There has been a huge recurring problem with Warzone. Mainly this map in specific: Escape from A.R.C.
Not once in the past few weeks have I been able to play a normal match of Warzone. Every time the game starts and the home bases are cleared, the enemy team immediately rushes my teams base.
I don’t know why, but any team I’m on can’t counter this or my team never rushes to even the odds. Then after they’ve capped our first base, they cap theirs and then the garage. After it’s all capped, they literally turn my team into a farm and when I finally get a battle rifle (Req lvl 3) they’ve got snipers and scorpions.
This isn’t something where you can just reply: “Oh it’s cuz you’re a bad player”
or “Maybe you should find a good team instead of randoms”
I am a good player and can go on killing sprees/frenzys normally in most games. I alone cannot defeat an entire team that rushes.
Halo 5 has pretty much died with most of my friends, so I only have 2-3 to play with.
This literally makes warzone unplayable and I’d rather not have to quit any matches because that would lead to temporary bans.
I don’t have the best solution, but a solution would be to have “barriers” blocking off the first bases from the opposing team until the first bases are capped. (Garage would still be fair game.
This is all I got, but I honestly don’t know what to do besides stop playing warzone because there’s nothing I can do.
I see you are in a spartan company, why can’t you team up with those guys? Just because something is difficult doesn’t mean the developer should alter the game to help, you have to adapt, why not do something different at the start of the game instead of going to an armory where you know people will be coming in force?

I have no idea what’s happened to most of them, no one plays anymore, or talks with anyone in the company. I’ve tried to contact them, but no response.
As for the second thing you said, just because I start out in a different area (which I’ve tried many times) doesn’t mean anyone will do the same. for some reason I’m the only one smart enough to go elsewhere while my team gets slaughtered, but even then if I go anywhere else I usually end up getting double/triple teamed by some enemies that respawned or never rushed. cuz again, it’s just me versus everyone basically.

I sent you an invite to my company. We’re pretty active.
Yup once the teams figured out its easier to attack the other armory instead of trying to clear the garage was a better strat is when it got hard. If you hit the garage the other team ends up coming in to get it afterwards normally. I did have a few games that were pretty competitive yesterday the other teams were actually winning until we spawned phaetons in.

Well this issue is because people can now kind of predict from the first 50 points how a game will turn out.
I think that players are rushing too much now.
For examle on Apex. Many players are running to centre(spire) at the start of match and enemy allways attacking red base from cave above.
So it’s easy to loose. Blue base is much easy to protect.
I hate this.
Gameplay on Darkstar feels the same way. Too often i do nothing but staying on base to protect it.

Um…here’s what I do on ARC:
Ignore the elite boss (let my team get him), rush thru our armory, kill a few prometheans on the way over the roof, and rush to the enemy armory and ambush them once they cap and begin to leave.
Sure it’s kinda cheap, but it gets me to level 3 real quick. Then I spawn in a ghost and start getting kills on players and bosses, using its advantage in speed to beat the other team to the points, all the while being a pain in the -Yoink- and keeping them from rushing the garage or our base due to the threat of being splattered while out in the open.
Once the banshee boss shows up, we’ve either capped garage or I’m at a high enough level to spawn in a spartan laser to shoot him down, giving us what’s usually an insurmountable lead at that point.
Try it and see what happens.
Hope this helps ^^
Edit: Btw, I usually play solo and this works more than 50 or 60 percent of the time; even better when you have one or two players doing the same thing ^^

lol so true!
@Op
Honesty, IMO warzone is terrible. The MAIN reason why is has the highest population isn’t because people like it, it’s because you can get the most XP and more importantly REQ points in warzone then any other game type by a country mile!!! The amount of times I’ve heard on here “Oh time to grind warzone this wwekend to get some REQ points to get x pack” is ridiculous!! If you decreased the XP/REQ points from warzone, it wouldn’t be anywhere NEAR as popular.
I hope for halo 6 343 has fire fight in off the bat because maybe they will FINALLY see that there is a very large group of people who like to just play PVE and not PVP. Make BTB, well BTB again with REAL developer made maps and give it some love because it clearly not none in Halo 5.
I know they will keep there dumb REQ system, but with the popularity of firefight they could just have it there.
Warzone is literally where all the bronze kids go to wreck with their REQ’s only to be farmed and complain about it on the forums. It was never competitive, and never will be.
Wait warzones suppose to be competitve ? i mean thats now what i get from it at all its a fun mode to have redonc weapons and vehicles and thats all it should be but so many damn people try hard in it

Once Firefight comes out I’m definitely dropping warzone for it. I’m hoping that they don’t mess it up like they’ve done with so many things, but I will say that Grifball and Infection turned out great imo, so I think it should be fine.
