I think the ability to combine camo with other AAs would really unbalance the game. Camo + Jetpack or Camo + thrusters could be really annoying.
Evolved invisibility, now with 80% MORE invisible!

Hah, of course not, this is Halo we're talking about. It's nothing like that perk or that game which we won't mention. In fact, we don't even know what game you could possibly be maybe referencing with that post.
It's a totally new Halo perk, and it's going to be called Cold Spartan Blooded.

Possibly making you invisible to Pro Vision and AutoSentry?
IMBALANCE.
Kidding, it should only make you invisible to those things if your Active Camo ability is active. That way if you get the ping that someone is using PV or you see an AS, you can activate your AC to go into sneak mode, or SM. Just be sure to equip your BR, battle rifle, and have your SP, support package, and TP, tactical package, working in perfect harmony, PH, in order to maximize effectiveness, or ME.

Because Camo is an armor ability.
My friend got it, and for the most part, it's awesome. One problem i have with the 3D features, is that when you view something in 3D that wasn't native to it, it basically doesn't work. :/
Doctor Who: The End of Time - Part II, that episode made me cry.
Tears of joy.
An AR replacement would never happen, because the AR is THE weapon along with the BR that is instantly recognized as Halo, it's mostly in the game for nostalgia, if nothing else IMO.
Reach: Long Night of Solace; Gotta love that space battle, i wanmore.jpg. I also thought fighting inside that Covenant Bridge was also awesome, looked amazing! Also had the death of my favorite Noble, Jorge.
ODST: Costal Highway; CUZ DOSE SKIBAWKZEZ MAIN!
Halo 3: The Covenant as well, because those end battles and sequences were so epic and put a
bow
Halo 2: Still have never played it D:
Halo CE/A: I got to say Halo; because stepping out onto Installation-04 for the 1st time gave me

I know people here don't like the BR sound, but i think it sounds amazing, and for those Forerunner Weapons, i seemed to be growing a 3rd leg when i heard them.
Do you want a hug?
My god, i thought you were my friend Nathan there for a second, we were just discussing this the other day.
Has anyone seen MTW, i haven't seem him post in a while.
I don't know about him....... i kid. Welcome to GAF!

Yeah, come on sltPoison, we're trying to stick with traditional Halo here.
I actually would really like to see the Overshield and Active Camo in standard matchmaking again in conjunction with the AAs.
A player using the Hardlight shield would go for the OS in order to become an even beefier tank and push harder into an objective or power position.
A player using Jet Pack could go for the Active Camo to increase the utility of his flanks and instill the fear of Batman into his enemies when all they hear is an ominous Jet Pack looming over their heads.

There must've been a lot of dust or pollen in the Bregmannsion when I was watching that, because my eyes were watering a little bit too (wait...I meant to say "Sports shows make me cry all the time" no wait...that doesn't sound right either).
MONSTER BALLS: Drop whatever you are doing and get online! We have precious little practice time left until Team Karl-lust tries to destroy us. We must stop them!

I know everyone is giving hardlight shield crap, but I can't wait to see how it works pushing in CTF with some shields up front.

Not gonna lie, that would be pretty intimidating seeing that coming
until I throw a grenade
There might be a classic playlist but things like kill times, aim magnetism, spread, etc will hinder the ability of the playlist to truly be classic.
I have seen pro players do it in tournament games. Unless there is a custom setting that allows mlg players to do it only in mlg games I believe it does work.
srry for the late replies just got off work.
Oh yeah, I forgot
:/
Can someone explain to me why having that sort of dynamic is a bad thing?
I'm guessing the primary argument is luck-based = lame

Fine sanding and spot putty application.
Rock, paper, scissors doesn't exactly have a wide skill-gap.

Here's my comparison, and it's a CoD comparison. AI kill streaks in CoD can absolutely destroy you. CoD offers you a wealth of perks to choose from, but those damn kill streaks piss me off so bad I feel forced into using Cold Blooded. I am now giving up on another perk choice simply because I have to play RPS with other players. It's just... Frustrating.

Not that I'm endorsing RPS gameplay, but I take it you really don't like class based shooters?
I'm super curious as to see what others they have in store. Hopefully armor lock returns.

Its getting Real nice. Is it similar in size to the Halo 3 Legendary Helmet or Lager more akin to a human head?
It depends on how those skills are implemented though.
If it takes actual skill to use the ability, like Shadowrun's Gust, Smoke, Teleport, AMG, Glider, etc then it's much, much better.
If it's just pressing a button and an ability pops out like Hologram or the Hardlight Shield, not only is there a significantly reduced skill gap, but the abilities tend to get stale much faster.

Did anyone else think the music in this portion of the E3 demo was cheesey?
The whole orb thing seemed out of place...
Hopefully the rest of the game better sells me on this idea, or this Cryptum has a way cooler theme song than that.
Just sounded like bad stereotypical "villain" music. I was waiting for the orb to curl it's mustache and tie up the damsel in distress on the train tracks.

Are you seriously for it?
Also you answered your own question.
It's because some of us don't want our fates determined at the loadout screen.

Actually I'm gonna sleep now. Our game is in 2 hours, 20 minutes right?
Not particularly, and it especially shouldn't have come anywhere near Halo. I absolutely hate loadouts in Halo and create-a-class makes it even worse.

But is Halo 4 a class based shooter? Not meant to be a snarky remark btw.

You and Bregmann need to bring your A-game. Franklinator and I both got less than 5 hours of sleep last night, and got up at 5am this morning to do Summer Orientation for 9 hours. Debating on taking a nap before the match.
edit: and guys, be on at 9, just to be safe.

I think 10 central. But I'll just sleep for an hour then just in case. I gotta get some kind of sleep or I'll somehow play worse than usual, lol

Sounds alot like some of the mass effect tracks to me. I actually dont mind it at all.
Could be alot worse.
No, it was awesome you awesome hater
That's what its starting to shape out to be, which i don't mind it so much as doz1z because I love TF2 and those types of games, they encourage team play, which in turns encourages communication, which translates to a more enjoyable and skillful game.
