Seems like a "Love it or Hate it relation" I personally love it and am very addicted to it. I've played all of the previous Halo games and nothing has gotten me to feel this way about Halo since Halo 3.


Really? I was really enjoying it at first but now the multiplayer has turned me off a lot. Thinking of going back to reach actually.

I've already gone back.

.:[Jim Tuite]:.

Why Halo 4 is terrible:

Campaign
> Have to go to Waypoint to watch the Terminals.
Multiplayer:
> Instant Spawn
> Ordnance
> No map control
> loadouts
> Prom vision/active camo/damage boost
Custom games:
> Custom game options are terrible
Forge:
> No fine editing mode
> No custom game options= no reason to forge.
Theater:
> Can't film in Campaign.
Spartan ops:
> unoriginal design for maps.

Stop arguing over imaginary -blam!-. May as well argue over Santa Claus. There will never be proof that there is/was a god - and before people start saying "HERP DERP PROVE THERE WASN'T ONE ROFLOLOL" well, you are the people who made it up in the first place so we know there isn't one
What created the big bang then? A coalition of genetically modified TR-909s with extra distortion?

I cry when playing against teams of boltshot users myself.

reach stayed true to competetive halo. Halo 4 is entirely different. You could be amazing at reach and three because of skill. Halo 4 no such quality exists.


No. Reach sucked. Bloom was ridiculous and the Armor Abilities just broke maps like no other.

Though I agree Halo 4 also sucks.

But don't even compare them to the original 3.

Halo 4 is a game of luck not skill.
Sadly, I agree.

And I was one of the Halo 4 supporters on here before it was released.

After hitting SR 78 I'm debating on whether to just quit the game or not...

Worst part about the game is the self centered team mates...

I go on a 15 kill streak with the banshee in Exile only to have my own teammates shoot me down with the Gauss...

Lack of map control, poor execution of Spartan Ops, poor map designs(I can only name 3 decent maps compared to previous installments in the series), and a campaign that left me feeling empty(I was hoping there was more to it and it felt lacking in story telling, my first playthrough was on legendary solo, but it was pretty much a 5-6 hour experience)...

By the looks of it Halo should have just ended with 3...

lol halo reach was much more competetive than halo 4 you want to talk about randomness bring up ordinance drops you get cannon I get needler nice. Reach was meh but it was still a halo game at the core. H4 is sad and about luck not skill.

You have to admit though, that ZB was good, especially MLG ZB.

I use an ordnance drop, have to pick between a scattershot a needler and speed boost. The enemy gets Overshields, Binary Rifles and Snipers. Yup no luck there at all..

The only Reach that took skill was zero bloom. And that was just dominated by the automatic needle rifle. I don't disagree about Halo 4. It sucks. Probably currently worse than Reach even, but it could actually be fixed to be better than Reach if 343 actually tries to.

  • 11.28.2012 8:53 PM PDT

i think i would like it more, if there were more quality maps, All of these maps seem just plain bad

Top 1000 in halo 4 and 4 top 100 placings in playlists in reach top 1000 overall in reach with 70% of the top 100 on my fl.. Play with many top 32 Mlg players often. Yea I'm terrible and have no idea what I'm talking about 2.0 for both games. I was top 40 for Canada overall.

I'm very good at Halo. I'm not going to try to prove it to you... just please take my word for it. I know what I'm talking about.


Nope, you're TERRIBLE at Halo.

YOU SUCK.

But seriously... regicide. I was about to die from a Scattershot... NOPE! Overshields at the last possible second. 30-10. And! It happened like 4 times.

And getting our ass beat by vehicles.. 740-850. I get laser from ordnance, explode vehicles... 1000-970.
Or 100-70, I get sniper! And now its 500-150.

That's debatable but I agree zb was the best reach had.at the core reach had some randomness aka bloom. However it was fixed ordinance drops are random so how could this be adjusted I don't know. It totally goes against the skill in halo in reach you could at least crouch spam the dmr in h4 you can't dO anything about someone getting a better ordnance. No ranked playlist either arena was bad but at least they had one off of the start.

I -blam!- hate it beyond belief, but I also love it. The assist system is one of my biggest problems, if you're going to make an assist system, dont reward the kill to the person who took 1 shot while I took down his shields. It makes sense in Halo 3 and etc but not here.

Lag is terrible, I cant tell you how many times I do things and it doesnt register until its too late.

For example, I beat this kid down, with his shields down, and he turned around and killed me with a shot gun, then after Ive already spawned again it gives me the "beat down" kill

Then theres the hit detection, its terrible, plus when I take down someones shields and I shoot them in the body, it shouldn't take 5 to 6 more shots to kill him, 2 or 3 at the most, but its going up to 5 or 6 more shots and its bull

343i won't fix H4. They'll halfass the title updates just like they did with Reach.

I agree, OP, but posting won't help anything.

The only thing I find wrong with the multiplayer is the Boltshot. That gun needs to be nerfed ASAP, ruins close quarters combat.

Everything else is fine.


I'm not sure if you suck, or you just have no idea how to counter it.

The lag is atrocious for Halo 4, that's my biggest gripe with it. I can spend entire matches getting shot through walls, or killed by people who aren't even aiming at me in the killcams while they soak up bullets like a sponge. And the thing about it? Not my connection. I can play any other game with little to no real lag, but as soon as I get on Halo 4? NOPE.


The fault is on your end, not theirs.
