Just do the opposite of all that -blam!- Mr EOS said and Halo 4 should be just great.

Take away bleedthrough in everything, make the DMR more rare.


Yeah, I like looking at an opponent and not being able to kill him, too, because my rifle has an effective range of 3 inches.

My petition would be to not listen to people like the one I quoted.


Then play DMR starts, and quit exaggerating. Jesus, all I'm saying is it gets rather dull when everybody can pick up the Swiss Army Gun and never need anything else.

Damn did you just come at me.


clearly u need to stop playing halo. x)


Why? I enjoy the game, and I'll enjoy it how I want.

I have a right to do so. He likes DMR starts, and I think that's cool. Keep in mind, I'm not sure I like a gun that trumps 90% of the rest and can be found every five feet.

My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

Don't put words in my mouth; the only gun I mentioned was the DMR. Where in my post did I say anything about any other gun?


Every other gun in the sandbox besides the commonly used ones just suck. So it doesn't matter which weapon you had in mind - if it's not a DMR, NR, or a power weapon it sucks.


Not very relevant, but fine, how about they buff every weapon so they can all kill in a few shots if it matters so much.

Would be easier to keep the DMR and Needle Rifle's damage output but make them semi-difficult to attain than to do that, but whatever. I'd rather not have a Halo with only five-or-so weapons used, but that's cool - I'll go play something else then.

Christ, this is so damn redundant.


Halo has always based its multiplayer (and campaign, for that matter) on the utility weapon. The M6D pistol, BR55, DMR, it doesn't matter, the sandbox in each respective game revolves around those weapons.

You might as well get used to it - that's how Halo is and (hopefully) always will be.

I have gotten used to it. I don't like it, and I don't agree with it, and I sure as hell don't think that's how a game should be made and played, but I have gotten used to it.

It just irks me that there's "one gun to rule them all", when I believe it should have a "rock-paper-scissors" thing going on, not "Plasma Rifle beat AR, Magnum beat Plasma Rifle, DMR beats Plasma Rifle, DMR beats Concussion Rifle, DMR beats Plasma Pistol, DMR beats FRG (which is absurd), DMR beats everything that doesn't kill you in one hit, etc".

I've played every Halo. I was never any good, but Reach is by no means my first.

  • 01.24.2012 2:03 PM PDT

I intend to live forever, or die trying,

so far, so good.

Ok, Here's your list...and this applies to Reach and Halo 4.

1. GET RID OF MATCHMAKING!

2. ADD DEDICATED SERVER SUPPORT
for 64 player matches, a TRUE BTB

3. GET RID OF ANY BANHAMMERS THAT DON'T IMMEDIATELY DEAL WITH ACTUAL CHEATERS/HACKS, ETC.
Quitting too much is not cheating
Talking too much is not cheating
Playing too much is not cheating

4. MORE CUSTOM OPTIONS

5. THE ENTIRE GAME SHOULD BE BUILT WITH CUSTOMS AT THE FOREFRONT OF THE MULTIPLAYER EXPERIENCE!

This next one is a bit complicated

6. THERE NEEDS TO BE A 'GAME HOST' AND A 'CONNECTION HOST' SYSTEM TO TAKE PLACE IN ANY MATCHES BEING PLAYED VIA P2P.

The Game Host - Picks the settings.
The Connection Host - Someone in the lobby that has the best ability to actually host it with minimal lag.

There is going to be no fighting over who the Game Host is.
If you don't like the game settings that he has up.
Leave and find another lobby.
No voting for Game Host, no switching of Game Hosts.

You can switch Connection Host as often as needed because...

7. JOIN IN PROGRESS (customizable setting for the game host)

Since you are now aware that Halo 4 needs to throw customs up in front of the 'one-armed-bandit' matchmaking system. You need to insure that you put as many customizable options as possible for game settings.

Jump height, Bullet damage, speed, skins, textures, effects, etc. etc.

Take a note from Bethesda please.

Done.

And if this means that they have to make Halo 4 for the PC...
SO BE IT!
Because Consoles are -blam!- stupid if this 'one-armed-bandit' is all it can manage to do or is allowed to do.



Oh wait.. almost forgot one.

8. GET RID OF LEADERBOARDS/STATS
This one is pretty self explanatory. I honestly think that the people who even care about any of these things are the true cause of games going in the -blam!-er.
Play because you like it, because it's fun. OR get the -blam!- out.
Because Stat-Whores are -blam!- retarded to be around, and retarded to play against.

It's like, the lobby score board isn't enough for them?...They have to have a history of it so they can jerk off to it with a bunch of other forum stat-whores? And then try to convince the developers to make -blam!- like quit bans all because of one little stat that it might affect?

-blam!- YOU! Stat-whores have got to go.


My response on my thoughts to yours.



1) I love MatchMaking and think it is still the best. However I would like to see a play list where you can join a game already in progress, so you can jump stright on and not have to wait searching.

2) I was really hoping Halo 4 would be at least 24 players, but am pretty sure that 16 players is still MAX.

3) I agree with you on this, but believe Quitters should be punishied, but only those who quit all the time.

4)Yes, More Custom options is always good.

5) I disagree with this, but we should be able to search custom games and join them.

6)I thought this was the case, that who ever had the best connection was host, as the game host can quit a custom game, and you don't black screen.

7) Yes, I think some Play List should have this, but not all.

8)I like STATS, and so do alot of other people. I think your K/D should be listed in game for each play list.

If there was, I'd likely go for fixing the rigged rock paper scissors vehicle combat system, fixing vehicle resistances, health, and damage ratios. I'd go for nerfing the DMR and Sniper damage against vehicles.

I'd also ask that weapons as a whole be tweaked, mostly the covenant ones, as they all fall short of their UNSC counterparts and just have really no place in the sandbox.

And last of all, Elites. All I would ask for is co-op species to be brought back. Elites and their fanbase got shafted big time in Reach, and continue to get the middle finger from bungie/343, as most updates to customs, have removed Elites entirely, such as the Alpha zombies gametype, while MM offers little, and what it does offer is of somewhat poor quality.

...Probably because Reach is about the UNSC. The Elites are still with the Covenant, the Covenant are the bad guys, the bad guys are supposed to be unsympathetic, the ELites aren't supposed to be sympathetic. They butcher the human race in the game; Thel 'Vadam gave the order for Reach to be glassed. He's not supposed to be sympathetic here either.

Halo: Reach is the beginning of a new age for gaming.
It proves that developers can get away with punishing their players instead of fixing their game....and yet the fanboys will still sing praises to them.

-blam!- all of you fanboys!

How can someone possibly find it in themselves to disagree with the idea that:
Customs should be at the forefront of the multiplayer experience.

HOW?

DO YOU NOT READ THIS FORUM!?

A Million different people with a million different opinions on how things should work.

But you think a handful of playlists designed by a handful of people is going to handle that and satisfy everyone?

AS YOU CAN SEE.... IT IS NOT!

Why are so many people quitting?
Read above.

Just because you don't like join-in-progress games, doesn't mean the rest of the community should suffer having to play to YOUR standards of what makes a good multiplayer game.

Hence the reason why I said to make Join-in-progress a customizable setting.

Now the only REAL roadblock to all this....
Is this communities fascination with worthless numbers.
And the developers fascination with thinking they have to control the numbers and keep them fair between players....

-blam!- THAT!

Give me a proper custom game service.

And if you absolutely must appease these -blam!- stat whores.
Make customs keep track of stats or dish out credits or whatever lame number system you come up with!
How -blam!- hard is that to do?

You already know, that Tru-skill is not going to work...no matter what you do with it. Mainly, because of hacks, cheats, boosters, lag, teammates, etc.

So stop trying.

You want fair matchups? Then let the players decide for themselves what's fair.
Build a multiplayer system that works around this fact: people are going to take it upon themselves to decide what's fair.

I know you're listening Bungie/343.
But even if you're not. My fight is still to beat some logic into these idiots that call themselves gamers, because until they figure it out, you probably won't.

Have A Nice Day!

Commander, CammCam's Queensguard; Sapphire Mod; 34th Seat, Table of Avalon(Exiled);Captain, HAND

yolo? -blam!- that! YOLTOSS!! You Only Live Twice or Some -blam!-

I would petition 343 to do a better job of keeping people who play their games and -blam!- about the way they handle their games on THEIR FORUMS.

Seriously, they are slack when it comes to that.

fix the DLC and customizable loadouts would be a nice touch

Seriously....what would be the point....they're not going to change anything, or do anything about it......their focus is now on Halo 4, and not hopefully screwing that up.


When ever I see some one with this type of comment it makes me think if Halo 4 sucks how many people will use the excuse "Well their focusing on Halo 5 right now".


Please don't misunderstand my comment, for I own the fact that I hate 343 with a blaming passion, as they have broken more in this game than fixed.

What most forget, is 343 has NEVER made a video game before, only published them, and was given the biggest franchise in video gaming history to continue with, and has a whole lot to prove with it.

I blame Bungie for the let down in this game, and all the faults and fails we are now having to deal with, and should have lived by the Halo motto, of Finishing the Fight, and hence, finishing off this game with fixing it properly before handing it off to what has proven to be a very inferior company.

If Halo 4 had no stat-tracking...

How many of you would throw a conniption fit over it?


Good. BYE!


This would be the best idea ever! NO K/D, NO Win/Loss, no Bullcrap to get in the way of enjoying the game.

People would be so mad that they couldnt stat pad then boast how 1337 they are on the forums. IMO that is what ruined Halo, people so obessed with being "good"


Also, Petitions are against the 343i forum rules, so all of the -blam!-in is void, sorry friends.

1. Remove Anniversary gametypes, it is like jumping with a rock.
2. Add all playlists with TU gametypes and add Zero bloom, like a TU it needs to be implemented in everything like in Halo 3, a TU was impletemented to everything not just few gametypes

3. Remove the Armor lock, even with the lastest update it still fails

4. New maps for invasion 1 year and no new maps for invasion, they should've donde a new invasion map in the anniversary map pack. Or make them be compatible with invasion.
