Which of the features in Reach that failed to make it into Halo 4 where you most disappointed by the absence of? Firefight was of course a big loss, but I was also quite disappointed that xp could no longer be directly accumulated in campaign, reducing its replayability and forcing me to play the dull and repetitive spartan ops missions. Also the sticky grenade launcher would of fitted well alongside the new UNSC sticky grenade launcher and I thought the way the beam rifle functioned in Reach was great, disappointed to see it return to single shot. Finally skirmishers where a nice class, would be a shame for them to disappear from Halo completely.
Halo Reach and Skirmishers…it was set before the downfall of The Covenant.
Halo 4 is four years after the fall, the Elites have reformed the Covenant with themselves at the helm and may not have included the Skirmishers in this newer formation of it.
Or The Covenant fleet that orbited Requiem may not have included Skirmishers.
The Beam Rifle was not in Reach. That was called the Focus Rifle. They were two completely different guns.
I miss Action Sack. Being able to play things like Rocket Race, Soccer/Hokey, Halo Ball (Skee-Ball) and all the other crazy games was awesome. It’s a little sad that 343 seems to have gone away from embracing that craziness.
Race gametype, simply put, everyone loves playing custom games, but now we cant race unless you drive perfectly all the way to the end, which, if it is a long track can prove to be difficult
I agree with this guy, losing the ability to get credits in campaign really slowed me down through my legendary solo run. Plus we lost the grenade launcher that had the EMP burst which was really well done in Reach (although I still consider it a power weapon). Not to mention Grifball which I seriously hope makes a comeback in Halo 4, it wouldn’t be hard to include it. And finally we lost Invasion, my all time favorite Halo gameplay mode ever. Capture the Flag simply can’t ever hope to compare with it.
And a single tear was shed
Of course with all the new additions in Halo 4, I won’t complain too much if they just promise to bring back more of the stuff in a update like they did with team snipers.
Grifball isn’t gone; it merely hasn’t be put up yet; the game-type is in the Halo 4 Strategy Guide, and BravoMLG has multiple videos of it.
On Topic: I miss evade. Dear lord, the thrill of lunging twice to butcher someone’s head in infection was so satisfying, especially when you were supposed to be at an disadvantage. Also, I do miss invasion. While I sucked at it, starting with a shotgun is something every Spartan should miss.
Evade lol
Chess.
Race.
Forgeworld.
Resemblance of good customs.
