We got screwed from all sides

Hear me out.

Forgers have smaller maps and the small white-UNSC pallete across all three forging maps. No more fine editing, no more zoom. No UNSC Vehicles? Not even a Pelican for forge?

Custom Gamers have much less custom game options. Forced Color? Sprint Toggle? Flag Pickup Toggle? Flood Customs are ruined because old classic gametypes are defunct.

Filmers cannot film campaign and Spartan Ops. No video rendering service in the near future.

Competitive Players are whining over every little detail. SWAT? DMRs?

Casual Players are whining over every little detail. Armor Abilites? CoD-esque features?

We were lied to at RTX when the panel said you can lower your weapons online.

Roosterteeth can’t even film RvB in the Halo 4 engine because theres no black to make Tex. Theres no more Forced Color option.

Personally? I love Halo 4. I also loved Reach. I loved Halo 3. I loved Halo 2. I loved Combat Evolved, and was overjoyed with CEA. I love this game, this universe, this story, and all the minds behind it, Bungie and 343 alike, but I can’t help but shake my head at what we’ve lost compared to, say, Reach, and even Halo 3.

Does anyone else agree or disagree?

oh my god, its like you read my mind. AGREE

Im just a little disappointed with the game, probaly because I had HIGH expectations. Maybe after a few updates, some new dlc and more experience I’ll change my opinion. Definitely miss Assault and throwing the flag though…

Halo:Reach got, if nothing else, Forge and custom games right. Hopefully they will release an equivalent of Forge World, and the lack of a human air-vehicle really down my custom games. Kind of limiting.

Let me just point out, I’m not trying to bash 343. There’s just one thing I don’t understand. 343 is supposed to be mostly big-time Halo fans, with two or three ex-Bungie employees. They’re closer to the fanbase than Bungie ever was, because in reality, for a time, they WERE part of the fanbase. I don’t understand how people so close and loving of the franchise could take out so many features.
