There’s probably some more but this is what I could think of at the moment.
-
Bring back first flight radar! So many campers and people hiding in corners with the grav hammer. At the very least walking should not show< I’m okay with other stuff like jumping and clambering showing on radar. - Nades felt too strong in this version (first flight felt too weak) need to find a better balance - Shooting weapons feels great(audio is great when dishing it out, but being on the receiving end its unclear many times which gun I’m being shot with) - I really like the aesthetic of the UI but man is it terrible to navigate and unintuitive
-
In menus, so much scrolling and clicking to get to anything of relevance. News window needs to be moved and the armor hall needs a thorough overhaul. Move the squares for each type of customization around the spartan model similar to how RPG character/inventory screens are. Minimize scrolling and clickthroughs - In game, still can’t see both grenade types. all info is at the bottom. spread it out and bring back the visual ammo counter from previous games. - As fun as BXB combo is, it needs to be removed. - Current BP progression system is terrible. We need per match XP, kills/assists/captures/secure xp per match - Mic default should not be open mic - Need muting option on scoreboard - Drop wall feels useless. like it only stops one bullet (just an idea: make it block all kinetic weapons, requiring plasma to break it) - descoping br and commando on hit is annoying(made it so it was better to just fire without scoping) - send feedback surveys to everyone that participated - bring back headshot multiplier!(whats the point of highlighting where I am damaging an enemy on their shields if it doesn’t matter)Infinite team needs to go spend some time with the MCC team(it took them 3 years but they finally got it right) and take a few pages out of their book. They’ve got the the aiming down right, just go to their repo and clone down their code(/sarcasm). I know there is more to it than that but seriously, they’ve got the building blocks there for most things aiming, post game ui, etc.
Honestly, I feel the first flight was way better. Like if all 343i did was iron out the bugs after the first flight and shipped it, I would have happily paid for just those 3 maps. After this flight I’m not so sure.
