The Arena, Team Slayer and Double Team
Always subject to change, blah blah blah… let’s just assume this is always the case and get on to the good stuff? OK! The following community maps are being considered for integration into The Arena, Team Slayer and Double Team where appropriate. Due to the inclusion of community maps, the Team Slayer playlist will be restricted to a maximum of 2 local players. For you wild and crazy split-screen fans, please see the Squad Slayer section above for where you’ll get your 3way and 4way action on.
Also the Noble Map Pack Playlist has been removed and a new gametype was added to Firefight Arcade called "Arcadefight",Weapon Pick ups enabled.. There are more smaller details that haven't been revealed yet, I'll update this post when they become available.
