Combat Workshop: Squad Battle Networking
With the launch of the December Mid-Season Update,
we included the latest updates to our networking model in the Firefight: King of the
Hill mode.
We wanted to roll it out in this PvE experience first to have a safe testbed to see how it behaves at scale before enabling it in a PvP mode. However, after listening to player feedback and getting many requests to try this in multiplayer, we decided to expand the experiment to the Squad Battle playlist.
That’s right, the Squad Battle experience you know and love has been updated to run on our updated networking model for a limited time in the Combat Workshop. The Combat Workshop is your one-shop stop to check out work-in-progress maps, modes, and other new experiences. In this playlist you'll be able to enjoy a mix of Slayer and objective modes on fan-favorite maps while we gather feedback and data about the online experience.
If you’ve already jumped in to play in the Workshop: Squad Battle Networking playlist, we want your feedback!
And, if you experience any technical issues, please be sure to report them to us by using the Halo Support site at aka.ms/HaloSupport.
Thank you for the continued feedback, and we’ll see you online in Squad Battle!
