My halo 4 complaints

  1. There are 5 slots for weapon choice in Infinity, so why does Slayer Pro not have an assault rife. Y’all can keep yer crummy DMRs, Battle Rifles, Light Rifles and Carbines, I just want my assault rifle. This only affects me now, since they added it in to normal team slayer, every one always votes for it and I cant use those other weapons fer -Yoink-.

  2. The hammer doesn’t work while on Mongooses. I’ve tried several times to bring the pain with meh gravity hammer whilst riding passenger on a mongoose, and you simply cannot “Shoot” the hammer (or punch).

Please explain the hammer; I am confused. As for the assault rifle, I agree. I wish 343i would create a slayer pro playlist that would have normal slayer pro, UNSC slayer pro, and Alien slayer pro. Basically UNSC slayer pro would have UNSC loadout weapons only and Alien slayer pro would have Forerunner and Covenant loadouts only.

  1. I think it’s because there’s this notion that automatic weapons don’t require skill, for whatever reason. AR should in pro, I think, either as a weapon loadout or a weapon spawn in game

  2. wouldn’t that be awful? using it would sort of just send the driver flying?

> 2. The hammer doesn’t work while on Mongooses. I’ve tried several times to bring the pain with meh gravity hammer whilst riding passenger on a mongoose, and you simply cannot “Shoot” the hammer (or punch).

Why yes it does. You have to be close enough to get a kill with it. It does not lunge or affect gravity while on the back.

It’s much better to get off the mongoose and whack your friend with it… get your buddy a splatter.

> 2. wouldn’t that be awful? using it would sort of just send the driver flying?

That would not be awful, in fact that would be awesome.

You’re just jealous that I am great with the hammer on horse… er mongoose back 'cause of my Genghis blood (Mongol) also ROAD TRIP!

I definitely agree. You should be able to hammer someone on the back of a mongoose. That would be amazing! Snicker doodle would love that.

Personally, I would like to see the Energy Pikes from Halo 2/Halo Wars so we could joust on our mongooses.

> I think it’s because there’s this notion that automatic weapons don’t require skill, for whatever reason.

Automatics in Halo:

Require positioning skill.

They do not require good aim because they are useless at ranges where good aim would even matter, due to poor accuracy.

They aren’t capable of getting headshots, so the aiming skillgap is made even wider.

They have bloom, but are too inaccurate for it to matter.

Automatics in General FPS’s:

Still require positioning skill.

Have high accuracy, which means more range but also more aim required.

Can headshot, which rewards good aim.

Have bloom, which punishes spamming them.

Precision Rifles in Halo

Require good positioning, to a lesser extent.

Require good aim.

Have an aiming skillgap.

There’s a reason why automatics are used in other competitive games but not in Halo. Because in Halo, the only role they fill is that of a crutch. The OP even confirms this when he says he wants them because he isn’t very good with the precision rifles.

Wow, elitist much? I’m quite good with precision weapons, but I prefer automatics, and can easy outscore a lot of precision weapon users with my AR.

And yes, Slayer and BTB are almost unplayable now because there’s constantly “Pro” options, sometimes all three, and they seem to always get voted for. Twice in an hour in BTB I got two DLC maps (which means the whole lobby actually had the DLC!) with Slayer, or a forge map with Slayer Pro. The latter won both times. That’s just sad.

Slayer Pro needs to be removed from Team Slayer and BTB right now. If people want their precision weapons so much, and I do tend to use a BR in BTB they can spawn with them anyway. And if you’re going to use a precision weapon anyway, Slayer Pro is just more boring Slayer. Everyone loses.

The only good thing about Pro is the lack of Ordnance in BTB, but they should just remove Pro and Ordnance from normal Slayer.

There are 5 slots for weapon choices in Infinity. Why does slayer Pro not have an assault rifle? You can keep your crummy DMRs, Battle Rifles, Light Rifles, and Carbines. I just want my Assault Rifle. This only effects me now, since they added it in to normal team slayer. Everyone always votes for it and I can’t use the other weapons for (explicit).

The hammer doesn’t work while on a Mongoose. I’ve tried several times to bring the pain with the gravity hammer whilst riding on the back of a mongoose, and I was unable to “shoot” or “punch” with the hammer.

Here you go, I made it legible.

It’s called Slayer Pro for a reason only noobs use automatic guns that require absolutely no skill to use keep that garbage out of Slayer pro.

Lets not flame the chap above me and just ignore him no need to start an argument.

Anyways I’m a chronic AR user but I haven’t played the new pro yet but if what your saying is true we shouldn’t just put the AR in because than people will want the Suppressor and Storm rifle.

Perhaps Pro automatics for another option.

“Automatics Pro” HAHAHAHA

Those two words don’t belong in the same sentence there’s absolutely no skill involved in holding down the trigger and spraying and praying.

If you think there is your delusional.

It’s not that they dont require skill. It’s that they require about as much skill as firing a Rocket Launcher hence the name “Slayer Pro”. If we wanted classic settings of which you are all asking for then we will wait for Legendary Slayer instead of complaining about a pre-existing style of play in that gametype.

> “Automatics Pro” HAHAHAHA

You can go two ways with this.

There’s gonna be more posts like this wanting automatics in the current pro game type. Which I imagine you’d hate.

Or you could have a separate playlist you wont have to play as much.

Either way there are automatic users out there that want this and sooner or later somethings gonna be done about it so if you want your precision weapon only game type you should support what I’m saying to keep automatics out of it.

P.S I didn’t intend any offence with that first paragraph. I only realized you were hating on automatics in front of a crowed of automatic users which wasn’t going to end well. Sorry.

When’s legendary slayer?
