Halo 3:Big Team Battle
Leaderz0rz | 12:54 AM on 10.11.2007 7 comments


The latest update to Halo 3 which increases the amount of players in Big Team Battle is great. Except the problem that plagues Big Team Battle is that everyone only wants to play Team Slayer. They will veto any map that isn't team slayer then leave the game if the next map isn't team slayer. They constantly bitch about VIP and BOMB or they just run around completely avoiding the objectives all together. With a over a million people playing Halo 3 you would think I could find a game with actual players who follow the objectives right? Wrong. Now I am not the greatest Halo player in the world, in fact I'm pretty bad at it, but one would think that even if it's not the type of game mode you wanted you would still try to win. Now I always heard the Halo community had horrible players but seeing as how Halo 3 is the first Halo I ever played with remote interest in multiplayer this is just absurd. I think there should be a Big Team Battle Objective, and a Big Team Slayer or something. There might less people playing objectives but some of us like to have a point to the game other than killing the mean red or blue color for 20 mins.

I kinda wish team games would use different colors than red and blue. Maybe yellow versus purple. Or orange versus green. That'd be nifty. But yeah, it seems nobody knows how to actually play objective-based games in Halo 3 besides Capture the Flag.

Would be cool also to have spartans vs elites.

Big Team Battle Objective would be awesome :-)

I had a few matches on Sandtrap with flags. It was amazing. Slayer's just fun because it's so huge and epic-like, man.

Oh, I've also played some bomb games. What other objective games did you have in mind to play? The only one left that might work (I doubt) is territories.

I really hate that, because all of my fondest memories of Halo 1 were Capture the Flag matches. I personally love objective games and I wish they showed up more often. Slayer is fine for a little bit, but it gets stale really quickly.

Territories is so fun with 8 players per team. Unfortunatly I haven't been on the winning team that often in Territories. Bomb and CTF are also great. Basically every game type is amazing with full teams (IMO).

I agree that its a blast to play when your team is actually playing, but what I said before still holds true. I think it would be a good idea to split slayer from objective so you have a choice, that way people who want to play big team slayer can and not ruin the objective games for the rest of us.
