It’s good, but I would prefer removing sprint and radar because you can hear the footsteps in this game, that should be your radar. Other than that, the playlist is fun-ish. There were a couple of campers but I know there is nothing to be done for that issue (there is, CS servers use it from time to time).
The maps are very well made. A few things that bothered me were the sounds on some of the maps (the waterfall for example, it’s too loud). AR/SMG should be removed from the map but that is a personal preference.
AR/Pistol start is a huge question mark for me. Don’t know if I like it or if we should only start with pistols.
I thought the games I had were really balanced. I enjoyed playing this actually, and I didn’t think I would. You know I never noticed it till you said it, but yeah the footsteps were really noticeable in this playlist. I wonder if they increased the footstep noise in this playlist because of the lack of radar if you don’t have the power up?
As far as AR/Pistol starts I honestly didn’t use my AR at all, and neither did any of my opponents. I guess I could take it or leave it honestly. I am not sure the AR has any real impact in Halo 5 since any adequate player would destroy you with the pistol before you could kill them with the AR.
The SMG seemed a little OP on these close maps like this though. The ammo limit helped, but they felt like a guarantee kill if you got close enough. I don’t know if I would remove them myself, just simply because the ammo was so low you might only get a kill anyways from them.
I thought the radar was well done. I am glad they only gave about 30 seconds of use, because of the advantages it gave you.
Overall though I really have to give 343 some credit on this playlist. I think they really thought this out and delivered a good product with this playlist. Absolutely brilliant idea to make this round based. The maps chosen were excellent overall for this game mode. I mean usually in every playlist there is a map that I hate in it, and this time I didn’t find myself disliking the maps.

Might be because of the AR being a bit obsolete in favor of the magnum. Maybe have only Battle Rifle starts (H5 version) not the H2 because that is much better.
Removing sprint would need a speed increase, otherwise it would not hold any favor balance wise

Radar is removed. It’s a power up on the map that enables radar for 20 seconds.

Let’s just remove guns. Make it a fist fight. Fyi, not everyone wears headphones or even has headphones. So implying that you can hear steps, defeating the purpose of radar isn’t relevant for all players.
I on the other hand enjoy all aspects of this playlist.
Normally I’m in favor of removing Sprint, but these maps were made specifically with 1v1/Sprint in mind, so I don’t see that happening. In the mean time, using Sprint is now at a detriment to yourself because it’s very loud and you give your position away. You have to use it wisely if you’re trying to survive.
I also love the Motion Detector as a Power-Up. In these small 1v1 encounters, not having a Motion Detector forces you to focus on whats in front of you instead of the bottom left of your screen, but you can get one temporarily to get the edge on your opponent.

I quite like it as a power up. It encourages players to contest it and it’s not a “guaranteed kill” power up like camo or OS.
This game mode feels more like hide and go seek. I spent more time looking for my opponents than actually battling them.
They should make it only pistols no ar and remove sprint or add radar to not make it feel like hide and go seek. The skill will prevail even if they know where each other are, it does for the other game modes and playlist.
Too many times a player would get up 1 kill and hide to eat away time, this is not competitive and should not be ranked yet.

Some of the people that hide are pretty funny. I had one game where my opponent was in the lead for the round and started to hide. This was game 3. I was frustrated at first but then realized I was in the lead for total kills in the entire game. I still walked around and looked for him, but sure enough time ran out and he won the round. I won the entire game.
It was funny to hear him after the match ended. He was surprised he came in second place. I was not.

You don’t know how im agree with you on that point this playlist is a giant hide and seek evrygame is like this I always ragequit because of that the skill required for this playlist is absolutly not in the magnum challenges and that’s a shame
