I loved the MM system. I think it would a great addition to any multiplayer shooter game. I can't wait for H3's system.

its hard to say you didnt like halo2 matchmaking b/c of the cheaters, thats not what it was intended to do. I just wonder how many ppl that came from halo here have say above a level 30, and other levels. If you hated it, you probly wouldnt have played the minimum of say 80 games to get there.

I think the whole system works pretty well. You have a good lobby system where you can chill with your friends. You can enter ranked matches with people you know, so you can get a feel for how each other play and set up strategy. It requires you to adapt to all the maps. They constantly update it based on how the community feels. And the stats are like no other game. what is wrong with that. I would love for Call of Duty to track my stats, and allow me to sit in a lobby for as long as i want and not only give me 20 seconds to tweak all the settings or else it starts up automatically.

Actually no...I didn't reserve it, and won't until I play the beta. I made that mistake from Halo 2...

And let me just put this out there again...

SERVER LISTS FTW!

I don't mind both of the systems. Bungie just makes it easier.

HAHA you're an idiot.

It's the same thing with servers (ranked)
You go into a game, which takes forever, then you find out it's lagging.

So you quit, you still get punished.

So what is your argument?
Mine is; Whoever has friends can't play ranked with them on most games. With GoW it works fine, because player and ranked aren't much different, but with Rainbow Six it's hard to get into the same ranked match, and player match is just lame because there's nothing to fight for.

Some of you might say "Oh but what about the cheaters in MM"

SAME FUCKIN' THING. There are still cheaters in Servers. The only reason you think you get cheated more in Halo 2 Matchmaking is because SOO many people play halo 2 that the odds are more people are going to cheat.

So let's say this. What if ALL, and i mean ALLL, the halo 2 players traded in halo 2 and played another game, for example, Lost Planet. The cheaters would still be there and you would still be playing with them just as much as in halo.

So in conclusion, I think matchmaking is better, not because you can play with bad players, but because it's easy to relax with your friends with a matchmaking system, since you can jump from game to game without having to restart the "system" if you will.
