Beginner

Hi all

I only played the first Halo on the old X-Box by a friend. So I decided… lets give Halo 4 a try. So… i hope no one is killing for that alone. :wink:

What are you giving my for an advice for the Game?

I played the single Story and Spartan Ops already and enjoying now the online multiplayer. Here comes my Questions:

a. What does the Armor really mean to the game? Does it protect you better with the newer stuff you unlock or is it just an optical thing?

b. I love the DMR, but it takes sometimes 4 or more shots to kill. What weapons are you preferring? Some people seems to just take 2 shots on me and im done. I already unlocked all the weapons. The Lightsword wasn’t a good experience so far.

c. What are your other favourites, in term of jetpack, hologram, firepower etc. Please with the weapons u use it.

Sorry for my english, i hope its understandable if not feel free to ask.
Thanks for your time and that your share your build with others. :slight_smile:

a. Armor is purely cosmetic and has no effect on gameplay.

b. The DMR always takes at least 5 shots to kill. The first 4 anywhere in the body, then the last one in the head. It is also the preferred weapon of most players because it takes a fraction of a second less to 5 shot kill someone than the other precision weapons do. However, I prefer the Carbine just because that is what I started using, and now I can shred people up with it.

c. Thruster pack is by far my favorite ability. If you thrust off of ledges you will fall faster and be able to fire immediately after the thruster animation is done when you hit the ground. You can also use it to change direction in lifts or even cancel going up lifts. It has so many uses from getting around to evading grenades to ninja assassinating people that it is an easy choice for me. I also like to use Ammo, because it gives you more rounds in everything you pick up including snipers and rockets, and either explosives or AA recharge.

A. depends on the player how he/she likes to look ingame
After that there are no changes for ingame

B. I prefer unsc weaponry but the assault rifle is my favorite.

C. Asaault rifle with Magnum and frag grenades. (CQC combo)
Hardlight shield to block fire when I encounter the hole enemy team at once.
ammo mod for more suplies and mobilitie cover more ground quicker
