People you are getting really annoying

Honest. Majority on here are getting very annoying.

The bulletin states this (for those that care to read closely and not just fly off the handle on a consistent basis):

While this update tackles a significant amount of bugs, glitches and issues we’re happy to soon call resolved, there’s more balancing to be done and more matters of contention to address, and we are actively working with the Halo 4 game team to investigate the feasibility of additional fixes.

Hello? They are working on the game still.

Granted it may not be as fast as some would like it to be. Granted this game is not Halo 2.5 or Halo 3.5 like soooo many people wanted it to be.

But face the facts people. Bungie is gone. 343i is here now.

I enjoy Halo 4 a lot. Yes there is stuff that needs improvement still. Lag being one. And the way these forums are moderated is another. The people that have been here a long time like me will understand completely with what I am saying about the moderation of these forums.

And the way I stated that. It is all within the conduct and rules of the forums. Ban me if you like. That would only further prove my point here.

Not having a place to honestly discuss Halo and have discussions in general and the pure and simple moderation of the forums here is what has killed this game and dropped the population far more than any boltshot or DMR issues.

Hopefully the “social” side of 343i will wake up and see this and make the necessary actions and removal of certain people here. We all know who they are.

Once again . . . this was all said in the conduct and rules of the forum. Banning me, or locking the thread, or deleting this thread only proves the point further.

343i I can do a much job here than how things are being handled. Not believe me? PM me and lets talk. Been a Halo fan since Day 1 of the first Xbox and on Live for over 10 years. Not many have those credentials or dedication to not only Halo but Xbox.

Once again . . . the PM is there. As will I be once I read the PM.

I stand by my statement: I will make a better and much needed difference.

If more players provided constructive criticism then we might actually get somewhere.

I’m just happy that we get some smaller maps, that we have a proper FFA playlist, that the BS Bolt Shot is getting a Nerf and that FF for vehicles has been disabled.

If they nerf the DMR slightly, Buff the Carbine slightly, added some more ranks as well as Armor and make the CSR visible on the players ervice record, then Halo 4 would be bloody fantastic.

I actually can’t wait until Monday. When I get back from college in the morning, I will turn on my Xbox for the first time in a while, load up Halo 4 and see what the majestic maps have too offer.

TL;DR

They had plenty of time for more than a boltshot fix and we deserved more. Period.

They did, did they? How do you fix it then? Since you seem to imply you are quite the expert at it, I’d like an explanation on how, mechanics, coding, everything please.

I understand what you are saying. I agree with you 100%.

But lets keep this thread professional and not feed the trolls.

I’m complaining for all of the amazing people who wish for playable Grunts.This is not annoying because playable Grunts is a very important issue to my self and a select few who are able to notice this overly important and non-existent issue.The Grunt lovers like myself can only hope that 343 notices our faint cry’s in the pit of complaints.Even though the playable Grunts issue is the biggest and most important issue ever in the history of Halo.

OK, I do have to admit. Playable Grunts in the right game type would be pretty epic.

Ah finally… Someone who isn’t all whine. You my friend get a +10.

You’re right though. What happened to the great community this game use to have?

Honestly, I think a lot of the whiners are more, bungie fans then Halo fans. That they just can’t accept the fact that Bungie isn’t making Halo, so in their minds, every little issue the game does have, makes it -Yoink-.

If this game was -Yoink-, why would it place 7th on the 10 best selling (So far) of 2013? And mind you 7th normally doesn’t sound good… But considering that Halo 4 is the ONLY Single Plat game on this list, and that almost every single game on that list has 3+ platforms it runs on (DmC being the only exection seeing as it is only on 2 platforms, and it only placed 1 above Halo 4)

This game is bloody fantastic!

Yes there are things that need to be fixed. Well guess what? They’re workin on it!

They’re not going to change everything that some in the community doesn’t like.

I like the 1sk Boltshot. It’s not as ‘noob friendly’ as people think it is. Those that say it is- Have you actually tried to get a 1sk with it on a moving target? It’s not that easy! Especially now that it’s been nerfed.

Anyways, I’m through ranting. Sorry for fouling up your thread a bit friend.

Keep up the good additude. Needs to be more people like you on this site, who think, and work out what they have to say before they talk.

I’m glad that another believes in the Grunt cause, it is currently small but soon…soon will have what we have for so long desired, which is playable grunts.

All hail the Grunt Overlord! All hail the Grunt Overlord! All hail the Grunt Overlord!

Personally, I like the emp and ff for vehicles, people who were noobs with the warthogs would run away with them and today it would have been usefull, than I was disappointed, everything else, I agree 100%.

Problem was is that it was used far more for trolling purposes than what you described.EMP FF was overly abused and got me killed countless times in BTB.It had to be fixed, you can blame the people who abused the feature.

Let me shed some light on your thread and the forum.

Some like weapon balance, addressing issues, bettering the game, proposing fixes… helping the community grow instead of shrink. Some of these people are otherwise known as whiners to some but why should they be content with mediocrity? This game is certainly mediocre or it would have a larger population. Granted there are a select few who want to tailor the game to themselves, but the majority of gripes on here are valid. If you are so content with the game why aren’t you playing it instead of surfing the forums which are generally meant for constructive criticism, rather than kissing butt?

I just have to wonder why something like the DMR, a weapon that has been criticized just as long as the Boltshot, is set aside. I’d try to get the really big stuff out of the way first.

This community doesn’t deserve more if anything less. All you’ll do is complain about everything on every Halo game. Deserve more? why do you deserve more?

To the post above mine, I can help answer tha question. The DMR was set aside because it plays how 343 wants it to.

It plays how I want it to.

Well, I guess that is a bitter disappointment. A slight nerf probably wouldn’t hurt. Yet if they seriously believed it was fine, I’d like to hear it from them.

First off: Welcome to waypoint!

A lot of people are upset because they’ve invested so much time (some people 10+ years!) and money (between all the legendary editions, novels, map packs, action figures, etc…) into a franchise they love. Now a new company is making a bunch of changes that’s taking the franchise in a new direction. It shouldn’t be too difficult to understand why such a passionate fanbase could become upset. If you’re one of the fortunate ones that likes the game then I have no idea why you’d take that for granted and read a bunch of threads created for those who dislike the game.
To each his own I guess, but if it were me I’d just play the game and be happy.

I have been happy with the last two months of progress- Main thing being communication from 343i.

My only remaining issue is Halo 4 matchmakings’ inability to provide party-size support in gametypes beyond Slayer for any sized party. This accessibility seriously boosted the replay factor for classic Halo matchmaking. It simply let us operate however we wanted, with however many bro’s we had online. Such a simple formula to deliver good times with.

Classic Halo party size support - 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8 players in party, Slayer + Obj mix

Halo 4 current party size support after removal of Crimson DLC - 2, 4, 5 Slayer + Obj mix

-No support for 3-man squads (Weird), only 8v8 is Slayer (Weirder still)

For me, I’ll take any new gametypes or tweaks. My clan really wants to love the game. But the limiting party size thing is just way too creepy and hard to deal with. Heck, I’ll swallow the loss of 3v3v3v3 Multi-Team if we could just get 8v8 Objective back. 8v8 being only Slayer limits the Halo experience for the Objective gametype players who come from years of Halo service. Having to boot or rotate team members is difficult and annoying.

Such a simple thing to fix, and I really hope they sort it out!

Let’s get Halo back to supporting whatever sized party players have online- however they have to go about doing that is fine by me. We just can’t stand the lack of freedom that these limited party numbers present us with. Pretty sure that’s constructive criticism right there.

> But face the facts people. Bungie is gone. 343i is here now.

Yeah that’s why people are upset. 343i sucks. Honestly, I don;t think ANY studio would have screwed up Halo 4 this bad.

OBJECTION YOUR HONOUR! Witness is trolling the jury
