Why only the BR? Why not have the option to pick the DMR, Carbine, or The NR.

If all the utility weapons kill with equal speed, works equal on all ranges, have the same aim assist and bullet magnetism, and none of them have bloom. Sure, put them all in. If they don’t fit my requirments, and are different, I only want the BR in the classic playlists. If I were to word it differently, it would be something like:“I want balanced playlists.”
If there’s even one classic playlist in Halo 4 then it will have failed as a Halo game. I shouldn’t have to go into a separate section of matchmaking to play what should be the default slayer settings.

I think they are going to kill at the same speed, its just range difference, The BR and Carbine=close-Mid, DMR and NR=mid-Long. It would just come down to personal preference.
i see the whole random weapon spawner is alot better just bc it gives everyone the oppertunity of the power weapons instead of someone tht hogs the weapon all game. i seen this with the sniper mostly in halo 3. theres always tht one guy tht takes it and ur like hey can i try tht weapon and they go no noob! i see it this way even if someones not good with a weapon let them use it more to get better at it. the whole br start i really despised the br when it showed in halo 2 got really annoying getting spawn camped half way cross the maps. if they make the br to a certain bullet traveling distance id be fine with it. the classic feature with the overshield and camo power ups being on the map and no abilities i agree with tht. i just hope they dnt have to many gametypes like infection and stuff tht can be played in customs. i rather have a bigger population in other playlist like in reach u only seen hundereds in some and like thousand in others. so just keep the major ones and have custom games actually mean something.

343 have confirmed that there will be Classic playlists in Halo 4. They are making it for the thousands of players who don’t like the direction default Halo 4 is going. And I am, very greatful for that.

Aren’t wew trying to make the classic gametypes, classic? And, random elements in a game, aren’t fair for anyone.

just making sure i read this correctly.
you are saying that a new (and probably awful) feature like random weapon drops should be in a CLASSIC playlist?
you understand why we will just say no and move on right?
keep in mind, if you want the weapon, then learn when it spawns and make sure you outplay everyone else that wants it. if thats too hard for you than go play another game.
team objective
team slayer
team doubles
big team battle
lone wolf
team classic
mlg(put this for the mlg players even tho i dnt think it should be if u want to think ur good or whatever go to live events)
infection
grifball
action sack
should just stay for custom games
Why Team flag? We need objective too. And it should be balanced like team throwback was in halo 3, not the 30 second return time and other lame stuff like that. It needs to be FUN to do the objective, not easy.
Secondly, all these playlists should be ranked.
Thirdly, if the BR has excessive spread well probly have to find a different Utility weapon.
Oh and slightly faster killtimes, this was a hallmark in halo 1 and sometimes halo 2, halo 3s was fine if it didnt lag so much. So maybe 1.3second kill times? Also Frankie was asked about the halo 1 pistol and he said “there will be something to suit their needs” or something like that.

Thousands… Seriously think you’re over estimating just how many people want “Classic” Halo.
I personally don’t want any classic playlists, virtually no other games do this.
You either move with the times or you get left behind.
I welcome the changes so long as they are handled in a way that fits into Halo, which I am putting my faith in 343 to accomplish.
no i didnt say it should or shouldnt be in the classic playlist. im just saying my opinion on the idea tht 343 was thinking why they put it in. u telling me to play another game u trying to drive people away from the franchise? lmao! man i remember when i first came to these forums everyone was friendly but now tht all these people from the bungie forums converted its like bungie forums all over again. if its not flaming on others u guys are flaming on 343i. if u dnt like what u see/hear then dnt play it simple. i see it this way we wouldnt have halo if it wasnt for 343 so im greatful tht there making there OWN halo not BUNGIE halo.

Oh god this again…
I dont even consider this an argument, just some saying someone made up to bash classic players.

The only reason to want random weapons is if you suck too much to get em on your own skill. (not stat flaming) Maybe if you were actually good, you could get the weapons, no?
> we need btb too
Yes, I am all for every Classic-playlist. Of course. I just think that 343 would rather invest in playlists with the new game mechanics in, instead of the old. I tried to keep the number of playlists as low as possible because of that. And, out of my almost 20000 games in Halo 3 I have noticed that it is mostly the beginners who enjoy playing BTB, and they usually don’t care for game mechanics anyway.
im sorry did u just say u need skill to get a weapon? Lmao

What about the 700k people who stopped playing Halo completely a month after Reach was released? Do they not count as Halo players to you?

What do you mean by over estimating?
- A few thousands play Reach Anniversary.
- 10-50k still play Halo 3.
- Almost a 1000 people still play Halo 2.
- There are many players who quit the Halo-series after Reach was released.
I am also quite sure that many others who will be playing default Halo 4, wouldn’t mind it. At least once they will certainly try out what it was like to play Classic again, and then the playlists are there, right infront of their eyes. Ready to be jumped into and played.
