zero hope for halo 5
okay, maybe a sliver
"We went back and looked at Halo 4... and we saw that yes, we had made some mistakes. So what we did is list all the things that could be better - and we do listen to the feedback - and improved on them in a way that works for both ultra competitive and casual players.
Introducing Infinity Slayer 2.0: We realised that more often than not, people didn't have the opportunity to experience various parts of the sandbox. More experienced players would know where the Banshee spawns, they'd know where the Gauss Hog spawns... and in turn a lot of people missed out. So to counteract this, we're now adding vehicles to your killsteaks! It works for both casual players - because they can experience the full sandbox, finally - and ultra competitive players - because only the best will be able to get 5 kills!"

The gunplay and metagame in Halo 1 is still unmatched.

Next Halo 5 trailer better have classic Halo music.
They get a pass on Halo 4, the next game gets no benefit of the doubt anymore.

No kidding. I can't believe they got that many rockets through QA.

DLC perks, someone hold me.

e) it was feasible for them to add more perks, they are relatively simple to develop, add variation to the DLC bundle, and are valuable to the current player base.
In the same way The Pit is a selling point to core Halo fans, the ejection perk is a selling point to the 1/3 population that plays big team battle
Also, I just realized that 1/3 of the population plays Big Team Battle.
343 just needs to scrap every competitive playlist bigger than 4v4 and replace it with Battlefield, Halo edition.
Then add playlists of 2-8 player game modes on small arena maps with ranks
Space Jesus only means more
Hasn't the change to reduce its clip already gone into effect?
1. Can someone confirm this? And have they said when they're adding BR starts to it?
2. That doesn't change the fact that it made it through in the first place. I hear adrift has lasers on it too.
In the same update that mentioned the reduction of rockets they said they're changing the lasers to snipers.
That doesn't change the fact that lasers were there in the first place.

If Halo gets a porn parody, will it get outsourced to Squirtin' Affinity?

Judging by their posting activity stunned by our sheer intelligence of Halo.
Probably knee deep in Halo 5 (One) development... Probably scroll by to see what we're upset about or talking about but won't write anything.
The same like we feel playing Halo 4
FTFY.

Fun Fact of the day: If you possess a Chief biped that is animated in a cutscene at the start of a level using bump possession and console commands, you will be controlling him when the cutscene ends. However, you can't move, only jump. The reason for this, is yet to be determined
Those gamer fury tweets at the CoD devs are fucking ridiculous... It's one thing to be passionate about the game, to express disappointment or even anger, but those tweets are too much. Nothing but vitriol, harassment, abuse and death threats not only against devs but their family, and for what? I don't even want to call myself a gamer anymore because I just don't want to associate with these kinds of people. They should really contact the FBI or Law Enforcement, track down the people through IP addresses, contact them or their ISP and send them official warnings at first that violent death threats are against state or federal laws, really scare the shit out of these, and I'm assuming, kids or maybe show the parents just what their kids are using social media for.
Yeah. There is a line and they crossed it. There isn't even an ounce of humour or sarcasm in those tweets - only bald anger and stupidity.

That is one thing Im really thankful for about the Halo community is no one (well, that I've seen) have ever used death threats or harsh insults towards developers. I think I remember one towards BS angel that was really racist a few weeks after Halo 4 came out but that is it really. I don't understand how anyone could ever be that angry over a video game, or honestly, in general. But that is just how people can be sometimes.
Also one thing I like about Halo community on YouTube is they dont use their fanbase to attack others. I tweeted to some popular CoD Youtuber saying he shouldn't be doing something (I honestly forgot what it was), then he tweets out telling his 15,000 followers to dislike and spam my YouTube videos. You would NEVER see that with any popular to semi-popular Halo YouTuber.

Isn't that something of your expertise?

I would check haven but my box is in another room and not played since friday night.
Adrift replaced the sniper corners with spartan lasers which IMO like replacing a Scorpion tank with a shitty halo reach Wraith.

Bravo said in the last bulletin that the Rockets would be adjusted on Haven and the Snipers would replace the lasers on Adrift. The fact that this had to be changed in the first place is all I need to keep me away from Halo 4. It's like they're throwing shit against a wall to see what sticks, but the Halo fans are the ones against the wall. No thanks.
I wonder how many man hours they have dedicated to the sustain team. I always get the feeling they devote more time to announcing upcoming changes than actually implementing them.

Compared to actual game development for the next title(s) it is a far smaller percentage than you'd think. It's like technical support for IT, it's not a profit making part of the business but a necessary service.
Considering the population you really can't knock 343i for their relentless sustain of Halo 4. I think they should be proud of that fact and Halo fans should take that as a tick in the win box somewhat.
