Boring game is boring

game is getting boring all ready, they really need add :
-ranking system 1-50
-alot more playlist
-ranked and social playlist
-alot more maps, im playing the same three maps over and over again
-file sharing

and they need to get rid of:
instant spawn
killcam (players cant see me when i -Yoink!- them, teabagging was the best thing to do in halo)
fix dmr
remove ordinance
add good connection/skill range/ language option
be able to see whos in a party

the list goes on this game is starting to suck

Indeed it has become very boring already.

It is, I thought this game was ok after a while but it got boring very quickly. I can barley finish 3 games in a row now without going AFK and picking up my IPod out of sheer boredom.

Please explain to me in two paragraphs why a ranking system of 1-50 would make the game less ‘boring’ and have an impact on gameplay.

All your post is doing is copypasting what every other person is saying that somehow a ranking system will make the game less boring. Having a big bright number will somehow add more competitiveness to an ‘casual’ game as many put it.

Zzz, it is boring as -Yoink-

you really wanna read thru 2 paragraphs of an explanation…
im in pops popcorn

couldnt agree more ive loved halos online multiplayer since halo 2 and its not like im bad at the game im a sr46 with a k/d of 2.6 but it just feels broken and i find myself turning it off and watching tv alot when in halo 2&3 i’de be playing till the sun came up

More playlists for sure. Don’t know why they’re being held back, think that’s a mistake it allows people to move on sooner. Holding back is bad. When is Extraction going to be playable? Why does Spartan Ops feel not like the epic episodic mayhem they made it sound like it’d be?

I’m bored with MP too and I’m a big Halo fan. More maps, more playlists, improved Ops experience… these are the least I’d expect with release not later add-ons. The only thing keeping me playing Halo MP now is playing with friends. If they’re not on I’m looking for something else to do or some other game to play, not good.

Halo had one great thing going for it… when matchmaking becomes taxing and feeling like a chore. You can do all sorts of silly stuff in CUSTOM GAMES!

Any time I got bored on Halo, I didn’t pop in another game. No! I rounded up some friends and we played mini-games. Tons of great stuff. Halo Reach had a lot of customizable features to chose from. When I heard Halo 4 was comeing what I was looking forward to was 1) Master Cheif/ Cortana 2) Forge Options 3) competitive ranks

1/3 things I wanted means… I’ll watch the campain on YouTube but have no interest in leaving Halo 3 or Reach. I’ll wait for price drop, buy used or wait for fixes. Reach was considered one of the worst Halo games… yet it had the BEST CUSTOM GAMES ever. Convince me Halo 4 is worth the cash and not just prettier graphics.

We need some more playlists, I don’t think its boring just yet but it’ll get there without the addition of some more playlists. I’m talking Team Snipers, Team Doubles, Multi Team, etc. those ones!

because the best part of multiplayer games is learning and mastering them, and being recognized for that. People like beigng recognized for their achievements. Its like a trophy. And its a constant challenge to keep your rank up, since it can go down at any time. Challenge=fun

Mitt Romney is Mitt Romney. Halo can’t beat that.

Even if he’s copy pasting he does have some points.

Ranking system is coming, yes it is unfortunate that it wasn’t in from the get go but oh well. Also it can’t just be visible from waypoint, but Frankie said that wasn’t set in stone.

Playlists are being added every week, i’m pretty sure they said that in their last weekly update.

Maybe when they add ranking they should split some playlists up, all they need in a social playlist is a mix of objectives and a social slayer gametype.

More maps would be a blessing actually, i’ve even seen this map called Relay in the custom game options which seems like a good CTF or slayer map, it’s beyond me why they didn’t add it in the matchmaking playlists. (Or maybe i just havn’t seen it yet). There is a map pack coming in December that hopefully has some nice close quarters maps.

Instant spawns are fine in slayer, don’'t really mind them at all, but i do not like them being in objective gametypes. Thats just what i prefer.

Killcams would be fine if they weren’t bugged and they didn’t show the other person missing like crazy. Also they don’t really work all the time but this is the biggest w/e in Halo 4.

DMR is very very versitile and it does need a nerf. What i’d like to see if it does not get a fix in for example an MLG playlist is forced spawns with BR’s and have the DMR as a pickup on maps. I know this doesn’t fix the rest of the gametypes but it would be a start.

Ordinance is fine in Infinity Slayer as long as they put in a Classic slayer like they said they would. I think it’s actually quite fun.

game has a rank system
playlists are being added
would of been a good idea
maps will be released with DLC in February i believe, play big team playlists to play different maps
it already has file sharing

I have a theory! The people such as OP complaining generally seem to be new to the forums… its a conspiracy from CoD fans to divide the community! OUST THEM!

Impatient and unthankful OP is impatient and unthankful <3

Hali 2s ranking system did two things.

  1. It forces people to use teamwork. Beleive it or not people do care about the number next ro their name. Theres no shame in that. Its competitive nature. Anyone mildly competitive would care about 1 up’ing their competition, regardless if its just a video game.

  2. Due to increased teamwork, people used their freaking mics. Ive been in ONE game of halo 4 so far that had anyone talking. In halo 2, EVERYONE talked.

So, a more competitive nature+people talking and making friends/trash talking makes things a whole lot less boring.

A ranking system would go a long ways to making this game more replayable. Unfortunately 343 would still have to bite their pride and realize the game they made is very uncompetitive at its core. By that im referring to poor map design, no static weapon placements to fight over, no powerups to control, spri t and instant spawn turning every game into a melee fest; and so on.
