Just so I can say I put my input in for questioning, I honestly do think this is the best Halo yet. SO much more potential than Halo 2 and just as balenced if not more. The campaign was gripping and the Multiplayer is addicting. But there are a few little urks that I feel need to be tweaked or nerfed just a little.
1. The Thruster pack is useful but limited, it would use just a little bit more of a buff. Adding a player trait zone with 10% speed for player movement helps it out to a reasonable standard so the thruster pack will actually give you that little extra push forward rather than a side step that takes away from your movement. Also kill the 3rd person on it. It’s not needed. To be honest it would be perfectly fine if you could shoot while thrusting I think.
2. Solace has way to much cover for it’s own good. Can be hard to maneuver around properly and battles tend to be aggravating because of it. If somehow cover can be taken out, that would help it a bit.
3. Aside from that annoying hole it the wall, Complex is the opposite of Solace, to little cover for its gametype. The map is too big for 4v4 and gameplay is slow and only takes place in one aread. Maybe add a teleporter to the dead areas to promote faster gameplay or just move it to BTB.
4. The DMR and BR need a finer line between them. The DMR can easily out preform a BR at close to medium range. The BR should have a higher auto aim for closer quaters and the DMR needs less. Not sure if that would fix it but it’s a start.
5. This was an issue too in Halo 3, Ragnarok needs something blocking line of site from the central ridge to each base. The map is pretty much who ever get top control first wins. There are plenty of matches where my team and I will just sit on the ridge and rain down hell. Its boring and unfair for the other team. With just a little cover blocking the bases, I think it would clear that issue up. Or even just a teleporter for easy flanking of the hill.
Those are just my little concerns. Nothing really too bad.
Great job with Halo 4 343, you’ve out done what Bungie never could.
