I like how Halo 5 is focused heavily on the competitive side of gameplay, but as a gamer who likes to play casual game types occasionally when arena gets repetitive I like to play something that is un-ranked, i.e. Action Sack, Infection, Grifball, etc. But why are there no social playlists for CTF, Strongholds, Breakout, game types that can be played for fun without having to try hard every single match you play? I seriously do not know why this has not been implemented into the game yet… The only casual game type currently as of this post are Warzone Firefight and a handful of arena playlists like Infection, Grifball, Action Sack and BTB. If 343 would just make social playlists for the current ranked playlists the game would have more population and it would be more fun and bring more variety to Halo 5. We didn’t need Covenant Slayer to appear for a week when it could have been Social CTF that could stay forever!
Leave your thoughts on what you think about the lack of certain social playlists.
I would honestly love more Social Playlists, it helps people get more creative with their maps with REQs now being in Forge. Plus, I play nervously when my rank is at risk.

Yeah it isn’t fun to play solo and then match a team it’s pretty much an instant loss for me.
I really hope that they add a Team Objective Social Playlist. It would be nice to have some classic objective playlists like KOTH, Oddball, Juggernaut, CTF variants (1 flag, multi flag etc.), Assault variants (1 bomb etc.), Headhunter, Broslayer, Team Regicide, and the list goes on. There are a lot of objective gametypes so hopefully 343 would make Team Objective permanent and just rotate different objective gametypes every week or every other week. It would be nice if they brought back the voting system for the gametypes like they used to have when Halo 5 first released for the weekly playlist. It would also be nice for the playlist to be 5v5.

I understand having so many playlists makes the game have a more spread out population thus finding the same people in that playlist, but is it really that hard to add like 3 or 4 that replica the ranked playlists we have?

I’m the same, sadly I find myself rarely playing ranked playlist because most days when I finish work I’m not on my A game.
It’s kinda sad how I do that but I’d rather not be ranked than get put in a bad tier because I wasn’t feeling it that day. That’s just how I feel.
I play social a lot more as I don’t feel I need to have 100% concentration.

I would like there to be some custom maps made for it though. I wouldn’t play it if it was just arena maps yuck
Team objective social would be nice, as well as 4-4 Team Slayer soical. They won’t do either though unfortunately
Very least team objective would be good. Put CTF, KOTH, Oddball (oddball is so good, no idea why it’s not in halo 5 matchmaking) and I personality really liked headhunter. I think that was a great game type. Would love to see it back.
Honestly I have never understood a lot with what they have done with playlists most notably why Slayer and Objective game types have been merged together. It never fails when I feel like playing slayer I get CTF and when I want to play objective its just slayer, (man what being able to vote for a map could fix…)
Halo 3 had playlists done right with ranked and social variants of team slayer, free for all, objective etc.

343 love to change unimportant parts, I mean not only the lack of social playlists but some game breaking bugs are still here, I had faith it would be fixed but I can’t trust them to change anything at the moment that includes playlists.
