Halo 4 Loadout question.

I’m sure everyone already knows about the loadout system.

Taken from bulletin:
Each loadout contains a Primary Weapon, Secondary Weapon, Grenade, Armor Ability, Tactical Package and Support Upgrade. As you rank up, you will gain access to the Armor Ability slot (SR-3), the Tactical Package slot (SR-7), and the Support Upgrade slot (SR-12).

We have default loadouts in our War Games playlists to give you a preview of these items before you reach those ranks, and to offer an alternative to your own custom loadouts.

Main Thread area.
But something came to mind recently, since you can create your own loadouts in Halo 4 war games, what about if you have guest accounts with you during xbox live? Do they create their own loadouts or will they use your loadouts that you have made? or can they only use the preset loadouts?

The thing is if they can create their own loadouts will guest have their own progression system? because like in the bulletin you will gain access to the aa slot etc etc. but i doubt guest will have their own system.

I think guest controllers use the Preset Loadouts.

Good question, my guess would be that guests can create their own loadouts, with same options and the gamertag, who’s guests they are.

i’m guessing it might be like this too, sometimes i have friends/cousins over and we split screen 4 player. (2 consoles, two people on each console - ie 2 guests total).

i just tweeted Josh Holmes to see what he says about this.

I dislike guests. Everytime i get a guy with one or a few on my team they drag us down. But OT im guessing they might do what COD does and just give the guest access the same things the main account has. Its simpler that way.

Yeah some guests are really bad. Like all the time, but not when i play with my cousins/friends =P.

This is why we need social and ranked playlists seperated. You dislike guests, well some of us enjoy playing with friends on the same couch. Hopefully there will be seperated ranked and social playlists so people like you don’t get their gaming experience ruined because of people who are new to the game and aren’t as skill as you are.

There are people with different skill levels, not everybody is pro at the game, learn to respect that and let people enjoy the game even though they aren’t as good as you are.
I could say I dislike you, you’re not as good as me and I don’t like playing with people like you because you aren’t as skilled as me. (Sounds idiotic, right?)

I was afraid you’d take my statement as elitest BS. But i did not mean that. I don’t mind split screen i just feel more comfortable with 2 players on the same TV then a main and a guest. Maybe its because i’ve always had bad experiences with guests. Dunno.

I don’t think all guests are. But playing splitscreen does hinder performance. And while im all for sharing (not many people can be lucky to have many TV’s) I just don’t enjoy it all too well. But guests or not ill still enjoy halo 4. But we are getting a little off topic.

ok, lets get back on the guest loadout thing.

> ok, lets get back on the guest loadout thing.

Like i said in my first post. The guests will probably have the same things the main account has. Its easier that way.

Either the same things as the main account, or they can only use the pre-set loadouts.

Yeah, alot of people is thinking this.
