If you play Reach, you know what these are. These annoying windows that tell you that you may earn 2,000= credits by playing objective or waypoint has updated.
I frankly think these are very annoying and we are forced to have to wait instead of immediately closing them.
I think Halo 4 needs a news tab for this so people who care can access the information and it is not an inconvenience to everyone else. It feels like a ad I have to watch in order to see a youtube video.
I kind of agree but at the same time an extra 20-30 seconds really isnt that big of a deal
I believe the reason there is a delay is to prevent people from closing the notification without reading it/knowing it was there, since most people just tap A to get into matchmaking as quickly as possible once they load the game. I’m not sure why they didn’t just change the button used to close it from A to B, which would have fixed the issue.
A tab sounds good though. That, or just place a star/symbol next to playlists currently offering some kind of bonus, with the description of that bonus in the playlist description once you select it.
NO NO NO NO NO!
What happens when a new map comes out? And I didn’t know a thing about it?
Edit: I found about halo 4 from it TOO!
They shouldn’t remove it but you should be able to bypass it without waiting.
that’s a one great thing Halo has but Call of N00bs and BattleN00bs doesn’t

I never said remove them, I said make an optional news tab, like GOW3.

That’s the thread title though xD
I like having them, but I wouldn’t disagree with turning it off.

NO, NO NO!!!
You can still get them, BUT, they will be optional, like you can click a “news” tab to see the daily pop-up and see up to a week of previous news.
I hate junk mail and I really wish I wasn’t forced to see it every time I play Reach, I hope it is less apparent in halo 4.
what those windows are forced to stay for like 3-4 seconds tops. how could anyone be that impatient?

i can immediately close them down. and really!? youre so lazy that you cant wait 5 seconds to close a window…i cant believe this is even a topic…this is an insult and a disgrace to the forums! its just a 5 second pause and i would forget about it if it didnt show me when i got on so suck it up cuz i want it.
IT is like 5 seconds that you are forced to wait, 5 seconds! This, by far, must be the most stupid thing I have seen anyone complain about. But, on subject, I think that notification that tells you you are missing content is more annoying, regardless that to is like 5 seconds. Seriously, just stop.
I dont know if in spain we are getting this and there you dont but when i get into the MultiPlayer menu of Reach i get a message:
There are new maps for download,EVERYTIME,since the first DLC and everytime i must wait to this message pop out,close it and then start searching
Your idea is Beast,is one of the best idead i have seen in this forum
Why not?A file where you get all the news about,new maps,new gamemodes like in GOW3,but that this file have the NEW word in a color so we can see if there is any new
(BTW,200 post,any congrats?)

It is still a waste of time when I just want to play. The point is we shouldn’t be forced to read it if we don’t want to.
Why not make a news button or section to update more information?

alright then whenever one of those windows pops up: close your eyes spin in a circle for five seconds then rethink your life and complain about something that matters like armor lock.
The Question here is:Why they do this?Is like they enjoy watching us suffer for this tiny things

To try and alert us about stuff, usually things i don’t care about.
I just keep holding down A because I just want to play.
It gets annoying after a while and I would rather have a news section where I can see new updates.
Maybe even a click flash saying “hey check the news section for new content” but it DOESN’T take up the entire screen and you can still go to different menus, kind of like what Gears 3 does.
Really…we are arguing about a self-promo screen? It is in there for a reason. It’s not like 343i is sitting at their desks," I wonder how we can keep people staring at the screen without doing anything for as long as possible" -_-

But the screen is a pain, unnecessary, and annoying. It is the equivalent of a youtube ad and I want adblocker.
I want news but it should be optional, not something every time I start up Reach.
Yeah, make it a side option. Like you can hit “start” and there will be a notifications option that gets a star by it when there’s something new you haven’t looked at yet.
