So basically... Waypoint is pro-vanilla?

Posted by: Sentox6
Waypoint isn't pro-anything so much as they're just anti-intelligence.

OH GOD I KNOW

IT HURTS SO BAD

Because it's a temporary fix to those complaining about there not being a DLC only playlist. They will probably fix it with the rest of the playlists later on.

Planking : Parkour for people who don't move very fast.

Because 343 knows if it had the TU settings, no one would play it, like the rest of the TU settings playlists.

Forget it man, and get with the countdown. Shake this square world and blast off for Kicksville.

Reach host ranking algorithm: (a*quit_percentage + b*isMexican + c*(1/KDR) + d*hasGuest) * 100
where a > b = d > c

Yeah, because all the kids have stopped playing BTB now that it's TU settings, amirite?

Squad dlc is team slayer on dlc maps.. It's going to fail and be removed then people are going to complain again that their are no dlc playlists because 343i made a horrible one and it didn't do good.

That's your excuse? The whole game has a "marked decrease" from last night. Less people = less populated playlists. The playlists aren't going to be the exact same every night even with no changes, some nights they will be less some nights they will be higher.

Hey, I'm only throwing the same "people don't play it, so it must be bad" logic on it that you guys like to apply to Reach. After all, these are the settings the majority wanted, so I figured there would be in increase, not only in players but playlist population in the lists featuring the TU now.

Granted it's only been 24 hours. If you'd like, I'll keep track further. I can almost promise a steady decline, while the playlists retaining default settings see an increase in population.

Better question, why did they make a DLC playlist lack Invasion, Objective, and all the other gametypes needed for the stupid achievements.

I agree though.

Wasn't aware that was possible, oh dear..

fear me, for i am pro sauce

why would they do that?

100% bloom and original AL suck

this game does need sword block though, sprinting sword man is just stupid, there is no counter unless he happens to be a 1 shot or you have rockets/sniper/shotgun, any other time, its just certain death

If you can't control Sword, you should die.

If you can't control niether Shotgun/Concussion/Rockets or ANY other power weapons NOR can you kill the Sword wielder through teamwork, then you DEFINITELY don't deserve a crutch such as Sword Block. It doesn't belong in this game.

Yeah, played that yesterday...it sucked!!

I'm really disappointed that there is no objective games to be found. I was looking forward to playing some CTF on Highlands or some Invasion on Breakpoint.

because breakpoint is such agreat map

lol no dlc will fail because 100% bloom is stupid and random.

My thoughts exactly. I was pretty excited about the new play list but 343 totally failed by adding bloom.

Not all the playlists have TU settings in yet there doing it bit by bit not all at once so deal with it

Uh no, we don't want to deal with it. We want it changed. I was pretty disappointed that it had regular settings.
