Why is there only 80-200 people in this playlist?

Is it because people simply can't stay alive, so they play the repetitive rockets/FRG nukefests where lives are unlimited and the least of worries?

Are that many people really THAT BAD at this -blam!- game?

But whats the deal though?

Is the nukefest just that much more fun?

I mean, what isn't fun about trying to figure out how to take out a drop pod of ultras WITHOUT unlimited rockets? Unless the person is always on the losing end because they suck.

Good times shared over Halo, developed by Bungie. <3

This is the main reason.

My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

I'd play it 24/7 if Firefight didn't lag so horrendously.

Wait, what?

I've seen way more lag when 4 dudes are flying around a map blowing -blam!- all up with FRGs/rockets in comparison to that same map in limited.

It's definitely not lag. There's hardly any lag in limited for me.

Lag in any firefight matchmaking playlist can get real bad, and the only reason people play firefight arcade is for credits.

Do not play halo much anymore. Barely ever come on here.

It is not that good to AFK in that's why.

If you're slaying in Limited you'll get just as many credits as you would in Arcade, plus owning the threat of survival. I've had games on Beachhead where I've been in a Wraith and piled up 250 kills. Other games in the Corvette/Outpost where I've logged 200 with only a DMR.

But again, it seems people will take the easier road versus the challenging one. lulz, this community is a joke.

I only ever play score attack or doubles with a friend, because of the horrible lag in the four player games with randoms.

They usually steal your kills in arcade, which I find very annoying, AND NOW FF LIMITED IS REMOVED!

I used to play limited but the thing was you got nothing extra.. This ranking system is based upon credits and you hardly got any so why bother?

Lol like saying people actually play Firefight for a challenge.

Who's got AIDS?

I used to love playing Limited. I do remember some lag but most of the time it was pretty good.

I don't know, this is honestly in my top two playlist types. I think it's because people do not like consequences. I love Limited especially when a team can get into a grove.
