Not trying to sound whiny but it's getting pretty annoying to have to play against parties of 8 who have communication with one another as well as one or more inheritors..... Is there any way for 343 to filter it so parties of 8 are predominately matched up against other parties of 8? Does anyone have ideas that will limit the damage these games do to my KD other than all out quitting or choosing a different game type?

Or you could just make your own team, they're just playing BTB as it's suppose to be intended, why should they be punished for longer search times?

If you want a fix for this. Tell 343 you want halo 4 to have ranked playlist. Parties match parties. It's good for us, but its even better for the people who just want social fun.

just sign out while still in the lobby. you wont get quit banned. I sign out of more games than I play...if the map doesnt have a laser on it or if its a bunch of inheritors (which rarely happens) I'm outta there and on to the next match. Takes about 10 seconds to sign out/sign in and be looking for the next match...

Lol, seriously? That's one of the reasons why you sign out?

Thats the only reason most of the time. I'm sick of hemmorage, spire & boneyard (wont play graveyard either - even though it has a laser)

Really? Grow up.

OT: Nah, thats alright. Maybe next time, don't search solo.

This is why I've always thought CoD Mercenary playlist was a good idea.

Yes but having those who're playing Halo "as it's supposed to be played" against those who don't gets really unfair, mostly by communication advantage, besides some people just like playing solo in big games

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...

Just because you're playing on your own and not in a party doesn't mean you don't have communiction. Think on that OP.

As someone who frequently plays BTB in a big party, I feel like I'm punished too when we play against a team of randoms who all quit or we beat them by 50 points. The competition should be organized proportionately to your own, whether you're going in solo or with a party.

Well, putting party restrictions in a not-so-competitive playlist is just dumb.

Don't expect that anytime soon, maybe H4, but not now.

Just do this if you foresee terrible outcomes. I use it if the same lame map is repeatedly chosen, after I just get sick of playing it.

I'm not sure If it's faster, but the menu gives you the option to go to Halo Waypoint without signing out. Just return to Reach after.

Life is a journey, if you spend all of it with your nose in your map, you may miss some of the best parts.

You search BTB as a random? Why?

If you assign every letter of the alphabet a number, a is 1, b is 2, etc., and you take all of the values of the word "MATH", and add them, you get 42. So math is the meaning of life, the universe, and everything.

Tell that to the iNf4MouS's. They will change your mind when you fight them and go negative 50.

Large problem.

Tru7h. C4RN4GE. Bungie.

You are your own solution, find a team to play with.

Less people play Reach than played Halo 3, so the chances of finding teams is increased.

People quit because there is no incentive to stay like there was in Halo 3, (You lost Exp if you quit). You don't even lose credits if you quit in the first minute of a game.

Playlist ranks served as a decent way to match up appropriately, whether it is teams or randoms.

This is a competitive game, you will have this 'problem' in any playlist.

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

lol u srs

I've beaten Rooster, he's not good at all outside of BTB (or even within it, every time my party would match his it would get ugly).

Never even heard of Infamous's so idek

Making Rooster go -7 in squad when I wasn't even searching with a good team

Ok. Well nevermind about R005TER. I forgot I have never fought him outside of BTB. I forget that is how he gets all his kills. But, if you EVER fight the Inf4mous's be prepared to get spawn killed like nothing flat. But the Inf4mous's are Invasion noobs. I have, however, found them in Living Dead and fought them. I have been successful in killing them in Living Dead, but even there they put up a challenge. It's just best not to even find them or else.
