Ill say that right now im new to halo and i know litte of what the community thinks about this kind of customization so i will only post what i belive it would make the game more interesting in future content
Share your thoughts here and opinions to better improve this amazing game that im learning as so many others to admire.
Considering what i read about the weapons modfications and skins i think the best way for 343 to give us modifications to our weapons would be from weapons skins.
I mean there are numerous challanges avaible in halo 4 and (as far as i know) none of them offers weapon skins, hell i would love to see my DMR with some desert camo or jungle camo that would add to to my costumization making it more unique, i mean i cant see how that would cause problems to the gameplay or make it more like COD.
now something i will understand that i wont mention here is weapon mods i agree that adding those may compromise the current game without making a total revamp of wargames or spartan ops, a thing or two i think that would improve both cosmetics and playability of the game would be adding tags attached to ur weapon (something i noticed in another game that would be very intresting in halo) those tags come with benefits like increase in armor, shield, ammo, etc, etc.
BUT THAT WILL CHANGE THE GAME MECHANICS ! no it wont…those tags will give a small increase on ur stats that will be something like to 1-3% maybe not even that (im not a 343 employee to say how much that will change the gameplay) anyway that will also add funny and pleasent cosmetic improvements that will make ur weapons more unique maybe a customized tag with no stats or can be added with a already earned tag (from achivements of course) from ur spartan symbol ? you guys will be the judge.
And to finalize the weapons section i realy would like to see the two-hand weapons again, i mean look at sarah palmer…that gal use two pistols to kick promethean asse during the whole game while we usea RPG just to take down their freaking shield ! (jokes aside)…
Thats one i think the veterans may/may not like but we have to agree that, hell we are spartans (super bio enchanced soldiers) we could use two-hand pistols or SMGs that would make both cometic or playability more pleasing, i was thinking that matching the two hand weapons could match a normal assault rifle or a DMR ? idk you seasoned spartans tell me what u think on that.
Now about Season 2 in spartan ops its actualy a question that i would like to ask.
I couldn’t find any information about it, if it is underway or not, and i would like to know if anyone has an update maybe a site i can keep track of it (i know u in halowaypoint duh ! best place as any) more specificly a news website like IGN or GAMESPOT ? u proboly gonna point me those i just said but i rather know from ur guys advice.
Hope my opinions please both new and old players and give some good discussion about it.
