Subject: What happened to FFA?

The gametypes suck and the maps have unbalanced weightings. Also the competition either sky high or terribly low. It seems Rumble Pit cannot create good games.

I don't see how that answered, or solved, anything. CE, H2 and H3 are team games but they are more appealing when played in FFA (IMO). Same for Reach in my case.

There isn't a ranked FFA playlist. That's what happened.

Search for skill. That usually balances it slightly better.

Rumble Pit sucks ass with no ranking system. If I'm not playing against 7 idiots, I'm playing against 6 idiots and one other who isn't missing his thumbs. Then, the 6 idiots either feed me or the other competent easy kills.

You forgot when there is a team that feeds one person kills or guards him while he is in the hill.

I can't relate. I'm either on top with a K/D of +20 or at the bottom going -9 by some semi pro. I occasionally get the average joe who is able to give me some competition, but the other idiots screw it up. I tried to go back to LW in H3 and I got murdered by both the players (I'm not that good at H3, or Reach at that matter) or by the connection.

Reach

If you're trying to say Reach killed FFA, I disagree. The lack of Bleedthrough makes FFA games more fun. No more retarded AR rush + Beat down tactics.

Just the way individual battles play out. The DMR's 5-shot, the movement acceleration, the jumping- it's all designed around teamplay and is unconfigurable for, in my opinion, good individual play.

I can easily kill a guy who attempts this with many methods. However I cannot stop a guy rushing with an AR. Its instant death for me.

You bring some valid points. However I wouldn't say they add up for being bad FFA factors. The 5-shot is nice considering it makes stealing kills harder. Movement speed is something I got used to. I don't even notice anymore. Jumping is somewhat a pain, but crouch jumping fixes most problems.

The question is: what do you plan to do about it?

Keep playing and hope they weigh the settings better.
