Dear 343,
I hate to admit it, but I really am horribly disappointed in multiplayer. The first week was fun, but only because it was new. The only good thing I have to say is it isn’t as much 343’s fault as much as it is the community’s. I know how this sounds but please for once hear me out.
Now first, the vehicles. Even when I jam the X button (this is for my personal controls) I can’t take over the vehicle. Now this more likely than not is just my connection, but It is annoying how someone can camp with a tank and be almost invincible.
Now spawning is another issue. I will many times spawn ten feet from where I died and end up dying again. It really is annoying being spawn trapped in slayer, spawning by the entire enemy team, or killing one guy and realize the rest of their team spawned on them and getting horribly teamed.
Now teaming is my biggest grudge for the game. Though many say it is apart of the game it truly does take away from it. When players do this, since ordinance has been added(power weapons), it diminishes the game’s fun COMPLETELY. There is no way for it to be individually competitive anymore. I always loved going into team slayer and trying to completely “lone wolf it” and win it for my team. I would play ffa slayer to fix this but the other half of players that don’t team camp in one corner of the map the entire game. This slows gameplay GREATLY.
I have some ideas to help this. Though you may not listen I hope you pick up some of these ideas. In team slayer variants you could give more points to players who killed someone by themselves or if they killed someone who had a teammate near or shooting you while you got the kill. Though this doesn’t “fix” camping and teaming I think it will at least make myself and others like me happier. Slayer isn’t a true teamwork objective type game so I think this could lessen the constant 2-3 people shooting me at one time. I almost always win a gun fight one on one so this is extremely frustrating to have happen literally EVERY game.
I would appreciate if you considered or replied to this because I’m getting more annoyed with the community than the makers. I am constantly being betrayed and getting stuck with teammates that refuse to play the objective in objective games also. So If you could help me with these issues please help 343 its only going to get worse.
On a brighter and less of a complaining attitude I loved the campaign and hope you guys will keep up the great stories
