Just want to congratulate the Halo community forgers of the maps for Breakout. I really enjoyed playing these and Breakout, thank you. Well done to 343 for taking the community seriously.
Please 343 can we see more of these types of playlists? Community made content is fantastic doesn’t need to be just Breakout could be Arena, Slayer, CTF, SWAT, BTB or FFA.
Does anyone else here agree fellow Spartans?
Infection on has been confirmed as coming in the future by Josh Holmes, we are getting Grifball in February. All we need now is Oddball, KOTH, Territories, etc plus the fileshare feature that I have heard is coming no date as of yet.
I would love to see all of the excellent remakes they mentioned in the daily message not too long ago (The Pit, Chill out, Terminal, Sandtrap). Perhaps they could incorporate these into a new “Classic Mode” playlist without abilities like sprint and thruster.

It’s a swiss-army knife mode with more options than all of those, based around a ball. (Which is what all of those revolve around, three of them are blatantly indistinguishable save a few different mechanics)

Well, if we see Oddball, Assault, and Ricochet created out of the swiss-army ball mode and put into matchmaking, nothing. But if these are just POSSIBILITIES for custom games, and we only see Griffball find its way into matchmaking, then… I’ll feel SLIGHTLY jipped.
It’s gonna make for some AWESOME custom games though.

They’ll probably put them into matchmaking. There’s not much reason for 343 to omit them. Grifball will probably have its own playlist with one-two maps to start with, and the others will conceivably work their way into the other offerings.
I mean, they must have most of this set up at this stage. I’d wager that a good amount of their playtesting would mean that they’re integrated into the current maps, as well as having the big ones (Oddball, Assault, Grifball) set up as presets.
On topic though, I agree, the new breakout maps are pretty good. We need more community-made content in matchmaking.

Makes sense, and that’s what I’d figure too. But I guess I’d rather be pleasantly surprised than disappointed.
On topic for this post for a second, love the community playlist. Well done on the forging, and well done on 343 for recognizing it.
