Pleased With the Jet Pack Change

If you watch this you will see the jet pack pretty clearly.

It seems it does nothing more than give the player a quick, very short, height advantage.

So, what do you think? Pleased? Displeased?

It’s much, much better than Reach. I still don’t know if it’ll work though.

The way it should’ve been done in Reach. Allow you to access a height advantage quickly, and nothing more. No flying around or any of that.

How Jet Pack works in Halo 4:
Flies slow
3 seconds of usage
3 seconds to recharge
8 seconds to fully recharge

Now let’s replace every soft kill with a hard kill barrier.

Ehhhh just take it out

I would be more pleased it if were removed entirely from matchmaking and left in campaign/spartan OPs.

Pleased, even though I personally did not find any huge issue with the JP in reach.

Eh, a nerf from Reach’s Jetpack is better than nothing. But I’d feel a lot more comfortable with it out of the main matchmaking.

Jetpack is nerfed and i am pleased. I still don’t feel like it belongs in Halo but then again, change and variety is the order of the week eh?

I won’t be using it though. I prefer air dashing and moving around like a Mecha with the Thruster Pack. Air Dash <3 Reminds of me Blazblue/Guilty Gear.

Why does the Jet Pack symbol look like an Elite Minor helmet?

Woah, are you me? I was just thinking about doing a Hakumen build/loadout with either Thruster pack or Hardlight shield! (and a white EVA helmet visor)

What? You couldn’t see that in the video.

Oh, I thought both players at that one point had Jet Pack, lol, guess its just been that long since I’ve seen a spartan’s jump.

What is the AA the player is using that has an Elite Minor’s helmet as its icon?

I’m pretty sure its auto sentry, even though it doesn’t look like an elite’s helmet to me

Ah, finally another Blazblue player! Hakumen ftw :stuck_out_tongue:

I’m the guy that said I’d cancel my preorder if it wasn’t at least nerfed.

It was nerfed.

I’m not necessarily thrilled about it, but I’m happy they are at least trying.

Well we still don’t know if he could float around, maybe the player decided to just jump and come straight down.

Honestly, I would prefer them to just remove it

its useless now. they should have kept it like the reach version but not be in matchmaking

> Now let’s replace every soft kill with a hard kill barrier.

Nope, invisible walls, we don’t want any stupid deaths because a jetpacker didn’t know he wasn’t supposed to be somewhere. In a perfect world we’d get soft kill with Guardians.

It is still useful for gaining a short hight advantage and passing between a couple floors, but other than that, it may still behave the same once you give it infinite power in custom games.
