If I play a game for hours and hours I expect to better then the new kids that play. Why should they have a built in advantage? I took the time to look up your service record on battle.net, you have 219 multiplayer kills and only 32 matchmade games. I submit that you like the new playstyle because you were never very good at the old one. This is not an insult but I feel that the new playstyle has been dumbed down and made simple. They even failed to take the time to balance the damn game, for gods sake plasma pistols have always stunned vehicles but now you can just spawn with one and shutdown anything. If you like games that are fair to new players then I should point out that Halo 4 gives major advantages to players to play more but giving access to better weapons, loadouts, and perks.
The only advantage players in Halo 3 had was knowledge of maps and weapon spawns.
People buy new games because they like the old ones, and they expect the game to keep to its roots. Had I known how this game would turn out like this I would have never bought it.
