Social Skirmish was a playlist in Halo 3. It was essentially social objective. Raises? I hear someone chanting slayer and that is what I think of.
Oh god, I remember. Like nearly six years ago now though man. I loved objectives in 3, I miss them. Fair enough, and yeah raises, must have spelt it wrong 
Skirmish was in a few games, but the problem with objective only playlists is that it’s not popular. At this point though, any new playlist would be better.
Why are we surprised by this? Do we need more Objective playlists? Yes, I won’t deny that. But look at other Halo games, a ton of the playlists they feature are Slayer only. We have a Team Objective playlist on the way, when it’ll arrive is a mystery. But this isn’t something worth making a thread about because this has always been the thing for Halo games. People like random slaughter, not objectives. It’s sad really.

It’s annoying. I’m burning out because I’ve finished my warzone commendations and now I’m being forced into game after game of slayer if I want the CTF and SH ones

Huh, and here I feel like almost all I get is CTF and Strongholds. I have been playing mostly the BtB playlist since it updated with new maps, and the majority is objectives.
Play Team Arena and you’ll get what you’re looking for.

THANK YOU.
I play most nights with a good friend of mine and we constantly lament this. In Halo’s of old, they’d have a dedicated Objective playlist. That was for CTF (my favorite game mode), Oddball (miss it a lot), KOTH (want to see it return) and Strongholds (in the case of Halo 5). It was awesome.
Now?
Most every other game in Team Arena seems to be Slayer. They LITERALLY have AN ENTIRE PLAYLIST dedicated to Team Slayer. If I wanted to play Team Slayer, I’d go there to do it… it’s the oldest gametype in Halo and the one I’m most burnt out on, perhaps even moreso than Infection (played that so much in Halo 2 I have had little desire to ever play it again all these years later). If I go to Arena, I want to play Objective games, and when I get Slayer, I want to quit, but can’t because of the banhammer.
PLEASE make a change on this 343! Seperate Arena or Objective (whatever you want to call it) from Slayer. And all of us around the world who are sick of Team Slayer would rejoice!
I wouldnt mind having this many slayer gametypes if there were other objective gametypes to play. Ex: Oddball, stockpile, headhunter, KOTH
Cant help myself thinking of the band Slayer whenever i play or hear Slayer lol
Oh look it’s RAINING BLOOD! \m/

I feel you, I had this issue when I wanted to max out my CTF/Stronghold commandations.
