Single Player.

i love the work 2015 put into the AI, the overwhelming force, the effects, the sounds, i jsut love SP. i only make SP maps so i can't say i'm good at making MP maps or anythig but imho SP maps are much harder and it takes a better scripter to make them mappers too.

voted TOW just cuase they are the most in depth gametpye in general. Objectives are always better then deathmatches(when playing against GOOD competition)

single player(no offense to the previous poster!) is a joke =p

just my opinion, but its like playing against massive amounts of low level players. Then again, only fps i've ever liked is halo on xbox, and even then ONLY when playing cooperative.

sp vs the computer is just so boring =(

also, with the STOCK moh maps that I have seen, it was pretty much a path game. You follow the predetrmined course to achieve the predetermined objectives(like most games are) Would be nice if they put more effort into making maps that encouraged inventiveness and quick thinking and/or strategy.

then again i hate sp so i dont play it much, so im no judge =p

well Splae, a lot of ppl think your way. i jsut hope games continue to make SP and don't give in to just MP.

i hope they make better sp =)

tell you what... the ai in halo is responsible for its success, its excellent... im not real familiar with the moh ai, but improving ai, and making levels less formulaic would be very nice.

I voted TDM.. I like OBJ too but it sucks when you're shot and watching for the others to finish the match... especially when one team (or both) is camping and nothing happens :(

SP rocks too 8-)

TDM for public servers , OBJ for clan matches.

Because public OBJ servers usually end up as JV says.

As for clanmatches , objective all the way. I really don't mind sitting back and watching my team mates take over. Sometimes i'm sitting at the edge of my seat talking to the screen! Much more intense than TDM.

Sure in TDM you get more action, but the kills are so many and the game so repetitive that you can only describe it by numbers and high scores.

But in OBJ one single kill, one skillful shot, one single player can make the difference and win the match/round. It's not just about having the skills, it's about being able to put them to use when it's down to you and a handful of enemies. No second chances, one shot at glory :wink:


PS:
you could basically say that TDM is like basketball and OBJ like soccer.
Sure, in basketball you have people runnning up and down all the time, big scores and lots of highlights, while in soccer you usually get just 2 or 3 goals per match. But we all know who the king of sports is :lol:

Respawn objective of any sort is the best gametype.

objective isnt that bad when rounds are kept short... even watching teamates isnt TOO horrible if they arent jsut camping. Short rounds keeps things moving unless you have real new players on.

tdms are jsut practice =p there is no intensity there, no real win or loss, just personal stat padding... even freeze tag is better cause its round based =) tdms are fun tho, because they are by far the most populous gametype, and 16 players beats 5 in almost any game =(
