Custom Games- Should Be Just That

[TristanX11]

One thing that personally disappointed me about Halo 3 and even more in Halo: Reach was the custom games. Why? Custom Games keep the game fresh. It made Halo 2 and 3 last several years past what they would have without it.

 

In Halo 3, custom games were great. Don't get me wrong, but there were options that should have been there that just weren't. A perfect example is the beam rifle. Why couldn't a person assign it as a starting weapon? There was NO point to not being able to do that. Did Bungie just forget? Well it's not important now. The point I'm trying to make is that when the Bungie.net forum threw an outrage on this, Bungie didn't capitalize on it in Halo: Reach.

 

Reach's custom game options are just pitiful. Awful. Horrendous. It's a mockery of itself. To me it removes the point of even having Forge World. Not only did Bungie fail to add the options it's fans begged for, but it also took away options that- AGAIN were completely pointless to remove.

 

What I'm asking of 343; is to make sure the options that should be out, are out. Halo 2 in retrospect had more customibility than any other Halo! Bungie made sure any possible option that a user might want to use was right there. As well as all weapons could be started with.

 

Enough of my ramble. Here's what I'm stating

1) All weapons that are in the game, and even previous games if possible, should be able to be selected to start with and place in forge.

2) Any possible options from previous games, and options we've all been asking for should be added.

3) Forge should reflect all these options and have a friendly UI that any person can properly use. No more of that "Not compatible with this gametype".

 

Now I'm sure I'll be editing this later. I am fairly tired and I have a feeling I just repeat myself over and over. However, I don't care. I want to see opinions of the forum, and any options that any of you would add too.

Well, send this message to 343i, and hope they will use some of your suggestions, i think they should add all weapons, but don't worry Halo 4 will be better than rest of the Halos i am sure.
