If we have to endure AAs again in Halo 4, what about an AA that balances the revolting abomination that is the Active Camo AA (not the power-up) with an AA where you sacrifice sprint/jetpack for the ability to:

- See players using Camo clear as day.

- Enhanced radar for the duration of the AA's use. (i.e. See stationary camping targets on your radar despite the fact they're not moving.)

Just an idea I felt like throwing out there for the sake of throwing an idea out there. AA's duration limit should be similar to the duration of the Camo AA.

You could also play Halo 3.

It would be a mistake to put AA in Halo 4.

Alterntively, just remove Camo from spawn and don't consider such a goddamn retarded idea ever again. You're using a complicated fix to a simple problem; the Bungie approach.

Why is it the Bungie approach?

'Hey guys, we need to stop AR/melee. Let's not solve the problem by just WEAKENING MELEE, that would be stupid. Instead, let's take off melee bleedthrough and totally mess up the core game mechanics by making sprint double melee more of a viable option than shooting.'

'GOOD IDEA!!!!'

This sig will Self-Destruct in 3.... 2.... 1.... Thank you for your time. Cookie?

If they reduced Melee and took out Camo, Armor Lock, and Hologram, I can see people enjoying the use of Jetpack, Sprint, and Evade. Not all of the AAs are bad, imo; they just need more refined mechanics, and some of the AAs just need to outright go.

Also... yeah, no. Besides, camo isn't that useful anyway. Once you learn how to spot it, camo turns out to be a pretty useless AA.

If they expand on AAs in Halo 4, I'm done. I'm about to go to college soon so I might not even have time for Halo.
