DELTA ARENA
Delta Arena is a playlist intended to embody the spirit of the gameplay you experienced in 2004. Think of it as a modern take on the legacy settings you remember from days of yore.

Two sticks and a rock near a serene brook.
The Delta Arena modes will feature:

No sprint
No clamber
Increased jump height
Friendly player collision
You’ll be playing a mix of Slayer, Oddball, Capture the Flag, and King of the Hill on some maps that will look very familiar:
Midship (delta playlist and ranked)

Update: this playlist accurately emulated smg starts in 2004. Good or bad.

Sounds fun, probably boot this back up again for the first time in a bit.

H2 playlist = cool AF.

Miship and Lockout = no thanks, enough HCS/MLG crap over the years.

No burial mounds, no headlong/waterworks, no coagulation, no zanzibar, no relic, no terminal = exactly why Halo isn't popular to the masses anymore IMO.

Combine that with continued poor HCS/MLG choices of gametypes with oddball & KOTH while leaving out assault. This 20th anniversary has missed the pinnacles of H2 e.g. BTB/BTB ranked clan and flag/bomb games on fun maps, vehicles and weapon sets not HCS/MLG.

Can I kill team mates? Cos "collision" does not sound like I can, and when they removed that in Halo 4 it really took something away from the game.

When?

Im glad you mentioned Waterworks, my favourite map, it dosnt get mentioned often. Realy good for CTF sneaking about around the rocky walls with the flag was tense shit, great times.

Is worth a re install

Halo’s perception is off, most people today couldn’t name 3 Halo Infinite maps, I’m not shocked they’re milking nostalgia and I think I’m out on the nostalgia, Halo has just been outplayed by COD, the cortona thing is exhausting, just being honest.

I blame that on not having the map names on the loading screens. I've probably played 1000 hours of infinite and I don't think I could name any maps.

Is such a solid game experience with some of the most bizarre non gameplay related design choices all around it.

 

[Sorne]

I'm gonna give it a go tomorrow. Haven't touched Inifnite in a long time.. MCC though, still playing lol.

Is this game good? I remember I stopped playing because of the desync I was constantly experiencing.

Desync should be largely fixed now as they completely replaced the networking model.

When?

It's out now.
