Will Assault return in Halo 4?

I’ve been wondering this for quite a long time and it still hasn’t been confirmed if Assault (One bomb, neutral bomb) will return in Halo 4. Quite frankly I don’t know why it wouldn’t return since its basically a franchise classic gametype. As a BTB player who loves playing some Assault I would be very disappointed to hear if it wasn’t to return.

I may have actually missed something here but I am pretty sure that they haven’t confirmed anything on it. What do you guys think? Will it return? Would you be disappointed if it doesn’t?

Unknown at this time.

That could fit in with the new Dominion game type. Enemy sets up base, you run in with bomb, enemy no longer has base.

:frowning:

if they cut assault, i will be immensely disappointed. and will have to rectify this by making CTF gametypes where you start with the enemy flag at your base and the capture point in theirs!

It’s not, but i’m sure we can change Grifball so that it’s like normal Assault.

Grifball WAS Assault right? I’m sure ut will return, it was very popular in Competitive Objective like MLG Tournaments.

As much as I hate to say this I don’t think it will be in. There has been no mention of it whatsoever and I’m pretty sure they’ve shown all the game types. I really hope I’m wrong and they’re hiding it up their sleeve but it seems like they simply just cut it and thought we would be fine with their bastardized version of CTF. Oddball and Dominion look like they might be fun but not including Assault would be a big mistake. If it’s not in the game they should definitely add it free of charge post launch.

Also, Grifball was Assault in the PREVIOUS games but I believe now it is its own game type. It doesn’t even blow up when you reach the other team’s base, and they use an Oddball instead of a bomb so I think that is reason enough to believe it won’t be there.
