Official Oddball and "We need game modes" Thread

I know it’s been said, many times, by many different people, but we need oddball already for crying out loud… And yes, i know this game modes can be played in customs, but we at least need oddball on the regular FFA playlist. If i am not mistaken, rumble pit always had oddball in rotation with slayer game types. It would be nice to switch things up from playing slayer every time we play an FFA match. Chime in at your leisure folks…

Oh look another one.

KOTH, VIP, Oddball, and juggernaut would make me happy.

Fiesta FFA oddball is so fun…

I agree with FFA game type should include oddball in the rotation

The reason I want the old game-types back is for Custom Games. VIP was way more fun there than in multiplayer.

We need more game modes

Well take this as what you will but in this community update they talk about a social objective playlist. In this they say that they will put it in a testing period similar to the assault feedback period and the Arena Feedback periods “to get your input on a variety of map/gametype combinations that aren’t available elsewhere in matchmaking”. The could mean Oddball will make a return in this playlist. Hard to say for sure though

Good stuff man, I just hope it happens at some point, I’ve been hooked since the game dropped in October, so i don’t plan to stop playing either way, but it would be nice if it does eventually happen

As have i, i love this game and will continue to play it A LOT. New modes are nice but i am happy to have the ones we do. We are much better off then we were at launch

FFA needs Oddball and KOTH, and so does Arena.

We need a team objective playlist to replace team arena, and for KoTH and Oddball to be added to team objective.

Time for 343 to listen.

I honesty think oddball is such an amazing game type. Me and my friends use to play it in customs all the time. Sometimes we had 2,3 or 4 teams. Sometimes with 1,2 or 3 balls in play on the map even. So much fun!

I love oddball and think it should be in Halo 5 for sure. I also think KOTH is way more fun then strongholds. I know they are similar but KOTH is just such a better game type. VIP and Juggernaut is ok I feel, but I also think they weren’t as popular either. I would like Head Hunter back in, I loved that game type too.

343I needs to have an Objective playlist, or Classic Objective playlist and include KOTH, Oddball, 1 flag CTF and maybe one of two more objective game types from past Halo games.

Race. and King of the Hill.

Dominion, Regicide, Ricochet, Oddball, KOTH, and Team Heavies need to return…
Lightning CTF, Medal Madness, Super Fiesta, Clang of the Hill, Binary Slayer, Shotty snipers need to be in Action Sack.

I want juggernaut, team heavies, btb heavies, vip, regicide, obbball etc basically everyone has said what we need tbh

Strongholds is more similar to territories then Kota I would think.

Wonder if it’d be possible to make a gametype that mimics it…
Maybe you pick up a certain weapon on the map, and once you’re killed the next guy grabs it, i dunno
