CTF Pistol?

<mark>Do not make nonconstructive posts.</mark>

In a recent community update it said something along the lines of “Your team is your weapon” and “This is heard throughout the studio”. I ask this… If my team is my weapon, why are you allowing us to weild a pistol and a flag? This essentially gives us more than enough defence in a so-called team sport. It also goes against what you just said. I want to rely on my team to back me up, not play Lonely CTF Simulator 2016.
This decision shows that you didn’t hear us when we gave you the necessary feedback to creating a more competitive environment with Halo 4.
If anyone disagrees with me, feel free to post below because it’ll take a lot of effort to convince me this is made for Arena and encourages team work.

Did you play Halo 4 CTF? The magnum is helpful for sure but you’re not going to be capping flags left and right with the pistol alone. A team escort is way more valuable.

in my opinion this game will need the pistol/flag duo. the reason behind my opinion is that the game is not a slow pace halo anymore it is a fast pace run and gun and without the pistol CTF will not run smooth.

Dude, this was discussed to death in the Halo 4 forums. 3 YEARS AGO. It’s back again so all you can do is get used to it.

Halo CE had vehicles with CTF on Blood Gulch and that turned out fine unlike Halo 4. Vehicles makes things faster so what is the need of the pistol? I’ve heard the flag isn’t a one hit melee so anyone can spartan charge the flag carrier. It just doesn’t sound like classic CTF if we have to change tactics for the best outcome.
