I’m currently having a blast playing Infinite, but I hope that for launch, or soon after, they add some more modes so the game doesn’t get stale. What we currently have is:
Slayer (Quick/Ranked/BTB)
Oddball (Quick/Ranked)
CTF (Quick/Ranked/BTB)
Strongholds (Quick/Ranked)
Total Control (BTB)
Stockpile (BTB)
And while they’re all pretty fun, it’d be nice to have the more social modes like infection, fiesta, etc. return. And if 343 is worried about splitting the player base with a lot of game modes, they could just add new modes into one of the 4 playlist options we have. I’d rather that players have more modes to play at launch so that they don’t get burnt out rather than drip feeding modes into Halo that are new or returning modes in the hopes of keeping player retention high.
