My overview of halo 4

Games Other Halo
1

So I bought Halo 4 the night of release and I expected great things.

While it is the only game I really do play, since Halo is the only series I ever did play since halo 1, I don’t like SOME things 343 is doing.

PLAYLISTS:

  1. I don’t like waiting for the best parts that COULD be in Halo 4, like certain playlists such as team doubles, snipers…ect…

Not only do we get those, but they are rotated.

I don’t understand why those game types need to be rotated.

They are basic standard playlists that have always been a part of the Halo series.

Why fix what isn’t broken?

I just get bored of stupid things like the infinity challenge all the time.

SPECIALIZATIONS

  1. What was the point of not releasing all the specializations on day 1?
    It literally just looks like an evil scheme to get people to buy the same game for 45 dollars more for stupid levels.

Not only do you need to wait for these, but these specializations are useless.

I don’t even use any of their abilities.

They are as pointless as the SR ranking.

What also makes the SR ranking pointless, is spartan ops, which totally makes leveling it a breeze.

WEAPONS

  1. People complain about the difference of the DMR and Battle rifle,
    Yet the Battle rife isn’t such a bad weapon.

I use DMR and I still lose battles against the Battle rifle.

I don’t remember the BR being a long range weapon either in the previous games.

And if you are in a big map, don’t run out into the open like you are invincible, maybe that will settle your DMR crying.

Each weapon has their map to be stronger or weaker on.

I don’t actually see a problem with the weapons anymore.

SPARTAN OPS/CAMPAIGN.

Honestly I’m more of a Spartan OPS fan, rather than Campaign.
I find myself doing more interesting things with the Spartan ops, since its not really all about Chief all the time.

Although I am hoping the new season of OPS is more frantic and destructive than the previous one.

The campaign just didn’t appeal me as it used to.

INFINITY CHALLENGE:

If we have more competitions like this, to where you need to be on unemployment to win a contest, then I have no faith in these things anymore.

You can’t really have a competition to where people have to play a lot to succeed in it.

It’s a turn off to most people who don’t have the time to do it.

It would be more fair to do team brackets or something or just have people contend for a play off against other teams. (like post seasons in hockey and such)

MAPS
5.

The range of maps suck!
I keep finding myself play the same 2 or 3 maps every time!
Not only are there not enough maps to keep you interested, but maps like complex are terrible.

I am pretty happy about the forge map addition soon though, maybe this can help me and certain players be more entertained.

Honest, good points, clean, mature, love it

I don’t like listening to people trash talk Halo 4 while they are playing on my team in a game. It’s the most annoying thing ever. I don’t get why they are on it in the first place either.

Give me a break.

I aggreed with what you said about the BR and DMR, I find they both are useful depending on what map your on, i just need to finsh the commendatiosn for them and give the LR and CC some love

5

Sadly I find myself having a hard time trying to master weapons like the Rail gun -__-

Wish I knew an easy spawn map for it

6

Iv heard Dominion was great for ranking up weapons

  1. they change things up to keep it fresh or somethin like that, I don’t agree with it but give them a break they’re trying new stuff

  2. Lol no sh*t you just got that? every company do this xbox live do this xD. I don’t mind SR but I wish it was better.

  3. completely agree

  4. I like both

  5. don’t care, means nothing to me, the only good prize is the truck

  6. I like the maps but in objective gametypes they can be unbalanced

8

SR rank really puts me to sleep though. It doesn’t affect me as a player that much. Kinda miss the thrill to number ranks though, it made each game worth winning kinda.

I agree with most of your points OP, but not this one. Obviously running out into the open thinking you’re indestructible in any Halo game was a noobish thing to do, but the DMS has taken it to a whole new level.

You should be able to move more freely around the map than is currently possible. BTB has been reduced to a Mexican standoff where each team crouches behind rocks etc about 150m apart trying to pick each other off with each player to scared to poke their head out for more than half a second.

Now I don’t know about you, but I prefer some variety in my gameplay. Not even the Vehicles can stop this monotony as they are destroyed by plasma pistols, stickies and the plethora of power weapons almost immediately.

lmao that Mexican stand off reference was really funny. I had to imagine everyone playing a game with Sombreros on.
