Everyone sits in the same tunnel of ultimate survival every round. There is no challenge to pushing a box in front of a door and getting eight other guys to point their gun at the other door. I used to think it was kinda fun, but now I see just how cheap and boring it is. There is no test of endurance related to it, and all you end up doing is burning away three minutes of time.
I’m speaking as an infected and a survivor. Box tunnels are boring.
I also dislike this version of Infection. Just give the survivors decent spare ammo, and remove the power weapons/headshot capable weapons. They could keep suppressors and whatnot on the maps, though.
I thought it would be boring if everyone was afk. One alpha quitting and the other afk, a fun game just trying to team kill each other on the non-infected side to make the match more interesting.

I like this version of Infection, honestly. What I hate is the two or three places in all the maps with one way in that have no real counter.
Yes, I know previous MM Infection modes were even campier than this one. Doesn’t make it okay or any less boring.
To be honest, compared to other versions of infection in other games, this version is no where near as campy as Reach. I mean, if you go from previous versions of infection to this, you know exactly what is going to happen once people learn the map layout and the weapon positions. After that, it is basically 12 player FFA. I would say it is the most balanced of the versions out there.
The camping and potential reward of a high multikill is why I love Infection so much.
Yeah, it sucks when I get shot 5 times in a row without reply when I’m infected, but every once in a blue moon I’ll be last man standing with infinite ammo and get a really nice multikill.
Take away the few camping spots left and I would probably stop playing it. I find being out in the open boring as you’re limited to a double or triple kill tops before getting infected and I think I’d rather play Warzone if that were the case.
It’s clear to me that different people want different things from Infection - they have different ideas of how the maps should be etc. I think the current version is OK - I preferred Halo 3 and Reach though (never liked Halo 4 flood which is why I soon stopped playing that game).

Yeah, unfortunately people started camping and looking for exploits in reach. So all the maps are designed with spots like that. No more running around with a shotgun and hoping your buddy is going to help you instead of betray you.

I’d like to try out a map I made a while ago that I think would be good for Infection. I saw that you have customs every now and then, so I’ll add you.
Yeah i guess that can be boring lol.
The corridors make it fun by yourself, I’ve gotten several kiltrocitys from being last man standing, my favorite was on crypt with a boltshot. As a infected…the feeling of actually infecting the campers is great…knowing that they will share your pain of killing the other campers…
