I was just wondering, when is BTB CTF going to become a thing again. Why was it removed? Are there any plans for its reintroduction?
Capture the Flag was never in Halo 4’s Big Team playlist considering it has only contained Infinity Slayer until last week 
They attempted to bump up Team Objective’s team sizes to 6v6 and claim it was ‘BTB Objective’ but its population is low and obviously it isn’t 8v8.
There is a playlist consolidation coming soon, and if anything, Team Objective will be reverting back to its prior state and hopefully they will add gametypes like CTF and Extraction to Big Team Infinity Slayer (and rename the damn playlist to Big Team Battle too!
)

I mean removed from Halo overall. I know BTB Objective took a bit of a hit with Reach, but it quite literally disappeared off the face of Halo since 4. I’m glad the consolidation is finally coming… I think 343 kinda realised that the CoD method of having 1 gametype per playlist just doesn’t work with lower pop. sizes.
Sadly, I don’t think 343 will ever bring back Objective for BTB even though people keep posting threads asking for it.
I’m optimistic. The Team objective 6x6 clearly didn’t do the trick, and the seven months of “it wasn’t broke, why fix it” have to start seeping through eventually 
All for renaming the playlists. Tacking Infinity on to multiplayer was a great shot at making things canonical but sometimes you just don’t need the backstory. Overthought and overcomplicated IMHO.

I wouldn’t be so sure, they are reworking Team Objective in the future again which they said they’d do if this idea didn’t work (which is didn’t).
Hopefully with the upcoming consolidation they will revert Objective to what it was and add CTF & other gametypes like Extraction into BTIS and rename the playlist to Big Team Battle.

CTF is still available in Halo games you know? That includes both Halo: Reach & Halo 3.
Unless I’m misunderstanding?
It seems BTB OBJ is not in line with their “vision” for H4 Infinity BTB of everyone gets power weapons and vehicles going boom.
Otherwise why would they take out one sided OBJ take out bomb variants you know the stuff that made previous Halo games so much better?
Objective Games were really my biggest draw to BTB in Halo 3.
I’ve been hoping it would come back, I’ve barely played BTB because of it.
