Good things, bad things, and not so sure of things

Games Other Halo

So I see people complaining, praising, and unsure. What are you excited about? What do you think will ruin the game? What are you unsure of? Here is my list

Good

-BR is back!
-Master Chief is back!
-Ops mode. This will be awesome if it adds to the story.
-red vs blue explained.
-joining in progress games - did they announce this? i hope, i cant stand when someone quits.

Bad

-earning gear that changes game play. This could be really bad. This is not what halo is about.
-random weapon spawns. i seriously hope this isnt for ranked. however, talking with 2 friends they were kinda excited for this as they do not play much and always hate how they can never get power weapons because people like me rush them.

Unsure

-Xray vision - who knows what this will be like. I guess it can go either way since we have not seen it.
-AAs - While most of you seem to hate them, I like them in team slayer and hate them in ranked. I think Reach does an ok job of keeping them in different playlists. sometimes its fun to go invisible in a social slayer game. ranked needs to keep them off
-loadouts - well this can be kinda cool if done right. we dont know what it will look like but i imagine it will be similar to invasion in reach.

I think I’m on the same page.

I like the fact that the Spartan OPS/Infinity will have this continual storymode to it, the fact that there will be continual tales to tell outside of the campaign is something I enjoy to hear, regardless if my gameplay sucks.

Personally, I was really glad to hear that Sprint would be a default aspect, sprinting seems a natural ability, not being able to do it (and this includes a lot of other games) seemed odd.

They only thing that made me do the double-take was the x-ray vision, if its a thermal thing (which seems today’s real world approach to this kind of thing) I can see it. But it made me immediately think of Batman’s Detective Mode in the Arkham games.

Through the literature and games, there is this growing hint that MC is THE RECLAIMER, so getting more into his back/personal story seems a natural progression of the storyline. Looking forward to that and the Forerunner’s more than anything.
