Would anyone be down to get a group of 4 and start a legendary run in Halo 4? I'm trying to take a break from matchmaking for a night tomorrow.

Got my first sniper kill frenzy tonight. Dominion is pretty fun, even if it is on Exile every time.
 
Siiiiiiiiiiiiiigh.

Halo 4 matchmaking.

*shakes head*

Ah well, at least in CTF, I can deal team damage and take out my frustration with my moron teammates on them. I've perfected the art of taking pot shots at them while they're in fire-fights, to ensure they NEVER win. But I NEVER get the betrayal. It's a beautiful thing.

So can we make a list of Halo weapons that don't need to have ever existed?

Brute Shot : Ugly, ineffectual and annoying

Concussion Rifle: See Brute Shot

Beam Rifle: We have a sniper rifle

Binary Rifle: We have TWO sniper rifles

Light Rifle: How many fucking carbines and rifles do we need?!

Incineration Cannon: Because why AIM a rocket launcher?

Boltshot: Who OKed this shit?

Spikers: Oh for the the love of....
I had fun with all of these weapons in their respective games.

Except for the Concussion Rifle/Brute Shot, only because it isn't satisfying to shoot, even if it does bounce people around.

Unavoidable? Remind my Needler when I fire it. Damn near every needle goes around my enemy. It is frustrating because I die constantly by it, but it never works for me.

This. :(

Once I got the achievement in Halo 3, I never touched it again.

BruteShot and Concussion Rifle are golden for glitchers, I almost feel like thats why they are in the game besides from Halo 2 where they played a big part in the campaign. So very very helpful.
 
K I'm going to make a list of things Halo needs to get back to the throne. I want you all to quote it and repeat the words "I Agree" Do not disagree with certain parts do not do anything but type "I Agree" because if all of this is not done, I can guarantee you CoD will beat Halo again. Even if all this stuff is incorporated it will only have a fighting chance of competing with CoD.

1. 60 fps
2. Dedicated Servers
3. Campaign Theater back
4. An improved map editor
5. No Sprint Default
6. No Loadouts
7. No AA's
8. Equipment that take place of AA's
9. Powerups back on map
10. Simple maps with less scatter everywhere, simpler hallways, doorways
11. More small maps
12. An actual ranking system
13. Fileshare that works
14. Ordnance system absolutely gone, weapons on map again
15. Forge improved dramatially.
16. Custom button configurations
17. X-Y sensitivity axis differentiation
18. Effects/Music/Voice differentiation
19. Real FFA playlists
20. Real Mercenaries (No Parties playlist)

At the VERY least.

Have they hired you yet?

Reach Needler >>> H4 Needler. The fat that the H4 needler doesn't need to break shields to supercombine is negated by the bloom or spread or whatever makes half my needles miss their target by a mile. Neither version of the gun is going to get you more than one kill per clip, but the Reach version is at least more consistent in getting that kill.

Still, the Needler is still going to be the second weapon I get the Mastery commendation for, after the BR.
 
Can someone fill me in on the joke about juices asking for my gamer tag? I feel so lost on HaloGAF sometimes

Sorry was away. Just wanted to see the stats. Usually people that optimistic are just bad at Halo and casuals so they cant see all the things wrong with the game. You seem alright though, you played almost 3 days of H4 MP...thats nuts.

I guess I dont get how people can think MM is fast and JiP works smoothly cause all my experiences are me staring at cards waiting for games, and then the matchup isnt even close.

Ahh I see.

The first couple of weeks for me were fucking terrible - constant poor connections, long waiting times, shit matchups etc. Then sometime around the title update (I'm sure it's unrelated) things just started to click. Connections got a lot better, I was in matches a shit load quicker, and JiP started to work for me albeit sporadic.

There are some off nights to be sure - but in those cases, I just swap to another game and relax - leaving Halo for another night.
 
Do you guys think it'd be worth it to have the Grenade Launcher return, make the Sticky Detonator a Covenant weapon, and then add in a Promethean grenade launcher (which is a bit more unique and will be explained in more detail at a later date)? Or would that be too many?

Waaaayyyy too many.
 
Sigh.

Halo 4 is a very, very bad multiplayer game.

I mean... wow.

It's like... 343i inherited this wonderful nut of gameplay from Bungie. And then, what they chose to do, was throw that nut into a boiling, bubbling cauldron of shit. And the only people STUPID enough to keep reaching into that scalding, stinking feces and hope to grasp at that nut are Halo fanboys and delusional diehard fans.

Think theres enough one shotters w. splash damage for noobs to still miss and get damage out.

People who defend the bolt shot are like the people in the first constitutional congress that rejected the revolutionary war because they were puritans and therefore anti war. Shit sucks. Stop shitting the thread with discussion about it. Its gonna get taken out.

Will you guys just quit halo and play fifa13 with me and heckfu?

Only if we can unlock it for loadouts as a secondary weapon at level fifty.

Woah woah woah.... caaaaaaaaaareful.

You can't just go from Halo 4 to a good game.

You ever seen the Concentration Camp episode of Band of Brothers? At the end they start feeding the prisoners bread, and then they're told that they can't do that, because if you feed a starving person too much, too soon, it could shock their system and kill them?

Same logic applies. You have to work your way up dude.

Try something just marginally better first, to get acclimated. Like Superman 64 or Drake and the 99 Dragons. Baby steps man.

League of Legends or actually any other game!

I really don't get people who get this mad and still play it. At this point you are more the problem then the game.

lol you always get mad.
The fact that you see nothing wrong with his post is really baffeling, but at the same time I am not suprised you would side with him. Ohh wait, can't wait to see you discard this post and keep drive-by trolling!

Holy shit. Spot a ghost gliding towards me. Throw a sticky at it, jump and it flies past me. I land and hear: "Suiiicide" - Wut.

This made me laugh. 9.8/10. Amazing.

Let's at least give credit to 343i for adding in the BR to Halo 4, that must have been a hard decision.
 
Something weird was happening tonight in Halo 4, 3 instances during a match on swat I go to fire my weapon a couple of times and out of nowhere it decides to switch pistol for me. I have full ammo and my finger is nowhere near Y, what gives?

The UNSC just sent out an APB to inform Pelican pilots to not allow Nowise into their ships.

Yah, this one isnt that cool though as you can only fly in that little area, or else you will deload., so Im not gonna make a video and all for it, as you use the same near method as the last one (have someone get into pelican seat, then run into loading zone, pelican falls with no pilot, fly it).
