all i see is complaints i have been a fan of the games since the begining. everyone is complaining about this game for one reason or another and it saddens me to see this. the campaign was epic. the multiplayer is great and the changes that were made were much needed. now i have my own complaints a better leveling system would be nice and better mp map designs would be nice but its not a deal breaker for me. for me it comes down to does the good out way the bad? in my opinion yes it does but hey this is just my opinion. 343 has done an awesome job with a franchise i love and i cant wait for 5 and 6.
agreed
File share is crippled, theater is crippled, custom games is crippled, and so on.
For those who think Halo 4 is the BEST HALO OF ALL TIME:
Do you know what a random is in Halo CE?
Your response to this question will tell me if you have played a sufficient amount of Halo 1.

What goobot said.
Halo 4… is a good game. But it is not worthy to be called Halo.
Sir, I am sorry but you are incorrect.
I’ll give a -Yoink- about this thread when the full game is released.
OP has jokes.
This game had good campaign graphics, that’s it. This game is sub par on every other level. I use to play ce on xbconnect before xblive ever existed. I’m a halo fan and this game is GARBAGE. It’s a slap in the face of every true halo fan by a developer who could care less about their customers.
The campaign was good. Not epic. The campaign in Reach was more epic than this game. The problem was a lack of scope. This entire new struggle against an ancient empire felt very secluded from the rest of the galaxy that the previous games showed us.
Master Chief was back, and emotionally deeper, which I enjoyed. Cortana’s degradation was a decent story line, but it felt lacking in something…still not sure what.
The fact most of the deep stuff you wanted to know about the Didact and Librarian comes from outside of game sources is fairly disappointing as well.
> all i see is complaints i have been a fan of the games since the begining. everyone is complaining about this game for one reason or another and it saddens me to see this.
Don’t worry, I’ll send out a memo to everybody who has legitimate grips with the game so we make sure you aren’t sad anymore. Seriously people who say anything like “The complaints make me sad”, people are going to have differing opinions. It is not the end of the world if people complain.
> the campaign was epic.
I don’t believe that.
> the multiplayer is great and the changes that were made were much needed.
And those necessary changes are?
like i stated earlier these are my opinions. as for the changes the loadouts are a great addition also the ordinance drops the fact that the game feels faster paced. there are still some problems with the game but nothing that makes me hate it. so your opinions are yours and mine are mine. to me this game is awesome
> as for the changes the loadouts are a great addition
Why? They are extremely far removed from every Halo game in the past. Sure Reach had a precursor to the Loadouts we know now, but at its core it was still a proper Halo game with weapon spawns on the map and the like.
> also the ordinance drops the fact that the game feels faster paced.
And they are also extremely random to a fault.
> there are still some problems with the game but nothing that makes me hate it. so your opinions are yours and mine are mine. <mark>to me this game is awesome</mark>
And I don’t see it that way whatsoever.
It is most certainly not the best Halo.
I could come up with more reasons to prove that it is the worst Halo, than the best.
Combat evolved had the best campaign. The story was simple: humanity getting wiped out by a collection of alien races. You are the last hope. Hell Ya! Small weapon sandbox, encounters that didn’t require the same weapons brought to the same locations in order to advance. Replayability, I played the game 12 times at least on normal before I played it once on heroic, then only on legenadary after that. I developed strategies for getting through the game quite quickly. Reach was hard because enemies could just one shot melee you, although halo 2 and 3 also had this as well. At least in halo 4 elites can’t kill you from one punch, grunts are back to taking more punishment, but sadly the hunters are still lame bullet sponges. In spartan ops when you have 4 hunters to deal with the best thing to do once 2 of them are gone is to melee them to death. It gets pretty easy to see how they attack at close range.
Multiplayer was epic there too, all maps were designed for capture the flag, there were great ffa maps, small maps for 1v1 up to 8v8.
What about the covenant? Their voices from halo 1-3 were hilarious, Reach and 4 use the lame alien tongues.
Most blockbuster games these days have a BETA to work out the bugs before release. Gears of war 3 had one, Reach had one, Halo 4 did not and because of that we are suffering because of 343i’s short-sightedness.
From now on I believe we should just call this “game” 4. No need to smack the coveted and legendary title of “Halo” in front. It sure as hell does not deserve that prestige by any means.
I for one am happy with the game. There will be title updates to improve so I don’t see why people are so against this game. News flash guys, this is a new dev, expect changes. I love this game and play it all of the time. I have played ever other halo other than the anniversary CE and wars.

I agree, ‘game 4’ is much more appropriate.

The title update won’t fix all the problems with this game. Halo went from being a skill based arena shooter to a Call of Duty clone.
