Reach Loadout System

While it would be a dream if 343i decided not to include loadouts in the next game im sad to say that it probably just wont happen. If thats the case then i’d like to suggest going back to reach’s loadout system. In reach, the only thing that was different in each loadout was the AA’s (except if you were playing invasion). AA’s are something ive grown accustomed to for H4 did them better than Reach did.

If halo 5 did this i’d say it’d make a lot of people happy. People would then be back on (some what) equal playing fields AND be able to have an individual gaming experience.

I agree with you 100% but actually starting loadout weapons could be different in each loadout in Reach along with armor abilities.

i know, i mostly ment in MM not in Customs. It was normally invasion that had the custom loadouts though

Wut?
Seriously though, do you want loadouts or do you want loadouts?

Reach loadout systems were fine because they were all a lot more similar than the customized personal loadouts we can all make in Halo 4. The Reach loadouts were created by Bungie or 343, so the studios could customize them themselves for fair play.

sorry for the confusion. Im saying that loadouts arn’t my preference, but it seems likely that 343i is sticking to them. It also generates a lot of hate when someone says “Loadouts suck”.

Im just stating that if i have to live with loadouts, i liked it better implemented in reach than in halo 4

I believe he meant, that if we have to have loadouts at all, he wants to use the reach loadout system instead of halo 4’s system.

bingo

You know my stance on loadouts. I would much prefer pre set loadouts then ones that players can make. Though none would be ideal.

no need for harshness pal

I think personal ordinance is worse than customizable loadouts…

Custom loadouts can work if theres no boltshot, active camo*, jet pack, plasma pistol** and stickies**.

personal ordinance just destroys any incentive to explore a map, because weapons just drop right infront of you, and map specific ordinances have MARKERS over them.

*Active camo should be a Powerup… Cmon, you’ve already got speed, damage, and overshield!

**Plasma pistol and stickies counter VEHICLES which are map based. This means that if you’re in a vehicle you don’t know if theres any, or how many people have plasma pistol and stickies, and you have no way of avoiding them, and use your skills to get kills, it’s random. Howeever, Everyone knows if theres a mantis on a map, and if they should use stickies or not. Plasma pistol and stickies should just be ON MAP.

i like the halo reach loadout system. maybe they can put that in a playlist or something

I preferred Reach’s loadout system as well. Most of the time it was the the same the older Halo games, asides from AAs. (Everyone has the same weapons at start.)

Thanks for all the positive responses everyone :smiley:

As long as I can choose which primary weapon I spawn with… that would be great.
