Leave the reqs for warzone only. I am one of the people that find them as a joke. I totaly dislike them. They are a waste of time in the game while playing. Onece a team dominates it is almost imposible for the other team to come back. If the power weapons and vihicles are on count down, the loosing team can win a batle for them and turn the tides around. With the reqs the dominating team keeps on getting more and more power weapons and vehicles and it is a masacure! I am shure if reqs were in Arena i would have sold my game. I find them chieldish and stupid. Halo doesn’t feel right with them! Power weapon and vehivle sponning are ideal for Halo. I just don’t like that the power weapons get announced to everyone. Leave the timers only. Players that are skilled can also keep track of that. Who ever can’t means they sucks. That’s a aprt of the skill, we are not kid! I have the feeling some aspects of the game were made for kids to play the game easier.
For the game made for kids… I think any good game is balanced enough for everyone to enjoy. I have a few people in my spartan company that are young and a few that are purely social players. We play for fun and enjoyment and enjoy playing with all our members no matter their skill. Maybe halo needs to make a section of games called DIE HARD for people that want extreme gaming. I have noticed when I play warzone and my team is forced off the map the req boost from taking back one spot has changed the tide of the game and made it a better fight to the finish. Grab a banshee and fly to the furthest base and take it with ease… slows the pressure on one spawn and in game modes without req cards this is not so… i played an arena match last night our team kept killing each other on purpose and soon it was 5 on 12 the other team held all vehicles and power weapons and when new players joined there was little that was going to change the fact the other team had the whole map… like the tank 2 mongoose warthog spartan laser sniper rifle and 2 ghosts. The arena example when happening in warzone is less extreme because of the cards… though the other team does have higher req card access at least its a fight
