People this is not Halo as you know it call it Falo if it helps and 343 just need to push whatever they had as the master plan for the game and make somehing new that suits it and will define it as a great game. I will give it time for this to happen... but only in time will we know if the game will be great or bad.

 

At the moment i am personally dissapointed but then again i hated reach entirely (much prefer H4) it just needs to sort itself out a little,

 

Lets be honest most of the issues are with the fact that players have taken up a bad way of playing the game, some rounds still have the fun factor that made halo's great, it just depends on the players..

That's what the forum is for... :\

 

You know I like several things with the game. Change loadout rules, and linger spawn times, and the game is the best Halo ever. I want a pure Halo3 multiplayer on nitro. This games pretty close. Engine ang Gfx tops all on Xbox. Is just an npolushed diamond rules wise.

And reach is really easier to play than H4, in my opinion.

 

I disagree with this entirely. I see more spray n pray in this game than any other game. You spawn with a one shot kill weapon. DMR has very very little bloom, and now people complain about it being so overpowered. You can get ordinance dropped to you that can change the game. I'll agree that H4 is a good game, but it NOT harder to play than Reach.

 

As for the online players, are you going off of the numbers on Reach itself? If you look right now, Reach will probably still say that Swat has 6018 players... It hasn't changed for quite some time now. At least for me, a week straight it said 6018 players.

LOL this is nothing like halo 3, its so far removed if the series was based on 3 I would barely call this halo... H4 is not a bad game its just not Halo as people wanted it. Then again neither was reach but at the stage they made it bungie were one foot out the door so no surprise they made it very different.

 

Halo 3 was a precision skill based game, if you were better you won and winning is what mattered most, it may be slow once you have played reach or H4 but the action was made by the people playing it and their attitude.

 

H4 is a faster yet much slower game, less hectic action, less fun, less skill.. the fact there is no real difference between a win and a loss leaves people worrying about stupid K/D ratios. It is a totally different game and despite all the advances a shadow of its predecessor. This will never change but maybe they can at least make it a little better.

If Halo 4 implemented the competitive skill rank system, fixed the killcam and playlist issues (in particular, implement lone wolves, team doubles, and team snipers), and maybe do some weapon tweaks, the level of complaining would go down and Halo 4 would be that much better of a game. The thing is, these are fixes that could be easily made in a short time period. I just don't understand why 343 won't go ahead and do it.

Agree entirely, I enjoy this game and a few small things could fix a lot of complaints, we see the same complaints every day, I think the reason that they are not doing this is that they released what one might call an unfinished product and took advantage of the update system to actually finish it. I dare say many of the game modes mentioned were intended to be added they are fan favourites after all, but with no beta testing etc. they may have not gone to plan and thus are still essentially being made. We are all aware that they have not finished the ranking system that is meant to be running in the background or else it would be up and running.

 

This finishing the game means that they are not in a postion to tweak things that are there already i.e. weapons.

 

I guess this will happen in the future and I will probably still be playing it on and off, but I do fear it may be later rather than sooner
