If It wasn’t for Halo there would be no xbox, there would be no xbox 360. There would be no Call of Duty. Halo has the unwritten right to use any feature from any shooter game out there. It should be an honor for a company to have there idea put into a Halo game. Having perks in Halo 4 would be awesome. call of duty’s MP is fun, but it would be something great if it was Halo.
I don’t care if they’re copying the idea or not. A bad idea is a bad idea, regardless.
I think that you view Halo a little too highly.
Without Halo there would still be COD, Xbox and the 360 but XBL wouldn’t of blown up as much as it did back in the day if it wasn’t for Halo 2.
No matter what they do with it, it’ll still piss some people off.
Can’t be helped, so just ignore it all.
It doesn’t bother me that they are taking ideas from another game as much as it that a progressive unlock system that affects gameplay destroys what Halo multiplayer is based on: everyone starts off with equal footing and uses map control and team work to win the game. No amount of tweaking is going to change that
