343 You guys have done an awesome job with this game. I was beginning to worry that Halo 3 was the high point of the halo series with regards to online multiplayer. I hope you guys will consider my feedback. I love that your shields do not regen when you sprint. That is a stellar feature. The game played extremely smooth and fluid. I also really like how you switch to your handgun faster than any other weapon, great add on. Granted these may just be the way it is because it is a beta, but here’s a few recommendations I have: Get rid of the deathcam, thats cod and part of halo is being able to see your dead body and cycle to your teammates and also add a respawn timer; however, I would highly suggest adding a Final Killcam, that would be sweet.
I’ll agree with you on the deathcam, but keep it as an option for custom games. A final killcam is a good idea, so long as you still get enough time to do the traditional post-game betrayal and suicide fest.
I got a great idea:
Add an armor color change animation. During the beginning of the match, when you see your team standing together, there should be an animation where each member’s armor changes from the color you set your Spartan to in the customization screen the color of your team. At the end of the match, while the winning team is giving each other props, you’d see their colors change back to their personal colors.
This adds to the sense that you are controlling your own Spartan, and not just some other red or blue guy, which I always hated.
More realistic changes:
I believe the K/D/A ratio should really be changed back to a K/D ratio, as a KDA isn’t not a very good gauge of skill.
Armor lock pickups and a vibration toggle in the settings would also be welcome. Please change rocket launcher back to the classic. This new one looks way too bland.
Also, the concept art should stay in the loading screen. Everyone loves seeing it.
