I am seeing a problem with my Loadouts in Halo 4.
I was in BTB matches. ALL 5 of my custom loadouts have the Jetpack. Each time I would respawn in a BTB the Jetpack would NOT work but instead make me Sprint instead. The indicator on the lower left of the screen was for the Jetpack, but I could only Sprint. The indicator did not show any usage while I was sprinting. I tried selecting my different loadouts but they all gave the same results…Jetpack option made me Sprint instead.
Is this forum for 343i to be alerted to legitimate bugs?
If so, they how about acknowledging when someone posts a bug so they know it’s been seen?
Are you sure that you’re pressing the right button? I’ve seen people use jetpack in btb all the time. Everyone has sprint by default. There is another button for your armor abilities.

I’ll just say that I’ve pre-ordered every Halo since Halo 1. Purchased every game except Halo2-PC (wasn’t about to move to Vista) and Halo Wars. Still play H4, sooooo yes, I’m sure it’s not because I’m hitting the wrong button 
Sometimes it’s the simple things, so i had to ask 
What happens if you switch from the jetpack to another ability, does that one work? Or is it just limited to the jetpack?

Understood!
I haven’t altered my loadouts yet. But that was going to be my next step.
Okay, UPDATE
I changed my armour ability to Shield for one Loadout and Hologram for another. Same thing. Each time I tried using the armour ability, it only Sprinted.
Then I started thinking about all the other Halo4 BTB’s I have been in (maybe 15-20 to date) and I have NEVER once heard or seen ANY OTHER player use anything other than Sprint. Even the few Halo4 BTB’s I played today, all anyone ever did was Sprint.
I highly doubt every player on all those BTB’s matches had Sprint for all their loadouts.
I consider this a BUG!
Can someone from 343i please respond and acknowledge that you are aware of this?
I know of no other place to report issues…
I have used different loadouts in btb and have used shield and hologram, so I know it works. The reason you don’t see alot of people that don’t use armor abilities is the fact that not many people even bothered to setup their loadouts in the settings. You can tell by the people that start with assault rifles instead of dmr or battle rifles.
Although I have noticed that loadouts tend to reset between games, as all of my loadouts were overwritten, but just the armor abilities portion.
Wish it worked for me. I loved Jetpack, and loved it even MORE in Reach!
Just to be clear it seems that there are some games in Halo4 BTB where the loadouts are pre-defined and jetpack is NOT an option (don’t know why they would have pre-defined load outs, but give MCC’s bugs to date…).
What I am bringing to light is NOT that scenario. The BUG I am seeing is in games where MY loadouts are an option. The Jetpack does not work (nor do any other armour abilities). They are all replaced by Sprint, despite the Jetpack symbol in the HUD.
343…do you read these bug reports? This is supposed to be the support forum.
You can try tweeting @bravo and making him aware of the bugs. He seems to be able to notify the team of most bugs in a timely fashion.
