Playlists and Map Changes that are needed.

Maps

All the available maps aren’t in matchmaking. That is fail and has to be fixed. I think Exile should be included in CTF and KoTH. The gauss warthog on Exile needs to be addressed and the Scorpion spawn should move to a spot where it is fought over. The Mantis on Ragnarok should only have 1 spawn. That vehicle takes over the whole map. Speaking of Ragnarok, it is played way to much; it wins 100% of the time it is up for vote.

Forge Maps
343 should have a contest to see who can make the best map remakes. Lockout, Midship, Wizard, etc… The winner gets bragging rights by getting their map put in matchmaking. I loved the forged versions of Sanctuary and Ascension.
Playlists

I think CTF, Oddball, and KoTH should be put into one playlist. This would give objective game types a bigger population and would also add in some randomness to what you play. BTB Objective, Multiteam, Griffball, Team Snipers, Team Doubles, and Team Fiesta should be added. Why is there no 1 Flag CTF or Bomb Assault period. Halo 2 Bomb Assault was amazing and it hasn’t been the same since it was changed in Halo 3.

1 Flag and Assault do not exist in Halo 4. They are not possible with the handicapped version of custom game options included in Halo 4. kind of sad.

That is sad indeed.

Agreed

-Big Team Objective playlist; Big Team Dominion.
-Ammo crates/standard loadout weapons spawn on map. More frequent, random weapon drops throughout the map. Weigh drops equally to both “sides” of the map for team-based games.
-Ragnarok as a standard Dominion map.

  • Force sniper rifle to spawn within team area on Ragnarok, not a static spawn in the bottom of the base. Far too many players camping that area for a chance at the rifle, which causes me to camp with them, get the rifle, and expend all the ammunition into a wall because they’re -Yoinking!- -Yoinks!-. Then I go kill things like a good Red/Blue should.
    -Remove the Scorpion and Gauss 'Hog on Exile. There isn’t anywhere to place them that doesn’t have an inherent advantage to one team or the other. The Banshee’s spawn is about as fair a place as it gets.
  • One-flag, one-bomb gametypes.
  • Forge-tastic playlist with objective or slayer-based gametypes; maps designed by community.
  • Ordnance drops based on map size; long-range weapons for Ragnarok and the like, etc.
