Probably… but again, it’s yet another gametype that nobody is even asking for, that just comes out of nowhere from the depths of 343…
And again, who are they trying to gauge the response of this game mode up against? The numerous amounts of casual gamers remaining? That couldn’t care less about what Halo becomes? Verses the droves of Halo fans that have left the game/series that left because of things like this? That’s not fair for those more traditional fans that are slowly giving up or already have, and it feels like Halo is becoming something else entirely, because the population demographics are skewed and thus, so are their metrics by which they base these game modes from.
If 343 were to cater to fanbase as it stands now, we might as well be playing ranked Castle Wars, Super Fiesta, and Infection. That’s how it feels sometimes. Competitive players haven’t hardly even gotten additional Forge maps added to Ranked play. White Cell is well-made, but just feels like more of the same… Some of those Ghost in the Shell maps were pretty decent, too bad they aren’t supported. What are they waiting for? Some other well-made Forge maps, with more of a traditional Halo look and feel? Again, they are out there… What are they waiting for?
Why is Mercy still a map every 3 games? Fix the ratios… Traditional/Arena players need some additional support! This is what Halo always used to be at its core… now this component of the game is being neglected and Social modes are constantly promoted. We got the aiming fix (never should’ve been an issue) and ranking system rebalancing (again, arguably should’ve never been an issue… this far into H5’s lifespan anyway).
Where’s the new content and playlist support? Some of these issues we still have are complete no-brainers, and people wonder why fans get frustrated?

If you want vehicle kills, in particular Mongoose, I suggest Action Sack, for Prop Hunt and for Mongoose Sumo. Any other vehicle can be farmed in Warzone in a timely manner.

In fact Castle Wars actually has a good chance of giving them as well for Mongoose!

problem is that you usually kill the driver or if your using a sticky they get out
Always glad to see the communitys game modes and maps make it into multiplayer!
Gracias

So a little like Husky Raid with Castles?
Also is the CTF playlist still available today?
I personally think they should add more playlists like this into matchmaking in the future.
I would personally have more fun in this playlist if it was ranked. I literally drop 30 or more kills every single game, with a 2 k/d at least most of the time. Verry VERRYY rarely do I get in a challenging sword fight. Not to mention most people don’t really use any strategy to push with teammates or to run the flag in a creative way (like throwing it into the lift on the very top of the base to send it directly mid map). I’ve seen like 2 team pushes with vehicles involving the full team at the same time. This was epic! Sadly it rarely happens since this is social and most people dont care about that. However, if it was ranked, playing to win on something as fun as castle wars, would only be made even more intense. I’d love to see the strategies used at high champion rank.
Is this playlist removed yet…

I know, it’s a painful commendation to attain xD
Just wondering, for real so many people go just to grind commendations that are rare to get? Wow. I mean, go ahead, do what you want, but I think people should play this for the exact same reason they play in Customs: Because they find it fun! And now, up until it’s removed (and hopefully added to Action Sack instead) it’s not only fun but also easier to find people AND you get points. That sounds like a win-win to me!
Thanks to this playlist I now have The Great Wheel emblem. 47 mongooses destroyed in 2 days.

I agree, I see a lot of people wanting it added to action sack, but I think gamemodes like these should get a time as a standalone playlist for a least a little while. When I hear a new gamemode is added to action sack, its like “cool”, but I don’t want to sift through all the gamemodes just to get the new one. Like, I literally never got to play that snowball game mode this winter in action sack because of how many gamemodes are in it
I am loving this playlist. Lots of fun and great for the commendations. Any idea for how much longer it will be available?
