Overall thoughts of Halo 4?

Games Other Halo
1

Many people go on and on about how Halo 4 is starting to look like COD, while some say from what they’ve seen, 343 is doing an amazing job, and that Halo 4 has the potential to be one of the best Halo games yet. I have a few question topics that you can choose from to answer. Please try to “keep it clean”. I just want to take a small survey to see what the general population thinks :slight_smile:

-Campaign:
*What do you think of the new enemies? Do you think they’re breaking tradition or bringing the story to an all new awesomeness?
*Do you think bringing back the Master Chief again is overdoing it?
*Do you think bringing lore from the Halo novels will be hard to understand for the average gamer?

-Multiplayer:
*What do you think of the UNSC weapon choices? (BR, DMR, Sticky Pistol, etc.)
*Forenrunner weapons? (Incineration cannon, Binary Rifle, Scattershot, etc.)
*Covenant weapons? (Beam rifle, Concussion rifle, etc.)
*What are your thoughts on the newer armour abilities? (Hardlight shield, Thruster Pack, Forerunner vision, etc.)
*From what you’ve seen, what do you think of all of the vehicles?
*What do you think about new game modes? (Dominion, the newer infection: Flood Mode)
*What about the new maps? (+ Valhalla remake)

-Spartan Ops:
*What do you think of bringing the story into all new co-op mini campaigns?
*Do you feel this replaced firefight? If so, good or bad?
*What do you think about them releasing weekly episodic missions?

-Forge Mode:
*Thoughts on new improvements? (Magnets, player trait zones, lighting, highlighting, locking in place)
*Do you feel these improvements will be helpful?
*What do you think about the 3 Forge maps? (Ravine, Impact, Erosion)
*Do you feel that these maps will be better or worse than the massive forge world in Halo: Reach?

All of these are just general questions about the game. I could ask a hundred more, but I would probably bore you to death. You can also give feedback on a topic of your own that is not listed. I would love to hear you guys thoughts on how the community feels about the upcoming Halo 4. Thank you for taking the time to read this and happy posting! :slight_smile:

New enemies = Perfect
Masterchief back = perfect
Lore from halo books = Perfect

UNSC Weapons= Perfect
Forerunner = Perfect
Covenant = Perfect (Carbine <3)
Armor abilities are the same as H3 And Reach. Disclaimer: H3 Items are really similar to new armor abilities (Regen field, auto sentry, HLS aka Deployable Cover)
Vehicles are heavier and tougher!
New game modes, love dominion, love infection.
New maps: Seem perfect to me, specially forge

Can’t give opinion on spartan ops, not enough footage :frowning: But the overall idea seems great to me.

Forge = Deliciously perfect, somethings i would like to be added but seems 9/10 in my book.

In my book gets a 9.9/10 (Unless i see BSangel photoshopped into cortana face, then it will get a 10/10)

A good chunk of the helmets look ridiculous, other then that, I love the whole game.

I am cautiously optimistic. The campaign looks fine, but some of the multiplayer additions feel either cheap, generic, or arbitrary. Death cams, for instance, seem largely pointless besides pandering to CoD fans, and the perk system could have been handled a little more creatively other than ripping off what so many other games have done already. The weapon spawning system is also starting to worry me.

Otherwise, so far, so good. Don’t choke, 343.

I am cautiously optimistic also. I think the game looks amazing, but I’m a little worried the multiplayer will be unbalanced.
