I am concerned about my favorite gamemode in all of halo, Firefight. It has not been even mentioned in passing by the devs and that makes me scared it will not be in the game at or near launch. I believe that Firefight is a very important gamemode but more than that, a very important community. Just as important as the communities surrounding forge or co-op campaign. So I feel that we deserve to know as much as they do whether Firefight will be here at launch or whether we will have to wait for it after launch. Thank you for listening.
P.S. Please add scarabs and even more customization to firefight.
They have not commented on a single occasion about the multiplayer PVE modes, and as a primarily PVE player I am concerned about the lack of content for launch.
yeah, I’ve been super disappointed by the lack of firefight in 343i’s halo. firefight to me was the perfect casual mode for warming up before matches or just having fun with halo’s gunplay fighting the covenant. custom settings letting you create your own firefight also added a ton of replayability. it’s sad such a huge component of reach was scrapped to make room for lackluster experimental modes.
though since infinite is a live service game, I definitely feel like its going to be added eventually. but when is anyone’s guess.
Firefight is the main thing I play in MCC, and the only thing I touch in Halo 5 now, so having no word on it yet is a bit concerning. I really hope they don’t think bots are a good substitute for traditional PvE modes like Firefight, because they are not.
Bot modes are cool and all, but we had better be getting a phenomenal and lengthy campaign to make up for the lack of Firefight. Also, I hope 343 understands that most people want something more like ODST’s Firefight. Reach Firefight and Warzone Firefight would be cool as other options as well, but survival focused Firefight is where it’s at.

Well I think that something like reach firefight would be perfect. This is because Reach let you do anything and it wasn’t buggy and monetized like warzone firefight. I mean in reach you could survive like in ODST or do a silly gamemode you made which made it fun and interesting for all crowds.
I hope it’s there for launch. And not the bogus fake firefight we got in Halo 5, bring back reach firefight. I wanna be able to customize waves and enemies. Plus, if there’s forge-able AI like the leaks tell us, this would be such a missed opportunity.

I’m guessing you didn’t get to play the MCC Season 8 flight. They are going to add all of the Reach options + Flood + Elites + Sentinels to ODST in Season 8, making it the superior Firefight game.
It helps that ODST is more of a survival mode than Reach. You need to be more defensive in it and you aren’t fed as many power weapons or infinite ammo for regular UNSC weapons.

I can understand where you’re coming from but there are things that reach firefight can do that ODST can’t like PvP with playable elites. This I feel comes down to personal preference as both the more wacky and fast paced nature of Reach does not make it any worse than ODST. I like both. Infinite just needs to give us customization to such a degree that we can have any experience we want. But not warzone firefight that one can leave. Also I did do the season 8 flights.
