After viewing a forum on 343industries site, I’ve decided to create a forum for anyone who feels Big Team Objective is something they want on the Halo 4 Playlist (Possibly as part of the already existing playlist of Big Team.)
As said in the other forum, If we can voice this concern properly on this forum, then eventually we will become big enough to be noticed, and our needs MAY be met.
So who is with me? Why do you want Big Team Objective in Halo 4 matchmaking
A lot of these maps were MADE for Objective game types in mind. Longbow, Ragnarok, meltdown, harvest, shatter, wreckage, etc. Why is it then that we can’t get objective on these maps?
This is not in the playlist because who wants a game where 8 people camo camp with DMRs, score one flag, spawntrap, kill everyone, and JIP lags the game to crap.
That is why btb objective will fail.
If DMR is nerfed before this then that might change the possibility more
BTB will not flop/fail because everyone likes to piss around and do their own thing and have their own ideas.
And little squads of friends that will end up being relied upon for the objective. But everyone else on the team will support and play like slayer never worrying about death stats.
The whole point of objective gametypes is to work cooperatively. If teams can’t do that, then they’re playing the wrong game (and should go play COD since they’re so bad).
Lots of people would love large objective battles. But 343 are a bit stagnant about any sort of playlist. That’s the devs problem, that made it our problem, and we won’t get what we want unless we moan and wait for months.
Only the winning team will like the gametype
almost the same as Ragnarok
You guys are wrong on many things. OP is right, BTB objective is wanted in a lot of the community. I do, and it’s been in every halo game up to date that features multiplayer matchmaking. It was an important part of BTB in the past.
We love slaying people with 7 other people 343, but we really want to capture flags and control territories for points to with 7 other people. Please add BTB objective! I miss it so much!
Btw, I love this thread, but I think it belongs in the Matchmakng section.
BTB objective is long overdue for sure! Aside from the obvious CTF, what other modes do you feel should be added? Extraction with two points would be nice. Other than those two, I’m not sure what else would work. Not saying that’s a bad thing though. BTB Slayer, BTB CTF, and BTB Extraction would be a perfect constant 3 options for that playlist. I would see this as a welcome change.
REALLY looking forward to BTB CTF!!
The only reason why i dont play btb is because there is no objective so i play dominion instead but that is just power weapon haven it gets frustrating. We need this 343
Keep up the SUPPORT!

In whole, it does not matter how people like to expose the system and choose how to play the game. If 8 players decide to collaberate to all use camo to get the jump on an opponent than they have the liberty to. This scenario will be rare, and I am sure that you are over exaggerating on how frequent camo users get the jump on you. I agree with you though, but thats no reason that BTB Objective shouldnt be allowed just because people will abuse a system or game mechanic.
The systems in the game (a.k.a camo) were meant to be used. If all 8 people decide to camo up thats their choice. It would be a terrible stradegy anyhow, seeing as none would be able to really move. If the opposite team stuck together, than they can deal with the issue accordingly.
Last thing, if what you say is true and Big Team Objective would be “broken” because of an OP DMR and camping with camo, than doesnt that mean the whole game is broken? It is not. Granted what you say is true. Im not denying that camo is not annoying to go against, but it isnt a reason that the game ceases to work to the point where 16 people can fight for the flag.
**I find the DMR fine, except mabey to balance more of what you are saying i wouldnt care if the bloom was increased just a tad to make everyone happy :). Lets try to stick with the question of the forum.
I think that it would be useless to infuse objective modes into the existing BTB because all those people that join BTB for slayer (almost all children) will always vote for slayer. So, it should be it’s own playlist so an objective gametype is certain when voting.
We absolutely need it! It was so much fun in h3. It was all I played! These maps are hardly used by me anymore but if we could get btb back then I would be able to play the dlc maps and such.

I couldnt agree more. BTB objective was never really played as a whole (Rarely). You would usually rely on the few who STAND UP AND TAKE REAL ACTION. It was fun watching ones rise to take controll, and others simply go around killing anything that moves. BTB is a mess for the most part, which is a good thing. It was a dynamic game mode where the possibilites of diffrent engagements were increased.
Dont poke fun at at those who play COD. This forum is strictly to support BTB Objective. Keep it clean so our argument for BTB OBJECTIVE seems stronger.
Lets moan louder than and make sure that they cant ignore us! Keep up the support.

Yeah i know it probally belongs more in the Matchmaking section, and I was thinking that at first. But i want this to be a main topic so its importance is in some essence exaggerated. If this thread gets shut down i will THEN start one in its appropriate place. The only reason its here is that so it catches everyones attention. I dont see anything wrong with having this forum posted on the main though. Its a big issue that needs explanation from the DEVS 
Keep up the SUPPORT!

Couldnt agree more

What happened to ASSAULT? BTB ASSAULT is the bomb! But baby steps guys and gals… baby steps.
Bring on the objectives!!!
It doesn’t need its own play list, but it should definitely be a voting option in BTB. I miss BTB CTF D:
We also need action sack back.

Agreed, they should scrap big team slayer and just bring in BTB with all game types in it.
Big team CTF would actually mean playing ctf with ransoms would work! It’s pretty impossible doing it with only 4 random people

Although I definitely love that gametype for BTB, I didn’t list it because it’s not in Halo 4, soooooooooo… can’t exactly throw that into BTB at the moment. If there’s a second TU, lets hope assault gets added back in. I miss it so much! q.q
