Breakout

Warzone Assault

Grifball What are the plans for these playlists given they are consistently at the bottom of the list?

























I can't imagine FFA (aka Lone Wolves) going anywhere and being at the bottom of the list probably doesn't hurt it as much as other playlists might suffer from lower population given the lack of team balancing by the matchmaker.Also, I don't think Warzone Assault will be removed given the resource investment that was put towards making maps that are only available within that mode; however, maybe they attempt to refresh it slightly (not sure how) or incorporate those maps within Firefight and then remove Warzone Assault (added bonus is that it presents a type of refresh for Firefight), but either of those two possibilities may be unlikely because of the resource investment needed to achieve them.While Grifball has its dedicated followers its just not a very popular mode apparently, so I wonder if what might be best for it is to turn it into a weekend only featured playlist or rotate it within the week to two week long featured playlists?I still believe Breakout deserves to remain available more often than a rare featured option and I think it'd play well within the social environment, so I'm hoping to see the past Breakout settings combined with the current Breakout settings in a social mixed-bag Breakout playlist that also rotates in-and-out every two weeks with an Extermination playlist. That way one of these playlists (Breakout or Extermination) would always be available.Ranked snipers likely gets removed for consolidation purposes, but I'd love to see a social Shotty Snips appear within a set rotation of primary playlists that appear as featured playlists on a fairly regular basis: Modern Throwback, Classic Throwback, Shotty Snips, Castle Wars, and Community Skirmish. I think the wackier modes like Rock n Rail, Mythic Shotty Snips, Rocket Party, FFA Super Fiesta, FFA SWAT, Rumble Rockets, Multi-Team, and Covenant Slayer that occasionally make appearances as featured playlists would be best off being blended into the Action Sack playlist to help keep it somewhat fresh and a lot more diverse.
