when do we hear classic playlist news

4 shot br? no random power weapons? faster run speed? no sprint? no perks or AA’s?

maybe even some how add 60 bullets to AR if possible

Do people just not search on Google or keep up to date on podcasts and previous announcements? I know it’s easy to miss something, but 5 minutes on Google is all you need. Like, this was announced 8 months ago.

I think we may be out of luck for the AR thing but I await to see further news on these classic Halo playlists.

What details do you need? “Classic” pretty much speaks for itself.

No, because they screwed that royally in Reach.

When everyone stops crying about it. Which may never happen.

If by “the halo reach playlist” you mean Team Classic and by “spring” you mean sprinting, then you’re wrong on so many levels.

First of all, you contradicted yourself by saying it had no AAs and still had Sprint b/c I’m pretty sure Sprint is an AA in Reach.

Second of all, Team Classic did much more than just no AAs. It had faster movement, higher jumps, increased weapon damage, better starting weapons to reflect better bloom, classic maps, etc.

It wasn’t perfect b/c the TU hadn’t come out yet when it released, and once it did 343i decided to replace it w/ Anniversary instead of updating Team Classic, but it was about as good of a classic playlist as anyone could’ve made w/ the tools at hand.

Halo 4’s core gameplay is looking much much closer to the classic style we’re used to than Reach did so, w/ that said, all we’ll really have to do is turn off loadouts (takes care of no AAs or Mods), place weapons on these maps (instead of drops), and give everyone the same starting weapons (likely BRs), and we’ll already have a classic playlist much better than we had in Reach.

I’m sure I’m not the only one who thinks this way, but I would much rather have the classic playlists be a stripped down version of Halo 4 than a Halo 2/3 imitator like Anniv. was in Reach. No matter how hard they try, it will never be the same if they try to imitate a previous game accurately. The best way to go in my opinion would be to just get rid of all of the additions that have come along since Halo 3, but keep Halo 4’s core gameplay the same.

team classic? that crap came like a year after reach came out lol. sorry i forgot that playlist even came out. i was talking about the original classic playlist so we are misunderstood

> team classic? that crap came like a year after reach came out lol. sorry i forgot that playlist even came out. i was talking about the original classic playlist so we are misunderstood

I don’t recall any other classic playlists ever being in Reach other than Team Classic and Anniversary. There was an original “Classic Slayer” gametype that was thrown in the regular playlists as a voting option, but it was very poor as it was just default Reach w/ no AAs, meaning slow movement, low jumps, weak weapons, default maps, etc. so no one voted for it eventually and it was removed/replaced by Team Classic.

I seriously doubt they will make any drastic alterations to the gameplay mechanics. For starters, the default movement is already like Halo 2/3. Second: The classic playlist was said not to support specializations, and most other new implements. But 60 round AR? 4 shot BR? I seriously doubt they will change the guns like that. And even then, you want a 60 round AR? Just use the SAW.

Apologies, but with your 12 year old grammar, you look more like the YELLOW TEXT here.

Do not aggresively jump people like that. It could lead to your thread closing.

Yeah, you asked for news. We’ve had the news for a while now. What you want is details, and you didn’t say anything like that in your OP. Regardless, classic still speaks for itself, you don’t really need details as you can pretty much guess what that would be. Except for asking for a 60 AR. That’s just, yeah…

and if I wanted to sound smart I’d have pulled out a Thesaurus. Which would be more respectable then just blatant insulting.

The classic playlist he’s talking about came out I believe around the same time the MLG playlist came out. Pretty much all they did is up the power of the AR, and there was no sprint or AA’s everything else was Reach default, which wasn’t very classic feeling and that’s why everyone criticized it.

The AR hasn’t been buffed.

Don’t mind Neo Kaiser, OP. He’s one of the worst posters on this forum.

To answer your question: we’ll probably hear more news about the “classic” playlists in the next couple months. Not too soon though; they’re still working on the playlists.
