What do you think the mode will be this weekend? I’m hoping for community BTB since it’s been hinted at for weeks…
As long as it’s not Doubles/Snipers/Social Slayer again i’ll be happy personally xD
<mark>Do not make nonconstructive posts.</mark>
With 343’s track record. Something garbage I guess

They’ve had a couple good ones
Community Breakout and Rocket Party come to mind…
All the others have been modes that should be standard like Social Slayer/Snipers/Doubles etc…
do you guys actually like weekend playlists? please tell me why. I’m so confused why people think this is a good idea.
wouldn’t you rather have these playlists permanent? or at least around for a month? even just a season length? or what if they just left them until the next weekend even. how hard would that be for 343? the real question is why not?!
doesnt even seem like we get a weekend playlist every weekend. maybe i missed the memo but seems to be pretty inconsistent. is there any advantage to having a playlist for only one weekend?
i hate weekend playlists. snipers and doubles (for instance) should be permanent, and teasing us with a weekend of it is unacceptable. temporary playlists are acceptable, but they should be rotated and they should at least have longer “shelf” lives. i can’t understand at all why anyone would applaud this effort. this game needs more variety desperately. not just for the weekend, but permanently.
countless people i know left this game because of lack of split screen. even more still are leaving because they are bored and think the game is stale. their friends leave eventually and it snowballs. weekend playlists do not bring players back to halo, and it is not something to look forward to. as soon as you begin to enjoy the playlist it is gone. if i wanted my friend to play it with me but they work all weekend; TOO BAD. (just an example).
we should demand permanent playlist, not encourage these weekend teasers.
I’ve only bothered with maybe 2 of them. Would love to see a rockets one but with the SPNKR this time around.
They’ve changed their minds (again) regarding weekend playlists, which now seem to be reserved for special occasions.
Social CTF awaits us in a new “permanent” social playlist:

I hope its at least something new like Swords with tweaked movement settings like sword party or something
But still I’m really hoping Community BTB with maps like Sandtrap and Blood gulch
Ugh…Social CTF? Where the hell is community BTB…
community forge BTB please

Even though CTF is in Team Arena, it seems you don’t get that gametype much. I know many people have been wanting a CTF playlist and/or objective playlist.

I think if they’re popular and liked enough they will become permanent.
They recently announced an official “343’s favourites” gamertag to go friend and download from right?
Maybe they’ll do a 343’s Favourites playlist, but Community BTB would be nice too.

I think they should remove Slayer from Team Arena (as they did with Breakout) and turn it into an objective-only playlist.
I have no doubt that some people will enjoy Social CTF. Personally, I’d like Action Sack.
To me, the real question is how long it will take them to rotate new gametypes into the social playlist. Every few weeks? Once a month? Longer? As I recall, they went down this road with Halo 4 and updates quickly became few and far between. Time will tell.

Team Arena is already plagued with the lack of gametypes in it, I think removing Slayer from Team Arena would make it more stale. I see where you are coming from, but Team Arena is meant to reflect the same rotation/gametypes as HCS gametypes. Maybe they release a team objective playlist once the update comes out with Oddball. It could be a thing.
I agree, the social playlist release timeline should be addressed since H4 did not do a great job with implementation of new playlists.

To my mind, Slayer already has its own playlist, so there’s something in place for practice and to scratch that itch.
My guess is that they’ll be hungry to introduce new game types (ball, etc.) into the next season of HCS, so Team Arena will naturally incorporate these and provide more variety.

The only reason Breakout was removed from the playlist was due to HCS removing it, not because there was already a dedicated playlist. It’s a nice change of pace while playing in Arena to have Slayer and Objective rotation instead of going into two separate playlists to change things up.
I agree, they are wanting to spice things up for next season of HCS. It will be a nice addition.
Sosial CTF? Well I was right then

Sadly, they’ve said Oddball will be for custom games only. But hopefully they’ll see this thread and change their minds?! I think Oddball, CTF and SH at 30% each and then Slayer at 10% would provide nice variety for team arena. I agree that slayer may as well stay for now since there’s only 3 gametypes within it.
