I believe these changes to Halo 4 can only be beneficial to the game, and cause no harm.
Add the option to disable sprint
This is something fans have been asking for since day one, and I think it would help in some playlist
Add Assault
I know that it’s unlikely to happen, but assault would add variety to Big Team Skirmish, and was a fan favorite.
Add DLC Maps to more playlist
I know that not everyone has them, but I hate that I can’t play content I payed for on matchmaking
-Improve server quality
No explanation needed
-CSR visible in game
Could breathe new life into the game with competition
-Combine Big Team Infinity Slayer and Big Team Skirmish, recreating Reach’s playlist
Controversial, but would be much more enjoyable than anything else currently offered
-Add more Legendary playlist
The reason it’s not played much is that there no variety
-Add a separate Infection mode
Would add much more customization options for multiplayer
Feel free to add your own suggestions, and comments below.
Split the game up about 50-50: one half gets infinity settings, one is completely stripped of that and set up like throwdown/legendary. Of course, don’t make duplicates of each playlist, just differing between these settings, but make it so that people that hate infinity don’t have to flock to one particular playlist to play a more competitive shooter.

All great suggestions, just to clarify that there are no Game servers that host the game.
The only server involvement is to set up the game which is selecting people for the match for theLobby, then selecting which player is host, starting the game and then at the end tallying up the kills and showing the stats.
The host player basically controls game play once it starts, receiving info (location, shots, grenades vehicles etc.) from the players, then deciding who killed whom and when, then sending that info back to the players AND updating the game server on scores / kills etc.
So you can see that picking the best host for a match is crucial to everyone having a good game experience and that’s where 343 falls flat on it’s face because they do not pick the best host. As I explain in my Rant, here is how host is selected by 343:
This can actually be fixed on their Servers without changing the H4 game on your Xbox, because its’ the intitial server that decides whom is in the game and who is host.
And that’s why the 4 other multiplayer titles I play NEVER Lag like H4 does. It’s so bad that I stopped playing H4 on June 6 and have switched back to Halo Reach for multiplayer. I can deal with most of the other stuff 343 added, but having 0.5+ seconds of Lag 70% of the time makes the game unbearable and ZERO FUN.
also add more armor abilities and perks, I want more customization. and add in new and improved features such as diving, rolling, and climbing as well.
If anyone hasn’t noticed, your Armor, perks, and Weapon skins from the Champions Bundle are unavailable in Spartan Ops. This was indeed confirmed by bs angel before the DLC launched, which did in fact make some who were originally going to purchase the bundle reconsider.
Also, there are a few problems with Ricochet. If the player throws the ball out of bounds they automatically loose 100 points. While this may be something that you’d expect with a sports gametype, it’s terrible for customs. Hopefully 343 will address that too.
One last thing: The player’s arms on the the HUD will appear in their previous armor configuration if they are wearing any DLC armor. Strangely however, their legs will appear normally with the armor of their choosing.
Plenty of good ideas, I’ll try not to repeat anything. All I’ll say is it’s f’ing stupid that there are unlocks tied to modes you can barely (if at all) access. Lots of luck getting those KOTH and Oddball victory unlocks. What the hell, 343?
This pretty much went from a Title Update Suggestions thread to a Halo 5 wishlist. Just sayin’…
As for my desires, just the Falcon… I don’t buy the stuff they say when they can’t add anything to the game, because they said back at the beginning they couldn’t add anything beyond what was already programmed (current weapon skins and armors), and yet we have Steampunk weapons and the Infinity Armor pack. I know the Falcon is programmed in, as people have found it in the coding, and I just would like my VTOL back…
> also add more armor abilities and perks, I want more customization. and add in new and improved features such as diving, rolling, and climbing as well.
I think that’s a little too much for a simple title update…
You know what would be amazing to see added in? One-side and neutral objective gametypes.
I dearly miss gametypes like 1-flag and neutral Assault. They added a ton of variety in objectives, thus a ton of replayability. And what about the 3-flag gametype from Reach? The one with with one flag at each base worth 3(or 2?) points and one neutral worth 1. It would be amazing to see the return of that!

We have 8 AA’s, we do not need another. What slot would it fill anyway?
We have perks covered. Perks for shields, perks for radar, perks for picking up ammo…
We have 70-90 different armors(maybe a little hyperbole) though a colors add-on would be nice.
We have thruster for diving.
Thruster for rolling/jumping out of the way. Or you can just strafe…
In H3, we had climbing. Not so sure about this one, but I like that climbing type.
For my suggestion, maybe add a bullet or so to the DMR clip. I have no idea why it just went down a single bullet.
That’s all I have, I’m wiped at the moment.
