I think that an assisted suicide medal should be in order. This in itself is a pretty self explanatory medal, shoot an enemy, have them run off the edge, and voila! "Assisted Suicide" -MaGIIXz

I like your idea . Very simple, yet effective. (Great thinking) P.S There is no word in any language that can express my hate for people on my team that have betrayed me in Halo: 3, when they kill me right as i'm about to receive my perfection. -MaGIIXz

Welcome to the forums Aura . I too expect to see Zero-Bloom in Halo: 4. The only advice that I can really give out, play TU ZB or MLG, if you really want no bloom. Just a quick note, there has been bloom in every Halo game so far, although it is not as noticeable in previous games compared to Reach. I agree with you too, there are a lot of DMR spammers out there who get lucky sometimes, this needs to change in our favor -MaGIIXz

Yep, dedicated servers should be 343i's next step forward on the Halo franchise. The only foreseeable problem with dedicated servers are more fees to play matchmaking. Like Battlefield 3 for example, they have introduced an "online pass", which is an extra ten dollar fee, so that they can maintain their servers. -MaGIIXz

First, just to address your point Carts. Halo: Reach does have power-ups, have you played the MLG map variants? Go ahead and try them out, find the power-ups yourself . Code, I can see that you are a frustrated Halo fan that was expecting Reach to be more Halo 2 - Halo 3ish. I have contemplated whether or not AA's are a good addition to the franchise or just something that players see as a step backwards. I can offer my knowledge on this topic, most people that I have met in Reach are fine with AA's as they offer a more tactical feel on the game. Then there are other people who I have met that dislike them because they ruin the flow of the game. It really is a debatable topic (that already has been debated a ton of times), but it is all personal preference. Then, the health bar. If you have played Halo since it first was released (Halo: CE), then you would know that there was a health bar back then. I do not seem to have a problem with the health bar, the only thing that I do seem to dislike is the no bleed-through aspect. Anyways, I feel that Reach is a game that you can choose to enjoy, it is not morally determined to be bad or good. It is what you make it -MaGIIXz

I don't really think that you raise a valid point, the beacons are always there. I remember my first time playing ODST, I had some troubles locating some of the beacons but I eventually found them. There's not much anything that I can do to help you, try finding a guide as to where the beacons are located. Good luck! -MaGIIXz

They seem to be actually listening to their communtiy now, which is a great thing. Also, the supposed name for "Black Ops 2", is Iron Wolf. According to many people on the internet (which probably is all a big guess), Iron Wolf will be the new campaign story because Reznov's secret squad was called Iron Wolf. Anyways I agree with Tropical, I will not be buying the next CoD, instead save up for a Halo 4 legendary edition . -MaGIIXz

I believe not, although there is a member ranking/color system here. -MaGIIXz

First off, welcome to the forums and thanks for sharing your opinion on the ranking system and what it should be in Halo 4. Your ideas seem great and expansive, although Halo: Waypoint allows players to do all this and more. I'm thinking that 343i will stick to what their fan-base supports, which was the old Halo 3 ranking system. Now, they will probably add on this and expand on it, but I really like your idea of being able to do what Halo: Waypoint does, right in the game lobby. -MaGIIXz

Well be sure to expect a "booting system", in Halo 4 for sure. It makes the game so much better, even though there are games when people try and get you to team-kill them by stripping your shields in hopes that you will kill them. I think 343i should probably find a way to try and allow people to boot other people for constant friendly fire. Also, if you were referring to the "banning system" (after quiting/being booted, from a lot of games, you were no longer allowed to play Reach online for 5 mins, 10 mins, 15 mins, etc..) Then I am not quite sure, for one it is good for people that want to play the game with team mates that will stick through the whole game. On the other hand, people that had un-reliable internet connections were getting frustrated because they would disconnect and then be banned. So 343i might put that back in, but they might not. -MaGIIXz

Pretty great ideas you have there! Great job being creative! I really like the forge-able enemies idea, I think it would be great to actually be able to build who you would be fighting. I suppose it could only be implemented in firefight, but none the less, superb idea :)77 -MaGIIXz

I personally think NAY! First of all, the energy sword is a close range weapon that has always been a "one-hit", kill at close range. I don't really think that it should be tampered with as I found it to be a great weapon in the game. It seems pretty self explanatory to me, if you see somebody with a sword (close range), you should be thinking logically. Should I rush in there and try to hope that he doesn't slice me? OR, should I throw some grenades in there and then wait for me to be sure that I can kill him, and then pick up the kill. The idea of a sword block gives the opponent the option to run in there and block the sword, then finish with a quick and easy headshot. To me, this seems a bit unfair to the wielder of the energy sword. Secondly, I don't think that combusting plasma is able to be deflected by armor. This to me seems ridiculous, the idea of blocking burning plasma with your arm? So definitely nay for sword block, thank you 343i for removing it -MaGIIXz

Wow. This is a very cool idea that I had never heard of, i'm sort of surprised. I agree with you that this would be a great option to have, but I forsee many errors accompanying this. I'm presuming that there would be quite a bit of bugs/glitches that people would find and maybe exploit. No popular game like Halo, CoD, or the Battlefield series have introduced this yet, now you've got me thinking... Why haven't they? -MaGIIXz

Yeah, don't get your hopes up. 343i said that they will probably not be releasing a beta, as it would interrupt their current plans for Halo 4. Now, that means for sure that there will not be a Halo 4 open beta. It probably means that there will not even be a beta like the Halo 3 one. Instead if they even have the time for a beta, it will be short and probably managed only by 343i employees. -MaGIIXz

Sorry, I don't quite get who you are trying to contact. Can you please define that person more clearly, so we can help you? -MaGIIXz

Definitely Guardian. I like this map because of all the 1v1's i've played on this map and won . Also because of the ability to move around the map so quickly because of all the jumps that are made possible on this map. -MaGIIXz

Sorry to be a bit negative but I must point out a few things. First off I would just like to say is that if you are going to make or try to make an "official" Halo 4 thread, please try to use better spelling and grammar (just like Elite pointed out). Next, try not to leave so many options, instead just ask people just to post what they want to see/what they don't want to see. Finally, feel free if you want to try making another one keeping these suggestions in mind. I look forward to seeing it and reading it, good luck! -MaGIIXz

I totally agree with Kill the King, Halo (In my opinion), has and always will have the best campaign story EVER. Even though campaign is a great feat in Halo, I must say that I enjoy matchmaking the most. I have played online from Halo CE, and it was the most fun, and entertaining thing about this game to me. Another aspect that I would like to comment on is forge, this is another great addition to the game. The ability to build your own Halo maps, Halo art, or anything, is just great. -MaGIIXz

I personally think that this movie will generate a lot of revenue. Now, I'm not sure if I will go see this movie or not... But it would be a very cool thing to check out, especially for the 100th anniversary. -MaGIIXz

PHEW... This saved me so much time and effort . Thanks so much for the guide, I found it to be super helpful. -MaGIIXz

Hey, this looks pretty amazing! I can't wait for some of them to come out, is there any chance that you might know what these games might cost when they are released? I'm estimating about 800+, can you confirm this Spectral? -MaGIIXz

Cupman, don't worry. You definitely are not banned from Xbox Live, or Halo: Reach. If you were, you would be specifically told so. It's exactly as Spectral and Luke are pointing out. It is a problem with the Microsoft Servers, it's been happening to a ton of people. Don't worry, they will be fixing it soon so you can enjoy some more Halo -MaGIIXz

's live talk show, but...

Well welcome to the forums! First off, I think that this would be in your best interest to read : http://www.343industries.org/forum/topic/5807-message-to-all-new-members/. Have fun! -MaGIIXz

Hey Aztec, I have also "conquered" it . I found it a great map, I was only confused on one part in the beginning. Where you had to avoid the man-cannon and jump over the pit of mines. The map is great, especially for your first time! I really don't know what to say other than that. I would like to say "define" the correct path more clearly, but a part of me thinks that that's just me being directionless & impaired. If you would like to see the video of me beating it, http://www.bungie.ne...O%20o%20MaGIIXz. Keep up the great work, -MaGIIXz
