Many of us have played the infection and grifball gametypes and have enjoyed them. Especially infection which used to have a TON of players back in the day. My question is, if these gametypes were so popular, why take them out in the beginning?
The same can be said for Team Snipers, Team Doubles, and many others. - If you read the second to latest news article, they talk about bringing back Grifball, Assault, and Fiesta playlists this month.

You’re right, but This is a few months after the release.
just so you know infection is not on the top of most people’s list. it was only introduced in halo 3 so it is not one of the staple gametypes that this game needs to survive (bomb, koth, etc)
infection literally is a game of campers. find the highest/least accessible point in the map and camp. best camper wins.
is this really fun for you? there are literally gametypes like this on almost every FPS i can think of. not original, not unique, and quite frankly not any fun.
team doubles is much more essential to a well balanced game than infection. same goes for assault. if you want a weird gametype then you will have fiesta. infection isnt something most halo fans miss. you are a minority in the halo fanbase. deal with it
if infection was so good it wouldve been included earlier. it is not that fun. it is not that popular. there are countless forums and polls to tell you this without a doubt.
that being said i think halo 5 needs all the variety it can get,and i DEFINITELY think infection should be included. i just think it should not take priority over actual staples of the halo experience.
oh and grifball is coming this month, so youll be fine.
Quit whinging about it, they said grifball is coming out this month and infection will likely be the following month
I’m sure it’ll be here soon we’ll grifball wise not sure about infection
because infection isnt really that fun. correct me if im wrong but the game amounts to finding the highest/least accessible point on the map and camp. best camper(s) win.
everytime i have ever played infection i immediately move on to something else. it is a worthless gametype that should not take priority over things like oddball, bomb, KOTH, or other staples in the halo franchise. infection is and always will be an afterthought. realize this and accept it.
grifball is coming back so you should be appeased. to be clear i think the infection fans deserve an infection playlist. this game desperately needs variety and just because i dont like infection doesnt mean it should not have been included at launch. i dont believe they have spoken about bring back infection yet but i bet it will come eventually. BTB, KOTH, oddball, and bomb should have been there to begin with also. they are just trying to hold out on us so we come back later when they give it to us for “free”. really they should be called “late” or “withheld” DLC, not DLC.
for instance i dont believe for a second that they didnt have the warzone assault version of battle of noctus right away when they released the regular warzone map. they just chose to withhold it (and not mention that the new battle of noctus map did not have an assault variant, countless people spent days playing warzone assault hoping it would come up because they werent notified otherwise. when you hear of a new warzone map you figure it will be in both.)
Both modes have been confirmed by 343. Grifball is coming this month (along with Assault and Fiesta) and Infection will be coming in the future, but no confirmed month or date.

You clearly don’t know how important Infection is for Custom games. It literally is THE STAPLE for countless gametypes that we can’t access because we don’t have Infection’s mechanics.

Yep. I think phoreman is the minority.
