L4B Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 But isn't it? We're the ones buying the game, we're the ones giving them money, no sane company would give the consumer something they don't want. If enough people don't like the decision to put so and so in any game and because of that don't buy it, then the game company will do whatever the consumer (you, me, everyone) wants. The same thing can be accomplished through petitions or mass emails. Sure it's still the game companies decision, but through sales the consumers control every decision they make. Now on topic I don't mind sprint so much, if everyone started with sprint than I just wouldn't care since the only reason I complain about AAs is because they mean that players start the game unequal. If everyone started with sprint and were able to replace it with evade or a jump pack (not a jet pack) then I would absolutely love the game. I wouldn't mind if everyone started out with sprint and then able to replace it with an AA on map so that's a good idea which I think will work well, as for the Jump pack idea I'm not sure about that one to be honest... depends how much advantage it will gives you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archangel Tyrael Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Well i do agree that sprint makes people double melee more. I have had people runa t me and try to double melee me instead of shoot, it's sad. And i agree, just add bleedthrough back will solve most double melee issues. For reaction time, i agree a bit.

Krinn3 Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 i havent gotten double meleed frequently by sprint users. honestly, all the map-navigation based abilities need to stay. Things like sprint, evade, and jetpack are all amazing. I would love to see these advanced even further in H4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drakell Posted March 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Not your decision. Just the most insightful post. Thanks for telling me that. I didn't know I wasn't working on the game till you told. I literally just realized I'm not working for 343 so thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drakell Posted March 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Hey, HERE'S A SOLUTION! Watch some of 343i interviews.. They already confirmed that there will be a classic playlist for the players who like that old Halo Feel. This argument is stupid. Just get over the fact that the game is evolving, and deal with it. You can most likely customize the gameplay settings, like in past Halo Games. I'm sure you will be able to customize the settings, but I think you are missing the point I was trying to make. I don't want to only enjoy custom games that only revolve around the rules I set while every playlist out there operates in a different manner that I detest.

Drakell Posted March 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Are you kidding me OP? Dude, if 343 had the choice to keep one armor ability, most halo fans would say sprint. ARMOR LOCK is the thing they need to boot. Don't get me wrong here, I hate all of the armor abilities, and if they did keep one, I would agree that sprint is the way to go. Sprint was the only AA that was really ever in discussion, therefore that's what my post is about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drakell Posted March 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 No sorry your wrong, I played halo 2 and 3 extensively and sprint was in my mind the best thing about Reach, glad to see 343 are keeping it. You spelled "you're" incorrectly, but that's beside the point. Would you like to explain why I'm wrong in my opinion. I don't care if you disagree with me, but I would like some reasons or something a little more than. You're wrong and I'm right, and that's that, etc...

Baby Boo Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Yeah I hate it when people just practically say "Nope, you're wrong and I'm right." Without any reasoning. Anyway, thats besides the point. Overall, I think halo 4 should have armor abilitys, just only things like, as I've mentioned before, abilities like sprint, evade, active camo, drop shield, and maybe jet pack. things like armor lock are just... no.

So only things like.... everything but armor lock? lol Okay. I just don't like them because it leaves everyone on uneven ground at the very beginning of the game. And it's MUCH more uneven than any of the perks from CoD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lᴜᴋᴇ Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 I don't think armour abilities are less skilful. I think it takes skill to use them effectively to outsmart your opponent. Anyway, on topic, sprint should definitely be in Halo 4 on its own, like CoD and Battlefield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, on topic, sprint should definitely be in Halo 4 on its own, like CoD and Battlefield. Another reason I disagree. I don't want it to be anything like CoD or Battlefield. And there are several cases where AA's completely disadvantage the more skillful players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lᴜᴋᴇ Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Why not? They are both good games. I could have said it about any game, just those two came into my mind first. I really think that sprint should be a standard option, not as a seperate AA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baby Boo Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Yes. Definately sprint. Lol and by the way, it wasn't only armor lock I left out. I also left out hologram, and I never said I wanted jet pack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the different, space and future driven, other-worldly feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pink Lemonade Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 We have to get things straight here, SPRINT is a MECHANIC and new mechanics are never a necessity to any game. Just because new games are successful with a certain mechanic that doesn't mean every new game will be successful with that mechanic. Look at what sprinting did to rainbow six vegas two, that game was awful compared to the first one. Sprinting in reach has proven to me that its a bad mechanic for halo. I think a lot of people who want sprint in halo are very aggressive players who have no patience and chose not to use their heads in game. It's always better for a competitive game to have predictable game play, that makes it more balanced and less random and game plans are also much more effective. Sprinting isn't a part of the evolution of gameplay, theres no such thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValentineF Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 First, i like the armor abilities because they can give anyone a leg up. but if you are SKILLFUL enough you can out do taht person. ex. Armor lock is beaten by patience. jet packing is a BAD idea in an open space. Evade can be out down by taking advantage of his evasion and getting into cover and getting away (never said you have to win) if you truely want to be good with AA then try those little examples,. But becareful when you use em. they may not always work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not unique gameplay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all, it is only a little tiny piece of the game. It doesn't really change it all that much......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baby Boo Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 ^ exactly. Point is, having sprint wouldn't hurt. In fact, it would be a key point to gameplay. I kno in reach, all I use is sprint. And drop shield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
