Halo will NOT have custom classes, anyone who thinks it will is ignorant. One of the main aspects of Halo is the fact that everything isn't balanced. This forces the player to make pushes for the power weapons and maintain control of the map. Otherwise you will end up with a surplus of camping like CoD4.
I agree, no classes. The bold statement is ignorance in itself, however. That's not what it's about at all. You probably think that because of the Battle Rifle, which makes it unbalanced.
But, I hope to not see classes. Bungie will know what to do, so I'm not worried at all.
The Battle Rifle is balanced. The idea is to balance the gameplay so that if someone gets weapon X, I can still have a chance if I get weapon Y or have more skill. CoD does this by making there really be about 3 different weapons 40 times. Halo does this by making each weapon have a real weakness and a strength. IMO, Halo does it better. When OxyMoron says it is unbalanced, he means that the Rocket Launcher has different balance than an SMG, etc. The gameplay is balanced, but unlike CoD, you cannot compare weapons to each other and have them being almost exactly the same with different skins.
