24 player BTB

Oh my god the battles of 12v12 players will be amazing. Glad to see they’re putting love into one of my favourite game modes :)))

I’m definitely excited and it looks good but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t hoping for a higher player count.

I read somewhere that they also touched on a gamemode bigger than BTB. I never played halo 5, but I could see a warzone 2.0 with bigger lobbies being a possibility.

Though I’m still hoping someday for a battlefield like gamemode with 100 players lmao. Someday…

24 is pretty limiting for this generation of gaming if thats the max tbh. I hope there is at least a 36 player mode available, WZ 2.0 would be interesting.

That would be intresting, if that happens, hopefully the maps are fun and large. One of the reasons why Sandtrap in halo 3 was my favourite map.

I think the same thing, 24 is really a low number compring other games.
But honestly I prefer a balanced and secure game (anticheat) rather than a HUGE playlist mode.

Though I think 8v8 was enough. A 16v16 would make more sense than a 12v12.

I wonder if this means custom game lobbies will be able to go up to 24 players?

Halo 3’s big team maps are my favorite. Sandtrap, Avalanche, Valhalla, Rat’s Nest etc. So much fun in all game types!

I wonder what new vehicles will be included.

Happy that there will be proper non-Forge BTB maps this time
Though wonder if BTB is intended to be the biggest most chaotic casual mode this time, or if there’s still something even bigger like Warzone

Original BTB maps coming back is HUGE. That alone has me super excited for multiplayer.

I’m expecting them to release more modes in the future but I’m definitely happy they included BTB for release (:

Agreed. My favourite aspect of BTB is always that I feel less pressured to perform well than I do in a 4v4 environment.

Im used to games where its 5v5 or 6v6, 4v4 feels pretty small comparatively and makes underperforming feel worse because unless your team can compensate you dont feel very good.

BTB is where I can chill even if my score is technically negative or not that high. Im not going for 100 kill matches.

Also it seems they got the hint from Warzone that whilst 24 player action was fun, some parts of it arent as fun (and lets not even mention REQs)

It’d be a shame to lose Warzone outright, they could remodel it into something akin to Invasion IMO but Invasion as we knew it isnt returning obviously.

Still, it would be cool.

I think 24 is fine for BTB. Truthfully, the dynamic of whether or not Big Team feels “Big” in Halo has more to do with how big the maps are and how they’re set up than it does the raw player count, IMO. As others are saying, 8v8 BTB has often felt tremendously large-scale and awesome all the way back to the H3 days. 12v12 will allow for maps that can be effectively scaled at 50% larger than the best legacy BTB maps. That should provide a lot of frantic fun and plenty of variety in engagements.

Actually I’d prefer bigger lobbies even if It meant -Yoink- anticheat :skull: I would kill to have a battlefield size lobby in halo lmao

12v12 or 16 vs. 16 would be absolutely BANANAS.

I dug H5’s Warzone a lot but I can see why they’d scrap it. It basically was just “expanded big team battle” and a lot of times even I didn’t care about getting points. But 100% I’d be there if it ever came back.

i agree 100% with you.
and i hope there are also not any forge map coming in the future to the BTB playlist since that was a big problem i got with halo 5 that it was more forge maps then developer make maps
