Subject: I do not find a single playlist in Wargames fun

"If you want to test a man's character, give him power" -- Abraham Lincoln

I never thought I'd actually say this, but I might just forget about Halo 4 MM actually go back to Reach MM. Every Halo 4 match for me has just been filled with frustration or outright rage. I find most of the weapons utterly useless and teamwork is non-existent. On top of that, I really do believe that dynamic spawns and non-symmetrical maps have severely harmed multiplayer. I mean, its not that hard to get frustrated when you spawn right next to or in front of the enemy.

Out of the probably 10 games I've played today I've been able to finish one.

For now I just play Spartan Ops because even thought it can get repetitive its far more fun to me than MM.

I do think if the weapons were re-balanced and the spawns were fixed the game would be much better. But right now it just feels like a chore to finish a single game in any playlist.


EDIT: For discussion value, what playlists do you find fun, or at least bearable?

There's a “U” and “I” in union but just an “I” in my beliefs

Neither do I.

I thought I was the only one for a bit. I often spend a minute or two trying to pick a playlist that will be enjoyable, but everytime it just turns out frustrating and I go back to Spops.

What are we supposed to be discussing here?

I don't seem to be having the same problems others are having. My only real complaint is the lag.

Team Regicide is fun.

You finished 1 out of 10 games? That's just you overreacting.

  • 12.06.2012 12:28 PM PDT

I haven't played it as much as some people, but I'm having fun with it.

I don't see the problem.

I mean, I tried it and it is fun at times, but since I spend a lot of the time as king it can be annoying since 1) my team never works to defend the king and 2) getting teamed up on

I can play SWAT because I get on average 22-ish kills a game but that gets boring quick, so sometimes I'll play Big Team just to "play" on Ragnarök (Valhalla remake) and by playing I mean driving around and trying to sneak to enemy bases for no reason. I don't go out of my way to get kills.

Well I probably only did about 5 games in Wargames and the other in Spartan Ops.

And I thought I was alone on this. It gets even better when I'm in a party. We're all sitting in the lobby, and I hear, "Hey Merc, what should we play?" And I reply with "Something good." And the party ends up sitting in the lobby.


I hope the custom community gets a' rollin.

ALL HAIL THE MIGHTY CHROME.

What OP is really saying: "Guys, I'm a pissy -blam!-, and I suck at Halo."


I find all the game types extremely entertaining and I think that Halo 4 has some of the funnest multi-player I've played in a long time. Couldn't find any games I found interesting until this game came out, and now I'm really into it. I love it.

I think you are ten years old because it doesn't seem like you were old enough to play Halo 3 when it came out.

And I'm good at the game, it just has -blam!- parts of it.

I don't understand your reply. Are you trying to discredit the post you quoted?

For the record, I agree with the post. It's a pretty accurate description of how I interpreted the OP.

  • 12.06.2012 12:40 PM PDT

Seems more like a personal problem to me. There's a ton of variety in the playlists. Lighten up and just enjoy the game.

The MM playlists are VERY hit and miss. Team Regicide is fun, but I'm still pissed over the lack of BTB Objective. And as far as spawns go, I agree with OP, I have a remake of Halo 3's Octagon with the spawns placed exactly like they were in Halo 3 yet I find people still spawning right next to me rather than across from me.
