Breakout is the worst game mode, ever.

Breakout is the Halo equivalent to COD’s Search & Destroy.

Personally I love the game type. Sure it could use some tweaking, but its a good start on a fresh new game type.

Breakout is easily my favorite mode in the game, but it really doesn’t seem to fit with the objective based game modes in the arena playlist. They should bring back VIP and Oddball to replace it.

Do you suffer from something that is called hardening cerebral cortex ? The breakout Game type can be also found on the regular Arena playlists, so he does not have the ability to chose to play it or not.
He is right. It’s fine when Breakout has its playlist. I can see why is a nightmare when it is in the “parent” Arena playlist.

Another example of 343’s innovating technique!

You. I like you.

Breakout is awesome!

Though I agree it (nor slayer) should be in that game mode. Oddball and KotH or something to replace it.

Breakout is so crazy fun! Easily one of my favorite gametypes.

Or he could go play FFA or Slayer.

Yeah, I think it should just have it’s own playlist.

I imagine it would be fun to play with a coordinated team, with randoms, hell no.

Its not a casual playlist, its pretty much the competitive playlist in arena.

The gameplay is much more casual. To think “We need this last cap right now”, against “With this one BR duel, we either lose, or win.”

It slows down gameplay, making it become hide and seek. Especially when the person that has camo is hiding with a shotgun, facepalm.

actions are expressed with “*” so it would be facepalm if you dont do that, people like me will assume you are saying facepalm.

Also i think breakout it great, nice to have VARIETY in team arena, after playing slayer, slayer, slayer, CTF, slayer, CTF, CTF, CTF it’s nice to play something else

With a team of people you know and have voice chat with it is good as it needs coordination. With randoms it would be very annoying. Arena does need an objective only playlist, although at the moment that would mean just CTF.

I like the standalone Breakout but find that in Team Arena people will quit leaving teams unbalanced, very frustrating.

I don’t know why it has to be in the Team Arena playlist when it has it’s own playlist? Maybe it was an oversight, it was originally just going to be in Team Arena but it was later made into it’s own playlist without taking it out of Team Arena’s rotation?

And there was a modded gametype in Halo 4 called VIP Slayer, where there was a VIP on each team, and if you killed the VIP, then the enemy team can’t respawn. If you didn’t kill the VIP, then the enemy would keep coming back. The goal was to kill the VIP, then wipe out the enemy team, while protecting your own VIP, and if your own was killed, then staying alive. I would really like to see that come back in some official capacity. I think it’s similar to a Gears of War gametype but I can’t remember the name of it at the moment.

Dude Really don’t play it…it’s that easy.
I like the idea of breakout imo it has big potenzial it just need some adjustment.
CQC is a bit to strong…way to strong.
No start granades so ppl had to collect em first.
Maybe less ammo to force players for precision.
One possible revive(like in campaign surely no OS).

I actually enjoy breakout the most in H5. I just really hope they bring grifball and zombies into the game. The playlists are very weak.

ok… literally the only unique thing about breakout is that its got the Limited lives, which has always existed as a custom game option FOR EVERY GAME MODE…

the taking a neutral flag to the enemy base? well son that was known as Invasion-CTF back in the day…

so literally… its not even a gametype on its own… just a “Hardcore-leetz-pro” BS painted version of a gametype that has been in the halo series since before Xbox live was even online…

the maps are the only thing even remotely interesting and they are just forge maps to begin with…

so “Breakout” as its called is nothing but a ploy to appeal to a specific crowd…

its actually really sad… i have no problem with 1 life gametypes… hell thats the only gametype in some multiplayer games… I used to play world of tanks for instance and no matter the objective, you only got the one life…

breakout is a Playlist… not a gametype like 343 is trying to pretend it is…

I actually find Breakout to be very enjoyable, it’s tense and challenging but also quick so you can blast through a few games. Once I discovered that the Magnum is actually a really good gun in this game I started to get kills.

It’s a fair point though, it shouldn’t be in the other playlist, that makes no sense. And you can’t just keep quitting modes you don’t want to play, then you’ll get banned. It shouldn’t be in there.

It’s pretty -Yoink- to put it in team arena, it completely goes against the competitive fast-paced nature of the playlist. Remove it from Team Arena, keeping it contained in its own playlist is fine.
