A few thoughts about the gameplay and works of WarGames in Halo 4..Not at all bad

-The main things that concern me in Halo 4 multiplayer are the support and tactical packages.. Yeah they may allow more personality and customization, but they also add a lot more variables to the combat, and so everyone will be at even more odd odds at game start..

I really hare doing and saying this, but the reason why call of duty gameplay isn't that good is because it has too many variables with the combat, and I am seeing more and more possibilities of bad scenarios and annoyances with more "perks" being brought in Halo...

 

-And not all of it directly effects gameplay with the weapons.. I guess the main things that seem kinda bad are the extra ammo, extra radar(not in-scope radar), faster shields and faster AA regen..

 

-Those and the very different Spartan cosmetic armors...quite different and more scaly..

 

What do you think??

If you have played Halo 4, does it seem like these things might be a problem?

 

I know and realize that everything that we have seen and played is from the E3(and therefore possibly quite outdated) version.. And 343 is continuing on refining the game up to launch so nothing's final,

-but this also means that there are most likely several more Tactical and Support Packages that will be shown once the game is released. Maybe even more Armor Abilities, and weapons to eventually choose from as well. Although it seems like most of these things in the loadout system will have to be unlocked through gamepley or even achievements, so there should be time to get used to the system..

 

--Also the Firepower Package seems like it could be a bit OP, at least at initial spawn..

ya i do agree a bit with all of the variables that will be added in. I;ve always liked how the games start out with everyone being an equal and battling it out for weapons and such. With these "perks", they havent seemed to affect the gameplay that i have seen very much, but i havent played the game so i wouldnt know for sure. With all of the changes that 343 is making, they will either make or break halo......

 

make it good....

Yeah it's looking to be coming along quite well :)

 

I used to feel the same way about the Firepower package. Then I examined it a little more. As a BTB player with 343industries recently confirming that the Plasma Pistol does stun vehicles and EMP shields, I believe that having the Plasma Pistol is vastly superior to any gains that could be made by having both the DMR and the BR at the same time. At least in gametypes with vehicles.

Great post. I agree with almost all of it. I do not think that the perks in halo 4 are as dramatic as those that are in COD. In COD there are many situations where it matters more about what perks you have than how good you really are. It seems that the perks in Halo 4 are going to be nice additions but not overly powered. I do think that some things need to be slightly edited to achieve overall balance but nothing really seems like a huge game changer.

 

I am excited to see how the entire system comes together. I also am looking forward to how we will get to earn credits and such.

I never thought of it that way, that makes me feel so much better about firepower.

And I pretty much agree with all of you! These "perks"(for lack of a better term) will bring more variety to the game and will hopefully make it a bit more interesting in the long run. I just dont want to have the "how the f.. did I die?!" reaction that I usually have in other FPS's that have the perk system..

But I'm confident that 343 knows what they are doing, and will balance these things out a best they can.
