  • The damage needs to be revised. It's pretty annoying to have your mantis one hit killed by an enemy you can't even see and then you fail the round because your stingy teammates won't use good reqs.

  • It's fun, it's just got some problems with the difficulty of a couple of the boss waves. For example, killing 7 ghosts on round two or killing 3 warden eternals in the back of a base where vehicles can't access. Also, if you're on a team where no one is willing to use their high level reqs then it's an automatic loss.

    • The more I play, the more fun it is to see those mythic bosses just crumble to the forces of 8 tanks. So be silent. IT IS FUN. LAUGH.

      • Is actually really fun. It's a pain with randoms, but with friends or a team that's communicating, it's fun and challenging. Way better than the Beta.

      • I already commented here but.. I don't think it's a letdown, in my opinion it's the greatest req pack and req point dropper in the game compared to time invested. I could play arena all day and get enough to buy 2 gold packs max(in my experience others may be different), while I could play firefight all day and receive >10 silver packs and enough credits to buy upwards to 4 gold reqs.

        • I love it. It's very challenging and you get tons of req packs and req points for winning

          Love it, and they'll probably improve it more with updates. Did you just let nostalgia get in the way?

          • I had fun for a few games but I realized it was trash after the fact that one crawler can cross map kill you in 2 seconds the enemies are broken, you can't even solo an elite sometimes because they just insta kill you with a storm rifle some waves are broken as well like double wardens at req level 3 and phaetons on urbab that have regenerating health... at req level 3

          • Not at all lol, and yes I have played it. It is an improvement from the beta as 343 actually listen to feedback 👍

          • Only issue with it is that you need to have a couple people in tanks in order to complete certain rounds. No tank = Loss. Beyond that, it's pretty solid for a PvE game mode.

            • Excellent concept. Poor execution.

            • There are a couple of things that let it down. Respawn timer and its increase seeing as by the last wave it takes 30 seconds to spawn again. Sure your meant to play smart which is fine but still missing what feels like quarter of the round due to 5min timer per round is a lil too much. I'd keep it at 10 maybe 15 seconds. It can be a lil 'balls to the wall' when you have two mythic wardens plus a normal warden plus 20 Knights,Armigers watcher and crawlers per warden but if you have a team who knows how to play it's not to bad. Does I need tweaking? Yes is it downright broken or bad? No.

            • I agree somewhat. The bosses being bullet sponges are horrible design, same with some missions on round 3. I don't understand how 343i shipped this. I don't understand why 343i feels like they need to reinvent the wheel each time, Bungie already made the series and set the groundwork, why do they go off and make some random thing that never is well recieved? Literally everyone would be happier if they just went and made ODST FF for Halo 5, without being forced to play online.

                Are you one of those people who only played Fiesta firefight in the reach days? Unless you're talking about the damage system itself instead of the overall difficulty, in which case I'm inclined to agree
