Constructive criticism is fine but please dont call the hardworking folks at 343 fools for making a game that wasnt competitive enough for your tastes. Come on now. And they are taking community feedback.
He has mentioned DMR nerf or BR buffs.
Boltshot nerf.
Carbine buff.
Camo nerf.
Plausible, but not confirmed Thruster buff etc.


Those are "fool's fixes?"

Yeah, they are. The things this game needs to be good are far, far beyond petty crap like giving minor buffs and nerfs to a few select weapons. But I wouldn't expect the guy who raped Halo's corpse (Kevin Franklin) to know that, he legitimately thinks instant respawn, ordnance, and his worthless iteration of CTF are good things.

I don't give a rat's ass how hard they work. They promised several things for this game they didn't deliver on, and instead of actually testing their game and catching the smorgasbord of dumb glitches and amateur design choices they were shipping out, they were too busy deciding which signature CoD mechanic they should rip off next. They're dumb, careless, and stubborn.
Oh my. Unstrap the high chair and give him his binky! We got a whiner!

Hopefully a damn DMR nerf.
This needs to happen or there is no reason to play the game.

They better not buff the BR or Carbine though. They're both fine as they are and if they do get buffed, then Auto Weapons will probably end up useless again. Just a thought.

The carbine is almost never used. It NEEDS a buff.
And the DMR's kill times are fast and great. Instead of A DMR nerf, the rest of the weapons need to go up to it. BR= 4 shot (like in slayer pro) is the best thing.

Notice the relatively even mix of BR-DMR and AR in slayer pro? There's a reason. The 3 weapon are balanced perfectly in that.

ZomG, for those people wanting to know everything, this is not my Main tag anymore, (McCrash IS for Posting on B.net)

Original XbL Gamertag, zeDutchKreatiVz, as you guessed, Im Dutch/from Holland/Amsterdam.

...Also wTf happened to Halo.......*sighs*

I use Br cause of the more involved skill in it.

honestly, Dmr is OP holy -blam!-, on ragnarok, you zoom in pull trigger five times and you got a kill.

the Boltshot is basically a mauler ON frikkin spawn.

Plasma nades do not do damage unless sticked upon.

idk why, but the Beam rifle is sooooo easy to shoot with.( not saying it needs an update)

and dear god, I still do not know why you SEE where the damn weapons are on the map. dominion ok, but all other playlists, thats just stupid, never was in halo, as was the damn press x to spawn.

it's just goddamn stupid.
Instead of going the Unique way Halo has( expand it)
they threw in other crap from other games, I DONT EVEN PLAY.

and to other people saying "whiners", it's funny cause in previous halo's those casuals Whined about how they couldn't play the game, and so they changed it FOR them, and We needed to adapt,
Why was it again that They didn't need to adapt to us?
(leave out money, population and crap)
the "smaller" community from the original trilogy I liked best, because back then (ImO) the immaturity was Good Immature (bungie immature) now it is just sad because the "whiners" back then, Actually Got What They Wanted.

which is pissing me off for some reason -_-. End rant.

Edit; also seriously the Carbine should just be up there with the Br, Dmr as in Kill times.
It was the first Single shot rifle and should beat the dmr (lessed a skilled player is holding it.)

The reason the Carbine is never used is because everyone uses the DMR seeing how it's overpowered. The others who use the BR use it simply because it's the BR. The Carbine is actually my favorite primary weapon. I've played a good amount of matches where the DMR wasn't being used and the Carbine was being very useful along with all the other weapons at their intended situations. That's how I see it, but I could be wrong. We'll find out soon anyway I guess.

I've been playing Halo since 2002. My earliest memories include hiding at the shotgun window on Damnation and killing my dad with grenades while playing co-op on Pillar of Autumn.

Current members of the Gnome Empire:
Fridge Gnome

I just want them to fix the infection customization.

So Says Shadroxon.

If they add elites in multiplayer, I will buy Halo 4 in a heartbeat. But until that day comes, I will be happily playing Borderlands 2.

Then you will never buy halo 4. Ever.

Halo 4's multiplayer is spartan 4 training. No elites.

And you really wont buy a halo game if there arnt elites? This is a thing? Really?

Yep, get used to it. There was no real reason to remove elites from multiplayer in the first place.

I just want some more playlists, and then a good mappack.

My wish list:
More custom game options
Improved Forge. Instead of a Forge 3.0, we got a Forge 1.5
And please fix File Share. What the -blam!- is the hold up?

(along with an implied carbine buff)


If this happens, prepare for a new wave of butthurt. Seriously, mark my words. The carbine can already outshoot any precision weapon. So buffing it will just make it more powerful. Which I am fine with, seeing as I seem to be the only one in the game that uses it.

No, I mean 1.5. It's a downgrade from Reach's.

There's still no team doubles which really bothers me.

  • 12.05.2012 9:33 AM PDT

A competitive players main goal is to win.
A casuals main goal is to have fun regardless of whether that results in a win or loss.
It has nothing to do with individual skill or knowledge, it has to do with the reason you play.

It better include a matchmaking fix, if I can't play the game with my friends, it isn't worth my time or money.

Though the morrow may be barren of promises, nothing shall forstall my return.

Yea, one of the things in the recent podcast that was mentioned was that they are aware of the BR-DMR imbalance and will fix it (along with an implied carbine buff)
Posted by: Onca Rapotee

There is an advantage of DMR over BR, but it is only slight speed, slip size, and more accurate. The Carbine is fine the way it is, with its speed it will wreck a DMR user in 1v1 if you are a half decent player.
