OMG Treason

Id prefer they had Firefight... SO much simpler than all this Spartan Ops stuff.

I dont like it I die way too much. With most of the 4v4 maps I die WAY to much like barely pulling a 2K/D when I should pull a 3 because the maps are just a cluster.

I wish for one of the Arctic BR skins, seeing as its my tool of destruction and I would like to jazz it up a bit so put me down for wishing for that.

Hello, Looking for a fun clan to play Halo/COD with? OMG is the clan for you! Requirements -Team player - Friendly -15 years or older -Not annoying - Optional change of GT to: OMG _____ We play Halo, COD, Rainbow Six, all that kind of stuff so send me a messgae on Live - OMG Treason

Something symmetrical and balanced. Flank routes but not so many they cant be monitored.

Incineration Cannon, I personally love this thing its so fun and has the potential to kill so many people at once. Also there is no feeling like the sound it makes followed by all the disintegrating bodies. /cringe

I think it can be MLG they just need to find the right settings.

Oh man, another one of these threads.

What?

Not cool dawg, you stole my thread... 3/10 is a little harsh dont you think?

This site offers somewhat of a spellcheck. Or maybe your browser does...

My friend who is pretty mediocre at Halo hopped in one, sat stationary and got a Killionaire I kid you not.

Indeed it is, and I completely forgot about the eternity you can be one shot for.

Kinda would be free Overkills and stuff with the amount of plasma pistols, stickys, and explosive ordnance.

I felt, I need to review every component of this game so buckle up and lets go for a ride into the Halo 4 world. Campaign- First off many will say this is one of the best Halo campaigns for awhile. However, I did not enjoy it it felt quite bland actually, like a all you can eat buffet promising everything by those who have eaten at it walking up then sighing with dissapointment when your greeted with a sea of assorted rice. Many people raved how fun the campaign was but it just didnt feel like Halo any more. Past game we are fighting on Earth and assorted places for humanities survival, and in this... well we are chasing some giant grey ******** with a hankering for genocide. I don't know I never really felt like the main antagonist for some reason felt weak, really this was the guy who brought people to there knee's when..*SPOILER ALERT* you can off the poor bugger with what was it a grenade? Kind of like Halo 3 were you fought some tiny floating ball whose only attack was really to yell at you while you turned it into a bubbling concoction of assorted metal and a light bulb Armed with the Destructoid 6000 the final boss fight in that game I felt was weak; in this game however they made it easier. I've never really been a fan of press A to overthrow the Evil overlord type of boss fights. I also never liked how much running around you have to do, In the first few missions it was like well find this button, okay you found the button now find it's 6 other sister outlets, because well why not right? I guess it just didn't fell like past Halo's fighting for survival in different areas and bathing in so many bodies of grunts you could probably fill up the Grand Canyon, and then a really big swimming pool full of their odd coloured blood. I'm not saying it was a bad campaign it was pretty good, it just didn't feel like the Halo I remember. Spartan Ops- I never really understood this, what exactly was wrong with Firefight? Atleast in Firefight I didnt lag, and bounce around like a drunken schizophrenic walking on Legos. I don't think I ever experienced any lag playing Firefight in previous Halo titles. In this "Spartan Ops" I can barely navigate as I walk to the left then continue to glide an extra 15 feet to the left like Bambi on bloody ice. Oh good it comes with a cinematic, that's very well done but it doesn't make up for the amount of repeated maps and missions with the same objectives. You think Crimson team would take a look around and say, Gee whiz we have been here before. The dialogue is also poorly written and honestly isn't that funny, its like they are trying to be funny but just stand up on stage like a deer in headlights, while Sarah Palmer makes some lame Egghead joke. I feel its un-neccesary and I have way more fun playing Firefight.. if only it was in this game. Forge- Id like to start off by saying I loved the Forge in Halo: Reach, all it needed was a bit more colour I made a map that I spent days on built around that one hidden cavern in the corner of Hemmorhage. I loved how there was massive selection, a intimidating buffet of options that are only limited by my ability to not come up with something to do. 343i however really kind of ruined it. They looked at the Halo Reach forge and kinda went like. Hmm, well they have had their fun now lets limit them to a tiny bland map. The main theme of this map? Grass. What bonerkills, why limit us like that. A fair portion of the community is made up of people who love the Forge. I thought the logical thing to do was to expand on the amazing thing that was Halo Reach Forge. But no lets kick over their castle of blocks, like the 343i pictured for their loadout selection screen was everyone would kind of use a plethora of different weapons. The Kindergarten bully who kicks over your block castle, then drinks your minute maid orange juice said 343i. Well, that's just what they did. Thumbs Down on the Forge 343i Matchmaking- What some would say is the backbone of the Halo series, something that always changes between each and every game. Those who hate it. complain about it, then are drowned by a giant Tsunami of people screaming ADAPT! So far I have been having a good time with the Multiplayer, but there are a few gripes I have. The DMR, what I know community however does not do that. It's human nature, the EASY WAY OUT. Dont tell me you havent encountered a corner camping Carl, and his companion corner camping Conrad who sit 100ft out from the action and pick you off in a matter of seconds. Yeah that's not balanced I get it the DMR= Long range, but it does that and close range a little too well. It overshadows weapon like the BR, and Carbine. Dont Xbox's come with Mics anymore, I mean how hard is it to plug it in and communicate with your team a bit. Playing objective based games with people who dont have Mic's and spend more time on there back than some turtle you just pushed over is about as fun as having my teeth removed with a pizza slicer. The Boltshot plain and simple needs to be looked at something is just off about it. While there at it they could look at some vehicle and weapon spawns. Scorpion Tank does not equal Gauss Hog and Banshee. All in All though I enjoy the multi player Im having fun Im sure lots of you are. I would give the game a solid. 8/10 It is fun but needs allot of tweaking. Any ways thanks for reading if you made it this far please leave a comment, or yell at me that works too. -Cheers -OMG Treason

I agree with you, Halo is about getting the edge and the community loves to exploit the edge.

I am glad you thought so. -Cheers

No, this is not another rant thread about how Halo 4 sucks, I actually think the game is quite good. But if I could tell you about my experience with the people who play the game itself it rhymes with pounding nails into my eyeballs. You see the game itself is quite enjoyable pretty well designed and I can see what they envisioned for the game variety. However that has not been achieved. Currently, what we have is a whole bunch of people spamming RT as fast as they can with their DMR. Now what I think 343i imagined was people would use the DMR as it's description implies to fill its long range niche. Sadly, it does do that but a little too well and it works close range too; the result is a whole bunch of soccer mom level gamers going "Ham". The gun itself isnt that overpowered, the aim assist and exploitation of it is, if you understand what I mean. I don't blame people I am in no way mad, its human nature to take the "Easy route" but sometimes at time such as this it gets out of hand. On the topic of exploiting things, another controversial topic is the Boltshot. The way I see it every gun has its niche, the Magnum cleaning up people, Plasma Pistol vehicles, the Boltshot smiting people with the wrath of Hades. Sorry, I mean CQC combat. At first I was like no this gun doesn't really need a nerf but then I figured out how to use the thing and it is too good. It is also really rage inducing. For example, I was on a nice kill streak with my UNSC Shotgun, up to a triple kill going for the overkill on the gentlemen coming around the corner. LOL NOPE BOLTSHOT I even shot first at near point blank only to pop his shields. Again this is human nature an easy way to get kills and what I like to call fake being good. A poser if you will. I feel it could use a bit of a range nerf or ammo consumption nerf. It may not seem that good until you encounter an experienced user. Team mates.. oh boy how I love the brain dead blokes I get paired up with to blast away at the enemy team. Quite often I will go to drive the warthog and the bloke in the back of my Hog seems more interested on gunning down passing butterfly's while we proceed to be turned into smoking hot scrap metal by a nearby Spartan Laser. I know the old saying, DO NOT PLAY WITH RANDOMS well sometimes I like to play by myself and it would be nice to really on a team mate that doesn't consist of wheel chair bound cross eyed hobbit s rolling around on the battlefield. Playing objective game types with people who spend more time on their back than their feet, and don't have a mic is about as much fun as having my teethe picked witha pizza slicer but you get the point. All in All, I think it is a great game its the community who ruins it by exploiting it and acting like morons. Any fun on-line gaming used to have I feel has been shot down and not by like light gunfire I mean by like a Air guided ball shrivelling missile shot from space. As people scream into their mic's telling their mom what they don't want for dinner this evening. Or the team mate who immediately screams when you don't do one thing they wanted you to do. There are nice people out there but they seem hard to come by. To 343i if you are reading this, you did a pretty good job on your first game in the Halo franchise, and I anxiously await your next game. P.S. Before you scream oh you just suck your so lolbutthurt adapt noob. MY service recordhttp://www.halotracker.com/H4/OMG%20Treason Cheers, -OMG Treason

I think the DMR should have its ROF tuned down a bit, because it is OP get shot by the team at once and your obliterated due to being slowed down when shot at. Lower its scope effectiveness range, and increase the BRs not so their even but rather a bit closer together. The DMR ruines wide open maps because of that ability.

After seeing this thread I now use the DMR more.

Playing games for fun, and to have a good time doing it is really how games should be played. Lots of Youtube commentators play to have fun not be L33T PR0 MLG; they make money and have fun playing. It reminds me last Christmas I downloaded a game called Rainbow Six Vegas 2 with some MS points. I sucked sooo bad at it, but the people on it where super fun to play with and no one cared about how good they did because the game doesnt even track your K/D unless you actually choose to play ranked games.(Yes RBSV2 did have MLG aswell though) For such an old game I had never had so much fun in the entire time I played that game. Whatever happened to that kind of gaming fun. As a matter of fact thats what Im going to play tomorrow.

Mauler.. I really miss those. Anyways awhile back someone suggested a needle shotgun, I think that would look really cool and be really fun to use.

Actually there was MLG in Reach.

Maybe it could be 4 shot at a close range but have dmg dropoff from medium-long range.
