This problem has an even easier solution and that is that 343 should make a... CRIMSON, MAJESTIC, CASTLE, and CHAMPIONS Lobby and allow ALL the different types of games (so long as they're under 10 max players) available to play in each lobby (they could even put them right at the bottom underneath the SIX OR SEVEN lobbies that have at any time a MAX of 300 players (most times its under 100 players) which is SAD) That way people WHO SUPPORTED 343 and bought their products can ENJOY THEM!!! This is a perfect example of TERRIBLE MARKETING on the part of a company. You're business (343) is making the Halo 4 game and ALL of the subsequent DLC that goes along with it... right? Then why do you NOT want people to even have the ability to use your products??? Doesn't this say to anyone on the outside that you're NOT PROUD of your creations and that you would rather people just FORGET about using your MAPS (which I'm sure you spent LOTS of money and time creating) and instead just try to be happy playing with the SAME BORING SIX or so MAPS EVERY SINGLE TIME??? Well that is what you guys at 343 are saying to me, and because of this I don't play Halo 4 anymore, and this is because every time I try to get on Halo 4 MM I play about 4 games on of maybe 6 maps which are selectable (every single time) and then I just GET BORED and don't wanna play anymore!!! Variety is an essential part of having a FUN online experience by the way and anyone who says different is lying to you. If I wanted to be really cynical I would say that it almost seems like someone in charge there at 343 is secretly getting paid by some other game corporation that cranks out FPS which are wildly popular but the same game every time (cough... cough Activision cough Squarenix) to INTENTIONALLY SABOTAGE THE FUTURE OF HALO GAMES. In all seriousness though people of 343i you really ought to think about the PEOPLE THAT SUPPORT YOU FINANCIALLY FIRST!!! (as any business model suggests) And STOP trying to cater to people who could not care LESS about the survival of Halo and just want to because they want to get as much as they can FOR FREE! (those people are NOT going to make you any money or do anything to further the Halo community) Anyway I will close by saying that I will NOT BE RETURNING to play Halo 4 UNTIL and UNLESS 343 does SOMETHING (anything) to make the almost $100 of DLC maps more accessible and more frequently playable during my in-game multiplayer matchmaking experience! I am very upset off that I bought into the HYPE and spent my HARD EARNED money on things I NEVER GET TO USE just so a initial wave of NOOBS could get what they want from Halo and 343!!! Get it together 343 for your sake and your fans sake please, gamer-tag CMBZ1

Hey does anyone know why some (really meaning most but trying to be nice) of the DLC Achievements do NOT work for some people? I have been able to get nowhere with at LEAST 4 achievements (after repeatedly satisfying the requirements) and they have still not popped for me. The achievements I'm having a difficult time... achieving are Clever Girl, From Downtown, What's Yours Is Mine and about 14 other ones that are STRICTLY DLC achievements. This is kinda frustrating for me since I will be completely done with Halo 4 ALL achievements once these are taken care of. Thanks to anyone who knows why this is happening or how I can fix this issue!!! Cullin

Dear 343i, I am a long time Halo player and fan, and I have tried my utter best to remain a regular player on Halo 4 (even bought GotY edition to support you guys when I already have the regular game). But lately the community is RIFE with LAG SWITCHERS, and CHEATERS of all makes and models. This is causing people to quit like crazy and go find another game where people don't have deal with a**holes who have to cheat to win cause they are so poorly unskilled. I would like to know what steps 343i is taking to PREVENT lag switchers, and other types of cheaters from competing with rest of us "fair fight" players? I have got the response from someone on waypoint that "sometimes its just that a person has a poor connection and drags everyone else down with them." If this was the case then that same person (who every time I get close to them the lag starts going wild) would not have 25 kills on Big Team while everyone else has like 12-14 MAX. This has gotta be stopped and I know you guys are awesome at making games, and am confident you guys are working on this already, but what advice can you give me to: 1. Spot the Lag Switchers 2. Avoid them like the plague 3. Get them reported and booted once I find one the cheaters Any suggestions would be awesome! I have invested about $2,000 dollars in the Halo games (bought everything that has ever been available for H4) and I do not want to end up hanging it up and not playing anymore because the game is infested with cheaters and there's nothing anyone an do about it. On the chance you guys get around to reading this and end up telling me "there is nothing we can do about this issue" then I have another round of suggestions for you guys: 1. for future games (or patch if possible) untie the armor unlocks and the commendations from a War Games only platform (in other words let the player achieve the commendations though any game mode... kinda like how it was with Reach) that way I'm not this far along and still can't unlock Gungnir Armor because half of the games I play there is some heating A-Hole who lags us till he/she wins. I should be able to unlock commendations by kicking my friends asses on Custom Games just as easily as I would be able to with War Games. 2. Create a bandwidth monitor that LOCKS OUT players who do not have a good connection from playing War Games (if you aint got juice to play... you get stuck ruining your friends lives at home only... but not people who wanna compete fairly and win fairly) 3. Allow people who join in-progress games to quit those games without being penalized... after all looses are a ***** and most people quit because of cheaters anyway... so why should I have to get stuck with them? AND suffer the loss because they are in 15 different places at once on the map! Anyway sorry for the rant, but I love this game and do not want to see it ruined because A-Holes have to cheat to win and therefore discourage everyone else from playing (its getting to be like the domino effect online... people are dropping like flies lately) Thanks for listening everyone (hopefully someone at 343i), if you agree please feel free to add your thoughts!
