snipers

why isn’t there a custom game mode for snipers in halo 5?

You can just change the weapon loadout to a sniper. Plus there are gamemodes - snipers.

To whom it may concern,
I’m speaking directly to whomever is in charge of multiplayer game play and the decision making therein.
Removing social and ranked snipers is a short sighted move. (See what I did there?)
The competition is out doing you and the consumer doesn’t want to hear distraction and redirection because it only sounds like petty excuses. The consumer doesn’t want to be told what they should or should not consume otherwise they’ll find something else to spend their time and money on.
The idea of “keeping things new and fresh” by using rotational matching making playlists and at the same time not having the tried and true playlists that fans have come to count on and look forward to playing only drives more people away. Long time Halo fans know this from prior versions of Halo and match making, for example like how things were with Halo 3 prior to providing a wide variety of game types. Why do you have to learn the same lessons again and again? Are you new to this job title/position? Maybe you weren’t there at that time? Study the mistakes and lessons learned from the past versions of Halo and match making. Your current strategy is self defeating and back firing.
Fans/players of a particular game type, i.e. snipers in this case, will gladly wait a little while longer than normal to have a match set up just to get into their preferred game type. To say that there aren’t enough people playing and hide the numbers from us only makes one leery. Who cares if there are only a few hundred or so playing? At least they’re playing your game and not someone else’s. Those players don’t care that you want them to get excited about the “rotation” of games you’ve decided upon. Let them play their fill of their chosen game type (not yours) and when they want to check out what you’ve thought up in the “rotation” they can go see for themselves and get exposure to other game variations - then it is by their choice rather than by your imposed “rotation”.
Keep taking steps backward and you’ll lose your footing altogether.
Please reconsider your actions and put snipers (and any other highly requested game variant back on).
Sincerely,
A long time Halo fan

You can always play them in customs, no waiting times or anything.
