So loving the game and the multiplayer, but I really want to see private matches added to the game. There needs to be a place where we can customize our own matches by picking the maps we want, picking the game types we, and inviting whoever we want, or even no one if we so choose. This kind of feature is really essential to being able to practice with your teammates, work on strategies, or even just have a fun, relaxing time killing each other. Of course this kind of game mode would need to have NO stat tracking to prevent cheating, but in all honesty I'd love to have this option where stats aren't tracked just so I could have fun experimenting with new play styles and not caring about things like my overall K/D ratio (which I work pretty hard to improve and maintain).
There's plenty more reasons for a feature like this being important to me and many others, and if you're just holding out on it because it's not done, let me be the one to say, we don't need anything fancy! A simple options to launch a private game, pick the map, gametype, and set the game between friends only / invite only / public would be perfect.
Really hope to see this kind of feature soon, this is the kind of thing that will help improve the games longevity quite a bit!

Completely agree, particularly on the point about practicing with teammates. I also used to set up private matches with kids when I wrecked them in Halo and they wanted to "prove how good they were 1v1"...how 1v1 skill has anything to do with TS aside from showing you can aim, I don't know, but it was fun to repeatedly kill/teabag until the match was over and they cried about my having host :)
