Can we please have BTB slayer because nobody plays the objective!
It’s not even because people are focused on challenges is the reason its mostly because most people don’t have the understanding that it doesn’t matter how many kills you have to win a game.
BTB slayer and BTB objective
Please 343
Seriously. I was playing BTB with a bunch of friends yesterday and when we’d get objective gametypes someone on our team would grief the objective and either run the winning flag capture off the side of Highpower causing the match to continue in a stalemate for 5 more minutes or hold power seeds in Stockpile and refuse to place them preventing scoring and preventing more from spawning.
I just came out of several objective games where we won. I dunno what you’re talking about “no one plays the objective”…
At least I can say you have a team who can win. I just played 10 games lost them all. On CTF I managed to bring the flag to our base and from my death screen could see ALL my team walk by it and not pick it up. One was right next to it but and could of picked it up and drop it to reset the timer but oh noooo he had to try and shoot someone.
People are so dense
Count yourself lucky then. Literally just lost game after game because no one would do anything. Hold a zone nope. Pick up a power seed nope. Defend or get the flag no and NO
Report that player then. What you discribe here is griefing and it is a bannable offense.
Believe me I would have if it was easy. I forgot to go into my “recently played with” list on my Xbox and when my friend tried to in game it launched Edge and kicked him out of Infinite lol.
You are right in that. 343 makes it way to hard to report griefers/cheaters/etc.
It’s only really CTF that I feel like this happens but that’s mostly cause going in and capturing the flag from the midst of the enemy relies on a bit more coordination and teamwork than modes like Total Control or Stockpile where you can just snatch the objectives while you’re already out there killing each other. At least in CTF with the Razorback there’s opportunities to get the flag yourself but it isn’t a spawn all the time.
Total Control just feels like a much more focused Slayer which I do really enjoy, with the points better congregating players to duke it out in big firefights. I don’t find the ‘nobody plays objectives’ to be as valid here cause playing the objectives is where you’re going to get the kills. There have been games where I’ve felt like I had a useless team, but that’s basically the reason right there: not that they don’t play the objectives but team is just bad 
Same pretty much goes for Stockpile, but that is the game mode that I like the least for BTB. At the very least, when it comes to Total Control and Stockpile if you have that bad of a team games can end pretty quickly as opposed to a CTF game.
My rule of thumb tends to be that CTF games can be enjoyable when being able to play and coordinate with friends but absolutely infuriating when playing solo.
Seriously? Playing the game how you want is bannable?
I can see total control being slayer yea when the game was over in less then 5mins because my team wouldn’t even go to the zones lol.
I must just have the worst luck loading into games where the teams know nothing or they’re new to the game since its F2P
Yep. I cant even mute players. There are a lot of missing feature that the MCC has and we all don’t know why 343 didn’t have these features for infinite?
i like the idea and it was something fun to play on halo 4 back in the day’s only slayer game type’s and no any objective game type’s.
and most people leave the game faster in the objective game type’s or there turn it in a slayer match also and give notting about the flag or so since there only go for the kills.
if there can also bring back the Heavy slayer game type if there going to split the BTB up in objective playlist and slayer.
and this also fix the problem you get maybe in the BTB playlist’s that people that like to play objective game type’s not going to complain that there game type has been chance in a slayer only game type.
I’d like to see a BTB heavies and how infinite would be like. Lol pelican’s dive bombing vehicles like crazy 
i wane see the heavy slayer game type then this time good heavy.
with some weapons upgrade’s from the campaign story can then be use in the heavy game type.
like that the basic energy sword be replace with the Elite Bloodblade and Duelist Energy Sword.
or the basic Gravity Hammer with the Rushdown Hammer and Diminisher of Hope.
then its become more a heavy slayer game type so that the most basic versions are replace with there upgrade versions from the campaign mode.
and if i can ask a idea suggestion also.
maybe also Team Slayer and Team Objective playlist’s.
that you also get a 4 vs 4 versions for the small and medium maps more.
and the team slayer needs sure also the heavy version with the same stuff the Big Team Slayer heavy slayer has also.
How he discribed it (making the flag uncappable, making it so your team can’t collect the power seeds, so your team can’t win) is griefing and griefing has always been bannable. You should know that, since you say you have been a long time player.
Oh ok. I was just confused by how he phrased it. Yeah griefing that way is a no go. Unless it’s a steak. Steaks are fine because obviously ur already winning
Yeah, if it was just going for the kills in objective, while your team is going for the objective, it ofcourse wouldn’t be griefing. It could be realy annoying if that killing is not helpfull ofcourse, but that would still be allowed. In fact: if you would only go for the kills, but do it while protecting your teammates who are going for the objective, it would be exactly how the game is supposed to be played. If you are the most skilled player, it would even be preferable if you would just keep killing enemies who are going after your teammates, since that would make it the easiest to win.
But i am not sure what you mean with “unless it’s a steak”, since steaks are only gotten in slayer games when you win by 20+ kill difference. How can it ever be remotely seen as griefing when you play the game as is supposed to?
It didn’t bug me. But I thought it was very unsportsmanlike. What about someone using an XP boost in the match who has completed their challenge that required a BTB gametype but now has to sit there for 5-10 more minutes when the sooner the game is done the sooner they can work on their next challenge that will give them an XP bonus with their 2XP boost.
that’s just bad luck. You could also have gotten a very tight game where you would have run out the clock anyways, so that is something you always have to count into your decision to use an XP boost.
