Hmm...probably something 343i will ignore to keep the fluidity of the game lol. Similar to inconsistencies in movies that keep the fluidity of the film, Im sure it will either be passed over or loosely explained. But from the information you have submitted I agree that it is not possible for Chief to have survived 4 years without any sort of ill affects.

i think someone needs to write some work for 343i personally lol

It would be a cool idea, however it will never happen. Halo made the XBox as popular as it was and has defined the 360. Halo will always remain a Micro$oft product, especially now that it is developed by 343i, Micro$oft itself.

Ok Dog sounds good, I wasnt sure which one would get more activity but yeah this one has a poll so that sounds good to me I disagree Zuko, if a map is good enought than let it be for custom games but not official War Games mp. The only maps in War Games should be official 343i created and play tested maps.

Im just a Mythic...I am trying to get my KDR up from 1.34...which is low in my opinion

I mostly play the Anniversary playlists cuz the rest of Reach has turned into garbage. I love BTB Anniversary

hmm thats strange for sure...maybe Female Spartans are just more manly. I mean Kat was pretty manly for a woman

Yeah I have the Durandal nameplate at the moment...I suppose I am fine with that. not like it will really matter when Halo 4 comes out, I will probably never return to Reach.

i dont know about that, I think it would be kind of cool to be stuck in a pcikle of some sort and than BLAM!! MC busts in and owns everything and helps you out. I think having characters form the campain make cameos or quick appearances will do a great job of tying Spartan Ops into the campaign and MP

The publicly made Forge maps in so many of the Reach playlists are garbage. I really hope that 343i does not cop out and let the community continue to make unbalanced maps for mp. It was sad when Bungie gave up and let the community do all the work (bad work at that), so I hope 343i does not do the same thing down the road. I would rather pay for legit 343i made maps than have to play on garbage community made maps. There is my rant lol What do you all think?

The Publicly made Forge maps that are in so many playlists are garbage. They are unbalanced and riddled with problems. Why did Bungie and 343i just give up on making maps?

Agreed, Reach Infected or Alpha Zombies is lame, even when you get the basic Infected gametype it is not the same. The closest I have gotten is the Anniversary FFA Infected gametype which isnt bad

As far as I know you can only get it with the bungie app which I do not know is still active or not. And nameplates can still be changed as far as I know through Bungie.net

The campaign brought new elements to the table which was kind of cool. I liked ODST and its somber feel, and transition from MC. So yes to an extent I like Reach campaign. However I do agree that the characters were hard to connect with. Kat was lame, Emile was a punk. Carter was stereotypical. Jorge and Jun were the only cool ones. I only use sprint, armor lock is only good against vehicles. jet Pack is worthless if you know how to play the game. Hologram is lame (glad it is being updated for Halo 4), and active camo was not active camo. The mechanics of Reach are busted and the weapons do not function as they should. A headshot should be a headshot, a stick with a sticky should be a stick etc. Reach was ok...Halo 2/3 were way better

Hunter rank should be above the Brute titles, Hunters own all infantry really

A Flood-Add on will be lame, the flood were a pain in the butt and just annoying so I am all for not having them in any form of the game.

Spartan Ops takes place a bit way through the campiagn and continues shortly after the campiagn ends. And 343i did say that characters form the campaign will make cameos or making passing appearances in Spartan Ops, which could very well include MC.

So I noticed that the personal kill feed appears in the middle of the screen, for example. "You killed blank with a headshot" and that your personal kill does not appear on your kill feed in the lower left. It appears that only the other players kill/ death status appears in the kill feed. I really hope that it still is more transparent and not as big in split screen situations. What do you all think?

343i has stated that the controls will come as is when the final product launches. However, due to tha amount of complaints on the controls for RTX and SDCC, GreenThumb and Bumper Jumper are already being tweaked and they said that Default may change some too. I too wish that a custom control setting was implemented, but it will not be in Halo 4. Perhaps in Halo 5?

I am sure 343i will not promote cheating, so yes they will have their own banhammer. However, Bungie's so called banhammer really did nothing. I have played countless games where someone has been using an aimbot, lag-switch, or some other form of cheating and still nothing happens. So hopefully 343i because they are M$ will be more strict and ban more people. However, the quit ban is rediculous...just saying. If the game was fun people would not quit as much. People quit Reach now because it is not fun anymore. Halo 2/3 people quit far less than on Reach

Wow the Default really does look like Optimus Prime!! Lol. As long as ODST and Scout are in I am happy. Reach had a good amount of customization, and yes as previously stated, 343i has said that there will be more customization than in Reach. I am excited for Halo 4

I agree with the above posts, SPOPS will be far more interactive for the player than FF. FF was way too repetative and could be manipulated by the player too much. Adding a game mode that ties both into campaign and multiplayer will be a big hit.

Bloom is the expansion of the center reticle when firing a weapon continuously, thus increasing the spread of the shots fired. There has been bloom since Halo CE, however, it was not until Reach that Bloom became visible to the player.

Go for PC due to its well roundedness and day to day use. Besides a new Micro$oft system will most likely be released in 2013/2014. And until then, you can get a pretty cheap 360, just trade in some games at gamestop and put that towards a 360.

Anytime, that is what the forums are here for. And of course once the game is closer to relase, more will be announced about all aspects of Halo 4
