After a week, what are everyone's thoughts on the new Squad Battle playlist? (lemmy.world)

Back on Tuesday, 343 released the Squad Battle playlist - an 8v8 playlist reminiscent of BTB modes from past Halo games, with Forge remakes of Valhalla, Rat's Nest, and Zanzibar/Last Resort.

Personally this playlist is the most fun I've had playing Infinite since release. The three maps are very well-made and faithful to the originals, while still implementing features for Infinite's unique sandbox and characteristics that make the maps work.

All the reactions I've seen to the playlist have been largely positive and it seems to have the quickest queue times/highest population out of all the current playlists over the past week. I sincerely hope that 343 makes this a permanent playlist, while continuing to add new maps or modes to it.

I wanted to ask what everyone's opinion was on the playlist, maps, and modes for Squad Battle! What do you love about it? Is there anything you'd want changed? Should it stay as a permanent playlist?

Agreed! I'm hoping the playlist stays and more Forge maps get added. There's some great remakes out there like for High Ground, Waterworks, or even Exile from Halo 4 that would suit the playlist very well.
