Hey,
so, I’ve been playing Halo Infinite’s quickplay, and I don’t really like how I can’t choose to just play slayer, it’s always CTF and I don’t like playing CTF. The only way to actually be effective in CTF is teamwork and when I’m not playing with friends, I have to carry my team (Try to) by carrying the flag but then nobody is backing me up and then I’m dead, I don’t want to play CTF, I just want to play slayer. My point is I want the ability to choose which game modes I play just like MCC. I don’t know if 343 is planning to fix this but what are your opinions on this matter?
It is an obvious design flaw. I am not sure how 343 released the matchmaking in its current form. Opposite to you, I need CTF for a challenge and I cannot get into them. If I have to play Stockpile too much more, I am going to break something.
I have no solid facts to give you about this conundrum. My only guess into why 343 continually refuses to make more playlists is the Halo playerbase has dwindled to low numbers, so dividing the players up even more in between a bunch of different playlists and game modes will only make players wait even longer in matchmaking… (Halo 5 had some long load times in certain playlists) I think now 343 is truly relying on PC players to fill some of the void, which could explain why they are catering to PC players as much as possible. Again, I have no proof, this is just my speculation.
