When people quit in Halo 2, I just love the "Please Wait.." blue screen. I wonder if it will come back again ? Other games like "Blazing Angels" seemlessly let people drop without seeing this screen, that's terrible ! I want the little moment of silence when the host drops.

The matchmaking feature, what a true pleasure that is! To be assigned to game types you don't want to play with maps you don't want to play on is a special treat. This of course brings back our favorite "Please Wait.." screen when people quit because it's not what they wanted. So please Bungie, keep telling us how we want to play the game, it's to much pressure for me to handle. When they didn't have this feature in "Perfect Dark Zero", I almost cried, the strain of defining everything they way I wanted it and anyone could join was just too much.

Oh and dont' keep track how many times people quit, the only thing you could do with it is lump all quitters together in your matchmaking so quitters would play against other quitters. But hey what good is that ??

My last and absolute favorite features.. please I beg you, don't make the grenades work when you throw them just before you die! The fact that they stop working just because I died adds to the realism of the game! And last but not least, the melee's, the fact that I can pump 20 bullets into someones head and they don't die but they melee me once and I do just puts me into orbit...I can't wait for Halo 3..

(where's my blood pressure medicine....)

Yeah, I know, I was "fighting" sarcasm with sarcasm.

The life and world you see is just a cheery toped and sugar coated version. You know nothing of Hell. Unknown to you and everyone around you is that there is a war going on that you can't see. Now that you know, you are part of it. And if you are going to survive, your going to need to learn to pull the trigger.

i didn't mind the blue screen. there are things going on behind the sceens that we can't really see

Help a brother out. Click on the referral link, sign up for a fun game, log in once for the next couple of days, then you never have to think about it again!

And yes. I understand how pathetic that is, but nobody reads these things anyway... right?

I personally see nothing wrong with the Matchmaking feature. It would be cool to include the public listing of custom games like you 'stated', but it wouldn't be easy to rank and would be too easy to cheat or ruin the game in my opinion.

the only point i agree with is putting quitters together, great idea.

i cant believe you can moan about blue screen, do you expect it to seemlessly change the network server in a second? idiot.
