Classic Playlists WILL Return? (CONFIRMED?)

Hey everybody, so this is my second time typing this since Chrome likes to crash, ANYWAY:

This may be old, but I want to feel special for sharing this so shut up, so I was browsing my RvB Collection when I noticed something at 1:02 on the “Save The Date” video on the sniper overlay… BR SLAYER BABY! I also noticed he didn’t have on an armor ability, or an ordinance drop marker on his HUD.

Could it be? The classic, no-class, everybody-starts-off-with-equal-firepower gametype we all love? I double checked on the other RvB video (which also showed BR slayer) and you can see if you look very closely all the HUD elements over the overlay, and no sight of an armor ability marker.

starts tearing I LOVE YOU 343i!
sniffles ok, so what do you guys think?

They already confirmed it but good seeing people finding out the truth.

oh yeah baby…

343i already stated there will be a stripped down version/classic mode a while ago that ships with the game. You will get your classic fix. Seeing how they did with the TU, you won’t be disappointed.

I kind of guessed there would be a classic playlist, I just hope its expansive and not like Reach (says its classic slayer, has different classes you can choose to spawn with).

Hey…I played against you not long ago, when my GT was A Moa Lover…you pwned! (I still won. Invasion, was it?)

Yes it could be great

I think the game without all the AA’s and other stuff could be great …

It’s a small world my friend, I could of deffinetly played with you. Your GT rings a bell. Also, I don’t mean to brag, but I do typically end up in the 1st-3rd place area on the scoreboard (not because “I’m so awesome blah blah blah” but because I’ve been playing Halo since I was 4 and many people who play Reach now are n00bs) so it probably was me. :slight_smile:

Not sure about that bit.

Yes there is a classic playlist, I hope there is at least classic FFA, slayer and objective.

This is why I don’t understand why competitive players are complaining about AAs and perks, they’re in this halo game. If 343 takes them out now it would make the game a lot more broken than some people believe it is.

There should be more threads talking about what players want in classic. Like if they want sprint, new weapons or if they want oversheild, camo and maybe speed boost power ups. Take a note from Halo Reach classic thread.

Competitives still want the game to evolve just not in the particular direction of AAs. Because of this I think they should be talking more about what new things they do want rather than just focusing on things they don’t want, at this stage in development (try again with Halo 5).

Still complain about BR 5sk, that can be changed and should be made to balance gameplay.

I’ve also been playing Halo since i was 4. I just have a crappy connection when playing online (which is why sometimes i’m worse than other times)

I’m perfectly fine with sprint since everyone gets it and it serves no purpose other than, well, moving faster to or from your target.

I’m also going to be playing the normal playlists a lot too, but when I need to get my classic or competitive itch out, I switch to classic playlists, which is why I HOPE they have at least 5 playlists (Team, FFA, BTB, Skirmish, and Multi Team)

That’s good to hear. I always enjoy playing in Classic Slayer. The good old times before we had these Armor Abilities. Glad 343i still cares about their old Halo fans.

Personally I would prefer team doubles rather than Multi Team. That would bring back the good days of Halo 3 for me. Also since it only needs 4 people for a game it can survive on a lower population.
