I was SO worried that they would make this game-type BR starts, but they’ve done it! You spawn with an AR! I am so excited, this will be the first game-type in Halo 4 (excluding Mini slayer) where you have to spawn with an AR, I am quite sick of how little attention the automatic rifles have had in this game but finally we can have a good old time using the AR with no problems with head-shots and such. I am also excited with the no ordnance and no pistol secondary, this will be great!
The only small complaint I have is maybe we should only spawn with 1 grenade so it’s not just a grenade spamming fest, but other than that I think it’s safe to say this will be my new favorite Slayer variant in Halo 4 matchmaking.
Not really, sprint isn’t the end of the world for me, I’m quite neutral towards sprint. I’m just glad we can actually play with ARs instead of all the BR battles going on at the moment.
Plus you still have to remember the maps are reasonably big, so it would get kind of annoying moving around the maps with no sprint.
Oh also SkeTcHH22 just check this weeks Bulletin, there’s lots of great info there this week.
I think we already have quite enough game-types with BR starts, If you want BRs it said there would be weapons on map for you to pick up so if you want just go around searching for those.
I am a tad skeptical on the no 2ndary weapon. Personally, I’d like to see the Magnum to help fight against DMRs or other ranged weaponry.
Just don’t want to see matches end in a complete shutout, like how in Halo 3 where Bungie thought it was a cool idea to have 4v4 AR slayer on Valhalla.
It was my understanding that legendary slayer was supposed to be the answer to a classic playlist. Yet sprint is still enabled. I’ll still check it out. But i would much rather wait another month if need be to get a single playlist that does not feature sprint.
