• Pro mode removed from Arena playlists
• SWAT turned into a separate playlist
• Rocket Race added (yesssssss)
• Classic Slayer removed (noooooooo)

Nice to hear about the change with Swat.

I don't think anyone will be sad to see Pro and SWAT gone from the current form.

Personally i hate slayer, but isn't that what most people play, wtf.

I want Lone Wolves >:(  I am  tired of going to Rumble Pit and everyone picking infection.

Good changes, glad to hear they are removing a lot of the slayer variants since their is very little difference between them and I look forward to seeing the new maps they add.

Oh dear, I just bumped a topic with that info, go me >.>.
 
But yay for SWAT going byebye!
 
Yo dawg we heard you like slayer so we put SWAT in your slayer so you can SWAT while you want to slayer...yarly >.>

SWAT getting it's own playlist is cool, but removing Slayer? That seems a bit strange.

They need to fix Firefight matchmaking.

Ha, I haven't even played SWAT yet (and I've played, uh, like, 30-ish games).  What's so bad about it?  I have no idea what it is. 
 
 
EDIT: Too bad about losing classic Slayer.  The more Slayer types, the better, in my opinion.  Also, the less often there is a stupid radar, the better.

why remove classic slayer ? and for the rest , i have to see ....

Is classic slayer the one with none of the Reach stuff in it? If it is, it should probably just get a different playlist rather than be removed.

I am disappoint.
 
No Jun DLC campaign announced.

Thank god SWAT is gone.  Now if they can get Snipers out of slayer too.....

They messed up. Arena should have nothing but PRO variant, cuz thats all people vote for. They need to make it such that it has no radar.

I'm glad Bungie decided on a SWAT-only playlist.
 
And the Tank on Hemorrhage to be replaced with Wraith, fuck yes!

Swat in its own playlist = Yup 
Rocket Race = FUCK YUP 
Pro Mode from Arena = who gives a shit I don't play arena >:(( 
Classic slayer removed = entirely or just from specific playlists? Not that it matters, the perks are a high point of the game so I don't want to play with them turned off.

WHAT THE FUCK?!?!?   Classic Slayer IS GREAT!!!! its a nice break form jet packs everywhere.  
also nobody EVER played   Pro Mode in arena.   
 Swat     by it self is the best thing they could ever do!!  
now what about snipers....

Pro needs to be gone from NORMAL matchmaking.

Seems good to me, 
I really do want a ranked objective playlist though

King of the hill = Great
Juggernaut = AWESOME 
Replacing drop shield with evade in objective games = brilliant
Replacing the scorpion = AWESOME
Swat has its own playlist = Expected, as such, awesome
 
Its a shame they havnt fixed infection on zealot. Its a real shame that the spartans can camp the top ledge stopping the infected from getting up since they have to use the slow pipe things and remain vulnerable for like, 3 seconds (and not be able to attack cause they are out of range).

Wait, where the hell does it show DLC?

" Wait, where the hell does it show DLC? "

SWAT is by itself! Yes! I love Swat! 
However, something is wrong with my T.V. or Xbox, so I can't play :(

I'm pumped!

I enjoyed Pro Slayer in arena so much more than Slayer DMRs.  That bums me out.

I personally would rather see all single-shot gameplay types (Slayer DMR, SWAT, Slayer Pro) put into its own playlist, but SWAT as a separate playlist seems okay.  It'll skew the fuck out of stats, though. 
 
Removing Classic Slayer is fucked personally.  Some of us want to just run around and kill without worrying about jetpacks and shit.  Oh well. 
 
Other than that, I haven't played any Arenas yet, and I haven't played any Races yet.  Sooooo...eh. 

I love how they decide to explain again how the no-bleed mechanic works, as though it were some mystery that players couldn't wrap their minds around. The problem isn't that people lack the skill to deal with the no-bleed, but rather that it's a completely asinine game mechanic. I really hope they remove it with a patch some time down the road.

• Pro mode removed from Arena playlists ( sure why not? I never liked pro and this seems alright)
• SWAT turned into a separate playlist ( THANKFUL I am disappointed no word of Snipers getting moved.)
• Rocket Race added (honestly never played much of this game type, but adding is always more options so sure.
• Classic Slayer removed (I agree this will be missed I'm surprised its going away, I dont mind a classic slayer but since swat is removed from slayer options this doesn't sound that bad.

>.> <.< why does everyone hate SWAT so much? ...I like Swat...

This was literally the perfect update until I saw that classic slayer is being removed.  They're pretty much removing the Halo mode from Halo... fucking why?

" This was literally the perfect update until I saw that classic slayer is being removed.  They're pretty much removing the Halo mode from Halo... fucking why? "

It just makes absolutely no sense, it's the one mode that sums up Halo and they're removing it?  I don't understand...

" From Bungie.com. Coming in October, it fixes stuff, adds stuff, and removes stuff. Check it! Also, DLC confirmed in one of the screenshots 
  
Some highlights (just a FEW of the updates, this is not all of it): 
 

• Pro mode removed from Arena playlists
• SWAT turned into a separate playlist
• Rocket Race added (yesssssss)
• Classic Slayer removed (noooooooo)

 So, what do you think? Good update? Horrible update? Surely you don't think the latter. "

They're removing Classic Slayer? That's a little disappointing...

Don't know if its enough, I think I grew out of halo a long time ago in terms of Online MP and I was just coasting with halo 3...

Darn, was hoping for harsher punishment for people that leave at the beginning or halfway though a game, Tired of 4/2 or 8/4 maps where kids get pissed that they didn't get their map choice.  
 
Glade Swat is on its own section, was hoping for a Griffball verity though, oh well, 

" >.> <.< why does everyone hate SWAT so much? ...I like Swat... "

I want Infection to ride solo. Man I'd spend a lot of time in that playlist.

So glad they're removing Classic Slayer. I really dislike it. Glad to see I can get some SWAT in though!

No Classic Slayer?  That just seems odd.

BOOO  no Classic slayer.  keep snipers and swat in a separate playlist.  Classic playlist? 

Yay to swat having its own playlist! Im not a fan of its i see you first so i win style so im glad to see that I wont have to play it unless I actually want to.

If they remove pro mode from arena then won't it be DRM slayer all the time?  That would be shitty...
