Nowhere did they state the AR was the starting weapon.
Am I the only one who wants SMG starts?
There comes a point when people jump to such ludicrous conclusions with such over the top levels of overreaction that you have to take a step back and admire it. Then read the retorts of, 'but it's your fault for not explaining every obvious possibility!'

I remember a point at which people thought AAs were a good idea, even on this very forum.There comes a point when people jump to such ludicrous conclusions with such over the top levels of overreaction that you have to take a step back and admire it.

Wait, why is everyone going insane over one match they played without BR starts? I mean yeah, I doubt BR starts will ever happen in a Halo game, but you can't jump to conclusions over one game between 343 employees. They could have been playing any gametype.
You can only get so professional with the AR.He's a professional at what he does. BACK OFF.
First perks, now fucking AR STARTS
wow
WOOOOOOOOOW
343 just doesn't get it
WTF, shotty sniper starts!?! Ugh, Halo 3 and Halo Reach all over again.
Nowhere did they state the AR WASN'T the starting weapon though, right?
That's what I thought
Why Frankie
fucking WHY
<3Hey, I didn't come to that conclusion when I skimmed through the update earlier. Just saw a bunch of posts a few pages ago and it caught me off guard. Thought it was confirmed or something.
Hype is a beast that needs fresh meat in quantity to stay docile.There comes a point when people jump to such ludicrous conclusions with such over the top levels of overreaction that you have to take a step back and admire it.

Why jump when you can jetpack?Where is the jump to conclusions mat when you need it?
Why play Reach when you can turn off your 360?
I'm not jumping to conclusions, just hoping for the best.

While I don't think BR starts will happen across the board (if trueskill would just do its job, they'd be fine), I definitely believe there will be many playlists that have them, if not most. If playlist setup ends up similar to Reach's....I can't even imagine the flaming that a certain OuterWorldVoice would endure here and everywhere else. Haha, you think the Waypoint forums are bad...
But I digress. If I were in charge of Halo 4's playlist management, I'd consider having a low-level playlist, or just some way to allow players that aren't great with precision weapons to play other players of the same caliber and playing style, and let them have their AR fun. Although like I said, if trueskill would actually perform as it was intended to, separate playlists wouldn't be necessary, these matchups would just happen on their own.
Perk: AR Jammer
Like I said AR heroes, make it happen, put all of the perks or armor abilities or whatever the fuck in there too I don't need 'em.
IronicIf I were playlist manager I would make everything BR starts and have one playlist called 'AR starts for everyone!' and secretly still have BR starts. When a match in that playlist begins the announcer will whisper "Adapt".
Like I said AR heroes, make it happen, put all of the perks or armor abilities or whatever the fuck in there too I don't need 'em.
Seriously. You'd think 343 would've learned by now. My God.lol.
I cannot stand how we're continuing to use AR starts in this game. Eh!
I find this concept hilarious, put all of Halo 4's "problems" explicitly based on Devo's bitching during MM sessions into one playlist and let the rest of the playlists be rid of them.
Seriously. You'd think 343 would've learned by now. My God.
AR starts?! REALLY FRANKIE?!
Uhh, preorder cancelled before even placed.
Halo is gross. Except for Reach.
From the bitching that goes on in this thread more than a couple people would agree and love it. So shush.

Just because I find it funny doesn't mean I don't agree with it. ; )
I know how much you want this, as I'm sure we all do, but I can assure you this won't happen. Not at launch anyway. I'm willing to bet the majority of Halo player's suck. Imagine a bell curve that's skewed more towards suckiness. We're good-great players. A lot of people are not and no, they don't suck because all they have been given is an AR. They just suck. Giving them BRs or whatever isn't going to suddenly make the game better for everyone.
That just might be the safest assumption in the history of the universe.I'm willing to bet the majority of Halo player's suck.
Giving everyone BRs off the bat would at least make it so I don't have to spawn with a shit ass close range weapon while the other team has scooped up all of the br/nr spawns.
I'd like to congratualte heckfu, cyren, and monsterfracas for picking the correct team. And I would like to laugh at juices, lybertyboy, vhfive, steelyuhas, duncan, hydra, and tawpgun for picking the wrong team. And everyone can laugh at hyper for signing up, but not filling out a bracket.
You can continue with your Halo bitching now.
It also would defeat the purpose of any other gun in the sandbox besides power weapons.
Which isn't a good thing, they just need to radically overhall the current sandbox, as most weapons in Reach are useless.

Not if they made it like Halo 1 where the close range weapons have effectiveness. Such as the plasma cannon slowing someone down so you can fire and melee them to death. The AR can still be a powerful close range weapon as well, the problem with it right now is it's so damn easy to use you barely have to aim with the fuckin' thing.
Yeah right, do you mean to tell me that the AR, Shotgun, and PR all had some utility in CE? You've obviously never played against any decent pistol users.
Pfft, did any of those scrubs pick VCU?

Nades were useless too.
