I snuck a look when I first heard about it, and while it got me excited about the possibilities, it was nothing compared to the multi-player bungie had set-up for us.

It’s getting a bit harder to find a match already and my ranks are not high at all. The Beta was meant to test out Matchmaking for more reasons than just playing 3 maps and have the general public comment on it.

Things like gametypes vetoed and player postions on a map can not be properly weighed through custom games. The randomness of matchmaking with a large variant of players is the best way to test out every situtation and see if there are similiarities across the board.

In short, playing customs not only can ruin the game for the individual; but it potentially can mess up some of the statiticial data that Bungie may be processing as well.

Im going to start one tonight with my friends so they can see that i was the first one of them to play a custom game on halo 3 beta.
Also dont you think if bungie was worried about this slip they would have already stopped it? Yeah… its makes you think what they are really thinking.
