Before anybody starts flaming me, let me explain my point that I’m trying to make.
The point is that Halo 4 desperately needs a whole entire Classic Playlist to bring a lot more people back to Halo 4 and to make Halo fun to play again. I’m not saying to remove the other Gametypes and Settings. I’m just saying to make a whole entire Classic Playlist while leaving the other gametypes alone. The Classic Settings should be:
- No Sprint
- No Loadouts
- No Perks
- No Armor Abilities
- No Weapon Indicator
- No Grenade Indicator
- No Killcams
- No Bloom
- No Instant Respawn
- No Ordinance Drops
- No Point System
- No Flinch
- Descope
- Red X’s
- Friendly Fire
- Weapons and Grenades on maps
- Default Weapon Start
- In-Game CSR System
- Search option for Matchmaking
If there is any Classic Settings that I forgot to mention, let me know.
The Classic Gametypes should be:
- Classic Lone Wolves
- Classic Team Doubles
- Classic Team Slayer
- Classic Team Snipers
- Classic Team SWAT
- Classic Rumble Pit
- Classic Big Team Battle
- Classic Team Objective
- Classic Multi Team
- Classic Action Sack
Let me know if I missed any other Classic Gametype.
I would rather see 343 put power ups, magnum secondary, and classic/arena style forge maps in Legendary Slayer. Also Team variants based on primaries (Team BRs,Team LRs, etc). If they could turn off Sprint then they should do it in LS. Another playlist will only split the population more and cause even longer wait times/lag.
However I would absolutely LOVE a playlist(s) with the features you mentioned.
Legendary Slayer is a joke at the moment. Its not classic and is overall pointless IMO. I wouldnt hold my breathe for a Classic playlist or any improvements to Legendary Slayer. 343 is out of touch with the community(IMO) so we’ll have to accept H4 for what it is.
Best I can say is pick up Halo 3 when you get annoyed with Halo 4.
I said “Somewhat” because the option for “Yes” was too extravagant. But, while I probably wouldn’t play it, plenty of others would, so I don’t see why this sholdn’t be a thing.
I agree with you about Legendary Slayer being a joke. They haven’t disabled Sprint for it either. What doesn’t make any sense is that they kept Sprint in that Gametype, but yet the movement speed is already fast enough without it. Also, where are all the other Classic Gametypes besides Legendary Slayer. The weapon tuning didn’t make the game much better either. I’ve completely quit playing the Multiplayer all together. I just wished that 343 would’ve added different Playlists in the game from the start.
You’re totally right OP. Even though I prefer a lot of the elements brought into Halo 4 over classic arena gameplay, it’s completely unfair that faction of fans was ignored this game. Hopefully more classic styled gametypes are added to the game before Halo 5’s release.

I agree with everything except these and the playlists.
Red Xs have already been added and Friendly Fire is enabled in most gametypes. Some of these would require a massive Title Update to implement. The rest do not impact gameplay that much, so I’d say that they’re a bit greedy to ask for.
The population is stretched thin across the existing playlists as it is; we need half the number of existing playlists, not double.
Team Doubles and infinity slayer both need a slayer pro variant with radar. That’s the way it was in Team doubles or Team slayer for Halo 3, BR/AR starts with radar.
ASAP pronto. I’m tired of choosing between care package slayer with people flying or pro BR with no radar. Why can’t we get the middle ground.
Also they should take out Sprint.
