So if Halo 4 is in two discs

Games Other Halo
1

And one of the discs is solely campaign AND there are only 8 missions.

Just how large are these missions going to be? The campaign must be amazing :smiley:

I don’t think it’s because the campaign is too big but because the MP is too big. You need 8 gb for MP alone if you want to install it

3

yep i think they said in one of their posts that the missions will be pretty large. i think it is the one with the achievements. also the multiplayer and spartan ops must take up a lot of room.

4

I think the main campaign is the longest in the series and Frankie said the complete SOps is as long as ODST.

Except Multiplayer is not on the same disc as campaign.

That’s what I’m saying. The reason it’s on two disks probably isn’t the campaign but the MP

man this just means that there must be a LOT of content. man i cant wait!

Frankie confirmed in an interview that Campaign and Multiplayer would be on 2 different discs. I’m going to assume that Spartan Ops is on the Multiplayer disc as well.

I can’t find the link but it was posted here earlier and it’s very recent.

There is no need having a bunch of threads on the same subject.

I have a 2010 4GB Xbox Slim with a 320GB Hard Drive.
But imagine how it must suck, for people who only have the money to afford a 4GB Xbox and no hard drive, and after they purchase Halo 4 they discover that Multiplayer takes up 8GB!

2 discs means a bunch of content…i also am getting limited edition. so much content im going to die!!

Source?

I’ve noticed that campaign has more quality in the aesthetics and environments than the MP maps. Graphics like that do take a lot of memory.

Campaign might just be a normal campaign with super long missions, which has been done before in previous Halo games, so I think that the multiplayer portion of the game is going to house an immense amount of content.

17

I’m guessing it has to do with the graphics as well.

18

I think the 8GB needed is space to download 50 different spartan ops levels. All those maps (assuming they aren’t recycled) will take up a ton of hard drive space.

now if only discs could be adapted to hold more memory oh well who knows what form of data storage will be the norm years from now.

I can not wait one month and a few days to go.

It’s probably going to be huge but do remember all the fancy graphics, spartan ops, and extra content in all modes is going to be taking up space. I am not surprised at all that Halo 4 ended up being a two disk game.

Hell i am surprised Halo 4 doesn’t melt down 360s and makes them go instant ROD. Dat skybox/graphics/lightning/character models etc.
