Your opinions on how Halo 4 could be improved

First and foremost, sorry if there’s already another thread with the same topic out there, couldn’t find one so thought I’d make one!

This thread is basically for halo players to write their opinions on how Halo 4 could be improved, maybe 343i will look into this thread and consider most suggestions.

My opinions on how Halo 4 can be a better game:

  • Stated a bunch of times before, but we WANT a skill/rank system!
  • Remove instant respawn if a ranking system does get released soon, most game types are already ruined because of instant respawn.
  • Minimize recoil damage in the sniper rifle
  • Add a Beam Rifle and possibly a Binary Rifle when a newer Team Snipers playlist comes out, the past one was really boring with just a sniper rifle!
  • Add a few more maps. I’m pretty sure most, if not all of us are pretty bored playing games on the same maps over and over again! Especially on Haven.
  • Allow up to 4 players in theater mode. Also, please allow us to screen shot scoreboards again, I tried to put some kids on my fileshare after embarrassing them and was disappointed when I couldn’t take a screen shot the score!
  • Disable flag auto-pickup.
  • Make the BR 4 shot again. It’s only fair. The BR is most of the time useless when going up against the DMR.

Please, leave your opinions too! The list will be updated when I think of other ways Halo 4 can be better. The game has a ton of potential to be like Halo 2/3, please don’t let it fail 343i!

I too believe that Halo 4 has potential. Not just in multiplayer, but in almost every aspect of the game. I actually made a post earlier today about what I believe could be improved. I don’t think many people saw it though. :confused:

Let us replay missions of Spartan Ops whenever we want

Custom Game options added in that allow the toggling of the following:

Flag dropping

Auto pick of objectives in general

Sprint

Instant respawning

Weapons for Flood

Weapon rebalances:

Change the Carbine to 7 shot kill with more aim assist while keeping it’s ROF the same.

The DMR has more recoil when fired and ROF is slightly reduced.

The BR can stay the same or become a 4 shot kill, not sure really.

LR: I think it’s fine the way it is.

Fix phasing issues for the environments in the MP spaces (Sitri Stahl already covered this in another thread).

Campaign: On Requiem, fix several AI issues including:

The Spartan IV with a Sniper Rifle hugs the left the wall of the Mammoth staging area instead of jetpacking up to the top of the Mammoth as the other one does.

Patch an issue with Thomas Lasky disappearing once he’s arrived at his terminal. Once the Mammoth starts moving, he disappears and no reason is given for this but still treated as though he is in the vehicle.

Patch a major exploit on Shutdown (fans are going to hate me for this) as it allows you to skip the majority of the level right to Checkpoint Delta.

Allow Terminals to be viewed in a separate menu in Halo 4 as with CE:A, instead of having to watch them on laggy Waypoint. Terminal videos should be viewable when you find them again in the game.

Patch a AI fix where friendlies will fire at you in order to shoot at a dead corpse.

Patch Banshee AI from being so dumb as to nose dive into anything or get stuck in the geometry.

MM updates: Add Team Snipers back (no radar, kill cams which you can disable in the custom games and no instant respawn. Stability for every player in the loadouts to reduce flinch).

Standard lone wolfs FFA playlist with a mix of Slayer and objective game types.

Team Doubles: No radar, no instant respawning or kill cams.

Action Sack: Fun and crazy gametypes.

MLG Playlist- for the hardcore players using the MLG settings and maps. No instant respawning or guests.

Forge maps for every playlist: Due to the lack of variety and both 4 v4 and 8 v 8 maps are needed. New maps and remakes from past Halo games can work.

Ranked playlists split with Social playlists. Ranked will use CSR with DLC required while Social does is what we have now but DLC is optional.
