YES WE CAN.
1st part of core gameplay: EVERYONE STARTS OFF THE SAME.
Thats obviously gone.
AND ITS THE BIGGEST PART.

And your the authority on who is more of a fan than who?
I think of Halo as a universe. I’m open to gameplay change, just as long as the story doesn’t turn into some cheesy 80’s action film, where Master Chief can flip over a Warthog and then give some awful one-liner about not spilling his Coke. As long as the story is intact, bring on the change.

because you know ill win, amirite?
I didnt say anyone is a bigger fan than anyone else. I simply said you cant be a true fan of something just because of its name.

We know the multiplayer is basically CoD in space.
I have enjoyed every halo game (for different reasons), and thus I will be buying and enjoying Halo 4. I am fairly confident that I will get many hours of fun out of it, regardless of what new changes they decide to implement. In my opinion, that makes me a fan of the halo series.

WHAT? I can be a fan of anything I want for any reason.

But they already told us it is and it will still play just like other Halo games.

you can THINK that.
MakeLoveNotWar:
you cant believe things just because someone told you it. You have to think independently.

You’re the one assuming I’m a fan of Halo just because of the title and that it has Master Chief in it. You’re the one who’s stupid enough to make up something about someone else based on nothing.
I’m a fan of Halo because that is what I chose to be. There is no clear definition of what makes Halo “Halo”. What makes Halo “Halo” is as complex as any other fictional universe filled with 100,000+ years of history, characters, and technology.

So why would you be a fan of something, if not for its unique properties, or at least it’s properties that you like?
I may not be a “True” Halo fan by this forums standards since I started with Halo 3, but I loved Halo 3 and have bought every game since. I was only 9 when CE came out and I lived in a strict household, I wasnt even allowed to play T games back then
Why am I not a true fan just because I was late to the party? Just because I’ve only loved it for 5 years means I don’t love it enough to matter?
I don’t like every single last thing I’m hearing about this game. However, thats true about every god -Yoink!- game that’s ever come out. Overall I think the game sounds amazing. I will buy it and enjoy it. If you can’t/won’t buy it that’s your problem. People need to quit thinking that just because they played CE means they should be the sole party tailored to.
Deal with it or go through with your threats and don’t buy it.

But in order to be a fan, you liked its original concept, right? either its story, or its gameplay. But people who will play it because they blindly worship the developers and will buy it because it says “halo” in the title are not fans, they are bandwagoners.
