I played Halo CE, 2 ,3 , ODST, and Reach. I loved them all except for Reach.
When I saw the awful laughable names like forerunner vision and spartan points/ops, they seemed like something a soccer mom Working at 343 would just make up, with a sense of having NO experience in Video games. I thought they were all a joke, so I laughed them off and ignored them. I mean, 343 and frankie have been talking about a CLASSIC experience and going back to what made halo, HALO! What they tried in Reach, failed hard… so why not give us back what we like?
They is SERIOUS? This is probably the worst marking direction ive seen for ANY company in my entire life, and I’m 22. All these features seem, Fake, theyre so laughable! I mean REALLY? Thats not halo at all! Somebody please call a late april fools…
IF YOU LOOK AT THE SONIC FRANCHISE. Every year Sonic fans HOPE for that CLASSIC sonic game. They are sadly let down year after year since the 90s. I’m one of those fans. IS HALO just like that now??? Are we going to be let down year after year, hoping for taht classic halo 2 experience and NEVER get it? We’re just gonna be lied to?
Halo 1,2, and 3 made us all sit around the TV with pizza for hours with friends. Reach was just… RIGHT in the childhood…
I loved and played the poop out of every Halo game and I can’t wait for Halo 4.
Some of the names do sound a bit strange (especially Forerunner vison) but I’m pretty sure most of the names we’ve heard are placeholders. I know for a fact that the two maps we’ve been shown, “Wraparound” and “Warhouse” are both placeholder names, so maybe a lot of other things are too.
The gameplay sounds like it will be geared to the casual player who will purchase the game then shelve it after a few weeks and will move onto the next game. Halo 4 doesn’t sound like it is tailored for the player who was with Combat Evolved, 2, and 3 for their duration.
First You take away map control by adding jet pack. Then you Take away Powerups so theres no point in holding places on the map. Now theres no reason to hold weapons on the map!
WHY NOT JUST TAKE AWAY THE MAPS and let us float around in a blank void… Nothing to hold, No skill… etc… NO FREAKIN casual.
I was hoping it was a late april fools joke, guess not after playing halo2 online since the dayit came out and all the way to reach now its sad to see thie franchise sellout and create a call of duty like game to try to steal away COD players to switch to halo and support all the badkids who couldnt get 50’s or single digit onyx’s. r.i.p MLG and classic halo
> RANDOM WEAPON SPAWNS?! REALLY?

Frankie has said that random weapons spawns aren’t what Gameinformer described them as.
How does the Jet pack take away map control? Surely it takes more skill if you can take down people coming from above you as well as from other directions?
You don’t even know how high it lets you jump. It could be like a double jump for all we know. Nowhere in the article did it say that it was like the Reach jetpack.
I think alot ofthis will be for the social playlist! As for the stay vision thingy that’s plausible as it was in shadow run which was made by some people who helped with halo reach. That’s where bloom came from aswel. Fingers crossed the halo.formular we love will remain in the ranked playlist! I trust 343 Until I see or play something which is completily un halo like

I and 7 other of my friends will not be buying this game.
You people don’t even know if there will be a mode for competetive player. I have been with all of the Halo games since they’ve been around, and I am genuinly excited for what this game brings. I didn’t shelve Reach after two weeks of playing, because it was FUN. I don’t care if it’s “classic” Halo, because “classic” Halo is coming up on being a decade-old gameplay. I hope you don’t buy this game, so that you can’t keep making things up to be upset about.
I’m not going to lie, I’ve been campaigning for Halo 4 to not be a straight port of 2 and 3 but a couple of things have me upset or at least worried. While Spartan-Ops sounds like it could be cool regardless of the chessy name, the lack of firefight is kind of lame even though I care more about standard MM more, FF was a good time, it wasn’t as good in Reach so I was hoping they would improve it. Second as for abilities, I’m glad sprint is standard but I was hoping jetpack would die, its the only AA on Reach that I felt truly broke map control and flow. And Forerunner Vision, Halo’s version of Batman’s Detective Mode, I feel like its going to be abused and I don’t see the point of it with radar, but I like all of you haven’t played Halo 4 yet so this all could very well work out.
