Re: Damn it, 343i! Enough with the TU crap!

In Response To: Damn it, 343i! Enough with the TU crap! (Gravemind)


: First Squad Slayer, now BTB? Stop spreading this TU crap across the regular
: Reach playlists! How much you guys want to bet that by time Halo 4 comes
: out, there will be no vanilla Reach gametypes in Matchmaking? Seriously,
: this is starting to piss me off. If the TU spreads to Invasion and Team
: Slayer, which are the only two playlists I regularly play that will have
: default Reach gameplay after the upcoming update, I'm done with Reach.

: On the plus side, at least Premium Slayer is coming back. No mention on
: whether it's standard Reach rules or TU rules. Hopefully the former.

I got dragged into a TU enabled playlist the other day, and matched before I could object. I decided to be a good sport, and I soldiered through three games before I had enough. I had no idea what the hell I was playing, 85% bloom, frankly, sucks, Armor Lock was useless (and that's a big point for me because it literally IS my crutch in Elite Slayer, and that was TU game I played). And now I see from their update to Big Team (srsly guys, wtf.) that I was apparently dealing with bleed through as well. I thought bleed through was supposed to be Anniversary ONLY.

I could continue, but the arguments have been done to death. The horse has been beaten so many times there isn't a horse anymore. There isn't even a body. Just an oily stain.

I'm disappointed to hear about Big Team. That was my retreat when Premium died. To me, 4v4 is the sweet spot for team games. 5v5 feels like one person too many. Like you're playing with a third wheel. Likewise, Big Team and 8v8 feels too big. Too much chaos. 6v6 feels ordered, like everyone has a purpose, and no one is just spinning their wheels. I'm happy to see it back, and since there's no mention of TU anywhere around it, I think it's safe to assume it's TU free. If it isn't, I'll be raising hell inquiring why we weren't told.

I'd complain again about their low population excuse for dropping it as well (not to mention their warning this time) but I think that's another horse that's been dragged out too many times. As long as I can pick up the Anniversary Achievements, without having to set foot in an Anniversary Playlist and deal with TU, I'm happy.
