Really frustrated with reach matchmaking?
What was so bad about playing a playlist as opposed to voting on the game mode.
Idk about you guys but when i play, usually my first game is bad, until i warm up.
Then i get thrown in to swat or team snipers and basically have to warm up again with the weapon used/game type.

Also the maps suck imo. All of them.
Zealot is heretic on steroids, and playing 4v4 seems so slow, callouts are impossible
Countdown is growing on me.
Asylum is a massive spawn trap,
Pinnacle is different, you shoot someone at the snipe tower near rockets and they spawn at snipe spawn Near your tower.
Powerhouse is a spawn fuckfest, especially on swat, ive honestly died 10 times in a row practically 5 seconds before leaving my spawn.
The remade halo2 maps using the almighty Forge world really piss me off. Why couldnt they create the maps using a real editor. The maps feel clunky and more irritating than fun.
The Cage is probably the worst map ive played.
Im not a bad halo 3 player, and i'll admit that im not the best at reach.
But Jesus it just feels like Mw2 all over again, some games i go 17-5, the very next game vs the same people on the same game mode we all get spawn fucked.
Armor abilities make it somewhat annoying. Invis whenever you want it. Sure it jams up your radar but when you're on the other side of pinnacle with a sniper invis'd whenever you want it, it creates a noob paradise.
What happened to being a better shooter rather than using armor abilities as a crutch.


Also ive heard that bungie has fucked with their spawns, and have witnessed it first hand, Revenge system.
Similar to MW2, you get killed and spawn near the person that just killed you, so you have a better chance of getting revenge.
Guardian remade to the pixel, same spawns etc the spawns arent the same, you kill someone from S3 and they spawn at S1 or Elbow. Without moving.
On halo 3 you kill someone at S3, and they spawn at gold, blue, or green depending on the amount of times you've killed them.

Octagon is shot too.
Same spawns, Same everything and they spawn beside you.

Ive had on numerous occasions that ive spawned into death or an ongoing fight between teammates and enemies, and spawned ridiculously close to the person who just killed me with rockets, only to get blown up as i spawn.

even in Halo 3 terms(no sprint, no jetpack) the spawns are to close.
but when you add sprint to the equation it takes someone 3-10 seconds to come up behind you after killing them.
And ive noticed sometimes that someone will spawn under me or above me, and with a jetpack its just as bad.

the only map i have a huge problem with is the ascension carry over. the map is STILL completley dominated by whichever team gets both snipers first

I don't think mlg will be able to fix the spawns. Sure they can move them around but evenin octagon where the spawns are mostly the same as h3 they should spawn pretty much across from you bur no. The spawn next to you. I think it's more of how the spawn system works rathe than where there placed on the map. Just IMO
