Halo |OT18| We're Back Baby!
- Thread starter Mix
- Start date
The anonymous nobody/emblem thing in Halo 2 worked really well. But after that they went to armor, which is fine but there's always room for both. Keeping both behind unlocks is awful either way. Seeing how enthusiastic they were over something like 1-flag on Zanzibar is still great to see even nine years later. Something new to the series and they were getting creative with the maps. Meanwhile, nowadays they pimp out going invisible with a sniper rifle or EMP'ing an enemy vehicle.
DEAFHAWK YYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's obvious they simply ran out of time on 4. We can only hope it was because the studio was working more on 5.

This is what worries me about Halo 5. They had 3 years to make Halo 4 and they released a game with tons of cut content, less gametypes than previous Halo games, less features, and more things that didn't work correctly than any Bungie Halo game. How are they going to release a quality Halo game with only 2 years of dev time?
Use a bunch of Halo 4 assets.
CBS might be airing the Halo series?
Spielberg already has 'Under The Dome' over there and Xbox Entertainment Head use to run CBS to.
Hopefully it's on CBS, a digital only exclusive Xbox series would be very limiting.

I would have thought that part of the whole point is that it would available only on Xbox.CBS might be airing the Halo series?

But perhaps they want to use it to advertise Halo?

Yeah, it isn't coming this fall. Those sections are usually work in progress, see for example Intelligence is listed for 2014.
My guess it will initially be exclusive to Xbox for a week or two and than CBS airs it.I would have thought that part of the whole point is that it would available only on Xbox.

Usually the people who edit the tv sections of wiki are pretty good and spot on (See Showtime, USA network, FX. HBO).
They can still appeal to them. 343 can still have infinity or whatever. They already have 60fps and dedis, now just bolster the custom game options suite and have a "classic" Halo playlist with in game ranks.
Cake and eat it too.

Yep, that's possible. The Mantis is the only vehicle that is still pilotable when attached to another object.

Dude that's comedy. They'll take about Soaps, Roaches, and Dogs.
Wait WTF.
Funny seeing more classic helmets.
Where do you see classic helmets. I see one recon helmet, which is the Halo 4 recon variant, and then everyone else has the default spartan helmet, which I forgot the name of it.
I mean more clear visors, instead of stuff like Wetwork, Pioneer, Engineer and that stuff.

I wonder how intentional it was to give the appearance of lighted nipples to the female Spartan.

Packing for a camping trip and watching Halo 4 Forward Unto Dawn on Netflix.. it holds up pretty well. Was the color correction tweaked again? It looks better than I remember.
True or not, I know they discussed the possibility of distributing it on TV.
Cool cover, but I wish Palmer had hair that makese sense for a Spartan. I also wish she wasn't annoying.
Eww lol. I think the main issue is the helmet isn't as angular as it should be and is more rounded.

Anyone here picking a next gen console at launch?
Edit: Which console?

ODST's are not really wearing armor in the older games. They looked more like protection suits.
Yessir.

I agree, just beef up the customization so that the community can fix whatever could go wrong with the future halo title. That's a big downer for halo 4 and luckily we have some modders that have been able to bring things back for us but hopefully we'll see all of that right out of the gate and available for everyone next game
so long as they learned that lesson from halo 4 :-(Enter The 36 Chambers

Im gonna stick 360 till next year and just play GTA and Ulta Street Fighter. If Halo looks good I'll pick a Xbox up, otherwise its Playstation for me.

Pre ordered Xbox One and cant fucking wait. I think it is a awesome console with good games. I actually use my kincet when I have people over we play kinect sports so I am happy about kinect V2
PS4 at launch for me and depending if the next Halo and exclusives are good I will pick up a One though it will probably not be my primary console.
Happy Microsoft has reversed their idiotic policies but we will have to wait and see if they actually stick. Also the PS4 is sexy.

True, but at least the Halo 3 ODST helmet looked like an ODST helmet:

I don't understand why so many Halo 4 MP armor permutations have that weird rounding going on. It lost its identity from the side. Also, it has the weird Noble Six helmet smiley face on the top for no reason. I wish it looked more like this:
But, ya know.. its 343, so they changed it, rounded it and added smiley faces for the hell of it. That said, it looks decent in this picture:

Been playing Halo 3 having a lot of fun. One thing I have noticed is that even if you team gets 15 kills behind you can catch up very quickly. Also every game is very close with in a kill or 2 witch can make your heart pump I love it.
You just dont get those 49 49 standoffs in Halo 4. Plus playing for a real in game rank is so good.

Maybe it's an homage to the Halo 2 version.
Battlefield 4, Warframe and Planetside 2, thats all I will need for awhile anyways and 2 of them are free! lol
Will pickup Killzone and Knack though too.

That still looks like an ODST. It really feels like 343 rounded all the edges and added some Noble Six helmet designs for no reason.
Overall the armor looks pretty good, but the helmet seems off. I love that they added the backpack thingy to it.

Definitely getting a console in the launch window for BF4.
