for those who can’t see what’s so good about Halo 4 so far or those who just want to know all the goodies. let’s see what’s so good about Halo 4 so far:

  1. The Battle Rifle is back!
  2. The graphics are amazing looking!
  3. HUD outline
  4. Fast paced!
  5. No health bars, which means no camping around the health stations and camp because your health is red. No health bars = Shield waits only = Faster paced
  6. No AA’s… so far
  7. Sprint as Auto, meaning you automatically can run fast, which means faster encounters which = faster paced
  8. Competitive/MLG focus, due to what 343i said and the maps are designed for multiplayer, not extracted from campaign, which means multiplayer designed maps = competitive interest = faster paced
  9. Multiplayer has Storyline, a first and awesome! but not centered around this story, it’s for the fans that want to learn more about the Halo Storyline
  10. Warhouse has a Mech in the map. what does this mean? Somebody’s gonna drive that Mech in the Campaign… ;D
  11. Motion Sensor now shows where Power Weapons are, if spawned, which means player’s need to get to them to gain a lead = faster paced
  12. The music sounds very promising from a guy that aint Marty.
  13. Spartan’s footsteps are louder, which can give a player a chance to turn around before being assassinated (better for player’s that have Astros, Turtle Beaches, etc…)
  14. Weapon Lowering is back, which means more amazing Machinimas and RvB!
  15. Covenant are back and still trying to kill you. Campaign will have its classic enemies, but aint the bigger threat
  16. Better First-Person cinematics in Campaign, meaning a better experience and more involves the players
  17. The DMR-like weapon is promised to be back
  18. Spartan IV’s look cool, just look at that helmet!
  19. Spartan player models are not as bulky and ugly as Reach’s
  20. The Spartan player models move smoothly and look BA while just walking
  21. Audio sounds amazing!
  22. 343i team are all experienced people from all kinds of companies all working on this one, amazing game series, 343i has proven themselves that Halo is in good hands

22 positive things and I can’t think of 1 negative thing. I can’t wait for Halo 4! Holiday can’t come any faster can it? it’s definitly been worth the long anticipated wait for the reveals though. Most Anticipated Game of 2012 just went to a whole new voting level!

*All these positives are either from the new vidoc, assumptions on the vidoc, new Q&A’s on sites, or something else I forgot…

The SPARTAN IV helmet disgusts me and the audio doesn’t sound ‘Halo’ to me. I see no way possible that the new soundtrack would ever be as iconic as sounds from previous games. And how can you see through such a small crack in the helmet acknowledged as its visor? It seems too unrealistic. For a big HUD screen to fit in such a narrow design… The graphics are out of this world. I don’t want it to feel too fast-paced or it’ll feel like I’m playing Lost Planet.

I used to have a hard time accepting the changes to Master Chief’s armor. Now, I realize how badass it looks. But the SPARTAN IV helmet… not on my ‘to-wear’ list, if they have a bigger arsenal of armor (and I beg of anyone higher-up in the 343i staff to bring Recon back!! And not the Halo: Reach excuse of a helmet, I’m talking about Halo 3 REAL Recon). And the soundtrack I heard… that does NOT sound like Halo. Unless they can step their game up, PLEASE bring Martin 'O Donnell back!!

i like the master chief current look WAY better than the models (toys) look. although i still dont like the visor, those lines at the top seem impracticable and seem like they would block vision.

Agree with op:) I’m really looking forward to this. The only thing that saddens me a tiny bit is Reach is just now getting really fun with the tu. That said, it never hurts to have more than 1 good game:)

Good list.
