This game is already getting old for me, and I’ve been following Halo 4 religiously since its announcement. Pre-ordered the limited edition, beat campaign on legendary opening day, and now I’m a 42 in MP. But now that the newness wore off, its almost hard to keep playing it. It could be the perfect game, but a lot of stuff is ruining it for me. Honestly, only thing that’s really keeping me on is ranking up, and I really don’t even care about that.
Every time I play with a party of 4 or less, we get matched against a full team and never get a new teammate through the whole game.
Getting joined into a game where your team is down 500 points and getting spawn raped is stupid.
Having a CQC instakill weapon off spawn (boltshot) is ridiculous.
The lag/latency in this game is horrendous. And sometimes its not even just lag, it’s just the game being limited. I got a zoomed in sniper headshot and then got killed by his DMR. About 2 seconds after I was dead, I got a snapshot and kill from the grave. WTF?
Why was customs raped? No one-flag? No assault? No weapons for zombies in Flood? Can’t remove sprint?
What’s with the playlists? Why not start with Doubles, Multi-team, Snipers, and everything else? I know you’ll probably add them eventually, but why not just start with them? And why is there a brand new gametype (Extraction) that doesn’t have a playlist?
Binary Rifle is way OP. 1SK to the body takes no skill at all. Just saying.
Why is there still no punishment for AFK? Did we not learn anything from Reach? I am beyond tired of having AFK teammates.
The menu ambiance is annoying as hell. (Not the music when you first get in, but when it switches to the repetitive annoying sounds.) I have to mute my headset when I’m at menu.
Having 2 mantises on a 5v5 CTF map is a bit overkill. I know you want to show off the new vehicle, but keep it in BTB only. It really doesn’t belong in a 5v5 playlist.
I know the feeling. I was glad to enjoy Halo 4’s campaign, but MP really gets old trying to get all the commendations. I’m already halfway to Master with the Pistol, and I only started really using it a couple days ago.
You forgot about the broken map issue. I LOVE the oddball playlist, but I’m getting really sick of people camping in the broken walls of Haven and Complex. I got to the point tonight where I just quietly finished a game and turned off my system.
Oh, and the campers. Something needs to be done about them. If I can’t see a guy that’s crouching with invisibility and a sword in plain sight when I’m using pro vision, that’s a serious issue. I picked pro vision SPECIFICALLY so I wouldn’t have to deal with kids doing this -Yoink- anymore.
343i, stop counting your money and get back to work please. This game has the potential to blow all of the other Halo games clean out of the water, but you need to make some major changes first.

Getting spawned into a game in general is stupid. I’ll decide my own fate, thanks. I don’t want it to be predetermined when I join a game.
Completely agree.
SERIOUSLY completely agree. Especially snipers.
Binary rifle’s fine in my opinion. They made it a bit harder to aim and gave it a HUGE LoS indicator so that the other team can find out where the sniper is more easily.
Completely agree.
Mantises are fine since both teams start out with them. If you’re playing a BTB map like Ragnarok and you’re stupid enough to not start with the plasma pistol and stickies, you deserve to get mantis raped.
MP is getting old to me too. Just much unfair things in the damage and health. Im lvl 54 On MP and the ranks confuse the crap out of me. Campain was great though.
