…That there’s no Armor Lock in H4!
Agreed.
How about we just thank the community for voicing their opinion and 343 doing something about it?
…Sorry for armor lockin’
Well there go some ridiculously easy kills to get. Guess this community fears increasing their scores.
I would have preferred that armor lock be fixed rather than removed

I’m glad that 343i actually does what the majority asks for rather than Bungie just saying “lol too bad, our game”.

Nah, just fearing slower game play.

Bungie would have taken AL out, but their contract with Microsoft prevented them from making any big changes like that.

This.

No. Instant invincibility should never be reality in a fast-paced game, or any game for that matter, unless it’s in campaign.
Its about time people realized that there is really no way that instant invincibility can be balanced.
In the first gameplay trailers they showed people using armourlock to destroy vehicles and deflect rockets. In reality all people use it for is when some one comes at them with no more than an assault rifle and they happen to be loosing the fight, they then armor lock and everyone stands around for the ridiculously long time it lasts.
If it lasted for about 1 second it MIGHT be okay, but as it is it pauses gameplay, exactly like they said in the sparkcast.

I could care less to increase my score or not due to armor lock. What I do care about though is how armor lock somewhat pauses the game in a sense when fighting someone. It also increases the chances of someone else being involved in your fight while you wait for someone to pop out of armor lock thus, giving that random person an easy kill on both of you.
The effect should only last for a few seconds, thus allowing the user to defend against potential instant kills. As a result, the ability would be useful while not severely hindering gameplay.
omg halo 4 gonna be godly game go 343

I don’t even. Bungie made Halo:Reach forge, and they made the best trilogy ever. Without them we wouldn’t be even talking on the Halo 4 forums. It saddens me people are blindly accepting 343 when they haven’t made a game and Bungie made 3 of the best games of all time.
If I were 343 I wouldn’t have kept AAs at all because of the overall disappointment of the Halo fan base.
Very happy it is gone. I wouldn’t have minded to have seen it revamped, but it might have unrevampable (copyright new word)
Wouldn’t have minded seeing it forge.
and how will we counter nukes grenades?
Hopefully grenades will no longer be nukes. I’m tired of frag grenades being everyone’s primary weapon in Reach.
