I was going to post a couple of things that needed to be fixed but than I found a video from THC(TheHaloCouncil)along with their forum. I believe 343i DEFINITELY NEEDS TO SEE THIS along with the community forum ninjas. I’m sure 343i is aware of this video and forum but if not, here you go!

This is the THC forum: http://www.halocouncil.com/community//index.php?/topic/10572-halo-4-fixes-that-are-needed-immediately/
If anyone feels THC and their forum missed anything, PLEASE post your ideas on this site first.
This video needs to be watched by more.
Fix your bullcrap 343
343 hopefully has seen this…
I hope 343 will read that list.
We should set up a schedule so people can take shifts bumping this thread to the top 24/7 so that maybe 343 will see it.
I agree with them completely…
I agree with them 100%, but the way they bashed 343 and whined the entire time kind of stripped their credibility. If they could have been adults about it maybe 343 would take them a little more seriously.
I wholeheartedly agree with them. I REALLY want to love this game. I was SO excited in the months prior to release, and all we heard about was “balance, balance, balance”. I haven’t experienced any such thing. We can spawn with x-ray vision, a handheld shotgun that has pretty decent range (Boltshot), flinch just sucks (I can’t believe it but I’d rather be knocked out of scope), and there are bugs everywhere.
Take Ragnarok for example. If you crouch walk up the hill, you can STILL be seen on radar even though crouch walking is supposed to omit you from being tracked.
Another thing with Ragnarok, I was playing a BTB Slayer game on it today, and an enemy charged me with the Ghost while I was using the Mantis. So, obviously I stomped to destroy them, but what’s this? No damage done! The Ghost was quite literally under my foot when I stomped on it, and it didn’t take a scratch of damage. This lead to me being boarded by that pilot and getting destroyed which cost my team (of randoms) a lot of havoc.
There’s just so much that needs fixing. I’m only an SR-36 and I’m already getting tired of all the inconsistencies and random elements. The “grind it out” ranking system isn’t helping me much either. It’s a pretty busy time of year with holding down a part time job and going to college full time, and when I get a free moment, I want to get onto Halo 4 and have a fun experience. I want it to be balanced and not random. I want to be able to feed my competitiveness without the things that detract from it.

I thought this was going to be about…you know gameplay changes… but yeah whatever they need to get fixed anyways
I still have to watch the last bit…
But so far its all true
This is part of the list by apk
Before I begin, I’d like to preface this thread by saying that the list of changes listed below are only included because they are absolutely needed because they are issues related to the functionality of the game. I understand competitive players want a Flag drop toggle, Sprint toggle, etc., but these are, at their core, just “wants” and not needs. With that said, these are issues that need changes and fixes as soon as possible:
Game Announcements (Multikills, Sprees, etc.) Are Not Made In Theatre Clips -When you create a clip from a full film, the announcer no longer is audible.
Lack of Precision Forge Controls -Reach’s Forge controls allowed players to move objects slower and more precisely when holding in the Left Analog Stick. Additionally, players were able to zoom in on objects with the Right Stick to get a better handling of their precision movements. These controls have been removed without explanation.
“X” Waypoint for Dead Teammates No Longer Exists -Another feature that has been removed without explanation.
Grifball “Ball Arm Time” Is Bugged -Setting the Arm Time to any other setting than Instant does not actually change the Arm Time.
Lack of Party Indicators In Matchmaking -Another feature that has been removed without explanation.
Party Details Tell Significantly Less Details in Halo 4 -Another feature that has been removed without explanation.
Setting Ammo Count for Battery-Based Weapons in Forge Does Nothing -Changing Ammo Count for batter-based weapons hasn’t had an effect every since Forge was introduced in Halo 3. Surprising to see this bug make its way into another game.
Weapons De-spawning Too Quickly If Not An Ordnance Weapon -Players have noticed that weapons are despawning at a ridiculously quick rate after they have been dropped in comparison to past Halo games. This makes drop-spawning weapons (which creates static weapon spawns) a very inefficient method to spawning weapons.
Games Beginning With No Players On Opposing Team -Games will somtimes begin with no players on one of the teams. This usually occurs when an entire team backs out after a game or the game after a game has ended because the entire team quit out. This bug is costing players Double XP games.
Alphabetical Order For Active Rosters -Really confusing when you try to look for specific players through your Active Roster. Essentially forces you to just scroll through the entire Active Roster to find players.
Tactical and Support Packages Earned Through Specializations Are Not Options In Custom Games -It seems very unneccesarry for these to not be included as options in custom games. It almost seems as if this was an oversight.
Cannot Change Max Player Count of Lobby Once a Player Joins -Very annoying bug. Requires the leader to leave the party and make a new one to set a new Max Player Count.
Impact and Erosion Dynamic Lighting Bugs -Both of these forge pallets have bugged or glitched dynamic lighting when about $6000 of the budget is spent. Impact will only cast shadows in proximity of the player, and leaves the rest of the map outside of this “sphere” without shadows, making the map super bright. Erosion loses dynamic lighting entirely and selects what appears to be random tones for the pieces.
Bugged Assassinations -Players have experienced very buggy assassinations, sometimes allowing their player to navigate out of the assassination animation and kill the player assassinating them.
Setting Respawn Time in Slayer, Infinity Slayer, KotH and Oddball Gametypes Does Not Negate Instant Respawn -Instant Respawn is always an option to players during a game no matter what the Respawn Duration setting is set to.
Bugged Flag Physics -The Flag in CTF will sometimes get caught in map geometry and players aren’t able to pick up the Flag.
Inability To Set Ammo Amount on Initial or Random Ordnance -In Halo 3 and Halo: Reach, you were always allowed to set the amount of ammo weapons would spawn with. When spawning weapons through Ordnance, you do not have this option any more. This is especially an issue with Initial Ordnance.
Ordnance UI Displaying Incorrect Weapon -In some cases, Ordnance UI will display the incorrect weapon. The most common cases are Frag Grenades having a Spartan Laser indicator and Rocket Launchers having Needler indicators.
