Subject: Anyone else think that Halo 4 just looks ridiculous? (in a bad way)

I just saw the trailer and I have to say bravo to 343 industries. Bravo for destroying what bungie spent ten years building in with one trailer. That definitely isn't the chief I remember going into cryo at the end of Halo 3. A built-in jetpack? Really? That doesn't make any cannonical issues. Who are we fighting? Sentinels? Forerunners? Without the covenant or flood or even a halo it won't be a halo game. It's one thing to make a sequel that adds to the story, It's another thing to dig up and make a frankenstein monster out of a beloved series to exploit it's fanbase for a profit. There are going to be three more games with plots so stupid and convoluted that it's going to destroy the reputation of the series. Bravo 343, Bravo for pulling a final fantasy with Halo.

Imagine a triangle. It's perfect, but a little plain. You take a chisel, and carve a small decorative symbol into it to make it a little more interesting. People like it, but it could use a little more.

So you then take a sledgehammer..

Remember Halo 3s debut trailer? That was NOTHING like the game storywise. And the Covenant aren't finished, nor are the Flood.

Nope.
It looks jesus.

Idk I hate when stupid gaming companies take really good ideas from other games... If bungie really wanted to finish the halo series they would have.. but who knows maybe 343 will do a good job.

im pretty sure bungie killed halo with halo reach and who knows maybe 343 will be a breath of fresh air to the halo franchise

"Team shoot the wraith!"
"What's a team shoot and what's a wraith?!"
"It means we all shoot at the big blue thing together!"
"Okay!"

based on the way you type, I would put you at maybe 12.

MM is the only thing that really matters, if the story blows its just like every halo except CE.

Buck - Truly If he was any better, he'd be a Spartan.

OP like I said in the reach forms, The jet pack was built into the Armour like Armour lock up. As such it is only active in zero g. For moving around after all this is the future. It will not be part of normal game play if its not in space. Think about how some one in that Armour would move around that quick. As such the jet pack is probably not powerful enough in regular environments. Also he is in the exact same Armour as halo 3, The only new thing is the pistol and what will be introduce ion the planet. No Armour Abilities for the Win, It s cannon :D

I think EliteSpartan54 is right.
What they do there is just like raising Darth Vader from the grave, building a new Death Star and try to rule the galaxy once more, again.
From thousands of possibilities they choose exactly the one that should remain untouched.
The Human-Covenant war is over, the Covenant itself broken. The flood is eliminated and Master Chief floats deep in nowhere, entirely out of reach of any human colony. It was the perfect open end to stay open.
If they must have a "Master-Chief story" with three new games, they should use the years between the beginning of the war and the events prior to Halo combat evolved.
