Is there any chance of bringing Invasion back to Halo?
I know this may sound like a silly question because there aren’t even playable Elites yet, but what if they added the gamemode with playable Elites specifically for that gamemode?
To be honest, I thought Invasion was just about the only good thing about Reach and I thought it was a good addition/multiplayer experience. But, after Reach it was completely dropped. I know this would take some work, developing maps that would fit the gametype and things like that, but I feel like a lot of people would enjoy it. Especially considering it was one of the most, if not the most, played gametype in Reach.
I could be wrong, but I’m pretty certain I’ve seen a number of Invasion type games being held in the customs game lobby using forge and scripting.
From what I recall, the remake of Spire was a sight to behold… it’s obvious a lot of hard work, time and effort went in to creating it. Bravo to whomever did!

Oh really? I had no idea they remade Spire. That would be a sight to behold considering the sheers size of it.
Anyway, it’d be fun to play in Custom Games, but it’d be even better if it was an actual MM gamemode.

My thoughts exactly. I’m a big Objective gametype kind of player, so Invasion was right up my ally. It felt rather large-scale, especially in the later tiers and overall was just really a blast to play.

I’d definitely love to see Invasion return as a game-mode, although I’m not sure of the chances of them bringing it back with Warzone being a mode; I’m not saying they’re using Warzone as a replacement for Invasion, but it feels like they’d want to keep it as it was a large introduction in Halo 5.
I really hope it comes back in all its glory since its my favorite gametype in halo. spartans v elites maybe some other factions if they can swing it, three rounds of differing objectives with 2 points to capture/bomb/etc, and hopefully not tied to warzone. warzone assault tries to scratch that itch but it kinda just comes off as a not as good or thought out invasion, plus i really love the faction v faction aspect of it which it doesnt have.

It’s kind of a shame though that they wouldn’t do Invasion just to keep up appearances with Warzone.
If Warzone is good enough, they shouldn’t have to worry about re-introducing Invasion. I guess it would make sense if they don’t want to pull people away from Warzone, but hey – competition is good. Maybe having two popular gamemodes will bring the best out of each one, ya know?

True point, however, I was thinking about it earlier, and I’d think they’d be able to bring it back as there kinda already is a version of Invasion in the game: Warzone Assault. Now I know, it’s Spartans vs. Spartans, however the base I feel is still there: Two teams, with 3 objections, 1 team attacking, 1 team defending (minus swapping objectives). If they’re (343i) able to keep that baseline, while pulling off the Req system, or integrating somehow in the mode, I believe they’d be able to pull it off without too much trouble.

That’s a good point, I never thought about Warzone Assault. It is quite similar and I don’t think it would be too hard for them to make the changes to make it Invasion instead.
I really loved having to deliver the core at the end. There was always this thrilling mad dash and I feel like Halo 5 kind of lacks that sort of Objective game.
