Strongeholds is Fun! But Not What I Expected

Strongholds appears to be a take on KOTH and Dominion, with you earning points by capturing zones but needing two of those zones to start earning points. However, so far these strongholds aren’t much of strongholds… more like a small tube with hard light moving around it. I expected like the little Dominion base pieces and shield doors scattered around the bases. I love Strongholds, great take on the classic KOTH, but for the full game, I’d like to see more crates, monitors, etc in the bases just to give it the feel of a Stronghold. And speaking of Dominion, please bring it back. I loved that gametype so much in Halo 4, one of the best!

Seems like something fitting of BTB maps.

I too liked Dominion, and I feel like it didn’t get enough love. Mix it in with a few elements of invasion, increase the scope a bit, and it would have been the perfect BTB experience. I just played my first strongholds match. Got my -Yoink- kicked, but fun.

Stronghold is good but feels like it needs more players. With 4v4 not many people seem to try capturing zones alone so in the games i have played it was mostly teams just doing laps capturing zones and hardly running into the enemy team at all.

Isn’t Stronghold just a new name for 3-Plot…? : /

What, we can’t throw a few crates or a monitor onto the bases for Empire?
