The Song Of Nephilim

Xenoblade <3

Hopefully next month 343 will actually make some changes to Invasion. I would personally love to see Ridgeline and Breakneck as Invasion maps. They also need to put down the weighting of Spire and Boneyard. Some custom variant maps would be really good also.

Invasion is probably one of my favourite playlists in the game. Instead of a spawn kill fest on Spire and Boneyard, What would you like to see 343 do?

Bungie created the host-selection system.

And you know this how?


LOL, Mains kids

I would like to see them delete the playlist. Such a stupid idea.

i agree with ridge line and breakneck becomeing invasion maps, It would be nice if there were some custom invasion maps aswell. mayby make the capture zones somewhat farther away from the Core.

*Sigh..*

OT: 343i needs to decrease the max/console down to two, that way custom invasion maps would be possible.

Ohai, I'm Loscocco (pronounced Loss-cocoa). I'm a college student (computer science major), 3D animator, and long-time Halo player.

I think success on Boneyard and Spire needs to be a bit more achievable. Boneyard's core almost never gets out of the building/delivered and Spire's first tier is way too easy to defend if you're playing against a team that is at least half-decent.

Other than that, new maps would be pretty interesting.

I don't play Grifball.

However I'd play Grifball over Invasion.

I really do agree with that. I just want a change. Spire is just extremely repetitive, and so is Boneyard.

The shotgun/AL loadout needs to go.

The spartans need a DMR or 2 to pickup in first tier spire.

More Maps.

If these things happen, I will be very happy.

Relax. I'd rather not piss this thing off.

I really dont want to see Tu in the playlist of invasion, but some new maps would be great.

its not a stupid idea. Just the method bungie used to implement it was stupid.

Someone doesn't know how to play it.

Invasion has had a consistent population since Reach launched despite only having a few maps. It is the only playlist where default Reach mechanics work well together and it is a unique gametype that requires a special mentality to play.

If you don't like it you're more than welcome to play anything else. But it's here to stay, and it's in dire need of an update.

OT: Boneyard and Spire don't need their weightings reduced, and they aren't a spawn kill fest unless you play with randoms/against randoms (the latter of which is stupid if you decide to spawn kill for stats, but w/e).

Breakneck and Ridgeline make horrible Invasion maps by the way. Many have tried and failed to adapt them to Invasion and they just simply aren't cut out for it.

Use the concussion rifle. Stop trying to fight shotgun campers up close

So what--Elites can pick up your DMRs off your dead body and have more weapons to pick you off with at range? They can already pick up your pistols.

The only change that needs to be made to the current Invasion maps is the relocation of the Spire Banshee.

Boltshot = mini shotgun

If the update happens, I'm hoping for fixed loadouts(shotgun loadout is a -blam- to deal with) and some new maps in the playlist.
I would love to see some high quality custom maps especially in Invasion.

I, Perosnally think they should not allow guests in Invasion. The main reason is; If They quit there goes half your teams firepower. Which in retrospect, Guests almost always quit.

This needs to happen. Like now.

Call me Stu

Add new/popular invasion maps to playlist.(Not dlc ones) Otherwise we will have the same problem we have with breakpoint and improved versions (if possible) to spire and boneyard.

If they are not going to work as invasion maps, then I think custom invasion maps are the only way to save the playlist and make it better.

Whatever you do, don't apply that TU nonsense in Invasion. I'm sick and tired of this bleedthrough garbage as it is.

Other than that, I don't care what they do with it.
