In Firefight, there'll be skulls that will increase the difficulty off the game. However, should there be an option to turn off certain skulls over the course of the game?

For Firefight related achievements, maybe all skulls would have to be on, but there still should be an option for turning skulls off. Sometimes people don't want a challenge, they just want to murder the Covenant.

The whole idea of the skulls automatically turning on is that it adds a new level of innovative gameplay. God I sound like such a fanboy..

Well turning them off would give casual/ less skilled players a chance to have fun.

That is a good point, however, the firefight mode was designed to get progressively harder as you move through waves. Therefore the skulls would not be activated until later in the match giving the "casual gamer" a chance.
