Only play when the map is Ragnarok just for that nostalgia.

Of course the nostalgia quickly disappears when I get cross-mapped by a Binary Rifle.


That map is the reason why I turned H4 off today. Spawn killed by snipers in the middle of the map, and two mechwarriors walking around our base.

Custom games are finally beginning to appear, and that's the only reason I play it. I don't even care about matchmaking and spartan ops anymore. 343 need to stop trying to make Halo something that it's not, and take it back to what made it great.

Campaign is decent, Spops is meh, but Multiplayer is a cluster-blam!- of trash and decomposition.

343 really do need to step it up because people are getting frustrated with the multiplayer aspect of it.

i mean comparitively, if i ask for a comparison of halo 4, i would assume you would compare it to game within the same genre, because halo 4 is a first person shooter you would compare it to halo first person shooters, not a halo fts. i'm not saying halo wars isn't a halo game, but it it's gameplay is VASTLY different from other halo games, so while saying i've played 9 halo games, we are talking about a halo fps, thus playing halo wars should have no impact on how you feel about a halo fps, while the lore is the same, the gameplay are diverse and seperate.

Nice quote. I assume this was for me.

He wasn't comparing Halo games, he was just saying how many he's played.

I am forever noob!

It sucks.

I liked the campaign, not something I would replay. Spartan Ops I couldn't care less about. And multiplayer was fun but I have no desire to continue playing.

It's even worse then the previous titles.

I think I played it for a few days before completely abandoning it. One playtrhough of the campaign and a few hours matchmaking.

It only sold because it has "Halo" in the title.

I'm an Indonesian Halo (and other games) gamer!

Pretty okay...


...mostly because I only played it a few hours in a friend's house

Great campaign, rather unimpressive multiplayer, Spartan Ops is clearly a crap way to add replay value to a story-like mode.

Honestly, I think halo 4 is the best. Maybe not the best for its time, but I'd pick it over any of the others. Would anyone seriously rather play reach right now?

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 only play it with friends, if ever.

Halo4 is great!

Yes. That game wasn't a cluster-blam!- and had better replayability.

Its a hit or miss. Campaign was great. Spartan Ops was good until the lag came about along with the increase in difficulty and inept teammates.

Multiplayer is just not something you want to go in alone. Teamwork is key to fun and winning in this game.

What house has a rocket pod, has legs, and has a long narrow barrel that probably shoots something powerful?

Sounds like you're describing the lower half of my body, actually.

I think it is the worst.
Halo CE
Halo 3
Halo 2
Halo Reach
Halo Wars
Halo 3 ODST
Halo 4

Sorry but glorifying the game as a good game would do it no justice.

Solid campaign. Multiplayer is fun, but it sacrifices a lot of the gameplay philosophy that had previously made Halo a peerless dynasty.

Bonus points for veteran Halo Players.


fix'd

OT: Yes, the game does have a few faults (Promethean Vision, Boltshot) and veers from the arena shooter formula, but is still an entertaining game. It doesn't quite live up to the original trilogy, but is still able to pave a path for a new one.

All in all, I think the game is worth the price, and is worth playing. I will admit though, I find myself playing Slayer Pro rather than standard because of annoying PV, Bolthshot seekers.

naturally posting this post on halo waypoint, (been worded almost the exact same) got my account banned for 73 hours, so i'd figured what the hell, what do you floodians think.


Did you really get banned just for this post? That seems sort of ludicrous to me, just getting banned for stating an opinion. Regardless of how good the game is, that really shows a lot of insecurity and unwillingness to take critisizsm. Game developers should, in my opinion, be very open to at least considering suggestions and listening to respectful critisizsm.

I personally was a little disappointed with the end of the campaign on legendary. However, I can't comment on the rest because I haven't got there yet. I overall pretty happy with it at the moment. I do feel the campaign was missing a special touch, just can't put my finger on what.

Unmemorable and boring.
