How do you get topics etc seen by 343?

Sorry if wrong forum, But i’m curious.

Do they monitor the forums looking for good threads to get ideas from or what?

Should i PM ideas to mods?

Because personally i have 2 very near flawless ideas for halo 4

But i don’t know how to get them noticed.

one involves quitting/quit ban

the other involves host/host ban/ black screen reduction.

Help meh! :slight_smile:

343 staff such as Kiki Wolfkill and Frank O’Connor don’t post here. But they do read the posts, and others read the posts and pass ideas to the higher-uppers.

> Sorry if wrong forum, But i’m curious.

General discussion seems an appropriate section.

> Do they monitor the forums looking for good threads to get ideas from or what?

I’ve seen direct responses and action based on activity here on this forum.

> Should i PM ideas to mods?

They tend not to care for that unless it concerns moderation of threads and such.

> Because personally i have 2 very near flawless ideas for halo 4

Sweet, I would suggest the Halo 4 forum, thats your best shot.

> But i don’t know how to get them noticed.

Create a thread and fill it with your idea and how it would be implemented and why it would be beneficial, be prepared to be able to defend it and explain, that should do the trick.

> one involves quitting/quit ban

That does seem to be prevalent problem, Im sure many would welcome a solution for that.

> the other involves host/host ban/ black screen reduction.

I could use a little less of that too.

> Help meh! :slight_smile:

Did my best and good luck.

Restrain yourself from answering every response immediately, save at minimum one so that if it falls off page one, you may bump it back up (while adhering to forum rules). That will keep your topic well circulated and potentially viewed by the big cheeses (343).

For some reason, once viewed, links turn white, but other people that see it for the first time will see red.

Thank you kind sir :slight_smile:

They are impossible to see in a quote -.-

Short version: you don’t get them noticed

if 343 had a dollar for every time somebody posted what they felt was a great idea for Halo 4 they wouldn’t have to make any products ever to generate revenue

Why don’t you read the posts and then say this again?

Tell me what you honestly think. Obviously I am a bit bias but Myself and the communtity think they are good ideas.

Well, 343 probably already had these ideas a million times over. The thing is that they have to implement it. An idea that looks good on paper might not work in the actual game.

I already read your posts, and I don’t think you understood what I posted. 343 has over 200 people working on Halo 4, I don’t think they take any ideas from this place, thats what they have their employees for. And I don’t think anyone should be punished for black screen happenings and I don’t think it’s possible to set up a system to automatically detect a host who quits a lot. A better idea is dedicated servers, but as I already said I’m sure they have already thought about this

Also, it’s too late for ideas for Halo 4. They are finishing the game as is (with tweaks I’m sure but no new radical ideas)

You don’t know how the halo reach host system works then do you?

I can’t be bothered discussing /thread

Leave a little bit of turkey in your post, the employees will sniff it out.
