Spoiler: Show 343 you have ruined halo, you took a masterpiece that changed the gaming world, that gave so many of us good memories and fun times, and you ruined it. Even your pro players are telling you to stop what yall are doing, and you just don't care, you ask for feed back without any intention of listening to it. I really hope yall wake up and fix a game that is beloved by so many.

Halo 5 has been out for over 2 years now and there is no need for SWAT to be in the ranked playlists anymore since all the Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum and Diamond SWAT players play this game socially nowadays. Social SWAT is not a bad thing. It worked very well for Halo Reach and Halo 4. There was a lot of interaction in the SWAT community back in the day. I personally enjoyed getting to know and play with new people on a regular basis without having to make a new gamertag.







As much as you may try to suppress that comment, what is being said is so true. It speaks volumes when some of the longest standing members of this games community don't want to play anymore as they either; cannot play due to wait times, or are penalised for playing on smurf tags against unevenly matched players just to play a game series that they are devoted to.A perfect example is Online Dater, as much as people may complain, he is probably one of the best SWAT players on halo generally. having amassed almost one million kills on halo reach alone. A game in which the matchmaking is social and not restricted to specific MMR values, it allows the entire community to play together, and in most cases create a stronger interest within the game itself.I too prefer the old styles of halo where matchmaking for swat wasn't purely restricted to your skillset, not because games were uneven, but because the community as a whole was more open with each other. You didn't have groups of players running smurfs to try and hit you off your rank out of malicious intent. people spoke and played more freely with each other as they weren't so focused on their own ranking trying to look like the best. Realistically you need to make swat a social playlist then, add more maps to the rotations to give more variation as playing the same few maps over and over is just tedious and boring.
