BR Slayer?

Games Other Halo

First and foremost, I’d like to acknowledge how happy (or sad), but mainly happy we should be with all the news we have got today, from RvB or the Sparkast. Most of this news is great. I’m looking you at sprint, ordnance, and forerunner vision. :slight_smile:

Here’s the podcast, if you haven’t heard it yet.

But I’m here to discus the presence of “BR Slayer”. As we’ve seen in the Halo 4 First Look Trailer, or the RvB shorts that came out today (pay attention when it shows the view from the sniper scope), the gametype BR Slayer has made a return.

Yeah. I know how that sounds, with all the news we’ve been getting about custom loadouts recently. They have explained that the game will allow for you to customize your personal loadouts, by earning what I will call “Sp” (spartan points) through ranking up in multiplayer, or progressing through Spartan Ops.

Now, with visual proof of there being BR Slayer, what does this lead you guys to think? You can’t have BR Slayer when everyone shows up with DMRs or ARs. So this either means there will definitely be playlists dedicated to traditional Halo gameplay, or more apparently, just custom games editing.

Lets discuss.

P.S. I’m looking forward to trying these changes out myself, and Halo 4 in general! :smiley:

I was thinking the same thing. I really do hope there is at least a somewhat classic playlist.

Simple, loadouts can be different for different gametypes. In team snipers, you can’t choose a Needle Rifle loadout. A BR Slayer gametype will probably just require BR starts like in other halo games. We can possibly even be able to choose our secondaries and grenade types so long as the BR is the default start.

There’s still so much information to release for this game. I’m getting anxious.

I would say that while playing BR you would only be able to choose the game-type loadouts, and not your own.

Yes, this is a huge possibility. I didn’t think about that.
