Recently i havent seen that much complaint about loadouts. This is bad.
Remember reach? Of course you do. Left and right there were complaints about Bloom and armour lock. Guess what enough complaining and it was removed. Those were by far the 2 most complained about things on reach imo.
Loadouts are what ruined halo 4. Yes they are slightly better now with the weapon tuning update, but after playing CTF on Ragnarock I realized it didnt do a damn thing. I wont get into it but everybody deserves a fair start and there is nothing fair about the loadouts in this game.
Look what happened with the DMR.
Here me out.
HR to H4
Armour lock - removed - armor abilities not that complained about anymore
HR to H4
DMR - not removed - one of the most complained about things in this game
H4 to Halo xbox one
Loadouts - removed - everyones happy
OR
Loadouts - not removed - One of the most complained about things
I don’t want to be forced to play with a standard weapon I don’t like and have to look around the map frantically for a weapon I do, and I don’t want to see other people suffering from the same thing.

I agree with this mindset. However, I think we can have our cake and eat it to. Simply apply playlists and gametypes that do not use the loadout feature. Another thing that can be done is limit certain things we have access to with loadouts. For example, instead of spawning with to plasma grenades, only allow us to spawn with one (or remove it completely).
I can assure one thing above all else, it is the constructive criticisms that have shaped online MP since Halo4’s release, not any constant barrage of complaints.
Please feel free to discuss the things you liked and did not like about previous Halos, and keep it clean.
