Great news about the medals being changed. Now lets hope they look more closer to the old medals. The multikill and spree medals are so iconic for Halo IMO that they should never be changed significantly.
Next week's bulletin would be a great occasion to show off some of the new medal design.

Didn't Bungie do that in one weekly update? Show of the medals for Reach that is.
Technically you have adapted but the issue comes from that.

"23/3 without using any AA once" My immediate reply was Sprint is AA! Realized I am fail...I try
These Impressions are awesome, btw. Thanks!

It's okay to be afraid of change.
Also I'm a Nets fan now that they're in Brooklyn.
The aiming in Halo 3 was gaaaaaarbage.

Not aiming related per say, but one thing I have missed since Halo 1 is having a centered reticle.

Yeah I don't really think aim acceleration has a point in a arena/sandbox shooter, but people noticing that it's really low/they don't notice it at all is a great sign. I'd still love an option to turn it off, and still curious if people have noticed it's significant reduction on both axis's, as we have discussed the acceleration on the vertical axis is much worse than the horizontal axis in Reach making jetpacking opponents all the harder to fight.
Of my limited understanding of game engines, aim acceleration wouldn't be something that is essential to their systems.
Aiming in Halo 3 is soooo sluggish. Seriously impacts my ability to enjoy that game.
Slow turn comes from aim acceleration? That's interesting.
I can't wait to play this game man. At this point I'm just passing over impressions, videos and other stuff about the game itself. It doesn't satisfy me to read or watch these things. They do nothing for me. I just need to play it.
Very good idea. I'll probably do the same

314 might not disappoint, but 343 will.

Yep, they posted the new visuals of some old and some new medals IIRC. Those updates with little bits of new stuff were really awesome.

Yeah, that's an option toggle I'd sacrifice for.

Wow, 590k views on the Forward Unto Dawn trailer already.
Awesome, good to see Halo's getting the exposure it's certainly going to deserve after H4

Pssh, I'll make my own. I still got that sticker from Gamestop for pre-ordering.
I just can't see Bran and his brother being four years older and still working.

I gotta say, I don't think I have been this excited for a halo campaign... ever..
The fact that the games will be fully immersed in the books has got me really pumped. Then again I could be considered a newb when it comes to halo fiction. I have read fall of reach, contact harvest, cole protocole, evolutions, the flood, halo first strike, cryptum, primoridium and glasslands. I honestly loved every single book. From what i have gathered by looking at other forums most people don't like every book in the halo series, so i guess I am trying to figure out what is "wrong" with certain books.

The Halo cycle begins.
Indeed, something that has been said since Halo 2.
Wait, he got 73 kills

They will make it work. They will just give off the impression that more time passes over the course of the show than it does in the books, which honestly, I was always amazed when reading the books looking up how little time passes over the course of the books. (If I recall correctly, the beginning of the series through the fifth book is about three years.) My exception for the no one being recast is (series spoilers)
Rickon, and that is for a specific plot reason.
Also, interesting that you mention Joffrey because the actor that plays him, Jack Gleeson, is actually 20 years old. He just looks quite young.
Hasn't 343 said that all emblems from the previous Halo games would return in H4, with new ones to boot? Maybe I'm just imagining that...

Menus look slick not gunna lie. Armor looks fucking great. Orbital helmet is still my favorite so far.
Jesus fuck thank you.

More CoD assimilation?
So BSangel is super awesome and got me on the list for the Halo 4 VIP party, however at the last second I was turned away by the bouncer because I am not 21. I am not mad at the bouncer but I am pretty mad at the law that says a grown ass 20 year old can't drink.
Oh well it was still pretty awesome of her to try to get me in

Aw man, that sucks Reminds me of Gamescom, where you have to be 18 to play Halo games. I got sent away when it was my turn to enter the booth while I waited an hour in line to play ODST firefight 3 years ago.
Must have been a custom game that didn't happen on the showfloor. I can't imagine that 73 kills is normal for that gametype, even if you're a good player.

No.
Yes.
Text is the most descriptive and readable way to do game messages. Of course I'm all for options so that we can disagree and still both be satisfied.

Stupid government! Yea, it's kinda stupid how you could die for your country but you cant even get a buzz.
While I agree the HUD seems to get cluttered at times, I don't know if I can get behind this. To little information is also bad.

They carded people at a comic-con party?
It was at the Hard Rock Cafe and they don't have that "X on the hand" rule apparently :/
Lol forgive me, I am being swept up in the optimism
Trust me man, I'm as optimistic as you are. I have a tendency to ignore what I don't like about something. I always had fun in Reach with all its misgivings, so it was easy for me to love. I see some things I don't like in Halo 4 but it looks like an absolute blast to play and I'm always around for the campaign.
I can help you here.
Halo: FoR -- Nothing, it was perfect.
Halo: the Flood -- Retelling of CE.
Halo: First Strike -- Events didn't do much world building and were kind of just there. Much of the shock and awe of the Covenant as an invasion force was used up in FoR. The middle of that book dragged.
Halo: Ghosts of Onyx -- Lack of Chief and Cortana, but Halsey made up for the AI's absence. Kurt was a non-engaging character to me. I never felt like I knew him, but I could predict everything he would do. Probably just a casualty of Nylund's limited characterization prowess.
Contact Harvest -- Everything non-Covenant perspective was boring.
Cole Protocol -- Utterly forgettable book.
Evolutions -- Varies. Lows were forgettable. Highs suffered from being displaced.
Cryptum -- Forerunner were a little too human-y to me.
Primordium -- First three quarters of the book are drier than camel-knees.
Glasslands -- Eh.
The hype gets to the best of us.

Overdoziz sniped A27 Starwolf.
The latter conveys more information (which team killed who) more easily than text that's very easy to miss. Not to mention that the "sniped" bit only shows up right now if someone heads a headshot. With the weapon icon we know which person on which team killed which person with what weapon. It's great.

That's a shame, I remember those days. Now it's all "wooo drunk in public. Hi cops!"
So, pretty much everything in the Halo universe, especially the games?
Shots fired. Flame suit engage!
