That's a harsh statement, but I agree, Halo 4 lacked a lot of dedication, bad campaign, bad multiplayer and really boring Spec ops, I mean Spartan ops.

Remember when Frankie said "Spartan Ops" was a place holder name for the game system and he didn't give a damn and left it there, even though a lot of people ranted about it?

Lulz. Ok.

OP: Yah this isn't surprising. I'm hoping they will have learned from Halo 4 to make Halo 5 and the rest of them to be complete.
I REALLY HOPE that once the new xbox/gen-box comes out, the newer Halo games that are released around then aren't NEW-GEN ONLY games.

My opinion on this is fact. Like I said, just put in your halo disk. There's the proof.

Halo is becoming like cod. You're a blind fanboy if you think otherwise.

I didn't insult anyone. Actually I've been getting insulted more than anyone here.



Opinions are not fact, believe it or not. Yes, Halo 4 shares similarites with CoD. But it plays completely different. It's a strafe shooter, based on duelling and tactical play. CoD is a twitch shooter, based on reactions and awareness of what's around you.


All this except CoD is based on who gets the first glimpse wins. You cannot really react if you are getting shot at in CoD as you die far too fast.


Yeah, you explained it better than I did. Wasn't really sure how to explain CoD.

This. It's normal for development of a sequel to start just after the previous game. Halo 3 was in development before Halo 2 was released, I believe.

Everyone cares about opinions, that's why we socialize on a forum with strangers.

Yes, thank you for being only the second person in this entire thread to be aware of this.

community feedback.


Yeah, about that...

If we disagree, it's nothing personal, opinions are opinions.
Antagonizing me to build a false sense of worth is so damn cute.

Brighten your day with science.

Good for the franchise.

>A lot of people meaning a few dozen very loud people on forums getting butthurt over the fact it had a similar name.

You do realize that most of the halo population doesn't go on forums and, by extension, doesn't complain about trivial crap right?

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.

Did they say it was guaranteed to be Halo 5 and not something like ODST or Anniversery? Halo 4 is so -blam!- unpolished that it's hilarious, and they're already moving onto the next game?

It will not be yearly release clearly. Halo always has much more variety.
You don't remember Microsoft literally saying they wanted Halo games every year?

If they're just starting work on it now, they mean concept art and story ideas, right?












Right?

Yes. What part of "prototyping ideas, software, and art" is causing you confusion?

I was hoping they would start working on DLC, and deal with other issues with the current game before they moved on.

That said, they could be taking the risk that they've lost a large enough portion of the fanbase from this game, that it might be better to try and win them back with the next.

They're still supporting Halo 4 with DLC

Every developer does this. Once a game has the heavy work out of the way, they start working on the sequel. After the game launches, a small team remains attached to the game or a year or two and supports it with patches/DLC while the rest of the studio moves to the already-in-progress sequel

Example: Some people were already working on Destiny during ODST's development cycle too.

I got my Recon for the '08 VDay tournament for second most kills; 2671.

I didn't "earn" it via VidMasters.

That is why Halo 4 was so unfinished.

Also noting that it's pretty sure and confirmed they won't let Spartan Ops die and specially with a second season if they make it as DLC.

I'm pretty sure they said they wanted to put out a Halo game every two years. I have no source just something I thought I heard.

O'Connor said something about Spartan Ops second season, meaning that they might release or have a second season. So I'm pretty sure they will make you pay for that season when it comes out.

They can't be stuck with Season 1 for 2 years when Halo 5 launches.

Halo 5 better have humanity vs humanity.

If this happens, it will be EXACTLY like COD in that one.

  • 12.06.2012 12:46 PM PDT

I agree guys, I'd rather they start working on Halo 5 in 2015.

Huh, I didn't know Halo played, looked and had the same physics as CoD. Need to catch up...
