Subject: Invasion Ignored. Again.

In a Bulletin about a month ago, invasion was said to receive an update soon. Most of us assumed that would be March. Yet in the most recent MM update, there was not even a single mention. It continues to be ignored, even though it sustains a fairly high population. Two maps, with about a 1% chance of 3, are the only maps in the playlist.

343i needs to do two things for the playlist:
1. Change max local players from 4 to 2
2. Without having to worry about splitscreen lag, community content can be worked into the playlists.

Invasion has become the forgotten child of Reach MM. It sits in a dark, cobwebby corner, secluded from everything else.

Your opinion is invalid.

They sit in the corner together, slowly dying.

That's cause Invasion is horrible, they should have made Arena, and other play list better before worrying about the garbage ones.

Firstly, that is completely based on opinion. Secondly, arena has gotten an update recently. Invasion hasn't changed since Bungie added Skirmish gametypes.

Arena got the TU. Invasion hasn't changed since skirmish was added.

Yes, but Arena is the only ranked playlist yet it still has jetpack, bad maps, bloom, etc. Not what a competitive playlist should have. People have been begging for these to be taken out for months yet they are still in Arena.

I'm not getting into some petty argument about what needs an update more. It's pointless, because it's completely opinionated. I was just disappointed with 343i, because invasion has been untouched by them.

All opinion, and you still cannot deny that it hasn't been updated.

Arena at least got the TU treatment. The only update invasion got since launch was the addition of breakpoint to the rotation and nothing else.
Spartan and Elite Skirmish would like a word with you.

But other than that, yeah, Invasion's been pretty much forgotten.

I want my elephant back.
Give it to me now!
(Please?)

Me.

lol

I would like to see Invasion updated. Needs to be.

With Arena, at least you have good maps.

With Arena, you can be equal in power.

With Arena, you can't get bored.

With Invasion, it is virtually impossible for custom maps to rise.

With Invasion, Spartans will most likely win.

With Invasion, playing two maps is boring.

INVASION NEEDS MOAR UPDATE

It is my opinion. And no duh, I'd noticed.

No, I frequently have 2 people on my splitscreen and would like to play whatever playlist I want, without the bull-blam!- restrictions that are already in place for BTB.

So you would prefer to only play two maps?

You don't need to add a 2 player restriction to add maps

Lies. Any decent invasion map that would be suitable for MM would have immense splitscreen lag with 4 players on one screen. The restrictions in BTB are a blessing because it allowed for custom content.

not true at all. I've played plenty of 16 person customs over the internet with no appreciable lag. It's not the number of players involved, it's the connection. This is connected to the number of players, yes, but 4 people on one console doesn't screw up anything in any other playlist, and that's not going to change just because you added 2 people.

lol

its ok though because they added flames to team hotshots. what a necessary and game altering update that was!

Well I guess most of you assumed wrong and got your hopes up. At least they said it would be updated eventually unlike Arena what hasn't. Maybe they're testing more maps and getting things ready for a big overhaul and couldn't get it out in just a months time so they didn't do anything this month. Sure you can be mad they didn't say anything about it at all but hey it is what it is.

The Internet is an empowerment tool that's agnostic; it doesn't care about race, gender, or age.

Yeah it sucks, but I never play Invasion anyways.

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

Maybe they're trying to disappoint as many people as possible. :P
