H5’s action sack had a better variety of games imo, I was hoping for more with the complexity and power of Infinite’s forge, but I’m guessing HS is afraid of complex modes in matchmaking.

They were simple modes, but I really enjoyed the scorpion and mantis versions of Breakout in 5’s AS

Yeah considering how long Forge has been out for too, this is a pretty poor selection. H5 action sack and super fiesta were my 2 favourite arena playlists and Infinite has just had significant downgrades on both of those.

343 (Halo Studios, their rep was so bad they needed to rename lol) could not have possibly fumbled more with Halo if they tried.

At least, thats what I used to think. Now I see how wrong I was. How is it possible to be this bad at managing the Halo IP? It took this long for Infinite to get basic features from past Halo games, and it is still missing some. Its still using the BLAM engine, or rather a derivative of the BLAM engine. The code is loterally still there, there was no reason to remove features other than to be greedy. Thats it.
