He wrote up a quick few paragraphs at Neogaf. About what it was like playing Halo 4. Check it out.

Interesting that Forerunner vision is now Promethean vision.

> in H4, you get two more slots - I forget what they were called, but they hold things like increased regen

Those are the kind of (not)perks you don’t want in a Halo game. Increased ammo, grenades, and AA energy are ok, but not passive abilities like this.

On a more positive note: I like that Forerunner Vision has been renamed Promethean Vision.

Yep, much cooler name.

This and all the news from the event can be found here:

Updated as and when new stuff hits the net.

Increased Regen/Ammo? Sounds a little worrying, not entirely sure what he meant though.

guess it’s safe to say we’ll be seeing Prometheans in Halo 4 then :slight_smile:

I’m so stoked for H4 :frowning: quit taunting me with information!

OT: I’m reassured as to Wu’s comments pertaining to the DMR and BR. They sound like they are functioning as they should. The plasma pistol and the fact that the plasma pistol is in a loadout scares me a bit, but that is ok. I wonder if it still has EMP capabilities. That’s all I really used it for in H3 and Reach.

Thanks for the share- I never find myself on NeoGaf so I need people like you sharing these things :slight_smile:

You sure like to advertise your site a lot… I wonder if that’s against forum rules or anything. You may want to look into that just to make sure you’re within the rules- I’m not too sure on how they are on these forums.

Not necessarily. It just means they might have found some more forerunner tech, ‘The flood’ novel has their armour as being several generations above ours after all and they were a vastly superior (technologically) race, so naturally they had more toys.

So they can’t be confirmed yet really.

Lol it’s not like I’m advertising lawnmowers, it’s Halo news. And my site gets posted here a hell of a lot more by other users than it does by me, by a factor of about 10:1.

Thanks, I try to gather all the Halo news in one place and make it easy to digest, I guess Frankie changing his forum name counts as Halo news too - haha

Thanks for sharing everyday math.

Ah, ignore them. Only stop when a Moderator informs you. (unless it really is against the rules and you know it, then stop)

Link please?

Yeah I saw that. Already updated the OP.

Again, thank you everyday math. Interesting reading ahead!

> Ordinance drops are pretty cool. When you earn one (I don’t know what I did to earn them), you get a little thingy in your UI that pops up - three choices, mapped to three buttons on your D-Pad. Pick your drop, and it’ll appear in the default location for that power weapon soon after.

Welp… Halo now has kill/point-streaks.

Nice find, OP. This is interesting. Not sure what I think about it yet.

Read the comments this AM. Halo 4 is sounding really good.
