Small things in H4 that’s crucial for the experience
These are just some stuff I’d like to see that are all small changes but that change the game experience a lot :slight_smile:

I’ll add more stuff (add your wants that is) to the list underneath the original list as you guys post new ideas.

The only thing they need in common is that they need to be able to be implemented into the game without 343i having to remake anything and therefore delaying game launch severely or shipping a glitchy game :stuck_out_tongue:

And btw, comment on anything you like especially much so that you bump this thread and make 343i see this :slight_smile:
We’re giving you these great ideas for free 343i! Can you believe that 343i?!

Regarding the Rocket Launcher

  • Please take the auto aim off the rocket launcher because it messes up half of the rockets when opponents jump or it aim assist on another target. You aren’t supposed to shoot a rocket on your target. You’re supposed to shoot it at his feet.

Regarding the Perfection medal

  • You should still be able to get the perfection medal if you’re betrayed.

Regarding Jetpack and Control scheme

  • Bumper jumper players need to be able to use Jetpack (IF IT’S IN THE GAME). Otherwise this will ruin the experience quite a bit for me.
    Make the Jetpack usage on the jump button (LB) when your Spartan is already in the air (when you’ve already jumped), or usage when you hold LB and jump on button release.
  • In fact, let there be a custom control scheme option in addition to the already existing control schemes.

Regarding Forge

  • Make forges able to mark many objects and copy and paste them. And while pasting able to mirror and rotate that whole bunch of objects.
    That would save a lot of time trying to make two bases or just two sides of a map identical.
  • Let there be an undo option.
    If you accidently move a piece that took you forever to get in the perfect spot you really wish you could undo that.
  • And finally don’t have a limited amount of objects that you can use in a map.
    Very annoying to get that message and all you need is to put out just a few more objects :frowning:

Regarding MM

  • Add double exp playlists again.
    It’s a great carrot for keeping players in the game.

More community wishes/ideas/wants
PS: I’ll leave the “long ideas” sort of speak… in their original post and just give you a number reference of where you can find a new idea. The number of the post that is.

  • Commendations

  • Custom game search menu

  • Limitless forge world when it comes to map scenario. I.e. time of day, snow, rain, desert, forest etc.

  • Add an option that flips the HUD for left-handed players.

  • If a team mate actually kills you more often than an opponent it should say so in the scoreboard

  • Community created infection gametypes (blow up the bridge, fat man, etc…)

  • Remove the quit option from matchmaking.

  • Post nr. 9 and 11.

  • Half motion sensor option: restricts the motion sensor to just the half in which the player is facing, meaning enemies behind you do not appear on the sensor.

  • Explosives, bullet and plasma damage modifiers all seperate.

  • Fall damage modifier.

  • Vehicle health modifier (rather than just indestructable vehicles yes/no)

  • Regenerating grenades option from H3.

  • Allow us to tweak the traits of each team and loadout seperatly.

  • Disable team colours option.

  • Let us choose ANY vehicle for race.

  • True skill match-up in MM

  • no aim assist on explosive weapons

  • <mark>no deafening effect from grenades</mark>

  • Longer nade fuse (maybe)

  • 3 hit beat down kill

  • bleed through

  • no more host migration at the beginning of a match

  • Ranking system that rewards winning, and winning only

  • Sniper rifle should be more difficult to use.

  • <mark>Being able to plug in an usb stick into my xbox and copy my movies from theatre right onto it and then be able to use them on my computer.</mark>

  • Party viewing movies in theatre

  • Remove the “this player has the best connection and must host the lobby” or whatever that dumb message was that everyone knew how to bypass. lol :stuck_out_tongue:

  • The ability to look at a player’s file share pre-game and post-game.

  • Being able to customize what gun your spartan is holding on his service record.

  • Ability to adjust scoped and unscoped sensitivity independently.

For forge I just want Far cry.

Commendations!

> For forge I just want Far cry.

If they have not already made forge like that it’s not a easy-fix-finial-polish-little-thing. Sorry!

5

Double exp! :slight_smile:

6

Custom Game Searcher Menu

7

And dont make one gigantic forge world. Make forge world so you can choose time of day, snow, rain desert, forest etc. Dont limit our creativity to one simple map.

8

Sneaky reserved

Good stuff.

I’d like to add this:

If the cR and armory system is back, it cannot be tied to ranks whatsoever. All armor should be available for purchase from the get-go with a few exceptions for special pieces unlocked via achievement and maybe a couple simple career milestone ones a la Halo 3. Make armors that you expect will be cooler or however they decided which ones would be unlocked later in the Reach ranks more expensive than others, but not so much so that they’re priced so high it’s discouraging. Highest price should be the Reach equivalent of maybe 300,000-400,000 credits.

10

Also add a control option that flips the HUD for left-handed players.

11

You want something small that changes the game in a big way. GIVE US EQUAL HEALTH AND SHIELDS, It made perfect sense in CE for both health and shields to have an equal 75 hitpoints. Simple and Straightforward. Why Bungie felt the need to change it to Health having barely more than half the hitpoints of shields.

75/75(really any equal number) makes more sense than 45/70.

It will lead to better weapon, melee, and grenade balance.

I think with perfections though if a dude going 15+ kills or whatever and knows he’s probably gonna die or his position is compromised, he can just beg a teammate to betray him so he spawns somewhere safe.

> I think with perfections though if a dude going 15+ kills or whatever and knows he’s probably gonna die or his position is compromised, he can just beg a teammate to betray him so he spawns somewhere safe.

I don’t think it will be exploited like that. If he puts himself no-shield there’s a chance an enemy will shoot just one shot on him before he dies and he won’t get betrayed. I mean with sprint you never know when someone is coming around the corner.
Besides, spawning could be dangerous.
And even if just a few manages to take advantage of this I believe it’s still a good change because it just saves a lot of anger in sooooo many more games :slight_smile:

Couldn’t have said it better myself

All your ideas are great! Except the Rocket Launcher thing, i still like lock on. :stuck_out_tongue:

I really hope we can still assassinate people. I don’t see any knives…maybe its assassins creed-ish? Or like the Republic Commando blade? Heck, we could always snap eachothers necks.
Not exactly small, but you guys are asking alot with your Forge upgrades! ._.

Lock on? Like in Halo 2? I meant the auto aim on rockets. That’s what needs to go :stuck_out_tongue:
