I really don’t like that all of the social gametypes have been 5v5 instead of the normal 4v4. 10 people on an Arena map at once is a little too chaotic, and when playing unranked, social games, more chaos isn’t something you want. A lot of times you’re playing social because you’re playing with someone who isn’t as good at Halo or has never played Halo 5, and for them to try to pick up the new controls and abilities with more chaos is frustrating. That, or because you’re looking for a more relaxed Arena experience as a break from the competitive ranked playlists, or you’re with friends and don’t want to worry about your rank. If people want to play with more than 4 players, that’s what the bigger BTB and Warzone maps are for. Please switch to 4v4 social gametypes.
I agree when it comes to the social gamemodes in arena maps. The arena maps are made for 4v4. I don’t see why we need to add a fifth player to both teams.

Social slayer and Skirmish were 5 v 5 in halo 3. Reach had ‘squad slayer’ tried to fill the gap with 5 v 5.
I kind of like all the chaos. The 5v5 teams feels more “social” to me.

Yeah, I think it worked better with Halo 3 because the maps were a bit bigger, or at least I felt like they were. That plus you couldn’t move as quickly. I just think adding that 5th player to each team in H5 does nothing good, so why do it?
I completely agree. I don’t know why 343 thinks social translates to chaotic.
I think Fiesta and Super Fiesta would be a lot better if it was just 4v4.
Yep, 5v5 must go.
Agreed, I never understood 5v5. Maps meant for 4v4.
