Where exactly?
I wonder where "Spartan points" all fit into this.

That's what I got out of it. Once you specialize, you enter a ~10 level loop for subsequent specializations.

So each specialization is like prestige or mini-prestige, where you unlock specific stuff like you mention for each specialization? Do you think we'll be able to go through all of them in turn once we reach the end of a specific specialization?
Buying weapons and abilities I think.
I overthought that it a bit too much

Would everyone like a Gif of the new footage from the Making of Video? It's gonna take a while to make, but I'm up for it

My assumption was that you only choose one specialization instead of being able to go through all of them.
It's basically a voluntary extra 10 levels to progress through with its own rewards separate from the awards you're given during your original rank progression.
edit: Speaking of, I REALLY hope the humpday matches are uploaded somewhere. I'm hoping Waypoint was able to capture footage.

..or maybe even to go as far back as to use Halo 1 as the Beta with PV and glass walls.. It doesn't work at ALL (in its current form) :]
Halo 1 Oddball would like to have a word with you (you could literally like throw the OB lol)
Yeah, but then again everything in Halo 1 weighed like 2 pounds. Dem springy-sphere based physics.
Also, went to download Noble again. Suggestion to Microsoft: you might sell more map packs if they were at the top of the "Extras" tab instead of avatar shirts and pants..
I hope this is the case. Or at least being able to hold only one specialization at each time. It would make sense to grow tired of one thing, or perhaps regret it, and want to do something else.
However it will cause balance issues if they allow people to specialize in everything.

Seriously, how a games "game add on's", as DLC is labeled in the marketplace are not automatically and always at the top of extras or downloads for a game is beyond me.
A true wolf will specialize in everything though. Gotta cleanse those BKs.

^Truth. That's why I think they're making it more of an actual, pin-point throw instead of just the "lob" in Halo 1/2
This man... This man right here knows his shit. That's why I'm trying to push everyone I know to get the Special Edition so WAY MORE people have access to all the maps from day one! We all know people are lazy and cheap, so offering future map packs to buy WITH the game on launch day via a redeemable code is ABSOLUTELY the smartest thing to do with DLC (at this point anyway).
Join the movement people. Buy the goods ;]

HNGGGGGGG.
What is this from? I have not kept up with the thread the past few days because of Steam.
I think some people are selling their passes still (not sure) and me and Yeti still have room at our hotel
Was in the same boat as you last month, and the second I looked on eBay I basically yaoming.jpg'd.
Good luck though :_\
Do you have a PAX pass? I wasn't sure if that's what you are asking about.
There's always scalpers outside the convention center...
Ha. Suspected as much.
Ever since Frankie said that there was a "vehicle" bigger than the "mecha" on Adrift.

I cut together all the clips from the Making of Halo 4 trailer for easy viewing. Hope everyone enjoys. This should make Gif making easier as well

He Stalker,
MECH CONFIRMED.
That doesn't look like the cyclops (note the roof above the head) its a bit smaller too.
I wonder if there are different classes of Mechs, because the one on Adrift looks more beefy then this one.
You think we appreciate this?I cut together all the clips from the Making of Halo 4 trailer for easy viewing. Hope everyone enjoys. This should make Gif making easier as well

I looked them up and they are going for about $100 for a one day pass or about $250 for the three-day passes. Wildly overpriced and not worth it for that price for myself. I'm pretty much holding out for GAFers/others that sometimes sell their passes for fair prices closer to the event when scheduling conflicts arise, otherwise I won't be going.

Interesting.
Must sell more 64x64 graphics on blocky tshirts instead of as gamerpics
You realize this will most likely be in direct feed by this week?
I was making shaky cam .GIFs to try out and learn some After Effect tools.
This would be a lot easier with direct feed though.

Every playlist in Reach is basically three maps. MLG is Countdown > Sanctuary > Zealot and maaaayyybe the occasional Pit (order based on frequency). How can anyone enjoy playing 3 maps over and over and over again? Thank you Bungie. Thank you Reach. With only 10 non-forge maps being released for Halo4, I'm highly concerned that the game will follow the same sad path. They're putting a lot of their eggs in a small basket, which won't bode well if the maps flop...

But is it fascinating?
With the 8GB requirement I imagine they're going to be pushing DLC hard. Hopefully it's actually with the point of adoption rates going up, because if they pull the 10$ forever stuff again it's not going to work.
And since we already know there's 3 DLC packs, I imagine they'll all be out before E3 2013.
I keep hearing "the first three mappacks" in interviews, like there are going to be more.
Yeah, and we also heard there'd be more Reach DLC if Anni sold well. In their own words, Anniversary sold above expectations. I don't see any more Reach DLC.
With everything pointing to a 2 year cycle as standard, I don't see them having the bandwidth to work on both Halo 5 and more 4 DLC at the same time, unless the DLC is heavily outsourced to Certain Affinity. I wish they had done the outsourcing thing for Reach, just let Certain Affinity go wild and drop content on the playerbase every 3 months. Instead we got a repeat of 3 where the first two DLC packs released promptly and kept the playerbase hot, then they just sat on their hands to cross market another game again.
Though to be fair, the default maps in Reach was terrible. Can't say much in regards to Halo 4, but surely they won't be as bad.
It is not known.
