It was great.

  • 12.21.2012 11:58 AM PDT

Gamertag: regime change
Steam name should be something similar

The audio is terrible. Why 343i decided to use a chainsaw to make warthog engine noises, I will never know.

It got boring after a few weeks. There's no reason to move around the maps because of PODS and random weapon spawns.

The Wonderful LeSieg!

- lack of UNSC air
- lack of Campaign/Spartan Ops scoring
- lack of Campaign theater
- lack of party theater
- lack of Customs Options
- lack of varied playlists
- lack of Firefight
- lack of hidden skulls
- lack of lengthy campaign
- lack of Spartan Ops offline

I find the game to be alright despite these gripes, I really cannot fathom why they would exclude so many established features rather than building upon them or expanding them. I have the suspicion this game was heavily rushed.

Doc: "i'm a pacifist"
Caboose: "your a thing that babies suck on?"
Tucker: "no dude, that's a pedephile"
Church: "tucker, i think he means a pacifier"

I enjoyed the campaign quite a bit, and look forward to see how they flesh out Spartan Ops. I found the MP to be alright, but to be honest i've been losing my love of FPS MP for years now.

I don't like it. It's not a terrible game, but it's not a good one either, a hollow shell of the Halo universe with the cream filling removed and replaced with something bland and tasteless.

It reminds you of Halo, but it's not Halo. Nothing is "improved", it's just different, and there's a great deal less of it too. The Prometheans are terrible enemies, not at all fun to fight. Their weapons are boring and uninteresting, and the game's campaign FORCES them on you. The music is forgettable at best, you can mute it and not notice a difference. The new design ethic feels like it doesn't even belong in the same evolutionary tree as Halo, especially the new Spartan IVs and Marine BDUs. The new multiplayer format, why try to be like Call of Duty; Halo was distinct, this is just depressing. Spartan OPs makes me miss Firefight, which I originally didn't care for in the first place, but at least Firefight mixes it up a bit instead of throwing the same mission and recycled audio back at you. Worst of all the fireshare is STILL broken 2 months after release.

It also doesn't feel worth the asking price. Content-wise it lines up more with ODST than Reach or even 3.

Again, I won't say it's a terible game, it's just not a good one, and what irritates me is that this is what we're getting now instead of real Halo.

Complete disappoint and a boring, generic shooter.

Goat was famous. Irie was infamous. Gh0st was FaMaS.

My stats in Halol 4

Typical Waypoint post.
no it's "its got to go" you wouldn't say the "it is got to go" would you?

-No map movement in ordinance playlists
-Loadout weapons besides the DMR, Boltshot and Plasma Pistol are pointless compared to them
-Bland maps
-Free maps were revoked for no reason

It just doesn't feel like a complete game.

My Brahman is ready.

It's a turd-covered gemstone.

It has so much potential that's not used right now, but I hope the TU fills some of that up.

The campaign was great, probably on par with Halo 2's campaign. The music, however, was too low. I could barely hear any of the music. Plus, the scenery on all of the levels were weird, but it grew on me.

It just needs more green, is all.

  • 12.21.2012 12:20 PM PDT

Love your friends, Die laughing.

Feels terribly generic for me.


I like BF3 more.

NON FACET NOBIS CALCITRARE VESTRUM PERNǢUM

I think Reach was 10x better than Halo 4.

心の中に弱い風が吹いています。

I think it's great.

  • 12.21.2012 12:30 PM PDT

Pootis

I would go as far as calling it the best Halo game, if it wasn't for:
DMR
Boltshot

WHY THE -blam!- IS A WEAPON BETTER THAN A SHOTGUN A SECONDARY? WHOEVER CREATED THAT WEAPON NEEDS TO GET FIRED

Don't LOL if you aren't L'inOL.

Halo: Reach
Halo 3
Halo ODST

Honestly, I only bought this game for the matchmaking. And I think it sucks. :/

  • 12.21.2012 12:40 PM PDT

Well then, you somehow found my signature, nice job, so time for your prize.............FLOODIANS! ATTACK! Also, those socks do NOT make you look handsome.

They took away my Crimson (it's downloaded to my Xbox, I even played a match of the DLC, then yesterday it won't work), butchered Forge, and killed Custom Games/File Share (no customization).

I think the Mantis is ok, I just don't like the fact that they got rid of other vehicles for a walker.


It was a pretty good game though.

  • 12.21.2012 12:40 PM PDT

A competitive players main goal is to win.
A casuals main goal is to have fun regardless of whether that results in a win or loss.
It has nothing to do with individual skill or knowledge, it has to do with the reason you play.

Disappointment.

Life is a journey, if you spend all of it with your nose in your map, you may miss some of the best parts.

I felt like it lacked variety in some aspects, mainly with the vehicles and maps. Other than that, I kind of liked it.

I love the game.

To bad campaign didn't had a theatre or scoring :(

Or the lack of custom games options.

Those are my only main gripes.

The rest of the game is kickass.
