OminousJackal Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 Yeah, it'd be great to know this. I primarily played Swat in Reach and I was really excited to play it when Halo 4 came out. It was really disappointing to see it absent from the launch playlist. Not having Snipers on top of that made me much less happy about my decision to head to the store at midnight to pick up the game. Don't get me wrong, I'm having fun with infinity slayer and flood, but swat is what kept me coming back to Reach and I'd like to know if/when it will be added to H4.

DoctorB77 Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 It will be added soon enough. The game wad just released so they are getting everything ready. They will most likely release it by the end of this month or in early December. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smutler Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 got to play slayer for a month what.................... I hear you, man. It is what it is. I'll be patient and wait, but I'm finding that I can't play Slayer (or the other modes, at the moment) for more than 4-5 games before shutting my 360 down. It's the fact that SWAT isn't there (yet) and I'm waiting for my usual friends that I play with to get the game. I'm loving and enjoying the game, though, for what it's worth. Just excited to play my all-time favorite FPS multiplayer mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spacemobile Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 I realized that if we get swat, we don't have HP meters, so with no shields, it'll basically be a full body instant-kill swat, right? I mean, I wreck people with footshots now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smutler Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 Per the website "The Examiner", SWAT will be added next week (sorry about the text/font and its background. Copied and pasted from the article): Halo 4 for the Xbox 360 was only released just this week and 343 Industries announced Friday a playlist update coming next week. While Halo: Reach enjoyed monthly playlist updates, 343 Industries plans weekly updates for Halo 4. "We will maintain a static set of playlists and feature one or two “rotational” playlists on top of that," community manager Jessica Shea wrote on Halo Waypoint. "We will be monitoring trends and statistics closely so we can react accordingly to your preferences and likes. For instance, if one of our rotational playlists consistently holds a higher population than one of our static playlists, we will consider swapping them out based on player demand. The process will be fluid and based on numbers, and we’re extremely excited about the benefits of our new approach." So what is coming with the first playlist update? SWAT with some changes to both weapon damage and the HUD. Players will be equipped with Battle Rifles, DMRs and Magnums, have no shield or radar tracking, and will not be able to use ordnance drops in this game mode. Here is how 343 Industries tweaked the three weapons for SWAT. DMR – 3 bullets to the chest, 1 bullet to the head Magnum – 3 bullets to the chest, 1 bullet to the head BR – 7 bullets to the chest (this gun shoots three bullets in a burst, so the first bullet of the third burst will kill the player), 1 bullet to the head Here are the maps that will be available in the SWAT playlist.

I mean, I wreck people with footshots now. Never. It'll be one headshot kill or 3-4 body shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spacemobile Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 I was hoping for that. So far they haven't done that much of a glorious job with shot placement like there was in Halo: Reach. So I feared that maybe this would be messed. But Smutler's post gave me hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bpstiff Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 People. Use the search function. This has been addressed soooo many times. We should be getting a SWAT playlist this coming week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
