12 Man Warzone Is Returning

So in the new community update, its been confirmed that 12 Man Warzone will return. The only downside is that it’ll be coming back a few weeks from now. They said they’re working on making a 12 Man Warzone playlist, but that they ran into some bugs doing this. I can’t help but be just dumbfounded here. It’s like what’s so hard about this? You guys have literally done this in the past back when Warzone and WZ Assault had 12 Man Teams so why is it so hard now? Also wouldn’t it have been easier and more logical for you guys to keep Warzone and WZ Assault the way they were and make a separate Warzone Playlist where you can only have 6 people instead of cutting Warzone down to 6 people? I’m no programmer but just using logic, I’m sure it’s definitely easier to just make a Warzone Playlist with a max of 6 people while leaving the original Warzone and WZ Assault unchanged instead of doing what you guys did.

I’m so glad you’re bringing back 12 Man Warzone(it never should’ve been removed in the first place), but doing all this just seemed like a lot of extra work when you could’ve just left Warzone and WZ Assault alone while you guys worked on a 6 Man Warzone Playlist. You guys pretty much screwed with the Warzone Community when you could’ve did a much simpler solution without screwing over all the big Spartan Companies that love Warzone.

That’s good to know too bad my clan is inactive :frowning:

They have been inactive for ages, just after summer. Really annoying, The change didn’t help either.

Damn. Sorry to hear that man. I have a crapload of people in my company but there’s only like a few who’s active and some of the main guys don’t get on as much cause they had stuff to do in their lives. When we had our team together though, we owned Warzone lol. No team could beat us. XD

Yeah large communication operations work, we are close to the achilies body, after that I might join one of the Halo customs clans.

Yeah we’re getting close to the Achilles Armor too. Just a couple more things and we’re done. We don’t even care about getting the helmet. After we get the armor, we’re still gonna play Warzone though.

The helmet looks cool but doesn’t compete with the mark 4 or reach helmets. Still better than some of the weird helmets though.

I think having a seperate 12man playlist is mistake. It just guaruntees that anyone who plays with a full party will have terrible wait times, terrible connections and (if they get a match at all) play the same people over and over.

instead of having a seperate 12man playlist, they should have a separate small party playlist. Parties of 1-4 could use this seperate playlist, and parties of 1-12 could use the normal playlist.

This way, everyone could find matches quickly and with good connections, and people playing alone don’t have to risk being greatly outmatched.

What… you mean no group of random solo players could beat an organised team? What a surprise.

Although I’m pretty sure another decent team could. In fact, your 56% win value would show that quite a few people have beaten you already.

This idea seems like it would have a better setup than a full 12 man team only playlist. The wait time will be long for those matches especially if you have a team of more than 6 but less than 12 you wouldn’t be able to play in any other matches. Maybe if they have a 6 man team and below and then a 7-12 man team list?

It’d be a good idea if Halo has the population to support it. It’ll get rid of a lot of the teams in regular Warzone, and just pit them against each other in a separate playlist.

I doubt many solo players will want to play against teams though, which is why I doubt that the playlist will work. What may happen is that we see teams of 10 and 11 going up against teams of 12, and there will be some lopsided matches. And probably some long waits for a game while it searches for another team.

A lot of Companies are Inactive from Halo 5 regardless of that 6 man cheese. The population won’t be that good…

cool. i wont play it. and after the first couple days i doubt anyone will. but its good they finally are bringing the option back

What are you talking about? The wait times wasn’t an issue before they changed it. It was because of the solo players not willing to team up and use their mics to communicate and organize is why it was changed. Imo solo players ruined WZ with they’re crying I played solo and found a team through communication with the mic
