[u][b]THE NEW THREAD[/b][/u] Thank the Maker, my will has been done! We are finally getting a Competitive Team Doubles ^^ [i]Source:[/i] [url]http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=30705[/url] [quote][b]Favourite quote of the day:[/b] [i]A new competitive Double Team playlist will be created to replace the Doubles Arena.[/i][/quote] I can only hope that we will be given normal Slayer as a gametype in this new upcoming playlist [i](It being in the Competitive section of matchmaking my bets are on "Yes")[/i]. Also, I hope that all the weapons that are supposed to be on their respective maps are there, as a proper Slayer game deserves. [quote][/quote] [u][b]THE OLD THREAD[/b][/u] I would really like to play Slayer in Team Doubles. I am tired of Arena Slayer. One issue is the DMR starts, as every sane person knows, they're overpowered. Whether or not it's bloom issues or the fact that it restrains player movement on respective maps, it is overpowered as a starting weapon. It's fine as a normal weapon however. The other issue is the weapons on the maps themselves, Arena Slayer is often very stale and boring due to the very limited weaponry it offer the players. [b]Weapons in Arena Slayer:[/b] - Designated Marksman Rifle - Needle Rifle - Magnum - Plasma Pistol - Shotgun - Sniper Rifle - Rocket Launcher - Grenade Launcher - Machine Gun - Fragment Grenade - Plasma Grenade [b]Weapons left out of Arena Slayer:[/b] - Assault Rifle - Plasma Repeater - Plasma Rifle - Concussion Rifle - Plasma Launcher - Fuel Rod Gun - Focus Rifle - Energy Sword - Gravity Hammer - Plasma Cannon As you can see, there is a lot of weapons left out of Arena Slayer, and many of them is the very weapons that colours Halo gameplay to stand out from the rest of FPS games. I don't feel like I'm asking too much here, all I want is to be able to play Team Doubles in normal Slayer, the way Halo was intended to be played on maps containing the very weapons they were intended to contain. Please, give Team Doubles a normal Slayer playlist or add Slayer as an option to the Arena [i](I know the latter doesn't make much sense but I'll take anything I can get)[/i].
