I am heavily in favor of the system prior to Reach. You should earn what you get. If credits are still somehow part of the system, it should be a byproduct of the game. Chasing credits for specific goals will just encourage credit chasing, in my opinion. The match making play should be about winning being the ultimate goal. Personal achievements in a game like kills, sprees, and the like should be balanced for each game type. Team play, kills and assists weigh heavy, but are of less value than a team win. FFA would be geared different for the obvious reason and so on down the line. Team play should truly encourage team play, especially in the ranked format.

I have to hear whats around me, I play in surround sound to help that. With an off option in settings or where ever, I'm cool with it.

Good point. The facility that developed and created Spartans in is now long gone, so no new enhancements would be possible, unless........

stuffed with artichokes and red

Remember there was a major rift taking place during the Halo 3 campaign with the Covenant. You are also right about the Flood being a temporary allie to save themselves. If there was this ideal that the Flood had a sense of self preservation, maybe the Forerunners will see this and....who knows. The Forerunners were not the enemy, remember. The rings were to eliminate the infestation of the Flood. If they are now willing, as of H3, to make alliances to survive, maybe this is the opening a truce to peace.

"Cuse we're cool! lol

Silent I am not harassing you in any way, I just want the official quote or source that backs this comment.

In these forums I see a good number of people are starting to feel Sprint should be a Spartan attribute and it does make sense. He can jump higher than the average human and by that logic should be able to run faster. I think this is starting to gain some common liking in the forums.

Simple, show me one statement, an actual quote, period.

I like part of this. Where an opponent is on the ground, face up after a melee with a chance for a shot.

Well you know if you stand without moving long enough the Chief does go through his "Bored" routine. In regards to the walking, it is first person and you will never see it, unless in theater or by other players. I could see a possible small slide when you are running and attempt a quick stop. That would make you time your stop and be close to actual physics in the real world. "Slide Sniping" could become the new no scope, lol. Let's not get to off topic, this post is about ranks.

MC MacGyver, huh? We will have to wait and see. Think Chief is more of a fighter than a tech guy.

That is true, I am always willing to compromise on certain things. I think you know that.

That is my take on it.

You know me elite, I am for keeping it simple! I want there to be nuances to the games we haven't seen before, but at the core, I want the Chief up against those great odds where you feel you have little chance of survival and you have only your skill, "Spartan" never say die attitude and the weapons of the UNSC. If you make a friend or two along the way, fine.

You mean like a Scarrab?

This is a good attitude to have Spartan, let's just wait and see. Not everything I have read or heard always comes true.

I like some of the ideas I am reading about in here. I believe that a lot of what we end up seeing in forge though is going to be based off of what is in the campaign. This includes the weapons, vehicles and environments that we have probably never seen before. It will be new, so expect not to see some of the items you are familiar with and be ready to get blown away by what you do see.

I actually hope AA's do not stay, you know, but if they stay, AL has to go, period, end discussion.

Is this a song only you hear or does it broadcast to everyone?

Hey Vit! Looking forward to kicking around some ideas with you.
