i was gona call you a retard, but i genuinely cant think of a game who did ranked matchmaking before h2.

anyone?

No, actually for once OP is not a faggot. Halo 2 really did do matchmaking first. This fucking shocked me as well

btfo did any other game after even implement this before Halo 3? I know WoW had arena, but that was only team queues

Yeah go ahead and try to patent react and see what happens

can you actually patent a concept within a videogame?


are there examples of this?

load screen minigames, patent law is retarded and should be defied

>tries to improve fps on consoles with matchmaking and more
>everyone else fucks it up over and over

>people still doubt the greatness of Halo

shame

Apple patented the IOS interface with the square apps. I believe they've successfully sued companies for copying the look too. Should be no reason why Bungie couldn't patent matchmaking

>tfw no one was smart enough to patent oxygen

lmao @ "humans"

Nobody really fucked it up, they just all decided that matchmaking is more important than a server browser.

You laugh but some corporations in the US tried to patent sequenzes of the human genom not too long ago

Because "matchmaking" is a general process, not a specific one.
You cant patent the process of players automatically connecting to each other, only your specific technique.
Thats like patenting booting up an .exe file.

>People still insist that it was more than just good
