.

as for social.. i think action sack will be the only one to go.

  • user homepage:

I would like them to add living dead since it's really popular in reach but don't remove any since there is only like 20 gametypes for xbox live

I have played on every button layout for Halo 3 in matchmaking.
It changes with my mood.

I want squad battle back. Remove skirmish
