343 has kept SWAT in the playlist rotation for weeks, I think it’s time they added a little variety to this game type.
SWAT Classic
Loadout: Battle Rifle
Pistol(Optional)
SWAT Tribute
Loadout: DMR
Pistol(Optional)
SWAT Convie
Loadout: Carbine
Pistol(Optional)
SWAT Pistols
Loadout: Pistol(Only)
And of course still keeping regular SWAT with the DMR and BR for all the other plays who prefer that game type.
DOES ANYONE ELSE THINK THE LIGHT RIFLE WILL BE GREAT IN SWAT???
AM I ALONE ON THIS ONE??? cries and drowns in tears…
An idea I had mentioned awhile back to some of my friends in terms of SWAT variants if they come up in the future:
Laser tag- SWAT with the Lightrifle.

^ this has to go in, like NOAW, PLZ!
This would be a cool thing to see. I would love SWAT classic. And SWAT is one of my favorite playlists.
Alien SWAT
Loadouts:
Carbine
Primary: Carbine
Secondary: PP
LightRifle
Primary: LightRifle
Secondary: Boltshot
I can’t believe I forgot about the Light Rifle!!! Wow that would be a nice one!
Nice ideas, but i’d like to see a playlist thats just mindless fun
I.E shotty swat, hammer swat and grenade pistol swat.
Just mindless fun that can be enjoyed.
Shotty Swat was in H3, and it was ranked back then.
That was so crap.
I wouldn’t mind if it existed, but I would like to see similar ideas show up in Snipers, along with having that playlist return as a permanent one.
Hammer Snipers? Silly, amusing and different, but somewhat harmless.
NO! Leave it the way it is now.
Team Swat needs to let you choose between BR and DMR, some maps are great to use dmr, and some need to use BR.
Adrift = dmr, why? crossmap shots needs dmr scope for better accuracy.
Haven = battlerifle, since the shot is hella overpower on short distances.
I want SWATgun. That was my fav variation of SWAT. No shields close quarters and everyone has a shotty…can’t go wrong.
no boltshot in swat if they ever have an alien version
I am all for this. SWAT is a pretty fun gametype but it does need some variety.

They would still have the original SWAT like it is now included but with variations like in previous Halo MM
I would like H3 style with BR pistol loadout and carbines on map. Lightrifle would be interesting. Am I the only one who thinks the DMR shouldn’t be in SWAT.
I would not disagree to more variation in a playlist these days.
The irony with SWAT is that SWAT actually means Special Weapons and Tactics. It is probably the least tactical game type in all of HALO and does not use any special weapons. Still great fun though.
You could have objective game types that discourage camping:
SWAT Extraction. Pistol Starts. Full UNSC ordnance drops. Extraction game type
SWAT Go. Pistol Starts. Full UNSC ordnance drops. King of the Hill game type with an increased point bonus for being in the hill and shorter hill times.
SWAT Domination. Pistol Starts. Full UNSC ordnance drops. Dominion game type.
You get the picture…
