Hey everyone!
I dont know if anyone at 343I would see this, but I just wanted to talk about some things I would love to see come to the MCC.
Halo MCC is a fantastic game, and that's coming from someone who never got to play the originals(except for Combat Evolved)
However, there is some frustration with some things in the game that could help out, and some that would just be a welcome addition to the game.
1. A JIP system put in place.
Sometimes, it gets really frustrating when you're just trying to play Halo, and all of a sudden, all your team quits on you. Isnt that annoying?
Well, there is a solution. A join in progress system!
Other FPS games like cod have this feature, why dosen't Halo? Now, I haven't played Halo 5 ever since I got the MCC, but if my memory serves me right, 5 did have a JIP, but it was only in Social
Again, I could be wrong, but that's just going off of what I can remember.
2. Map Voting. Okay, I have been following thr MCC monthly update ever since I got the game in Christmas 2019, and I do remember in January 2020, they said Map Voting would not be returning.
Now, again, I didn't play MCC when it released, but to my knowledge, the reason they removed it was because the same maps would be played over and over again.
And to my knowledge, the problem was that every playlist was a cross game playlist.
But, 343 removed those, and made every game mode playlist single game playlists, no?
The problem was already solved. Now, there are less maps to choose from at a time, so every map has a chance to be played, and enjoyed.
Again, imma bring up COD, but they have Map Voting, and it actually works really well.
We have a say in what we play, but its not always guaranteed you're gonna get what you want.
So every map has a chance.
Another thing they could do is make it so that if the same map is played consistently, that map will not appear for a few matches.
Also, to say removing voting altogether fixes the issue of the same maps being played consistently, is factually incorrect.
I once got avalanche 3 TIMES IN A ROW.
And lemme say, I dislike avalanche.
And if people are unhappy with the results, they may be more tempted to quit.
So, if they just IMPROVE the voting, and still give every map a chance, it will be very good, because everyone has a say in what is played next, which is always nice.
3. Less strict bans. Okay, quit bans ARE important. Dont get me wrong.
But they should be eased up a bit.
JIP could fix this too. Still have a quit ban, and punish players for quitting, by giving them losses, but because you're not really leaving your team behind, you're not doing much wrong.
I feel like the quit ban should be 2-3 games In a row. Not all together. Now c'mon, we're all gamers. Let's admit it.
We've all rage quit before.
If JIP isn't going to be implemented, then keep the current system, maybe make it more strict.
But id JIP becomes a thing, then ease up on the banhammer, because people deserve a chance.
But still, give them a loss, even make them rank down as punishment.
That's the way COD does it (I hate to compare COD and halo so much, as they are nowhere near the same, but I dont play any other FPS games. I only play 3 games on xbox, COD, Halo, and Roblox.)
But banning isnt the way to go.
4. Firefight XP. This is a big one.
Players should be rewarded with XP in firefight.
Cod does this with zombies.
If you play in a custom game, you will earn XP, and Dark Aether Crystals, but once you change any settings, you earn nothing.
This is how Firefight should be.
Play on default Firefight Classic, you will be rewarded with leveling up, and other things.
Change anything, you earn nothing.
It really sucks when I have a really good match, where I'm playing for like 2 hours, surviving really high sets, just to not earn anything as far as XP in return.
5. Sprint for the older games.
This is gonna get me ALOT of hate, but I think there should be sprint in the older games.
HOWEVER, I know not everyone likes sprint, I like it, because it speeds up the game.
Sooo, maybe just make a sprint playlist for H3, or something like that? Very minor change, but it would be great, so matches get sped up.
6. Level numbers.
I think rather than seeing what "Military Rank" you are when leveling up, it should just say what level you are. I really hate having to go to the internet, and look up "what level is general in Halo".
7. Pre game lobbys.
Again, this comes with its flaws, I know, but this is kinda important for many reasons.
1. We get to see everyone's emblems, and stats, and other things. Give us a chance to familiarize ourselves with the people we're gonna play with.
2. It gives you an opportunity when looking for a game if something comes up to back out before the match starts.
3. It allows strategizing to happen. You can think of a strategy depending on the map and gamemode while in the lobby.
Again, I know people would just back out if they didn't get what they would want. Again, why JIP is good.
And finally, 8. Prefabs.
Need I say more?
Again, I've been playing MCC for a year now, and the game is still a fantastic game, and I want to end off by saying, congratulations to the team at 343 industries for taking the time to remaster 6 GAMES, and put it in one big game. Congrats on making such a fantastic, no, amazing, no, MASTERPIECE of a game.
But I have frustrations for the game, and I don't expect everything I'm asking to be implemented.
I dont expect everyone to agree with me. But I just think that these things, will make my halo experience better, and make others experience better too.
Heres to one more year of MCC updates, and for infinite to release great.
Thank you 343, you're the best!
