This. If everyone got a 15-20 seconds heads-up beforehand, a battle for the position could ensue (similar to invasion slayer in reach) and the better team would get the weapon.
This would work really well, I think.
Dat objective. Looks good, but the seeing a guy using rockets get killed by another rocket wielder made me sad.
This is gonna be dominion, pt II: great idea, but so many power weapons that it's basically heavies all the time.

I think there is an option to put subtitles on, I am pretty sure I have seen it?

Correct! You've earned that no flinching. Go for it, buddy.
Will it take the place of dexterity though?

Just do it solo. You get Mantises and fuck everything up with nary a shot hitting you.

Kinda sounds like you got into a modded Halo 2 match. :lol
Now that's just sad.

Don't know why they took out quit penalties. You should at least lose 3 games worth of xp poimt

Excuse my saltyness, but why the hell is SpOps not downloadable? "Must Require Gold Membership to play Spartan Ops" ... I felt shitty after apologizing to a friend who used their Gold expecting to download it but to find out that it cannot be played offline.
"We'll cut that out, make a note"
Perfect analogy for Halo 4, except there was no note.

Well this is awkward.
The Halo 4 Gaming Side OT is now in Community.
Press Y to Dual Wield Community threads.
It is. You can install it to your HDD (that's what Disc 2 does), but you can't play it without a Gold membership.
I don't think a single person actually agrees with that move.

Beautiful.
This isn't even a joke. Even the Torso and Shoulders are S-Tier.
Just enlisted in it now.

What did anyone else expect when they kept Halo 1 mode behind a paywall in Reach?

Well the Halo CE gametype wasn't on the Reach disc, this is.

It was patched into everyone's copies as of the TU, then sat on until Anniversary actually came out.
It was then never combined with Blood Gulch in matchmaking, and I can't see any other reason why beyond "because then people could play it in MM for free". You have a game entirely based around glorifying Halo 1 yet you can't play the map everyone remembers from Halo 1 in matchmaking under Halo 1 mode even though all the pieces are there to do it.
This would be like them patching a Halo 3 mode into 4 then never having Ragnarok playable with the Halo 3 gametype in matchmaking.
In short, Microsoft did a paywall before, they're doing it again, nothing is new.
edit: And they overtly did it in Wars by patching gametypes into the game then making people pay 10$ for just the gametypes.
Halo 4 just adds more salt because the gametype was displayed on the disc beforehand.

I'm not saying what they did before wasn't bad, this is a gametype that was on the disc and accessible from day one, and now it's introduction into matchmaking is paywalled. Much worse IMO.

My guess: 343 was in charge of 10 maps, Certain Affinity 9 (not including forge maps). Problem is, some of CA's turned out to be better than 343's in-house ones, so they scrambled everything up, resulting in the 10 shipped maps we have now being a mix, and some of 343's already-made ones were on the disc but got moved to DLC.

Wait, the Halo 4 OT and Halo OT13 are both on the community side now? How long is that gonna last?
I busted out laughing, really good one.
It is, but all anyone can do to send a message is not buy the maps until Extraction becomes DLC-optional. They're not going to actually listen, see also: the response to everyone's requests to get Squad Slayer back.

And with this I paid to play only the Campaign.
While disc 2 is also free via XBL.
So Fucking Shady.
Again, excuse my salty mood. :/

Anyone know how I can get a high res or decent size image of my Halo 4 emblem? I've been trying to find one on waypoint but it's either obstructed when at a good size or tiny.

Don't really have much interest in the maps, but I'm very interested in Extraction.

It's only going to be in the DLC playlist for now, but you can still play it in customs on any map (it's already on your disc)

It's on the disc and you can play it in customs right now. It'll only be available if you buy the map pack in matchmaking.
That looks pretty damn fun. And Wreckage looks like Burial Mounds
So glad it looks like instant respawn isn't in Extraction. Was almost expecting it to

Wu posted that the Extraction and the new maps will be available to the general public tomorrow. Is that a typo? I thought it was out on the 11th.
I believe the maps/playlists come out on the 10th.

Looks great. Extraction has the potential to make decent maps a lot better by focusing capture/defend combat throughout the map.
Lag Motion Cannon.
tl;dr: Guy fires a scorpion, the shell hits a teammate and detonates, two enemies half the map away on top of a base get killed by invisible force that appears to be the scorpion shell.
I'm going to science something. Update in a second.

I think I know exactly what you're sciencing based on that vid, and I will laugh my ass off if it tests true.

Haven't played since the 13th.
It's not true, unless you're using a sniper rifle. It won't show the bullet hitting your teammate, but it will show it hitting the enemy. Otherwise everything appears to work as intended.
Bullet only hit his teammates on his box, the host saw it miss them and continued the simulation. The tank's client didn't catch up until the host notified his box that those players were dead.
If you were to pull everyone's films from the game, quite a few of them would have shown the shell making the full travel.
Same reason in previous games where you'd throw a grenade past someone then it suddenly reverses direction and sticks them.
