Infection?

So is the infection gametype ever going to return, or is 343i going to screw over Halo 5’s custom games as well?

I don’t think care about us casuals anymore, HALO 4 was amazing for casuals, but then HALO 5 is made for try hards. There has to be a middle ground!

They hinted at new gametypes on reddit for a future update soon.

Reach and 3 were hardcore succesful, something for competitive and the cassies.

They’ve already stated Infection and Griffball are in the works, and it seems like the hints point towards the January / February updates.

Where have they said this?

“We’ll be expanding the social mode offering as new modes come online.” I wish people would actually read the News Stories posted.

It’s called psacing out the content, so they have to do less work. i lvoe halo 5, but im horribly dissapoitned in their “free dlc”. so far, all they gave us is -Yoink- we had in previous halo games on launch.

Did you just say that Reach was competitive? You and I must have played different games.

Link please.

Still doesn’t ease the pain of waiting though. Kinda feels weird waiting on features to be released in a Halo game, but if it turns out better in the end then I guess it’s worth it.

It had a competitive aspect, but not one that was widely liked. Because of bloom and the like.

Well that’s a paradox then. If it had a competitive aspect that wasn’t successful with those who were competitive at heart, then that aspect failed.

I suppose it DID have arena, but tbh I never really played it XD

Back to what the OP was asking, they did say they are expanding on social playlists, and that can be led to assume they might be working on it (it also says this on the message of the day I believe when you log into the game :D)

That is horribly vague and nothing specific. If you think that means infection, that’s simply because you are reading too far into it.
