Sam The Great Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 343 left out a ton of customization options we had in the past 2 Halo games for our custom gametypes. For me at least, there is practically no point to forge because I won't be able to create a proper infection/Flood variant for the map to work best. You cannot change the Flood/human loadouts, you cannot change the human colors, you cannot change scoring options, you cannot enable/disable the Flood appearance in case you want to make a minigame not revolving around Flood/zombies, etc. And then of course the options are cut down fairly severely for other gametypes as well, including some gametypes not appearing at all. No Assault, no one sided CTF with flag dropping/picking up, no VIP, no race mode. We cannot change each gametype to our own liking to the same degree as we could in the past. As far as custom games go, Halo 4 is a big step backwards, for now at least. Is there hope to get options back in patches/title updates, or do I need to move on and forget about custom games? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterGunz67 Posted November 8, 2012 Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 I totally agree. I have been severely let down with the amount of options that are available. I'm not sure why they thought it was a good idea to remove many of the settings that actually let us customize things in meaningful ways, hence, "Custom Games".

Ghora Posted November 8, 2012 Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 Are you serious? Damn, that's it, I'm not going to buy it. The only thing that gave the halo series lasting appeal was the custom games. But even those needed more. LESS options?! Yea, no thanks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterGunz67 Posted November 8, 2012 Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 I wish it was a joke. We can still manage to have some fun but it would be so much better with expanded options. At LEAST give us back the old ones! If it does happen, it'll probably be in the form of paid DLC or some other nonsense like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minispawn5609 Posted November 8, 2012 Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 Yea like weps dont spawn in flood mode, and its greyed out. Like they actually went out of there way to make it so you can never have weapons on the map during flood. They pretty much butchered custom games, you cant even set the zombie loadouts. I dont understand how they can move forward with everything then take a huuuuge step back to halo 2 status in custom games. The game is good but I just cant make sense of how they left it so lacking. I guess 343 just doesn't have the same attention to detail that bungie has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRex Trying Posted November 13, 2012 Report Share Posted November 13, 2012 I was looking for ways to change game types to support team-specific loadouts... but this thread seems to confirm that there is no hope of this... at least for now. I have some great map/gametype ideas as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rider92 Posted November 14, 2012 Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 Same here I was like "wtf!" no one sided ctf! What's going on 343? Campaign was pretty solid but you forgot about forge!!!??? Bring it all back. VIP, race, assault. Give us our creativity back! Without it you wouldn't have zombies and races and grifball in the first place! 343....are you listening??
