Concerns & Questions

I accidentally posted this in another general discussion… anywho…

Some concerns I have:

  1. Friendly fire against vehicles
    -I find it really frustrating when I get that gauss warthog or tank on Exile, and one of my allies gets mad that he didn’t get it, then decides he wants to chuck 2 sticky grenades on my vehicle and then shoot at it.

  2. The game should provide the option to disable music
    -From the woman singing at game start up to the ambient music when waiting in a war game queue, the music is just downright getting old and annoying (No offense). I would really like to see the option to disable this.

  3. Re-rolling vote selections
    I would like to see the option to vote for other options, like in Halo Reach. If I’m feeling like I want to play on Exile all day, I would like to vote for an option to bring up a new choice of maps to vote from (provided Exile isn’t one of the choices). I also notice 80% of the time i get the same three maps, Shatter, Wreckage, and Longbow… it seems to not be pseudorandom among individual map seletions, but rather, random among a choice of groups…

Now that I got my concerns out of the way, I have some questions:

  1. Do deaths by betrayal go on your record? If so, I think they shouldn’t.
  2. When playing with guests, do guests kills/deaths count toward your record? Again if this is the case, I think they shouldn’t.
  3. Are more maps going to be revived from previous games?
  4. Theres a forum called 343industries.org, is this trademark infringement?
  1. yes
  2. no
  3. maybe, but don’t be sure of that
  4. possible

> 1. Do deaths by betrayal go on your record? If so, I think they shouldn’t. I believe so. Keep that shotgun away from me and aim at teh Flood

However, if they are afk, it will count as you not playing even if you are moving around the map and killing players. It’s to counter boosters from farming kills too much with idle guests.

Answer in bold.

I did some looking around and found that registering a domain that uses a trademarked name can be trademark infringement. The only way they aren’t in violation of that is if they have special permission from Microsoft.

Also thanks for the responses fellas. I appreciate it.
