Talk:Infinity (mode)

Rename
According to this, specificaly the sentence "The competitive multiplayer modes of Halo 4 are known as War Games", Multi-Player in Halo 4 is called War Games. - DefeatingLine 20:13, 20 May 2012 (EDT)
 * Yes, competitive multiplayer is known as War Games. Meanwhile, Infinity includes both War Games and the cooperative Spartan Ops. --Jugus (Talk  | Contribs ) 00:39, 21 May 2012 (EDT)

I talked to David Ellis (the guy behind Spartan Ops) last night during Waypoint's playdate and I asked him about this. Infinity is just the general multiplayer name. Infinity contains War Games and Spartan Ops. So it looks like this: --ADinoSupremacist 23:38, 25 May 2012 (EDT)
 * Campaign
 * Infinity
 * Spartan Ops
 * War Games
 * Big Team Battle
 * Rumble Pit
 * etc.
 * Forge
 * Theater

Expanding the article
In most instances on the wiki, sections on the game page give an overview on the topic and provide a link to the topic page which gives more fleshed out and thorough information. In this case it's the reverse. Rather than a simple copy-paste, I think we should move some of the Infinity info from the Halo 4 page, to here. This page should also feature the maps template. This is just my opinion, but in its current state, this article may as well be a redirect to the section on the Halo 4 page.--Soul reaper 06:45, 1 September 2012 (EDT)

Regarding the use of Template:Halo 4 War Games Main
Honestly, I don't think the template is necessary since it has a limited, trivial and non-crucial use. Wouldn't it be better to present the maps in the traditional, yet simplistic bullet-style format like the rest of the articles? Two other reasons is the potential issue of scalability and compatibility (when the wiki receives a mobile skin, the table will be mangled), and my personal rule to "avoid template creep".— subtank   09:34, 3 July 2013 (EDT)

Merge with multiplayer
Simply put, "Infinity" is just a flavour text/description used by 343i as another word for multiplayer. A synonym for "multiplayer" if you will. Nothing noteworthy at that end. As such, I don't think it is notable enough to have its own article. The multiplayer article already does a better job of providing an overview of Halo 4 's multiplayer. Also, most, if not all of the content in this article has been sufficiently covered in Halo 4 's multiplayer section. I would prefer this article to be deleted, but I think a merge is more appropriate. — subtank   13:09, 26 December 2013 (EST)

You provide a very cogent argument.--  Rusty - 112  Admin  comm 19:28, 26 December 2013 (EST)

- Makes sense to me.-- 23:09, 26 December 2013 (EST)

- Agreed. This article is utterly superfluous. -- Our vengeance is at hand.  ( Talk to me. ) 23:21, 26 December 2013 (EST)

– Agreed, so long as it is meaty enough to include all useful information. Erickyboo (talk) 00:19, 27 December 2013 (EST)
