DerpWithAGun Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 I believe there should be a 1v1 playlist in Halo 4. It would be very fun. I love to 1v1 people but I can never find anyone on forums or friend lists to come and 1v1 me, if they do accept they are either better than me by a lot, or they suck bad. I thought it would be pretty cool to be able to 1v1 any random who I've never met. There wouldn't be any lag as the War Games always searches for people with a good connection.

DerpWithAGun Posted October 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 No. To easily boosted. What do you mean? You can just make the max party size 1. Can't boost now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SatanicBagels Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 What do you mean? You can just make the max party size 1. Can't boost now. You could organize with whoever you get matched up with. Also there may be exploits that made it possible to get paired with friends who let you boost with them. The main reason it was taken out of Halo 3 was because it didn't work well. The player in the lead simply would hide in a defensible location and hoard power weapons.

Online Denied Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 Yeh I agree with Bagles people would just boost n when there m8 is searching he goes to his profile then goes join sesh. Then bam a boosting lobby. Edit:Why do you think cage match got removed from CoD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinyl Scratch Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 Most definitely, then losers would stop winning about have a 1v1 after a match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you wouldn't be able to do that in Halo 4 because of the random drop locations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but what they found out was because of consistently lopsided matches Head-to-Head wasn't much fun and wasn't getting played... so they removed it. I don't see it coming back.

Ryu♥Hayabusa Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 Perhaps a special set of maps specifically for 1v1 with no weapons could work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upton889 Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 The biggest problem in 1v1 for me is host advantages. One player possesses host when the other does not, which makes the match unequal. If 343 could take out host and power weapons I don't see a problem with 1v1 making a return. I do think if this were to happen then 343 would need to make smaller maps because, with the exclusion of Haven and maybe a few others, most of the Halo 4 maps are entirely too big for 1v1.

DoctorB77 Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 I think that 343i has the ability to make a 1v1 gametype. 1v1 maps would not be a problem because of the forge options we have. In casde you did not know ordnance drops are not required and can be turned off to have normal slayer modes. IMO there is no reason not to have the gametype. If there are people who would enjoy playing it then 343i should try and make it. If you have anything against 1v1s then just don't play that playlist. Said above bagels said something about boosting. Making it a max party of one with no "partying up". I am sure 343i could make it work out well over all. So as said before... "why not?" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ike. Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 Agree with the doctor. I would play it. I'm a bit of a lone wolf so it would be nice to have a non team oriented slayer game-type other than just Rumble Pit. If 343i put their mind to it they could make it work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffy the spartan buffalo Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 i think 1v1 would be awsome if they could make it work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hᴜᴍᴘsᴛʏʟᴇs Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 I remember the first time getting standby'd in Halo 2 in Head-to-Head on Lockout. I had no idea what was going on. That being said, no 1v1 in Halo 4. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konshens Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 It would be nice if it was made correctly, but seems too difficult. Old 1v1 playlists were too easy to cheat in. A couple of my friends in halo 2 and in halo 3 would buy multiple xbox live accounts (waste of money) and then play against themselves by switching their xbox's languages to languages that are not usually used and then preferring language when searching just to get high ranks. It promotes more boosting then any other playlist, so I do not think it would be any different in this game. Also, if there aren't going to be any ranked numbers on playlists wouldn't that make a 1v1 playlist pointless? I don't think a 1v1 social game would be too popular.

Hᴜᴍᴘsᴛʏʟᴇs Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 I don't think a 1v1 social game would be too popular. Exactly, because selfish players would still camp power weapons or cheat somehow, even without a 1-50 rank to increase... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tallgeese Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 1v1 is used by people to boost their egos...I think it wont be popular Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EliteSniper Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 No, definitely no. What would happen if a player camps in a corner with the shotty/sword/rockets? How would he other player kill him without any teamwork? In Double Team you can avoid that easier because you can use a player to distract the campers and the other successfully kills them. Even if there is a playlist, I wouldn't play it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a 1v1 I do not think they would allow power weapons 1v1 is used by people to boost their egos...I think it wont be popular It would also help less talented players such as myself get better.

The Director Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 It would also help less talented players such as myself get better. Or you could go into matchmaking until you find a guy better than you, and ask him if he would mind having a couple of 1v1's with you so you could get better.

Dawn Wolf Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Yes, definitely. I loved it in H3, even if they did it oddly. Who cares if people boost, 1v1 needs to be added. You don't have to play it, but lots of people would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caboose The Ace Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 i think it would be pointless very pointless indead becases boosting etc so i vote no Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawn Wolf Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Sigh... So THIS is why we don't have 1v1 playlists... *shakes head in shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Hansen Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 There used to be 1v1. It was called Head to Head. It was in halo 2 and halo 3, but bungie removed it from halo 3 pretty early on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
