<\/a><\/p>\nHFFL:<\/strong> Before I paste the info, let me say that I for one am EXCITED that Objective is back! I think that 343 should have NEVER gotten rid of the playlist to begin with. It’s one playlist I lived in for much of my matchmaking career in both Halo 3 and Halo Reach. Okay, now for the info.<\/span><\/p>\n Team Objective is back and more objective-y than ever! Replacing Squad DLC, Team Objective will contain 4v4 ball holding, hill capturing and goal scoring action on a wide variety of maps. Staples such as Haven, Adrift and Ragnarok will be available including some Forge fan favorites. Voting for Team Objective has been simplified and is as follows:<\/p>\n First Slot:<\/strong> Second Slot:<\/strong> Third Slot:<\/strong> HFFL:<\/strong> Some really good choices there. I can see the third slot being largely ignored though. In my Halo 4 experience, I haven’t seen too many people pick Dominion or Extraction. I do see Oddball and Kong of the Hill being the top picks of this revamped playlist. Now you have a chance to get some of that armor you haven’t been able to get before, since Objective was taken away, oh so long ago.<\/span><\/p>\n Today also marks the end of Proving Ground as its own playlist. However, we\u2019ve integrated the Proving Ground gametypes right into Team Objective and Team Slayer.<\/p>\n HFFL:<\/strong> I for one am GLAD to see Proving Ground gone. It was taking up a much needed slot in Matchmaking, when typically only a hundred or so people were in that playlist. It was also too “try-hardy” for me. (Hence the name “Proving Ground”.<\/span><\/p>\n So this Friday night, I’ll be having a HFFL Community Night<\/span><\/strong> with nothing but Team Objective as the playlist\u00a0of choice! Please feel free to join in. 8pm-10pm Eastern. If I can get things hooked up right, I’ll even be streaming this!<\/p>\n -Sal<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This is a reblog from Halo Waypoint: HFFL: Before I paste the info, let me say that I for one am EXCITED that Objective is back!
