A). Remove the jetpack from multiplayer, and never include it in multiplayer again, keep it the same as reach but only allow it in custom games and maybe spartan ops.
B). Decrease accuracy while flying by 60%, Increase flight time, Decrease shield strength while flying by 75%
I believe option B would make the jetpack as a travel-only kind of thing, not something you’d want to use in a fight. I like the jetpack, but at he same time I hate it.
ugh gross can you never suggest any of this again. remove it completely? no. random accuracy decrease? no you have to control your jetpack and shoot which is hard enough til you get the hang of if.
i say give it banshee backflip and barrel roll capability
are you guys just bad players to complain about JP?
when I see someone jetpacking, I’m always like hooray free kill… learn to be good.

lol i didnt see the shield decrease thing. are you kidding? you know how easy it already is to shoot someone out of the sky seeing as they have no cover?
how bout we just make it suck bad enough that no one ever picks it is i think what you’re going for

The jetpack seriously diverted from what makes Halo, Halo. I liked it, but at he same time…

Why don’t we just demand all players that use the jetpack cannot have a gun. (Slappers Only)
I think jetpack could be balanced by adding bloom to jet-packers. Not severe bloom, maybe like 85% of Reach like in the TU. That would balance it out just fine for me 
Seriously this topic has been debated too many times let it go.
Getting rid of it over all would be helpful. That way people stay on the map instead of just flying around and skipping all the carefully designed ramps, stairways, and lifts. I enjoy killing a moron who flies as high as he can in the middle of the map as much as the next guy, but I don’t like people hovering above my head with a rocket launcher they flew to get. Jump shotters were obnoxious in Halo 3, then they got jetpcaks in Reach. I still have yet to see a jetpack used for anything but stupidity and map flow breaking.
Don’t fix something that isn’t broken.
Broken Record much.
What about just making it into a pickup?

What about just not making the game then, wait I’m sorry I’m adding fuel to the fire again seriously everyone stop making the same thread.
I agree with everything except the decreasing of shields. That’s not necessary.
This would ruin the Jetpack. I love it in multiplayer.
Everyone I would be deeply appreciative if you would refrain from speaking. this thread is pointless it’s been made like ten times now.

just saying you don’t have to bite my head off…
C) simply don’t make it last long enough or boost far enough to break map flow and eliminate the challenge and aspect of map control. The Reach jet pack is a game breaker not because those using it are difficult to kill, but because it breaks map flow.
I personally think 343 is going to lean in more of a thruster or booster pack, similar to what we saw in the reveal trailer, in halo 4 rather than the Reach version. Similar to how sprint got a change to balance it.
