The intro is pretty nice, i like the effect and the font, but i dont like those few sparks in the intro, they don't really fit in in my opinion. All other effects in the intro are good though. The THF intro is pretty sweet, but i don't know how things work at THF, it's probably a pre-made intro by someone there instead of one you made, right? That first clip is short and sweet, nothing too flashy so a good way to start off a montage before the actual montage begins. The background during the "A Halo Reach Trailer" could've been chosen better, doesn't really look all that great. Same with the scene before where you used that background. Also, it's not a Halo Reach Trailer. The difference between Halo Reach Trailer and Halo Reach Montage Trailer may only be one word, but that one word sure has a lot of meaning and the difference between a Trailer for Reach and a Trailer for a Reach Montage couldn't be bigger. On that "Starring" screen i waited for the name to blend in or something while the camera was moving sideways. Because i feel like by doing so, you kinda set it up to have the name blend in. That would've looked much better than what you did with the black background frame afterwards. Jumping T-Bag, i've got nothing bad to say about that lol The actual montage clips all could've used some more editing. You did a floatover for one of the maps before clips of that map started, which was pretty cool. But for the 1st map, that floatover came somewhere between the gameplay clips. So for the 1st map that floatover should've been right at the beginning too. Once again maybe with a bit more editing. That "Overkill" writing at 1:41 was terrible. No nice way to say that. The black color didn't stand out at all, the position at the bottom was badly chosen, it came and went way too fast. So yeah, pretty bad job on that one detail. The 3rd map didn't get a floatover which is absolutely fine because there was only 1 clip of it anyways so a floatover for that would've been a bad idea. The half-screen effect was a nice idea. I think. But with all that flickering i didn't really recognize what was going on on the top half. The end screen was alright too. And the music was pretty good, i liked it.

I'm getting the game, no matter what, but i do agree that Halo isn't just the name of a game. And from what i've read on this forum there will be things like Killcams and Autosentries. I have to admit that i'm not looking forward to these additions, but still i'm sure that the game will be lots of fun.

Meh, then i just hope that killcams don't attract all the CoD kiddies. Imagine them coming over and yelling about Qickscopes and Hardscopes and whatnot. I don't like that they put in killcams.

I certainly hope that this isn't true. In a Halo game, there's no place for killcams.

Lol, from what i've heard both men were homeless and both were naked. I guess the Zombieman went insane or was on drugs or something. I'm looking forward to more Florida zombie news in the near future. At least we know now how the world is going to end in 2012.

I won't know about the entire game flow until i play it, but there are certain things that make Halo special and that's important to Halo fans. With Halo 4, i hope that 343i aren't looking to close the gap in differences between Halo and CoD. I am by no means saying that they're copying from CoD though, that's a statement i can't agree with. But if they're trying to be just a bit more like it, that beloved Halo feeling could be gone in the blink of an eye. Or in the switch of a gun. In the 2nd picture i see that the player has an Assault Rifle and a DMR in his Loadout. My question here is: What about the pistol? Will anyone even use a pistol anymore if they can just put those "bigger" guns into their Loadouts? Or will the pistol be so good that it can actually compete with those weapons? Or will it completely depend on the map that's played? In an article i read that the DMR will be good for long range and the BR will be good for mid to short ranges. So if 343i give the guns some type of damage drop over longer ranges, maybe on a close quarters map the pistol will still be used. The Autosentry sounds bad to me. It's too much like CoD's killstreaks. Such a thing won't feel like Halo at all, especially when it's automatic. And how does an automatic Sentry Gun work as an AA anyways? It can be deployed, so it's not really part of the armor. Because i highly doubt that you'll lose your helmet or chest plate when you deploy that Autosentry. So it's not part of the armor and therefore can't really be an Armor Ability. It doesn't make sense to me. Promethean Vision will probably have a balancing aspect to it, so i'm not all that worried about it. And all the other AA's sound alright too. Again, i'll have to play the game first before i can say more. Tactical packages.. wow, again, i hope this won't take away from that Halo feeling that all us fans know and love.

This is a step towards more customization, so i love it. And i also think it's a natural step. The level of customization always increased throughout the Halo series. From armor colors only, to armor parts, to way more armor parts and such things as firefight voices, to this. I like where this is going.

I think the posts in this forum that are actually about Halo 4 outnumber the "Halo 4 copies this and that" posts.

I have the game. And Minecraft breaking sales records doesn't come as a surprise to me at all. I'm looking forward to future updates.

Well, let me tell you this, when Reach disappointed me because my expectations were way too high, i had to find another game and that game just so happened to be CoD. So i played a lot of Black Ops and MW3. Even got into eSports in the CoD sector. So from that point of view, i think that Black Ops 2's approach is pretty interesting. I like how it's set in the near future. On the other hand though, CoDs gonna CoD. The CoD Community is absolutely terrible. Disgusting. So many little kids, so many people whining and beaching, so many campers. The list goes on and on. So the game itself looks interesting to me, i can't deny that. But with Halo 4 coming out in the same month, it's a no contest situation. Bye CoD.

Yep, i agree, i don't like most of the Forge Variant maps and everytime i see that Forge icon in the map selection, i want to erase it off the screen. But i don't want 343 to make new Halo Reach maps. All their focus should be on Halo 4.

Isn't the name of that ability Forerunner Vision? Or are there 2 vision abilities?

Alright, people need to understand that just because CoD has something, that doesn't mean that nobody else is allowed to do it. And not everyone else who uses those features is automatically stealing from CoD. Halo is stealing from CoD because you can make classes and name them? Itch please. Actually, keep the itch because i don't feel like scratching. CoD isn't some god game and CoD isn't the only game that is allowed to do certain things. So what do i say to somebody who yells CoD Ripoff every chance he gets? Go play CoD and stay there.

Ok, the gameplay in that video looks like legit Halo 4 gameplay, but the whole editing and filming kinda has "troll" written all over. Holding a sheet of paper in front of the camera everytime he edits a name into the vid? A VHS tape? I didn't even know these things still existed. I kinda wonder how someone with such last-century technology knowledge can get their hands on Halo 4 gameplay, if you know what i mean. So with that being said, the gameplay looks exciting enough, but i'm sceptical about the video. Smells fishy.

Nope, don't like the idea. As posted above, Firefight with AIs. Also, i don't want to be one of those weak, yucky regular h00manz again, i want to be a Superspartansoldier.

Sounds to me like Halo 3's tug of war gametype in the Action Sack playlist. Probably not 100% the same, but it reminds me of it.

I would like to see the Warthog, the Tank and the Mongoose. And i'd also love to see the Chopper returning. Also, i'd like to see a new vehicle that i call "The Chicken" What is it? Well, it looks like a chicken, it quaks like a chicken and it walks like a chicken. And you ride it. And it makes Donald Duck noises. Yep.

I haven't played Spartan Ops yet, so i don't know if i like it or not. But Firefight was fun, so that's a tough competitor.

i like what i see

Barrels

I don't want the Hayabusa armor to return. I think the reason why it was in Halo 3 in the first place must've had something to do with the Ninja Gaiden games and the main protagonist there, Ryu Hayabusa. In Halo 4, the context just wouldn't be there anymore. So i don't want to see it again, even though i have to admit that it looked pretty cool.

Meh, not sure if i like this or not, i got my Recon during Bungie Day 2009. But i guess it isn't anything special anymore, so might as well give it to everyone.
