I am a huge Halo fan, been playing since Halo:CE it was the game that convinced me to buy a Xbox. With the release of Halo 2 came online multiplayer and I was completely blown away that a console could produce such a competitive arena to kill people from around the world. But I found out that slayer becomes stale and boring extremely fast and so I moved on to objective games and (hand on heart) I can say I found my home on Halo.
What I want from 343i for Halo Xbox One/5 is more love shown to competitive Objective game types. It took almost 6 months for a Big Team Objective playlist to appear, CTF felt broken (flag carriers should not have guns, I mean where’s the fun???), there was no Assault/Territories, there were and I believe still are not any asymmetrical game types in Halo 4 (One bomb, One flag, Territories) I mean come on these were the bread and butter game types that objective players love.
Please post your comments below I’d love other objective players to post their views.
If they have both Invasion and Dominion in Halo 5, i will be happy.
i dont mind the flagnum but i hope they get rid off auto pick up and not being able to drop the flag. ctf, assault, one-side objective types, dominion, and invasion should all be in the next halo and i’ll be happy, especially invasion.
They can keep auto-pickup but need to put in a drop option. I also hope they re-introduce assault…i have NO idea why the hell they ever removed that, made no sense to me.

Ricochet is basically the same thing. Except 10x better.
On the CTF front i enjoy all the changes. Auto pick up can be on or off for all i care. But the ability to drop it should be a toggle option. Personally i don’t think You should be able to drop the flag.
It forces the player to commit to his role. It’s less of an incentive to pull the flag by yourself because you can’t pull rockets out of your pocket anymore.
The only loss we had was the ability to throw it up to someone or down to someone. Which IMO isn’t a terrible loss compared to the benifits CTF now has.

In your opinion. It’s different and definitely fun, but I still miss playing Assault on Zanzibar, High Ground and Sand Trap. The basic assault gametype is sorely missed by many people.
