Your "Top 5" for the Title Update

  1. Nerf Armour Lock, if you get stuck your stuck. Limit it to 3 secs, remove emp. AL should be a last resort only and only be available on maps where there are vehicles.

  2. Bloom, spammers should never win, personally I’d remove bloom but if it stays it needs tweeking to reward players who try to use it properly.

  3. Melee is awful, revert back to Halo 3 melee.

  4. Grenades, players should only start with one grenade to reduce spamming. Also reduce radius or damage.

  5. Make the Warthog better, it’s supposed to be several tons of menacing military vehicle. It feels sometimes that it’s made out of balsa wood. Vehicle maps are great to play in Halo 3, in Reach they’re just not good to play.

> 1st) Removal of Armour lock from all playlists
> 2nd) Nerf nades
> 3rd) Complete infection overhaul (community maps, decrease pistol ammo, increase shotgun ammo, remove the cage and swordbase, fix betrayal glitch, more infection game types, a fair zombie routa and enabel booting)
> 4th) color palette for forge world
> 5th) more custom game options (including vip)

i agree with this

1dont fix bloom or tweak it its fine as it is i dont wanna adapt causer little ids cant adapt to bloom
2 more arrmory
3 a new forge world with more features like everything in boardwalk forge and forgeworld forge + in thisnew forge world map there needs to be gras snow and sand. in other words multiple enviorments.
4 bring some halo 3 weapons back
5 put drop shield in matchmaking

also 343i dont fix armor lock or bloom these little kids have to adapt to them and dont remove emp armor lock takes skill also does bloom but must of the people who cry over al and bloom leave the game cause they cant adapt. mabye if these guys tried to adapt they would see how much skill it takes with these features.

Honestly, I personally don’t think any of you are focusing on what this Title Update is for. It’s not to make add-ons for the game such as:

"2. Add a “Wort-wort-wort” speech bubble, Heart Attack-style, Elite armor effect. Rainbows coming out of Spartans’ backsides would also be an acceptable addition."

That’s just ridiculous. Yeah, it would possibly be cool to have those types of add-ons, but I would much rather have something more drastic happen, that would help the game be better.

Axilo at H3F found this thread and noticed you guys were posting things that wouldn’t help the game out. And he posted a thread on H3F telling people to say something worth while.

So here are my more knowledgeable and realistic opinions:

  1. Reticule bloom gone.

  2. Armor lock gone.

  3. AR range reduced a -Yoink- load. (I’m sure people on H3F will agree.)

  4. Fall damage gone.

  5. Sniper hitboxes on the head reduced.

  1. Re-balance weapons and starting positions on all maps. All but three of them have biased spawns towards one of the teams, particularly sword base and ascension.

  2. Increase fuse time on grenades. As they are now it’s impossible to dodge even a badly thrown grenade without armor lock or evade.

  3. If possible make the sniper somewhat difficult to use again and fix the revenant glitch. I shouldn’t actually have to explain this one. Everyone’s mother can get easy headshots on Reach, and when someone is walking away from you it’s practically an auto headshot.

  4. Nerf armor lock and evade, make jetpack a map based pick up. Having a team of 4 using any of those pretty much ruins games.

  5. Fix bloom on the DMR. Contrary to blind people’s opinions, the weapon is very inconsistent and numbers show it.

-Fix Armor Lock
-Fix Assassination Glitch when preforming assassination on slope, it skips the animation
-Blood Gulch needs a few fixes with weapons… Needs a Spartan Laser/Rocket Launcher
-VIP is a need
-Separate Team Traits

  1. More arena playlists.
  2. Division visible on nameplate and highest division placement in service record.
  3. Fix Armor lock.
  4. Make it so if you’re shot while sprinting you can still sprint and it not be all glitchy.
  5. Option to find people “Near you”. E.g Find people who are in UK.
  1. AAs being adjusted.
  2. Jump height and speed is the same as the previous games.
  3. Weapons being adjusted.
  4. Vehicles being adjusted.
  5. Bloom needs to be fixed.

I really don’t have 5 things for Reach but I know for sure they need to add a ranking system similar to halo 2 or 3, 1 - 50 was great you can even make it 1-100 i wouldn’t really care, but its sad how i win 90% of games not trying.

Also jetpack lasts too long, other then that i really dont have a problem.

I don’t have a problem with bloom but Armor Lock does need some tweaking. Here’s what I see as problems with Armor Lock:

  • As I player, if I AL how do I have full 360 degree view of the battlefield and when I come out I can instantly face any direction I want? When a player Armor Locks their view should be directly into the ground just like when you aim straight down with a gun.

  • Frosting effect/AL spamming - When a player barely hits the trigger to activate there’s a small window where they take no damage and same when they come out of amror lock yet the player can still attack back untouched. Frosting needs to be removed.

  • Pre-AL Grenade Stick Rejection - If I stick someone with a grenade BEFORE they AL, it should still kill them as technically it should be inside of their AL. If they get stuck while in AL then it should remain a rejection. Why strip a player of an excellent stick and reward a player for an easy counter?

  1. Armor Lock (see above)
  2. Infection - (add community maps, fix human/zombie kill resulting in a betrayal, TURN OFF FRIENDLY FIRE)
  3. Remove Credit Cap
  4. Bring back some of the Halo 3 gametypes
  5. Can’t think of a 5th right now
  1. Take out Armor Lock, it isn’t wanted in Halo.

  2. Remove bloom, it wasn’t in any of the previous Halo titles and it really doesn’t belong in them.

  3. Nerf or remove the Banshee’s bomb attack. The Banshee should be a vehicle of skill, not sheer force. The bomb can fire too fast and does too much damage. It makes anyone who’s half decent at Halo a one man wrecking crew.

  4. Tone down grenades, make them map pickups or make 1 grenade start.

  5. Bring back Juggernaut and VIP as gametypes in Free For All and Team Objective.

Blooms not the problem, I like it I think it has a more competitive feel to it, with halo being hit scan no bloom would make it so anyone with a controller can 5 shot you.

Sniping on the other hand is too easy.

Ranking system needs fixed

1)Remove Bloom
2)Make a ranking system similar to Halo 3 (for example, ranks for each playlist)
3)Make armor abilities pickups
4)Nerf the sniper so it can’t destroy vehicles in a couple of shots
5)Incorporate a better beat-down system.

in no particular order

  1. nerf/ remove armour lock
  2. either a rethink on the ranking system or have your arena division rating visible in all playlists
  3. added armour coz i love new shiney things :smiley:
  4. sometimes power wepons like rockets, snipe or grenade launcher glitch and reload twice… FIX
  5. cant think of a 5th but i like bloom on precision weapons dont removeee it :(… maybe tweak but dont remove

1- Removal of AL in small games, or nerfing AL
2- Give the forge oracle a Laser Face
3- Allow forge on FF maps, maybe make those maps usable for all game types
4- Add other Halo weapons, we miss the BR, SMG, and Carbine… and perhaps reintroduce dual-wielding
5- More Commendations and Armor to work towards

And no, I don’t want Bloom removed. It is only flawed by internet (Host) flaws. Otherwise it is a beautiful system that doesn’t allow spamming bullets.

  1. Remove sword-block.
  2. Tweak armour lock.
  3. Fix the vehicle physics.
  4. Tweak hologram; make holograms appear as red dots on the enemies’ radars.
  5. Fix the plasma launcher. It’s far too weak.

1: Forge Leader Only option.

2: Time it takes to strafe in the opposite direction reduced.

3: VIP brought back.

4: Let splatters still be possible if player is not allowed to deal damage. (Or at least an option that does so)

5: Armor Lock Nerfed.

  1. Tweak of bloom- Make it even more inaccurate than it already is when firing fast.
  2. Armor Lock- Make it last only 2-2.5 seconds and remove emp blast.
  3. Keep Ranking System but 1-50 in playlist from halo 3.
  4. Buff the assault rifle- Give it 10% more damage than it has right now.
  5. No fall damage.

1 black holes and spaces with different gravity as objects in forge world
2 CHOPPERS!!!
3 Bring back equipment. It would be cool if you could throw a power drain while jetpacking or throw a grav lift while sprinting. Bubble shield and hologram should be equipment and armor lock should be removed completely.
4 Please bring back fire grenades & the flame thrower.
5 Am I the only one that wants Buggers back in firefight?
