Why the hell does no one play this anymore?
In the Beta once everyone found out how awesome it was (btw, it's super awesome, you should try it) we played it just as much as regular Invasion! Now that the games been out for a couple of weeks it's already gone into the habit of everyone voting towards the same thing, and it's normal Invasion.
Now, don't get me wrong, I love all aspects of Invasion, but I literally never get a game of Invasion Slayer on ANY map. Am I Just in the minority here, or does the Halo community just not like it? I don't get what I'm missing, besides playing an awesome gametype.
What're your guys' thoughts? Like Invasion Slayer? Hate it? Do you vote for it or don't vote at all?
Halo: Reach
Game » consists of 13 releases. Released Sep 14, 2010
A prequel to Halo: Combat Evolved, chronicling one of the most cataclysmic events of the Halo Universe through the eyes of a squad of Spartan super-soldiers known as Noble Team. It is also the last game in the series developed by Bungie.
Invasion Slayer
I'm indifferent. I like both of them, and occasionally I'll want to play one more than the other, but I'm not exactly bummed out if my choice doesn't win. I'm just pissed about Team Slayer consisting of so many different types. Swat, Team Snipers, and Slayer DMRs should be in a different category.
" @Fullmetal216: What've they got to do with Invasion? Surely if you like them both you'd rather be able to play them both and not have to settle for Invasion (usually on Boneyard, it seems) apparently in it's own playlist. "I wasn't talking about invasion at that point. I was saying I was more frustrated with the team slayer game type.
I personally don't like Invasion Slayer so much because almost every game I've been in, it's been very slow and not much action. Don't get me wrong, there have been some great matches but I do prefer normal Invasion. Just wish there was some more damn maps!!
Invasion is probably one of the best playlists at the moment. I would enjoy team slayer,but i'm getting sick and tired of SWAT and team snipers or DMR's. Big Team Battle is a little too hectic for its own good. It's more casual fun.
Invasion just needs more maps. I think invasion slayer is fun but i enjoy regular invasion even more,but like i said it needs more maps.
I personally am not a big fan of Invasion Slayer, I find it too similar to Big Team Battle. I usually jump into an Invasion playlist for some objective action, not just so I can randomly kill fools. I know it has weapon drops and loadout phasing, but that is just kind of 'meh' for me. Plus, I always spawn as an elite, and I'm more of a precision weapon kinda guy, so I generally feel kinda gimped. Although evade and health regen help. :) Also, I'm a fickle bitch.
I think it's really cool. However, I think plain old regular Invasion is the worst gametype that Halo has ever had. It's a totally uninteresting snoozefest.
