Regicide is… well… Regicide sucks. But the new playlist today is awesome! From launch, I wanted a real FFA Slayer playlist, and 343 delivered this week. I just wish the time limit wasn’t so long. Every game I have played ends in time running out.
Da -Yoink- did i just read?
I really don’t see the Hate for Regicide.
It’s free for all, just the guy who is winning has a tag over their head…so?

Somebody who is trying the new playlist while waiting for snipers, like a patient, sane, human being.

When someone kills the king they get extra points too, up to 35 bonus points.
IMO, FFA Throwback is a nice playlist to do ‘kill farm’ or ‘kd boost’.
regicide is horrible. Where is lone wolves, where is snipers, doubles, grifball…why do they have the boring playlists. If you look at war games, 80% of people are either playing infinity slayer, BTB or swat, do they not get the hint?

But it doesn’t get added to their score? I thought, like infinity slayer, that you get the points rewarded to your exp but the kills (10 points) are the ones that win you matches.
90% of the people are missing the joke in this topic 
I was not a real big fan of Regicide.
Was way to random for me.
I gonna check the new FFA playlist for sure.

Its not real FFA, FFA should be based on who has the most kills not the most points. A person who has less kills can win in regicide where they wouldn’t win in a real FFA
Im pretty sure they see whats going on. Especially if we can see whats going on. And they said if the weekly update playlists are more popular then the current ones they will replace the lowest populated one with the weekly one. So in a few weeks all of our most wanted playlists will be there and the ones that aren’t played so much wont. Then when that happens you all will complain about not having the option to play KOtH and CTF and OddBall. And a lot of people are playing Infinity Slayer and Big Team Infinity Slayer because its super fun. You think if all the “old” playlist were in they wouldn’t still be the most popular?
Still waiting for FFA Slayer.

it is added to other players’ scores when the kill the king. It is literally a game that rewards you for staying in 2nd place all game, and going negative. The king also gets Overshields at 30 seconds alive, and Damage Boost at 90 seconds. These powerups can be applied mid fight, and are unpredictable. The gametype is a random mess-around gametype for casuals, not a replacement to FFA.
But that is hardly the point of this topic; it is about the new FFA Slayer playlist.

Winning FFA Slayer means that I will go negative. The majority of players are going for nothing but kills, anyway. It is essentially an extended Slayer match.
Both Regicide and Throwback FFA are awful. Oddball and KotH didn’t work in other Halo FFA playlists and just relied on lucky spawns rather than skill. But at least in H3 the weighting on objective gametypes were lowered and people would actually veto it majority of the time.
Like someone said few posts ago FFA is now a k/d booster as gameplay in objective games are random and even more of a cluster -Yoink- than previous objective FFAs thanks to instant respawn. As well as the fact the game gives no incentive to win with the lack of rank so people adopt the CoD mentality of just stat -Yoink!-.
