So like most people here I have some problems with Halo 4.
One of my problems is the lack of a true FFA playlist. Don’t get me wrong, I really like Regicide and think its one of the best new game types that 343i has added. But there are still times when I wish that there was FFA. For example in two straight games I had the most kills (28 & 26), yet finished 2nd and 3rd in each game. In the game that I got 28 kills and finished 2nd, the guy who finished 1st had only 16 kills. I also lost a lot of points because I had a rather large killing spree at the beginning of the game and therefore had a really high bounty on me for a long period of time.
At this point, Regicide is really the only slayer playlist I play in since I find that the Ordinance Drops and other balancing issues make Infinity Slayer unplayable. I would love for an FFA game type that hopefully has all of the good things of Regicide (no Ordinance), while being the straight forward FFA that we all love.
I’ve heard that they are bringing an FFA game type but I really hope that they don’t include ordinance.
So if they launched a stripped down FFA game type, would that make you or more invested in Halo 4?
THANKS!
To answer you question. It would be a no for me because I hate how the mechanics are in Halo 4.
I hate FFA. I need a good team to back me up, but it wouldnt really matter. I already enjoy Halo 4 as it is (although I’d love some other stuff to be added.)
No, thats just one of the things they need to fix, and not a good enough one.
As for the playlists, They need to
1.) Take out regicide play list and substitute for FFA
2.) Take out Big team infinity and substitute for BTB that way you can include objectives like ctf and dominion
3.) take out Infinity slayer and substitute for team slayer which would include multiple slayer gametypes including infinity slayer
4.) Add multiteam
5.) add game types to swat that utilize other precision weapons and maybe add objective swat game types like in reach.
6.) Add CTF dominion and extraction to team objective to maintain its relevancy.
7.) Change flood completely as it is god awful now
They are adding a Forge map FFA playlist I believe on Monday and then after that they are going to add a regular FFA playlist so it is coming. I doubt they are going to get rid of ordnance, but they do have slot for slayer pro which doesn’t have ordnance or AA’s.

You do realize none of the above but #4 and #5 will ever happen…
Is Majestic FFA still up and running? I’ve really enjoyed that playlist, especially Infinity Rumble.
I love Halo 4, I never left!
