Halo 4

Soul Calibur V
It comes out in november.

Almost everyone was a Halo player at some point. Halo 1 through 3 were amazing games that revolutionized the genre. Halo 1 had a fun multiplayer and an amazing campaign. Halo 2 had a sick multiplayer and a fan's favorite. Halo 3 had Godlike online multiplayer and an hardcore professional scene with MLG.

So yeah Reach, while being a beautiful game and somewhat fun, basically killed the Legendary franchise with heavy changes in movement mechanics and entirely new ones that, being noob friendly and entertaining for a while, threw off the majority of the Halo veterans (Armor Lock).

So, Bungie gave up and passed the baton the 343 Industries to create the real sequel to the Halo series, Halo 4.

So now it's about to come out. Do you think it's gonna live up to the former glory it had in the canon series? Or is it gonna be a sad Halo Reach clone which is gonna die competitively after a few months?

Anyone's opinion is important. Be it former competitive Halo players or casual gamers that just like the game.

Discuss.
 
I do believe there is a Halo thread....somewhere. Anyway...

I do enjoy the Halo series and I am quite anxious at what 343 does with the game and see where they take Master Chief. Each and every Halo's MP has always had the same core gameplay but it always is drastically different. For better or worse.

Bungie didn't "give up". They had a contract with MS for more titles...hence Reach and ODST.(they broke off from Microsoft Studios IMMEDIATELY after the release of Halo 3. I do believe)

The MP for this game...seems like its going COD (like...most shooters) true loadouts, abilities, weapon and ordinance drops based on Kills, Streaks, etc...and taking away the Respawn timer in favor of a "Press a button to respawn"(what I've heard, may be untrue) so Im guessing now you can be an asshole and spawn with a sniper til your heart's content.

Halo is a huge franchise. Even if this thing turns out to be shit...it'll make money. And as long as there is at least 2 mother fuckers nerding over SERIOUS halo dominance, competitive play is staying put. MLG I swear was built off Halo...and regardless of MLG, I'm banking it'll at least be fun to play.

Interested in Spartan Ops(seriously...343. I mean c'mon!)promised additional co-op stuff...FUCK YEAH!
 
Yeah this C.O.D. shit (loadouts and streaks) looks real bad. But I'm not gonna banish the game before I even see it.

It could be like the meter system in SCV for example. Everyone was bitching about it before the game came out, and it turned out to be pretty sweet and now a lot of top players say it might be the best SC in the franchise.

I'm a bit concerned cause before SC, Halo was my main game and it died with Halo 3, (H3 included). I'd like to make my debut in Halo 4 competitive if it's worth it.
 
Guess what game my name is from lol. Anyway I reckon it is looking rather nice so far time will tell on the loadout screen you get to choose between dmr's, br's, ar's and the like you don't get to pick snipers or rockets (der that would be stupid). I like the whole back to MC and Cortana for story, making forerunners more involved and mixing up the gameplay so overall I am excited for it.
