People keep saying “oh you cant comment on how bad a feature is in Halo 4 if you havent played it”. Well some of the best Halo players in the world have played Halo 4. Maybe not the exact complete game but they have tested things that will be in the complete game even if only slightly changed. If you cant be -Yoinked!- to read the whole thing then skip to the bottom where i will post a link to a video of MLG pros, people who know the ins and outs of the game who have a more valid opinion of anyone on these forums, a video where they discuss this vile plague that is Prometheon Vision in-which i quote “prometheon vision will completely change the game”. Replace the word “DOT” with a “.”.
I have read about a few new changes today like killcams and not being able to drop the flag in CTF and having a side arm out whilst carrying the flag but instead of making a thread about my opinions of these changes, i recently came across a video which i wish to share with you all.
Now the problem with these forums is Reach players who have no experience of past games come on the forums and disagree with every complaint about Halo 4 without ACTUALLY understanding how the changes affect the gameplay. They keep saying oh sprint is good because we can sprint in real life… no… that is no valid argument to why sprint is a positive feature in the Halo series.
Instead of being Halo, loads of features are being copied from other games to make it relevant to the apparent new fan base Halo seems to be getting. Hence making it more like other games and less like Halo. Heres an idea. Take features like Armor Abilities away from the game. Whats wrong with releasing a game that isnt jam packed with loads of annoying little new features when i could have an incredibly simple but amazing game like the first 3 Halos.
I await the Reach fanboys comments where they will disagree with a pathetic attempt at an explanation of why they disagree EG. I think sprint is cool because i can get to the action quicker. What most people seem to forget is to analyse this, did people need to get into combat quicker, why not increase the default movement speed then ect ect.

Stopped reading right there. Saying that someones opinion can be more valid than anothers is stupid and absurd.
Promethean vision is useless. When I used it it showed hardly any of the players on the map, gave me a crappy aim from the visuals from the AA and it ran out really quickly. I’d rather stick to the radar, it’s much more useful and gives me eyes on the back of my head. If Pro Vision is OP, so is the radar.
> Odd thing is, as more AAs have been showcased and more videos of gameplay have been shown, I’ve seen Promethean Vision used less than the early vids.
I don’t think it was in many of those builds, I remember someone telling me.

The amount of wrong in this post hurts my very being. firstly who gives two -Yoink- what MLG says? just because they are proffesional means there good? There are plenty of avid gamers out there unheard of to the public. But i guess MLG is god and the rest of us are just reach fanboys.
I have played all halos since CE came out. so stick that in your juice box and suck it. PV has been changed drastically to be a much more fair version. MLG bravo did a video on the new changes and said it seemed much more balanced.

Your “opinion” is a few months outdated. Promethean vision has been greatly nerfed.
Yes, PV will change Halo’s gameplay. Just like how the changes to Sprint will. Just like how the new weapons will. Just like how the changes to CTF will. Just like how the Custom Loadouts will. Just like how Ordinance Drop will.
PV has a short duration and a long cooldown, and it’s effective range is about the same as your motion tracker. You won’t be able to spot someone outside your motion tracker’s range. And correct me if I’m wrong, but I think PV also sends out a ripple on nearby player’s tracker so they know if when someone is using it.
