More Bad news… Again
This basically confirmed that we are going to have CoD style perk system in Halo 4. and now instead of buying a 50, you can just buy extra perks and gimmicks for you pointless, meaningless ranks. But this time Microsoft gets to cash in.
COD Blue Perk: Armor abilities
COD Red Perk: Modifications
COD Green Perk: Specifications
Are you for Real?
I mean, can this get any more surreal? 343i has completely lost the plot and is going head first into an oblivion. It’s going to end in tears. I’m all for change, I’m really am. But not crappy change, change that clearly doesn’t work and will ruin this game and ruin Halo. I can here it now “don’t Judge before playing”. This would be fine but there is NO beta, no chance to test the game beforehand, unless I cash in to 343 of course.
Reach the Curse
It all started with reach, after all those complaints, all of that discussion about bloom and AA and the maps or whatever, it’s clear as day that those thing did not work and what do we get? the same old rubbish that flopped in reach is going to be put straight in Halo 4, and 343 is claims to change what for halo 4 exactly?
Halo needs to change, but those changes need to go in the direction of HALO. NOT call of Duty. Scrap this nonsense and work of the trilogy.
Discuss. I hope I’m wrong… Doesn’t look like it though.
Hopefully your thread won’t get locked like mine, perhaps you have a more civil way of discussing these things than me.
I agree with your post. Which sounds like the most logical choice out of these two:
-Reach flopped hard. Let’s abandon the features which attracted so much hate, and just go back to our Halo 2-3 roots. Perhaps even improve on them
-Reach flopped hard. Even though most of the new features were hated, let’s add them to Halo 4, with a few basic alterations, surely it will work this time?
It’s like George Lucas deciding to make a new Star Wars film and using the new trilogy for his inspiration instead of the more loved original trilogy. Reach is the Jar Jar Binks of Halo.
OP.
Ive seen your posts around.
Let me say that I dislike what you are doing.
You contribute nothing to these forums but hate and negativity.
Specializations and Modifications are the same thing.
Just give up.
BTW OP. Bloom is not as featured in reach. From the info given its either a small aim deterant (like the halo CE pistol) or like the reach sniper (just showing us when we can shoot again)
Its not bad news. Its not even new news.
> Halo needs to change, but those changes need to go in the direction of HALO.
What is the direction of HALO? I thought it was open to interpretation.
Not that I’m really enthused about these modifications, specializations, whatever, but we don’t even have any full context of what they do and if they even effect game play dramatically.
I’m sure E3 will provide more details, either elevating your concerns or negating them. I won’t make any false promises to you.
I’m sorry you are not liking the way Halo 4 is looking, but there’s nothing you can do to change it. Either move on from Halo or just wait for the game to release to make a final judgement.
This is the way I look at it. I blame Bungie AND 343i. Why is this? Well Bungie made the god awful Reach and had a great influence on H4. Now this leads to me blaming 343i on making similar mechanics into H4.

Why do people like this not get banned, while I get banned for calling someone a casual?
The mods on this forum are the most biased I’ve ever seen.
A perk system is great because I know how they will do it. Heavy army equals slightly harder to kill but also slower, so there’s advantages and disadvantages making it a more fair perk system. It’s not a bad thing really, I like it, for once armor will mean something, otherwise armor is pointless, glad its here
There is really nothing we can do, yeah it sounds like another useless gimmick but well 343 is obviously not respecting or building off past multiplayer games too much.
Even though we both disagree on the direction of Halo 4, you are right. That is bull -Yoink-. I hope things like that won’t happen too much more in the future.
I am already narked about the ‘Limited Edition’ please, sell ONE COMPLETE GAME!
IF this game is as bad as it is starting to look (and let me tell you I was VERY excited by the trailer) then I can tell you it will be the end of my journey with HALO. and what’s more, I will be VERY sad. =-(
I agree that this guy should be banned, just report it if you find it offensive.
I believe your thread was banned for
Comparing a casual player to somebody with down syndrome, showing a real lack of classBut I may be wrong. Can we please get back to discussing Halo 4 and not bashing the mods?
