Decided to open up custom games to see what the gametypes and maps look like, and noticed a significant shortage in gametypes - there’s only 4: slayer, breakout, strongholds, and CTF.
Where’s assault?
Where’s KoTH?
Where’s oddball?
Where’s juggernaut?
Where’s race?
Where’s infection?
I get the whole “make Halo competitive again” approach for Halo 5 but not even including any of these gametypes in custom games is ridiculous. Your telling me I gotta go back to the Halo 2 approach of playing zombies on a slayer gametype where all the rules are honored-based? I really hope these all, or at least the popular ones like infection, get added in when Forge mode is released.
Like in other games not all game modes were in at launch they got added due to popular demand.

This game needs real objective game modes and real big team battle.
Halo 4 did the same mate, I’m pretty sure Reach did too. They will get added over time no doubt. I think Infected got added to Halo 4, months after release (don’t quote me though). They stick with core game types at the start and expand from there. It may also have to do with keeping player pools full to the brim on release, then spanning it out over time. Not too sure though, but don’t let your hopes down. They are coming 
Kinda sucks that the game modes aren’t in the custom game section, but hopefully they launch soon
They have to be created via game script coding.
The game is going to be central to 343i for at least 3 years. Before year 1 is done, we should see the majority of classic gametypes to return. Of course, some aren’t to at all.
