  1. I have no idea what your point was here. But, it doesn't appear to actually add to the discussion at hand.
  2. I think that's a good thing though. Halo 4 needs to be able to have its own look and feel, not the same look and feel that has been offered in past Halo games. I'm sorry, but if Halo 4 were to be just like Halo 3, then I would not have wanted it. It would just be the same old game, and I already have the Halo 3 multiplayer so there'd be no point in me spending money on Halo 4 except for the campaign (would be better off to rent it at that point). As far as balance goes, I feel as if Halo 4 is much more balanced than the past Halo games. So what if someone can get a DMR as soon as they spawn? So can you, if you want one. At that point, it just comes down to who is better. Everyone has sprint, and access to the same abilities. In Halo 3, you had to know where the weapons would spawn, and hope to God that you got to a good one before someone else did. And if you were new to the game, then you'd be out of luck because the enemy team would already have all the good weapons and you'd just be getting creamed. Sure, that might be fun for the people who have the unfair advantage of knowing where all the good stuff is at. But, it's no fun for the new guys and they'll just leave Halo because they can't have fun. Halo 4 fixes that problem, IMO. I honestly hope that Halo never goes back to its old style of gameplay. I much prefer the direction 343 is taking it now and I applaud 343 for being brave enough to make the changes. What has GTA V got to do with Halo 4?
  3. My issue has been, and I'm sure plenty of us have seen this is one post or another, when those of us who like Halo 4 and openly express it are being told that we are in denial. Um, if I enjoy Halo 4, but someone else doesn't, that doesn't mean I am in denial. That just means I had a different experience and saw the game from a different perspective than that of the person who didn't enjoy the game. Another point here, it's just a game! A video game, just like any other form of entertainment, is subjective. That means just because someone doesn't like a game, movie, song, etc doesn't mean that it's bad. It just means someone didn't like it. It wasn't for them. So, with this in mind, it's obvious that Halo 4 didn't meat everyone's expectations. Does this mean that 343 ruined Halo? Maybe for some people. But, again, that is subjective. Honestly, I think some people need to just get over the changes made in Halo 4. Some just want it to be a rehash of older Halo titles. Sorry, but, it's called Halo 4 for a reason. That's because it's different from 2, 3, etc. It's not the same game. And it doesn't need to be the same in order to be part of the Halo series. It just needs to follow the story to the best of it's ability and be set in the same universe. Anyway, that's all I have to say about that. (Forrest Gump anyone?)
  4. I don't know if anyone has touched on this issue yet. But, my loadouts continually change back to defaults. I don't know why. But it's getting annoying. They will retain their names, but the rest of it defaults.
  5. Most of the plot holes that you guys are talking about will probably be filled up in the next two games. Not to mention the books that most likely cover many of the subjects. Also, if I remember, the past Halo games had the same "go here, do this, now go here" feel to them. Including the chaotic mess of enemies at time. So, you're points are becoming much less valid, and more so just a gasping attempt to justify your opinions. If you don't like the game, that's fine. I still think it was the most interesting and absolute best game in the series to date. The only game that kept me so into it as to finish within my first 6-8 hours of owning it.
  6. Halo 5 probably won't come out next year. Sure, it'll be released on the next Xbox. But, Halo is never released once a year. Halo 4 took 343 around three years to develop. At least, so I heard. I'd imagine Halo 6 will probably be released in late 2014 or 2015.
  7. It all depends where this poll was taken, who it was aimed at, and how many people actually voted on the poll. I'm more along the lines thinking that the poll is BS. From experience, almost everyone I have talked to (who has played Halo 4) has enjoyed the game.
  8. Check to make sure you have no skulls on before you start the campaign. Because this sounds like it is the result of a skull. The skull is called Blind.
  9. Possibly because of the high quality graphics and cutscenes. Yes, even higher quality than Fallout in my opinion. Ok. Suite yourself. While you're all butt hurt about something so ridiculous and acting like a child, I am going to continue enjoying Halo 4. Jesus, grow up and just deal with it instead of whining like a ***** about it. You people are getting annoying.
  10. I don't see any mention anywhere of Halsey being in prison. I know there was an interrogation at the beginning of four. But that doesn't necessarily mean she is in prison. Also, Cortana said that it was a long shot, but it could be possible for Halsey to fix her seeing as how Cortana is the only AI made from Halsey's own flesh - a sort of clone of the mind.
  11. The reason is that people don't have to switch discs just to play multiplayer. This way it can be accessed while having disc one in the console. And yes, the campaign itself spans the whole first disc.
  12. Do you lack the space for it?
  13. I don't know. On Normal I had a hard time with the Knights not standing in one spot. And if they took enough damage and I almost killed them, they'd teleport away. In my opinion, the graphics in four are way ahead of reach. Reminds me of when I tried playing Crysis 2. Awesome graphics!!! Those small things you brought up are things I never even noticed and honestly they don't bug me.
  14. They also released gameplay footage several times. Sure, they didn't spoil the campaign in their videos. But, goodness did they show us a LOT of multiplayer. Their videos are what made me want to play Halo 4. And I'm glad I did. So far, I enjoyed every aspect of it other than Spartan Ops and the boss fight. Spartan Ops is the largest load of crap I've seen in Halo yet. Wish they would have kept Firefight. But, hey, beggars can't be choosers. What I like: The epic story Gameplay Graphics Enemies Weapons War Games (especially Slayer Pro) Feels Fresh and not the same **** on a different day What I don't like: Spartan Ops Final Boss Fight Wish they would have fleshed out Lasky's character a bit better. I mean, seriously, they made an entire series around Lasky and yet he feels as if he adds nothing to the game or story.
