To much change is never good!

I have played halo since halo:ce and i must say the last to installments in the series are not very good. One thing that made halo:ce through halo 3 very good to play was the fact that the gameplay was basically the same in all 3 games. Yes i know there were changes made to each game to improve it in some way, although all changes were not good and didnt work. the fact is that the game still played the same. The reason call of duty does so well is that the gameplay is excatly the same each time a new one comes out. yes there are new features added to each game but there isn’t a complete overhaul of the gameplay itself. this is where i think you(343i) should look at what made halo so popular through a decade and try to get the gameplay to feel more like a halo game.

Many of the people i use to play with that loved halo have now put down there sticks and have moved on to other games. The reason they all give me is that the game doesnt feel or play like halo. I’m not a game designer nor do i claim to know everything that goes in to making a game. All i can do is purchase a game and play it to see if its good or not. This game has potential but it lacks in so many ways it makes the game hard to play.

The game needs serious help in many ways:

*kill cams are horriable because they never work
*need more maps for 4v4 slayer 5 maps are not enough to keep any player coming back
*loadouts need to be changed so that it is balanced. everyone has the same weapons, granades, etc. at the start of a match
*maps that have weapons on them in specific spots the whole game instead of the randomness. this would make map control matter because now its just run and gun without any team work get a randow powerup and back to run and gun
*playsist that people actually want to play. instead of the crappy choices that we are stuck with at the present time.
*ranked and casual playlist. dont really know why these have been taken out in favor of just a bunch of casual playlist???
*etc, etc, etc

and thats just all i feel like typing but there are many more fixes that could be done to make this game much better. i just dont want to see a franchise game that ive enjoyed for over ten years go down the drain and become a copy cat of what other games are doing.

TO BECOME A GREAT GAME YOU MUST ADVANCE THE GAME WHILE KEEPING TRUE TO WHAT MADE THE GAME GREAT FROM THE START.

and by the looks of it halo is now heading down the path of an ok game that will be played but not played to the potential that everyone had hoped for

Because the terrible kids bought the game and dumbed it down so they can start having fun and think their l33t gamer gods. Thats why Kevin and co wants to hide his and everyone elses CSR on waypoint. Face it, they don’t care. They want to sit on their maps the size of canada, use camo while using DMR across map. Wait for sniper ordinance. Rinse and repeat. If it takes skill they took it out. Why do you think their is no-descoping. It took too much skill to zoom back in. Every day I lose faith in this game but I will continue to play because what else is there? BLOPSII? LMAO. Camping is even worse in that game. MLG please hurry with these settings/playlist.

Ah ok so we want more maps to fight on with less variety in guns and combat in general.

Think about this, too much combat variety, too little variety of locations, I agree on the maps in smaller playlists are pretty sparse, but it would take some kind of mind bending explanation as to why I shouldn’t be allowed to use my carbine to make me agree with you there.

The locations/timers could be a little less random but again I say, fighting over the same sniper in the same building would make the limited map selection seem even more limited, besides that I prefer beam rifles anyways, why always shotguns? Hammers swords and scattershot aren’t fun to see? If someone prefers automatics they have to do it your way? Get used to the precision cuz 2/8 people are quitting if u vote ARs?

I think I’ve confused myself.
