Please give us a version of firefight like ODST and Reach had. The feeling and atmosphere was completely different. You didn’t scavenge the map for enemies like what we have now, you hid. You got your buddies together and you fought to survive. You didn’t go find enemies, they found you. With each wave, AI started taking more bullets. Elites’ shields started getting harder to break. Everything got harder and harder with each and every round. You didn’t jump out and ground pound a crowd of enemies, you stayed together with teammates and saved every last bullet you could. Your heart dropped every time you heard a dropship overhead. I’m sure this has gone through the minds of the developers constantly, but they have been catering to the community nonetheless.
No time limit - Only objective- Survive the onslaught - Limited lives - Bonus round - do I really have to keep listing the components of classic firefight?

That would be awesome. It’s all speculation from here on
The new firefight PISSED me off. They just used the term firefight to get people interested, but this isn’t firefight. I feel as though I’m just playing the campaign, with tons of AI thrown at me. Firefight should never end in 15 minutes. I rarely even died or found the game difficult. No waves or anything. Just annoying. Plus, I will never spend reqs on AI’s. I finish in the top tier of every match, but only use my loadouts.

It definitely has it’s similarities, but I agree on needing more challenge
I do think it’s important to keep the current BETA mode as well. I mean, of course add to it (brutes, humans, flood, maps, objectives, etc) but it being short (5 rounds) and decently easy to complete is very important for MM. Much like Reach (it’s even easier if you guys haven’t tried it).
Some people (myself NOT one of these people) love Halo but don’t enjoy MM. It is very important to have a means to progress in level / REQ for them, and for people that do like MM to have a chill alternative to ‘farm’ REQ / chill alone or with friends and just have fun.
I do agree with having your survival mode, as another playlist, however. I think custom games / offline should have fully customizable like Reach did.
Survival mode would bring tears of joy to my eyes. Especially it we just get access to the basic variants of the 5 loadout weapons, spawn, and go. Revival, not respawn - if you die, you come back at the end of a wave.

Firefights used to last about 15 mins in reach. You died a lot from what I saw. And you did not finish in top tier.

It doesn’t matter where you finish, It’s about having fun… I guess no one plays halo for fun…
