Firstly, here’s a preview from Destructoid where the previewer talks about what he saw in addition to the video here on Waypoint:
He makes note that there WILL be a return of Loadouts, AAs, and somehow customizing “gameplay” (This could be AAs).
While we clearly see no bloom in effect, and the HUD from the 343 video has no indication of AAs…This could really swing both ways. I am really hoping the only AA in multiplayer is sprint, and it’s been turned into a dedicated button.
I’m also rightly concerned with a lack of a Beta. I understand that they’re in crunch, but we should have the opportunity to give our feedback, ESPECIALLY if AAs and Loadouts are making a return in evolved form.
I’ll be honest, that preview and video just raised more questions and gave me reason to question Halo 4 more than get me hyped. With a lack of Beta, I am now very skeptical about my purchase of Halo 4.
Feel free to hate on me, but these are legitimate concerns people. Don’t get your hopes up just yet. For all we know, this could be another Reach.
Edit: Perks have been confirmed. Definitely canceling my pre-order now, and waiting on more details.
Like I said weeks before, we will be spawning automaticly with Sprint and thruster. Thier will be NO AAs that you can spawn with. And the Loadouts are for fundamental preferences(As comfirmed by G4TV) so nothing that really changes the gameplay too harshly.

When you heard them say perks, did you really think of the exact same system in call of duty?
you haven’t even seen them in action, what are you 12? anything that smells even a little like cod…must be crapped on because it makes you look cool.

Yes, I did. Because that’s what a perk system IS. They’re benefits that are awarded off-spawn to give you an advantage.
That is not Halo. They better have come up with something DAMN original and mind-blowing, otherwise this is just another gimmick that pushes Halo further from its roots.
Not because it makes one look cool. Its because many people dont like the system of rewarding more experienced players with more powerful toys. Im much better than many of my friends, because of that I make a point of not using power weapons against them.

Play H3 if you want that experience. How happy would you be if every album your favorite emo band releases sounds the same. uh wait
