NON FACET NOBIS CALCITRARE VESTRUM PERNĒ¢UM

So is this another vie for 343i to try to breath life back into the corpse that is H4? I wish they did better with this game, it's made me lose what ever little faith in 343i.

poor ilitch

I haven't played Halo competitively since the Halo 3 population died, due to a lack of a trueskill system in Reach. I finally got around to playing H4 online. Not happy with the gameplay direction the series is taking, but trueskill is definitely enough to make me invest some time in the multiplayer.

Blops 2 is better. Halo 3 will be the last great one. Is the last great one.

That's right.

Too bad MLG is the worst thing that has ever happened to Halo.

Nope. You're thinking of armor abilities and bloom. Think before you mouth off such ridiculous nonsense. MLG is a great thing. Appeals to the competitive crowd. If you're not competitive and just a casual player, don't play it. So simple.

Yeah. I'm not.

The absence of key features of Halo is moronic. Developers know the competitive crowd will hop over to MLG since it's all about making caps for the next game.

Look. I'm a good fracking Halo player, but I want Halo, not some lousy warthog-less ripoff. Saying it'll all be fine with MLG's return is just utter nonsense.

No, drops are not random... The friggin' rewards are.

If the drops werent random it would be consistent and wont be dependent on luck.. Which is good. Its better to get a needler, grenades, speedboost every time than get a random anything to the point you could get a rocket launcher, damage boost and a concussion rifle.

You roll a binary rifle everytime I feet needler and speed boost. Seems pretty random to me. But you're a competetive player you know. Did you say they require skill to earn? 5 kills and it stacks after you die please be joking.
First you imply that the binary rifle is the obvious choice in any situation, implying that it trumps a speed boost or needler in every map in every situation. Then you say that a skilled team won't work together to out gun the other time in a firefight, preventing them from getting any kills to earn an ordinance.


My sides have folded in on themselves and open a trans-dimensional portal into Candyland.

Not gonna get Halo. There's too much pointless -blam!- in Reach and 4. All of the new aspects are not Halo. Bloom is the most retarded things ever added. AA's are right there behind. Of course in 4 compared to Reach, it's not near as bad. Doesn't mean however it's still a stupid aspect. Halo 4 was NEVER known for those things. Point and shoot. It took the fun out of playing the game. I loathed Reach. I hate 4. But I'm not gonna stick around like most of the community and complain because it doesn't matter. I'll stick to Blops and Gears. Better online experiences.

  • 12.25.2012 9:20 AM PDT

I think someone is relying too heavily on a single person (Bravo) on taking over all control of Halo 4's map/gametype design...

  • 12.25.2012 9:21 AM PDT

And just so everyone knows, the reason why Halo: CE was such a huge success, multiplayer wise, was because it was unbalanced.

You're obviously not on my level. Reach is a lesser Halo, but 4 sure has her qualities. Customs is fracked up bad, but aside from that, it's not a bad game.

Besides, MLG is fracking ghey. There's a reason why it's equally hated as Reach.

You're obviously retarded. CE's marvel was the innovative gameplay and easy access due the console.

I might be overreaction to your moronic statements due your affiliation, but you sure know how not to get on my good side.

Customs is awful. Everything is just opinions. Opinions, opinions, opinions. No one is going to be on the same level. All of our perspectives differ. Halo isn't what it used to be. Never will be again. LOLOLOLOLO.

Currently the forge maps planned for H4 MLG include a Lockout Remake
Is it even possible to create a Lockout remake with Halo 4's Forge?


I'm sure it is, if you find the right map and space for it.

Do people not realize how much space they actually give you in the 3 forge pallets? When you are in the forge ball mode everything looks a lot less spacious (more so in this game than other halos for some reason). If you don't believe me then just fly to the outer limit of a map, spawn a platform and exit forge mode while standing on it and look at a reference in the distance. Impact is actually huge, erosion has a large inner area and a very large area over the lake. Ravine is the only one lacking in a huge amount of free space.

Sure, they aren't like forge world, but are still plenty big.

Compared with what? Quake 3, the best FPS around at the time? Halo 3, who wasn't around at the time?

  • 12.25.2012 9:29 AM PDT

We're not on the same level here. You think you know everything. I didn't say that's the only reason why Halo: CE was so successful. Dumbass. It's a big part of it, but no one was aware of it. Paid attention to it. It was unbalanced. How -blam!- difficult is it for you to wrap your mind around that? Ever play Gears 1? Game was hella unbalanced. Look how "successful" the series is now. Did you know Cliffy's vision for Gears 1 online was nothing the way it turned out? It was great on accident. Just like Halo: CE.

On my -blam!- level yet? Then there's sequels add. Becomes a trilogy. Etc. Halo gets player friendly, just like the rest of the world. Mimicking aspects of CoD. AA's. Bloom. The stupid goddamn EXP ranking system. I want True Skill back. Ranking playlist wise. I don't want to have to get EXP to get a gun. Or a cool helmet. Loadouts in 4? Dumb. Be nice to pick up ammo from spawns, like Halo originally was. Copying CoD.

They tried. And you're calling me a retard when your -blam!- isn't making any sense? MLG didn't ruin Halo, you idiot. Expanding and trying to appeal to the Cod crowd, and being player friendly did.

I never liked MLG in the past but I'll definitely give it a try. I want to like Halo 4 so bad.

Agreed. All the changes are good and add variety. Do we really want another Halo 3? Just running around with one gun and no armor abilities? It's good that 343 wants to try something new. Do we really want the same thing for three more games?

The core is slightly better than Reach, but worse than the original trilogy.
