Beat it on Legendary, co-op. I think it is the best Halo campaign.

343i's storytelling far, far, FAR surpasses Bungie. It would be hard to obtain a wider gap. That is the most notable improvement between the studios. Everything else was as expected. Very solid, very fun combat, very good AI, and some nice new enemies to fight. Ending was really good and very definite.

No, as well as the Mammoth there are three vehicles we've never driven before in Campaign.

Spoiler

Mantus, Pelican, and Secret Halo Vehicle?

 

[J-Roderton]

Got the money to buy an Xbox on Monday, a case of PBR, and Lamb of God CD in the deck. Tuesday can't come soon enough. Time to fuck shit up.

Damn you, life and responsibilities.

Just finished Cryptum. Last 4th of the book blew my mind, going to try Primordium right now even though I hear its difficult to get through. Wish me luck.

I suggest you bring some sort of moisturizer.

Here's a part of my Halo 4 review after many hours with the game.

Absolutely stunning, would never read again, 2/10

I AGREE! BEST REVIEW EVER! DON'T STEAL MY RAILGUN!

 

[J-Roderton]

Wow. The Mantis looks insanely powerful.

 

[strafer]

The soundtrack is neat.

 

[erpg]

Here's a part of my Halo 4 review after many hours with the game.

Any game that makes me feel like a kid is a good game in my eyes. Good review, Tashi.

 

[ZROCOOL]

Anyone gonna catch sportsnation in a little bit?

 

[ultron87]

Tashi is clearly a corporate slave of the rail lobby.

Level design? Any larger open levels like in previous games? The only criticism I've seen that actually has me concerned are the mentions of narrower more linear levels.

 

[Naked Lunch]

Its tough to find a clear, definitive answer on the net - but will Halo 4 have friendly fire enabled for online matchmaking?

I hope so.

 

[Roche]

Hey guys posted this in the other thread, didn't know it was about to be locked up thought I'd post it here instead.

Holy shit just won a Halo 4 "biggest fan" contest for Ireland, I'm invited to the launch and I get a Limited Edition copy of Halo 4 among other goodies. I just thought I'd post here to thank
Hydranockz for posting about the contest I wouldn't have seen it otherwise. Thanks bro!

 

[L1NETT]

Good review Tashi, more balanced than the IGN one ;-)

Quick question, is Extraction a gametype playable at launch? Haven't seen it anywhere in the launch playlists.

How else will I be able to steal your sniper rifle?

 

[GavinGT]

Alright, I re-did my Duke-360 hybrid controller in a way that doesn't look like total garbage.

Looks like a 360 controller, feels like a Duke.

The handles are straight off a Duke controller, and the tape is there to smooth over the imperfections from the transplant. I'm so ready to kick some ass with this thing online.

 

[Demoncarnotaur]

I swear I saw a warthog with no chaingun on Longbow on the Machinima stream.

 

[Gabotron ES]

halo 4 tv spots everywhere in here, I can feel the hype mang

 

[Kibbles]

And Marty also gets a crown in that story for Halo 2.

I love Halo 2's soundtrack, probably my favorite of the series...

back to work

 

[RebornYeti]

I'm kinda happy that we can somewhat recreate Dino Blasters again in Halo 4.

 

[Homeboyd]

Anyone gonna catch sportsnation in a little bit?

Oh shit. Just happened to be watching. This is great.

EVERYONE TURN IT TO ESPN 2 NOW.

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

Halo 4 SportsNation is on ESPN2 now.

They just ran over a Tebow cut out in the real Warthog.

It is generally the same. It doesn't get as big as the previous ones, though.

 

[MaximumFlipFlop]

CVG's statement in regards to Halo 4's Campaign.

So, deep breath... Halo 4 is to Halo 3 what Halo 2 was to Halo 1.

I know they use it as a negative, but Halo 2 stands as my favorite Halo campaign.
Halo 2 fo lyfe! HYPE!

 

[Silly.Mikey]

I get that tho. Bigger doesn't necessarily mean more fun to explore. I know Halo3 had pretty big areas and i never really enjoyed exploring them sooo..

After watching all these streams, I'm pretty confident I'll be buying the DMR before the BR.

 

[xbhaskarx]

WTF this game is on rails? Preorder cancelled.

but whatever works

 

[Demoncarnotaur]

Blackscreen in MP seems to reset your loadout back to AR and Pistol for the first respawn.

 

[kittens]

There's way too many vehicles on Ragnarok.

 

[CyReN]

You are correct, DMR takes a bit to get used to at real close fights but once you master it, it's godly. BR is a GOOD weapon though.

 

[Naked Lunch]

Not in Infinity Playlist.

What does that mean? Unranked?
Weaksauce either way.

 

[Mr. Sam]

Right, I'm in. Pre-ordered from Sainsbury's of all places.

 

[GamerSoul]

Halo 4 SportsNation is on ESPN2 now.

Haha, yep I'm watching it. The hype levels are increasing

Infinity Slayer and BTB friendly fire is turned off.

 

[Rev3rb]

I've had enough DMR, I'll be going with the BR until I either get sick of it (unlikely) or start getting destroyed by the DMR (likely)

 

[kittens]

Yeah, totally. I'll probably roll with the BR in some of the small maps just for variety sometimes.

 

[nillapuddin]

After watching all these streams, I'm pretty confident I'll be buying the DMR before the BR.

Im going to be saving my points for awhile.

I dont think it will be worth it to use your points right away, since your loadout cannot even have all the options until SR-12

I dont think I will even attempt a full customized loadout until SR-20
The options provided with the game seem good enough for me, and it doesnt look like it will take very long really

*IDC if DMR is beast, Ive been staring at that shit for 2 years, avoiding it like the plague

Spoiler

at first

Roche won? FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU.
Ah well, have a great time sir!
