Yeah, i agree. Such a moronic decision to not include them on the disc. It just make no sense.

I'm bummed that none of my Halo Anniversary terminals show as being unlocked on the 'Classified' part of Waypoint. I have the achievement for unlocking them all, and don't really want to go back and do it all again.
My reaction as well. We were told the Infinity was huge but I only realised how huge when that scene happened.
Even better, if you don't find them in order you only unlock random portions of the story instead of just getting them in sequence.
Insert Anniversary, play one terminal from its menu, check if it unlocked them?
If not, then start the first mission and check the terminal from the bridge, and then check if they're visible in Waypoint. These shouldn't take too much work.
If not, it is a Waypoint problem, doubt you can do anything about it.
You need to now go to classified and enter the code associated with each one. Find them online. They only unlock CR for Halo Reach anyway.

Cool. Will try these. Thanks!
Thanks for the codes, though it says I have not met the qualification to unlock, and I have to find terminal 1 first. I guess I'll try Woorloog's way to see if that will unlock them.
Did you ever enter the codes to unlock them on Waypoint? Unlike the H4 terminals you need to manually unlock them by entering the codes you see at the end in the Classified section. Here's a video with the codes you need, they'll work as long as you've found them in-game already. You also get a bunch of cR in Reach for unlocking them (not like that matters anymore, though).

Well on Normal difficulty that would be sub 6 hours.
The other Halo games were 8+ hours on normal on the first run through solo.
Oh, that was what unlocked them for Waypoint? I thought merely seeing them in-game was enough.
If that's the case, ignore what i said.
Not for me. Under 8h always, except maybe CE because i wasn't that good gamer back then.
Started experiencing more and more slowdown on big team slayer. The first couple of days were fine and then suddenly it started happening.
I started off liking Halo 4's multi but that's really fallen off. I hate to say "needs more COD" but there are certain things that COD does that I wish Halo 4 did.

Yet with all that, Halo 4 still doesn't have more big team maps than any of the older games!

Am I alone thinking that none of this makes any sense...?
I wish Halo was simple again. Halo has gone the way of Metal Gear ever since Halo 2.
I was reading the little information pamphlet that comes with the limited edition. Apparently the Infinity is about 3 and a half miles long.
No, it's on the disc. I'm assuming the first 5 episodes are on the disc, since in the initial 1000 points available for the game there's an achievements relating to the first 5, but I don't think we know that for sure.
Nope, included in install, apparently.

is there a ninja helmet like in halo 3?

This poster pulses with an appeal so broad the typical restraints of our societies fall by the wayside.
Everyone can unlock that armor eventually only the skin was exclusive, which is the case for all of the pre-order bonuses.
played ch1 of Spartan Ops Ep2, more of the same? yup. I hope they consider doing some exciting thing with these, like some good set piece battles like two scarabs etc, right now it's more of a grind to kill everyone with infinite respawns. yawn
awesome cinematic, Is there any where I can download these videos to PC?

The other night I played this while coming up on shrooms and man did Abandon look fucking beautiful.
You probably need like 1000 assassinations for it though.
Halo Waypoint on the internet. I'd check where specifically but I hate loading that site since it takes a minute or two.

I like Firepower (two primaries) more than Mobility, as it prevents me from needing a separate class for an AR. I find that that you have enough sprint by default to not really need Mobility although it's good for certain playlists. I sort of like the fact that none of the "perks" really feel like must-haves. Dexterity is definitely a top-tier one, though, especially for us compulsive reloaders.

I'm using Dexterity and Shielding - the Shielding helps out in protracted firefights along with the faster reloading.

Other than the proper waypoint stats page, your overview page also lists it

Agreed.
Boltshot is great. Rail gun is fun. Sticky Detonator is joy.
Is there a full medals gallery so I can see all the medals that are even possible?
The DMR is overall the best weapon. The Lightrifle, once you get the hang of it, has incredible versatility, good for bigger maps (in those, it maybe even better than the DMR at range due to zoomed 4 shot kill). Slow ROF requires you to get the first shot though if unzoomed.
The Carbine is pointless crap. The BR is okay in short range but the DMR is just as good there, with the added bonus of being better at longer range.
The Suppressor is a beast up-close. Requires knowing maps and knowing where to use it though. The same with the Storm Rifle (incredibly powerful but again, requires close range) and the AR.
Ultimately automatics are not very good primary weapons though, they're ok with Firepower perk as secondaries.
The Boltshot is a shotgun if charged, ideal secondary for smaller maps, the Plasma Pistol is the Plasma Pistol, EMP for vehicle maps is a must.
So, the new weapons definetly ain't shit but they're tricky.
EDIT this is assumin you're speaking of loadout weapons.
In the Theater menu, you have to select Temporary History or whatever by clicking the stick in when you're trying to select a film. It works just like before, saving a bunch of them, but you have to dig into the menu to do it for some reason.
Their UI needs a bit of work.
