I usually don't enjoy the campaigns very much, but I had a blast in this one!
It felt a bit stale the first few missions, than really picked up!
Story was great! I love how it embraced the Halo lore instead of just sticking with the covenant/human struggle.
Bright future is ahead!

As an aside, the first time "Insert Cortana" appeared on screen, I totally misread it. Granted, it was right after a cinematic lingered on her rear for a bit.
Crawlers are the only thing in the game that presents a challenge
Knights are just bullet sponge statues
Watchers are just irritating and are usually out of the way very quickly
While all these things would make you think that they were expanding the battleground dynamics, I believe it actually sharply narrowed them.
I really did not have one interesting engagement the entire game.

Anyone got their codes from Amazon yet for the special skin thing or whatever?

I liked the first couple levels a lot, though the first one was pretty barebones. Prometheans are fine, just feel kinda repetitive so far. Knights feel a bit damage-spongey, or else I haven't figured out how to hurt them quicker yet. Watchers are the ultimate trolls. The Boltshot feels kind of clumsy, but the Light Rifle is cool.
Anyone else think it's funny how humans, Covenant, and Prometheans all store their weapons in convenient upright racks?

Amazon Italy hasn't even shipped mine yet. I currently have all the items except those 3 and the 3 console bundle ones.
CLASSIC
Too much work to do and too much of a desire to watch CNN all night. Being an adult sucks. I'm never going to play halo at this rate
I beat the first three levels last night. I went to be not looking forward to playing the rest. I think the campaign is pretty boring. The PKs are just elites with arbitrary health and shields. How do I know if I'm even hitting them? Ammo gets used up too quickly. Not enough grenades. Vehicles suck. Hopefully when I get into MM later this week I'll feel better about this game.

Working on gametypes now. If you guys could vote, it would mean a lot. <3

Is matchmaking still hosed? Trying to figure out if me and the boys should bother dragging all our stuff into my house to hop online for the night. Need to let them know ASAP.
What's the word? Heard it was spotty all afternoon.

Remember that time we played a game earlier today? Oh wait. It didn't let us party up. lollllllllllllll
Dunno. I wasn't getting them while the Waypoint servers were down, but now I am getting them.
Still seems to be working, got 2 chapters of SpOps in with no problems.
Thank you.
EDIT: I don't understand why the server problems are affecting Spartan Ops. I'm playing alone and can't access the missions.

So this is pretty easy.

Because theres a pretty big Amazon hub in Breinigsville on Boulder Drive.
They still haven't fixed that? That was in Reach. Direct comments to Hirednoobs the local community Trueskill expert.
You're going to have to wait a bit for everyone to get a rating, like all TrueSkill ratings.

Did you get a code for the Wargames Map-Pass? They are part of it. Redeem the code and voila you have your two helmets.

2557, and we still have static in voice comms.
Star Trek did the same thing. Radio static is just too essential a storytelling mechanic in popular culture.

Heroic Solo done.
Doesn't reach the highs of Halo 3 I think because of the worse feedback loop, but doesn't have any of the lows either. Hits a very consistent, pretty damn entertaining note at the third level and basically stays there the whole game. Love the huge playspaces that actually use your increased mobility options.

Impressions at this point
Campaign: Very good so far. Not quite Halo 3, but pretty dang close. I love fighting the Prometheans.
Multiplayer: Fun, but has some issues. Promethean Vision is really overpowered, as is the Mantis, Binary Rifle, and Jetpack. Way too many power weapons, every match feels like Heavies. Complex is garbage. Regicide is alright. Flood is literally just reskinned infection.

I can't even launch Waypoint from the main menu. I get a black screen I hear a 360 notification blip, but I can't do anything from there. Crashes my 360.

How do I save films in Halo 4?
You should be able to hit start and find them in the File Browser (next to the Network option) and save them with the Y button menu. If not there, then you can go into the theater, hit Select Film, click the right stick, select Recent Films, hit Y, and save them.
That is a mouthful.
