Why is BTB 8v8 instead of 12v12?

Why can’t we have 12v12 in BTB, since we already know it’s possible in Warzone?

12v12 Strongholds anyone? That just would kick -Yoink-!

Why not 16v16? Just imagine certain modes allowing 2 or 3 full warthog groups per team to roll around. But agree 12v12 is what BTB should be.

The BTB maps are too small for 12v12

Giddy up!
in my Kramer voice

Let’s do 100 v 100, each person spawning in with a scorpion tank, on the smallest map available.

Oh yea infinite rocket ammo too.

Ok I was making an honest suggestion, big team slayer on huge maps where squads of warthogs can make or break the match and gets the action up and roaring like in campaign.

Nothing’s too small for max players. I remember Reach having Countdown in their BTB rotation. I always thought smaller maps were always better for BTB due to more carnage. More carnage is kind of what defines BTB. More kills. More craziness. Who doesn’t love it?

It’s been a while since I played any other halo, what were the teams in the older ones ?? I suppose 8v8 is… what were stuck with so it’ll have to do hahaha… sigh

Its probably 8v8 just because they’re sticking to tradition or they don’t want to make any bigger maps.

This.
I’d love to see 12v12 BTB though.

8v8 because it’s double the normal 4v4

The maps? You mean forge maps and 12v12 isn’t too big for those maps let alone Warzone.
They could easily put Btb classic 8v8 then Btb large 12v12, 16v16 or 20v20 but they didn’t soooo yaaaaaaay~

size of map doesn’t have any thing to do with how many people can play it cause they all pretty much stay where every body is the size involves fight locations

I don’t think the Arena maps were built to be able to handle it tech wise. Otherwise just 343 trying to separate Warzone as its own separate entity.

I still remember playing a BTB on Lockout in Halo 2, was insanely fun and crazy at the same time!

Some of you guys find the stupidest crap to complain about. They are releasing a new game mode 2WEEKS from release and 4 maps for FREE!!
The answer is because it’s always 8v8. It’s the perfect balance for the size of the maps.
If you want to play 12v12 play warzone. Holy crap you people.

Lousy Forge maps. Not something I’m super excited for.

But yes, if you want 12v12 then play Warzone. That’s the whole point of it existing.

Is it for sure forge maps? I know they said they brought in forge creators but did it say they were made with forge? I don’t think they did, but correct me if I’m wrong. I agree it looks a little bland but not near as bland as normal forge maps. There looks to be more texture for sure.

All 4 are forged. The last 2 maps look especially ugly and plastic from the screenshots they have.

I don’t play BTB so I don’t care a whole lot about this but I am a bit pissed on behalf of the BTB fans for how watered down their content is. This isn’t what we expected from “free DLC”.
