I realize that SWAT and Grifball will be added soon, but what of the other fun playlists? I realize that some of these might be added, but here's a list of some that I thought were quite fun, and should be added: Assault - CTF is fun and all, but bombs make everything better. Besides, invading an enemy base with a bomb is pretty fun imo. Snipers - Everybody loves using a sniper...and if they don't, they should. And if they should, team snipers is a great place to learn. It's a win win situation. SWAT Magnums? - I don't know if this will be added with SWAT, but SWAT Magnums helps get a lot of daily challenges, along with the new pistol commendation in Halo 4, I think it would be quite nice. Also, the pistol feels quite different, and it'd be a nice place to get better with it, obviously. Invasion - I know not everyone agrees with me on this, but I and thousands of other people thought Invasion was pretty dang fun. No, we can't do Spartans vs. Elites like in Reach, but the War Games are supposed to be simulations if I'm correct? If so, then you could just have team 1 and team 2, and one team has either a Covenant set of weapons, or a Forerunner set of weapons. More than likely Covenant because they can blend easier with loadouts, as there are more weapons. This even fits in the idea of the war games simulations, giving the Spartans a chance to see what invading a Covenant ship or Forerunner structure would be like. I think it would be cool, but that's me. Everyone has their own opinions. Rumble Pit - Or something... I just want to play Juggernaut... lol. Regicide just isn't the same as the overshielded, hammer-waving maniac that just wrecks everything. And even my friend wants to play some FFA King of the Hill, Slayer, etc... BTB Heavies! - Heavies is always loads of fun, why not!? Action Sack - ESPECIALLY with the new throwing-the-ball idea. That opens up SO many ideas! Basketball, 500 Halo-style, etc.. Alpha Zombies - Nice try, Flood. SWAT Objectives - SWAT Potato, 3 Plots, Stockpile, are actually fun sometimes. Why not? Rocket Race - I know I'm not the only one who thought that Rocket Race on Hemmorhage was a frickin blast. Or even Paradiso, for that matter. Throw it on Ragnarok and BAM. Those are the ones I miss the most. Any chance of them coming back? Any others I missed? And no, I'm not some kid who plays just to mess around. I was an avid SWAT, BTB, and Invasion player (until THFE maps were brought it... no offense, I just had too many bad games), and now play Regicide, Dominion, and BTB mainly. It's just nice to step out of the competitive zone for a while, ya know?

They should let us play Hot Potato, exploding oddball's solves most of those problems and all the issues with camping. I realize that camping is the best, smartest thing to do, but when every hallway to get to the guy will the ball is guarded by a scattershot, sword, boltshot, sticky detonator, etc., the game gets quite frustrating.

I have to agree with a few things. Ammo - I never used to run out of ammo with the DMR, but now it's like everytime I have any kind of important spree, I'm fresh out of ammo. The variety thing - definitely hoping that a LOT gets added, not just SWAT and Grifball like most people want. Perks - yea, sleight of hand, blast shield, scavenger ... oh wait, nevermind. I mean dexterity and all that jazz. Anyways, Those are pretty annoying too, giving big edges to people in certain situations. Vehicles - Mantis is so cheap, Wraith somehow got better imo, and the Ghosts are SO ANNOYING. There's like, 50 in every game type wtf. Anyways, Scorpion, Banshee, and Gauss Hog are all just shadows of what they used to be.. /: I actually like the sprint, however. And stopping power, as you put it. Yes, the baywatch runs are annoying.

I do miss Forge World... some things are really cool, like the trait zones, but all in all Reach's forge was a little better imo. Also, my biggest pet peeve, I hate not having that "click in the left joystick and move the building blocks slower" thing (I don't know what to call it...lol)

Dang... do you think when SWAT's added instant respawn won't be there? lol. I wish, but from that it sounds like they're not even in the game. That's awful :/

Why are medals so easy now...? If you like, shoot someone in the foot, you're already elligible for an assist. I've never gotten an assist spree, and now I get wingman all the time. My friend wasn't even playing for a whole game of ctf, and he got a flag assist. wtf? It's a little easy.. medals used to mean something. Also, why aren't sniper sprees, laser sprees, etc. medals anymore? Kinda frustrating /:

Well I played a couple games, and it just didn't bring me to that screen where it gives you the experience, so I just kinda hoped that it didn't. And yea, I hear ya, it's almost impossible not to hit the cap getting 5000 xp per game haha

I have like 25 more double experience games, and hit the online credit cap. Do I waste double experience games now with each game I play? Or can I keep playing without consuming all of my double games?

It's been so long, forgot it was 3. Still doesn't change the fact that a shield and human body don't have any similarities, and that 4 shots is a reasonable amount.

Clearly you can't read? I'm talking about a shield. Shoot a spartan in the foot four times and their shields are gone. Shoot them in the head four times and their shields are gone. It's always been like that, and probably always will.

And you're not part of a band wagon? I like the game, but I don't like a LOT of the things in it. Don't give me any of that if you don't like it don't play it crap, because we're all Halo fans here (hence why we're on a 343 forum). I'm hoping things like damage ratios get fixed (godly boltshot, needler, that promethean assault rifle thing, sniper, incineration cannon, etc.), and the awful killcams that shouldn't be there in the first place, and quite a few other things. I'm not going to stop playing, I still think it's a good game, just it could be sooooo much better. ...and step one should be just getting rid of Flood in general. And all of your points are pretty dumb. 3 Makes sense, but that's about it. Also, knowing the background behind the story has NOTHING to do with the gameplay itself.

But, a shield has no similarities to a human body. Shooting a person in the head, and shooting a shield in the...shield, are two different things. A shield doesn't have weakpoints that should be targeted, unless somehow you could target whatever is giving the armor its power in the first place, buttttt, you can't do that in this game, and won't ever be able to.

-Flood needs to just disappear. -Why are automatic weapons sooooooo much stronger? I got sick of AR's just owning me all the time, started using one and just wrecked BR's and DMR's all the time. -Sniper is OP. -Needler is God-sent. -Almost every Armor Ability is useless. Hardlight shield is tolerable sometimes. Thruster pack sounded cool... but it just isn't. Jetpack goes nowhere. Promethean Vision's interesting, but not all too beneficial. all that jazz. -Oddball's frickin awesome... but so cheap at the same time lol. Grifball's gonna be amazing. -Plasma grenades weaker? Sticking a vehicle does next to nothing. -Banshee is soooo lame now it's not even funny. Same with Scorpion.... easily dealt with with plasma pistol... well easier than before at least. -I even hate the radar. I have a 66 inch tv and can still hardly see if people are above or below me. 20/20 vision my whole life, and sit about 5 feet from the tv. -Hate the rocket launcher, although the rocket hog's pretty cool now at least. -Flood still needs to drop off the face of the earth. -Loveeee the new armors! Although some did look better in Reach, a lot still look WAY cooler. -BR is annoying... having shields, but still being one trigger pull away from death. -Scattershot should be in Flo-- ...nvm. Should be in a newly added Infection/Alpha Zombies gametype. -Commendations don't always make sense... like Exterminator or w/e? Don't get that one. These are just some recurring thoughts of mine. I do like the game itself, just annoying sometimes. Flood doesn't deserve a gametype of it's own. jus sayin. Agree or disagree? Let the butthurt commence.

Idk, I hate the fact that you can have shields while facing a BR, then you just die. At least with the DMR you know when to run.

Although I don't agree with quite a few of the minor details, WELL SAID!

I have numerous complaints, but the killcams aren't one of them. The sniper has always given away your "hiding spot" quite vividly.

I LOVEEED Sword Base and Pinnacle haha best two maps they ever had. Dumb that they're gone. Alpha Zombies is pretty amazing too, but Zombie Ghosts is a joke. You can't even teabag because of the camo! The new haunted maps...The only tolerable one is powerless, solely because you can hide in a dumpster.

I don't see how people even get that high haha. I thought I played a lot, but I only have a little over 40,000 kills... it's weird to see people who have over 150,000 haha

That wasn't really worth it...lol like, 17,000 credits or something right? I mean, LASO's are fun don't get me wrong... but still.

If you're already stuck with a plasma grenade or from the launcher, you will still die even if you use armor lock after TU. I think it's a nice addition.

I don't mean to sound rude, but what's your source? When I contacted them they said it more than likely will work. "Unfortunately at this stage Microsoft are unwilling to confirm whether the game will be region free or not so we cannot guarantee it however we are confident that it will be fine. From what we have gathered in the past nearly all third party games work fine across all platforms including the previous Halo titles." It's not a guarantee, but it's pretty close to it.

Killcams are good and bad at the same time imo, but I guess it'll be nice to try it out. They were always nice in COD, and will definitely help with campers. I'm not worried, as I shoot and move all the time, with the exception of Living Dead and the occasional Hemmorhage. I also read other people comparing COD sniping and Halo sniping.... that's ridiculous. The similarities are slim to none. It's interesting to see how fast someone can quickscope you on COD, but it'll be boring watching someone following your spartan around for a minute and finally getting that shot in Halo lol. My opinion. Sitting in an unknown spot in snipers...well that's the dumbest idea I've heard of in a while. You kill me in a game of snipers twice from the same spot, and you better expect a bullet flying into your head or dang close to it in about 6 seconds. Killcam's shouldn't matter in team snipers.

I personally think these are awesome, as I'm getting my Limited Edition Halo 4 from Mighty Apes just so I can get the Raptor and Pulse armor skins, Locus helmet skin, and Assassin and Bonebreaker emblems (not to mention after a Mighty Apes discount, and the difference in rates between USD and NZD, you actually pay less than buying it anywhere else). But they should have put different color schemes and different armor sets for each armor skin (like a gallery of different examples) so that people actually knew what they were getting. Most people don't like the brown Web armor skin because they see the armor and just don't like it. Same with the Forest from Gamestop. My personal favorite is the Circuit (one on the right of the picture at the top), and I mighttt try to buy the code on eBay after the game comes out (I'm sure people will sell those).

What medals are you most proud of? For me, it would have to be my first Be the Bullet I got the other day (FINALLY), Red Menace (still no sunburst... game always ends too quick :/ ), Infection Spree, Invincible (highest I've gotten...), 17 Skyjacks, 4 Perfections and 7 Exterminations. Also, if you've gotten a Killionaire...how'd you do it? Lol I can't even get to Killtastrophe. Or how did you get an Unfrigginbelievable? Every time I come close I die and feel like all hope is lost xD

I just liked two things about it. One was the fact that if you were in a DMR fight with someone and they weren't the greatest with headshots, you knew how many more shots you could take before actually dying, being the difference between life and death (this happens to me alllllll the time, as I often get shot from behind and have to turn around and make up for lost time). Second being for specifically SWAT, when someone decides to either camp in a small spot or run at you instead of shooting you, if you don't have time to take the headshot, you could at least get a pummel in so they're only a two shot kill later on. Yea, regenerating health and shields makes it easier for sprees and more multi-kills and such (well, easier gameplay in general) but it also adds a certain challenge to the game. Same with bloom, plenty of people saying it should be gone, but it's wayyyyyy too easy to get kills without it. This is only my opinion, of course. But everyone's entitled to their own and I certainly see why a lot of people don't like the health bar.
