For being the official Halo website, Waypoint sure is horribly out of date. I was looking at the universe section, and the weapon descriptions are from Reach!!! Same for vehicles and lots of other stuff as well. Wtf, Microsoft? Check it out.
-
I don't care if the vehicle roster dropped to 50% of its current size if they would bring back the Halo 3 system where your vehicle could be damaged to the point of near inoperability but wouldn't actually explode until you died. Or if they made the vehicles more impervious to small arms fire. Seriously, the 30 caliber bullets fired from the DMR should not so easily destroy armored vehicles; the same can be said for the other small arms. You can now spawn with plasma grenades and pistol; infantry can fight off vehicles with these. It is no longer necessary for small arms to damage vehicles so heavily. It would not be hard to introduce weighted damage on the vehicle hp.

Hornet is a good light transport but the Falcon is the equivalent of the Sky Warthog; it's much faster, promotes teamwork, and handled better. The hornet's ability to hover was cool, but it would never beat a banshee in a straight up fight. Now that 343 is bringing back power vehicles, I'd like to see the missile hornet. If I had to pick, I'd pick Falcon because I had more fun piloting it, but the two vehicles are really in a separate class so I see no reason not to have both.

SWAT do u not think DMR and BR should be made seperate?
Charlemagne replied to paulic83's topic in Halo 4
You could just not use the BR and then what is the problem? -
I think the whole "better armor" thing doesn't even count as evidence, and isn't necessarily even true.
-
The whole series is rather like a love story between Cortana and Master Chief, arguably platonic or not.

I was expecting some greater purpose to this thread other than what amounts to be a wiki entry.

Promethean's is what....Forerunners/Human?
Charlemagne replied to XenoPrometheanRunnerX98's topic in Halo 4
It's been awhile since I played but I think I recall that the Didact is using the Composer to steal the souls of human beings and turn them into mindless followers. They are not AI's, they are living beings trapped in a mechanical body and forced to do the Didact's bidding. I think some of the original Prometheans were Forerunners as well. -
I hope he is dead otherwise that last battle and the lost of Cortana become much less climatic, although I don't see who could possibly be the villain in the next game. Clearly, the Forerunners are the bad guys in this Trilogy along with the Storm Covenant. Maybe they will shift to them during the next game, trying to resurrect more Forerunenrs or some ****. And there are still the Halos.... That is what the game is titled.
-
I hope that she is dead simply because the effect would be lost if she turned out to be alive. I think it would be very poor writing to kill her like that and then undo it.
-
How is Cortana a "side character"? She has literally been with you as your guardian angel for the entire series. If you have no emotional connection to her at this point, then something is wrong with you.
-
Since the CSR is coming out I think people will be plenty busy doing that.
-
This is one of the reasons I am not even trying to release my game on XBL.
-
What do you mean "Assault Rifles"? The supresssor and AR? These are easily countered by one of the many headshot weapons you can spawn with, and the boltshot has been nerfed. Still really strong, but I think all of your complaints can be easily compensated for in game. I think other members of the community would agree with me.
-
I am pretty sure that the burst pistol is a prototype for the boltshot, and they probably intentionally left it wherever that guy found it as an easter egg. IF you look at the model and functionality, they are almost identical. Also it is clearly of Forerunner design.
-
The active camo is incredibly easy to detect and thus it is also easy to identify the guy. If you can't detect a camo camper, your doing it wrong. Also, he is supposed to have an advantage, because its his base you are running into.
-
You should use paragraphs. I can't read everything due to poor formatting, but I think they did a good job creating interesting weapons. Of course it is strange to have a 1 shot kill sniper rifle, but it also has far lass ammo and reveals your position. I think these two things balance it nicely. The suppressor is supposed to be good at close range, but not as good as the AR at medium; that's the trade-off. The Incinerator works fine as a bunker buster, that's the point of the gun. You seem to just be mad that there are lots of guns for different purposes. There are lots of guns that kill you in one hit, so I don't see the problem with the incinerator cannon.
-
Well, I understand why they did it from a design perspective: Due to ordnance and weapons spawning ion the map, there would be large amounts of power weapons on the map at all times. That being said, it still annoys me when I die and can't go get my gun or even tell a teammate to get it, but I guess that's the penalty for dying. Still, they don't disappear if you are in the area/look at it. I think it would probably be better to leave the system as it is, even though it can be frustrating.
-
I love shielding I use it all the time. It's great for the instant recharge, and you can also pop your opponent before his shields come back all the way.
-
There was a Head-to-Heads 1v1 playlist in Halo 3 for a while, ranked an everything, and it was just kind of dumb. Halo is meant to be a team game. The gameplay in 1v1 is silly.
-
I forgot Invasion even existed until you just mentioned it. Dominion is so much better than Invasion it isn't even worth discussing.
-
It is still a really good weapon and should not be in loadouts. It isn't overpowered anymore, but you still shouldn't spawn with a 1-shot gun.
-
The people who bought that have no right to be angry; buying an entirely new Xbox ONLY for the DLC is retarded; it would be neat if it was always special, but I don't see any reason not to release it. 343 isn't under some moral obligation to only let those people have it. In fact, it is cooler if everyone has access to everything in some reasonable way.
-
Cool; you probably should not use the 1 - 10 system, because it is really hard to accurately pick a number for such abstract topics.

Tech support happens. If people rage quit over a single issue then we wouldn't even have computers. Things change; the "problems" you posted are barely even gameplay related.
