I’d just like to say thank you 343i for making an amazing game, and restoring my faith into the series.
I have been playing Halo since 2001, and have largely argued how terrible the recent Halo’s have been for years with Halo 3, ODST, and Halo: Reach being a mega disappointment.
I have played competitive Halo, casual Halo, and basically everything in between. I have forged, filmed, made videos, clans, teams, etc.
And I just have to say, this is an amazing game. To the people who don’t like it, how can you say this game isn’t better than REACH? This game is everything Reach should have been.
So thank you 343i, and this is coming from a person who has complained on the Halo 3 and Reach forums for years.
> Halo 4 is definitely better than Reach and CE but I still prefer Halo 2. Whether it’s superior to Halo 3 is questionable, but I’d have to say no.
Haha, for the longest time Halo 2 was my favorite Halo. And whiles it is tough to say so early right now which is best, I think Halo 4 is an enormous improvement from Halo 3 and Halo Reach.
I don’t understand what people are complaining about this is the best halo of all time and i have 100 percent faith in 343 for halo 5. P.s. best campaign evar!!!
The game is great in Campaign, Spartan Ops and most aspects.
But Multiplayer it isn’t even close, to any of the original trilogy especially not CE. Aim assists, instant respawns and not getting scoped out when you’re shot are the main reasons. Sprint elongating and ruining small competitive maps is another, sprint should be in Campaign and Spartan Ops, not the MP. Aim assists need to get nerfed a lot and instant respawning was a nonsensical unnecessary idea.
Address those issues then it can compare to the original trilogies MP, right now the feel is terrible.
The multiplayer is more like CoD than Halo however. No/Random Weapons Spawn on Map? Constant Sprint Ability? Yuck… I get bored after playing 2-3 games…
The best Halo story was ODST then Halo 4 took it’s crown for me
I don’t really need to measure nor my member nor my “1337 skillz” with other players to enjoy anything so the new, frantic and supposed noob friendly direction for the MP is a welcome change for me. However, it still lacks something…SANDTRAP, oh god I miss that map

I’m not sure what game types you are playing, maybe infinity slayer? Everything else that I’ve played has set weapons spawns.

Dear God I wish that map would make a come-back…
Personally I think the maps in multiplayer are a tad too small… but then the Halo’s I’ve played previously (reach and Halo 3) had maps which were kind of a cross between Battlefield and Cod (medium-large sized basically) so that’s what I was used to.
Still, we can hope that bigger maps will come out in the map packs - personally I’ve got my hopes for Sandtrap coming back, Haemorrhage possibly, and that map from Halo 3 with the 2 bases with the giant radar dishes… standoff, was it?
343i turned the competitive multiplayer into sci-fi CoD and then they butchered custom games. The campaign was good, but by no stretch of the imagination is this the best Halo.
