Game variants

I know that slayer will pretty much have no variants this time due to the loadout system which is great, but what about objective gametypes. Will get variants of CTF like one flag, or crazy king, if so will they be available in the playlists? I know I heard that the whole point of giving each gametype their own seperate playlists was to make it so you only had to pick a map, but does this mean variants won’t be included? I just thought this seemed interesting.

Actually your wrong, there are 3 variants of slayer, classic, infinity, and regicide. But i haven’t seen any variants of other gametypes, but grifball is now a game type now instead of a assault variant now.

All 3 of those are their own playlists and regicide a is FFA gametype.

I kinda hope we get more variants, or else this is gonna be Halo 3 all -Yoinking!- over again…boring and stale.

Yes technically I am wrong, but I was refering more to the slayer dmr/br type variants not variants that have been given there own playlists.

Variants will be cycled in as the game progresses to keep it fresh and exciting. But initially on launch, expect a pretty barebones playlist.

Thats what I was expecting, we’ll at least get use to the basic gametypes at first. I’m also expecting some playlists to fuse over time.

Does anyone know if koth is a ffa playlist or a taem playlist?
