Exactly what I am expecting from the TU to change Armor Lock. AL would be an amazing AA after that tweak allowing it to fit within the Reach sandbox and create amazing dynamic gameplay not slowing down the game at all.
Along with Faster movement speed, Faster resetting and consistent Bloom, More Skillful nerfed grenades, and Vehicle physics change ie flimsy Warthog the game will be amazing!
> > 343 DO NOT CHANGE ARMOR LOCK!!! AND DO NOT REMOVE IT!!! It is in the game for a reason. If people don’t like it, then don’t play it! If they still want to play Halo: Reach then they should play ONLY in playlists that do not include Armor Lock.

I do know what I am talking about. I do not see what the big fuss is about (armor lock) removing it or tweeking it. It’s very easy to work around. If you don’t understand how to work around it then that is a personal problem. Not the game. It’s in the game to add a challenge to make the gameplay more interesting. If Bungie thought it was a bad idea they wouldn’t have put it in the final game.

I’m not sure if you’re trolling or you actually think AL was put in the game to make gameplay more interesting…
AL was implemented as a way to survive large amounts of damage, just long enough to survive that one hit. Bungie, when implementing it, hoped it would be used to shed sticky grenades, reflect rockets, block 1 sword swipe etc. However, they implemented it poorly and pretty much turned everybody using it into an invincible monolith.
It shouldn’t be removed, because the amount of kids that would cry for weeks would be insufferable. It should, however, be tweaked. It should have a cooldown time of 45 seconds, and should only last for 1.5 seconds, with no frosting.
The TU should bring new custom options avaible, with an anniversary playlist that has them on, making the game play like a classic <3
New custom options would be:
Bloom on/off toggle (when off, the fire rate is slower and the weapon can’t be “spammed” becuase it has a set fire rate)
Grenade Damage**: 85%*/100%/110%/120% (__Frags don’t go through shields, but still leave one shot)
Fall damage on/off toggle
New Moving speed option: 90%/100%/110%/__115%/120% (* Halo 2 moving speed)
Melee System: No bleedthough/Bleedtrough
** Changing the weapon damage, does not affect the grenades anymore.

An option for the AA when you used it up, it dissapears. And how much you fuel you get with the jetpack, how strong it is and such.
Also, bring back the old emblems and make an option for cloak, begin invisible all the time even when moving, and not.
And more options for the AAs like what i said above, shield taking more damage and such.
Also, we re… I really would love a new feature on the vehicles:
Warthog: Machinegunturret, trooper, none.
Falcon: Machinegunturret, trooper, grenade laucher, none.
That + what you said is what i want, emblems, vehicle options, AA options, yeah and fix the rocks and heavy thing in forge, when i put on normal, and place them somewhere (wanting to make a rock slide) they just get locked in the air every time
Take a look at this photo of the armory from the Halo: Reach beta.
What you may notice is a small percentage on the bar where you earn credits. The given player has 57% of corporal done.
Why this was ever removed from the final product is beyond me, and I personally believe that everyone would enjoy it’s comeback.
It sure as hell beats the accurate method of yelling 'IM AT THE C IN CAPTAIN!!!
Does not bother me. You have taken the time on checking the forums. Now check the STATS or HaloCharts for more detailed overlook over your account. Tell more than just %.

Yes the beta was way better than the final game. I can’t believe the fans and bungie screwed up.
Would anyone else like to see the player of the game’s picture show up on the first page of the Carnage Report, kinda like in halo 3? I mean there’s already this huge empty square there that needs to be filled…

I think the two biggest fails were increasing the DMR’s magasine… Which spawned the Infamous DMR Spammin’ and they nerfed the magnum in the Beta because people were claiming “it’s supposed to be a sidearm not a primary weapon”, obviously they’ve never played CE.
Make better/Creative maps; The maps on reach are so dull, what happened 343? halo 3 had great maps
Fix Armer abilities
Why did you get rid of the bubble shields???
RANKED PLAYLISTS LIKE HALO 3<-------I get matched up with stupid teamates
Sword block fix…
Mellee system fix…
I never thought i’d see a noobtoob in halo =’(
More creative forge world maps with objects, like Sandbox. The itiems on forge world are dull and all grey.
idc much about the armer but I suggest more armer and more secret helmets like the haunted skull.
Less power weapons on the maps.
The quiting system, Whenever I play a match someone(s) quits 80% of the time.
The super jackpot weekend is useless
Bungie/343 you guys should make another type of armer like (recon) or flames and re add bungie favorites and people who get on the favorites get rewarded that type of product, to motovate people of forging maps, and getting more creativity with custom games
File share; it has to be fixed. halo 3 had the fil share right. Also pictures. Pictures will never be the same like halo 3. Nobody ever looks at each others file share anymore because its broken, one must wait for pics to load… ect
The arena, it has to be fixed
Halo 3 equipment was great like the bubble shields
Fix ranking system. Every match is the range of 1-3 thousand credits and halo 3 had it right.
THEATER FIX only one person can watch a video?!?!!? and in the prevouse halo you could have 4. That makes no sence at all.
Health pack/bar is useless.
Two sword guys shoot at same time and both die, need to be fixed with sword battle,especially with grifball and custom games

And we will hear more about it at Halo Fest.
Also, remember me Urza?
We found eachother in the classic playlist and you said you knew me from the Waypoint forums
