There are no Perks in Halo. Stop calling Tactical Packages, Support Upgrades, and Armor Abilities perks.

LMAO herp a derp to everyone who keeps calling them Perks. Ufail/

They’re perks. They just aren’t game breaking like CoD’s are.

^ There is no stopping power in Halo 4.

But…

They are.

Tactical packages and support upgrades are perks, the same way the sit-rec (or whatever) is a killcam and personal ordnance drops are care packages/scorestreaks.

Changing the name doesn’t change the fact that they are the same thing in practically every respect.

Slight of hand. Dexterity.

They act like Perks, millions of people play CoD so they call 'em what they remind them of.

They pretty much are. Just with a different name slapped on them.

Deal with it.

Perks.

Perks are something that enhance the way your character performs. All of the Tactical/Support Packages do that.

Mobility = Marathon/Extreme Conditioning
Ammo = Bandolier
Firepower = Overkill
Sensor kind of = Awareness in Black Ops 2, but for the sensor rather than sound. Either way enhances your ability to predict oncoming enemies.
Resupply = Scavenger
Requisition = Engineer in Black Ops 2.
Stability = Toughness
Ordnance Priority = Hardline
Explosives = Danger Close

Rename them and call them what you want, its the same thing.

Armour abilities aren’t perks.
But tactical and support packages are.
Firepower = overkill

mobility = marathon

resupply = scavenger (even though resupply should be a default ability like in every other Halo game…)

ETC…
These aren’t even comparisons, those perks literally do the EXACT same as their CoD equivalents. You’d have to be blind to deny that. They’re perks. Same way specialisations in Battlefield are perks. Instead of denying Halo took something from CoD, admit it.

Whatever you call them, they suck anyway. Better off without them. AAs can stay though (get rid of sprint/PV).

Hrmm. Let’s compare, shall we? I am going to use MW3 as a basis of comparison as Black Ops 2 was not yet out when H4 was released.

Call of Duty MW3 on the left, Halo 4 on the right.

Sleight of Hand > Dexterity (Support Upgrade)
Extreme Conditioning > Mobility (Tactical Package)
Scavenger > Resupply (Tactical Package)
Blast Shield > Explosives (Support Upgrade)
Hardline > Ordinance Priority (Support Upgrade)
Overkill > Firepower (Tactical Package)
Marksman > Sensor (Support Upgrade)
Steady Aim > Stability (Support Upgrade)

Do I really have to keep going? They copied perks, almost to the letter in some regards. Don’t want them called that? Tough. That’s what they are.

Edit: Colbert Shakefist You beat me to it Urban!

You people can make all the comparisons you want. At the end of the day they are what they are, but the one thing they are not …are PERKS.

You’re in denial. I’m guessing Halo doesn’t have killcams either. Also, if we call the classes ‘‘spawn sets’’ does that mean we don’t have custom loadouts either?

LOL, God the desperation of this thread.
These aren’t even comparisons, half the perks do EXACTLY the same as their CoD equivalents.

Lol umad. I can see it in your attempt to speak with God about the “desperation” of this thread. BTW they’re Loadouts, not Spawn sets or Classes.

And yes i’m in denial. I don’t want to believe that most of my fellow Halo forumers are calling Tactical Packages, Support Upgrades and or Armor Abilities perks.

Methinks Ninja Poop should have this as a helmet for his avatar, given this thread.

I know they’re loadouts, spawn sets was an example of your busted logic. How if I Change the name of something that works EXACTLY the same as something else, you think it’s completely different. LOL how you actually think Halo hasn’t got custom classes, you’re the human embodiment of gullibility.

Mad? Lol no, I’m just baffled that people actually believe the same sort of crap you’re spewing, why would I be angry? We’re talking. I’ll let you troll in peace :slight_smile:

I never said they were different, I said they weren’t perks. They’re Tactical Packages, Support Upgrades, and or Armor Abilities.

I also never said that I think or made it appear that I thought that Halo doesn’t have “custom classes”.

So exactly what are you talking about?
