Infinity Slayer is not balanced.

343 really needs to adjust the ordinance drops and make good weapons way less frequent. It completely ruins a lot of the maps, especially Ragnarok which I now despise playing on. The whole game is just people camping with their OP DMRs until they can call in a sniper rifle. The whole match I was just playing on 8v8, at least half of their team was sniping the whole game. This is not Halo. This is randomness that was taken from COD.

No it’s definitely Halo.

Jump in a Banshee/Mech and cripple the pesky snipers. Simples.

> No it’s definitely Halo.

No, it’s not.

Banshees get demolished in this game from the DMRs and ordinance drops.

> Jump in a Banshee/Mech and cripple the pesky snipers. Simples.

Then get a few shots from this snipers and be killed. Simple.

There is no more need for map control either. Just sit back and wait for your ordinance.

I enjoy it how it is but not as a serious skill v skill gametype, I just want them to add more playlists so that infinity slayer can stay the same.

On 4v4 the drops work fine, on big team they definitely slow the game down and ruin it. Halo 3 Valhalla was all about center control. Now I constantly see teams just sitting in spawn using drops to keep the advantage. It’s fine to have drops in the game but throw in a classic BTB playlist that doesnt have the drops.

Indeed, I was astonished how quick you can kill a banshee with a sniper rifle. I demolished one first time I picked up the rifle.

I want the old days back of everyone trying to lob stickies at them :slight_smile:

They should make it how Invasion was. Have certain “tiers” for the game. Only be able to call in power weapons towards the end of the game.

This was a game I played yesterday on Valhalla;

>Spawn and grab Sniper
>Call in Ordinace (Another Sniper)
>Get more Ordinance, call in Beam Rifle
>Get regular Sniper ammo when it respawns
>Get Binary Rifle when it drops in
>Get ordinance Incineration Cannon
>Die like a hero on the battlefield mid-map with 6 Cannon kills.
>End game with a great score and few deaths.

Infinity slayer at its core and design isn’t supposed to be balanced. It’s supposed to favor people with higher rank (more spartan points to purchase things/more loadouts)

Out of integrity on Ragnarok, I always call in the close range ordance drops. Shotty’s, Sticky Det’s, Pulse Grenades, Saw. I usually have to fight in the river or by the pelican.

I suspect that besides the ordnance drop, the OPs main gripe is to bring back the Needle Rifle :wink:

> Jump in a Banshee/Mech and cripple the pesky snipers. Simples.

Except snipers are now anti-vehicle weapons

Take the ammo perk and your set.

A needle-based primary weapon would be awesome.
