Theater was copy-pasted from Halo 3 to Halo: Reach with no significant improvements. I think it’s time for innovation.
SUGGESTIONS:
-Faster fast forward button; 0-16x
-Rewind button; 0-16x
-Ability to cut clips
-Ability to group clips (helpful to montage producers)
-Ability to trim clips
-Ability to upload clips; straight to Youtube or computer
-Ability to add transitions to clips
-Ability to add effects to clips
-Party-viewing (Credit to GreenDragon37)
-Folders for clips (Credit to DesertFox899)
There are so many possibilities. Theater needs to be revamped in someway in Halo 4 for the sake of progress.
EDIT: If you have any suggestions, let me know and I’ll add it to this post.
First things were liek
GUYS. Halo is totally becoming COD, Fix it!
Now it’s all liek
Guys! We should take things from Cod and put them in our game! It’ll make it better! Trust me.

You’re saying CoD created theater and all its features, and no program has ever done before? Nice logic, kid.

Not even comparable.
People complain about changes that are subjectively good or bad, not obvious, objectively good improvements (regardless of it they’re borrowed or not).
OT: Hopefully it’s at least as good as Halo 3’s. Reach’s was disappointing with its lack of party viewing.
I think it’s really time for a revamped theatre too. There’s so many possibilities for new features!
I’m not sure about this, but I think they said that they’d (As in 343 industries) make improvements to theatre in an interview ages ago.
Theater is due for an upgrade. What better time to upgrade than between two trilogies?
I wish they had theatre for Halo Wars.

Lol.
Not what I meant at all, but it’s totally fine to fly off the handle like that.

I can see plenty of people arguing this to be a gimmick.
It was a joke, calm down, Yes. I completely agree Theatre needs an upgrade.

Well, Excuse me.
Being rude like that is no way to make friends, you know.
I think it was down-graded actually. The Fast Forward Button is always greyed out and you can’t watch a film with anyone but yourself. I’m looking for an expansion too.
As long as it’s better than reach’s, reach’s wasn’t horrible but it was lacking some really useful features.

Halo 3 had theater, which was 3 years before Black Ops came out.
I definitely needs a lot of work. We need to actually be able to cut and groups clips to make films.
I just want a real rewind button, not the skip back a few seconds one 3 and Reach had. Maybe a slow motion button too, because holding the fast forward button very lightly to get the effect was annoying.
If Forge gets an overhaul in a new game, then Theater (a far less used feature) deserves an overhaul in a new trilogy. Theater is definitely starting to feel outdated.

I definitely wouldn’t say “far less.” People continuously are making montages and community clips. If anything, perhaps more.
I felt like they down-graded theater in Reach. Lack of party viewing was a big no-no. Bungie should have foreseen how bad of a mistake removing party-view would be.

Ah, yes. How could I forget that? Thanks for reminding me, I’ll add it to OP.
