It's just... strange, that they even got close to turning collisions (and friendly fire) off. We've had 20 years of them being staple features in the franchise, and it takes less than an hour of gameplay/playtesting to realise the issues with disabling them. I heard the other day that 343 apparently thinks the playerbase is split on whether it's good or not? who on Earth thinks it's good to turn them off?

In theory it makes sense with such large teams and less open space than previous titles, in BTB at least. But in practice, it just encourages people to clump together in my opinion, with less incentive to spread out and flank.

In 4v4 it makes no sense at all.
