Warzone looks good and all but I’ve already missed firefight with halo 4 , it can’t not be in halo 5, honestly don’t 343 realise how important firefight is? I enjoyed so many hours on reach with firefight, by myself and with friends, is it really that hard to make a generic play space and have AI drop into it? it’s not like it would cost a lot, or even take much time, you have all the assets. I don’t even want any changes from reach, firefight could be exactly the same in halo 5 as it was in reach and I’d be fine with it, it just needs to be there.
let it die. LET IT DIE!
Warzone has AIs that you fight. There are just other players to fight as well and along side you. It’s like BTB & Firefight had a baby and it was awesome.
And it was only in 2 games. It was Halo’s answer to horde mode and, in my opinion, it got kinda boring after a while. I only played it in Reach to farm cR’s for helmets. ODST’s was pretty fun, though.
Also, with backwards compatibility we’ll be able to play every single Halo game on Xbox One now. So we’ll have ODST & Reach’s Firefights to play. And before you say “what about a new one?” give Warzone a shot. Everyone keep asking for new and exciting things, and they came up with something huge here. It’s the entire Halo 5 sandbox on one map + 24 player PVP + a Firefight-esque PVE with bosses. And they can’t introduce new things and include all the old stuff every game or eventually you run into a problem where you just have way too much going on (like having campaign, matchmaking, customs, forge, theater, firefight, spartan ops, warzone, etc. all in one game).
So the way I see it, since we’re getting the entire back catalog of Halo games on Xbox One and can enjoy them and all of their features, let Halo 5 do something new.
I don’t believe 343i has implicitly stated there is no PVE dedicated multiplayer mode. I hope they do include something, but even if they dont, we can always play the campaign. Makes for a good 4 player PVE environment.
Firefight isn’t important though. It was only in two games. There is a reason that it was removed. Spartan Ops was better in my opinion. Now if they got rid of BTB I would understand, but firefight sucked in Reach but was fun in ODST.
Back on Reach and ODST.
I’m hoping some post-launch update will add a third Warzone mode similar to Firefight. I think Josh Holmes said something about it actually.
They might add it post-launch. They’ve spent most of their time on Warzone, so when they have the time they’re probably going to add other game modes and features that have been requested the most by the community.

Good intel here. Thanks for sharing. If the community fanbase pushes for a dedicated PVE mode, they might just get it eventually is what that sounds like.
Holmes words relevant to this conversation:
> Q: (summarized) Any plans for a warzone mode that is dedicated PVE?
> A: Not for launch but it could be interesting to explore post-launch if there is enough interest from fans.
Time to make a mega thread i guess…
I fully support this feature as well. Warzone looks good, but it could be way better if it (or a similar mode) has the PvE option for those of us that want to hone our skills, explore the maps, or just to play by ourselves/with a few friends against hordes of AI. If Firefight and Spartan Ops from past games weren’t restricted to random online players then surely this feature can make it into next-gen, no?
Looking forward to these potential changes post-launch, 343!

I thought I was the only one who thought of this, I enjoyed FireFight in ODST a lot but in Reach it was mehh?? Like I really don’t like any of the Reach maps and I never played the last DLC one.
I think it was put in the lost and found basket back in 2011.
