Halo 3 needs one more update!

I would like to see a social Head to Head playlist added as well as double EXP. Here’s a complete list of my ideas:

7th on 7 playlist removed (you can still get the achievement in any other playlist)
Head to Head (1v1) playlist added to Social.
Team Objective added back to Ranked.
Action Sack and Griffball set as permanent rotating weekend double EXP.

MLG playlist changes:

  1. Guardian Oddball brought back
  2. The Pit KOTH brought back
  3. Lockdown (Foundry) Oddball brought back

Social Slayer changes:

  1. Shotty Snipers added into mix
  2. Team Snipers added
  3. Team Hardcore added
  4. Team Duals removed

Social Skirmish changes:

  1. BR starts
  2. Remove sudden death time limit and let the game go for as long as it takes :slight_smile:

Multiteam changes:

  1. MLG Multiteam on MLG Pit added :3
  2. Crazy King fixed so multiple teams can earn points while controlling hill.
  3. VIP given same starting weapon as normal

Rumble Pit:

  1. Shotgun Slayer added
  2. Hardcore added
  3. Splasers added

Anything you would want added?

I agree with this. We need one final update. We should all have flames also.

no changes need to be made to mlg playlist. guardian oddball is already in it, pit kith was taken out of the mlg rotation long ago.

One final update would be epic.

My Last Halo 3 Update

Playlists to add / remove:

Add Ranked Head to Head with competitive settings.
Add Social Head to Head with more relaxed settings (Swords, KotH etc.).
Remove Multi Team, Social Skirmish, 7 on the 7th & Action Sack.
Add Ranked Team Objective.
Bring back Double EXP with at least one ranked playlist per month, Grifball & Living Dead more often than the others.

Playlists after the update

Ranked: Lone Wolves, Team Slayer, Team Doubles, Team Snipers, Team SWAT, Head to Head, Team Objective & MLG.
Social: Rumble Pit, Social Slayer, Head to Head, Social Big Team

Remove the map-pack restrictions from Team Snipers, Team Doubles & Team SWAT.

Double Exp grifball added as a perm playlist.

A FFA ranked playlist that you can invite friends to, A full time Living Dead/ Grifball playlist like in Reach, and made the low pick gametypes in Lone Wolf like King of the Hill and Swords more open to pick then always geting Slayer or Oddball all the time.

Finally someone who feels like i do
Head 2 Head is something that people reminisce about alot so add this
Hardcore Playlist is a must

MLG
As for Mlg the circuit hasnt been active in years and doesnt show any signs of starting up again so i think that adding old gametypes to this playlist to this would be like a breath of fresh air to the playlist or more like air to a oxygen deprived enviroment.
Gaurdian Slayer—> A great slayer varient
Pit KOTH—>One of the most missed Gametypes of the Circuit by mostly all of the remaining mlg players
Lockdown Ball/Slayer—>This was a classic Map and would fit well in the playlist
Isolation Slayer/Flag—>Old but very fun and was interesting

Please 343 Hear us out and add these few things for you community

Except for Shotty Snipers in Social Slayer and BR starts in Objective I don’t want anything on your list.

Your opinion is fine but I don’t like your examples

  • shotgun only based games were in SWAT and were an example of the host wins principle and would be awful for FFA
  • Hardcore FFA? What is this, no radar? MLG FFA was a list for a while and it had radar. No radar sucks in FFA
  • Multi Team changes - do you understand the concept of KOTH for teams? Do you understand what VIP is?
  • Social Skirmish - Remove the time limit? Do you know what will happen? When are enough kills enough?
  • Guardian - you do understand why MLG removed it don’t you? You may love it but the map isn’t as great as you think. Citadel would have been way better for MLG
  • Rumble Pit lasers is terrible. Lasers are anti vehicle and need big maps - not my idea of a good FFA match
  • 1v1 - leave for customs - HLG, griefers and boosters would dominate this list

Look man i dont know about you but i actually run customs and run the playlist 50 high and talk to people about these things and they like the idea for Old gametypes in the playlist they are getting tired of the same thing just as i am. MLG Guardian was great and it got taken out after awhile of being used for heretic slayer which IMO was terrible compared to Gaurdian Slayer and Citadel was a nice map i will admit but it was never in the circuit it was just tested out so that tells you something right there.
Also people loved head to head personally i could care less but i dont know why we can consider it just because of host booter who stop host booting after they get there 50 and if they host boot enough in the same playlist they would get banned very quick so i see nothing wrong with the idea.

Agreed. I’d like to see some double XP weekends and a ranked objective gametype.

There was a reason head to head was removed a long time ago, it was a complete failure of a playlist. All that needs to be done is dlc restrictions removed ( Except for playlists that need them, mlg/mythic etc ) and a permanent weekly double exp rotation of the four most popular dexp playlists.

I agree with most things said in OP

Yeah right, that’s never going to happen

A perma ban for every -Yoink!- that is there just to screw with the few who still enjoy the game.

i love a update but i cant see it happening whitch is as shame cos i love halo 3.
