The first is Infinity Doubles, which lets players choose a custom loadout and allows for instant respawn and use of radar. Ordnances will become active at the traditional 70-point mark, but options are adjusted specifically for Team Doubles, 343 said. Games are played to 300 points.

 

Doubles Pro features preset game loadouts (available at the 343 website) and the score limit is the same as above. However, radar, personal ordnance, and instant respawn are toggled off.

 

Third, CTF Doubles is a customized version of the Capture the Flag game mode for teams of two. Custom loadouts and radar are enabled and respawn timers are set to 10 seconds. Flag locations have been tweaked, 343 said, to "provide an optimal experience for small maps and teams." Rules of the game are: five flags to win, three-second return, and 15-second rest. In addition, gamers do not need to have their flag home to score.

 

A finalized map pool is still being worked on, though 343 said modified versions of Haven, Abandon, and Solace will be included, as well as some Forge-made maps.

 

In addition to announcing and detailing Halo 4's new Team Doubles playlist, 343 also revealed two new specializations will be added to the mix next week. They are Rogue and Tracker. More details are available on the 343 website.

 

Also on tap for Halo 4 in February is the game's next multiplayer map pack. The Majestic expansion adds new environments Landfall, Monolith, and Skyline to the mix.

I just have to say while I love the constant new game types it gets really annoying when things like team snipers,slayer pro get rotated out because your testing other stuff , I have no problem testing new thing but just leave the classic stuff in Please guys!!!

Hopefully they will continue this spree of adding new gametypes.

Meh, I am not really excited for this. I prefer larger matches (still miss my 64 man servers for BF2142) but hey at least people will now get a play list that has been desired.

Pretty excited,I like how they are adding bits of game types to Halo 4 really balances it out and lets us enjoy the game types given till the next are released.

I enjoy normal team doubles, but me and all of my friends agree that doubles pro sucks.
