There needs to be a warzone playlist just for fun, I miss the 20 minute games that ended like 1000-990 from the early days of halo 5. Now its all about core rushing, and I don’t know if farming is still a thing but I’m sure it is. Its not fun to hop into a game of warzone, and get crushed in like 5 minutes. I’m not saying take away their ability to core rush, just have like a different playlist for warzone that’s just balanced fun.
And please if you’re one of these people don’t respond unless its actually constructive.
I think this has more to do with population. When most people have moved on from Halo 5, the remaining players are likely to be more dedicated and less casual. Not much 343 can do about that
They did some match making adjustments a few weeks ago test out a new tighter system. The games were really tight like 1000/997. It’s back to the normal mismatched games right now. I’m not positive but I think the update coming November will be with the new settings.
This is an issue with the people playing. There is no such thing as balanced fun if people want to win. I suppose the only feasible way now to guarantee “balanced” games is to cap everyone’s Req levels to like 5 or 6 and lock certain vehicles and weapons.
What they really need to do is make the enemy AI way way more aggressive. Make them be able to attack you from any where instead of just saying in their small spawn area where players can essentially ignore them if they choose. Make them able to capture armories or garages/Fortress. It would be way harder for teams to pin other teams down if they were getting attacked from AI on another side.
I understand that the people that havent moved on, are the tryhard dedicated type, but thats also the reason people havent come back. They get that wild hair, jump on to try it out, and absolutely hate it. Im really not aure that there is much to do about it. Find a fireteam and be the one stomping? Dont play at all? As far as I can think, everything that has a chance, has more of a chance of making things worse.
It’s just core rushes because you’re either playing a party or the skill matchup is very uneven. They would have to tighten the skill matching like ranked for it to have a lot of even matches.
It’s the reqs. In the beginning skill mattered more because half the game was BR vs BR. Now it’s swapping kills with OP reqs. Once one team gets a decent lead, the other team figures it’s pointless to use good reqs when the loss is already ensured. The winning team then dominates to the end because they keep pulling regs. Very few matches end with close scores because one team often gives up at a certain point. I loved WZ for the first few months. Too many reqs on the field makes it too random and I found it hard to enjoy. Sadly microtransactions are where the industry is right now, so I’m sure Halo 6 will be centered around them like every other game is.
What warzone truly needs is a complete overhaul. #1 make enemy AI way more aggressive and use more of the maps. Make it so they can capture your armories/garages/fortress so teams can’t ignore them any more. #2 add covie drop pods so more enemy AI shows up at random times and not such scheduled times. #3 add more and different objectives in games like having to score a neutral flag or capture a strong hold… Stuff like that. Warzone became so predictable it just wasn’t that fun after awhile.
Warzone IS the ‘just for fun’ playlist; that’s exactly what 343i gave us. The issue lies mostly with competitive players, who usually play Arena, relaxing by coming into Warzone and hammering us casuals. Why change the game mode when it’s the players that are causing you problems? Everyone moaned that we needed separate competitive and casual game modes. 343i gave us it and people are still moaning.
At this point in Halo 5’s life I doubt something like this will come to Warzone.
Hey, it’s still a possibility for Halo 6. I remember when Halo 5 first came out and I played Warzone day and night. I hope Halo 6 has a fair balance between social and competitive matchmaking when it comes to Warzone. 2 separate playlists perhaps.
I have a question How come if you have say 4 people in your fire team, and you enter into a warzone match Together… How come some people get left behind on the loading screen and are unable to join in beacuse the match is full?
