Hello Halo fans the point of this thread is simple
Talk about Halo 4 with me if you don’t like labeling yourself or other people labeling you as such.
The whole Casual vs. Competitive argument is more detrimental to Halo and its community way more than anything 343i could do to the game play.
So as far as I’m concerned about Halo 4 looks great campaign,spartan ops,multiplayer all look gravy to me.
I encourage you to talk about your concerns,excitement,stuff you’d like to see,in the game.
Also obvious no competitive/casual arguments in this thread.If you post in here post as a fan of Halo nothing more thank you whether your argument is considered casual or not all is welcome!

Well you certainly aren’t required to look at it let alone post in it.
I would have put Halo 4 discussion in the title If their was room I might edit it later.
Also how am I instigating by encouraging people to discuss what they like and dislike about Halo 4?
Simple answer is I’m not but you certainly are trying to instigate an argument that’s obvious.
So if you have nothing relevant to add I kindly would ask you to post somewhere else.

See: No flaming.
Anyways, I wanna see how beastly the new automatic weapons are. I felt they were lacking in Reach BIG time.
Campaign, I can’t wait to discover “The ancient Evil”
I wanna see how diverse the new maps are, environment-wise.

Yeah the automatic weapons particularly the assault rifle have always felt weak IMO.
The storm rifle looks pretty awesome from the few seconds I’ve seen of it.
To be fair it probably should be opened up to “General Discussion” and moved but since its in the Halo 4 forum I will focus on Halo 4.
The new sandbox has me second guessing things. Its good that 343 has decided to move their own way but they’ve changed so much that its not going to be the same Halo that knows me. Things like the Watcher catching grenades or the Knights being able to shift positions like they are teleporting. Its VERY different. And not having elites in MM is almost insulting. It just seems like a bad idea. They will probably be replaced with something else like a Precursor or Prometheans but so what? Everyone loves Elites even if the covenant aren’t going to play a large role in the next trilogy.
From what I’ve heard about customizable options and forge I expect big things. Everyone should be happy when its all said and done but at what cost? When there are 10 different settings and 20 different versions of a map people lose interest, they stop caring, the population is spread too thin which makes MM take longer which makes players play less.
I’m sure they’ve already thought of that though, so we’ll just have to see.
Well the reason it’s posted in the Halo 4 forums was because I wanted a thread talking specifically about everything Halo 4 without worrying about a casual/competitive argument starting again. but if this is in the wrong place then by all means they should move it.
Also if you consider yourself a casual or competition player by all means I mean no offense everyone.
I’m for the most part very pleased with what 343i has shown us.I’m liking the custom load outs.Infinity slayer looks really fun imo.I am sad Elites aren’t in matchmaking.I loved playing as an Elite.

So… Instead of participating in the actual H4 forum that is specifically about everything Halo 4, you decided to create a topic that is specifically everything Halo 4?
I’m still confused by this miniature Halo 4 forum within the Halo 4 forum.
Also, I want to say that after much deliberation, promethean vision appears to be the most idiotic idea for an AA in the history of FPS games. Sure it looks cool, sounds cool, but seriously who the heck supported the doofus who suggested this garbage.

Dude,no flaming lol…Anyhow, 343 has a good reason to rip off Blacklight:Tango Down (see through walls)meachnaic and nickname it Promethan Vision.What good reason?We’ll find out when they choose to unveil the reason.IF,they choose.
Anyhow as for the OP,All the news for Halo4 have been good for me;this is 343’s game and not Bungie’s…It would have been a waste of almost 3 years(the is games’s development time)to replicate what somebody else did…
The only thing I hope for this is some good map remakes and Theater mode to be beefed up to compete with the competition’s.

I hope they let friends watch theater mode with me again.No idea why they changed it for Reach lol.
As for Promethean it’s perfectly understandable why some people think it should be removed or tweaked but personally I would rather have just my radar.Sure I don’t see exactly what they are doing but as long as I know they are there that’s good enough for me.

Yep,if you have moer disk space,you have more space to put in that extra something,or make the graphics look better.
Just look at SOny’s Bluray 25 GB compared to Microft dvd 7.9 GB…one of the reasons companies can put trilogy collections on Sony’s disc.(with the exception of MGS collection)
Anotehr example,is the installation of HD graphics for BF3 only for XBox…PS# and PC,you don’t have to install ext.graphics to make it look better…it’s already on the disc…
With Microsoft’s dvd disc,DICE just made the install fille smaller to fit on the disc,but while you can’t use it,you can install it unto your xbox to use it.
Not trying to correct you or something like taht here,but just providing extra examples

She is going to become a real -Yoink-. I’ll feel sorry for the MC

I’m still very convinced he is going to extend her life by using some sort of forerunner technology.
