After seeing the sprint in the gameplay, I became very worried like most of the other Halo fans. 343i, here me out, please reconsider Armor Abilities / Perks / Loadouts. They’re unnecessary and they are NOT Halo!!
Pray tell, what is Halo?
You guys need to learn to flow with the times. I completely understand if 343 showed a bunch of new armor abilities why you would get angry. But sprint? Its kinda an industry standard by now.
> Pray tell, what is Halo?
everyone starting off as equals and getting the upperhand using to teamwork for map control and power weapon control. that, is halo.
OT: only if the perks were extremely minor. like the capacity to hold (not start off with) extra grenades, or maybe sprint for an extra 5 seconds or something.
i really hope sprint doesn’t make it into the final game. nothing was more frustrating then someone running around with a sword in reach or someone running away from my sniper or DMR kill. its not needed in halo. just increase the movement speed to offset the need for sprint

Everybody spawns with the same weapons, grenades, and speed. No load outs, perks, customizable classes, or random spawns for power weapons. The last one is just stupid in my opinion. Then no beta to try it out. I’ll wait a week to give the servers time to come online then I’ll rent it beat campaign then try multiplayer. If multiplayer is stupid im not buying.

/facepalm
Sprint and loadouts are only standard in military FPS with short kill times, you barely ever see a Sci-FI Sandbox FPS with longer kill times have sprint/loadouts and Halo never had sprint/loadouts over the course of the Halo trilogy and it worked better.
They need to take serious precautions that im sure they are taking while implementing such unique never before things in halo.

I agree with others in here, sprint honestly should have been in Halo from the start.
Some Armor Abilities like Camo and Armor Lock though…tsk tsk.

That’s what slayer pro/BR slayer is for, just play that dude. We’re all happy 
343knows what there doing.
I’ll still play the game if it’s just sprint, other then that it will just get annoying because it will just be a bunch of -Yoinks!- who spawn with rockets and fuel rod every time. I am disappointed 343, most disappointed. Oh, and bring back the smg please.
If Halo doesn’t evolve, then gamers will eventually grow tired of it. Imagine if 343 made some of these features work in Halo? It would be a much more interesting game then after 10 years of roughly the same thing.
You can’t expect these things to work the same way in Halo 4 as they do in their respective games.
Another thing to remember is that these things might not be in every playlist. Halo will always have a classic playlist the same way CoD always has Barebones. Every single playlist doesn’t need to cater to the same style. Halo has always been about choice and I’m sure 343 will provide playlists for many styles. 343 still treats Reach as Bungie’s game which is why we haven’t seen too many alterations to it’s multiplayer setup. Halo 4 will fully be 343’s game and we will see them have a much greater hand in making it the best game possible.
I’m not ready to cancel my pre-order after 1 ViDoc like some of you.
You guys act if there isnt gonna be any other gametypes on Halo 4 that wont have all these things hence classic slayer…dang ignorant people these days…and they probably will change the scope on the BR anyway and the Spartan IV’s look like this because it is a WORK IN PROGRESS. So i guess halo fans these days cant read. Come on u guys lets not act like CODFANBOYS and start supporting 343.

you just described a game. any game for that matter. but whats this about random power weapon spawns? that isnt something that isnt “halo” its something to me that shouldnt be in any fps ever
Sprint’s fine as long as the others are gone. I like the idea of having perks that don’t change the game-play too much(extra clips, a booster-pack [downsized version of a jetpack that would just increase jump height to reach difficult obstacles] etc.). Like I have said before, loudouts should only be in the game for similar weapons. For example, when you have a loudout with plasmas/NR and another with frags/DMR.
