…without having switch Halo 4 with an older Halo game. 
I’d love to play Rocket Race as well, but I’m wondering if Halo 4’s maps are designed well enough to support it, other than Forged maps on Forge Island.
Had a lot of good times on Reach though, would love to see it return!

Off the top of my head I feel like Erosion’s hills would make a great Rocket Race map.

I’ve never played Rocket Race on that map, or even played much games on Erosion at all but I can certainly see potential for Rocket Race on Erosion!
The only problems I see is that the area of the hills is a whole lot smaller than Forge World from Reach, and the hills would provide a lot of Rocket Hog jumps.
Rocket race sucks

Well, how constructive. Can you elaborate on that point?
I like rocket race. I mean, rocks and rails are nice, but nothing compares to manning a turret so large, you could probably stuff a spartan in it.
Rocket Race is my favorite playlist after Flood/Infection. So I would like to start an Office Partition to bring it back.
Ewww rocket race such bad memories from that.
I, for one, wasn’t too crazy about it in the beginning, but as i continued playing it, it just made my day with the most hilarious moments.

GASPS
How can you say that…it was so much fun. Reminded me of Mario Kart Battle, lol.
Rocket Race was easily one of my favorite gametypes from Reach, it’s a shame that I had to say goodbye to it.
Hopefully Race will make a hasty return in Halo 5, and hopefully Custom Games will no longer be so heavily oppressed.
I love Rocket Race!!! I’ve never understood why so many people hate it. I’d really like to see that added to Multi-Team in Halo 4!

I hated it. My drivers sucked and you could never get anywhere without an -Yoink- spamming you with rockets.
I wanted to play some good gametypes in Multi-team, but Rocket race always came up and it sucked. Horrible. I had more fun shooting at rocks

I miss rocket racing as well haha oh speaking of Mario Kart battle lol The battles in that went downhill after the Double Dash
Rocket Race… the only gametype where lack just provided a different kind of fun.
I’m sure someone has reconstructed rocket race in a crazy custom game.

Good reference lol.
This might not work but can’t you make a map and set the game as KotH with a 1 sec capture time and have only rocket hogs spawn as vehicles and rocket launchers as loadouts? You could adjust the damage and maybe make the vehicles trait zones to where if you’re not in them you can’t do damage or something? (I don’t know if you can do that but I heard you could) I tried making something similar to this called Mongoose joust which was a rocket hog variant in reach cept with mongooses and sniper rifles.
Rocket Race rocked both Halo 3 and Reach.
Why it was left out of Halo 4 is beyond me, though no decent substitute for the versatile, skillful and totally awesome Grenade Launcher might have had something to do with it. No, I’m not bitter at all…
Halo 4 should have both versions IMHO.
Rocket Race - 2-man teams riding a Mongoose. Rocket launcher/plasma pistol.
Rocket Hog Race - 3-man teams in a Rocket hog (derp). Shotgun seat carries Rocket launcher and plasma pistol.
Any other ideas for a better secondary? The PP is the only weapon with EMP capabilities that I can think of in H4, but it wouldn’t work very well at 80mph.
rocket race in halo 4 would be freaking awesome
Personally I loved Rocket Race, it was crazy awesome and hilarious.
I would have liked an actual Race game type on user forged race tracks. With a two man rocket race as a variant. You know a track with checkpoints and the goal is complete so many laps first. Add in the rocket races variant except maybe give the backseat rider a concussion rifle on narrow sometimes one mongoose wide tracks and it could create some the funniest gameplay out there.
There isn’t a way right now since the gametypes don’t have enough options. You should checkout my Mario Kart style variant. The gametype has evolved a bit since the video was made:
