@L0d3x: I thought the armour abilites added some variety to Halo's stale system, Halo 1, 2 and 3 are basically the same games with a few adjustments here and there.

World at War + Black Ops = Worst games ever

I will ad,it that halo 2 had the best vehicle vs power weapon balance out of any other halo game I played, in reach you're lucky if you last a minute in a ghost, and in halo 3 you're practically invincible in one

In my opinion, Black Ops is the most balanced Call of duty, although to a point where the gameplay is linear and never changes. I like it, but it does get boring after a while.

MW2 however, is the most unbalanced game I've played, I mean I hate going to a guy that has the ghilli suit and a sniper rifle, only to have him pull out a shotgun and shoot me, yet I still play this game cause it's fun.

Btw I'm not dissing what you said, I respect your opinion and just decided to offer a bit of a counter-claim. I haven't played WAW, but can you explain what it is you hated about Black Ops?

We're kinda getting off topic here, oh well.

Sprint is amazing. Period.

Yet there are no plasma pistols in real life that can EMP electronics.
There are no Plasma Weapons at all in real life.

If it was that big and powerful then it could make sense for like artillery lol imagine that plasma artillery that would be insane.

Excellent read, I suggest anyone capable of critical thought read this, and the rest of you just keep insisting this new halo game will be the best thing ever.

Actually hes pretty right. It's obvious that its most likely to be crap... Your all just to blind to see otherwise than "OMG A NEW HALO GAME WITH MASTER CHEFF"

Especially agreed with the ADS issue. Absolutely agree.

you guys need to CHILLL with the teaser. its not even in game! its CGI!

ya guys y u say its bad its just a trailer !!!!!@$#!$%!#@$%@#%!#

Tbh; the trailer wasnt all that exciting. Even the way mc's body posture wasnt looking right as he exited the cryotube. If 343 couldnt even get it to look right when doing a simple exit (& dont go all saying 'BUT THEY GOT THE GRAPHICS ALL PRETTY LIEEKKKKK!?!?!???!111111oneoneone'), then they got rid of my hopes of the game.

Would you all be that excited of the game, if it didnt say halo4?

Just watched the trailer, and I think there's been better ones than this. Still, let's wait for it to come out first.

AC revelations. <3 Now, that was an epic cinematic trailer. :o

AC?

Assassins Creed. GET ON THAT SHIZ ASAP

Red vs Blue Season 9 trailer :D

I have a feeling they're gonna pitch forerunners as the main enemy now. Which would be stupid. Better not be.

I think they are. Personally, I reckon Halo4 is NOT a suitable name for it.

Unless they have another covenant army
(seeing as there were mutiple holy cities and armies/battalions), they should bring a new covenant armada into the storyline & have whatever habitants of that forerunner world thingy as your allies.

Give mc a new suit (with different abilities and so forth) and have
the forerunners (im assuming that there are forerunners live in the artificial world) as his new allies.
Which means they can still have those massive "never before seen battles" still implemented
(bigger covie army + forerunner army = mass explosions,
mass explosions = "big battle" :3)


The whole 'humans vs another batch of humans vs forerunners' idea is just plain out retarded. It just makes halo 4 seem like one of those BG mods with covenant/marines/sentinels and calling it a "unique, epic battle!".

._____________.

More excited than I am now, since no one seems to be able to make an original IP anymore.

LOLGUISE LETS REPOST THE VIDEO THAT ALRADY WERE POSTED!!!
Seriously, I can understand LinkMaster refreshing it once, but twice?

Wierd how it doesn't predict Halo 9, which will be the end to a trilogy of trilogies. Wait, so Halo will be humanity's salvation from overpopulation? Cool!

If they do include AA, Sprint and Evade should be the only ones available to the player (Jetpack being used only in outer space, of course) - Spartans can run in excess of 50 Mph, and those suits of armour aren't friggin concrete blocks :|

Then again, Bungie/343i FUBAR'd Halo's storyline when they completely ignored the novels -_-

Hnnnngggg oh lord that statement almost killed me. The games came first, games > novels as far as events in the storyline go.

Yes, but the vast majority of the novels came before Reach, and Reach was the one that eff'd up the storyline...I guess I should've made that clearer >.<

Maybe the guys at Bungie thought "hey, we make the games, they write novels on OUR games! Not the other way round! We make the rules! (in this case story)" and they changed the Reach story just to prove that point.

lol or.. the canon issues are explained in Halsey's journal.

Actually, Bungie never bothered about Halo after the third installment in the franchise. If there is anyone to blame for Reach, it's 343.
-Zekilk

You do know that Bungie made Halo: Reach...right?

I don't see any Canon issues with anything Bungie made simply because they make all canon through the games. Games first, novels second, and all of the small details can superceded by Bungie's new canon because it simply doesn't matter whether the Autumn was in or out of atmosphere.

Yes, but he has a point. Even though Bungie did indeed make Halo ODST and Halo Reach, they never intended to do and was more 343's (Mircosoft..) idea than anyone elses. I recall Bungie once saying they only really wanted to make Halo 1 - 3, and then make the Fall of Reach a movie.

Reach still turned out to be a nice game, and Forge 2.0 was something the community really needed.

I absolutely loved ODST as well; the atmosphere was simply incredible.
