Thanks Bungie for doing this. Also this is good for ranked clan battles.

w00t !$! I experienced considerable lag in ALL five games I played in this last night. My team lost a slayer game by 70, because it was so laggy a headshot was nearly impossible. If my lag continues, it'll be back to COD4 for me. Sad day.

*thumbs down* why would you replace tactical with a nonsense game. I like BTB but it shouldnt be ranked its not a game type of skill, just a giant massacre of dead bodies everywhere which is why it should stay social. Wheres the form for this kinda stuff anyway i havent seen anything on here about getting rid of tactical for RBTB. If you wanted to attract more gamers bring back the good games like social doubles and team/social SWAT. It should be more like Halo 2 where you add games on, not add games then get rid of others. Ive seen so much stuff in here about bringing back team swat an social doubles an add infection its unbelievable, but i see nothing about RBTB and you get rid of a good game Team Tactical. You guys should pay more attention to what gamers want and not what you want.

Yer this will be heaps cool, big ranked battles, only problem is that the covies map variants are pretty -blam!-, but its still heaps cool
-
Thats a crap idea. Besides, wasnt team rocket race made for "all out carnage fun"? Wouldnt making that a ranked playlist do the same thing you just described? My only complaint about BTB is anything covies. Otherwise the battle rifle is the perfect choice for primary weapon.
-
Whoever ever thought BTB would work ranked - is an idiot!! seriously, BTB was made for all out carnage fun, ranking it has took it a step too far and killed it!! everybody seems to be avoiding it because theres just no way you can get very far at all. face it BTB sucks and you lot made a mistake thier, instead you should have made some kind of ranked rocket race without indestructable vehicles and maybe only 1 player (per team) insted of 2 (so a max of about 8) I HAVE A COOL MONGOOSE RACE MAP AND IM SURE THAT'D WORK!
-
They should make the secondary weapon an SMG, so it is more like the BTB in halo 2 which I love.
-
Personally I like the RBT, the only things that I would suggest have probably already been touched on. On Spartan levels, Hornets and Scorpions need to be added. If your going to give us Banshees and Wraiths on Covies then we need the others on the Spartan levels. Construct should be added as a map for RBT and Highground should be considered as well. Only having Sandtrap, Valhalla and Last Resort get old quickly.
-
How's the ranked BTB laggy and the social BTB ok?
-
This is great i love ranked BTB but since the launch i am hating it cause it has been so glitchy and laggey so please bungie see what you can do to fix these problems along with the hard time finding matches..VR SIR HEAD HUNTER
-
More vehicles in Sandtrap wouldve been nice Bungie. Maybe another warthog? [Edited on 02.04.2008 6:52 AM PST]

Um how would people be able to play on rats nest/standoff if they have not purchased the heroic map pack??
-
RBT is a fail. The same stupid people that frequent unranked BTB have moved to ranked and now its impossible to find a RBT game with mature people, including that it doesn't lag, you would have to get into the 20s or 30s in RBT before you've went up a bracket from all the idiots. Bungie, please somehow find a way to let the game be able to detect if a teamkill was intentional or just make booting available at 1 teamkill, I would love to play RBT but all the jerkoffs make it suck. Like seriously since you are most likely to be playing with immature kids every round you would never be able to rank up beause you would just keep losing.
-
SWEET! i played a round last night and it was badarse! it was still a little laggy, and i think it would be a little nicer if i didnt have to hift the d-pad to talk, but other than that AMAZING!
-
PSHHHHHHHHHTTTTTTTTTTTT why wouldnt there be ranked snipers over big team battle proves so much more and was like the best thing they every did for halo 2 it would be unreal nuff said.
-
goddamn... Do you need mappack to be able to play?
-
We can finally get the skyjacker medal in ranked!
-
i love ranked BTB!!! I have only played like 5 matches of it and have gotten about 4 killing frenzy's and 2 running riots!
-
YAY FINALLY BTB RANKED. Now they only have to fix the problem of -blam!- maps. Anybody ever realize how awesome H2 BTB maps were until you played H3?
-
make i ttilt toward object tive games, if we want slayer we will play slayer, objective if better for BTB
-
nope, but would be awesome :D Bungie, please give us Hornets and Scorpions in Matchmaking !!
-
Is there Hornets and Scorpions in this playlist?
-
I would like it more if you wouldn't have SWITCHED IT FOR TEAM TACTICAL!!!! WHAT ARE ALL THE AWESOME SNIPERS GONNA SHOW OFF THEIR SKILL WITH NOW?!?!?!?!
-
THANK YOU BUNGZ0RZ!!!1!
-
WELL.. before we all get exited and jump around.. WHY IS THE BTB ALWAYS A BIGG LAGG GAME?? AND RANKED BTB IS EVEN WORSE.. I CAN NOT BELIVE THIS STUPID SHXX BUNGIE??? MAKE US AN SERVER OR WHATTHEFUXXEVER U GUYS USE TO HAVE HALO3 RUNNING IN EUROPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Bad thing'sare most of the time i dont get bigteamslayer and people use the ghost and wraith too often and in normal valhalla all there used to be was warthog and banshee both easy to kill but on covies 4 ghost? and 2 wariths? and no laser or missle pod? and make sniper a play list!!!!! and battle rifles?? NO battle rifles!!! [Edited on 02.02.2008 4:28 PM PST]
