Halo 4..... The missions are quite boring because 343 screwed the story up and the last mission is sad and hard to complete...... I'm not angry or anything,This is my thoughts after I finished the Halo 4 Campaign at my Friend's xbox......

A REAL forge world dlc for Halo 4 is being hinted at...

PLEASE 343!!!

I actually can't think of a point where halo 4 screws up the story. And while the campaign is rather short, there is also spartan ops (which sucked for the first half. but it got much better) plus the possible announcement of SpOps season 2 at pax.

Halo 4 was amazing. The only thing I didn't like was the changes fundamentally to the covenant. (elites are now brown? Grunts and jackals are completely different). Makes me feel like they all climbed out of a nuclear wasteland.

I'm pretty sure Halo 4 was meant for Campaign as well.

And you know what's REALLY sad?

...How soon a thread can go off-topic.

"Hard to complete"? I think the only sad thing here is that you're complaining because a game is challenging. Legendary is supposed to be hard (Assuming you were on Legendary.) I wouldn't pay for a game knowing that I could breeze through it on the hardest setting *cough* Starwars Battlefront 2 *cough*

It's dependent on your own skill.

If you suck at video games, playing on easy won't help much.

If you are like the king of gaming, the hardest difficulty won't be more than a cakewalk.

Halo IMO is one of the ultimate "skill games". COD is like, whoever pulls the trigger first gets the kill, so don't anyone dare say "O NO U NEWB TEH CODZ IS TAKEZ DA MOWST SKIL EVAH ITS SO REULISTICK!!!1!SHIFT!"

It relies more on your own reaction time.

Lightning fast reflexes and a quick trigger finger with pave the way to victory.

you asked us. Not our problem if you didnt like the answer. It was very sad when halo 4 shredded through logic and stuff.

COD or Halo?

Cuz in COD having a Helicopter killing your enemies for you paves the way to victory.

what paves the way towards that helicopter?

COD.
It also applies to Halo.

To get said helicopter, you need to get your hands bloody from massacring other players.

C4, claymores, an empty building, and a sniper rifle. truly bloody hands.

That's the price of freedom that Bungie had to pay.

You get your hands dirty... after, of course, your perks are done holding them for you.

Here's a conundrum.

I like Halo better, but I play COD more.

What do I prefer? :o




Silenced - UMP
Magnum - Tac knife

Marathon pro
Lightweight pro
Commando pro

Play in:
Favela (tight corners)
Highrise (easily get behind enemy lines)
Skidrow (tight corners)

My blade is inside you before you can react.

I think I may have an addiction to knife running

Saddest moment was when I played H4 and I realized 343 understands the halo franchise better than bungie.

Cortanas Death

yeah in away it was disappointing that they didn't fail i was just like BUNGIE WHY U NO DO THIS

1. 343 Does seem to understand better, Reach and ODST were just two gigantic canon errors.
2. Bungie still brought us Halo 1, so respect them.
3. No more "Halo is better than COD" arguments, okay? This is a HALO forum.

the fall of reach book was literally "what happened right before halo ce". the game does not follow it at all.

Wasn't Halo Reach about the Battle Of Reach... And The book about the Spartan's evolution from badass kids (really, I WANT to go to John's school. KING OF THE HILL!) to... badass men. And women.

Eh, the saddest moment for me was when Miranda died. My eyes actually started watering... It was far more emotional than Johnson's death could ever have been. Plus, I'd already seen a video of his death anyway...

On an actual game note, the saddest moment for me was when I realised I honestly wasn't a big fan of Halo 4...


While the game was INCREDIBLY well made, definitely deserving of an 8/10 and a smile, it lacked that fundamental Halo vibe for me. You know, those epic moments that set the mood. For example, the end of 'The Storm' in Halo 3. Can you honestly say that was not truly epic? And the start of the level 'Halo' in CE, where you saw the two banshees and the... plasma... beacon...thing.

Halo 4 lacked those for me, which is why I find myself going back to the Bungie games...

The book also told the tale of the battle of reach. And guess what? It was all Keyes' fault! He never noticed the Covenant tracking device they stuck on his ship!
Reach also goes against the "Ghosts of Onyx" novel.
Here's how Reach broke canon:
1. There were NO SPARTAN 3'S ON REACH
2. Even if there were, S-IIIs are not nearly strong enough to safely wear MJOLNIR armor
3. Cortana always chose the Chief first.
4. The POA was never on the ground, it was fighting in the space battle, WITH CORTANA ABOARD!!!
5. The game portrays the Covenant invasion taking place over a month, when in reality, the planet was destroyed in, like, two days (because that's just how badass the Covenant are!)
6. Brutes and Drones. Nuf said.

Interesting idea. Actually making a game of 'The Fall of Reach'. However, where would it stand? As a game on the side, like ODST or Wars? Or as a fullblown trilogy?

I would much prefer it to be a game on the side, because I don't honestly see making a full trilogy from that.

If thye did make a Fall of Reach game, it would HAVE to have the space combat near the end of the book, where you try to destroy the Nav Data. Fighting in zero-gravity would just be badass.

If Reach followed the book , it would've kicked ass. But unfortuneatly Bungie decided to create a crap anti-canon story from scratch featuring a bunch of characters who weren't very likable.

The story was more layered and developed the characters far better than any other Halo game, the MP gameplay is my favorite of the series, although the maps are to be desired. Forge Island is just suppose to be some flat surfaces with pretty views for map making, which none of the stock or dlc maps have.

MP is playable.. but I think Halo 2/3 had the best multiplayer.
Also, the campaign was awesome in H4. I loved 85% of it and felt like it was one of the best campaigns in the series (other then halo 1 and odst)

It's been said already, but the saddest moment in Halo history was when Halo 4 was announced. I can't believe people bought into this game, It's a wannabe cod clone with piss tier graphics that, despite it's title, doesn't even play like a halo game. The story is the reflection of a patched up fanfiction written by someone with no more than a 7th grade education. The Multiplayer is a unbalanced piece of s. 343 didn't even try to hide the fact thatthey were just /porting/ parts of call of duty's multiplayer without any justification. Not to mention the lack in content hidden under the reskinned models from Halo reach, a game developed by Bungie, not 343. Even now 343 is realizing they made a huge mistake apparent due to the significant decrease in online players from the release to today, and making "classic playlists" and free dlc that should but won't make up for the sub par gameplay in a package that supposedly promised the same level of gameplay, balance, strategy and replay value that halo 1, 2, 3 and reach delivered. The game was awful

Halo 3 MP is awesome.
Can't say anything about Halo 2, since I have spent practically no time playing MP for Halo 2 Vista.

imagine a whole variety of weapons splayed out on a map, and everybody exclusively uses the BR.

I hardly consider putting extra emphasis on the emotions of artificial intelligence an understanding of a story, let alone an understanding of who the hell cares about what in halo.
