Agreed man. Poor replacement indeed.
Lol and people thought LSS was āsweatyā. Wait until the SBMM algorithm kicks in after a few matches and watch the real sweating begin.
As far back as i can remember team doubles has always been the most try hard game mode. It is honestly the first thing i think of when i think of ranked Halo. I dont see myself playing this mode as all of my friends are apparently smarter than me and all stopped playing this game a long time ago.
Iād never solo que into this. Ever.
Ranked doubles is controller only which is ridiculous. Can you imagine releasing a game on PC where one of the playlists doesnāt let you use a mouse & keyboard?
Yeah personally I think it belonged in the rumble pit rotation
Same I Iāve place high diamond and get onyx quick in normal 4v4 ranked. But in doubles I got gold 5.
I am not a fan of Team Doubles at all. It would probably be a lot different if I had someone still playing to pair up with me.
I did my five matches for the Ulitimate challenge and I am done with it.
I didnāt mind slayer, but King of the Hill is not fun. I didnāt mind CTF, but I only played one match of it and we won.
It seems a bit buggy. It says controller input but I played x play with my kid on a pc. But when we tried to play normal ranked arena it said problem with the servers. Clearly the update messed up the system. And desync is worse than ever.
Couldnāt POSSIBLY be more wrong! Iām loving doubles already, its a team focused mode and Iāve had a blast in the few games Iāve played. Not missing LSS, but do not believe it shouldnāt come back, it just cannot be the way it was before.
However there is one BIG PROBLEM. It appears that ranked doubles is controller only currently, that is ridiculous. Iām hoping that social doubles can be played on a keyboard and mouse because that is a slap in the face to crossplay PC gamers with a mode thatās about team focused competitive play. NO CROSSPLAY FOR DOUBLES?! Halo has always been a team-oriented experience and thatās why Season 2 has been bittersweet.
My friend (m/k) and I (con) played 4 matches of ranked doubles on Tuesday.
Played one match against a duo. Not really my cup of tea as a pug. LSS was much more fun.
Ctf is team doubles plays really poorly. It should be removed.
Mic challengesā¦. Can we just start asking for a 1v1 playlist then? Itās super frustrating when teammates donāt have mics. Regardless of team size. Communication is so essential.
Everything spawns to fast, why do 343 always have to do what 343 do.
Leave spawns, it makes the game about tactics and gun play not just power spawns and if you miss them yes you might suffer but you will have enough time between them too catch up the kills,
BR starts
Itās fun. Feels like the perfect game for when only one of my buddies is online since we used to play Ranked Teams in Solo/Duo queue. Duos is a fun middle ground that isnāt so fast paced and as sweaty in my opinion l.
Its easily my least favorite mode. Quite annoying when I have challenges I cant swap in that mode.
