Saved myself 20 euros on DLC, really am satisfied.

Hey I am a big Bungie fan ever since I played Halo 2. I love the series, I love Bungie. I have made a few Bungie logos in my metal shop.

Dlc and some paper and a booklet but the package was all briefing kit themed.

A real test of a man is if he is willing to scrape a sharpened razor up and down his junk just to please a woman.

LE costs pretty much the same amount as just Halo 4 + season pass, and t has extra crap in it, too.

Armor, specializations that other people cannot get.
...how is that fair to people who bought the regular version? Do these armors and specializations give you and advantage? Doesn't that essentially make it a "pay to win" model?

Uh, no, the specializations are really potent, so if the LE was the only way to get them, it would absolutely be pay to win. What's funny is that Microsoft is still derping with the hassle of free codes instead of just unlocking the specizalisations for everyone on 11/30.

The rest of the specializations have been unlocked for regular version owners today. Have you even played a Halo game? Armor doesn't give you an advantage.
actually it does in Halo 4. The Forrest armor skin allows you to camouflage without usin camo and etc

9/9/09 Bungie Favorites- Champion
5/22/10 HaloCharts Favs- Prey

Well you got the game $60, the next 3 maps packs $30, the extras (booklet, FuD, Avatar stuff, in-game emblem, early access to all the specializations). So if the extras were worth $10 to you then you got what you paid for.

Nope they've been released to everyone for free except Europe.

For me it was the war games map pass that made the deal I would have to pay $40 in MS points b/c of my current situation and the game so that already makes it worth $100 right there. The early specializations, Foreward onto Dawn, and various armors + avatar stuffs is worth $25+ in my eyes so I'm getting $130 worth of stuff for $100. Yes I am happy with the L.E.

You get the DLC for free, unless I have been lied to.


It's not really free when you pay extra for the LE content.

The next 3 maps packs $30

Which everybody else is able to buy.

FuD
Which is already posted on the YouTube. If the extra 90 minutes already isn't. It's going to be posted on YouTube.

Avatar stuff.
Which is something you and everybody else is hardly ever going to see.

In-game emblem.
Which you're probably not going to use because the game has other emblems.

Early access to all the specializations.
Normal people are going to get the specializations at some point.

  • 12.01.2012 4:29 AM PDT

Multi-trillionaire modern cowboy.

That's right.

I bought it for 75 euros in the store. Lucky me.

- But cheaper.

- Fair point, they should've put it on a disc.

- Avatar stuff is cool and you know it. It's just a cool extra.

- Exclusive in-game things is fun for showoffs

- For the people who care about ranking, this helps.

I hate to brake it to you, but you already payed the $40 in MS points for it when you bought the LE. So either way you really didn't save any money on it.

Foreward onto Dawn.

Various armors.
Nope. That's just the console edition that got armors. The Scanner/Strider helmets are included in when you buy the War Games Map Pass.

Avatar stuffs.

You saved what about $10 on it? I wouldn't call that a big save.

Avatar stuff is cool and you know it. It's just a cool extra.
No I don't care about avatar items. It doesn't matter how "cool" it is. You and everybody else is hardly ever going to see it. Exclusive Avatar items is pointless because of that.

Exclusive in-game things is fun for showoffs.
-Unless you pick up that Assault Rifle. Your teammates and enemies are not going to see that skin.
-I really don't think the other players care about that LE emblem. Like I said the game has other emblems.

For the people who care about ranking, this helps.
Like I said it's going to be released to the other population at some point. Also: "Standard Edition Halo 4 owners who play the game while connected to Xbox LIVE by November 20, 2012 (two weeks after release) will receive early access as well"

The majority of the items in the LE are things that are going to be released and are already out.

Armor, specializations that other people cannot get.


Some of the preorder armor was actually just unlocked at a later level. Even some of the weapon skins.

And they just emailed my extra specializations yesterday.

So yeah, you LE buyers got taken for a ride.

No, you get the Scanner and Strider with the L.E.

I get to watch FOD from my console without have to get up from my bed to get the labtop as my desktop's motherboard needs to be replaced. <- I'd have the labtop sitting on my lap too, with the digital content I can fall to sleep and watch comfortablely, under my comforter to Halo goodness.

The avatar and specs I don't care about that much about but it is still cool having them - already SR 130 whoohoo!

Even with just the map pass I'm still going even at $100 which is what the L.E costs and I getting a lot of extra stuff for no extra cost.
