Instant Respawn: Needs to go.

Title says all. Instant respawn is the most terrible feature of this game. I understand you wanted to speed up the game, but trying to turn Halo into a noob CoD instant respawn fest isn’t gonna do it.

I keep posting these threads and there has been no negative feedback yet, but 343 doesn’t want to listen. Take off instant respawn. Especially in objective.

It’s funny because instant respawning isn’t terrible at all…it’s you guys thinking it is.
Man up boys!

Halo has always had a small problem with the spawns because of how the game works, instant respawn is just multiplying that problem. It’s the worst thing to happen to Halo ever.

Just before I get my real post down… I am NOT a CoD fanboy. I’m okay with Black Ops, but MW and previous COD games are trash. I love Halo, and have always preferred it. BUT I see NOTHING wrong with Instant respawn. It makes the game quicker, and so you’ve got to be quicker. Me and my team work better with it. We think faster, react faster. Because you never know when someone’s gonna pop up. I never did like the time waiting thing, though I’m glad they kept it for objective games… Because instant spawn in objectives… Now that, would break the game.

First off, all objective gametypes, except CTF, have instant respawn.

Second, it’s a problem because 90% of the time I watch someone’s kill cam, it’s of the person I just killed spawning near me and killing me before my shields recharge.

Where exactly is that enhancing game play? Players shouldn’t be rewarded with an easy kill by dying.

Does it make the game quicker? Yes. But the game play suffers for it. It’s not like Halo has a long spawn time. 5 seconds? It makes all the difference between a well paced game, and a frantic noob fest.

I love instant respawns because I don’t have to watch noobs tea-bag me anymore

I agree. The instant respawns are incredibly annoying in objective game types. However, they work well in infinity slayer and regicide.

Yet again the solution for whiners is to simply get good

Lets play, i’ll smash your face into the ground.

Instant respawns are really bad, even in slayer. If you think instant respawns are good for the game, it’s simply because you haven’t played this game at a high enough level.

And that’s fine, some people are bad, and like being bad, I don’t think they should take instant respawn out in infinity slayer.

But in objective based gametypes, and any type of slayer that’s attempting to be taken seriously, instant respawns need to go.

instant respawn = garbage gameplay

That’s a little harsh. Instant respawn really isn’t that bad at all, let alone “the worst thing to ever happen to Halo”. It speeds up gameplay and I personally, have never had a problem with it.

I agree, instant respawn doesn’t really add much to the game. It doesn’t increase pace of the game, rather it just adds more frustration. The timer gave you time to gather your bearing and figure out what to di while the other person was able to recharge his shields. This doesn’t happen in Halo 4 and I will tell you it really bothers me how I can out BR a guy and then he can clean me up 2 seconds later because of instant respawn. A famous line of halo was 2 players enter a room, one exits and the other is respawning. With Halo 4 though it is one exits and the other is sprinting back as fast as he can to catch him with weak or no shields

have you ever thought about being remotely decent to any other human beings?

I agree instant respawn wouldnt be a problem if they had bigger maps you finish off a man in slayer and reload and another one is shooting you across the map or right in front of you spawning even a 3 second delay would make the game way better. swat is ruined people camp and wait for people to small of maps and instant respawn ruined alot of playlists and now when snipes comes out people will get very mad about spawning and dying its going to happen alot. all in all instant respawn was a terrible idea for this came especially when they spawn all over and never just in there base blue shouldnt be able to spawn in reds base when red people are there it is dumb and needs to be taken out for actuall good playlists such as SWAT and MLG (slayer pro) ruined the game.

Yeah its gotta go, I often get killed by the same enemy i just killed while my shields are still down. That being said I think you’re being a bit harsh on other people’s opinions.
