Objective Pull Prioritization

Anyone else bothered by the fact that there’s little-to-no weight or priority on objective pick up over a weapon?

What do you mean?

Example, if there’s a Needler on the ground right next to the ball or flag, the game doesn’t assume you want to pick up the objective. This means some times you could be standing on an objective, and instead of picking up the flag for a score, you end up weapon juggling.

I’ve had this cause more than one loss in CTF, and each time I’m surprised the game doesn’t prioritize the objective pickup action.

It’s silly that it’s not a mechanic in the game by default.

Yep some times the lag doesn’t let me pick up the flag I try to run through and do it at speed and then nope back you go a few more times till your killed for running in circles

Oh yah I haven’t experienced this issue much but it would suck. Now you just gotta get this to the attention of 343.

Yep, and I hate it. It cost me a game or two because of it.

I agree. Should be in the game.

I wish you could pick your prioritization. I remember in older Halo’s there were games that I lost because I was trying to pick up a rocket launcher that was on an objective, but I kept picking up the flag.

Sometimes you just need one rocket to clear your path to victory, you know?

Haven’t lost a game due to this but when it’s all written out it makes all clear sense!
