It’s always awesome having more firefight maps. One of the only gripes i have with firefight is that it’s so casual that it ends up being a competition on who gets the most kills and points, as there’s always 1-2 people not being able to do anything and just sitting on the hill or trying to get kills. Other than that, firefight is super fun

@FootedGhost

Agreed and that's why I always prefer playing Legendary firefight. Just is more of a challenge, and you have to work together with your team to survive, but yeah overall awesome update! :)

If you ever played mass effect 3 multiplayer, that’s how bronze through gold difficulties were. If you didn’t try hard to get kills, you basically got none. Which wasn’t too big a deal since everyone shared an overall score, but killing and getting medals did help you level up your characters if you needed to. Otherwise, the credit difference earned between the MVP AND LVP were maybe 1,000 based on performance alone, which also didn’t matter if by the end of a gold match you got 86,000 credits or so.

@@catherinemayo1809 Tell me about it. I got bitched at on a HaloFollower video for defending 343 and even told them that all of 343's past mistakes were due to Bonnie and Frank O'Connor who are no longer there and someone told me: "Why do people like you not understand that as many original devs leave a company it becomes a shell of its former self? Criticising Bungie laying of staff recently to somehow a support your negative claims about the company way back when is nonsensical." That really hurt my bloody feelings cause I am an OG Halo Fan! I PLAYED ON THE OG XBOX AND HAD HALO 1 AND 2 BUT NO XBOX LIVE! Sorry for the rant but it shows you that some people that are "Halo Fans" aren't really Halo Fans. So I agree with you.

A surprise to be sure...but a welcome one!!! (LOL!) Seriously, though, a very nice addition to firefight. I can certainly see the elites being regarded as part of the Swords of Sangheilios, and I always wondered what happened to the Hunters that sided with the Elites in Halo 2 and onward. This could be seen as an attempt to push back against the Banished following the events of Infinite, and the collapse of Cortana's empire. ... All in all, a very nice surprise indeed.

Imagine the crazy big team games modes you can make with this.

imagine my surprise when mid battle a hunter pair shows up and starts protecting me

I hope a mode like this is the first thing up and running in the development of the next halo game. Test and tune AI, weapons, and vehicles on Multiplayer maps that are now full of explosions physics. Tune weapons for multiplayer and Campaign on the same maps at the same time.

A big w for 343!

My own little Halo pokemon.

I really hope that with the next refresh they add vehicles on some of the maps and add respawn timers to them to make some of the maps, vehicle combat focused. Ofc with unit changes to combat the players. I would love variety in the maps with someone being infantry focused and others being vehicle focused. It’d definitely make the maps and firefight as a whole feel fresh and could create some interesting gameplay scenarios.

@ghostlyswat12

5 ай бұрын

They had a fair reason why the don’t have them but it be nice to see a map more focused of vehicles

Firefight is by far the best thing that ever came to Infinite - it's the only mode that has the desync fix, it's the only one where forced crossplay doesn't completely obliterate the competitive aspect, and were those god-awfully unresponsive controls prevent you from keeping the reticle at people who strafe like crazy, and it's the only mode where SBM doesn't take any effect. It's just pure, relaxing fun, despite being tense as hell sometimes.

on fragmentation i found a weapon drop pod and it gave me a custom equipment to spawn 2 Red elites :) along with the marines its was a good game :P

Well that was unexpected but really cool regardless , absolutely have to check it out, BTW I would love to see another forge creations video primary focused on prefabs like structures and cool dynamic things like the flyable pelicans and phantoms for example.

All PvE is missing for me is assassinations. That made it a whole lot more fun for me personally

Huh ... I played a few rounds today to grind the first 10 challenges to get the Vannak helmet ultimate eligible to do, and I didn't even notice the new equipment. Have to keep an eye out for that. I kind of feel like people are going to shoot elites or hunters by reflex at this point though. Is friendly fire off for them too? This is a cool addition, but it's a shame the studio didn't have the resources to also give the friendly nonhumans a different colour scheme - putting the Arbiter's Guard paint jobs on the elites and hunters would have been a great detail - to differentiate at a glance. Also, can you swap power weapons with the friendly AI like in campaign? Is the meta even favourable for that? A couple of rocket marines with infinite ammo would probably mean you get more skull bonuses, but they're getting kills that dont go to players. I'm a bit disappointed the firefight refresh didn't include some scoring changes though. Mainly driver assists - the warthog is on the map to be an asset for the team, so it doesn't make sense for the driver to be taking a significant personal hit to use it.

Literally had no clue and I played all day yesterday. Crazy how a yt video gave me more of an update than the update

Hope after the TV show armor ends they add blue teams armor as challenge rewards

I’ll be honest, if there’s something the halo paramount series does right, it’s spartan armor design. Really cool to see Vannak’s helmet, though I’m sure it’s behind an expensive pay wall

Anyone else notice a difficulty spike in all the firefight waves? I’m not complaining, because the challenge is welcome.

They should just make it an official equipment, I'd really want to see it in BTB. I'll see this as one step closer to, hopefully, a PVPVE mode variant/setting!

I wish they'd make a playlist with only the new firefight maps. I played 5 matches last night, and only got a new map once.

This isn’t enough 343

That is really cool I gotta admit. Though I’m hoping we still get legacy firefight soon, KoTH was fun at first but it’s not really doing it for me anymore.

Anyone else enjoying season 2 of the show? Like I'm digging the hell out of it 🤙 it's crazy how much better it is this season

If you're quick enough, you can grab the Zealots sword, too

They should increase the AI count. That would be awesome. (Yes, ik that they probably did it for the lower end consoles and PCs to keep it optimized).

AI and new maps are a great update!! I did experience a gamebreaking match where someone spawned in 20 hunters somehow and the enemy AI stopped spawning altogether

This is great .Tho my only issue with this that you dont get any assits points when you mate in a vehicle like none on the turret or in the side seat, really want that fixed

Legendary FF drives me insane

If I could actually get the new maps in matchmaking i could actually have fun with this

Is there any way to do PvP and use the new custom equipment? so you can throw out Marines or Elites to fight with you against that other player?

First game today my teammate spawned in elites and I immediately started shooting at them until I realized they’re on our side 💀

I imagine player made maps will come they just gotta be tested fully and dev tweaked etc They’ll come just probably later on

now that theres frendly ai i really hope they add new enemy models and start to pivot back to pve story. you can totally tell some story with pve like this plus forge and a couple cutscenes, i mean look at destiny (lol)

where can I find them? is there specific spots they spawn in, and is it every firefight match or is it like an RNG thing and theres a chance to spawn the item? ive not seen anything labled "custom equipment" but these maps are big enough i could easily miss it😊

Playing with friendly bots on two maps is incredibly fun Overall I'm loving the new new despite how large they are. I few lack ammo refills. My game crashed 1st time I saw the custome equipment.

Is the friendly AI equipment only on the newly added maps, or have they been retroactively added into the older maps too?

Fire fight with infection and a.i is so much fun

Are we never gonna get just a classic firefight ffs?!?

well the marines are a given but some of the hunters did join the elites and later sos so elites and hunters most likely are supposed to be sos

Breaker has a ghost, a brute hyjacked my ghost and started killing us with it... it made me realise just how much enemy vehicle Ai ups the threat and 343 seriously need to pull this anti-vehicle stick out their backsides and add this as a full feature fragmentation only having mongooses is a travesty. why isn't there a scorpion or wasps in firefight? why can't the enemy boss be a campaign wraith boss or Hyperius in his chopper.

So basically 343 gave us some good things but failed to give us a good menu system where we can create auto playlists based on what maps we want to play and/or match type. We're still stuck with 343's playlists that don't jump us into the match types we want.

Alright Hear me out.... Invisible players (1 player per team) + 1 Friendly AI per team (follows player coordinates) + Player movement speeds (based on friendly AI or Team) = Playable Elites & Hunters & more.

YO WHAT THATS SICK!!!!

I just want Classic Firefight back

Where is the equipment on Breaker to spawn the Hunters?
