Just finished fall of reach. Should I read first strike or skip to ghosts? Was also thinking of going right to the reclaimer trilogy.
I made a halloween comic. It has a halo community reference.
Actually really agree with the bolded. Then I wrote a long post not many will read...
I honestly think they should have straight up copied Call of Duty in one aspect (and one aspect only). COD makes minor graphical updates and changes very little in the way of core gameplay year to year. They basically make small iterative changes to a game everyone has know, essentially, since MW2 hit the market. On top of that they release a game every single year. In a yearly development/release cycle two things become de facto. 1) You don't have a long time to implement massive changes. 2) All of the smaller changes are more readily accepted by your fanbase because they are all used to your pace and the rate at which the game has progressed to date.
In Halo, with a 3 (or more) year development cycle those two things that have made COD so successful are now working against you. With a longer development time you now have the potential to throw a lot of changes into your title. At the same time the core of your fanbase, the kids/pros/adults/etc., that are still playing your game a full three years after launch have now grown accustomed to a specific iteration of Halo. When you introduce a new game mechanic (especially some of the changes that are so obviously borrowing from other titles) it becomes jarring, abrupt, and shreds a small (or large) part of your most die hard fans. This becomes a downward spiral as you continue to chase larger and larger sales (with larger budgets, more bells and whistles, and more new features copped from other titles) while consistently leaving your core fanatics farther and farther from the Halo they want.
Halo 4 is an excellent compromise between delivering an authentic Halo experience while simultaneously chasing broader markets. Halo 4 may very well be the most approachable Halo game to date.
The only area I feel they dropped the ball was in restricting options in certain gametypes. There's no reason the flag could not be set to droppable (among other options) in customs.
approachable in what sense? i just think that people start losing sight that halo is actually one of the more casual fps experiences you can have as well as being one of the highest selling FPSes ever. halo IS the broad market, but not exclusively so.Halo 4 is an excellent compromise between delivering an authentic Halo experience while simultaneously chasing broader markets.

dawww, so cute! hahah
So has 343 talked about the Falcon yet and why it's not in MP? Watching that [URL="http://www.ign.com/wikis/halo-4/Vortex"]IGN Vortex Walkthrough[/URL] and the other BTB maps makes the Falcon's removal all the more disappointing [i]and[/i] puzzling.

1. There are still playlists for that arean style play, so little to argue about here in my opinion.
2. That roll the dice mechanic actually still exists in the arena version too. Once the spawns are picked up and the first battles are out of the way your next encounter is very much chance and team communication about who, where, what etc. To me all loadouts do is speed this process up, to me it's evolutionary rather than revolutionary here and helps remove having to run, time or camp around fixed weapon spawns that can be farmed even.
3. I disagree, Reach was evolutionary. Look at the facts; very similar vehicles, weapons, strafe, jump, teamwork, map flows, choke points, power weapons not in loadouts, gametypes, playlists etc etc. In the end you may think arena vs. progression is vastly different but when you look at the evolution from CE, 2, 3 & Reach you can clearly see it as an iterative process and not a complete revolution.

I just logged into xbox.com for this. You and toddler. APPRECIATE MEEEEEEEEedt: Homeboyd, accept my friend request ya jerk
That first point is wrong. There is no small maps in Halo. So there is no arena like barebones playlist. There is 4v4 or 5v5 on maps that are too big. Congrats welcome to Halo 4.
Hopefully we get at least 4 small maps from out of the 9 dlc maps.That first point is wrong. There is no small maps in Halo. So there is no arena like barebones playlist. There is 4v4 or 5v5 on maps that are too big. Congrats welcome to Halo 4.
You can't have small maps when sprint is default. Haven is considered a small map for sprint.
Waypoint is going off, understandably. Lack of visible ranks is a shame.
