56 year olds who live with their parents wont be supporting Halo 4?

Good
They make more money than you.


And?
I don't know why you dislike them. They enjoy gaming in there own way, just as you do yours.

No reason to insult a group of people that you've never even played with.

>Implying MLG playlist's are more competitive then default rules.

Oh hurr durr, lets run around with the one OP starting weapon in the game because all the other weapons are too randumb and casul.

Horse -blam!-


You must be incredibly bad to get that worked up over it.

And to everyone that puts down MLG, you more than likely aren't encountering anyone that has even competed in a tournament. They are all just a bunch of wannabes that have above average skill and they stomp you and it hurts your feelings. If you really expect those people to leave just because MLG might not support Halo then you are in for a rude awakening.

Personally, I hope MLG drops Halo. That way they can put an actual good game in its place.

Your title is wrong. It should be "MS/343 stops supporting MLG"
The only reason Halo 4 won't be on the circuit is because MS hasn't shown interest in making a deal, as they are already with Virgin Gaming.

I'm not really an Apple person (Bananas forever) but damn, that's kinda sad.

That's a shame

MLG has been an integral component of the Halo community for a decade; for them to drop Halo 4 only a few months after release is a huge blow both to 343 and the community as a whole. In case you guys didn't know, MLG had its hand in the production of Halo 2, 3 and Reach via official feedback to Bungie. They not only improved the series, but made it more inclusive to a broader ranger of players. Hoepfully MLG returns with Halo 5, or MS makes a deal with them.

343 needs to smarten up and fix their game

Perhaps I misread the tweets, but it seems as though 343 is responsible for them not using it. Not a choice by MLG.

Name's John. I'm a 21-year-old firefighter/EMT from lolhio who doubles as a die-hard Halo fan. I've been enjoying the franchise since 2001. My favorite iteration of Halo would have to be Halo 2 simply because I never got to experience the joy of a full-on Halo: CE LAN.


If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Oh yeah, and boot Zome.

Agreed. All the changes are good and add variety. Do we really want another Halo 3? Just running around with one gun and no armor abilities? It's good that 343 wants to try something new. Do we really want the same thing for three more games?

Reread it, MS won't support MLG, not MLG won't support H4.

Derp.
And the head of MLG saying that he's going to support CoD instead of Halo.

Derp.

I thought MLG was all about competitiveness. And yet, they plan to support CoD.

I watched the first game [and probably the final as I'm not up-to-date] of the MLG Series on Waypoint last night. It was entertaining to see just how good I could've been in Halo 4's MLG court.

Oh, re-reading the thread, the post above mine corrects me in my mistake. 343i/MS stopped supporting it, which seems more logical than MLG backing out.

Thank you, man-whom-quoted-man-above-me.

So stupid. Based off all the livestreaming I've seen of MLG players, the gametypes/maps would work so well. I can't believe they can't make this work out...

And we BETTER still get an MLG playlist online. I refuse to play completely unskillful playlists like Infinity Slayer for the next year...

Recon Number 54 -
If they are still looking, then while holding the snarl, I let drool start to drip from my mouth, I stand, curl my fingers into claws and with a hunched over crouch, I then make slow and deliberate steps towards them. When I get close enough, I let them hear my agonized and gasping growls and then, if they continue to stare, when I get within arm's reach? I kiss them on the nose, and run away giggling.

Oh no! What a nightmare!

Why would they Halo 4 is awful.

  • 12.30.2012 10:55 AM PDT

The lack of intelligence in this thread is disturbing, on the 1st two pages I only saw one post that got it right. There is currently a contract with Virgin Gaming so MLG CANNOT, I repeat, CANNOT have any tournaments for Halo 4. How long that contract goes for, nobody knows. Get the facts right before you say MLG dropped Halo 4 because it "sucks". I'm not a MLG player but I can read a simple Twitter post.

  • 12.30.2012 11:00 AM PDT

Lol at all the mindless MLG hate. Blaming a community for your interaction with a few members of it is always a silly idea.

Side Coversation: At high level play where everyone has everything unlocked, wouldn't loadouts techically provide a level playing field in that everyone has the same opportunity to spawn with everything?

Halo 4 has problems, but I don't think loadouts are neccessarily one of them. I always thought that they provided a way of specializing your role on the team, and letting players invest themselves into using a certain abillity is never a bad thing ("You're a Hologram fan? I'm more of a Thruster Pack guy myself...")

There are most likely problems with specific armor abillities and problems with specific armor modifiers and problems with allowing specific weapons to be chosen in the loadouts (or with those weapons themselves), but I don't think that the idea of loadouts are competitively flawed.

Or are we talking about some other feature specifically?

I think it would be different if most and/or all the custom game options from Reach and Halo 3 had remained intact. It baffles me as to why 343i gutted custom games the way they did. If I was a paranoid person I would think they did it on purpose as to force the player base to get used to their form of halo.

But I'm not a paranoid person and I don't put a whole lot of stock in conspiracy theories.
