Firefight was great fun with tons of customization in Halo Reach and after it being in two games its a wonder it was never brought back. In Halo 5 we still have yet to see if they’ll be bringing back Firefight or even spartan ops (which I doubt). Personally, I think its too fun to ignore as its basically the closest thing to a “forge mode=custom games” of campaign. If it isn’t added or even added on to any future game then I think we’ll be missing out on some fun times. If this is the case then I have one solution…
Make a firefight game!
This way you could open a ton of doors for innovating and expanding the mode! If they decided to be, they wouldn’t be restricted by the game in what enemies they could use. Because its on the xbox one 4-player-splitscreen could become a thing! Tons more modes and ultimately options could be added to make it a more wholesome game! Perhaps this “firefight” game could even allow you to crudely make your own missions?! Sorta like the missions in Spartan Ops but likely less linear with some exceptions.
Personally, it would be my dream Halo game and I hope its something many of you would like to see happen to if they don’t return firefight into the main games.
I’m not sure about adding it, it was fun but you could really only do so much custom. I did enjoy Gruntpocalypse, maybe more like that but I feel that the War Zone will be a little more fun than the Firefight that you are use to. Plus I don’t have to worry about every noob selecting Rockets only.
