Personally if the drop in/out system works than I have no problem with people quitting. if I am stuck on a lame team and have to carry them, I will quit too. No point in me doing all of the work. If something happens outside of xbox (real life) than you should not be punished for quitting. If you are stuck with lame players than you should be able to quit. In CoD, if I am losing or carrying the team and losing I quit, its not hard for other players to join the team I quit and not hard for me to search for another game. The whole point is to have fun, if the game sucks, than leave. I hate when i get paired against a stacked team and they dont do the objective and just kill, it makes the game no fun, so i quit. I dont care

I have never heard of Tritton, Turtle Beach I know and love...any news on the reliability on this Tritton brand?

The SoAT are not that strong of a group anymore after the schism and peace with Humans. The rest of the Elites are following the Arbiter and their old ways before the prophets corrupted their beliefs. I dont think the SoAT will kill the Arbiter, he is the freaking Arbiter. Also just like in HAlo CE where the Chief was on the ring, the majority of the game will be on Requiem, it probablt wont be until the very end that Chief leaves Requiem

I can and do watch the sky. However it is my personal opinon that Halo was fun before the jet pack and would be just as much fun without it. The only AA I use is sprint.

I really wish they would just get rid of it personally...Halo was fun before it and will be fun without it again

Agreed visor color options would be cool. I also like the armor skin thing too that they have added

Well with custom loadouts and a variety of maps, who knows how the flow of the games will go. I am sure just as Victory said, most people will use some sort of precision weapon as a primary. But some fo the maps so far look like they have a good mix of mid range and cq to them. Like all Halo titles, it will depend on how YOU like to play. I still love ths hotgun for most maps, but will use the DMR if the enemy is far away, which is common sense. The DMR and BR were OP, but 343i said all weapons will be more balanced. Personally they need to take the DMR out, but thats just me.

I am sure 343i will find some way of handeling quitters. The drop in/out system will help, but it will not fix everything. 343i has learned from Bungie and past Halo games, they will figure it out

The new sniper rifle sounds like a big DMR in my opinion, it needs a different sound personally

Agreed, Halo has always had comic relief from Grunts, to Johnson, to the oracle. There has always been a bit of comic relief in Halo. And no one is forcing you to wear an armor effect if you dont like them for whatever reason. if they give your position away use that to your advantage on someone wearing them. Dont like them, dont use them, as easy as that. I like the idea of burnt or battle worn armor effects for halo 4, that would look cool and still make sense

Dang reticle bloom is too big again...ugh they need to go back Halo 3 bloom/spread

Frankie and 343i already said it will act more like a 'boost' than a flying aparatus. @Ryu: Well seeing as Hardlight shield and other abilities are not in all loadouts, I could see 343i taking the jetpack out of certain maps. Even now in reach, the jet pack is not in every map option

Defualt setting seems to be the way to go for sure. I still wish they would let us customize the controller scheme

Like I have posted in a couple other threads, I am guessing that Halo 4 is going to mirror Halo CE, the Covenant 'Storm' are the main bad guys, the Prometheans are bad at first but join Chief when they realize he is not trying to take the hidden weapon.

I really hope it is like the Halo 3 SL. The reach SL was weak and more of a beam, where as the Halo 3 SL was like a laser blast.

The system in Reach was not bad at all. However, when the Reach system brings up the same map but different game types it is useless.

I love when I die and confetti shoots out lol

@gtyunit: Call of Duty borrowed aspects from GoldenEye on N64 and Perfect Dark, and they borrowed aspects from games that came before them. Halo/343i borrowing aspects from Call of Duty is not a bad thing, it is the way a series survives and grows. There is no need to use foul language on these forums so please stop.

I have a feeling that Jet Pack will not be a part of the loadouts for certain maps to handle "map flow." Seeing as the loadouts will change from playlist and maps, it may not be on all maps and in all playlists

well seeing as Halo CE was a direct translation of Durandal and 343i is essentially mirroring Halo CE, I wouldnt be surprised if Halo 4 mirored some aspects of Durandal/ Halo CE

I agree Ryu, the community spoke too late when they aired their opinions on the jet pack.

@Viva: Yes the jet pack is returning and yes it has been seen in several videos. The first video that showed the jet pack was in Spartan ops and the most recent was in the shotgun video. 343i never said it was not returning, they never said anything about it actually. They only said that thruster is a mix of evade and jet pack. As you can see from the video below, the thruster pack is a quick burst in a single direction, while the jet pack is a gradual boost up. http://n4g.com/news/...eath-from-above http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uiEiJmmqdtY

I actually like the way the Spartan Laser sounds and looks. It seems more like a laser blast from Halo 3, than a laser beam from Halo Reach. And the sniper rifle sounds like a beefed up DMR.

Right...the game disc is indeed region locked. But it does appear that the DLC is not like the came cards which are also region locked. So in essence you would have functioning dlc, but a non functioning game. I would suggest going on ebay when the game comes out and getting the dlc from ebay. People are already putting armor skins up for sale.

Exactly Ryu, the jet pack in Halo 4 was stated by 343i to be just a boost this time aorund. So it will not allow someone to fly around, it will allow them to boost to a high point and thats about it. Besides as Ryu pointed out if someone is jet packing they are an easy target, so boosting will also eliminate the big target in the sky hopefully
