Echo Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 I was wondering if it was because of the change of pace the game has. Does the speed of the game really make everyone love Big Team Battle more, or has this always been a playlist favorite? I remember Team Slayer being the number 1 playlist to play lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWD26 Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 i enjoy the big open maps more, and don't forget the awesome vehicles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azaxx Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 Big Team has always been in the top 3 most played Playlists. For it to be the Number 1 now with the new features in Halo 4, this comes to no surprise or me. Big Team is just a hella load more fun.

BeckoningZebra1 Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 I only played regular slayer one time after I found the BTB playlist on REACH lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwb Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 Big team has always been the best. BUT of course 343 ruined it with invis and all the power ups. Vahallah remake is pretty much un playable now. Used to be my favorite map now I HATE playing on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaconShelf Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 Here we go again... Anyway, to me, BTB is 'true' halo. That is, a full lobby of sixteen players shooting each other while driving tanks around. What's not to like? I'm fairly sure BTB was most played in Reach. Don't know about 3. Anyway, many people find BTB much more fun (me included) or because you can have a bigger party with you(friends) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halogeek99 Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 In H3 both social team slayer and ranked team slayer was bigger all the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M_Targaryen Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 Why restrict yourself to only killing 4 opponents when you can kill 8? Is that just me that thinks like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaconShelf Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 More people to kill, more points to get. And because of vehicle commendations, too. I've never seen scorpions on 4v4. I agree with this post ^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victory Element Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Big team battle is a playlist that can appeal to many types of gamers. many casual gamers enjoy being able to use vehicles on maps and engage in large scale firefights. others prefer to have more enemies to shoot at so they can rack up big kills and achieve commendations. either way, it is a playlist that appeals both halo fans and other gamers. The 4v4 environment is not the place for many players to enjoy the game. I have nothing against team slayer, i'm just stating that it is sometimes too different from other shooter titles. 4v4 is extremely competitive and relies heavily on teamwork. Other shooters that people play usually have larger teams and more detailed maps to play on. Halo has small teams and keeps map layouts simple, and this makes it stand out from a lot of other games. Casual gamers want to play with something they are familiar with, so they tend to drift towards big team battle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FleshBack Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 I want to say it is because BTIS is more of a casual playlist. IS is rampant with competitive tryhards, even though I am one of them. As far as I know, there are more Casuals than compeitive players, so there you go, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xlxlCrobarlxlx Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 Dude idk if were playing the same game....but regular team slayer doesnt exist anymore. Its called Infinity Slayer and its a CoD mock-up version in Halo 4. I would believe that more people want to play something more familiar than a 4v4 with ordanance and randomness that kills it. Ok, theres the same thing in big team battle, BUT if you play any other BTB you can see the people accept more randomness in BTB than in Team Slayer. My personal belief is that. I believe that since theres this fake Team Slayer around that nobody really accepts it fully. In my heart i miss the original Team Slayer where the only BS came from a random grenade that had no business landing next to my foot right after i just killed a guy. Now there is BS every single second and i see the BS happening to my teamates. To me thats something serious where you accept your BS and its happening so much that you notice all the BS your teamates suffer. INFINITY SLAYER = Fake TEAM SLAYER = Original BTB = Fake but better than Infinity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fox McCloud Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 I love BTB just because of the fast paced gameplay. It's just really fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
