That probably has to do with the FOV + insane auto aim opposed to the resolution. Halo 2 had a horrible fov

So, there are what, 132K players online atm?
Is that considered low? I mean, I know Halo 3 had like 300K near its end.
Dont COD numbers do 1 million? Or is everyone playing the story?

As i said, i can add you (or otherway around, GT is Empyrus) but co-op is practically out of question due to latency... Though this might be worth testing.
I would guess it's the completely broken online infrastructure that's turning people away.
Game is great so far. Overall the weapon changes are better, but some of them are side steps. Kinda miss the iconic shotgun feel...don't see why they used orange trim on the SAW and railgun when all the forerunner guns have a similar look. The storm rifle is a step back from the needle rifle or pulse rifle (whatever the main plasma rifle from reach was). The concussion rifle still looks dumb, but it is quite useful. A lot the guns are improved though so I'm still plenty happy with the arsenal.
Banshee flies really weird now. Banshee enemies in campaign have shit pathfinding...running into walls and such.

They probably know exactly whats going on and most likely won't do anything about it.
Better to have a crappy day or two at first when everyone is playing than have the capacity for it that will only be needed for a few hours.

Preference.
That number is low (launch week you see over a million on CoD), but it's hard to tell how much of that is online being fucked right now, combined with probably a significant more number of people care about and play through the Halo campaign immediately as opposed to CoD. I will echo the comments from people about there being way fewer people at the midnight launch at my store than there was for Halo 3/Reach or the last couple of CoD's.

Anyone else feel like none of the new UNSC stuff fit in with the other stuff? Even the colours of them didn't match.

It's part of the Infinity Kit.

Wow, this game must really be pushing the disc limit. Some of the sound compression is atrocious.
Really enjoying the game so far though!

You are posting bullshots. 1080p, no aliasing. This is not representative of video quality.
Finally scifistic UNSC stuff. The Mantis does not quite fit in but otherwise i really like the UNSC changes.
As for the colors, you're kinda right here. I would have recolored AR, DMR, Shotty and Sniper to have gray-orange scheme as well.
Yep. Some of the cutscenes lose their oomph. And some of you are nuts, the new Warthog sounds mean!

It doesnt rev up. It's just errrrrrrrrrrrrrr all the time. Meh. What's killing the Warthog for me though is the lack of weight.

could someone tell me how the local splitscreen online is handled?
What playlists can locals play in? are there limits number wise (like reach)?

Set Xbox locale to Other or UK. I think the Dashboard languge should be English as well though, it overrides location. Maybe. Not sure.
EDIT do note that setting locale to something else than your country messes up wireless connection. Apparently.
Its xbox live and the Halo servers, you can still play but i can't join any friends or anyone else.

It is actually crystal clear. The first code on the card clearly states "Specialazations Skins, Emplem, Map PK. " Not sure how much clearer they could have made it. But that is where it is listed and is part of the same code.
It's the ridiculous pitch and volume. Unbearable.
All of the launch playlists support 4 player splitscreen.

Sorry if this has been asked a million times. I can install the Campaign Disk like you would any other game and the second disc is installed by running it, right?
You got it!

Damn, so Halo wont be outselling COD on Xbox? I wonder how many will crossover to Blops 2.

Thanks guys. I'm sure it's been brought up before, I just wanted to make sure I got it straight. That's what it sounded like in the OP.

Really disappointed that they've taken Juggernaut out. It was the go-to gametype amongst my circle of friends, we'd make the Juggernaut ridiculously overpowered and all run around with Rocket Launchers and Gravity Hammers. It was awesome 
I tried messing around with the options in Regicide to try and recreate it, but it doesn't look like it's do-able. C'mon 343, how hard would it have been to put in the game?

Is there a logic behind how long you can run fast? Am I missing a stamina bar somewhere? I run and then stop. For some reason I thought run was going to be unlimited.
There's a perk that gives you unlimited sprint. Don't know for sure about logic, but I think there's a hidden stamina bar.

Got to play this today at someone's house and I really loved it. Perfect blend of traditional Halo with some nice Metroid Prime-ish atmosphere. I liked it enough to consider getting a new 360 in the next couple of months or maybe even sooner. It looks and plays like a dream and I was instantly sucked back into the multiplayer.
Good job 343.
