Halo Issues With Halo 4 (What went wrong)
- Thread starter ForbiddenEch0z
- Start date
I felt that Halo 4 was still a stellar addition to the franchise, but I think there are a few issues that could've made the game better:
- The lack of a "race" gametype in custom games. "Race" was one of my personal favorite gametypes in Halo: Reach, and I know I'm not alone. How could 343 miss that? It was so popular in Reach, that I thought they would even make a matchmaking playlist for it. Sure it was resolved with "racetracks", but that gametype still has some issues. If 343 is willing to fix this, then they may redeem themselves.
- The inability to change the weapons of the flood in the "Flood" gametype. Now, I understand that for matchmaking, this is a stupid complaint. That's why this complaint is pertaining strictly to custom games. I remember the good times in Halo: Reach playing gametypes such as "Trash Compactor" in which the flood would use gravity hammers in order to throw vehicles into a hole that launched them at the humans. Someone please tell me why the hell that's such an issue that they took it out of Halo 4. I was making a "Trash Compactor" map earlier, without realizing until I was finished that you couldn't change the floods' weapons.
- The fact that vehicles cannot go through the red part of a one-way shield. This one speaks for itself. This also has to do with the "Trash Compactor" map I was making.
- Having to use sponsors like "Doritos" and "Mountain Dew." Not necessary. Halo has a big enough fan base. This just introduced a new breed of community members that we will refer to as "wrong gamers", people who play the game only for its sponsors. I understand the legitimacy of their reasoning, but come on.
- No "Forge World". This is also a minor flaw. Don't get me wrong, "Impact," "Erosion," and "Ravine" are great maps, but they lack the feel and eye-appeal that "Forge World" made us love. I hope that a map pack in the future will include another "fully-forgeable" map.
To add on to the forge maps, the pieces weren't as good. I know alot of people prefer them over reachs but imo, they dont look as good
I agree completely. They were mostly just copies, but I was hoping for something different from Reach's stuff.
i only think forge was not as good as it could have been along with flood holding weapons and lack of gametypes and vecihles
so its essentially a place for haters?
have fun then
Exactly, threads like this are the reason alot of us are here instead of waypoint. Besides there's a modded gametype that's basically the old infection.so its essentially a place for haters?
Let me restate my issue. I hate it when people constantly make a big deal about it. I think it's okay for people to play both, but they don't have to constantly downplay the other game. I respect their decision, I guess I was just extremely vilified when I posted this.
No its callumVNETWoRk.
Its not in his fileshare you'll have to ask him about it.
Forge, quick time events, lack of vehicles, no elites o r invasion. One big problem I had with the campaign was that the biggest starships the covenant used were little battle cruisers, not even an assault carrier. I would like to see the infinity have a challenge.
