I came, I saw, I conquered. On my quest to become Mythic. So all can be jealous of the amazing blue glow from my title bar. =) ~BlindChild~

I know I'll be taking the wheelman path. Can't wait till I get every last use out of my warthog in BTB.

Storm Rifle
Magnum
Plasma grenades
Hardlight Shield
Mobility ( or Firepower. I'd switch out the magnum for either the Carbine or Light Rifle)
Dexterity

Corn, Oil, and Wine... We need more wine...

If they were to just get rid of the Support and Tactical garbage Halo 4 would have a possibility of being decent for the MP. With those in there it's futile to say that Halo 4 isn't like CoD. They're perks. Plain and simple.

Anyway, for the sake of the thread I'll be going with the following over powered loadout.

DMR
Plasma Pistol
Frags
Thruster
Shielding
Dexterity (Seriously, who thought that this was a good idea?)

Brainwashing, idiotic media: "hur dur, vido gaems cas vilenc n iz nt gud. dey ned 2 b baned."

Logic: Really? Then please explain how there's violence in third world countries. I guess they're all poor due to the large amount of video games they buy.

For you, I recommend that you replace the magnum with the bolt Shot.

Lol.

DMR is a good choice.
Plasma Pistol has poop tracking and it runs out really fast.
Thruster isn't OP. They are all really balanced out. You'll see...
Shielding doesn't increase the recharge delay, just the recharge speed.
Dex only increases reload speed and weapons swapping, as in picking up weapons, not pressing Y.

Power weapons to spawn with? This isn't some crazy custom game.

My choices, from what I can remember, are:

CQB, competitive maps:
BR
Magnum
Frag Grenades
Hardlight Shield
Shielding
Dexterity

Large maps and/or Objective games:
Light Rifle
Plasma Pistol
Plasma Grenades
Thruster Pack
Mobility?
Something else from the list I can't remember.


And with up to 5 Custom Loadouts available, I'll have more opportunity to tinker with the new toys and see what works best for me. I may also use Resupply and Firepower.

But a few of those Loadouts I should probably reserve for Spartan Ops. Unless any of those work great for both modes.

I'm sure in the opening few weeks, everyone is going to be tinkering with all of these options to find their sweet spot. What I'm posting now isn't set in stone, just getting a general idea.

Smaller maps CQC
DMR
Bolt Shot
Frag Grenade
Thruster Pack/ Jetpack/ Regen - Depends on map/gametype
Resupply
Dexterity

BTB/Regicide
DMR
Plasma Pistol
Plasma Grenade
Thruster Pack / Jetpack / Regen
Mobility
Dexterity

This means the world to me.

Someone linked me to these images of information. Sorry if they're rather low res.

Weapons.
Armour Abilities.
Armour Mods.

Well, since the game is out (the Nov 1 content release) and more info is available.

Jack of all trades is for me (seems to fit more on control or situational advantage)

BR/DMR/AR (BR is easier to aim, DMR for long range or heavy engagements, and AR for close encounters)
-------------
Plasma pistol (disables shields, vehicles, falcon punch, it can also do some tracking)
-------------
Plasma grenade (doesnt bounce making an improvised mine or pinpoint explosion, can destroy vehicles, stick to players and if other players are near by they explode too, medium fuse which can act as area of denial and lastly it is more lethal than a frag)
------------
Thruster Pack (gets you out of bad situations, dodge grenades (which it does hardlights job), can be used in the air, you can melee in it, can get you in good situations, confuse foes, close gaps and finds cover easily and its good when youre caught off guard by Provision and Active camo)
----------------
Fast track (level up fast) then shielding (if recharge speeds are decently fast) or Grenadier (3 grenades are better than 2)
-------------
Stability (flinching is bad and if it reduces it significantly) and ammo (for long
engagements also an increase in ordnance ammo).

-------
Lets me work alone without hindering my lethalness. It also doesnt have to make me rely on random elements (Resupply for example, I hope he didnt throw all his grenades! Or I hope this guy doesnt make me flinch at the last second!).It can also help the team out aswell. Destroying vehicles (or disabling them), lowering enemies shields (or killing them outright).
You can switch to offense or defensive aswell (or both).
It also increases survival too.

Let's see.

Primary:DMR or Suppressor/Storm Rifle
Secondary: Plasma Pistol
Grenade: Plasma Grenade
AA: Auto Sentry
Tact Package: AA efficiency/Resupply
Support Upgrade: Dexterity/Explosives to eventually Gunner.

Hanger one I just shredded with the SMGs until ammo was out and I just threw 'nades like a boss while BRing.

Hello Call of Duty, nice to see you've invaded Halo.

Changed my mind slightly.

DMR/BR/LR/Carbine (mix it up)
Boltshot
Frag Grenade
Promethean Vision
AA Efficiency
Stability

They're on page 1.

BR or DMR
Plasma Pistol
Frag or Plasma (Frags bounce better but Plasmas are just more fun)
Promethean Vision
AA Efficiency
Awareness

Basically replace Awareness with Stability and Plasma Pistol with Boltshot. I think a steadier aim is worth more than a radar, unless I'm using a Sniper perhaps. And Boltshot might be handy for its Shotgun shot.

If we disagree, it's nothing personal, opinions are opinions.
Antagonizing me to build a false sense of worth is so damn cute.

Brighten your day with science.

I will own everyone in Halo: Reach

1st: I will use Thruster Pack with this one, combined with Explosives so I can quickly evade grenades with it, and with AA Efficiency I will be able to use it more.

Primary: DMR
Secondary: Boltshot
Grenades: Frags
Armor Ability: Thruster Pack
Tactical Package: AA Efficiency
Support Upgrade: Explosives

2nd: With this one I will try to regenerate my shields when I'm weak and confronting an enemy. With the Explosives upgrade I will try to resist grenades and with Shielding I will regrenerate faster to keep fighting.

Primary: BR
Secondary: Boltshot
Grenades: Frags
Armor Ability: Hardlight Shield
Tactical Package: Shielding
Support Upgrade: Explosives

3rd: Perfect for sniping, a la Hemorrhage. I will deploy Autrosentry to protect me while sniping, and that's why I will also use Awareness.

Primary: DMR
Secondary: Light Rifle
Grenades: Plasma
Armor Ability: Autosentry
Tactical Package: Firepower
Support Upgrade: Awareness
