Subject: Matchmaking Ideas for Halo 3

If we are what we eat, then oh my God, we're cannibals.

Well, some of the things that I would like to see on Xbox Live for Halo 3 would be:

-Be able to set your personal map and objective preferences. That way, you can play what you want to play.

-Have 64 players in a single game, like BTB Skirmish and BTB Slayer. 32 players per team, total war.

ANY SUGGESTIONS? IF SO, PLEASE MAKE THEM!

Up to aleast 24 Players! 64 Players is too much and 16 players is Boring, we want a Bigger war!

Just remember... I keep it real...

I do like the idea setting prefrences when doing matchmaking. I hate that one cov. level, where it is all dark. But 64 players isn't going to happen. Do PC games even get that high?
You couldn't even system like that many consoles, the lag would too great even though they are directly connected. 32 is possible, many games have that. Maybe a bit more, but that probably isn't going to happen. Lag would be too great. Yousee how much lag 16 people creates, with 64 the game wouldn't begin.

Whoa, hold on. What is the Bungie community's opinion on setting a personal preference for which levels and objectives they play on Live in Halo 3?

Basically, if you wanted to play on Coagulation, Sanctuary, Relic, and Foundation, but NOT Lockout, Gemini, Warlock, or Midship?

You should be able to go to a Game Selection menu and check off those games that you want to play, but leave blank those boxes of selections you do not want to participate in.

I am personally a huge fan of Balltacular on Midship, Laser Blasters on Midship, Combo Training on Sanctuary, and Team Slayer on Sanctuary.

And about the number of players in large scale games, how about 32-man games; BTB, or as one person put it, HTB, with 16 players on each team.

What does the community think?
