But... no he didn't? He just said that they're going to try some OTHER new innovation to try and bring people back. Bungie did AA's. Now 343 will do something else big to change Halo from both what it was and what it is while still keeping the core gameplay.

Nope. SouthPole isn't a person. He's the avatar of the force of tryhards everywhere. He stalks the web looking for retards to set straight. He can not be stopped by mere bans or thread locks for he shall rise anew.

If the gameplay is similar or close to Halo 3 I'm out for good.


This. It should be closer to Halo 2 and CE. The farther away from Reach the better


I want Halo 4's gameplay to be like the previous games, but have the look of Halo 2/3. I don't mean graphics, I mean Mark VI and Battle Rifles.

I'm going to be highly disappointed if the BR is not back.

Well, Noble was obviously not expendable given how they were equipped with MJOLNIR armor and not that -blam!- tin-foil-and-cardboard SPI or whatever it was called.

And Master Chief is overrated. Thom was much more badass.

Whoa there. I couldn't care less about the story behind the game. I just love Master Chief and his iconic one-line shoot first talk later attitude. Noble 6 can suck a fat one.

Noble Six barely spoke and he still managed to have more personality than John. And if you don't care about the story why would you care about if Spartan-III's were expendable?

Because them being expendable affected the gameplay of the Campaign.

When I think of Halo I see Master Chief--the guy who plowed through Covenant and doesn't afraid of anything. Halo 4 will be better than Reach simply because Master Chief is in it. Players want the Chief. 3 Halo games have come and gone and Chief is no where to be seen. It's like making a Mario game without Mario.

"What the hell did you just say?"

Halo 4 is gonna kick ass!

Halo Wars was still awesome, though.


And I loved ODST. But come on--from an out-looking-in perspective, Halo essentially ditched its iconic character for 3 years. That's obviously taken its toll on the series.

Let's hope H4 strikes with vengeance.

  • 11.20.2011 5:42 PM PDT

I wonder what rifle they are gonna use for H4. Will they go back to the BR or make something different?

Just curious, -how- do you think the BR would come back? MC is floating on half a ship, towards an unknown planet, in some unknown part of the universe. Unless said wreck falls into a low orbit and sprinkles human weapons all over the planet at this point, I don't see how any human weapons could be 'brought back'.

By that logic, the only human weapon in the game would be the pistol.

Well, it was in the trailer. But in all seriousness, how could human weapons show up in a part of the universe humans haven't been to yet (at least since the human covey war started). Unless your supposed to trek back to the wreck every time you need a human weapon in some sort of hub/loadout-at-the-beginning-of-each-mission system.

No a human one like a BR, if not that will seriously stop me from buying the game. The pistol is cool and all but Id much prefer a BR

Again, HOW would a BR get there? You don't come home from work and find a pile of pizza on your table, unless someone with said pizzas came through and dropped them off.

Or the new enemies we will be fighting, what did they do, find a pallet of BRs and think to themselves "Hey now, that guy on that huge halfship is gonna come down here and try to fight us, these look like his, might as well spread 'em out for him."

Is the UNSC going to teleport a BR in right when he needs one? They don't even know where he is, if he is alive, or even have the tech.

So unless its a hub style game (which would leave the game feeling more like Metroid, than Halo), I don't see it happening.

You're right, and it matches that of the chair under my ass. Really, all he exists for is to shoot stuff and be the face of gaming. Even the worst of actors can play a character and have more personality than he ever had.

Well I just listened to the whole thing and surprise surprise all I heard was Frank wants to do something different with Halo 4. He didn't say anything about Reach sucking but of course all the children are going to read WAY too much into this and shove words down Frank's throat just to support their own childish arguments.
