I for one, think static weapon spawns gave the game far better tactical gameplay. For instance, you see a banshee in the air and you run over to the heavy weapon spawn. That then allows you to counter the banshee. Now if there was random weapon spawning, your team would be subjected to running around everywhere looking for the appropriate weapon while getting raeped by said banshee. That's what I love about Halo, there's always a counter to everything else and you know where it is.
E: I make an exception to this rule when there's some kid who takes the sniper rifle and runs to the enemy side of the map screaming SNIPERGODDEATHWARRIOR IS IN DA HOUSE and instantly gets taken down.

I agree completely. However things like 'tactics' and 'learning curve' and 'depth' and 'challenge' don't sell as well as random chaotic bullshit.
Re: Halo 4, still isn't on PC
I would be okay with power weapon spawns having nav-points marking their spawn.
Re: Halo 4, still isn't on PC
I like the idea of choosing my starting weapons (within reason, needler yeah sure but pp + br = oh god why), but i'm on the fence about random spawns and how much faster the game is going to play. Need to wait for more videos I guess.

That's how it's going to be.
Re: Halo 4, still isn't on PC
Ok. So we won't actually have to run around the map not knowing where the weapons are.

Pretty sure that's how they said it works. A la Firefight weapon drops.

No, and the weapon spawns aren't entirely random either. It's more like you have a few presets where the power weapons could spawn, and it spawns at one of them. Frankie even said that the spawns were predictable too.
So no, you won't be walking around to find a Rocket Launcher randomly spawn in front of you.
