I won't even get into the idiocy of being able to spawn with plasma grenades and or a plasma pistol.

See, this is how I know you don't know what you're talking about. The Plasma Pistol is the most useful thing I ever spawned with.

Make an intelligent argument, then try again.
Yes, I know what I said. If you're going to be an ass try harder next time. The plasma pistol is the vehicle destroyer. It's hard enough to stay alive in a warthog as it is. People spawning with these makes it impossible. It is TOO useful.


Ah. Sorry. I guess I didn't pick up on the sarcasm, I was too busy sifting through the bull-blam!-.

You can rant or you can make an intelligent argument. If you have a point, I refuse to recognize it, because it's too couched in anger. But the two ARE mutually exclusive.
You must be an idiot if that comes across as anything but an argument to you.

This is like your 20th anti Halo 4 thread, and I've even complained on your earlier ones. I've said it to you before, and I'll say it again:

Please get that huge stick out of your ass and stop hating.

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

1.) Emblems being locked are stupid, I agree

2.) Loadouts, I see most people using all weapons except for the Magnum, I think the system works fine.

3.) Wait, back in Reach people complained about how you should have to "work" for your armor. That's how they implemented it in 4.

Wait, too in-depth? What shenanigans are these?

I believe the word the OP is looking for is cry-baby.

Having to get master commendations for certain pieces of armour is ridiculous. Some of the commendations will take forever even if boosting.
Plama Pistol Kills

Damage boost helps. -Blam!-ing 2 body shot shield pop!

I hate the armour. It seems like on some pieces 343 just rushed it to, so they could say that they made a lot. I mean come on, Vanguard is a freaking square! Seems like 343 went for Quantity over Quality.

It was more that they tried to outdo Bungie. Bungie armor was always just the default with pieces over top of it. 343i instead made a default model and then put their armor over it. The difference is very apparent, but I don't think they got the result they wanted.

Yeah I will say that many helmets are hideous and make no sense at all.

It was not so much the body pieces that got me, it was the helmets. EVA, Commando and a lot of other ones from previous games got screwed over. 9/10 Helmets 343 introduced looked like utter crap, like the defender, vanguard and ranger.

You had to do certain things to obtain armor pieces in Halo 3. I didn't see anyone complain then, so why now?

I agree there as well, it can all be grouped into "343i unique" just like the other "artistic changes" made in Halo 4.

Most of the armor looks terrible because the underlying "skin" of the Spartan is the same color as the armor pieces. There's no black connective fabric like there was in Reach and earlier so every Spartan looks like a mess of the Primary color.

Yes, one time events, or the achievement armors. You never had to spend hours working on this long term 14,000 kills with every single gun sort of bs.

The first thing I thought when I saw that Emblems needed to be unlocked was "Oh my god they've turned Halo into a Skinner Box."

Does it really matter. Most commendations only unlock variations of existing armors. The base armor is usually earned much easier.

  • 12.29.2012 5:26 PM PDT

Why Bungie, why would you do this?! - Halo Community

Locked emblems were a bit unnecessary, but I liked the armors being harder to get.

No, but I will single you out of the few others who have commented 3 or more times to say please shut up and get out. I haven't made one of these threads in over a month so your comments are baseless.

Well Aang I don't know about you, but getting the human weapons mastery will take a long long time. I just feel like it's sad that 343i feels the need to bleed it's playerbase like this instead of keeping them in with the fun of the game itself. I don't care about the armor, it's the principle. Oh and don't come at me with the whole "everyone else is doing it" thing. Companies SHOULD strive to set themselves apart from competitors.

Through playing a crap load of games and other such things. Rest assured there are no more one time unlock feats. It's all just there to keep you playing.

Nope.
