Well i think it is good they are bringing certain things from halo 3 and maybe 2 i suppose? All fine to me, but Halo 4 needs its own heartbeat, like Reach has, although i did not like how they made maps + armor abilities, it just made me feel..like..really? I got used to this and now can handle things like that, although jetpack still annoys me on countdown or uncaged ugh. I have faith 343i will doa good job in fixing these issues, especially what they said for "building new maps with competetive gameplay in mind". Either they have fixed the armor abilities around to help make the game faster and more balanced, or made the maps better, or both. I really don't have a problem with armor abilities anymore, but it will always be nice if they were pick up again.
