Too Powerful - a petition to remove the Mongoose from Halo 4

343 Industries, I respect you, I respect what you did, I respect this game. But I've heard a lot of complaining on LIVE about this one, and I have to say I agree...

 

The Mongoose is just too damn powerful. I've been playing Halo for a long *** time, and I'm a skilled player, but in Halo 4, no matter what I do, I can't stop the mongoose. I've tried grenades, rockets, jumping... Nothing works. I even tried the plasma pistol, and it stops it for a couple seconds, but then it just starts moving again and runs me over anyway! And it's a one-hit kill! Every time I spawn I'm killed by the mongoose. There I am, out in the open, and blam!, I get hit by a mongoose. I've even tried running inside of buildings for cover, but it's so small and agile that it fits through the doorways and splatters me all over the hall. It takes all of the strategy out of the game. Everyone just rushes for the mongoose at the beginning of the match. It was good in previous games, but this isn't the mongoose that Bungie intended. It's not even Halo anymore! I mean sure, we're running around in spartan suits on alien planets with shields and whatnot, but that's the only thing that's still "Halo" about this game. You might as well call it Mongoose.

 

We used to have balance, in Halo 2, 3, hell, even in Reach. But now, it seems like the more kills the other team gets, the more mongooses...mongeese they get. I have to confess... I went to the dark side a while back. I decided if I was going to get killed by the mongoose so much, why shouldn't I fight fire with fire? So I started going for the mongoose too. And I got kills. I got a lot of them. But was it worth it? To feel dirty inside every time my team won because I got my kills with the all-powerful mongoose? To hear the n00bs and 12-year-olds call me a cheater every time I put treadmarks on their helmets? I know this is Halo 4 now, and it's adapt or die, but I just couln't do it. Just because it's in the game doesn't make it fair. I don't know how all these folks sleep at night. If you ask me, there's only one way to save Halo 4. Take the mongoose out of the game. Then we'll see who the real skilled players are.

 

Also, the following weapons are too powerful and unbalanced:

 

DMR

Fuel Rod Cannon

Needler

Pistol

Plasma Pistol

Sword

Gravity Hammer

Railgun

Shotgun

Scattershot

Sniper Rifle

Beam Rifle

Light Rifle

Binary Rifle

Jetpack

Plasma Grenade

Tank

Boltshot

 

But I can live with those weapons. Just take out the damn mongoose. Before it's too late.

This is possibly the worst thing I've seen today and i saw a lot of stuff today. Why the heck would they take out the mongoose thats like taking out the master cheif or the halo rings

 

And thats your fault if you get killed by the mongoose that much.
