Tired of Shotty Snipers yet?

Yesterday, Bungie released their first Matchmaking update to Halo 3 (already — the game has only been out for about 2 weeks). They’ve made a few notable changes, most of which make us very happy:
- Big Team Battle matches are now 16-player affairs.
- In the Team Slayer playlist, the appearance of Shotty Snipers has been greatly reduced.
- Now, when players veto Shotty Snipers, the game that results from the veto will not be Shotty Snipers.
- In one-sided VIP matches, the attacking team will now see a waypoint for the VIP they are hunting.
- In Lone Wolves, Slayer gametypes will appear more frequently.
Looks like Bungie heard the cry of fans on their forums and took action on their requests. Aside from reducing Shotty Sniper game variants, they have also souped up Big Team Battle matches again, which will make for some intense games in the coming weeks.
I wonder if we’ll ever have a BTB Rocket Race…
