...or even a good Halo and prefer it over Halo 2 or Halo 3 multiplayer, please post your service record. I'm curious to see these results.

Also, I'd like for you to explain what it is you find more appealing in this game than in 2, 3, or even Reach. Oh, and if you could also state how much Call of Duty you have played in your XBL career that would be great, thanks.

By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest.

But the lenses what about that flare one. Now my spartan looks like hes from Crisis.

Halo: CE is my favourite game from the series. Though I do find Halo 4 to be playable, I don't play it very often.

Major props to my hommie Sheeef. He made Recon possible for me. Long time recovering emails and passwords. And it was his. lol.

>lolbobcats
Oh wait, did someone already do this?

OP: Nah man. Halo 4 < Halo: CE-3/ODST.

Which reminds me, I need to make a new topic explaining a story about kiddies saying Halo 4 is the best Halo. lol

Look at my service record. Same GT as my username.

Muffins are just ugly cupcakes

Halo 4 probably would be my favorite if my old friends that I played H3 customs with were still on enough to play. I didn't have xbox live to play the first 2 Halos so I can't give those a fair rating.

I'd say Halo 3 was my favorite. Do I still have to post my k/d and stuff?

Multiplayer wise, I liked Halo 3, just because I spent the most time on it...Otherwise I never care for multiplayer, I just play to play, Campaign person I am.

BTW, what do our service records have to do with this?

I persist too long after my own defeat,
Yet I still press forward, staggering on my feet.
But I know that my resolution will be my end.
And once I fall, I shall ruefully transcend.

Personally....

Halo 2> Halo 3> Halo 4= Halo CE (Go ahead and hate)> Halo ODST> Halo Reach

It doesn't come close to the magic of Halo 2. Dominion is not better than Invasion from Halo: Reach.

It's better than Halo 3 though.

Why? A couple of reasons.
1) Personal Loadouts means no AR Start gametypes.
2) Hitscan BR and DMR (I live in England, so a red crosshair being a guaranteed shot helps a ton when you're not host and fighting latency across the atlantic).
3) No shield doors.
4) Wider field of view.
5) AAs better than Equipment. No Bubble Shield, Regen Field isn't overpowered, etc.
6) No Snowbound, Epitaph, Onslaught, Isolation, Blackout etc. The Pit is the best map on Halo 3, and IMO Haven is better because it doesn't wall off the two sides of the map, creating blind choke points and standoffs.

3) No shield doors.
But isn't dancing and teabagging behind a shield door with a gravity hammer the pinnacle of Halo tactics?

I think Halos 4's good, but far from being the best.

or even Reach.
So, do you consider Reach to be better than 4? IMO despite 4's problems it's still miles ahead of Reach.

How? I enjoy how most games aren't stalemates, unlike invasion.

My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

Dominion is very frustrating. One base can get a BR and another can get rockets. It's fun to play to rack up an insane amount of kills but it depends a lot on the luck of the draw.

Invasion was also imbalanced because the Elites had NO effective anti-vehicle ordnance. If their Banshee was stolen it was game over spawn killing time.

Neither mode is a shining example of balance but at least in Invasion you knew what weapons you were up against.

That damn AR. lol
It's pretty beefy in Halo 4.

Sidenote: Dominion is pretty fun. My name is also Dom. ^_^

  • 12.20.2012 1:22 AM PDT

Right now, it isn't the best. But it has the potential to be.

Just return all the removed custom game options and more, add fixed weapons spawns on the maps, nerf the DMR's fire rate, add scoring and theater for campaign and spartan ops, fix the fileshare and have better matchmaking playlists.

If all that happens it will no doubt be the best halo game in my mind.

It is my main tool of destruction and I'm quite proud. Also proud of how close my magnum is too.

Understandable.

I guess, there weren't many outside of Snowbound anyways.

4) Wider field of view.

Never bothered me, honestly that was the first time I'd heard about that.

Posted by: ash55
5) AAs better than Equipment. No Bubble Shield, Regen Field isn't overpowered, etc.

I wouldn't say better, maybe equally bad.

6) No Snowbound, Epitaph, Onslaught, Isolation, Blackout etc. The Pit is the best map on Halo 3, and IMO Haven is better because it doesn't wall off the two sides of the map, creating blind choke points and standoffs.

Bad Halo 3 maps are miles better than most of Halo 4's "good maps."

In Invasion, you can't have half your team using a Rocket Launcher.

Also this is just a pet peeve, not a massive complaint, but during last stand, I would rather they didn't give the enemy Overshields. I would actually prefer the much stronger damage boost TBH. At least then, players don't randomly turn invincible when you're in the middle of a fight.
