Im sorry if this is an obvious question but i dont look on game informer and all that
crap.
Can you pick your weapons like it Gears of War? If so that would be my only problem with
Halo 4, i still dont like the idea of perks but i dont mind them as much.
Having it so you can pick your weapon is just a whole new level.
From what I can tell, the custom loadouts discussed in the GI article are more like Gears of War than COD, in that you have a limited selection of primary weapons (AR, BR, DMR, etc) and secondary weapons (pistols most likely). You would not be able to spawn with Sniper and Shotgun (unless you’re playing something like shotty snipers).
Unlike gears and like COD, you can choose a perk, or Armor ability. Ones we know of include Hologram, Jetpack, Forerunner Vision, and Active Camo. These can be bought with Spartan Points (and placeholder name) along with armor upgrades.
It is important to note that some of the returning AAs will likely not function like their Reach counterparts. Also important is that these changes will not be universally integrated like they were in Reach, but kept to certain gametypes and modes.
Thats one of the reason why i still play gears… you have multiple primary weapons to choose from and a few secondary to choose from… But i guess we will see how it works
