I actually like one flag way better than capture the flag, but the problem is with it being restricted to only Launch Site I feel as if it never comes into rotation. Last night I was pleasantly surprised when it came op {although I need oddball for my challenges) once it was over (we got stomped) I realized this was perhaps only my fifth time ever playing One flag through quick play since the launch of Multiplayer and that is an issue. 343 really needs to ad one flag to other maps I feel like Bazaar, Aquarius and maybe Behemoth would work or add one newer map just for one flag so it will come up more often. I have to say I have played over 200 games since November 15th in Quick play and one flag only came up five times since then that is not a good percentage.
So now I am hearing that part of Cyber showdown event One Flag will be part of it but the problem still stays the same only one map Launchsite has one flag making it rare to pop up.
Usually symmetric maps like aquarius, behemoth, and bazaar only have multi flag. I think streets could work out well if the flag was in the back of tram. Livefire is too small and doesnt have a good flat spot. Highgrounds in H3 was a great map for it
BTB one flag would probably work on at least 1 of those maps but I cant remember those maps too well since BTB has been busted so long. Longshore and Valhalla in H3 were pretty fun.
I actually think Behemoth map might work for One Flag and it might make that map more playable it is my least favorite I sigh whenever I see CTF Behemoth but maybe One Flag Behemoth could be fun.
The problem is you can not put a mode into Quick play with only one map and except it to come up enough for players
We are in the minority for wanting more one flag maps. The majority of Halo players dont like objective modes, especially the more niche ones. One crazy example I remember from H3 was VIP had like a 2% weighting in some playlist (I forgot which) so like 1 in 50 games. That was back when you could see the weightings of each playlist on Bungie.net
My number one issue with one flag is that it exists.
One flag is garbage.
Launch Site is the worst map in the game.
One flag needs to be separated from quick match and made it’s own base attack game mode.
It interrupts the flow of the other game modes to shockingly and some players don’t even seem to get the concept.
The other maps such as Bazaar, Live Wire, Recharge etc won’t really work for one flag as well do to being symmetrical.
It needs to be it’s own thing. Make more maps specific to the game type and call it Base Defend or something that highlights the different gameplay style.
I agree it does need to be separated but I also think Behemoth might work using it for One flag
