Someone needs to make a decent MLG odd ball map so MLG will actually use oddball. Ya.

Not to be mean or anything but, was this thread really necessary?

The maps aren't the reason. The custom games settings are the reason. MLG doesn't like the 15 second Ball reset time. That is why it's not used.

lol no. Because most of the bungie community hates ppl in MLG. The Majority of us are nice, but we yell at bad kids in game. Theres a reason that MLG hasnt fully reached everyone in halo and thats b/c of cyber bullying

Cyber bullying only exists because the bullies can't be body slammed through a computer (although I'm currently working on a long winded solution for that......) But yea.... the only way its gonna change is with a special request from MLG and at this time they don't carry much weight in the Halo Community, maybe for version 4 they can get a custom setting made up like flaming feet on a custom power up and so on.

The only reason why there is cyber bullying in the MLG playlist is because there is no sort of ranking or true skill rating in it. So you get matched up with a kid who literally just got the game 3 hours ago, and has never played a halo before.

I wouldn't go that far. The Halo community is the most immature out of all the communities.

Yes, but because the MLG playlist works on the same basis as others in the Competitive section (which is pretty much the same way as Social worked in H3), the trueskill matches are very loose and players can be of pretty vastly differing skills. If MLG was Arena then the matches would be much better. Whilst getting a game in Arena is tough enough and when you do you're often saddled with awful maps, there's one thing to be said for it and that's how well matched the players are in terms of skill, it's on a level with H3 ranked.

Tbh with you i do not think trueskill is in any of the playlists listed under the community tag. I know Reach uses trueskill, but i don't think it is used for anything outside the playlists listed under competitive.
