Not much of a mid season update. Sounds more like a week 1 update.

Ranked FFA would get me back into this. And new maps, the amount we have now is ludicrous.
 
Multiplayer still a blast, can't wait for these new maps to drop, will definitely add some needed juice. Hate to complain here but they really should surprise drop like two classic maps into the mix too. Just not enough here, which sucks because the game plays the best it ever has
Same with the campaign. It was pure crack.

I enjoy it but too much else to play. Haven’t even finished campaign yet. Once Elden and Horizon simmer down I’ll get back to it.

Blood Gulch, Hang em High

Anyone else remember the craziness of Halo 2 1v1 and 2v2? That would also be nice.
