I’m new to the forums, but I try to be on at least an hour a day to see what the community talks about and stuff, but also to see what you guys are doing with the game. I just barely got to reading the weekly article or blog (I know there’s a name for it got a brain fart here) and I gotta say the issues you guys have been fixing at least shows us you guys are there. You guys do care and you guys wanna better the game for us. Thanks a bunch and keep it up, great game you got here. Huge shoes to fill, but you guys are doing really good and are showing it.
Now to the rest of you guys, I know you hear this a lot, but based on the recent proof and action (map pack, update, etc), how are you guys feeling towards Halo 4? I personally have enjoyed it since day one, but those who did not think it was a very good game, how’s your current opinion? And those who already enjoy it everyday, how are 343i’s recent actions bettering the game for you?
I love it! Multiplayer is getting better every week. 343i is listening and making changes.
Loving how it plays, and it keeps getting better! I got Majestic, and the maps are awesome! The scenery on Skyline is fantastic too.
I’ve been a naysayer on this game. I really do not like it. Haven’t been following what they have been doing, so I can’t say anything about recent updates (I think I stopped playing in Dec).
So Conner, since the update is free, are you gonna go ahead and give it another shot or what Halo have you stuck with for now? A lot of people seem a lot more pleased now.
Welcome =D
After some of the network issues were ironed out, I have been having a blast. I still hope for some Objective and Heavies in BTB and a 1SK head shot for the pistol in Flood, then I will be extra good.
I want them to release more community maps so I don’t have to get these 2 map packs. They are only 3 maps each and I feel as though they could have been shipped with the game. I have high expectations for the castle map pack in that it’ll have a new forge environment with some actual scale, and maybe a flying UNSC vehicle(Man did I love the falcon and hornet). I see 343i slowly evolving into a great developer with this franchise. They’ve done well with the campaign and spartan ops in my opinion, usb ports aside and all.
Campaign wise I think it’ll be good to tell a dual perspective again with the Arbiter in the covenant. That way they can flesh out more of the story and give us some hints as to what Jul(the antagonist) will do with his group of covenant and the good doctor of course.
I would like the first season of spartan ops per disc free and available offline after a download. When the servers went down I wasn’t able to play them and that was a little disappointing. However, I would not like to see them available at launch, I would much rather having them more focused on its story, arenas and it should really culminate in a Reach like campaign where we were featured in the cutscenes and we actually did something to progress the story in every chapter, not just the last of each episode.
For war games:
BTB objectives
No personal ordinance in BTB
Modified loadouts in btb(secondary weapons and grenades are already chosen)
And add more things to the sandbox: Toys, Gadgets, FX, especially weapons and vehicles.
Forge: One or two massive environments(forge world sized) that feature those additional forge features.
Return of Firefight in Halo 5(just use environments from its campaign and that’ll be half of the work)
Bring the elite models back for us to use(even if we are on the infinity we are still allied with the arbiter as of this post and it wouldn’t be hard to have the sim expand across to other ships in the allied fleet as well) With this we can bring in cool elite gametypes and especially invasion which I loved in Reach.
Update theatre so it can be used in Campaign and Spartan Ops.
They’re listening to us and are making progress slowly but surely.
Yeah there are many more things they can add and experiment, may maps and gametypes. It’s what makes Halo so great, it’s so big. I’m looking forward to what 343i continues to do with hopeful patience.
I really like halo 4, I just miss playing with the people I played reach with. I was late getting Halo 4 because I was waiting to see if the limited edition would pop back up, and it did but it took awhile to arrive. I was talking with one of them on steam, and he said he was having a lot of fun and that halo 4 was awesome. However when it finally arrived, my internet had been shut of. I was stuck playing it offline until I payed the bill(which by the way was ridiculous).
When I finally got the internet back, I got on steam to tell him we could all go play it, He became a negative nancy, saying that Halo 4 was a horrible game, to much like call of duty, etc.
When I saw the halo 4 trailer during the e3, I really thought it was going to be a disappointment. In the end however, 343i proved they could make a solid title despite some flaws.
So thanks 343i.
