Confirmed Playlists?

What playlists/game modes do you want to see in Halo 5: Guardians, Spartans of Halo Waypoint?

That’ as well as Team Slayer, Warzone, Breakout and Stand Off that is.

Personally I want the following as standard…
Rumblepit
Big Team Battle
Invasion
Dominion
Swat
Team Snipers
Ninjas
Team Regicide
Action Sack
Invasion
Head Hunter
Extraction
Oddball
Grifball
Ricochet
Classic (No Spartan abilities, sprint, clamber)

Do you agree, what have I missed?

Cannot wait until I get my hands on this game again since the beta I wanted more.

I totally agree with it. Although 343i isn’t one to get a huge amount of playlists goin’, so I bolded some of the ones that are similar enough to be in one playlist

i need Multi-Team

Team Slayer
Big Team battle
Team objective(oddball,koth,extraction,ect)
Rumble pit
Capture(ctf,dominion,ect)
Swat/Breakout
Mix team rotation(doubles,multi)
Action sack
HCS(classic,pro,ect)
Warzone

More than 10 is unlikely, this list is perfect

I’m curious as to how Invasion would work. In Halo Reach, it was a Spartan vs Elite game mode on specifically designed maps, there’s no elites in Halo 5’s MM and I highly doubt that out of the number of maps between arena, Warzone and breakout maps that they would specifically design more for Invasion. I don’t see it working at all.

Invasion isn’t going to be in Halo 5 unfortunately. This was confirmed a few months ago.

Probably something like…

  • Free For All/Slayer
  • Team Slayer
  • Team Objective (CTF, KOTH, Oddball, etc.)
  • Breakout
  • Team Doubles
  • Halo Championship Series
  • Warzone
  • Action sack/social games/grifball

Like this maybe?

Alot of really good ideas, but too many would splinter the community, keep it simple…
-Arena; Rumble, Doubles, Team Slayer, Objectives, BTB, Breakout
-Warzone; Possibly PvP Invasion style, possibly PvE Firefight style and regular warzone
-Weekend Hopper

Pretty much this

For me, I’d like this layout:

Ranked:
Team Slayer
Team Objective (CTF, Assault, Oddball, Ricochet, King of the Hill, Territories)
Breakout
Rumble Pit
Doubles
BTB
Swat
Grifball (added post launch)

Social:
Warzone
Team Skirmish (5v5 Slayer and Objectives)
FFA
Action Sack (added post launch)

Rotational:
Infection
Multi-Team
Team Oddball
Rocket Race
Snipers
Fiesta
Duel (1v1)
12-FFA

Anything else is just welcomed extras.

Infection/Flood as a permanent playlist. Halo Reach is almost 5 years old, and a large portion of the population online plays Infection. Also, MCC matches for Infection are almost instantaneous. They should also model after Reach’s Infection, and not 4’s.

Why is BTB and Grifball ranked?

BTB could be either ranked or social, but Grifball I feel is a pretty competitive gametype by nature. Either way, I’m happy. I just said what I’d prefer. BTB can be fun to mess around in, but I feel at times it suffers from people quitting etc. because it’s not ranked.

Reach’s compared to 4’s was so much better. 4’s was honestly overdone and a let down

I know a man can dream though ={

I hope there are more.

I agree quitting really annoys me and spoils everyone’s enjoyment.
