So I have to use a glitch to make the game function so it doesn’t piss me off? What about the broken maps, overpowered weapons, and broken gameplay mechanics? How do I get around that?

Way too many problems with Halo 4. This shouldn’t be called a finished product.

I’m disapointed about all of the decisions that were made in this game. Forge sucks, multiplayer has -Yoink- wrong with it, and campaign/spartan ops is just plain boring.

7

I just play the game. I don’t worry about all these technical details that seem to upset everyone here so much. You guys need to learn to relax a little.

this happens to me one of every 10 games, and then I dont cry about if afterwards.

A lot of people including me feel the same way :frowning:

My opinions:

Forge - A few things have been improved but it has become worse too now. For example, way too many kill-areas on small Forge maps that are like not even a third of Forge World’s size.

Multiplayer - Multiplayer is unbalanced. Loadouts take away too much from the game. Most people exclusively use/start off with the DMR and Boltshot because the majority uses it and they are super powerful. Plasma pistols, plasma grenades, DMR’s (all that can be selected in a loadout) just completely destroy the weak vehicles. Halo used to be so simple, but now with the addition of armor abilities and perks, it’s way too complicated and class-based.

Campaign - I liked the campaign, but it was way too unoriginal. It was like Halo mashed with Star Wars and Prometheus and ideas from other franchises that don’t belong in Halo.

Spartan Ops - Extremely repetitive, HORRIBLE lag on matchmaking, recycled audio, no punishment for dying (you even start off with full ammo after you die lol). All you do is kill enemies and occasionally press buttons. This is kind of like Halo: Reach Firefight; boring, repetitive, lots of enemies, laggy, and only exists to fill in a part of the game and XP farm.

HI FIVES PSI!!!

Me to, I don’t get it… I just play… If I lose, people quit, I JiP, someone gets the mantis… oh well, guess what, it’s not the end of the world, I just play another game.

NO GAME IS 100% PERFECT… just deal with it, report a problem, let them look into it and deal with it, hopefully they’ll fix some of the issues that a lot of people have, but they’re not going to fix them all, so calling the game garbage, and saying some of the things you guys are saying towards 343i is just silly.

They’re learning… again, deal with it, they are… they can’t take it back… if they could, I’m sure they would, but they can’t, so they have to work with what they made. If you don’t like it, don’t play it, and move on to another game.

Well no duuhh. Nothing is ever perfect. Halo 3 was pretty close to perfection though. Even Reach had problems but not any technical problems. The only problems in Reach were bloom and armour lock. Bloom should have never been in the game, well not in the way it was implemented, and I didn’t have any major problem with armour lock, but it did slow down the game. Sure there was no 1-50 but there was still the arena, there’s nothing in Halo 4 even slightly like the arena. And at least Reach had maps without massive camping spots (there was some but not as bad as Halo 4). The community was pissed from Reach, but now everyone is pissed from Halo 4. I remember the Reach forums like it was yesterday, for every hater there was someone defending, now the haters out number the defenders 3 to 1. I legit have never seen ANY thread on the Halo 4 forums that was possitive. And the ones that were possitive got shot down quickly/had poor arguments.

They are learning, but my gosh I hope they learnt alot from this. They mad mistakes so obvious I’m surprised they even made it into the game.

13

fyi, the DMR bloom is meaningless unless you’re cross-mapping…

14

> fyi, the DMR bloom is meaningless unless you’re cross-mapping…

That’s partially true. But it was pointless, and Sage should have never been employed at Bungie, he stopped it from being perfect.

15

I think you’re right, just based on what he said.

16

I just got put into a game onto a team losing 350-70
Instantly quit
Thanks JIP

OP forgot to mention:

> playing SWAT with BR
> player quits, cuts to black screen
> game resumes, get killed
> respawn with DMR

And when you do remember to manually select your loadout after getting killed the BR is highlighted.

So what idiot at 343 thought it was a good idea to respawn with a different loadout every time someone quits?

That’s called lag, and that’s in all games. And you might want to check your connection if that’s happening every time.

19

yep, happened in Reach too… when someone lagged out and went to the blue screen and then you came back and you couldn’t use your Ability, or it was reset to the top one… how quickly people forget.

I don’t even know what to say to you, you know things aren’t perfect… but you still whine… you say stuff like… reach had problems, but nothing technical… then you list a bunch of technical problems, lol… then you say, there’s never a positive post… and then say, when there are positive posts… So… there are postitive posts… right?? It doesn’t matter if someone jumps down the positive person, it’s still positive.

Just stop complaining already… sheesh.
