Your "Top 5" for the Title Update

My top 5 for the update will include:

  1. Fix or remove bloom entirely and bring back recoil
  2. Remove Arena and bring back 1-50 and have a number permantly on the gamertag to bring back the population
    3.Bring back other ranked playlists like swat snipes and mlg ranked
    4 Fix armor lock or remove it completely
    5.Get rid of seasons in arena to bring back the main population
  1. Toggle bloom on/off in custom settings.
  2. Four player theater system.
  3. Add more color to the forging maps so every map isn’t gray.

I only have one that really annoys me when it happens:

Fix/tweek/modify the hologram so that it is not target by it’s own user, because when you get the element of surprise and go for the kill and get tracked to your own hologram, all advantages are lost

  1. FIX BLOOM. Spamming should be punished to make it useless at mid-long range.

  2. Ability to toggle individual weapon/weapon group damage so DMR kill times can be increased whilst not affecting grenade/rocket/snipe etc damage.

  3. Use a tweaked melee system from a previous game ie use bleed through again.

  4. Improve the net code so people living outside America can actually play the game without being hugely disadvantaged. I could seriously make a sponge montage and I have a 50 meg connection…

  5. Allow a group to watch theatre together again! (Including clips!!!)

Thanks 343, you have the power to make this the game it has the potential to be!!!

P.S If you could add a BR 90% of the community would go weak at the knees and wet their pants. I kinda support the ranking system thing too but you should NEVER be deranked if your team mates leave/derank/don’t play.

My top 5 in no order:

  1. Ability to toggle Bloom on/off
  2. Bleed through melees
  3. Four people capable of watching a film in theatre at once.
  4. A ranking system (H2/H3 Just a ranking system)
  5. Customize how much damage can be dealt with grenades

My top 5

  1. Remove bloom. The bloom system blows, it does not work and overall makes Halo feel very COD like.

  2. Fix the melee system. No bleed through does not work. Go back to Halo 3’s post patch melee system.

  3. Please install a real ranking system. Arena and Arena rating/divisions are stupid. The lack of a real ranking system deteriorates match quality.

  4. Remove Armor lock, it’s just flat out dumb. At least make it so there is a wait time after leaving Armor lock before the player can melee.

  5. Punish quitters, nothing is more frustrating than going into a math 3v4. The lack of a real ranking system is the reason why this is a problem. Since there is no rank, there is no motive to try.

I have faith in 343. Please fix this game and make halo playable again.

The ability to toggle bloom on/off, maybe change the radius of individual weapons’ bloom.
4 person theater! :]

  1. Alter Bloom.
  2. Remove the stun and EMP from armor lock.
  3. (hopeful) Add the ability to add armor DLC.
  4. Increase the fuse on grenades. At the current speed (which is fine) it’s very difficult to run or jump out of the direct impact of the grenade.
  5. Maybe alter the colors a bit, so we can have the color of Kat’s armor.
  6. (Since these don’t require a title update, I’m adding a 6th and 7th) Race and Rocket Race Playlists. 'Nuff said.
  7. Bring back VIP. (I remember someone at Bungie saying that it was possible.:wink: )

1.Toggle Bloom On/Off, AND increase the bloom so spamming is pretty much useless at ANY range

  1. Matchmaking ranking system

3.Bleed through on Melee

  1. Bloom needs to be taken away
  2. Nades need nerfed
  3. Armor abilities need to be pickups/gone
  4. Ranking System like Halo 2
  5. More Halo 2 map remakes please

Mine:

  1. Fix the custom game options. Some of them are broken. Also, maybe enable custom game matchmaking?

  2. Fix the horrible lag in firefight games.

  3. Fix the Betrayal system and booting options

  4. Fix the stupid forge save glitch where if you select a map, it may select another map instead. This causes the map to be lost forever unless you have a backup save or it’s in the Temp map history. And remember, games in forge are not saved in the temp history.

  5. Fix the issues with Infection. For example, the zombie betrayal issue and the bulltrue issues.

  1. Bloom toggle on/off
  2. Ranking system brought back
  3. Full part theatre
  4. Bleed Through toggle on/off
  5. Colors more dominate on forge objects (so they stand out mor)
  1. Allow for a toggle of bloom

  2. Revert the assist system back to that of halo 3

  3. Drastically increase the quiting penatly

  4. If possible sort out the host choosing system

  5. General tweaks here and there which you realise after about 10minutes playing the game, ie Sword/Shotty+ Sprint/Evade, AL.

  1. Take bloom out completely/ option to turn off.

  2. Bring back Theater partys of 4!

  3. Bring back the Halo 3 ranking system and ranked playlists.

  4. Change the melee system back to how it was in Halo 3.

  5. Nerf grenades.

  1. Strafing is almost non existent in this game. Please fix this.

  2. Make the Magnum the go to weapon for competitive Halo. More bullets, more range and at least a 4 shot kill.

  3. Longer fuse for nades.

1.Make the overshield look like it did in previous titles.

2.Put in a way to tweak bloom.

3.Fix melee.

Thats it for me.

I hope that 343 is looking at what people want in the update and they can make it happen. The ability to turn bloom on/off if not remove it would be amazing. I just want the Bloom removed for MLG an the DMR to be a four shot.

  1. fix bloom/ toggle on and off

  2. halo 2 or 3 ranking system

  3. fix melees / halo 3 melees

  4. allow groups to watch theatre

  5. make assists more consistent/ easier to get

1. Custom Games

  • The Custom Games Options needs to have the settings that was on Halo 3 but not on Reach e.g. Instant Kill and Regenerating Grenades.
  • The Infected shoud look like they were infected. The reason why is because it gives the infected more of a serious look. How will this give them a serious look:
    No Damage
    Minor Armour Damage
    Full Armour Damage
    Flood (That’s a doubt)
    These can be placed onto the Custom games options. If you wanted to do that kind of stuff for the infected, it’d make infection look and feel really badass!- In the Custom games options, you should be able to alter the speed of vehicles (including the amount of boost of a Covenant Vehicle) and the speed of the fire power. The hand held weapons can have the settings where you can change the weapon fire speed, just like you do with the Firefight Settings for the AIs.- In the Custom Games settings, you should be able to have the option if you want Bloom Turned on or Off.- When you have put on “Bottomless Clip”, this should also affect Vehicle Turrets that overheat so that they do not overheat. Also, vehicles should also fire as fast as they can without having to wait for their next shot to be fired e.g. Wraith.

2. Gameplay

  • For the people that have the Security Shoulder (with the blade) on their Spartan, they should be able to use the blade for Assassinations. The reason why is because it will feel like it was worth 275,000 CR.
  • DMR Bloom needs to be tweaked- Bloom needs to be fixed so that spammers will never win against users that time their shots.
  • Armor Abilities need to be anywhere in the map and here’s what needs to be done:
    Armor Lock should only be used for at least 3 seconds and it should take the same amount of time to regenerate as it does now. Armor Lock should NOT be able to EMP anything in it’s way. Users that pummel Armor Lock should not lose any of their shields and should not feel slower. The user should not be affected. The only thing is, when the user gets too close to the user in Armor Lock, the user without it will blow back a few feet depending on how close the user is.
    Drop Shield should not regenerate health for Multiplayer. This is because it gives a very unfair advantage for the user without the Drop Shield. Drop Shields can only regenerate health when you are playing Firefight.
    Or when the user drops down the shield when he or she has red health, the user will have their health regenerated but not for very long. Basically: The more health you regenerate, the more likely your drop shield will explode.
    Holograms should show a yellow dot for the allies and a red dot for the enemies. The reason why is because the Hologram is set to confuse the enemy and by doing this change, it will totally confuse the enemy.
    Jetpacks need to go as high as possible when the fuel for the Jetpack runs out. Also, the user in Jetpack should have the bloom full. This is because the bloom will give the user really unaccurate shots while in mid-air.
    Sprint needs to last longer for all characters and needs to be tweaked for Elites. This is because while you are Sprinting when you are an Elite, Sprint mode is about as fast as you are walking and Elites do not look right while they Sprint. Also, Sprint should not let you fire your weapon instantly and should not let you use your melee weapon instantly, they have to wait for their Sprint to end when they want it to and then they can fire their weapons and use their melee weapons.
    Evade should not let the user roll twice. Evade should only let the user roll once and wait for it to regenerate the same time as it does now.
    Active Camo should not be able to jam your own and your allies radar. This is because it gives you and your team an unfair advantage.
  • Assault Rifle needs to be beefed up against shielded enemies.
  • Plasma Repeater needs to be stronger against shields and slightly weaker against flesh.
  • Grenade Launchers should not be able to EMP anything in it’s way. When you trigger your own detonation with the Grenade Launcher, it should be able to explode like it does regularly. And also, the Grenade Launcher needs to be a little bit weaker.
  • Concussion Rifles blast radius is way too big and needs to be smaller.
  • Plasma Launchers need to move faster and need to lock onto enemies better.
  • Ghost needs to be a lot tougher than it is now.
  • Magnums need to be a 5 shot headshot kill (if bleedthrough was to be enabled) and they also need to be a lot weaker against vehicles.
  • Bleedthrough needs to be like Halo 3’s.
  • Melee System needs to be like Halo 3’s.
  • Warthogs need to feel a lot heavier. This is because right now, it can easily flip against a pistol.
  • Banshee Bombs need to be a lot weaker.
  • Banshees need to to tricks a lot slower than now
  • Banshees shouldn’t be able to fire when the user has just did a flip with a Banshee. When the user fires the bomb and just flips, there should be no speed difference of the Banshee Bomb.
  • Wraith Mortars need to be a lot weaker.
  • Scorpions firepower and fire rate needs to be a bit slower than it is now.
  • Plasma Repeaters target with Bottomless Clip shouldn’t be allowed to go out of screen and return back and do the same thing but faster.
  • Falcons should be able to carry passengers, but it shouldn’t be allowed to enter users inside with Objectives in their hands.
  • Falcon Turrets need to be a lot weaker than now.
  • Falcons should accelerate faster than now.
  • Snipers need to be a lot weaker against vehicles.
  • Players in the campaign shouldn’t be able to have Night Vision, they can only use torches that are on their weapons but do not last forever like Halo CE. Snipers can only be used for Night Vision just like Halo CE, this also affects the Multiplayer.
  • Bring back the ranked playlists e.g. 1-50 skill System like Halo 2 and 3.
  • Frag Grenades need to be a hell of a lot weaker.- Gunboats need to be placed and more vehicles need to be placed for Forge.
  • Powerups need to be around maps.
  • Powerup Active Camo needs to be like Halo 3’s Active Camo.
  • Halo: Reach movement that is 100% does not need the percentages to be above 100%. It needs to stay as 100% and it needs to be the same movement as Halo 3 and 2.
  • Spartan Laser needs to feel like a Spartan Laser like Halo 3’s Spartan Laser.
  • Sword Block needs to be removed.
  • All Melee Weapons should do a unique Assassination e.g. Gravity Hammer.
  • Falcons should be able to have Civilian Falcons and Grenade Launcher Falcons.
  • Shotgun needs to be as powerful as Halo 3’s Shotgun.
  • On Breakpoint, the Offense side does not need to have a Spartan Laser on their side. This is because it gives the defense team a very unfair advantage. Also, Breakpoint does not need to have two Plasma Launchers and does not need a Hammer.
  • There needs to be more vehicles on Reach.

Please give us a choice to switch the bloom on/off. That would make reach one of the best in the series imo.
