: My other issue is that, because this weapon tuning is done via game type.. oh
: man. You're going to need to simultaneously replace every single game type
: in matchmaking, or you're going to have a 4 shot BR here and a 5 shot BR
: there. Not to mention what this will do to custom games. Basically, June
: 3rd could be be Halo 4's equivalent of the Halo: Reach TU; the loss of a
: consistent experience.

Instead of applying updates to the game overall, they're just going to create as many versions of the freaking game as they can to please everyone... again. Just like Reach, there will be splinter groups in the community who only play 4-shot BR games and those who only play vanilla. It's going to the final nail in the coffin to split an already dwindling population.

Customs Night got extremely difficult to run when half the lobby refused to play TU and the other half refused to play Vanilla. It put massive strain on the group, the hosts, and the entire community. Then they shipped a game that removed all the customization options that groups like ours thrived on, such as the Infection variations Pete used to create Knockin' Zombs, etc.

That's my main reason for being inactive for the past five months. Forge Islands sparked some interest, but now that I see the direction they are headed... AGAIN... I doubt my interest in their game will last long. :\
