I’ve been playing a lot of warzone assault lately and noticed when playing on array our core was suddenly destroyed. I went to theater mode and found people are now using a cheese move to jump into the rear sniper tower and infiltrate from behind. I kill them whenever I can but I can’t defend the front lines when I do. I was wondering if anybody else has encountered anybody using this tactic and what you’ve done to combat it.
Dealt with this a few times, honestly as long as you have a few teammates in the core room you don’t have to worry too much about the players who sneak in the back way, unfortunately there’s no way to combat the ones who bum rush with explosive weapons short of a perfectly timed meatshield jump
A single person can hold off thay entry point by shooting them as they come through the windows.
That entrance has always been used.
You’re just now noticing this? The group I play with have been using this entrance since release. It’s really nice to put on camo and sneak in that way, blow up tanks hiding in the back of the core guarding the entrances, and all other methods of mayhem. lol
I don’t see how using this is a cheese move at all. It’s part of the design. Learn to defend it.

Yeah, I’ve been the only one defending that point for a couple games now. It really sucks when you have to go back for ammo.

Take the ammo off the people you kill?

I haven’t encountered it till a few days ago, and its not part of the design if you’re meant to attack from the front. And I call it a cheese move because people can’t take the front so they have to manipulate the game to their advantage.

I’m using reqs like rockets and boltshots for commendations so I end up running out of ammo.

It’s meant to be accessible, hence why there is a shield door in the tunnel that they can’t pass through until armory is captured. Works on both sides during normal warzone as well.

Yeah, I’ve had to fight 3 on 1 a couple times, I was able to take 2 usually but the third gets me with low shields.

On Apex 7 you can access that area of both bases, it’s definitely designed purposefully.

I don’t mind it for regular warzone, but for assault I feel it should be blocked off. You’re supposed to attack from the entrances at the front. Not run to the back and jump in from behind.

I like it the way it is because it actually plays a little different. All the other maps feel the same when you get to that point.
It may play differently, but when you lose a couple times because of this strategy, It doesn’t make it fun to play when you’re defending.

I feel the same as BluesyDolphin, I like Array better than all of the other Warzone Assault maps just because it plays slightly different at the core defense.

It literally gives you the option to spawn at the armory closer to the back door instead of at the beach.

Yeah, I’ve noticed a lot of people get spawned back there including myself and it leads me to believe if halo 5s spawning system was better, less people would use the back door as an option.

But… They want it to be an option.

For those defending though It sucks when you’re flanked from what seems like a safe route. It ruins the fun for them because somebody found a new way to jump and infiltrate. This is a casual playlist. Not arena
