Boltshot ruined CQC.What was the point in picking up a Shotgun or Energy Sword when you can spawn with a 1-hit kill weapon?

I understand 343 wanted to have a unique weapon for the forerunner secondary and a Shotgun pistol sounds good on paper but in practice it's not a good thing at all.
the one true God is Doctor Doom and we should all be worshiping him.

It's either change or do the same thing every game and become stale and repetitive like Call Of Duty has. Albeit 343's changes weren't the best.

Why did the sound design for the shotgun also never reach the heights of CE? Same with the AR? Or the pistol? Or the fuel rod? Or the plasma rifle? Erm

Why is the Halo 4 Sniper Rifle so silly looking?Why could they never get the Flamethrower to be good outside of Halo PC?Why did they keep limiting Frag count when grenade spam is as sensible a concept as bullet spam?Why did Sword fighting mechanics have to suck shit after the Halo 3 melee system was dropped?Why was the Halo 3 melee system dropped?Why are there warning/hazard stickers on random places of the armor in Halo Reach?Who were the drunks that designed Halo 4's armor sets?Why do I have so many questions?
Why did ZBNS Reach, a near perfect Halo experience, get completely ignored by everyone?

And I wouldn't see what the point of keeping custom loadouts would be if you took out custom armor abilities, and made a lot of the weapons less niche.It'd be better to promote even starts, than letting the gameplay be so inconsistent and plagued with things like plasma pistol + sticky grenade spawns, perks, and other detriments.
How Halo 4 Could have been a whole lot better
