What's going with Halo 4?

I don’t know why, but I cannot seem to do well in Halo 4 consistently. I have phases (sometimes even in mid-game) when I am unstoppable, and other times I struggle to even get 10 kills in a game. In all of the previous Halos I have done so much better. I was consistent and I would spree about once a game. Halo 4 just doesn’t feel the same. Is it just me or have other people also had this same problem?

I haven’t had this problem, although sometimes I barely do good and sometimes I do spectacular, so it is a bit inconsistent for me too.

Its most likely a result of how much random **** Halo 4 has going on if you think about it. How could it possibly be balanced and consistent? With all of this stuff:

Tactical Packages

Support Packages

Armor Abilities

Custom Primary Weapons

Custom Secondary Weapons

Personal Ordnance

Random Weapon Drops

Broken Kill Cams

Overly Powered Radar

Grenade Indicators

New Scoring System

Regicide (Scoring gives the advantage to everyone who isn’t king)

Commendations (Cause players to do strange things in games trying to win commendations instead of games)

Challenges (Same as above)

And so on…

I definitely understand what OP’s talking about. I get such random pairings with people. Sometimes we end up going 600-550 or so, other matches it’s 600-270. And these types of matches are equally common. I think it has to do with a really broad trueskill pairing system.

Well in Reach I would do well even without it’s skill pairing.

Remember to bring all the good loadouts with you into battle. Loadouts make a big difference.

depends on how you change your fighting style when faceing diffrent opponents and how your team backs you up Ive had the same problems as you but ive noticed when im doing bad its mostely because my teams just playing horibly not backing me up when they need to and when im doing good its either because my oppenents are screwing up or i have a really good team who uses teamwork. I would recommend maybe finding people online to play with just 1 extra good person on infenety slayer on a bad team can bring a losing team to a win, me and my little brother have joined losing teams thanks to JIP and have won and broughten those teams back.
