Subject: Would you buy a Spartan Ops Season 2?

Yes, becuase I wasn't over hyped. I wish there was more interactions and CGI between characters of Crimson team in-game though. Becuase the "episodes" are just horrible and leaves out a great deal of what happened

No. The gameplay is far too repetitive and the cutscenes would be posted online eventually.

They call me graland.

The three most annoying things are Palmer saying "eggheads" every 5 seconds, Miller saying "bad guys incoming" every 10 seconds, and the ridiculous amounts of lag.

Re-using levels doesn't really bother me, because they mix up the scenery, weapons, enemies, and vehicles every time. And only about half of them are from campaign or multiplayer; there's already been a good number of Spops-only levels. And I don't understand why everyone hates Palmer so much; she's annoying at times, but she's not the horrible character you guys make her out to be.

Never give up, never surrender!

It'd only be worth paying for if:

A: The chapters were the same length as missions like "The Ark" and "The Covenant from Halo 3."

B: They paired that Season with a map pack.

I dont think so, but I'd pay for a patched-in (customisable) firefight on the existing maps

I gaze upon the stars and see the majesty that is the universe.


EGO mos bulla astrum.

Yes. The characters are funny and cheesy like pretty much all Halo characters in the games. I'd love to see some new environments. However, this is the first season and is pretty much a test run so I have faith a second would be better.

Y'all realize that there's about three or so people that do Spartan Ops, right? That means they're probably doing everything by themselves and have a big task to complete in just week. It's much easier to use existing spaces rather then making completely no ones. I also recall fr a ViDoc that they have a lot restrictions with space and for Spartan Ops.

I'll be purchasing the nest season because it's more fun than lolfirefight.

They don't make them every week lol

Paying to play on the same maps over and over again? Doing the same objectives over and over again? Yeh I think I'll pass.

  • 11.29.2012 11:17 PM PDT

Paying to play recycled mp/campaign maps filled with covies? No thanks.

I'll watch the cutscenes on youtube and that's it.

Spartan Ops is pretty stale, it feels like a chore to play. I just watch the episodes each week and never play them. But despite this I would probably buy them.

  • 11.29.2012 11:27 PM PDT

Signatures are for little kids.

Don't think I'd buy it, but I don't mind the Spartan Ops thing so far except for some bad lag in multiplayer here and there.

At least there is no Cortana in Spartan Ops, talk about an annoying character.

Not sure if my expectations are too high, but I just thought Spartan Ops would be more awesome. You know, board a Covvie cruiser in a stolen phantom and place a nuke inside that -blam!-. Not just, you know, kill fuel rod elites on Fortress. Also, hunters.

lolwat

At least Jen Taylor gave a good Cortana performance. In Spops you have Palmer and Miller running off generic cringe worthy and repetitive dialog. "Crimson, Eggheads, Crimson, give them new toys, Crimson, get the bad guys, more crimson" - I mean, seriously.

Do you even Halo 4?

Eventually? The cutscenes are posted the same day the episodes go live. They're the only new thing with each mission.

He was giving his opinion as everyone else in this thread is. Except for you, that is.

OT: Perhaps. We will see.

Being a douche defeats your point.

Debates are like jaw breakers; you eat away at one layer, only to find another lying beneath. Also, they cause people to choke up and die sometimes. True story.

Thorne is respectable
I want him to be a main character, because he has a good background and his discussion with halsey this episode was nice

Thorne got his spotlight this week, and I guess the other members of Majestic will get their own close ups as well, but thus far they all seem like shallow characters who are only remotely important because they are Spartan IVs.



I think he's intentionally getting the spotlight. The limited edition did come with some of his personal journal entries and other information, I think 343 is prepping to be one of the characters that complements Chief in the next two games (hopefully).

He's the only Spartan 4 (so far) that has a demeanor more along the lines of the Spartan 2 candidates, and not just some super-powered jarhead. I would greatly appreciate it if 343 brought more of that attitude into Halo 5/6.

Hell, I wouldn't mind playing as someone like Thorne in a future Halo title.
