Multilayer search function

Something I miss in newer games is the multilayer search function. In most games I've seen recently the multiplayer search consists of choosing a playlist and the server finds you a random game, you might get to vote from a choice of games, and you just have to hope that it's one that you'll enjoy. This is good and all but in earlier games you could select very specific search parameters such as map, gametype, number of players e.t.c. and get a list of results to choose from. To me this seems like a massive step back and also makes large custom games almost impossible. Sure you have custom games but you can't just play and have people join in you have to already have your 16 players online on your friends list and invite them. To me matchmaking is a step back and I would love to see this show up in games again, sure it akes ranked game impossible but you could just have them in a separate matchmaking section.

  • I'm... having difficulty imagining how custom games will even work in Destiny, among other things that we've taken for granted in the Halo era like Competitive Multiplayer.
