Tenrai: Never ask me to play Fiesta again

I did it, I completed the progression. I now never ever ever ever ever ever want to play Fiesta again in any capacity what so ever absolutely never again.

Please attach a better mode to your next fracture, because if you attach Fiesta to the eventual Viking fracture I am going to absolutely explode.

Basically sums up my experience perfectly. I always liked fiesta but this game has made me hate it

I know some people are going to think this is lame, but I hate playing games like Fiesta and Griffball because they impact your global KD :confused:

It’s definitely going to be an ongoing problem with these fracture events. Fiesta is one of the most popular modes in the community and people have been burnt out from it as far back as the first week of tenrai. Imagine if the fracture was something less popular like an objective mode. People would be pissed. The next one will probably be something like Infection or Shotty Snipers

Even if it was Fiesta over and over, would’ve been a lot different if they had the variants in the event rotation.

So you decided to do all the challenges in 5 hours? It’s no wonder you are feeling burnt out with it.

do you want to play some fiesta?
Come on, let’s go and play!
I never see you anymore
Come out from ranked
It’s like you’ve gone away

We used to be best doubles
And now we’re not
I wish you would tell me why!

Yeah honestly, why have we had four weeks of the EXACT same thing. A niche mode that people kind of play to enjoy and tend not to care, now loaded with specific challenges to do. One week was enough of this, it’s just lazy at this point

Yea I’ve already played more fiesta in infinite that I probably ever did in all previous halo games combined. 1/5 games in action sack being fiesta isn’t bad, but having to play 15+ (probably higher for others as I optimize my challenges pretty well I think) fiesta games during a given week, 3+ times sucks frankly.

I dunno, I think Attrition and the Cyber Showdown event were received really well. I know that’s more of a slayer variant than objective variant, but still…

I can’t wait for shotty sniper events though :grin:

I love Fiesta as an FFA gametype. I don’t mind it as a 4v4, but it isn’t the best.

In Infinite I’d say it’s currently my 3rd favourite playlist. Mainly because I prefer ranked and the ranked offering is limited.

The gamemode itself was fun, the reception of it wasn’t too hot since it was a sweatfest for most of the event

The entire problem with how 343 does their Events, and by extension their challenges, is how they keep pidgeon holing players to play ONE MODE.

This is what they should have done:

Tenrai : Fiesta rules for BTB and Quickplay modes are added.

Cyber : Attrition rules for BTB and Quick play modes are added.

Incoming Tact Event : Tactical slayer rules for BTB and Quick play.

So everytime a new event arrives, you get to mixup other modes with the ruling of the event game type instead of forcing all players to play that one single mode.

It’s not so much Fiesta that bothers me, but the challenge system. Kill with this weapon, win X fiesta games, stop killing sprees, earn killing sprees, earn 10 double kills, etc…

They make what used to be a fun casual mode into something just sweaty and unenjoyable.

hope you’re ready for 343 to do the exact same thing, most likely with other gamemodes. like infection, king of the hill, vip, headhunter, etc… assuming 343 even cares about other fan loved gamemodes

They do. It’s just that they will be added one by one as time goes on. This is a game planned to have a decade of live service updates and content.

Had to get one kill with the rocket launcher on fiesta for a challenge. For four games this chart explains how many rockets my team and the enemy team received.

My team is on the left and enemy is on the right.

0 1
0 6
0 3
1 1

Then steal their rockets by using whatever power-weapons the game gave you to your advantage to kill your enemy and get the boomies.

I am envious of your position.
