I think it was said that the bulletin is on schedule this week which would mean it comes out today.

The campaign is never going to be built with Co-Op in mind the events and scenarios just do not work for it, we seen that with Nitro and Uzi in Halo 3 so the point is moot.

Wait, i'm not the only one to call them Nitro and Uzi? Were those common names? I can't remember.

Me, i think they worked just fine in the campaign, Bungie just got lazy and didn't implement them into cutscenes as well. No real reason why they couldn't have been in them.
In the first mission, it would have been logical for the Arbiter to have a couple of his buddies with him. And afterwards too. And in the final mission, they could have gone to the bridge of the Dawn with the Arbiter.

Halo 4 Campaign is all a dream in Chief's head as he sleeps on board the UNSC Infinity.

From the point chief jumped into the Beam from High Charity to the Forerunner Dreadnought he has been dreaming.

What happened was he came out so fast he smashed his head onto the wall and went into a coma.

"One of these days, you're gonna land on something as stubborn as you are!" was his subconcious trying to tell him what happened.

Halo 3 is his life passing before his eyes showing him the events of Halo 1.

"Chief Wake Up" is not cortana buy Halsey stood beside his hospital bed.

"I will not allow you to leave this planet" is actually Halsey shouting at the medical staff "I will not allow you leave this patient"

Cortana is really the messed up part, Chief is alone when he rescues her and the arbiter comes in at the end to save him.

He used sarcasm, we should ban him.
That was sarcasm too, in case you weren't able to pick up on that either

He brought up a very good point. I've always wanted custom button remapping because I always thought I could make a small change to the buttons to benefit my playing, but the option I wanted wasn't offered.

Never did I think about the implications for disabled gamers. I don't see why you're jumping on him for bringing it up. Seems to me you think he's taking advantage of disabled gamers struggles in order to push his agenda. That's not what I got from his post at all. Just seems you took the sarcasm a little too seriously.

That's what I got from the post, too. The cynicism needs to die down a bit.

canon vs. co-op.
Click to expand...

I remember* Bungie saying that flat out Co-Op was not canon, which is odd because in 3 and Reach they sort of made it "make sense"

But ya know stuff like, not appearing in cut-scenes etc.


If ellis or frankie felt like answering, Id ask:
"at what point was the decision made to make everyone appear as a chief clone and/or why?"




*my memory =/= perfect

Nah, in co-op the Arbiter is with the Chief from the start. So... Which is canon, the 2 player co-op or the single player? Because both are valid really, and the Arbiter follows the Chief practically constantly.

Haven't they already answered that?

I believe the answer was basically....it's a game. :)

He probably got scared off by what this thread turned into. I imagine he will be in the Halo 4 OT. I hope, along with the others.

Still lurk here. Haven't played halo since last year. Don't plan to ever play Halo MP again after Reach. I look forward to playing Spartan Ops every week though. Got my pre-order in with the newegg $10 off recently.

Do people ever get their order in day one?

I ordered ODST from Amazon for one of their deals and ended up having to wait 3 days after it came out. They had my money for like 2 weeks.

Although pointless, instead of having 4 Halo 4 MCs running around it would be cool if the other 3 were something like FUD armor, Halo CEA armor and Halo 3 armor, of course all remastered in the new engine/style. But Im fine with 4 Halo 4 MCs, that would just be like one of those cool but unneeded things.

I don't expect much today. Probably like a 360 degree video of some enemy or something, at most. I hope to be pleasantly surprised.

While we're waiting for news to drop, care to read some rampant speculation about Halo 4's multiplayer canonicity? Yes? Well, have I got a deal for you!

It's Forward Unto Dawn's "Beyond The Frontline", Entry 12: "Cross Purposes"!

Welp Frankie shouldn't have said sleep early and I wouldn't be "complaining."

lol learn to be patient is all I'm saying. If you get the video 30 minutes from now or 30 minutes ago you'd be doing the same thing: complaining about minuscule details in whatever we get.

Enjoy this time of quiet reverence before we all go off the deep end over something we get in whatever they give us.
