What are some Pros and Cons?

I would like to hear from anyone willing to comment. What do you think the pros and cons of Halo 4 will be? I want to hear what the Halo community is thinking of Halo 4.

Pros:

Master Chief is back.
Environments have more colour.
Spartan Ops and the replay value it will deliver.

Cons:

Sprint.
Armor abilities.
Perks/mods.
Nerfed weapons.

You know CH4MP10N 573V3N I agree with you so far the fact Master Chief is back is a big time pro because Master chief is totally boss. I agree with you cons too. I actually didn’t mind sprint and jetpack in Reach but from gameplay footage there will be op armor abilities. Im sure there will be playlist with no armor abilities though. A con for me is also having the DMR and the concussion rifle. Why are they using technology that is outdated in Halo 4?. that make no sense for me.

Pros-
It’s Halo.

Cons-
It’s not Half Life 3.

There, Happy?

The DMR in Halo 4 is a new and improved model. Reach’s model was 392 if i remember correct, Halo 4’s is 395. Better accuracy and less bloom by the looks.

Pros:

. Halo is unique
. Halo takes skill

Cons

. Too bad i have to wait until 6th november to play it :frowning:

I fail to see how it’s a bad thing Halo isn’t HL3…

It’s the only Con I could think of, alright?!

I can’t really judge the cons for sure until I experience the game for a while. CH4MP10N’s con-list, for example, could very well all turn out to be pros.

Pros are easy, though. Chief, new weapons, new story, Spartan Ops, 3 Forge Worlds, new enemies, Didact, Dominion, etc. and such.

It’s a joke, it points out Valve’s refusal to say anything about Half-Life 3 (or Episode 3), and is especially prominent because Half-Life 2 Episode 2 ended on a massive cliffhanger, think of it like Halo 2, just longer (and more painful).

pros: EVERYTHING cons: NOTHING

PROS:
Forge
Infection
Fun custom games
Grifball

Thats a shame, I thought most of us moved away from that kind of thinking.

Guess i failed the joke.

But yes it’s a pain waiting for Valve to finish the story. Sure, they can develope portal 2 and CS:GO. What? Oh well i hope my grandkids will enjoy EP3.

Pros:
It’s Halo

Cons:
I have to get used to new control settings.

Pros:
It doesn’t look like most of the weapons are nerfed to hell
The game looks visually awesome
The plot has potential

Cons:
No Arbiter
Default Infection looks like it’s going to suck
Massive amounts of storage space required for Spartan Ops

Different makes and models dude, think about the M-16 and AK-47 we have today and how long they’ve been around and the changes made to them.

I used to be very negative about the game and all the changes 343 were making, but at this point I don’t have much to complain about anymore. I think the concept of armor mods could have been handled a little more creatively (it is very similar to the typical perk-system) but they had good intentions with it, and it could be amazing for all I know. Death cams also seem like a trivial addition to me personally, as well as the sparse QTE’s in the campaign.

These are minor gripes however, and on the whole I’m now fairly confident Halo 4 will be a pretty solid game. I’ll keep my expectations grounded until I play it for myself, but it really does look fantastic.

Pros:
Everything

Cons:
That the game isnt out now

At least thats the way i see it

Pros:

  • A new chapter in the Halo universe (Different tone in atmosphere and music)
  • New weapons, new enemies (Prometheans), return of old enemies (Covenant)
  • Episodic co-op missions called “Spartan Ops”
  • From the videos, has the same look and fell as previous Halo titles
  • Forge mode returns

Cons:

  • Armor abilities (as stated before)
  • Sprint (Never needed it in a Halo title, Reach included)
  • CoD influences (Heard the franchise multiplayer portion game the development crew ideas…)
