Me, preferabbly always enjoyed fighting Spartans against elites, hence why I liked Halo Reach in the first place…that and forge that is…
But anyhow, how many of you are excited you’ll only be versing Spartans on Spartans and how many are toqued, peod that you can’t have Spartan vs Elites in MP anymore…It was confirmed in a Rooster Teeth video on youtube, I can’t find it, but it was stated in their description that it will not be coming back.
I’m also torqued that firefight is not coming back…
so,
1: Mad or happy its just Spartans vs Spartans in MP
2:Mad or happy there is no Firefight…
2: Maybe add firefight back instead of swapping, so you have all 4 games…
Me:
1: Not very happy
2: Not very happy
P.S Yes, I like playing on the enemies side all the time, because I always do better if I’m on that side…
1.) I’ll miss playing as an Elite, and feel sorry for people who preferred playing as Elites, but I’m really happy that we’ll only be fighting other spartans.
2.) Spartan ops is open to SO many possibilities. Think about what 343i could add; They could add a missions in the dark fighting the Flood, they could add a missions in space, a mission on a UNSC frigate, in the desert defending a Mammoth, and so much more. This gametype could be one of the best gamemodes in FPS history, it has so much potential.
Spartan Ops sounds alot like Spec Ops off of Cod and if so, I"d really then hate it in the form of Halo, I’m sorry, but I preferred fighting waves and waves of whatever covenant you had set up in the menu, especially because it was fun…
But this is your opinion and so I’m not going to hold it to you, I asked for opinions and I got one, I just want to here the communities side to this anyhow…

Oh for the love of…
Just because it sounds like spec ops, which isnt a word CoD made up, doesnt mean it plays like it. In halo, each SO missions leads to point that actually effects the story. In CoD’s SO mode you simply replay a part in the campaign from a different perspective.
Yeah Elite slayer on Hemmorhage was just the best.
Spartan ops > FireFight
Story always beats mindless Firefights.

Yeah, when you were the Spartans.

Oh for crying out loud…
It’s somethinng ENTIRELY DIFFERENT!

What isnt elite slayer only elites?
Can’t wait for Spartan Ops tbh…IMO firefight died when they didnt re-implement any vidmasters achievements. Still remember how epic it was getting endure with guys of the forums and a Halo buddy of mine.
Spartan Ops sounds like a really good progression…it does’nt sound like we’re goinjg to be disappointed…I’m really looking forward to Halo nights again with mates that haven’t been playing reach due to it’s un-Halo’ness.
That being said…I don’t mind reach. I still havent found a game that makes me smile like Halo does…I still relish the WTF moments as I round a corner and find a guy with a grav hammer that proceed’s to dispatch my spartan to the sweet sound of KA-BOOM lol.
All in all, I’m really looking forward to Halo 4…and the live action series that will build upto it.
Peace

They were probably referring to Invasion Slayer (a gametype I despise). And I personally hated elite slayer, so all I can give is my biased opinion.
Also, Spartan Ops can be go anywhere from blah to amazing. So I’m holding my judgement on that.

Alright, alright you made your point on Spartan Ops, but again, I’m not going to really like it, I didn’t like knowing more of the story unless it deals with Master Chief or allows me to play as the enemy…and guaranteed Spartan Ops won’t invoke that, so I’m still all no on it, sorry, I still prefer firefight over fighting missions anyday…
Umm, whoever commented on Elite Slayer, that won’t be there anymore I’m afraid…besides, maybe I want to verse Spartan and Elite enemies at the same time like in Reach…
Besides the point,
I guess Spartan Ops [which to me still seems like cod except in the form of halo] is still wanted…

Spartan Ops is similar to Spec Ops from CoD only in the sense that it’s a co-op mission. Spartan Ops is different in the sense that there will be a new set of episodes containing five missions every week for ten weeks that will end up being on the same scope and scale as the single player campaign.
It is also different in the sense that Spartan Ops has an story to it that’s progressed every week with new Spartan Ops content. In essence, it is a second campaign that comes with the game, absolutely free! Spec Ops, on the other hand, had absolutely no overarching story.
And what’s wrong with knowing more of the story, even if you don’t play as Master Chief or the enemy? Don’t you find it fascinating to play as your own Spartan through another campaign?
In the end, everybody is entitled to their own opinion, and I respect yours, even understand it. I am saddened by the fact that Firefight will not be returning, but that sadness is completely overshadowed by the excitement I have for Spartan Ops!
Hotrod192: Thank you, now I know more about it, but paying 60 dollars for just campaign and multiplayer and forge is still too much imo, sure you get all these benefits, and etc.
But what I really want to know, will within these, will Spartan Ops be more story based, every 10 minutes you’ll be in a story and every 5 minutes you’ll be fighting, or will it by similiar to campaign?
2nd: Will it be similiar, you load up and just shoot, or will you be able to drive around on vehicles and stuff to get to the checkpoints, fight and etc.
3rd: Nothing is wrong with knowing more of the story, I’d just prefer to wonder it on my own. I can’t really tell whats really out of the planet, so why want to know more about a story that has it almost finished, especially when you are paying way to much for a game in the first place.
4th: Can you set up all the loadouts and stuff in your favor or will it be just one horrible set and have to pick up guns, like cod.
I like to have features where you can set up what weapons you want, instead of having to find it, especially in halo campaign as its very hard to find weapons unless you fighting a group of enemies or are in a specific location…
But I respect your answers and opinions and understand your excitement for it, as of me forge returning better excites me a whole lot, I just hope we don’t have to pay for items…
I don’t mind Elites being out. Gametypes like Elite Slayer and Invasion Slayer were fun once in a while, but the appeal wore off fairly quickly.
Seriously? no elites, thats horrible, first it was Thel now its multiplayer 
What the hell its thinking 343 industries? I mean elites were no the big deal in Reach; but they were there to satisfy the fans. But back to Halo 3 they were completely well balanced.
Respect to Spartan Ops, they are fine since Firefight was so repetitive towards the end, but again no Elite Ops and im beginning to dislike this game, my first Halo game was Halo 2 and i have a special like for Thel, Rtas and the rest of the elites, maybe i should buy Borderlands 2, they are bringing back the skags and the madmax cholos
343 confirmed ages ago that there’ll be something to scratch that itch of not being able to play as elites…
Could that mean Promethean multiplayer characters? What else could it be?
