This new game mode is garbage

Seriously how did they think people would want this over infection ah yes let’s use a objective mode a lot of people don’t like and have that as a game mode heck lets use it as a event and force people to play the mode if they want progress quickly as we are going to make all the challenges related to the mode GENIUS

Now we don’t have to say people barely played that mode

Also lets use the one freaking map that a majority of players who liked ctf hated playing ctf on what could possibly go wrong

Fortunately there is nothing in the event pass I want. I will give this a hard pass.

Just 343 reinforcing how much I hate One Flag and Launch Site.

Worst game type and Worst map? Let’s make a whole event that forces everyone to play it.
-Someone at 343 (probably)

I would quit out of Infinite every time I got Launch Site outside of Fiesta.

Also when can Behemonth and Launch Site get tested as BTB maps. They’re so boring and slow in 4v4 and objective based gametypes.

I understand your position there. I think Launch Site is only good for One Flag sadly. Which nobody really wants to play.

It’s not garbage, people don’t even want to give things a chance anymore. I played it a couple times last night and it was fun. I like the fact they’re switching it up and at least TRYING new and interesting things.

I did give it a try i hated it

I don’t like one flag ctf in infinite never did

Heck i don’t like ctf that much the only times i liked it was in halo 2 and halo 3

And it is garbage as it encourages people to hang around the flag more than the normal one flag and they included behemoth in the map rotation the one map everyone hated playing ctf on as it tends to end in a draw or winning by one point

The CTF mechanics in Infinite ruin the game type. If you’re more familiar with 343i’s take on CTF instead of H2-H3 Bungie’s take on CTF then you’re used to a slower CTF where anything the flag carrier does reveals the flag and ruins flow.

I actually quite enjoyed it.

Took me a few games to get the hang of what I was doing.

Would I like to see it as a regular rotation? - no. Will I play it a lot after I’ve got all the items ticked off - probably not.

But as an event playlist it’s pretty cool. Something different. 343 are -Yoink!- if the do and -Yoink!- if they don’t.

I would have no issue if it wasnt a flag game mode

I despise flag game modes in halo the only times i liked playing the mode was in halo 2 and 3

Also 343 should’ve known that many people don’t like objective that much and if they had the choice they would pick koth or oddball over ctf unless the ctf match in question is on a map they love

Like i want to know how they thought people would want this over something like infection or race

I really enjoy CTF but Covert really sucks the fun out of it for me. I’ll will concede that it’s different to anything else on offer, so it does add variety. It’s just not the type of variety I personally care for, so am a bit jaded about being forced to play it for unlocks.

You know what else would’ve added variety and please more players race,infection or any other game modes that people enjoyed in the past

totally agree.
nobody asked for this, yet here we are.
very upset i came back for the jfo helmet, just to suffer through countless games.

I played exactly one game and it was painful at best. Then after we got the victory the game froze up and booted me out of halo and back to the main Xbox menu… par for the course I suppose. At least the game stopped just short of kicking me in the junk cause that’s about how this all felt

343 won’t learn from all the previous events feedback. Players are frustrated annoyed by being forced to play a single mode type. I think you’ll find players do give new modes a chance but end up complaining here to no avail.

After playing it a bit more to do the challenges, I don’t entirely dislike the mode now. It’s more fun than I initially gave it credit for. But I do dislike that Behemoth is part of it.

Just had another match tonight.

Nailed the last four items.

But really enjoyed it.

If you get a team that actually works together to defend the flag it’s a lot of fun.

Again, we’re probably not talking permanent game mode here - but as an experiment / event I think it’s been pretty good.
