Please bring back the halo: reach infection!

Hello everyone!
After halo 4 releasing I was missing something,
especially Halo: Reach Infection.
I am disappointed about the flood mode in halo 4 because of their booster power up as well as missing a few camping spots and teaming up.
I really miss how you could easily kill the infected by shooting in the head or a blow with a shotgun and how you could get kill streaks. (ah the good times)

If only 343 could just make a playlist or custom mode where this happens.
I also see a lot of people missing this so play bring it back!

agreed. i was never very good at infection/flood but at least i enjoyed reach’s. h4’s is just annoyingly laggy and brutal.

“Reach?” I thought that name wasn’t welcome here, or anywhere.

> “Reach?” I thought that name wasn’t welcome here, or anywhere.

only people who worship halo 3 dont like “that name” being anywhere.

Halo: Reach’s infection is abysmally unbalanced and cheep.

We already have a low population in certain playlists outside of BTB, if we added the playlist, even more casuals would move to it leaving playlists like Regicide abandoned.

I also don’t like the idea of players boosting their stats in it, like they did in Reach.

id say just add it as a different gametype in flood mode. that wouldnt really throw the pop much. plus currently flood is way op because of mid thruster pack kills.

Sounds like a good idea.

plus its better for commendations right? those who are good at infection. vote for it. those who are good at flood. vote for it. adds a little variety and makes the flood victory commendation a little less ridiculous for those of us that just cant seem to adjust to flood.

Please bring back Halo: Reach.

I think in my file share there’s a Reach Slayer gametype… I gotta remake it with 3 second spawn times.

Last I heard Infection has a higher pop than flood… Even though more players are on h4, more people are playing infection on Reach. Whoopsies

Just remember that Infection back in Reach and now, still is the most played playlist. It is obviously doing something correct and the crummy population in flood clearly shows that it sucks.

typical reachfag response

halo 3 was best halo, including infection

on a serious note though, reachs infection was far better than the one in Halo 4, the halo 4 one just seems really gimmicky

i aint afraid of da police

I like how the infected have Flood models, it makes it more believable and realisic.

> wow. way to be “that guy” in this thread. there were a lot of reasons 3 was good and there were a lot of reasons reach was good. for me all the games are tied cuz they are halo which makes them good.

I think they’re both okay though I prefer halo reach infection which is now called living dead but I think 343 really messed up with the thruster pack in H4 because in slayer all you do with it is a 2 foot jump. Why do I want armor ability that sends me any direction 2 feet

I liked Reach’s evade sent you nice far and out of danger

And the Hockey gametype.
