What about the simple things?

I am looking forward to Halo 4. However, I would like some of the simple things to return from Halo 3 that weren’t in Halo: Reach. Again, just simple things.

  1. Assist System - I like to see that I helped. In Halo 3 you knew when you helped and when you didn’t. In Halo: Reach it seems rare for a team to get at least 20 assists, if that.

  2. Team Scores - I enjoyed in Halo 3 when a team was leading you could tell. The team bar was ‘further’ ahead than the opponent.

Halo 3:
Red - ======50
Blue - ===35

Halo: Reach:
Red-50
Blue-35

Does that make sense? Lol.

  1. Emblems - :,(

  2. Killing Message - I am fine with it being as simple as X killed Y. NOT X killed, murdered and stomped Y while they were on a spree with a headshot; covering half the screen

  3. MVP - An award that was always fun to see.

  4. Medals - Don’t need a medal for every single action!

Again, these are just really simple things that I enjoyed.

Feel free to comment on your small, but subtle enjoyments :slight_smile:

I completely agree with all of these.

Thanks man. It’s the simple things that make everything more enjoyable. :slight_smile:

> I completely agree with all of these.

Same.

I share a similar intellectual view with you my friend.

I’m not quite sure what you mean by the assist system. I don’t believe it changed. I seem to notice I get assists more in Reach because of the medal. That would be nice if they would include every emblem iteration that there has ever been. For sure make the kill messages simple unlike Reach, that bothers me the most.

I agree will all, and I have a few simple things of my own:

Easter eggs: EE hunting is my favorite thing to do when I take a break from MM and after I’ve completly destroyed the campaign on legendary. There’s nothing better than to EE hunt in Halo on a snowy tuesday around 10am-ish when I’ve stayed home from work sick.

Every 343i employee should get a chance to hide their own EE in Halo 4 and have an in house contest to see which EE stay undiscovered the longest. That way we have enough EEs to keep EE fans like me busy for months even years. :smiley:

Firefight Forge, MM bots, Multiple Forge Worlds… okay, okay, the rest of my ideas are more of a wish list than actual simple things. lol…
