My opinion is that Halo shouldn’t have perks or load-outs, and go back to the classic competitive nature where the only benefits could be fought for on the map. A level playing field creates a good Halo, just look at the history of Halo… Halo 2 and 3 are revered as the best multiplayer games, not reach, please 343i learn from Bungie’s mistake.
They’re going for sales and addiction. Perks create addiction and makes players want to stick around longer so they can get the next cool thing. Break down CoD and that’s all you see.

Only having good gameplay in customs is not the way to go.
Sure, i can 1v1 my friend without AA’s or bloom all day in customs, but i can’t play that gametype anywhere in Reach. (I need a team for MLG and my friend doesn’t have the anniversary maps) I can’t play Reach at its best settings in matchmaking. That’s fundamentally wrong.

Soo… because you dont have good enough friends to play MLG, and your friend cant afford the anniversary maps, Reach is flawed?

Exactly my point!
While we’re complaining about perks, let’s complain about how the new weapons and vehicles in the game are horrible! I despise the new Assault Rifle! And what the hell 343i, why did you make that weapon that sounds cool the way you did instead of a super BR rifle?!
The perk systems I know are from COD and Battlefield 3. Both unbalance the game horribly, it’s really hard to do good levelling system with perk unlocks, and keep it balanced.
Halo 4 doesn’t need it, I just want more cosmetic armour customisation (even in Red vs Blue competitive matches, I should be able to stand out)

What you just stated above will probably happen when the next bit of information comes out.
Let me ask you something. Can you predict the future?
I’m all for perks. I am having lots of fun in the game LoL and I am excited for the armor abilities and possible loadouts for Halo 4 making the game a LoL-like FPS experience.
