Warzone is cool and nice in that you get the mixture of everything, but the pacing is slow and no where near as intense as assault.
There is nothing better in assault than beating a team while on offense when the defending team calls in 2 scorpions and 2 wraiths and you still beat them, while on defense getting 1300 req points for playing 6 minutes.
Who agrees
I feel like assault ends too quickly.
They both have their advantages, but it’s mostly subjective.
Agreed, opinionated. I personally didn’t enjoy my experience with Assault. Perhaps I’ll give it more time.
I personally like Assault, mainly because it is generally 15 mins long and its a great way to gain XP and RP
As an attacker; I’ve only won once 
RAID on Apex 7 is almost impossible to take the spire in WZ Assault.
its the most frustrating game mode though because h=of how annoying team shooting in halo 5 is
I think calling it Warzone - Assault kind of makes it feel like the stepchild of Warzone instead of it being it’s own entity, but thats fine.
Assault is incredibly frustrating, and will agree with people who think that, but that’s more because it’s a who imposes your will over the other type of game. I literally can’t stand being on the “bad” team and feeling useless, but I love being on defense and winning the first round, or even winning at the core, as well as being assault and trying to find the best method to beat a team.
I also don’t use super duper req cards yet, so I am willing to accept losses when other teams are calling in tanks and there is nothing I can do, but I’ll use speed and shield boosts, sniper rifles at the core, fuel rods, shotties, etc.
I think I would like regular warzone more if the team sizes were increased, there have been a few times where I’m just shooting AI creatures by myself and it felt like I was playing campaign or something
I usually don’t have many people to play with, so I find it hard to win by just playing warzone. NOBODY HELPS ME KILL BOSSES. So recently I’ve switched to assault which is really fun. I just hate being on offense.

That’s the other thing, I actually am a fan of non-equally balanced gametypes (as opposed to weapons), because in the long run, as long as you’re on each side 50/50, if the game type and circumstances are fun enough, one side being the challenge is fine to me. That’s not to say, that being on offense is necessarily the “disadvantage,” it just feels like it is because the burden is on you to cap while the defense can camp, so it “probably” is. Unless we know for sure based on documentation somewhere then yea.
I’m not even sure what the win/loss % is for offense and defense, same with K/D, but I’ve gotten over that for this gametype as long as I feel like I’m competing relatively well. The only time I’ll actually “care” about getting melted on offense running in is if there’s a minute left or less and I am absurdly confident based on how my team has played we have no chance of winning, then I’ll start to just hang out on the fringe. Otherwise, the frustration of being on offense is intoxicating.
I wish there was a mode like Assault but instead of attack/defense it’s neutral so both teams have to defend their base.
I would like it also if there was “BTB assault” in the BTB playlist that’s like Assault but BTB instead of Warzone.
i prefer warzone over warzone assault because its a great gamemode where you can use different ways to control a map, in assault you have to just destroy a target that could take minutes to do
