I don’t give a -Yoink- what any one of you has to say anymore. Because I’m sick of all the feel-good hippy bull -Yoink- on this forum.
343i made a -Yoinking!- TERRIBLE GAME.
Just admit it. It’s true, and saying it’s not is lying to yourself. And telling 343i they did a good, job, and patting them on the back isn’t going to make the game any better.
This game is broken at it’s core. The sheer existence of Armour Abilities ruins basically any chance this game had of being good. The Aim Assist/Raw Power of the DMR totally screws over the entire weapon sandbox. The “Flinch” as opposed to descoping underpowers the hell out of certain power weapons, and basically makes the DMR a god gun. And if you have the Boltshot in your pocket, you’re good to go.
The ability to choose your grenade off spawn is fine for Infantry Combat, sure. But Plasma Grenades completely ANNIHILATE vehicular combat. On all those BTB maps you are basically guaranteed to perform better on food than in even a Scorpion, Banshee, or Mantis. And that’s on their own. Add the Plasma Pistol to that and vehicles might as well just be removed from the game altogether.
The Explosives/Frag Grenade Combo, and the Grenadier perk are absolutely atrocious. The game was already 'nade spam heavy enough in Halo 3 when you spawned with 2 nades, and they had a tiny blast radius. Now you’re telling me the blast radius is massive and you spawn with 3? Seriously, WHEN DID THAT EVER SOUND LIKE A GOOD IDEA.
To add insult to injury, it is impossible to reliably know what weapons and tools the enemy team has at their disposal because they can change them in a pinch without you knowing until you come face to face. And personal/random ordinance does nothing more than add to the utter chaos and inconsistent mosh-pit aura of the game.
In short. THIS GAME SERIOUSLY BLOWS. And 343i needs to get their act together. PRAISING them on this piece of -Yoink- will accomplish nothing other than to give them the impression that they can be even crazier and more stupid with the next game. Or leave this terrible game the way it is, in which case most of us will just have to admit that Halo is a dead franchise.
Stop being nice/stubborn and just admit it already. Halo has been a slowly dwindling franchise for years now. And making garbage games like Halo 4 will only progress it towards it’s death.

Note: Account has played exactly 8 games of pre-Halo 4 Halo, in Halo 3 back in 2009. Not a single logged game in Halo 2, or Halo Reach.
What this means: Halo 4 is the ONLY HALO GAME this player has played for more than 8 games. Therefore the player is too inexperienced in what a REAL Halo game is to actually have an opinion.
I disagree. I like it more than Reach or 3. Not quite as much as 2, granted, but more than the recent iterations. I’ll admit I don’t care for the Boltshot, OPness of the DMR, or Plasma Pistol spawns, but I think all of the core mechanics are pretty solid. If they added Team Doubles, I’d be set for the most part.

Well considering just like the previous poster. You have played roughly 250 games in previous Halo titles. What’s that, like a week on Halo 3, and maybe a month on Reach?

Don’t be so ignorant. You should value someone’s opinion of the game where they’ve been with it since the start versus someone who hasn’t played more than 8 games.
I wonder If the first paragraph means this post is spam, I mean. If you’re going to write that, wouldn’t that be considered spamming? There isn’t healthy discussion going on…
I like halo 4 as well. It’s fun. I like my suppressor.
let put it this way my old account was milest42, a floppyhamburg , master chiief, tbk chief, r2r pesticiide the list keeps going on my friend i have played halo 3 and halo 2 im a 45 on 3 on milest42 and a 43 on a floppyhamburg just because im not on this account doesnt mean anything. also i have played over 300 games on halo 4 so where do you get you’re information from? and reach i was a commander grade 2 on milest42 i believe no wait milest42 and its tickle are the same account just changed the name OMGGGGG

Rant written, looks over decides not worth it to respond when clearly idiot doesn’t want to give 343i the extra year to flesh things out, that bungie had with all their games, and expects everything NOW, NOW, NOW! Calm down, and chill the -Yoink- out.
Honestly, from a competitive stand-point… I feel as though if this game took effort to aim, I’d have one quality piece of experience that I’d pour countless hours into on my hands.
Unfortunately, that’s far from what’s true. It’s so accessible, even your grandpa could hop-in and immediately achieve a killing spree; to me, that breeds very bland gameplay.

This isn’t about fleshing it out. The things that are wrong with this game aren’t things that can be fixed with small weapon damage adjustments (well, the DMR probably can, but the Boltshot, Plasma Pistol, Plasma Nades, Armour Abilities and the like? No, they aren’t going to get any better).
