I made this thread to sort out the good AA's from reach in order for them being powerups/equipment in Halo 4.
As for now,no-one wants Jetpack,Armor Lock or Evade
I kinda like Evade... fun to use, also just seems like an Elite thing as opposed to Sprint

Nope. Anyone who says yes is wrong. Sprint will be null with the increases movement speed and jump height.

Name's John. I'm a 21-year-old firefighter/EMT from lolhio who doubles as a die-hard Halo fan. I've been enjoying the franchise since 2001. My favorite iteration of Halo would have to be Halo 2 simply because I never got to experience the joy of a full-on Halo: CE LAN.


If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Oh yeah, and boot Zome.

No.

Active camo can stay as a powerup only, in accordance with previous titles.

I would personally like to only see sprint or nothing. But if armor lock was removed id be happy. Ive been playing the classic maps lately and anniversary style play has been really fun with power ups in certain areas, i think halo needs to go back to this, its..better that way.

Spartans can Sprint and Slide by default.

Elites can Evade by default. Evading while in the air will cause the Elite to do a front flip, back flip or side flip based on the direction of the stick.

Both species can Thrust Pack.

So Says Shadroxon.

Sprint and Hologram are fine.

Sprint, hologram and dropsheild. But only as long as they are equipment.

No armour abilities should be in Halo 4, armour abilities is one of the reason Reach is already dead, where Halo 2, 3 survived years before it finally died.

To the people saying "Jetpacks WILL be in Halo 4, look at the trailer!"

That isn't a jetpack, it's a Zero Gravity Space thruster that can only be used in no gravity, Chief has always had it. Anyway, I'm guessing all the AA's were destroyed on Reach anyway, otherwise why wouldn't they of been in Halo 1, 2, and 3.

Sprint. Thrust Pack. Slide. These are 3 abilities that every player has off spawn, no loadouts.

Sprint functions as it did it Reach.

Crouching while Sprinting will cause your Spartan to Slide a short distance.

Thrust pack would give a short burst off upward acceleration after jumping. Pressing A jumps, pressing A while in the air activates a quick burst of Thrust Pack.

All 3 of these abilities drain the same meter. Sprinting would drain it gradually, a Slide is one quarter of the meter and a Thrust Jump is half the meter.


Not Evade. This


Is any of this ish confirmed? GAWD I hope NOT!

@^ Nope. Just my ideas. The code already exists and with minor modification could be made a reality. Also see my other post about Elites.

I guess Action Figures and barbies are different too?

I'll pass! No offence, but not one of your ideas appeal to me as a Halo gamer! I would prefer the game to have NO AA's! I would accept certain playlists that allow for AA's as pick-ups like H3 as long as the core game play returns to it's former glory.

If including sprint or (any other AA) in the game means I have to sacrifice player movement speed and jump height, then leave that ish out PLEASE!

Oh, there ain't no rest for the wicked.
Money don't grow on trees.
I got bills to pay, I got mouths to feed, There ain't nothing in this world for free.
I know I can't slow down, I can't hold back, though you know, I wish I could.
No there ain't no rest for the wicked,
Until we close our eyes for good.

Liking AAs mean you like dicks.

@lime green The difference between Halo Reach's movement speed and Halo 3's movement speed is less than 2%. You just think you are moving slower because of the wider field of view.

As for the lowered jump height, that is true but that is not tied directly to AAs. You can have Sprint as well as high jump height, no?

Opinions are like butholes. Everyone's got one, nobody wants to hear about it.

Sprint.

Nuke AAs other than sprint and place them back as pick ups.


This post wins.

Agreed the speed is not nearly as big of an issue as the jump height, and if the jump height was increased, I would be fine with having sprint as a pick-up on some maps, but not all..

Just as you don't find the grav lift on every map.. I think the pick-ups should have a correlation with how the map plays...

Hey, uh, if you like vs threads, then check out this little group right here, if you have the time. It's pretty fun, just hop right in.

Sprint, maybe Evade, but the rest should be powerups.

What house has a rocket pod, has legs, and has a long narrow barrel that probably shoots something powerful?

Sounds like you're describing the lower half of my body, actually.

Definitely sprint blow up all the others. Maybe keep Hologram just maybe.

  • 11.29.2011 4:27 PM PDT

No AAs please, I couldn't stand them in Reach after a while.
