What kind of mod is it?

Wow 343, just wow.
I would love to play Haven snipes.

Still 3 maps rotting on my disc unplayed. WTH 343?
Rogue specialization. Support upgrade. Reduces your flinch when being shot while zoomed in.
I am not flinching at all when shot now. Sniper still makes you flinch pretty bad, though that's about it.

Man, Legendary Solo wasn't all that difficult at all. I think I had a harder time on Heroic.
What is that?

Aw, that's disappointing, I was really looking forward to this playlist. But big maps are no fun for snipes.
I'm playing through it right now, too. The first level has been the hardest so far for me, everything else hasn't been particularly difficult. Except for a particular part on the third level which was really difficult.
Just curious, are most Spartan Ops like the first two missions (aka just killing boring enemies)? I suppose so? The cutscenes are pretty cool (and good) but Spartan Ops is kinda a missed opportunity. I personally don't care that much, but how awesome could it have been if it was like Spec Ops in CoD? (Kill 10 hunters with only magnums, kill wave after wave of grunts, do a race Warthog etc. with zero respawns).

lol. 343... snipers with instant respwn is not a good idea.

I don't know what it is with the AI, but it's terrible in Spartan Ops. They either run straight at you or stand still when they don't know where you are.
are there any videos of it yet

Who is managing these playlists? They seem really out of touch.
Fuck.

Maybe playing episode 3 with more people is fun, but alone, it was a real dreadful experience.On the 4th mission,
Also, I still don't get why the hell the Covenant is still on Requiem. The first thing I would have done as captain is to make sure no Covenant ships are on/in/outside the planet. You have the biggest,most powerful ship in the UNSC army. Why won't you use the damn thing to hunt down the idiots who keep killing your men?
So many stupid things are happening, story and gameplay related. It really takes way from the enjoyment.
when the Manti dropped in, I was getting killed over and over again, trying to get to the vehicles. Not fun at all. Plus the mission(and other missions to)got artificially extended by just trowing more and more enemies at you. Not very fun.

Damn I'm always late to the party with Spartan Ops. I haven't even touched episode 2 because I've been just grinding to 50. And now I have to replay the campaign for the next podast so I don't have time for that. But shit, I should probably do all of Spartan Ops for the podcast as well! lol shiiiiiit

343i seems like they just want it their way or no way at all. We have and many others have gave their opinions on what would make H4 more enjoyable. Instant respawn should only be in Infinity and not in any other playlist/gametypes. I get they want their vision but come on.

Stuff like that happens all the time though. You can see knights big fat ass sticking out and they won't move or do anything until you take down their shields, and even sometimes then they don't move.
The AI is really bad in some places, mostly spartan ops.
I beat Ep 1 and 2 within a hour each solo Legendary. You can too!

That's what the minature Elites and Jackals I killed did when they died. Weird ass glitches in this episode.
Yea but I don't feel like I'm getting the full experience on solo.

Instant respawns suck in all of the game modes, I really hope that's something they back track on and admit it doesn't work.
I like to dream too.

Part of why Dominion is fun as shit with a full party of 12.Instant respawns suck in all of the game modes, I really hope that's something they back track on and admit it doesn't work.

Oh, and also, throwing hundreds of enemies with fuel rod guns at me isn't fun 343.

Meh, I've played them all (first 10 missions, haven't started episode 3 yet) except for 2 solo.

Spartan Ops continues to show some potential.
What's missing:
- ingame cutscenes showing your spartans at the end/start of each mission, or at least the start of the first and end of the last mission of the chapter. make the missions seem less disconnected. show my spartan manning the turret on the pelican on arrival ffs
- prometheans. fuck elites in this game, give me more prometheans.
- more MP maps please. I don't care about your canonical justification, but get exile and vortex and longbow in there. hell, just reuse some halo reach or halo 3 MP map geometry if you're desperate. highlands, timberland, avalanche, yes please!
just say they're carbon copies of the actual maps created by the forerunners or the eggheads on requiem or it's an offworld mission because the infinity left requiem for a day for a field trip or whatever. the story is basically crimson here, eggheads there and nothing more at this point, might as well go off the deep end.
Although admittedly, having halsey around could make things interesting.
Additionally, for me to pay for SpOps S2 onwards, I want new enemies, weapons and locations. If it's a rehash of the same 7 enemy types (what a laughably low count), I'm going to watch the cutscenes on youtube for the story and thats it.

I like to think that we will at least get adjusted spawn times in non Infinity gametypes. I really don't think you're supposed to spawn as fast as you do in something like KOTH, it starts at 10 and then magically drops to 3/Instant, hoping it's a bug.

Just give me classic playlists/gametypes and I'll be set. Literally will be in heaven with H4, this game has so much potential.
I know :/
Also, Bravo put out a pretty funny video on Camo Campers.

None of these shenanigans. Should be free, but they could hide it behind ARG stuff.
For DLC I want maps. Maps. Maps. Maps. Maps.
A hinge-head mention in SpOps... curse you Karen Traviss! I hope these episodes are leading up to a fight between Halsey/Chief and Palmer & her cronies and we get to put them down. Such awful characters in SpOps so far, the writing is pretty bad (although Episode 3 is better than the first 2, hopefully it keeps improving!)
At least these missions were more fun than the first ten.

lol, amazing that the guy sit there for that long. I'll never understand how something like that is even close to fun...
I was going through the artbook, and near the back it has art of the armor in multiplayer, and I believe I saw MK V armor. When I get home I'll check again, but I'm pretty sure that's what I saw, if so, make it happen 343!!
