Danger Canyon.

This is good because while you take out the watchers, the knights kill you.

As long as we get the skin pack for all the pre-order exclusives in it I'm fine with just maps after that.

I really hope it's Danger Canyon.

My first impression was... cluttered? Was weird to see the scorpion and gauss hog. And the banshee i was shocked. Man cannons seem like they don't need to be there. Flag spawns seemed awkward. Other than that great can't wait to play on exile. Edit: I like the new mongoose animation for the guy on the back. The Promethean grenade animation for the circle looks too defined and unfinished, needs to be more swirly and energy-y.

Whoa...

Why on earth would they put Steve into the suit to be the physical actor?

Chief is wearing a helmet. They can dub over his voice to make it sound good. The actor running in the suit doesn't automatically need to provide the voice as well since his face is covered. Eek.

The word choice to each their own, but it's his tone and inflection which has fallen off. When he says drive it sounds like he's being influenced by adrenaline and really wants the driver to go. When he says punch it, it's so casual and calm as the entire ship they are on could explode at any moment. I thought Spartans were like cold killing machines. When he says punch it you get a feeling that this extreme and intense scenario and environment has no emotional impact on him. Drive is... I don't know just not on par. Weak imo. Did the old voice actor quit or something?

I'm not a Halo guru or anywhere close. But I think Chief would be used to seeing soldiers bite it by the hundreds. I don't think he would pamper any new recruit at all by changing the tone of his voice... Or for that matter "play nice" to any fellow soldier, playing nice only softens them and could get them killed, which I'm sure he doesn't want at all. Going off of this I'd rather follow that drill sergeant in the ODST trailer than Chief if we are going on inspiration. You can't tell me "drive" sounded anywhere near badass. This is coming from the same soldier that said "Punch it" in Halo 1 and you put on your $#!? yea glasses at that point.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vebkNoMJVQg Despite 0:52 - 1:07 and 1:42 - 1:55 being really dumb imo, this is a pretty fantastic trailer (also 1:21 - 1:42 what are they shooting at? Why would their SMGs be silenced? Guess our main character suffered from temporary blindness and didn't see that huge Brute standing in front of him lol.) The boy's progression from seeing his father's funeral service (???), to joining the armed forces, to enduring the training hardships, to finally being in real combat, to being a hardened veteran being constantly thrust back into combat time and time again until it is second hand nature to him shows war from the ODST's point of view very well. It's exciting stuff and makes you want to be an ODST alongside the hero in the trailer fighting. You know adrenaline pumping fight for humanity type stuff in this new breed of war. Overall my favorite Halo live action trailer. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9z36WDj2PcU Also the Halo 3 trailer was very good, but not live action. Again this is a progression trailer. It showcases Chief's humble origins to his attained Spartan badassness. "Not yet." Is the awesomeness over? NOT YET. Both get you pumped. This Forward Unto Dawn stuff just really isn't doing it for me. I don't care what these kids think. It's that awkward confession room style speech as well. The barbers are way too gentle as well I mean come on. Socially I don't fit in? You get bullied? What is this... "I don't think I could ever kill another human being." Why did you join then, say hi to the insurrectionists. This stuff is good I guess on its own, but there needs to be a good trailer with just the chief that gets people pumped for Halo 4. "Stay close to me, I'm your best chance for survival." What? How about "Follow my lead soldier, there's no time to waste." In that sexy low gravely voice? This stuff is like teenage drama and to me is just flat out uninteresting. I thought we were exploring Chief's humanity more? And when he says "Drive." Oh my God... Remember when he said "Punch it?" How about "Floor it." The Chief has lost his badass edge. We need a Halo 4 trailer with Cortana and the Chief having like conversations in his head. Flashbacks to previous experiences they've had. Then him dramatically being woken up. Then him stepping out onto a ledge on the planet or something and seeing the huge sprawling world before him or something come on. What do you guys think?

8 levels =/= short campaign.

Achievements aren't achievements anymore.

I never thought I'd see the day when this combination of words was used together. I'm not worried about noobs abusing PPs, worried about veterans abusing them.

Why would you be angry? I'm not pissed when I play Tomb Raider.

Danger Canyon. Bring this gem to the consoles.

Why does everyone like Sandtrap so much

Hunters will return. Drones and Engineers I don't really care for. Brutes sure if they are Halo 2 style.

Intense video. The guy playing died so many times rofl. Good thing his team wasn't as terrible. The Prometheans look really dangerous and challenging, especially the Knights. Awesome. I wonder if you can turn off respawns to increase the points you get from the mission.

What... why would they destroy their chances at making so much more money.

I think if it was glued together when you highlighted a piece it would highlight the entire glued "piece." So if you ruined something you would be an idiot.

All that means is you won't unscope if you're hit, therefore making your reticule aim more stable, it's not actually technically making it more stable. Does that make sense? So scoped weapons won't be as disorientating to use in firefights.

Maybe it's just one piece of armor, as the article says the 10th unlock is the gameplay modifiying perk, while the 9 before it are cosmetic armor items.

Ahh I see now, that makes more sense.

I would say out of all the previous Halo maps, I would want Danger Canyon to be brought back for Halo 4 the most. For those of you who have never played Halo 1 on the PC, it was a great unsung hero. I would want probably a reimagining because the map could have some bad spawns, I want it back just because of how unique it was and how it added great verticality into its gameplay, along with a perfect blend of indoor spaces for infantry (and sometimes vehicles) and outdoor spaces for vehicles. http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Danger_Canyon Here are some videos of the map, hard to find good ones. Which Halo map would you most like to see come back as future Halo 4 DLC? A full remake or reimagining? Why? http://en.wikipedia....ultiplayer_maps
