Bubububub I thought that it was the DMR that was overpowered.

It's a primary weapon...
Better known as a Ninja.
In what I've played, DRM is definitely preferable to BR.

Any word on NYC retailer going early? Vgny says Monday.
That kinda seems like a fuckup if the BR isn't superior at shorter distances, otherwise why use it?
Been listening to the deluxe OST and I gotta say, as good and memorable as Marty's work has been this is pretty awesome stuff too. I can't wait to see how it's going to be used in the campaign.
Although I'm still not sure if there's a theme in there that Neil is going to use throughout the trilogy (maybe Awakening?).

I was hearing the To Galaxy motif a lot during FUD. I can't remember what it was specifically, but I seem to remember a couple of themes repeating across songs.
Overall, despite my first impressions, it's a great soundtrack and succeeds in being its own take on Halo in the same way that Halo 4 itself seems to.
There are essentially four weapons filling the same purpose (BR, DMR, carbine, light rifle). I'm sure they each have their pros and cons, but most people seem to prefer DMR over BR right now. Then again, BR and DMR are available earlier on, so it's hard to say what people will tend towards once they've unlocked everything (light rifle is the last to unlock out of the four).
For me, the DMR seemed more reliable, since I only had to ensure that 1 bullet hit rather than the entire spread of BR shots.
For those doing last minute pre-orders:
I just did mine with the Microsoft Store to get the $25 credit towards my next purchase, which I wanted to put towards Black Ops 2. The confirmation states that I should get the code by Nov. 9th, which is in time to do the pre-order. That means Halo 4 and Pulse Skin for $60, Blops 2 for $35 + 1600 MS points.
Mad jelly at you guys that already have the game though.

Fleas is just too far for me with the TTC. How much was the LE and the regular?

This seems like a great deal, especially if you were planning on buy Blops 2. question though: where did the 1600 MS points come from?

BR allows for more sloppy firing. DMR does not.
That's the difference.

I swear the DMR is a way sloppier weapon to aim.

BR is also more fun to shoot.
That Killionaire clip shows how Regicide changes the FFA dynamic. In previous games he never would have gotten that, it happened here because people were funneling to him because the game was pointing him out. Not saying it's for better or for worse, but an interesting observation.

Ordered the Halo 4 Xbox 360. From Amazon. I'm in a foreign base abroad. How long should I expect it? At launch? Few days afterwards? What?

Good god, that's not a bad deal. Unfortunately I already have Blops 2 pre ordered at Gamestop...does anyone know their policies if I were to cancel? I am assuming I wont be able to get all the money back...

Did it not give you an estimated delivery date?
the space forge map, relay, looks great IMO. but it wont be in matchmaking? does it come with the game for customs only (currently)?
the dmr looks a bit too dominant on that map though, looks like that is a map that would be better off with BRs only

And the Carbine is acceptable at both long and middle!
Right...?
It is, but I prefer UNSC weapons.
anyone with the game can you tell me if the runes emblem is useable from the start.. or unlockable...
anyone with kind heart please answer this for me...
unlockable

The thing I don't like about regicide is that the guy who wins the game doesn't have to be the player with the most kills. When I played it at an event, I barely won the game with 25 kills and 10 deaths while the number 2 player didn't even went positive.
Sweet! I asked about this one and the coffee cup one a page or two back, do you happen to know if the coffee cup emblem is in there as well?

Played 2 hrs of the multiplayer. At first I was concerned with the announcement of the additions of ordinance drops, load outs etc. (like everyond else) almost sounded to much like COD. After my first game, I was absolutely sold on halo 4 multiplayer. I can see myself playing this for years to come, unlike Reach. Sorry BLOPS 2.

No, it's not. MLG set up custom ordnance drops for their event, apparently storm rifle and plasma pistol, etc. are included in that. Storm rifle is a primary weapon that can be used in your loadouts.

lol turtle beach mic quality is awful.
While you are answering, what about my cyclone?
Dont see it just yet..
I don't care for it. It's basically a plasma version of an AR, but it feels less powerful.
BR is also more fun to shoot.

Just skipped about 25 pages of nothing. So we get skill ranks now but we can only see them via waypoint?

That EGM review did some damage:
I wouldn't mind if his main complaint wasn't "No iron sights, too many open environments and not enough explosions"
