Halo 4 Game Informer Impressions NEW VIDEO

Its up

18mins!

Yum Yum.

Details later.

EDIT 1: First 9 mins just a recap.

EDIT: Just finished the whole video. Don’t bother. See ya at E3 info.

Just Watching… thanks!

Edit Finished!
Forge is confirmed, but without ANY detail.
Some guessing plays of them trying to tie Infinity going inside Requim and the Mech at Warhouse appearing in campaing, but nothing concrete, and very dubious.

16 mins in…nothing new been said.

*yawn.

Only thing is Infinity will get to Reqium…but that was obvious

Forge is in. Confirmed.

I feel like GI does a terrible job at reporting Halo 4.

> I feel like GI does a terrible job at reporting Halo 4.

Amen. They put everything into their magazine (fair enough) but there follow up videos have been awful.

And the magazine was badly worded and poorly written, but probably sold more copies than other editions - so I assume they don’t care.

So Forge is in, but no details. That is the only new thing.

The whole video is basically a recap of the past week.

They would give you exclusive information if they could, so they must have been under NDA :slight_smile: Can’t blame them entirely for the lack of info.

GI doesnt sell individual copies to the public. You have to subscribe to get them monthly.

Bet they got more subscribers then ;-).

Sorry, I haven’t really got a clue how Yank Mag’s work, or all mags to be honest.

:slight_smile:

Well I can safely say I should have taken your word for it and not bothered watching that…

I mean fair enough, this is their “Hands on Impression” Video, so you can expect them to say some things they’ve already said before, but the entire thing is just a plain reiteration of already picked-apart information…Damn shame…

Oh well, guess I’ll just have to endure a Wonderful Trial of waiting until E3 with damn near no more information…

Pretty much a complete waste of time. These GI guys don’t even really know what they’re saying half the time. It would have been a bit better if people that really know Halo were the ones having the hands-on play time.

What? I found out something. 343 is gonna spend half of these ‘Episodes’ production on CG. The ones from the missions, and from the video. That’s six or more of them. A week. I bet the next three episodes are in production. But only the CG. They’ll be holding in the rest.

And guess what? I’m -Yoink!- happy about it.

What I got out of it was assassinations, forge, Reach’s credit system, and maybe theater mode is back.

I have a couple questions though. Did Frankie lie to us? Frankie said that we wouldn’t be able to see anyone on the map using Forerunner Vision, but in the video the bearded guy clearly said that when he used it he could see people running around on the map. Maybe he meant his teammates? IDK.

My other question is the unlocking system for loadouts. They said that the more XP you earn, the more loadout options you will have. So are they going to separate those people who are able to have more loadouts(ie: better weapons or abilites) from people who say just started the game and just have the basic options?
