Yeah, Christmas is coming and here is my personal wishlist for Halo 4:
[Everybody else, feel free to add what you’d want for christmas… regarding H4, of course]
A red X after someone of the own team is killed.
Scoring or rather popping up medals in campaign and spartan ops. - Where are the medals???
A normal FFA playlist.
Firefights.- If you can’t implement the mode, could you do a spartan ops mission resembling one? - Maybe one like this in every following episode?
Some other specializations… not all of us were so lucky and got their hands on the limiteds.
CSR and/or visual ranking/skill system in wargames for playlist and players in general (like H3).
An instruction manual for the game! - Seriously, no manual is a cheap way to save money.
A better JIP system! In reality it’s not working and always joining on already doomed teams is and/or a game that’s almost over is…
An additional slot for using support or tactical packages, if that wouldn’t unbalance the game too much.
More skins for weapons and/or armors! That was hyped soo much… yet the result is… well…
Finally a playlist where one can play larger maps also just 4on4.
Information on what commendations worth how much, were received during a game, at the level up screen!
I know, some wishes are probably unrealistic others might be easy for Santa 343… we will see.
If anyone else has more, please keep up the numbering, so that it will be easier to reference and/or discuss single wishes.
A red X after someone of the own team is killed.
Sorta miss it, I can deal without it. Brings more competitive-ness? Into playing. So instead of shouting “on my X” You can actually talk with your team.
Scoring or rather popping up medals in campaign and spartan ops. - Where are the medals???
No. no. annndddd no. That was so lame to be put into any of those it really should be exclusive to MP only…

1.: Got your point! But it still is kind of delaying, isn’t it? Just screaming “Shoot at my X” will also not help most of the time, because sometimes you might have 3 Xs at once, scattered all over the map. So communication would still be important.
2.: I don’t understand that. Why MP exclusive? I like to see when I do an overkill during campaign or spops… it doesn’t harm, does it? On the contrary, it even helps to see if a grunt really goes down and you can aim on the next one. I understand that it’s more challenging the way it is without medals, but in kind of decreases combat performance, wouldn’t you agree?

lol that so true i agreed with you on that but that the thing everyone gotta say something wrong take the whole DMR stuff its not overpower its the the sniper and BR baby enough said
Agree. I still say on my X while playing, not realizing half the time that I don’t have one anymore.
Agree.
I don’t particularly care, but I’m sure 343 will add it in eventually.
Spartan Ops is the ‘evolution’ of Firefight. And particularly in Ep2, there are times when I feel like I’m doing nothing but pointlessly fighting wave after wave of enemies. Overall, I’d say its an improvement, even if FF 2.0 had a lot more customization to it.
Pretty sure these are coming soon. Or so the rumor mill goes…
Coming in January, once 343 has ensured it works as intended without boosters and such screwing with their statistics.
It’s digital. I don’t actually know where it is (haven’t looked), but I would imagine it shouldn’t be hard to find.
Maybe COD has dulled me to it, but I have never been very frustrated about joining a losing game. If anything, I’m happy I joined so quickly, and it allows me to join my friends mid-game.
Maybe for custom games, I can see it turning out pretty interesting, but overall it would just screw over the game’s balance.
Yes! Definitely, although the clutter when choosing armor would likely get ridiculous.
This one doesn’t really affect me. I normally play objective or btb.
Definitely slight, but I agree nonetheless.
Custom Games are certainly in a rough state, but there’s too many things that need to get changed or edited. While I’m certain 343 will do their best to ‘fix’ custom games, I’m fully expecting to be stuck with the current lineup for a long time to come.
I agree for an option for that. Perhaps even have a spare life pool for the whole team, like Firefight was?
I agree to an extent. Some of them are fine, but when I consistently spawn behind enemy lines it gets kind of annoying.

You know, I agree on that one too, because people like you should not participate in such a community. Besides stating an immature and plain stupid comment, your “participation” in this thread is not welcome, for it has nothing to do with it!
If you have NOTHING to say then SHUT THE YOINK! UP! Nobody told you to leave a message here, or are you one of these guys that needs to collect posts and feels better because of it!
Great, now my christmas mood is ruined and this actually as fun intended way of summarizing and discussing the points that 343 obviously missed, goes down the drain! The meanwhile 15 or 16 points on the list HAVE A POINT! Actually I would call myself a fanboy too, but given such statements like yours make me feel sad for the obviously “real” fanboys…
H4 is great! BUT still there are a lot of things that are missing or even turned out to be bad… while some of them are subjective most of them affect or rather reflect the thoughts of almost the entire community! E.g.: In this forum about maybe 90% of the people complain about no red X, so how dare you implying 90% of us are wrong and that the community is full of idiots!
I will not respond to anymore of your useless posts. Furthermore I encourage everyone else also not to respond to such idiotic posts. Stick to the topic and add or post your thoughts about certain points, BUT if you have nothing more then yoink! to say, then leave. Please, just leave!
Hell, make it better spawning in general. I get spawned directly in front of people all the time. Depending on our positions, they may kill me, or I may kill them. I also see people spawn in front of me. They need to make spawns either around the edges of the map, out of view of most high-travel areas, or inside buildings (which have no enemy players in them currently). I get spawned in the middle of some wide open area with an enemy player scouting it out (or a sniper), and thanks to bullets slowing you down I can’t run to safety. It’s especially bad in SWAT, when you’ll get spawned out in the open and gunned down immediately.
