Firefight has been long overdue for an update. Myself would love to see them remove dropships from arcade like it was when it first came out and bring back the old firefight with dropships every wave.
Reply so we can get something new instead of living dead updates all the time.
nothing wrong with the dropships in FF arcade, without them we would just have “holdout” and “Installation04” for vehicle kills, with the dropships we have vehicles to kill on Glacier, Beahhead, Overlook, Corvette, Outpost & Unearthed.
Likely this comes from people who never go for vehicles in firefight. Sure take out the dropships and you’ll effectively make Gounded next to impossible to upgrade. It’s already insane once you get to Silver, requiring another 2100 destroyed vehicles, tell me how long do you expect me to sit in Holdout or Installation 04 only to get 3 or 4 banshees a game? And it’s not just that either, it’s not like everyone else in game is going to just LET ME kill them. If anything there should be more dropships, hell dropships should drop vehicles in score attack the same as in arcade or doubles arcade. Nearly every game of 4 person arcade I play has one sniper who gets all the wraiths and ghosts, without dropships I’d likely have to spend a few thousand games in score attack or other firefight gametypes.
The grounded and Perfectionist commendations really should be lower than what they are now. Grounded and Perfectionist, the first needs 2100 to get to gold, and Perfectionist needs 1500 to get to gold. At 3 rounds a game and 8000 to max it out, who in their right minds would play it for that long? Grounded is similar running at 12000 to max. So if I just played Holdout or Installation 04 and banshees came out - which they don’t always - it would take 2400 games if you got 5 a game. Each game running at 20 minutes… that’s 800 hours or 33 and a half days of constant 24/7 gaming. I don’t think so.
Make Lone Wolf available in firefight, that and the beach attack at the start of Long Night of Solace. I know it isn’t possible(?) but if there was just a way to play firefight in space with the sabres. It would be a wicked way of getting Vehicular, which for anybody who is wondering or has already gotten it to onyx, it is so unfun to upgrade. You’re limited to the rocket hog/ghost on beachhead, the machine gun hog on Installation 04, and if you can hijack a wraith great. Mongeese can also kill stuff but it’s alot harder and more inconvienant to use it. I’m not sure if mounted machine gun turrets count or not. If you could fly a sabre in space though - blowing up banshees, seraphs, and phantoms, it would be an incredibly fun way to destroy vehicles and get vehicle kills. Talk about killing 2 birds with 1 stone!

I have grounded onyxed already and i didn’t do in FF Arcade. If that’s the playlist you think you should do it in your dead wrong.

Please tell me, did you do it in score attack? Or doubles, limited doubles, custom firefight? It’s the two slowest to upgrade commendations I see on ANYONES service record.

He did it in FF doubles, he has someone who is working on other commos than vehicular, they get most of the kills, he get vehicles.
If firefight should ever get an update its the return of Firefight limited. so we get a real fighfight were there cannot be no rocket sampers and u have to be aware of you ammo. and a side note about the the enemy vehicle kills i too think that is insane to have to get 1200 iss mto get it to gold if ff limited returned get on beachead and you’ll almost get vehicles every round. every once in a rare while i get the chance to paly REAL firefight on beachead in matchmaking and nearly 90 percent of the time a vehicle gets dropped off so by the end of the game (if u kill all the vehicles) you get 15 enemy vechile kills but we’ll se in time what happens with upcoming updates in which i too wnat invasion to get updated
The two main problems I have with Firefight are that Firefight Limited was removed, and the AI are a bit too smart for their own good sometimes. Especially the Elites, they’re a nightmare on Legendary or Heroic.

The reason they shouldn’t add limited back is if you search by yourself your bad teammates will die so fast and the game will last a few minutes. Most of my friends don’t play firefight. So good luck getting vehicle kills in limited if they bring it back.
My question is: Why hasn’t versus firefight been added to the firefight matchmaking playlist?" I also agree with the drop ships being added, its more fun not knowing if you might get a vehicle or might not. When the drop ships come at the beginning of the waves theirs a mad rush to kill everything before it even drops. Gotta get that score.

Not sure man, this was something I was really looking forward to playing online before the game was released
