Games Other Halo

Game is looking fantastic. I had lots of concerns and still have some but all the goodness seems to be out weighing the negatives. The game looks like it will have a lot of new gameplay mechanics but still has a solid Halo core which is great. Campaign looks amazing and MP is looking promising.

Hardlight shield was definitely a concern of mine but looks fine and could actually be cool. BR looks fantastic. Scattershot looks glorious.

I’m sure the game won’t be perfect when it’s released but I think it will be solid. I got stuck playing a bunch of pre-Title Update games in Reach today and was having a horrid time dealing with the bloom which made me realize how crappy Reach was when it first came it. Halo 4 seems like it will be better at launch.

Anyway, overall game seems to be a lot different than past titles but not really in a bad way. My concerns of COD comparisons have largely been put to rest although I am still skeptical of Ordinance drops.

Any way those are my thoughts. Just wanted to share my approval of what has been seen over the past couple days.

No worry about Drops. They are only in Infinity Slayer, a variant of Slayer.

According to various people on the Forums (yeah I know, getting info from forums ftw) they are only in certain gametypes.

hardlight shield increases your defence but sacrifices your ability to shoot and makes u move slow

Just a little thing about the hardlight shield, it’s ineffective against explosives, as revealed in this video.

Just to help calm those nerves :stuck_out_tongue:
