XxTHE WILLYxX Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 So my friend was telling me that they have a radar in multiplayer like in MW3 in the corner of the screen. I wanted to know if this is true. Or is it gonna be like Halo Reach? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CandiBunni Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 No, they do not. Your friend told you something that is incorrect. Halo uses a "motion tracker" which detects when someone is moving, tossing a grenade, shooting, jumping, etc. If you are moving while crouched you will not show up on the radar, but tossing a grenade, jumping, or shooting will all show you on a nearby player's radar for a brief moment. The motion tracker has a pretty limited range, and anything outside of that range will not show up. Halo: Reach uses the exact same kind of motion tracker that past Halo titles used, albeit with perhaps a shorter range and a feature that shows whether or not someone is above, below, or on the same level as you on the map. The motion tracker we've used in previous games will return in Halo 4, and perhaps it will alert us to a few new things depending on what happens in a match or what abilities someone is using. We don't know the exact details, so it's best to wait and see. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorB77 Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 An update us that teammates are now green on the radar and you will know if they are above or below you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McChicken343 Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Yes its exactly CoD. Although more like Black ops rather than MW3 . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CandiBunni Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Yes its exactly CoD. Although more like Black ops rather than MW3 . It is not exactly like Call of Duty. 343 Industries has said time and time again that they're not just going to take a feature from another game and toss it into Halo. They're going to try to balance what they add and change. They won't shoe horn something in and say "Well, there's a new feature! We don't have to alter it or make sure it's balanced for the playstyle of Halo because it worked just fine in Call of Duty!" Some features may be similar, but they will not be just like the features you see in Call of Duty. There will more than likely not be any skins for weapons, no weapon attachments, no killstreak rewards, nothing of that sort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedStarRocket91 Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Yes its exactly CoD. Although more like Black ops rather than MW3 . Motion tracker =/= radar map. In CoD, you only show up when there's some sort of perk being used, and then only at intervals, or if you're firing your weapon. This happens no matter where you are on the map in relation to your opponent. In Halo, you show up as long as you're in range of your opponent and are moving quickly or taking aggressive action, i.e. throwing grenades or firing your weapon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skummgummigubbe Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 CoD radar have the mapp you are playing and enemu is showed eter by shots fired or by UAV = Unmanned Aerial Vehicle or heart beat sensor and halo is motion tracker and is not showing map as background. it's a big difference between halo and CoD radar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ccup-mann Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 At the moment there is a lot of "friends" trolling. Halo is not going to be cod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
