ammo gives you an extra mag when you spawn.
you can't spawn with a sniper.

Exactly. Most of the weapons you spawn with have so much ammo that you either get a refill from picking up more ammo on the map, or dying before it's empty. Sniper, Rockets and other power weapons that you can't spawn with would make a difference with an extra mag, but since you can't spawn with those unless you're in certain gametypes (in which you'll most likely have infinite ammo anyways) they won't be affected by this.

You can only spawn with set loadouts like in Reach.
[QUOTE=Janus Vesta;38147855]You can only spawn with set loadouts like in Reach.[/QUOTE]
No, you can make your own loadouts. You can only choose between a certain amount of weapons, however, and that list does not include power weapons such as rockets, a sniper or a sword. Shotgun might be in, I'm not sure about that though.

shotgun is there, along with ar, br, dmr and carbine - i believe those are all the primary weapons you can choose to spawn with. secondary weapon is one of the three (?) pistols.
the maps seem to be generally bigger, probably thanks to the sprint, which makes the shotgun a lot worse than what it was in reach.

The AR is also secondary w/ pistol and plasma pistol. AFAIK...
Shotgun as Unlockable Primary? I don't know how to feel about this if this is true.
I'm more concerned about being able to spawn with a plasma pistol+headshot weapon.

probably going to be nerfed a bit.
or so i hope.. i tend to like the mayhem of the smaller maps more than the very big maps so just gotta hope shotgun spam won't ruin them.

ugh why the fuck am i worrying, everyone's said the game is fucking great :v:
if some people play like assholes, play with friends. that's why one of my school mate's holding a launch party or whatever you want to call it

I don't really mind. The overcharged PP tracking wasn't that bad in Reach, and I remember only having problems with it whenever I wasn't expecting it. Seeing someone charging a Plasma Pistol and charging into you makes them easy to dodge imo.
Although you can make your own load outs, maps will still have their own preset load outs if you wish to use those.

It was so easy to hit people with the PP in Halo 3, Then Halo: Reach nerfed it and made it a bit more challenging. I didn't mind it all to much.

t-thats not a warthog sound, what are you doing 343i D:
Speaking of sounds, did anyone like Halo 1's Assault Rifle sounds better than the rest of the series' Assault Rifle sounds? It sounded like it had a lot of power to it. For some reason I like guns that sound like they have a nice "kick" to it.
[QUOTE=MadBomber;38148831]t-thats not a warthog sound, what are you doing 343i D:[/QUOTE]
It's close to it, but eh I'm fine the way 343 has taken Halo. The sounds imo, sound fucking beautiful.
the warthog sound is a bit weird yeah, but the other sounds are absolutely fantastic so i don't care that much.
the map looks like a lot of fun too
Does anyone have any pictures of the controller layouts? I hope they didn't change it too much from Reach.

They did. :/

I think 343 posted something about it but here.

They probably have a setting that allows you to change the controller layouts to previous titles. I think reach had that.
[editline]as[/editline]
Yeah I would use the recon setting because I think that was Halo 3's default setting
I'm happy that Recon didn't change that much. I felt very comfortable when I played at SDCC.
Def using the default settings, I've played too much reach to get used to anything else.
I'm going with Recon, i have that ingrained in my mind more than the original Reach set up.
[QUOTE=Highwind017;38149990]I'm going with Recon, i have that ingrained in my mind more than the original Reach set up.[/QUOTE]
I got used to Halo 3s set up (where recon originated from) and it stuck on since reach.
Bumper Jumper everyday.
I used Bumper Jumper all the time for Halo 3, and just sticked with the default Reach one since they were kinda alike. Bumper Jumper in Halo 4 seems kind of stupid since Sprint is mapped to A.
I rocked default controls sensitivity 4 on every game so far
Unforunately, Campaign might not have a Theater mode after all, just Multiplayer, judging by these menu screenshots.

Disc two has a Theater tab, yet disc one does not. You could access the Campaign footage from disc two, but it seems unlikely.
