Good Posts. I don't see these problems happening soon, but if not fixed they might lose CTF players b'cuz of it later on. Imo.

Yeah? If you absolutely have to play CTF as it appeared in Halo 3, play Halo 3. Since it's a custom game, you won't require matchmaking, so a dwindled population size is a moot argument.
If you are looking for extra credit for trade ins a lot of sellers let you put it as 50 shades of grey.
ArchedThunder change forum names?
The problem is that both of those games are so abysmally horrible that I stopped playing them years before their "lifespan" was through to begin with. So yes, there is a problem.

Oh yeah. Because it's so easy to gather eight friends to play a five-year old game.

I just played some Reach. WHAT
Couple of games of super slayer, had fun except that they felt like slow motion slideshows.. 30fps halo used to feel smooth to me before I got into pc gaming. Fuck.
Hire juices -> introduce 60fps mode with simpler visuals in one of the first patches for Halo 4.
Thanks.

That is never going to happen.
People said the same thing with Halo 2, Halo 3 and Reach.
I will never allow this to happen.

Yeah but they were all good enough to warrant that. Won't happen with Reach. Not possible.
Regardless of what they do to CTF - and I'm not up in arms over the changes - Halo 4 is the better game. I hesitate to make predictions about public reactions in general, but I think that's one thing that there will be relatively little debate about.

Based on the single game I played at PAX I can tell you, nitpicks aside, this is never going to be true.
lol
Amazon has a pretty good trade in price at $21.

Even if Halo 4 fails. (which it wont) it will still be a better game than Reach.
Seriously the last patch of Battlefield 3 was just awful. The Helicopter's are now totally useless. Not only that they removed the flares for the second gunner, no, they removed the under the radar function and you have a 50% chance to flare the IGLA and when it hits you, it's a one hit kill. Don't know, why they did this, IMO they could just increase the flare timer or add some mobile AA on other maps...
DICE is dissapointing me, since the custom browser patch...
reduce grenade damage compared to reach, guests only allowed in special playlists and at least 3 good maps, just these thing and it is better for me

Has it ever been acknowledged that additional armor is possible through DLC?
They couldnt do it with Reach, was this simply because Reach wasnt a flexible enough system to allow it?
With 343 handling Halo 4 from the beginning do you think they left the side door unlocked so they could work this in later?
Not so I can get my hopes up for Mk V coming to the game, just as a technical question on the possibilities of post-launch non-map content

All you had to say was: They kept the AR but they didn't keep the helmet.
Not that I have strong feelings one way or the other in regards to this.

What if the Mark V helmet is a 343Industries Employee exlcusive? You know like the flaming helmets in past games.
I would laugh my ass off.

Or, you know, the people who want to win the CTF game.
I played it, the new rules are fine. Yeah, they aren't the exact same as Halo 3 or Reach, but they are fine. It's still CTF. Maybe I was blinded by how giddy I was to finally get points for driving the flag holder to the score, but it was still a lot of fun.
Flagnumsassination! +25!
Playing solo objective is going to be tricky in Halo 4. Dead silence on your team means it will be super hard to run the flag.
It should (in a way) promote teamwork, as without it you aren't going to win.

Are any of you guys confirmed to be going Eurogamer? If so, which days? I could put together a list (PM) if you want.

What happened to people who like to run the objective?
I think the Flag Runner and Flag Champion medals are really cool and definitely a nice way of seeing if players like Objectives in the long run. Maybe I'm a sucker for these things but I like the added emphasis on escorting the flag. Sure you'll die perhaps a bit faster now that you hold the flag but it's not as if they can return the flag any faster.
That's another thing. Defensive play is going to have to step it up too. The flag can't be returned and it's so much easier to pick up. The defensive line so to speak is going to have to set up in between the flag and the opponent's base. People sprinting in to touch it will be an annoying tactic if you defend to far ack into your own base.
Can't wait to see how competitive this goes.
