Disclaimer: I only really play online and thats all i care about so no campaign stuff please
My love of the halo series is waning …
343 havent come up with anything that original for online gameplay and have just copied the ideas of CoD etc to encourage reviewers and half hearted gamers to give it good ratings and play…
Loadouts: basically extended again from reach to become more like CoD with things, why does it make a difference how long you have been playing to how good you are, defeats my thoughts on halo where its an even battlefield and you just have to be better to win this is taken even further with specialisations!!
Grenades - yeah you start off with 2 but the grenades are useless and you have to find them, no picking them up off someone else - we can pick up ammo so whats the difference… so once you have used them its an effort if you want new ones, especially if you have been weakened and are running away no sneaky grenades can be chucked on the edge of corners
Give me my emblem: Why have emblems become so important that i have to unlock the one i always use…
Spawning: instant respawn reallyyyyyyyyyy…
Gametypes: Wheres my beloved snipers and swat and why cant i just play an easy game of free for all without someone being a “king”
KILLCAM: This is one of the most annoying things in the game imo…i dont wanna see myself die from the other guy that killed me’s point of view, save me the time and let me spawn without mashing x! also, any clever tactics that people develop w/e get found out
Sprinting: It was fine as an armour ability but to have it always on? This could be due to the larger maps
Join in progress: I have always liked the challenge of playing after losing a player sure it can be annoying but thats life - its much better than joining with <10 kills left on a -Yoink- team!
Lack of weapons on map/Ordanance: One of the things that has always been important of me was having weapons in equal places on the map and a challenge to get them, now there are barely any weapons on the map and the best way to get them is to wait for your support package and pull a power weapon
- No one knows what the other team has so when i go round the map get a shotgun with my personal ordanance
Also due to ordanance - like killstreaks on CoD it encourages people not taking risks and camping in a corner until they get something good - until now in halo accept for loosing a weapon (or the game lol) there has never been a problem with dying.
Considering they have had the ability to go through everything and find out what halo players actually like they have instead just tried to milk the CoD cow.
