Like seriously man, I’m tired of waiting for this, Infection is one of the best gametypes for custom games in Halo.
In Halo Reach there were so many good gametypes being made with infection, even in Halo 4 I seen some scary maps and gametypes like Slender which were always pretty fun for me and seeing the potential with Halo 5’s Forge just amazes me with how the community can make such incredible maps! And with Infection, these amazing maps can be made for us enjoy!
Seriously though… INFECTION!.. and a new File Browser, geez!
Probably see infection for Halloween 2016, yay 343, always hyping us up with the new updates… (I joke)

Its coming in March. Don’t forget that you can create a lot of fun inventive customs with the ball modes ie INDIANA JONES…

Mhm. It should’ve been part of the playlists upon launch or at least in an early update… not force the entire community to wait several months for one of Halo’s most beloved gametypes
Honestly to me it feels like 343 is just being lazy on purpose because these updates are free, imagine if they were paid DLC they would probably -Yoink- out a ton awesome stuff with every new dlc released smh
Infection, GrifBall. I want these. I also kinda want Juggernaut. Tweak it a bit. Either make the juggernaut stronger or weaker but make it so there is like 2-3 per match.

Yeah, Infection with the new forge would be amazing. I’ve seen some great maps for it already (slender forest and infected quantum to name a few)
I know everyone has been frustrated that 343i didn’t just slap all the staple game types into the release.
But it sounds like the wait may be worth it for the ball type games… as it sounds like 343i is going all out with customisable options.
I’m sure all will be forgiven if/when we are flooded with classic AND new custom ball games.
Hopefully the other staples, such as Infection and King of the Hill follow suit, and we will all forgive 343i for not taking the lazy option of just copy and pasting a simple and restrictive game type.
Getting a bunch of Ball modes is better than just Infection, so I don’t mind waiting a bit more.
My personal guess is that March will release official Oddball and Ricochet gametypes, and perhaps Hot Potato, alongside a dedicated, permanent Action Sack playlist. Then Infection will come in April (they’ll probably need more than a month to balance it, judging by how long it’s taking them to release Ball), and hopefully we’ll have Race and King of the Hill (Race being a variant) soon after.

Oddball and Ricochet are coming with the ball gametype. Its just ricochet won’t be a matchmaking gametype right away, but the community will be able to recreate it and play it in customs.

I know. Hence the “official” Oddball and Ricochet variants, as I’m sure the community will make their own variants right away. It’s 343i’s style to hold content back (probably for a variety of reasons, some better than others).
