With AR Starts. Who agrees ?
Keep the Br’s but remove Deluxe and make a new game-mode with AR Starts, Radar that also shows Enemy’s. Sprint Disabled and AA’s On Map ?
The radar is fairly pointless with just teammates, 343 should either remove it completely or make it completely functional.
And I would check out some AR starts.
AR Starts sucks. Granted, it’s better than playing with AAs and stickies, but BR starts have always been better.

It’s there because it shows your teammates X’s when they die. It would be a lot better if they would have just kept it the way it was in previous Halos.
Having the radar with teammates only tricks me into thinking I’m safe when I’m not.
If you wanna play play with AR’s then don’t play Team Throw down because it’s a competitive playlist for H4 like Team Hardcore was to H2.
Deluxe is not that great in my opinion, its the only disappointing part of the playlist.
I find deluxe to be terrible. AR starts would be meh but better than deluxe. Other than that Throwdown is exactly what I hoped Halo 4 to be. I’d love to see a big team version with full radar enabled but for the 4v4 I like how the radar is. It just takes a little getting use to.
The Assault Rifle is a pure spray & pray weapon, the bloom is literally impossible to control from outside its intended distance.
I’d be all for Assault Rifle pickups on maps in the BR settings, but a pure Assault Rifle gametype would be awful.

This would have SO MANY lobby quitters. Anytime ARs would be the left most option, no one would vote, if it showed 4 votes, the other 4 would leave.
Motion Tracker should have NEVER BEEN INTRODUCED INTO HALO!

This is a shooter, you should NEVER feel safe, your reasoning is the very logic to why it should be removed. It gives everyone a “I don’t watch my surroundings, I let my radar do that for me:)” You become the tunnel vision player when you remove radar, learn to play without it and you’ll get drastically better.
I’d take ANY unbalanced setting with precision weapons over ARs start and Radar on… this playlist is supposed to be competitive why are you even asking for this?
Competitive =/= classic
If you want ‘classic’ settings than team throwdown is not for you. You have to campaign for a classic playlist, leave the competitive playlist alone.
I will say Deluxe settings are an awful alternative and should be replaced with GoldPro or Orange settings.
AR starts only if pistol is secondary…
Yea… uh, let’s NOT do AR starts, please.

AR starts were competitive MLG settings before lol just saying
I don’t mind AR starts, BR starts, even DMR starts, give us some variety. My favorite would be SMG starts but hell, smg isnt even in the game lol
I hate both. Nobody votes for Deluxe, so removing it would give us more options to vote for. I would rather Deluxe settings be the replacement for the other playlists, but there are even better settings that could be used.
Replace deluxe with Classic!

It serves two purposes.
-
It displays an X over dead teammates bodies if they’re in range, which is necessary because 343 removed the waypoint that showed up on the map.
-
It shows where your teammates are around you, so if you hear footsteps and your radar is empty, you know they aren’t friendly.
The first is far more important than the second, and if 343 hadn’t insisted on fixing what wasn’t broken we wouldn’t have this problem in the first place.
To resolve the endless AR vs BR debate, I vote for 343i to add a weapon that is somewhere in between.
umad?
> AR starts only if pistol is secondary…
I like this idea. ^
Of course it’s always going to need testing. I had a game on a non-scaled up version of Lockout once with AR spawns. It didn’t work, campers everywhere lol.
Putting AR starts into TTD would be the absolute worst decision they could ever make. That being said, I wouldn’t mind seeing the Deluxe settings replaced with GoldPRO, Doubles Pro or Orange settings. All of them are better than Deluxe and, imo, better than v2.
> Replace deluxe with Classic!
And what does “Classic” mean to you?
