Nice. Makes you wonder why there even is ADS in that case. Can't really come up with any reason to use it since it doesn't seem to zoom much either.

I just saw that guy sprint with the pistol...
WTF

Appearances, chap.
...for nothing? I dont think the major issue was just the ADS. What about all the other shit that they threw into Halo 4 that is also in this one? Are we just going to ignore that now and sit on a high horse?

For people saying aiming down the sights is the proper way to shoot a weapon, stop and think for a second -- this is a game about heavily modofied cyborgs in the future.
Spartans don't need to aim down no stinkin ironsights, maaaaaaan. They're like highly advanced RoboCops.

Halo is built around ramps and flat surfaces for the purposes of grenades. Geometry such as stairs and wall clutter means grenades bouncing back in your face instead of going where intended.
343i re-redeemed?
Glad to see it's only cosmetic, while I personally wouldn't mind ADS I also think it'll ruin what makes Halo, well.. Halo.

Is the boosting going to be a perk/loadout, or is this baseline movement going to be standard like in titanfall/cod:aw?
I like the increased mobility in those shooters nowadays, even the slow space jetpacks like in destiny.

So...do we feel silly?
Choice I guess. For Halo and CoD fans to unite?

AAAHAHHAHAHA, oh my god. This actually pisses me off than anything else.
What the actual fuck , 343? Makes absolutely no sense. Halo will never be the same
Yes to ADS, sprint, perks, loadouts, AA's (aka spartan abilities), infinity drops, weapon attachments, ability to unlock weapons and armor with gameplay changing abilities, smg/AR starts, supers, and urban/human or brown/rock themed only multilayer maps. On and mantises (mantii?). All of that please. You guys just don't know what makes halo, halo ass halo. I do. Also ranks should NOT be displayed in pregame lobbies. Ugh I'm so tired of the e-peen jerks online that have to just rub it in your face how much better they are than you. I deserve the right to play anyway I want and I believe my way is the right way, just as you do.

I'm not an NPC. And neither are we.
just show us the footage, it leaked
Halo: Reach was my first Halo game I bought, used to play H3 always at my friends, bought the 360 with Reach, but I fail to see your point. There were stairs in Reach too?
They must not have been scoped in.

This..... looks kind of awesome.
Pleases 343 as long as no ADS is an option and the Halo feeling can be kept sign me up.
Please don't mess this up because this footage looks great.

I didn't expect them at all to take it out. During the beta everyone needs to cry for its removal, though.
I feel more confused than anything.
Stairs and thrown grenades never play nice. Just a complaint about level design lots of folks had. Grenades were always getting caught in stair steps.

That tweet has me fucking excited. The actual graphics and speed of the game look great from what I can see.

My big problem wasn't with ADS, it's still with sprint.
I'm still pissed.

If one player has it everyone will have it. They've said that every player in a match will be the same. Don't know yet if that means there will be "thruster pack slayer" or if that is just the default for all games.
It's actually REALLLY smart if you think about it, I know so many people who don't like Halo because its different, no ADS etc... This gives those players the illusion that this is still similar to other FPS's, but still Halo. This way it caters to more crowds.
Some people are just used to having to aim down sights every time you see an enemy.
Every pro knows no-scopes are where its at.

I'd be a little worried if you didn't feel at least a bit silly. Amirox for example was going nuclear.

There's some serious high horsing in here

So, what about all the other crap that bogs down MP?
Ordnance drops, perks, loadouts, etc. Is that all still in or what? Did Halo 4 support classic modes? Why wasn't it more popular if it did?

Guess they wanted to change the zoom functionality. I can live with that. I can honestly live with that. it didn't need to be changed, but I can live with that.

ADS may not be as bad as COD, but sprint is still in, no word on descope, and ADS obscures your vision, so it's still nothing to be happy about.
But you still lose a functional button on your gamepad to a redundant mechanic, which Halo can't afford to lose right now unless you lose melee to the right stick or something.
Not sure why people are already celebrating, we clearly still don't have the full picture.
