If there is a mode that I did not list, please comment.

Warzone Firefight was a lot of fun. It was the first time since Halo 2 that I bothered playing Halo mp. I was very saddened when it didn’t make it in Infinite.

I liked the first iteration of LSS before they ruined it.

Yeah, that was a blast.

They changed the loadouts if I remember correctly? I know they scrapped the Sidekick in favor of Disruptor only spawns.

They also changed the drop pods RNG.

Would love a Spartan Ops mode again. Having a side story to play through with your own Spartan was a good time.

Land Grab from Infinite is hands down the best area capturing type of mode I have ever played, all of a sudden Domination that’s so popular in almost every game looks outdated.

I also loved Last Spartan Standing, it was basically Halo without Halo, without all that BS people here glorify so much which only makes the game skillless and noncompetitive, which is why not so many people played ot and the mode got removed, RIP.

The Entrenched event definitely skewed my opinion on Land Grab since the only time it was usually available was during events. And during events, people are hyped up on Adderall trying to get the rewards and the whole thing just like ranked Onyx.

Events aside the mode’s pretty fun. Very intense. However, I wish 343 didn’t just throw it on every map. I don’t think it plays particularly well on symmetrical maps and large maps like Behemoth and Launch Site completely break the gamemode.

The OP b did not have Capture The Flag that I why I voted other.

Side note:

Just saw a video on your tube posted today that rumours of Halo maybe going to Unreal Engine. Not sure if it’s going to be Unreal 5 or Unreal 5.1

I know this sounds like I’m hating on 343I, but honestly, none of them. I haven’t really liked any new game mode they have done. Yeah some were okay but nothing really grabbed me for a long period.

I did like the idea and playing Spartan ops though. Even though it was highly repetitive, I did like that and wish they would continue something like that.

I think 343 should have at the bare minimum monthly pull questions in game (Halo Infinite, MCC, Halo wars 2) that asks players questions like this. It should be asked across as many games and even on waypoint to reach as many fans as possible. Heck, even do Twitter, as much as I don’t like Twitter but it can’t just be social media because as I’ve said a thousand times lots of people don’t care about social media (like me!!) So in game and waypoint would be best.

What mode would you like to see in the future of Halo infinite? What has been one of your favorite modes in any Halo game? Stuff like this. I think it would go a long way in getting some real information from people that are playing their games.

CTF is not 343 era game mode. It’s been in halo since 2001 (same reason why Grifball or Infection are missing).

SO? It’s still part of the Halo Franchise! :grinning:

The purpose of the poll is to see what game modes created by 343 (basically anything from Halo 4 and later) players like.

But since you like CTF, is there a specific version that you like or do you like other asset denial modes?

I dunno, are any of these equivalent to Invasion? That was the last time I thought Halo MP was cool

I make my own maps when it comes to CTF. I have been making maps & mods since Halo Combat Evolved. No real specific version I liked ummmm Reach was fun cuz of the Hornets, Weapons, and jet packs and we had the ability to carry the flag in any vehicle!! Which I miss alot in Halo Infinite!!

@LITTLEFATMONKEY
Invasion was Spartans vs. Elites and a mix of King of the Hill and Capture the Flag (and sometimes Assault).

So if you liked the humans vs spartans aspect, then H5 Warzone is the mode for you. Warzone also had multiple objectives, one of which was a territories mode. Warzone Assault is a bit more like Invasion where the map “opens up” as the attacking team complete objectives and gets access to better weapons and loadouts.

@SysopIsAFK Yeah Reach CTF was a blast. There were a lot of great maps for it too.

I like strongholds, the Infinite version is the best yet. I don’t think there was a similar mode in earlier games…? I think territories was different enough.

Also, repulsoccer is a blast, but considering I can still only play that in custom games… I’m not going to count it.

Crap I knew I was leaving something off the list :melting_face:

Yeah strongholds is a lot more fun in Infinite than H5 imo.

My other is: Super Fiesta.

The ultimate social game type where nearly anything can happen and yes I am strictly referring to the H5 version.
