You take out the only standard firefight mode?! and now all we’re left with is arcade versions.
The only reason people played arcade more was for credits.
Bring back limited, give a better credit payout. i’m not interesting in running around a map for 30 mins with a rocket launcher.
I like arcade mode. You have to get like 10,000 perfections to max out your commendation. You really want to do that in standard FF?
Some like limited. Maxing out a commendation isn’t the only motivation to play firefight.
What else is there? Credits? I can get those in MM

There is limited in Doubles FF!

fun gameplay
I also pine for ODST style firefight. The problem is that randoms online are just too dumb and unsporting for it to work. Its a pure teamwork mode when every death hurts you all.
Remember betrayals used to be enabled in FF, and look what a disaster that was. Because people cant play nice.
Play custom FF limited than… Are you playing for cR or for fun? If it’s fun than play customs if it’s cR than play arcade.
If you dislike Firefight Arcade, then join with a pal and try Firefight Doubles, there is the Limited gametype in there. Or, play Score Attack.
Score attack is for getting custom challenges and maxing those pesky commendations nobody likes such as Riflin’ Through. The only way limited would come back would be if the game complete bonus was eliminated entirely.
When I got RIflin’ Through and Trigger Happy I tanked score attack for weeks to get each to silver. Gold Riflin’ Through was not fun at all, I would have preferred getting it done in Limited Firefight. I’m nearing Onyx Trigger Happy and I haven’t even been trying to get it to 10000. Sadly the same goes for Vehicular, that Grounded and Perfectionist are unrealistically designed to be next to impossible to max out as well as to be done in an enjoyable manner.
Limited may be in doubles, but 2 person is tough to survive through especially on corvette once those hunters drop. On a map like outpost you could have one person on each AA gun, and 1 in each hut. Or stick together to lose less lives.
It’s also not as fun playing custom games as in matchmaking. For one thing your commendations won’t increase in custom, and while true firefight is fun, getting a little something for your effort is nice. If reach’s firefight was more like odst some of reach’s achievements for firefight could be done in matchmaking. As it is some of them can be such as 25000 and 50000 points in a single game. But others such as 200000 and 1000000, as well as completing a game on legendary without dying. Legendary firefight would only really be viable if there were 4 people involved.
i 100% agree with the op

It’s a shame ODST’s firefight didn’t have matchmaking. In ODST, you only had LIMITED ammo for your SMG and Magnum, which meant that eventually, you had to pick up a plasma rifle if you wanted to continue fighting.
Limited Firefight should also include LIMITED ammo, and no spawning with any weapons besides the AR and DMR.
Yeah, bring limited back, and double the cR pay, then half the Arcade cR pay.
I like both. They should have both and let people choose that way.
You may as well play ODST for a good firefight mode. Reach firefight is just a big rocket launching jetpacking derpfest.
I loved limited 
> I loved limited
So did I, but apparently 343 only cares about the mindless, talentless FF Arcade players.
This is just another way that casuals are getting their way. FF Limited was the true firefight experience. Now all you got is arcade because it’s easier.
Arcade is for quick Credits and Commendations. Custom Firefight still exists for you to tailor to your liking. Do you really want to deal with randys with a limited pool of lives?
