Pretty amusing. Can you read? I never mentioned ONCE in my post about anything "skill" related. There is a difference between "skill" and "tactics". For the record, I DO believe it takes skill to be a good H-4 player! I havn't said otherwise.

I'd be very happy with a "Classic" mode as well. To be honest, that is essentially what I was hoping for with H-4. Of course I don't speak for everyone, but I personally would have been completely satisfied with classic mulitplayer Halo just with a new "polished" look and feel.

As a true long time Halo fan, I absolutely agree with you 100%! I'm so happy that I'm not the only one who feels this way! I'm pretty disapointed in Halo 4's multiplayer so far. This just doesn't feel like Halo anymore. I personally feel like the fluidity of the multiplayer is gone. Halo of past was always about fast paced, quick reaction, go go go action! I like(d) that about Halo. I loved the mayhem (and I'm quite disapointed with the grenade nerfs as well!) There's no more IN YOUR FACE action! I feel now that the entire game is about "sit back, steady aim and fire your DMR/BR". If I want to play a game that's based on tactics, then CoD or Battlefield is what I would be playing at the moment. I agree that this feels too much like CoD! I'm sure there are plenty of gamers out there whol love this new version of Halo, and that's perfectly fine! But this is not Halo for me. Again, pretty dispointing considering how excited I was getting before the official launch. I mean the marketing that went into H-4 was superb! Foward Unto Dawn was amazing!! Too bad the "New Halo" doesn't live up to the hype imo anyways. :-(
