where is the video. I MUST SEE PROOF SIR!!!!

I have found that the best way to find some people who want to use teamwork is, when u see a rare mic appear, talk to them chat them up, party with them and go into team slayer pro. By doing this i have developed around a 15 or 20 friend deep friend list with people that enjoy messing around in casual games but when we want to turn it on in team slayer pro the communication is glorious. playing adrift holding down an open bay with 4 other people is a blast. teamwork is not dead, its just lost in the woods, and you need to find it.

only problem is now i gotta start using guns i dont like. or keep using the DMR since i maxed that out already. the carbine? yuck what a terrible weapon.

for those who played before the 20th you will get all the specilizations unlocked. im hoping that sometime today technically, since its not 3 yet and thats when the challanges reset and all that they will be released. i hit lvl 70 and all im doing is just working on my KD now. getting some weapon proficiences as close as i can to completion without completing them.

Hey im just looking for a batch of guys that are consistently online. im lvl 66 and im starting to get tired of playing in games where im the only one with a mic / trying to communicate. Just want a group of guys i can play with consistently and competitively. I also want to play some more team slayer pro but thats near impossible with only 1 person with a mic. my gamertag is nightfiree21

i mean think about this. in halo 3 if somebody left your team, you were toast. you were stuck playing a match at 3v4. it was brutal. Think about it from the other perspective of guys who have lost a player. They dont want to play a match 3v4 i know i dont want to. if i get thrust into a game thats already underawy i make the best of it. i try and turn the game around. U make it sound like every match you go for is one already in progress. try staying in the lobby after you play a game. boom problem solved. you dont want to wait around? then get stuck with the chance of being put into a partial game. Thats my 2 cents

So i have several roomates that like to play on my account and play halo 4. I think its great that they want to play and i swap out with them every once and a while when im playing. Heres my beef, i like to maintain a decent marking of my skill level. i want my service record to show my proper KD which should be something around a 1.5 but my roomates consistantly go 3 and 20 when they play. There are several things that can fix this issue. One i could play split screen, but i play on a TV truly only suitable for 1 person. So thats out of the option. 2 i could have an alternate xbox live account but that doesnt seem logical at all cuz i dont want to spend the extra money. 3 they could introduce something like social slayer. for me this is something that could totaly solve my issue. There could be seperate socail slayer stats and then there could be my wargames stats. In truth i pray they put something like this in especially once they introduce the true ranking system. I would never let my roomates play anymore and than i would be getting so much ******* flack from those mongrols about wanting to play. I hope that this will be implemented before the ranking system comes out next year but if not it HAS to be implemented once it does come out. Is their some sort of solution to prevent having my friends tarnish my KD and win to loss ratio? i can maintain it over a 1 but geez is it a challange.

can you show me the link to where they talk about this

realisticly whats the point. theres so much cool armor and stuff to work towards in halo 4. what do u get in boa2 that u dont in halo 4. i mean same ranking system. some new weapons. and u die at twice the pace with not much skill involved in manuvering ur char or teamwork. not sure its even worth picking up considering i have a lot of things left to achieve in this game

can you site where you got point number one about ranking system? ide like to read up on that.

you have to understand how to use it. ile give u an example. the other day i was comming up on a guy. i noticed he was going to melee me so i threw up my shield for 1 to 2 seconds blocked the melee and had a significant shield advantage. It blocks grenades as well so if u every get stuck in a situation where you get caught with a nade at your feet, block it. it blocks explosives. its really quite handy if you use it to get out of sticky situations and go around corners. its more of a defensive oh **** button. use it for quick reflex blocks or use it to retire around a corner. i love the thing

You guys are nuts. I have a few things to say to this post but let me start it off by saying your nuts. What would be the point of comming out with a new game, A NEW ONE, and making it the same as halo 3. Halo 2 was different than halo 3. Halo 2 was significantly different than halo 1. I have my gripes about the ranking system. I think there should be something similar to what halo 2 and 3 had but thats something that can be implemented later. I got faith in 343. 1.) The lack of variety. The games been out for like what 4 days? whos to say they wont introduce new playlists perodiocally over time or even something like a weekly playlist. Its hard to say there is a lack of playlists when the games only been out for a few days. Yes they had plenty of time to develop playlists but maybe adding in new ones over time is their plan. 2.)IDK about you but i rarley run out of ammo. my DMR may occasionally come close to being out of ammo but thats only if i have been reckless and was firing rounds at a corner hoping to catch somebody in my croshairs. I use the perk where you can have two primary weapons and so i have a dmr and an assault rifle and that really helps me conserve ammo as i have an effective mid to close range weapon and an effective long range one. Also theres a perk for picking up grenades which i geuss goes hand in hand with your complaint about perks. Yes i think perks are a bit CoD ish but they are pertant to Halo. I mean its really quit silly to compare this game at all to CoD. I have 2 TVs in my living room and my buddy plays CoD and i play halo 4. We switch from time to time and its night and day how insanly different the two games are. I like perks. I think they are neet. I like having the ability to increase the blast size of my nades considering i feel the radius is quit small as of now. 3.) Ya the mantis is pretty brutal. i think it could use some tweaking considering its near impossible to kill with regular guns. Ghosts are everywhere but seriously how easy are they to kill. I agree the mantis and wratih need tweaking. One of a couple points i think ur pretty accurate on. 4.)I didnt play much reach. maybe only one or two times with friends but i did play halo 3 a week before halo 4 release (which was a mistake consideirng they changed all the controls on me). That game was crazy slow paced compared to this. I mean its a bit dull when i have to run across a huge open map at the speed of a normal marine. Shudnt a spartan be a little faster. 5.)i really never noticed i was being slowed down. haha. maybe its just me. 6.) Amen to this. ive been getting really tired of joining a game, schooling some kids in the first 30 seconds, and then sitting and waiting for somebody to fill their spot after they left. they need to "punish" the player like the used to in halo 3. remember that? "do you want to leave" "yes punish me i am a bad teammate" haha i always liked that. 7.)its actually usually a bad option to take the gun every time. Ive noticed that the over shield and the damage enhance are REALLLLYYY awsome. the damage enhance durns the DMR into a dang sniper. just a tip from a guy whos almost 50, dont go the gun every time. 8.)if thats really the case just make ur own custome game you can do the same thing that we used to do in halo 3. the honor system. oh ur dead. go switch teams. find some friends and put together ur own infection game. i think its a really nice change of pace from blowing peoples heads off with the DMR. i play it maybe 1 every 7 games and its nice to have something pretty different. Oddball also helps me in times of playlist boredom. 9.) there are neutral weapon spawns at the beginning of every game. the sniper always spawns in the back of the blue teams base and the top of that building for red teams base in complex. the scatter shot is always downstairs in the center on haven. There is a effeciancy? idk what they are called that u get when u reach 50 where u know when the next weapon spawn is comming and where. thats all i got. i love the game. i understand some of the points ur putting out there but this game is great fun once u really start to get the hang of it. the shield for example is fantastic. i have made some silly things happen with the quick twitch of my shield. promethean vision. WHAT A DELIGHT on adrift. oh man i cant tell u how many kills thats nabbed me. Its a different game yes, but just give um some time to mold it into the experience that everybody wants. its been not even a week yet.
