Breakout changes

Most of the changes made to Breakout are certainly better than original one we had before, in my opinion.

To those who didn’t play yet, here are major changes:

  • Shotgun and Extended Meg Magnum start - New maps are added (I believe), and existed maps had been changed and called 2.0 (Ex: Trench 2.0, Crossfire 2.0). - Full shield - In order to score by capturing flag, you grab flag and bring it back to your base. - Breakout is ranked playlist again.Shotgun spawn is going to sound odd and you might think 343 ruined Breakout. I felt like that too until played it. To me it’s better than SMG spawn. The changes I truly like are the new flag scoring system and going to full shield. New flag capturing system discourage camping in home base other wise lose. The new TTK gives players chance to fight back and stay alive longer in mid to long range combat, which encourages close quarter combat with spawn weapon Shotgun. The new maps are superior to original ones. Probably this Breakout will be my go to mode if I play Halo 5. I can certainly say this is the best game mode in Halo 5. Well done 343.

Are you sure because it sounds like a bad idea but I will try playing it. I wish it was the Gunfighter instead of a extended mag.

Extended Mag spawn is only thing I don’t like about this Breakout. They should have kept standard Magnum instead of this.

I see a lot of people hating this and prefer original one, but I disagree with them. Although I understand why. This Breakout is different from original Breakout and might not be what you expect. Anyway, at the end of the day, it’s subjective. You could like it or hate it. It’s just I liking the changes.

Shotguns in breakout. Way to go you now have ranked camping.

Camping doesn’t work that well and new flag system will lead you to lost if you camp. Map structure doesn’t work with Shotgun camping.

It really doesn’t in the maps on breakout because there’s one wall in front of you.

I didn’t play it yet, but at the first time, Shotgun starts seems a little weird in my opinion and I’d like to see the Gunfighter Magnum instead the Extended mag Magnum, but I’m glad it is ranked again.
343 need to introduce it in Team Arena again.
