According to Bungie, “The first matchmaking update for Reach will occur in early October…” With this first round, bug fixes and balance issues will be addressed along with more game types and Forge maps. But perhaps the best part of the update will be the inclusion of Co-op campaign matchmaking.
It’s not as if the large majority of us wish to play Halo’s campaign with complete strangers but the option is a welcome addition to the suite. Bungie states that the game neglected to ship with Co-op matchmaking by design, to protect us from spoiling our campaign experience. They also say that the “…matchmaking will not take in to account your current campaign progress.” So just make sure you complete your current campaign before jumping in to the new playlist.
What do you think? How anxious are you to delve into campaign matchmaking with strangers?
