Check out the kill cams. Auto aim is still rampant as hell.

Having a hard time telling which weapon is which for ordinance drops. A lot of the weapons look too similar. End up just always picking the SAW. :|

...what? What size TV/monitor are you using, and from how far away? None of the icons look remotely similar.

Is the DMR getting nerfed?!
Its my favourite weapon by far and in the games im playing most people seem to favour the BR so it can't be THAT much better than the other rifles.

If DMR does get nerfed then I'll switch to Carbine.

I have a code for Circuit Armor and a code for Pulse Armor that I'd like to trade for other preorder codes (hoping that everyone hasn't already traded away their codes by now). PM me.

40 inch TV. optimal viewing distance. i just started playing mp so yes many of the icons are unrecognizable to me and wish there were text. yes i should probably go look at some online manual.

Just received my LE of the game from amazon UK... where are the codes for half the content supposed to be? The steel book only had the discs.

edit: watched an unboxing video, they're just not there on mine. Feels great to be fucked in the ass early in the morning.

Even with the "killstreaks" they added, the MP feels nothing at all like COD. Just got off a four hour session with some friends , and they were comparing it to H2 mp. I didn't get to play H2 multi but i played a lot of 3. So for me it plays like a faster H3 with killstreaks. Also i'm not sure if the auto aim is gone or just really toned down compared to the last two games, but its a hell of a lot easier for me to line up a head shot now that my gun isn't following another enemy that happens to be nearby.

I enjoyed the campaign , it was gorgeous to look at with some great sci fi set pieces, i didn't care much for the final level though , but i really liked the ending. Very solid Halo campaign IMO.
Single player wise

The system is like CoD. Gameplay obviously isn't but I don't want killstreaks/care packages, sprinting, loadouts, and experience/prestige/lack of true-skill system to be in every game. It's good they have team slayer pro which negates most of my complaints but I'd rather that be the standard style across the rest of the gametypes.

Besides the energy drain and regen I thought H3 was the best MP experience of the series.

Just completed the campaign, it was okay. I have only played Halo 1 and 2, so I'm not really a fan, I did find it alright but nothing really stood out to me apart from graphics. I did find grenades disappointing and I wish vehicles had a little more weight to them but overall not many complaints. Not many praises either though lol.

When keepin it real goes wrong. Very, very wrong.
Whats the deal with the final kill cam ? My first few matches had it and i have not seen it since..

Its a real pain when i get an awesome last kill and no one gets to see it..

Can you do like you did in the other ones and play just the last checkpoint for the final mission on Legendary to see the Legendary ending?

I get antsy until I see the Legendary ending so I wanna get it out of the way asap.

Just went 18-0 on big team Ragnarok. The power of the SAW. No perfection medal though, lame.
Click to expand...

saw is the most satisfying weapon in the game. SUCH a big clip. It's also an oh shit moment if that starts firing at you.

also, beat the campaign was great little bit
disappointed with no real showdown with the bad dude though

one thing, anyone looked at the achievements? How the hell do you trick the hunters to fall off in level 6. god damn I tried about 20 times, wasn't even close.

Also incinerator rocket is so great.

Pretty much what I did. Still waiting for a meaningful answer beyond "here are your preorder codes"/"see with MS"/"return it and we'll refund you".

I also called MS who basically told me to go fuck myself.

I hadn't quite pictured the day I received the game spending so much time on the phone/email.

Plasma Pistol plus rifle to the head. Obviously keep your distance.

Emperor Bohe said:
what do you guys think of the plasma pistol in this game? is the noob combo still viable?
Click to expand...

It's doesn't have as much magnetism as in previous games, plus the kill times are shorter so you're unlikely to be able to fire off a PP round, change weapon and get the headshot in before you're dead (assuming they've seen you).

I can almost taste the disappointment when someone throws a grenade at me thinking it was something other than a Pulse.

So useless.

Big team infinity slayer in this game, feels so good! I always preferred the larger player game types in halo and they nailed it well here. Reach had problems with big team at times so it scared me away but I can see myself playing it forever in halo 4.

Not liking the MP in this. Doing precision aiming (which is needed for DMR and BR) with dual analog is just a constant struggle. Guess I'm spoiled by CS:GO and Quake Live on PC.

Plus I don't like having the option of spawning with DMR or BR all the time. I liked the flow of having to look for weapons in previous games.

The problem isn't being able to spawn with the rifles, but it's that the flow of looking for power weapons is now gone. Past the initial non-random weapon spawns, everything is up to chance and luck of just being by the rocket launcher spawn
