Is it just me that thinks the option of 'Lives' in FireFight should be able to be enabled/disabled in the Pregame lobby?

Question is, would you like to have the option to enable or disable the Lives system when gaming in the FireFight game mode?

I do not appreciate B.Net Group solicitation. If you ignore this and send me an invitation anyway, I will block communications with you.

The most customizable the better, but if someone is intent on measuring their abilities on a single life, they can always either run their lives down to zero and "start" then, or simply stop playing once their whole team has died.

From the menu, it doesn't look like there's any Game Settings for Firefight, so I wouldn't hold my breath.

I see what you mean, but it would really reduce the need to survive if you had unlimited lives. I like the way it sounds - survive a round, get more lives.

I didn't know about that, I thought you got a set number of lives and that's it.

For more experienced players that are trying to challenge themselves, they wouldn't need it. But it would be good for guests who aren't as good at Halo and tend to die a lot. I've seen a way to set the lives to infinite to every multiplayer game I've ever played, so why wouldn't Halo, especially since you can in Custom Matches?

That would be awesome, if you want to just play for fun. They can disable achievements while you have infinite lives on, so it's not too easy.
