I don’t know if there’s already been a post about this, but I was curious about the fate of the Hacker and Teleport armor abilities, do you think we’ll see them added at some point in the future?
If you haven’t seen the new abilities, here is a link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2RI45IjeFI
Nope. Cut content is often included within the code for a number of reasons based around practicality. Since changing even the smallest piece of code can cause problems, there’s no point removing content that can’t be accessed through normal interaction with the game.
I’d really like Hacker to be honest, Teleport would make Thruster and Jet Pack obsolete however Hacker is a good enough ability to stand out on it’s own next to the other 8. Give up using an Armor Ability to force someone else to do the same, seems balanced right?
Teleport seems to be an itial attempt at thruster which was obivously well OP.
Hacker would be pointless because it would be so OP that everyone would use hacker, giving no one anything to hack!

It’s neither a hack or a mod, it’s cut content. 343 made it but decided not to include it in the game.
Teleport is part of the Prometheans teleport ability. They must have played around with it on spartans. And tbh, teleport would be so annoying and OP in multiplayer.
But I would love to see Hacker in a final form. But on the other side, maybe everyone would use it then since it can deactivate every AA in the game which destroys the actual purpose of AAs in general. It’s a very controverse AA and I’m sure that’s why they decided not to develop it any further.

Mod content? Nope, Chuck Test— I mean, cut content.
They’re not ‘new’ you know. They were scrapped before the game was released. Teleport was even on the disk when it released (you can find a video of someone using it on one of the Forge maps before the game was released). So they already didn’t make it into Halo 4.
I dont really think teleport should make it in but Hacker seemed kind of awesome.
Teleport will never make it into Multiplayer (Unless you can’t use your guns for the next 5 seconds)
Hacker would be very interesting, but perhaps only make it work against some of the AA’s. (PV, AC, Jet Pack).
I know 343i confirmed the Teleport was replaced by Thrust due to it being radically overpowered. (It was supposed to look like a Promethean Knight when it teleports too). But I WANT the Hacker ability. Honestly it’s an armour ability, that turns off armour abilities. that’s perfect for me because I hate the things.
It would be best if it, say, activated on every enemy and ally within your motion tracker. Or just deactivated everyone’s AAs for the entire game. That would be fantastic and would fix one of the major problems with the game.

Wow…
You can have Teleport… find a really laggy game… hell, worse yet you might not teleport, but they will be… kill you out of nowhere.
IMO teleport would be game breaking. Everyone would stay in the fight until their shield pops then teleport away at the last second. Everyone would use it and no one would be able to get kills.
Hacker seems like it could be a pretty cool
Idea. I know for a fact all the complainers that think armor abilities destroyed halo back in reach would use hacked to make the game feel like old halo again.
No, they are not new ones but actually so old they were already removed before the public release.
