I like the fact that 343 added Legendary Slayer in Halo 4 for the purists. Can there be a different game mode in the playlist that allows armor ability pickups?
I wouldn’t be opposed to this idea, I’ve always liked the concept of having armour abiltiies being tools that you have to earn through map control, just like power weapons. Kind of like equipment in Halo 3, but with a bigger presence.
no just no. There are playlists enough where you can use your silly aa’s
i agree bad idea
I don’t see why a single AA would harm the game too much as a pickup. It should certainly only be 1 per map, to make it predictable.
Shutout: Replace Shotgun with Jetpack.
That map becomes so ridiculously campy, and a Jetpack would help with breaking enemy’s hold on the towers.
No! I hate AB I am so glad they are not in this playlist.
Why so much opposition? It would be just like equipment in Halo 3.
Put Regen Field and Thruster Packs on map, not really overpowered at all
Goodness, no. I’ve hated Armor Abilities since Reach.
Wouldn’t be so bad if they had a time or use limit like traditional powerups.
I would be ok with it, they could fill the void of equipment in a sense.

Better yet, just remove Shutout as a Lockout remake just doesn’t work in Halo 4. Replace it with Simplex or Onyx.
And no on the AA’s. It’s nice to have a playlist without any.

Every time I play Shutout in LS, I end being Spawn-camped by the Sniper.
Lockout does not belong in Halo 4! There’s nothing good about it anymore!

It’s the lack of descope that ruins it. You just end up with players sitting on the two towers scoped with rifles shooting across the map.
I think it might be a good idea to try out. It wouldn’t make a big difference if it was only AA’s like Thruster Pack, Hologram, and maybe Regen Field. It would probably be more balanced than some power weapon spawns.
I would say yes, if there wasn’t such an abundance of power/precision weapons.
Also if they do implement it please only TP and HS.
