Subject: Well heres the first actual important question we might get to decide

Technically GRAW does have a form of MM, even though they are user created games you can still be randomly thrown into them.

Yeah, but someone is in charge, and thats cheap.

I finaly got into a ranked game that I dident get droped from within the first 10 seconds, and I started doing really good, I had like 10 kills, then the host, ON THE OTHER TEAM, booted me.

WHAT THE HELL?

I WISH THAT WAS IN HALO 3.

Okay, so if GRAW had Matchmaking, the gameplay would be differnt? Listen to yourself.

yup.
If GRAW had MM, the online gameplay would be different, end of story.

Those are things that you have to deal with people online (Unfortunately there is no way to electracute -blam!-s via your console). I personally see that as the biggest flaw in GRAW next to how long it takes to get into a game that hasn't started. In my opinion these user created games should be unranked or, have a seperate form of rank. Maybe give the guy that boots players alot his own symbol so that people don't join his games.

server browser for unranked games, opti-match for ranked. Then you can browse wich server has the level, gametype, kill limmit ect. that you like.

I see what you were saying earlier, and somewhat agree with you- I just don't necessarily agree with the assertion that people on Halo 2 MM are "forced to play"- MM is a tool that allows people to find games- they don't HAVE to do anything. While I would like a custom games filter, I feel like in the end it would be the same frustrations that I have to deal with when I join a a friend of a friend's custom games- nobody can agree on the gametype, people are shouting and screaming about playing Hide and Seek or Tower of Power, etc. I just think it would be that on a massive scale. I think MM and Customs works just fine.

I say both, with ranked and unranked servers.
Maybe we should be able to host our own servers as well.

Agreed, but some snazzy new 360 upgrades to the entire system would be sweet.
And i think a custom game searcher would be nice as well.

Oh, and about the original post: no matter what or how you think it should be, Bungie gets the final say on how it goes, end of story.

It IS Bungie's decision.

This is a question that I believe needs to be chosen by Bungie fans and not Bungie themselves. If Halo 3 players choose one thing this should be it.

How do you want to find games on Xbox Live?


Yes, why should Bungie get to decide? Halo 2's only the most played Xbox Live title in the history of Xbox Live, despite being nearly two years old and competing against an entirely new console and its steadily growing library.

Yeah, clearly Bungie had no idea what they were doing.

All in all, the party system kept me comming back.

Its simply pure genius, kudos to all the guys that came up with that.

And Shishka, what are you doing up at midnight, dont you have work tomorrow?
