Everyone goes on about z0mg d0n’t be like Reach because lets face it, it didnt quite feel halo’ish… but alot of the new changes were (speculated to be) preparation/practice for Bungie’s rumoured new game ‘Destiny’ … 343i doesn’t need to warm up for anything besides Halo, and the team is made up of Halo fans, so I am pretty confident this game will be brilliant and a welcome addition to the series.
All the changes mentioned in Game Informer and such, whilst at first made me think z0mg WTF T_T , actually all sound really good and fun. Sure some of the names are a bit o.O but that can be changed. Armour abilities as long as they are balanced should hopefully work, spartan ops sounds like an awesome new feature, rotating weapon spawns will make all areas of a map utilised and explored and everything else will surely only add to the experience of ‘Halo’
So imo everyone should quit hating before we even have the game, or even a gameplay footage longer than a minute. Lets just wait patiently for the info slowly drips through till the game comes out and we can all rush like schoolgirls to buy it and have fun 
On a side note for t3h lulz, come up with the most ridiculous new skull description you can think of?
My input would have to be: Change your bullets into bubbles and grenades into Piñata
