This week in Spartan Ops, we are featuring an encore of Episode 6. In War Games, the Extraction playlist is now available. One of Halo’s newest game modes, Extraction requires you to work with your team to extract and defend sites around the map to earn points. The first team to successfully complete 5 extractions will be deemed the winner.  The map / game type selection is as follows:

Maps for 1 Extraction Site	Extraction Time
Skyline	30 seconds
Landfall	30 seconds
Monolith	30 seconds
Harvest	45 seconds
Haven	30 seconds
Abandon	30 seconds
Adrift	30 seconds
Solace	30 seconds
Complex	45 seconds

 

Maps for 2 Extraction Sites	Extraction Time
Haven	30 seconds
Adrift	30 seconds
Exile	45 seconds
Meltdown	45 seconds
Longbow	45 seconds
Monolith	30 seconds

As you can see, the Extraction time varies depending on the size of the map. We look forward to adding additional maps to the rotation, and encourage you to leave your feedback in this thread to give us your thoughts on settings and map selection.

The Capture the Flag playlist also received some updates this week, as Settler (the on-disc Ravine Forge variant) and Simplex (an arena-style symmetrical map from community Forger SaLoT) are now available in the playlist, specifically tweaked for 5 vs. 5 CTF. Once again, head over to the War Games Feedback section and let us know what you think about these maps!

As promised, the Majestic FFA DLC playlist has also been updated – Rumble Pro has been corrected to have the motion tracker enabled, and the join-in-progress window has been shortened to prevent players from joining games too late.  We have also updated this window for the Regicide and Team Throwdown playlists.  While Team Throwdown was originally slated to not include join-in-progress, we have noticed that games have been starting with lopsided teams due to players backing out of lobbies, and we have included a very brief window before and during the first few moments of a match in which Matchmaking will fill and balance teams.  We will continue to monitor this window to ensure the best Matchmaking experience possible
