Halo 4 Multiplayer Won't Have Spectator Mode
Shea confirmed that there will be no spectator mode in Halo 4. To some players, the omission of a spectator mode flies in the face of the studio's goal to develop Halo 4 as a competitive title, but most expressed their lack of surprise.
Other players were less affected by the news. @GrimBrotherOne dismissed spectator mode as a "waste of bandwidth".
The official response on the Halo bulletin called full spectator mode a "bandwidth hog" that they did not want to introduce into the game's competitive arenas, but promised that there would be changes to the post-death camera.

JohnTheProd Just to clarify, no Halo has had a spectator mode. Machinima directors use Theater Mode to record. Additionally, you can still observe teammates as you wait to respawn. The answers below me are misguided. You're welcome.
yes there is spectator mode. there is a thing where you can be a spectator not player. also you are right about machinima

Moto2014ScantyAnt Wait won't this affect roosterteeth? Don't they record in spectator mode?
You're right. That's how they make their machinima's I think. This is gonna mess stuff up for them!
Spectator mode, not Theater. Spectating is like when you watch someone else play while you wait to respawn.
Oh. Yeah, who gives a damn if that goes.

I thought they went into theater and did all the recording and cinematics and stuff. Spectator mode is after you die, you get to spectate your team mates and stuff.
yea that's what i though they did to.
