I have to say, this map is fantastic. It has quickly become my favorite FF map. The only issues I have are as follows:
There is no FF doubles playlist. Random lag ruins every game and FF doubles minimizes the chance of it happening. Also, with the number of people who own the map, this should have appeared first rather than Arcadefight.
No Banshee jack. This map seems spot on for a quick Banshee swipe. We were denied this in Holdout. Come on, WE WANT OUR BANSHEES!
Problem 3: Getting an ODST to man a passenger or gunner position on vehicles are impossible if not insanely difficult
That’s due to the fact that there are typically four people playing. If you complete a wave, however, there is an ODST who drops with the Warthog. They are quite efficient at getting the job done too. But there should be a reinforcement wave to replenish the ODSTs that (inevitably) die.

Damn it to hell! My one hope for this map was the ability to skyjack a Banshee. My Firefight medal chest my never be completed.
I am very disappointed! (Fifth Element reference)

The “Firefight” segment of the Package was brilliant because of the tools and different ways you could handle a situation (which included Skyjacking). We need more maps like this! If 343 just disabled the Banshee ban in Installation 04, it would be a great step forward.
Installation 04 is great, but I do wish we could have matchmaking with regular Firefight settings too instead of ONLY Arcadefight. The map really isn’t a challenge with 4 guys with infinite rockets/rods, and the Warthog is unusable 60% of the time because if the scum who inhabit Arcadefight see you and a friend driving around enjoying yourselves, they will inevitably drop what they’re doing, ignore the Covenant, and pound your Warthog until you explode.
Basically, it’s Beachhead #2. Awesome level, but thanks to nothing but Arcadefight, it looks like I’ll never get to truly enjoy it except by myself or if I can manually put together a party of friends.
