I a bit heartbroken, After reading game informers review of Halo 4, I was in shock. I am disgraced that firefight is being taken out. It has been fun, epic, and more awesome than ever since the marines joined in. It would even be more epic if 343 added Flood into it. But I am HORRIFIED that elites are not playable. That means NO INVASION!!!
Please 343, I know not everything is said and done at this point. But please, ADD INVASION!!! PLEASE!!!
Invasion could still be in the game, just in a different manner. There will be an explanation Sparkast (343i Podcast) next week, wait for that before you stress too much.
Also, there is a new Game mode, “Spartan Ops”, which will have Firefight like aspects to it.
Yes I was shocked about no elites too because I thought invasion wouldn’t be possible. But they can still do objective mode that has multiple phases.
But I still miss elites. :’(
In my view, they replaced a stale, stagnant game mode with something infinitely more diverse and (possibly) entertaining. I only ever played firefight in ODST and Reach for the achivments so I am glad it has been replaced.
As for invasion…eh I still have BTB.
Ivasion was a horrible mode anyway.

It has much more potential than what we saw in Reach, don’t give up on it yet.

potential? not really…
I to am dissapointed that elties were not playable, if that is the case it does determin whether I’ll play the game or not. we already pre-orderd it before the incident. yes I know it doesn’t make sense to pre-order a game im dissapointed with, but my brother will defenatley play it. just because im dissapointed doesn’t mean my brother should be kept from it.
Invasion got shafted by very few maps, and they never added any community maps in there that might’ve been decent. For people that enjoy objective games, you get up to 3 different objectives combined into one game; a hill, a bomb (on breakpoint), and a flag. Definitely had potential, and if they include something like it with spartans vs. spartans it’d be much more balanced.
Well there could be invasions in Spartan Ops. Invasion in reach was soo damn limited. With only 3 maps, 1 of which barely shows up Invasion did not “reach” its full potential in Reach. My money is on Invasion with Spartans vs. Spartans since multiplayer is simulated for training.

I don’t even like Invasion and I can see how much potential it had, if it had a lot more maps, and a lot more thought put into it, it could have resulted in some serious battles and a lot of strategic thought being put into it.
Welcome to the party, which rock have you been under?
I know right? Non-playable elites and the removal of Firefight are definitely the biggest issues, who cares about all this -Yoink- which actually effects gameplay?
