I fell for it too. Good ol' internet sarcasm. (Though I admit I didn't notice he had a Halo avatar.)

Being that the "hype" was for the actual screens, not the cover, I'd say we don't know yet.
Oh, and if you dislike these shooters why come in the thread? That bored?
Nice! All I want is sprinting in Halo 4, but really, just take out armor lock and I'll be happy. 
Hopefully I can clear out my backlog before Halo 4 launches so I can focus solely on it.
Indeed. And by the same people, too.

No, I'm serious, I want it.
Especially sprinting. He's a super soldier, let him run for long distances. Like BF.
sprinting is in.

Like Dishonored and South Park you mean?

I always find it odd how some say Halo is generic, while others call for it to play and look more like the sea of modern warfare roller-coaster style shooters we have today.
Frankly I'd rather see Halo 4 focus more on having large otherworldly locations, sandboxy play spaces, great combat and engaging enemy AI rather than taking the route of most other shooters these days.

But I like Halo too.
If you want ADS in Halo, you don't like Halo.
Seems so. It looks better than what they hyped it to be.
The first Halo game to implement look down sights will be the first one I don't buy. Think through the implications of such a mechanic to Halo's gameplay. It would stop being Halo.
Looks like it.

You shouldn't critique a game before you've even played it - that's nonsense. Shame on you.
The Xbox didn't have a very long life cycle, so Halo was only around a couple of years before I got around to playing it. Regardless, I played a lot of Quake and Unreal Tournament beforehand, and Halo just reminded me of those games, but with all the personality sapped out of them.
I warned you bro.
ADS In halo is taboo. I personally think it's stupid that it doesn't have it, but rabid halo fans would commit genocide if it happened.
It's no resistance, that's for sure.
You're making me want to punt a kitten.Especially sprinting. He's a super soldier, let him run for long distances. Like BF.
Hm? *looks for screenshots*

not impressed.
cortana looks like she came out of a THQ game

Guessing we will see how the armor system works and probably have an explanation on the MP red vs blue story.
How exactly would it stop being halo? Or is this some reverse troll?
The super running without cost. God. And that that death animation. Seriously. You fall down on your side and just wave you hand? Never changing. EVERY TIME. How did they get away with that?
Yep, don't like Halo. Not at all.
I just want the ability to look down the sights. I feel it's time for that change.
I gave a damn
Some of my favorite more recent covers have been that, South Park and the proper XCom game.

You're such a joke.
Different franchise exist for a reason...it's so that you can play them if they have the features you want.
I like Halo, I just want the ability to go into cover and become a 3rd person shooter. I feel it's time for that change.
I like Halo, I just want dialogue wheels to converse with NPC and have RPG elements. I feel it's time for that change.
I like Halo, I just want want a purely graphics focused game with smaller tight nit battles, and no vehicles in the sandbox. I feel it's time for that change.
It's like why not just play the game with those damn features. Iron sights are so damn idiotic. What's the point of a FIRST PERSON SHOOTER when you need to go into a more FIRST PERSON-ER MODE to actually SHOOT.

I'd rather not be nerfed to make the game more "realistic", thank you. Honestly: Can you imagine going through Tsavo Highway on foot and having ADS? *shudders*

It would add absolutely nothing to the game besides. HEY I CAN SEE LESS THINGS NOW.
ADS is fine but it is not fine for Halo.
fuck it. give me news GI bastards.
Also now I get it.
I so muc hwant forerunner stuff that I forget how much 343i wants to recapture Halo'haloness.
The Chief, Cortana, Space, danger, mystery...it's all on the cover of GI. Good job.
Now give me a forerunner skin for campaign, a forerunner only MP mode and a Didact SP DLC and I'll suck your balls while my girl prepares mojitos for you all.
New MP mode or bust.
SP taken to new heights. Open world feel...

Yea, careful with the Halo nuts over on HaloGaf; change is not a word they want to hear in relation to the game (I happen to agree with them this time).

What would there be to be impressed about? There are no fucking screens yet dude. And that's concept art.
You would be surprised.

Halo is (partially) about fluid, dynamic movement. ADS fucks that up entirely. Bad idea.

Where's Halo Wars? And the Halo anime? No Master Chief action figures?
You're a game designer in training, it seems.
'Having ADS in Halo wouldn't change a thing, obviously!'
You already have ADS on precision weapons, its called a 2x scope.

I was willing to cut you some slack, but you indeed are crazy. Halo plays nothing like either of those games. Well, it's in the first-person perspective and you shoot some weapons at other guys so I suppose that's something...
Halo's gameplay is rooted in combat clarity and fluidity. Aim down sights impacts both greatly.

Why in the goddamn fuck is there so much negativity in here? I don't even know what most of you are complaining about. You, in fact, have not see basically any campaign footage, and very little MP footage. It is by a completely different developer, so I find it odd that some of you would say "just another Halo" or whatever. It was very obviously Halo 4 on the cover from what's been hinted. Last month we got AC3, and it seriously seems like the exact same people complain. I am not interested in The Last Guardian, but that doesn't mean if GI does a cover on it I will simply post "lame" or whatever. I know it's a big-deal game and would be very excited to read the cover story. This constant negativity of these GI covers from the exact same offenders is borderline trolling in my eyes.
This guy gets it.

No Halo Wars?
Not a real fan.
Oh dear, here we go.
Like a lot of the "revolutionary" things that happen in gaming, I look forward to it being simply evolutionary of something we already have.

Then it would be COD/BF. Why would you want that?
edit: I'm asking honestly. Having the screen fill up with a gun? Immersion?
Why not? It makes sense that there would be ADS, fuck "realistic" most weapons in halo have a scope anyway so what's the problem?

You don't say. It reminded me of Marathon more than anything else (which predates Quake and UT,) but that's just me.
