I would say so. Everything we have seen from it makes the final product seem better and better. It really looks like an awesome game worthy of overcoming the legacy that is Halo 1, 2 and 3.
I’ve always said that the next Halo will be the best with each Halo game and I haven’t been wrong(Except Reach, I never even said that for Reach actually). So I really do think Halo 4 WILL be the best Halo we’ve had yet.
And it really is saying something as each game in the series are masterpieces.
Possibly. 343i is putting a lot of blood and sweat into this game. With their great team and this awesome community, Halo 4 has the possibility of being an outstanding success.
I think it could possibly rival or surpass Halo 3. I know people give multiplayer a lot of weight to the game. Hopefully the campaign doesn’t deliver like Reach. I never felt ecstatic to play Reach campaign.
Give Halo 4 a campaign that is similar to the quality of halo 3 and Spartan ops a success without less firefight lag, then you already are pretty high up there. Make a good MP with nice maps, managed and organized playlists, good sandbox, and balanced AAs and you have a good MP.
Back to Spartan Ops, I don’t ever recall odst firefight having lag, so Spartan ops should at least be similar …
Definitely, in terms of the Campaign, I believe it will eclipse the previous games.
MP will be a substantial improvement over Reach, but whether it’ll best the original trilogy remains to be seen. I think it will be largely successful, anyway.
Unfortunately, I highly doubt it, based on what I’ve seen so far. I just have a large number of reservations about many areas of gameplay. The campaign looks like it could be very solid, but the multiplayer is really looking particularly disappointing in many areas right now.
Purely in terms of aesthetics and AMBIENCE (a highly underrated element of the map design/feel in Halo CE and Halo 3), it does look impressive, but the actual gameplay mechanics look like they could contribute to a major let down overall. That said, I hope I’m proven wrong.
It’ll be a good game either way, but if 343i really aces the campaign and makes the new additions/mechanics worth the effort and makes them a good addition to the series, it definetly could be the best Halo.

Worse maps? How so?
Each map is new (with the possibility of (1?) remake) and purpose built. Unlike Reach’s attempt at making armor ability maps. Default Sprint should help.

No no, I choose both. There is a such thing as more balanced AAs. I can tell you are coming from the “AAs will never be balanced,” but I simply don’t care if it will never be perfection. That said , I’m not going to dive in specifically about what I prefer.
