To be honest, when I think of Halo, I think of;
-Story
-Matchmaking
-Shoot, grenade, melee, -Yoink!-
-Custom games
And when I think of custom games, I think of infection. I know I’m not alone when I say it’s CRAZY fun to round of a bunch of friends, and play infection on a custom map. So what are you hoping to see in Halo 4 related to infection?
I would personally love to see a return of the living dead playlist, but with a few changes. Like headshots only, no radar, no camping spots or choke points where zombies get just owned by humans, and NO Boardwalk-ish map that gets picked. Every. Single. Time.
I hope that there’ll be playlist that feature community infection maps, like in Halo 3.
I’m hoping to see flood infected skins, I would think that it could be doable, even if they can’t get it out the door on release, they could put it in a later DLC now that everyone has to download/install all the multiplayer maps to play multiplayer.
For it to return as a weekend playlist, so that players aren’t drawn away from regular matchmaking…
We buy Halo to play Halo…
Regular players are pleased with the larger populations for their playlists, and living dead fans will have twice as much fun in the weekend because it’s rare to play.
Game modes:
Braaaains
Save one bullet (For maps with chokepoints where people will camp this gamemode will even it out)
Alpha zombies
Also i’ve always wanted a game mode where you can pick up weapons on the map like BR’s, AR’s and so on
Settings/maps:
Maps made for infetcion like in H3(and better made than the ones made in Reach)
small or no radar(10m max)
Ability to pick up dead humans ammo
No friendly fire
No grenades
No overshield for the last man standing
Camo or overshield pick-ups as a help for the zombies in modes like Braaaains or Alpha zombies (Not needed for all gamemodes or maps tho)
And last but not least: Double exp weekends! (So the population will stay high on regular playlists and you’ll feel an erge to play living dead again. This’ll also keep the coustom games going since you can’t always play zombies in wargames)
I hope that it’s either reserved for dbl xp weekends or that infection, grifball, and race are all put into ONE playlist instead of each of them having their own.

I would settle for either of those. Or just throw them in something similar to the action sack.
All those game types really do lose their punch when they become a permanent fixture.
