Awesome!

SWAT? nice!

Disappointing then that the breakout maps count towards the map count looking at this, also I am not keen on breakout being included in team arena it should have it’s own playlist IMO. Plus no objective playlist :frowning: where is bomb game types and also neutral flag/bomb etc.

Totally read Plaza Slayer as Pizza Slayer, now I’m sad. That sounded like a very tasty game mode ;(
Rest if it looks great though :smiley:

Cheesetacular!
Pepperonipocalypse!
Mushroomanjaro!

Tasty medals.

Day 1 SWAT playlist huh? Well hot damn. Guess there is a first for everything in Halo. :slight_smile:

But…Infection? Infection deserves to have its on playlist not to be put in a random gamemode Team Action Sack Playlist!
Infections a default like swat

Not really.

Whats the difference between Team Arena and Breakout?

EDIT: Nevermind, I answered my own question, sorry

I needs it. Gimme, gimme, gimme!

Has 343 even said the word Grifball once? I love how it got good advertisement in H4, but now Absolutely nothing. I just want to see dat smexy hammer and smash fools with it.

This is actually pretty good for launch. I hope they make grid ball big again, especially with the new forge options. It would be sweet if they created tournaments for swat, and grifball. I need my remake of foundation though…

Just wanted to say… these modes represent what the majority of players wants to play.

Infection? Oddball? King of the Hill?
All nice modes… just not very popular (sry if you like it).

^ this. right here. needs to happen :expressionless:
Un-chicken-supremable!

I just hope breakout get taken out of team arena, I probably won’t play team arena until then it just doesn’t fit the playlist IMO and needs to stand on it’s own two feet. All other modes have shields including a mode without in that playlist just makes no sense to me.

I miss team doubles already,

edit:
and team snipers
and team objective

Dispatch, Array and Summit = Warzone maps ?

The 5 Breakout Maps and the 2 Forge maps (Orion & Pegasus) included in the map count ? :frowning:
Truth, Regret… but where’s Mercy ? I was hoping for another alien maps

5 Breakout variants
8 Arena (5 UNSC industrial maps, Truth, Regret, Coliseum)
Orion & Pegasus (Forge maps)
6 Warzone maps
= 21 ?

Well, there goes people telling me not to play Breakout if I don’t like it. I have no choice now…

Team Arena definitely needs some work. They should just turn it into Team Objective: strongholds, CTF, KOTH, Oddball, Assault should return. Why is Slayer there, when we already have a dedicated playlist for it? Breakout as its own playlist, just like Warzone is separate. I might just have stay away from Team Arena.

Edit: Also add Team VIP or Regicide
