Well that was kind of a bust. It took forever to find Infected games when you were in a party.. and each game lasted only a few minutes.

Is it gone now ? I've kinda given up on Halo 3. I really want to like it back its so difficult to play in a game that isnt in matchmaking. I find most of them boring. If I hadn't played as much of Halo 2 as I did I would think 3 was the greatest game in a long time. I would love it if they added more games like Infection or as you keep saying Grift, the ability to play custom games with random people. As it stands now I'm having a far better time with TF2. Once COD4 comes out Halo 3 will be obsolete to me. Im pretty dissapointed that I'm not into it as much as I thought I would be.

I had good fun whilst it was up but it was only for 27 hours and we had to resort to playing solo.

Hopefully they'll fix whatever the problem was for next time, they said it'll be back and I think they'll be a big matchmaking playlist update this year. Half the problem is loads of people will instantly veto anything that's remotely interesting or different. I thought we had the team slayer list to get rid of that element :S

Isolation has them, and last I checked, it was on the "rankied" FFA playlist.

Highground has some Mongooses as well. Just splatter an enemy against the wall and you should be able to get the achievement.

In brief, the matchmaking update removed Social Doubles, added Rocket Race, added new maps to both Team Slayer and Rumble Pit, Lone Wolves increased to six players and got Swords, and Multi-Team received some newness too. You can read this second matchmaking update's changes in detail after you make the treacherous jump. Happy matchmaking!

I'd be more excited about this update if Call of Duty hadn't stolen me away from Halo.. but it's still all good news anyway. About time they added maps to Team Slayer.. especially considering one of the maps is Guardian.

To me it begs the question, why wasn't Guardian in the Team Slayer playlist from the beginning? The game only shipped with nine maps, which while a reasonable number, isn't exactly overkill or anything for a game that places this much importance on its MP mode.. why in the world would one of the best maps be absent from the most popular playlist.

But oh well, at least they've addressed that issue. Now how about some free maps? It'll make up for the fact that they still owe me quite a few steak dinners.

New playlist update today and more... FINALLY, we have Variety!!
"We're a little hamstrung on this first update because the studio resources are giving priority to finishing and testing the Heroic DLC maps, but we do have more in mind for December."

What that "more in mind" equates to is a second update due December 18 that'll include the Team Hardcore playlist. Further details on this are to be released in due course but Bungie has said it's "trying to stay true to Halo 2's THC playlist, which means nothing crazy, but a solid variety."
December 18th will be the day that my 360 will welcome back Halo 3 and probably wont leave it for a very very long time :D

This entire thread is a monument to all our sins. And it'll take a bit more than "variety" to get me back to Halo 3.

well its not that halo 3 multiplayer isnt good, its just so many good games out there... and not everyone loves run and gun, cod is a less realistic rainbow six, so that pleases many fans, and alot of people are busy with assasins creed and mass effect.

i personally still preffer GeOW... but thats just me. I feel most games dont punish you enough for dying, and geow does a good job of balancing dying vs waiting for round to end.

For me its the maps. None of them are as balanced as Halo 2's were, and the playlists. And the vetoing results in me playing my least favorite map on my least favorite game mode for the 11th time in a row. Not to mention there are only 3 maps in rotation in a playlist. They can tweak it with an update all they want, but I'm definitely done with it.

Yes, I started playing halo again only because I read this a week ago. Practice. I guess I'll be playing THC all day long, as I liked the BR start gametypes on TS very much (as in Halo 2 it was to be expected). Now if they fixed melee, removed Mauler and nerfed the AR and released some good maps for a change I'd be a happy panda.

The mauler is awesome :O

I hope they wouldn't removed or nerf it. It's terrific.

I actually like the AR too, combined with melee, it's what makes Halo 3 really stand out as being different than Halo 2. Now, on the other hand, I do feel like there is a bit of host/anti-lag advantage that comes into play when using melee that makes it unfair in certain circumstances, but the concept is quite sound. Honestly, the balance between melee, nades, and firefights is what makes Halo 3 different than every other run and gun shooter. Take that away, and it's not nearly as special.

This is it: I feel like the ballance was thrown away in favor of a simplyfied gameplay. AR battles tend to last just for a splitsecond it seems, as most of them start at close ranges. A short burst and melee will kill and it's not fun, you could as well have a shotgun. Midrange combat with ARs are not interesting as well, as the one to shoot first will win, since it's practicly impossible to miss your target with it's non-recoiling and non-spreading huge reticule.

Most of the kills did in MM are with the melee. And I don't find it ballanced in any way. It's just way too powerfull. For me Halo 2 was perfect in that aspect. The weaponballance itself was rediculous but the ballance between granades, melee and weapons in general was very good.

Maulers are just for camping. You wouldn't run around with one and rack up kills, since noone would fall for it and back away emediately when he sees one. People tend to stay in certain areas with it and camp since it's a very effective way of getting easy one hit kills if the oponent dosn't expect it.

As soon as my firends heard of BR starts they got back to playing Halo 3 again. We had some intense matches with BR starts, easily the best I've had in Halo 3 so far. BRs need other tactics and more teamplay, as well as constant vigilnes on the whole map and not just a horizon with the radia of your AR.
