Halo 4 Needs a CTF Playlist

Games Other Halo
1

It is far too often that I play Halo 3 or Reach and play modes like Big Team or Skirmish and hope for CTF to pop up. It’s easily Halo’s most popular objective game mode with the exception of Grifball, and I’d really like to start playing CTF more frequently.

At least include a playlist for the time being until the population of Halo 4 starts to decrease, once it has, add it to a general Objective gametypes playlist. Whenever I play CTF nowadays, I have a total blast and hunger for more.

Jut have basic gametypes such as:
2-Flag CTF
1-Flag CTF
Attrition CTF
Tank Flag
And new variants

It will also be a good way to get people to try out the new features implemented into Halo 4 CTF.

If not this, please, a basic playlist with CTF, Oddball, and Assault. Please.

Halo 4 needs real CTF first and foremost.

And if they keep the voting from Halo Reach and simply put objective in the first and second slot, it would be fine.

Team Objective?

Classic CTF, I’m sure it can be done

> Team Objective?

I’m mostly referring to Halo 3 with this list, nothing against Reach, but when it comes to Objective Halo, Halo 3 is the way to go for me.

No, it can’t.

And what makes you say that?

I’m hoping for a BTB objective. I believe teams that big shouldn’t be primarily focusing on kills.

CTF! CTF! CTF! CTF!

I think he’s referring to the fact that they said they aren’t putting in custom options to let us play classic ctf and to get used it.

Halo 4 is launching with a CTF playlist. It’s already been confirmed…

I think this is a great idea. People don’t want CTF mixed in with Oddball and KOTH. CTF by itself would encourage more people to play it. Also, less quitters, as people would know what they’re getting into.

CTF needs to be put back to its classic style FIRST

Then Team Objective
With a 75% CTF and other mixed Objective

I don’t see the harm in having a playlist with both, considering we likely won’t even be getting options to turn sticky flag, Flagnum and the lack of dropping the flag off.
