Let us thank the developers for making a dream come true. This is a huge step forward, a historical milestone indeed. The "competitive" scene - but not exclusively by far! - is greatly embracing the new private lobbies and the features to tweak the games and thus looking forward to Rise of Iron! Lots of people will remain loyal to the game, a huge amount of players are sure to make their comeback. Many many thanks!

NO! Do not thank them for finally giving us the ability to make our own PVP Custom Games, because that should have been in from the start. If Bungie hadn't been so lazy, they would have also allowed us to alter the settings. Instead we get a barebones Custom Games mode LONG AFTER release. There is no acceptable excuse for this, as nearly every single shooter on Xbox, PS, and PC has had Custom Games with alterable settings since the early 2000s, not to mention ALL the Halo games had Custom Games where you could change the settings. Never give thanks for a fixed mistake that was universally requested thousands of time. Thank them for truly new and innovative features that were never necessary. Thank them for Swords or Chroma, but not unalterable Custom Games. Don't feed them any more bullshit, they are full of it enough already.
