anyone else wanting to play arena for the objectives and getting heaps of slayer ? i must be getting 50% or more most days and playing from australia slayer is brutal for me and not much fun !
Im sure the devs would have to change some code to mix up the playlists to not get as much Slayer
If you’re leaving the intermission and going back to the lobby, that “resets” your hopper search. Try staying in during intermission and see if you get a bit more balance between slayer/objective.

This is true. Most people prefer Slayer over Objective as well which is why it comes up more frequently than objective based gametypes

Could be true, but that isn’t actually the reason. It’s because Slayer can be played on every map in Arena rotation, so it has a higher probability of showing up than CTF and Strongholds.
With Slayer having its own playlist, why not just take it out of Arena and put Assault in Arena on a permanent basis? Add other objective game types if you want to mix it up some more.
You want to slay? Great, there is a separate playlist for that…

Unfortunately this doesn’t work for me playing from Australia I have to leave as it won’t find me another game in any mode war zone etc once a game is done it will search for 5 minutes then tel me no match was found soninhave to back out to get back in this has been happening for a year

My thoughts exactly why double up on slayer ? When it has its own list

I’m not saying I’m right but Slayer seems to always be more popular than Objective among everyone
I’d love to see Team Arena turned into a Team Objective playlist now that 343i have given us the HCS playlist. See this playlist breakdown to better understand what I’m talking about.

So would I especially when slayer has its own playlist

I’m sure it is hence it has its own playlist that’s the issues if I wanted to play slayer I could just play slayer but I want to play objective ctf strongholds etc and it’s like I have to play a slayer game for every objective game which is annoying
I think slayer should be in there, but they should definitely make it less often. I think if they could also stand to add assault and maybe snipers and breakout for a larger mix to test more general halo skill. I do get a good amount of objective myself though. HCS summer of whatever it’s called is a different story for me though. Out of my last 17 games, 16 have been slayer and one has been ctf. Not a great balance.

Your right I don’t mind the odd slayer but I do really enjoy ctf and strongholds and I’d love a few other options oddball or something’s like that it’s just too much when slayer has its own playlist

That’s just how things are. I think that those two should just have their own playlists and no mixes. Team Slayer and Team Objective, that’s it

Yep couldn’t agree more
there needs to be a Team Objective playlist

I agree but it never lasts all that long. There aren’t many people who seem to enjoy it which is why it’s in the mix with Team Slayer

I honk everyone could agree to team objective with the odd slayer match mixed in like 1 or 2 every 10 matches but at the moment it’s at least half which I feel is Overkill
Too much Slayer, not enough Oddball…
