Define copy COD? They modernized the franchise by bringing in new features that Call of Duty didn't innovate on. Ordinance is more or less kill streaks but by the definition of a kill streak you have to stay alive. Ordinance can be called in and stolen, and is merely a weapon you can take to use for yourself if you take it from the ordinance caller. Sprint was in Reach and quite frankly isn't nearly as bad as everyone says it is. (Subjective) Loadouts were created to make a unique experience for everyone who played as they Loadouts were shared through all of the activities on the Infinty. Speaking of Loadouts Halo 4 seems to have a very balanced weapon sandbox making them less noticeable than everyone says they are. And the Loadouts aren't in every game mode. You want to play classic Halo just choose a different gametype than Infinty Slayer. Just vote for Legendary or Team Slayer and *boom* Your playing what you wanted from the game anyway. While they can be annoying and I don't favor them myself, they are avoidable, everyone just uses them as a excuse to hate on the game. You can not like the way the game feels, or the art style, or the fact that they replaced the multiplayer commentator. But the game is mocked far too much for what it did. Like it or don't everyone here needs to move on. The odds of 343i being able to restore Halo to what most of you want is less than likely. The franchise is going in the direction 343i wants it to go. We can only hope they will learn from the mistakes they have already claimed to have made.

  • other than the fact it is accurate as most current FPS have some perk/mod system or something like it. whether it is the character being modified or the gear they use.

  • He's listing facts, the majority of modern FPS games have a system of abilities that changes the way your online character performs. Call them perks, support upgrades, armor mods they all do the same thing. Now the fact that your being overly aggressive on a internet forum topic is uncalled for. I've stated my opinion, and someone has supported it. There is no need to start a fight with everyone who shares the same opinion. I created the reply and if you have a problem with the information I have posted above you can contact me.

  • What are you babbling about? I received a response stating something painfully obvious and I said "No shit". Stop trying to be an internet hero.

  • The reply was about how games including Halo are becoming "modern", now when the facts make sense you immediately point out that it's obvious that games have a perk system. Your pretty much backing me up in a really stupid way. Stop being a internet douchebagel. Your making your argument and yourself look stupid.

  • Not acting like a tool doesn't make you a hero. You can't arbitrarily call out halo for doing something other games are or have been doing.

  • [quote]You can't arbitrarily call out halo for doing something other games are or have been doing.[/quote]And why is that? Why can't I call Halo out for effectively ruining its traditions by implementing numerous features that can be found in practically any shooter on the market? Remind me.

  • That is why it is [b]arbitrary[/b]. In the midst of so many games modernizing you can't look at halo and then say everything is shitty and unneeded. This is [b]common[/b] and halo has fallen behind with that. Which is exactly why people were bitching during halo 3 about it not having the very things it now has. in which people are still bitching. [quote] Why can't I call Halo out for effectively ruining its traditions [/quote] Because the gameplay of halo 3 is nothing like Halo 2 and CE yet nobody wants to acknowledge that. same for reach. All of a sudden halo 4 is messing everything up when it has been changing over time to accommodate this shitty fanbase. [quote]practically any shooter on the market?[/quote] Shooter games also have guns. do you want to complain about how the guns themselves are more modern now or are more alien in design?

  • [quote]In the midst of so many games modernizing you can't look at halo and then say everything is shitty and unneeded.[/quote]And why not? Why. The. -blam!-. Can. I. Not? [quote]people were bitching during halo 3 about it not having the very things it now has[/quote]Oh cool. Looks like we ignored the stupid ideas back in those days. [quote]the gameplay of halo 3 is nothing like Halo 2 and CE yet nobody wants to acknowledge that. same for reach[/quote]Because people generally had no problem with the changes from 2 to 3. DID YOU EVER THINK OF THAT? I bet not. The population is an absolute testament to it. Reach was widely considered a low point for the series by competitive players. You believe nobody acknowledged the differences between Halo 3 and Reach multiplayer? That's not even funny stupid. That's tragically stupid. [quote]All of a sudden halo 4 is messing everything up[/quote]Tell me something I don't know. See: Halo 4 Population Statistics. [quote]this shitty fanbase[/quote]Hahaha. [quote]Shooter games also have guns. do you want to complain about how the guns themselves are more modern now or are more alien in design?[/quote]This logic is straight-up disgustingly stupid.

  • [quote]And why not? Why. The. -blam!-. Can. I. Not?[/quote] I just said why calling it arbitrary and by that extension hypocritical [quote]Oh cool. Looks like we ignored the stupid ideas back in those days. [/quote] No, The point is there are things people have gotten that they didn't originally have which they asked for. [quote]Because people generally had no problem with the changes from 2 to 3. DID YOU EVER THINK OF THAT? I bet not. [/quote] Which wouldn't add up with all the complaints surrounding halo 3 at the time. IT was largely popular because of this MLG attitude and those who like that. [quote]The population is an absolute testament to it.[/quote] Rather misleading seeing as i see more comments made about who made the game rather than the game itself. Meaning the dislike my be amplified or even projected on the game because of the fact bungie didn't make it. [quote]You believe nobody acknowledged the differences between Halo 3 and Reach multiplayer? That's not even funny stupid. That's tragically stupid.[/quote] Context. You are spending more time being emotional instead of actually reading and thinking about what i am talking about. [quote]See: Halo 4 Population Statistics.[/quote] See reach's [quote]This logic is straight-up disgustingly stupid.[/quote] Again you completely missed what was being stated. I was mocking your logic so you pretty much called yourself out.

  • *sigh* I don't care any more. You're obviously not going to give a damn what I have to say and I'm [b]sure as hell[/b] not going to give a damn what you have to say. Believe whatever you want. None of it really matters in the end.

  • I do care what you have to say. You are just spending more time trying having an attitude or completely blowing over the points made.
