Does anyone know anything about or have anything to say about the future of custom games’ customization. I remember hearing something about 343 adding more in depth options, but wanted to bring more notoriety to the situation as the current lack of more in depth game mode options severely limits what is possible when trying to create unique experiences, which is amplified by how detailed the current forge is. Even something as small as ‘Ball carrier traits’ could make a huge impact.

I would like an option to revive teammates in any game mode, not just in Attrition, also friendly fire, and collision. Reintroduce player abilities from previous games, Jet pack, armour lock, hologram, etc, give players their choice of load out weapons would also be nice.

I really, REALLY miss the old traits system that was in Halo 3-5 and would like to see it return. So much potential is lost without it. I wanted to to make a gamemode where everyone has grappleshots, but only the ball carrier can use it. Replace grappleshot with each other game’s respective equipment/abilities, this is possible in Reach, 4 and 5, but not infinite because they only pick and choose a very small set of traits for the objective player.
The custom game settings are an absolute mess beyond this. So many settings are missing in each gamemode to change it from one mode variant to another. There are also plenty of settings that do not work or don’t do anything. Look at Last Spartan Standing. Because it it technically a variant of attrition, it shares the same settings, but the bulk of Attrition’s settings are not applicable to LSS.
The whole thing needs to be overhauled because, from just the user-facing info, it comes off as incredibly poorly-coded to be completely honest
