so now that 343 has shown you how amazing halo 4 is going to be i think all you complainers that were wrong need to apologize for all the tash you talked about halo 4, and if you still want to complain no one is making you buy this game so I would be deeply appreciative if you would refrain from speaking.
edit: so all im saying is man up and admit your wrong unless your that ignorant then be that way cause i dont care. They have produced a new and exciting game and it will be sick to finally get my hands on it.
I understand where you’re coming from with that. But I believe this will probably be the best of the series. I wasn’t really keen on armor abilities or the killstreak based rewards. But with a lot of the feedback that I’ve been reading and hearing… I think we’re in for a treat. And perhaps maybe you could swallow your pride and give this an honest try. If you don’t like it, return it.

You got the last part right - I am not going to buy it.

I have been gaming for 14+ years. I know what I like.
I have played many shooters, before Halo came out and after. Halo fit my picky taste for shooters. The additions they are making in Halo 4 not only go directly against fundamental gameplay of Halo, but they are aspects to gaming in general that I despise.
If I do play Halo 4 it will be through a used or borrowed copy. No way my money is going to the developers.

How exactly is it “cheap?” Pretty sure if you’re any good, you’ll get them and won’t have to worry about people having weapons more powerful than yours. The only time you’ll have weaker loadouts is when you’re just starting. Not to mention every weapon has been balanced so that you can use just about any weapon to beat any other one.

which sounds good in theory but there will be one gun which overpowers everything and why is it fair that one person that put more time then me have a gun which dominates in every range?

I’m not sure how you know that one weapon dominates all the others, but since you clearly do, we should all listen to you.
Are you really THAT immature? Disliking people because they have a different opinion than you is stupid. Don’t you tell me to I would be deeply appreciative if you would refrain from speaking. just because I happen to not like your idea(s).
I still think the game is far below what it could be, and will until I play it (and might afterward). Stop being so obnoxiously intolerant.

Dude your ridiculous
Sprint: everyone who had played it say it does not effect gamplay at all and infact like it compared to halo reach
Loadouts: people are liking this on how it works.
Weapon drops: Gametype and map specific
Unlockables: all these “ridiculous game changers” aren’t and work well with they game and just help define playstyle which in NO way is a NEGATIVE.
Vehicles Look just like they did in previous games A grenade through under carriage of a vehicle added with the surrounding fire mean EXPLOSIVE warthog
Weapons:Which is in fact contrary to what people are saying
Text: really i dont really seem to find it that distracting
and no one who has actually played it have concerns only people watching it
The many years of gaming is irrelevant. If you don’t like it, you don’t like it. As I said, I’m not a fan of the call of duty stuff. Hopefully we’ll have a classic slayer option. But with a lot of the feedback that the game behaves more like halo 2 and halo 3 than reach. I’m excited.
The vehicles aren’t actually that weak cause if you look at the multiplayer gameplay you see the warthog being shot by a ghost and a couple of teammates then get destroyed by that dude who throws the grenade and he gets 2 assists for it.
First of all, my complaints had good intentions in mind. My worries about weapon balance are nearly gone, along with movement speed, consistency, and bleedthrough.
I’m still hesitant about some additions though. We haven’t seen enough gameplay to determine how balanced loadouts and AAs will be, we heard that Promethean Vision is very dominant in the AA category (and that the Sniper/PV combo is very powerful), we heard that the Ordinance Drops are fairly overbearing when the skill gap of the players isn’t properly matched (Nexy said he was getting OS drops, and could consistently get another OS drop by using that original OS. In other words: Ordinance Spam). Sprint is still a touchy subject as well (Walshy said that he didn’t slow down when getting shot).
So, have some of my complaints been proven wrong? Yes. Do I feel the need to apologize? Hell no. Encouraging people too look at all possible outcomes is always a good thing. Through my long winded rants on these forums, if I got at least one person to say “Oh, I never thought of it that way. Hopefully 343 listens and makes sure to properly handle this possible issue”, than my rant was successful. Oh, and we still don’t have a confirmed Spectator Mode, so anyone hoping my female-dogging and moaning was going to stop, you’re wrong.
