Subject: Bungie responded. Now 343i has to.

This is in relation to the numerous gametypes 343i have excluded from Halo 4. TL;DR at the bottom.

During Halo 2's multiplayer, players created an infection gametype on the Halo 2 multiplayer map 'Foundation', where green team were survivors and red team were infected. If a red killed a green, the green player had to manually change from green team to red team. A major problem with this was dishonesty. Bungie responded by giving us a proper infection gametype in Halo 3.

The inclusion of forge in Halo 3 also promoted many race tracks to be made. Like 'infection' in Halo 2, it also carried with it many issues. Yet once again, Bungie responded by giving us a proper race gametype in Halo Reach, which has grown to be my favourite halo gametype. Which is probably why I'm writing this thread.

Now Halo 4, there have already been amazing race tracks created in Halo 4's forge and it's shame there is no proper race gametype to support it, especially when 343i could have easily added it. Thankfully, they still can through a title update, which is what I'm hoping for.

TL;DR - Do you want 343i to add a race gametype to Halo 4?

Do I want good things added to Halo 4? Yes.


Will 343 do anything like that? No.

I want VIP, Assault, proper infection, etc. back. Custom games in Halo 4 sucks.

We all wear masks and the time comes when we cannot remove them without removing our own skin.

The game needs fixed before a horrid playlist like that is added.

One does not simply trolololol into Mordor.

They should really just add all the things that they took out of custom games for no reason.

  • 01.06.2013 6:06 PM PDT

Just so you know, Race was already a gametype in Halo 1.

But otherwise, I wouldn't care either way. It'd be nice to have it I suppose.

The game is boring as hell, and some crappy race tracks aren't going to change that.

Call me a pessimist, but I agree. 343 has no idea what people mean by "adding back the old gametypes" and don't seem to have any plans to.

They missed so much more than the race gametype.

yeah this reminds me of the time i got sent to jail for stealing crocs from target becozs i wanted all of the colors because i only got the green wons for my birthday and i wanted more ;)

I absolutely hate the race gametypes in Halo, especially Rocket (Hog) Race. It was the worst thing about Reach's multiteam.

I had a very similar thing, only I threw a 14 story building out of a pool and hit a kid on a paper aeroplane.


The Flood is just this awesome :D

Infection needs to have a Flood On/Off setting. Now that the infected can't use weapons it killed off numerous cool gametypes like Duck Hunt and Halo on Halo.

Fun fact: I found a way to make Duck hunt and Halo on Halo in Halo 4.

Other fun fact: The saving over and deleting existing maps glitch is still a thing.

Seriously it's 343's first game. While there are alot of mistakes they still haven't released a title update fixing them.

Race was also a default gametype in Halo CE...

Do you like Green Eggs and Ham???

I actually got banned for complaining about Infection on 343's sight.

Sigh. Well, I can at least confirm they don't give a damn.

As I'm assuming they didn't hire people out of Highschool, that's not much of an excuse.

Two makes there more than speakers.

It doesn't fit their "Infinity experience" so I doubt they'll even bother looking at it.

  • 01.06.2013 6:21 PM PDT

343 was supposedly made up of Halo fans. Clearly that isn't the case, since they ruined custom games, which was one of the things that made the Halo series so great.

  • 01.06.2013 6:22 PM PDT

I'd like a grifball playlist.

Why Bungie, why would you do this?! - Halo Community

-So what? They had 4 games to look back on. Thats a piss poor argument.
-Yeah, thats the problem?

  • 01.06.2013 6:36 PM PDT

Your Race example doesn't work, as that was a gametype in CE, although the mechanics were a little different. And the Reach design may have been based off the race gametypes in h3.

Brain says 'No, that's ugly', body says 'ugly is fine with me'.

LOL You mean red team was Survivors and Green team was Infected?
