We had that in ODST and it kind of blew.

There's a Gears campaign level like that, I was personally not a fan
Well, the problem in that mission was that the Oliphant wasn't player controlled and didn't have gun turrets.
These issues could be solved and make it a fun mission.

We are going to see such a level like Gears 2. If you watch the Halo 4 Prelude trailer again(the cinema trailer), you can see how much "playable" area the Mammoth has. The Chief will fight on it. Or it looks like it.
For reals. Its nice to see some nice different looking rock (that we've already seen). Can't wait to checkout that place myself.
I remember that:
(1) i wasn't a fan either, gameplay-wise (on higher difficulties)
(2) it was a big-ass battle, felt just like that and hence made me wish Reach had had something like that.
agreed. my exact thoughts when i first noticed the turrets on the side of the upper deck.

I like to think 343's environment artists are organized in a Megaman fashion. Lava Man, Rock Man, Forge Man, etc. all created by Dr. Kiki to defeat Stinkleman, of course.

Anyone got a 48 hour live code? I've a hankering for some Halo tonight and just realised my sub's out.
Let's try and keep on rails missions and escort missions to a minimum
The minimum is zero
With some clever desing, it wouldn't be on-rails mission as such. At least no more than normal Halo missions are.

I've got a couple I think, but I'm probably not going to be home until pretty late. When tonight were you planning on playing?
It's "design," just letting you know
Typos happen easily when writing quickly. Or have i done that typo before as well?
There are some typos i make repeatedly...

Which one was that? I've only ever played Gears 2.
Isn't there an add on the dash for gold for 1 month for $1 and if you click "no thanks" it gives you a free month anyway?

No worries, I got sorted via pm. Thank you kindly HaloGAF. (and Thanks again PNut!)
Is that US only? I might investigate.

I'm reasonably sure you've spelled it like that every time you've said design
I think it was in Gears 2, you're riding on top of those giant vehicles shooting down the flying enemies and stuff
Ok, i'll try to avoid that in the future, thank you.
I assume i write it so because "ng" is common in Finnish (usually in plural, such as kenkä-kengät (shoe-shoes)) but "gn" is practically non-existent.
Oddly, i can write "magnetism" without that mistake... It is one of those Finnish words with "gn".

why are people voting for elite slayer in rumble pit
whyyyy
whyyyy
At least it feels somewhat like Halo 3, faster movement, health regen, stuff like that. If it just had zero bloom and UNSC weapons too...

Make Him Mod!!
Just Joking
An escort mission was bad? I, for one, am shocked.
Please keep the Mammoth out of multiplayer. Elephants made Sandtrap CTF a disaster.
Check your PMs
The on-rails can be avoided.
Make the Mammoth drivable or at least something the player can command (somehow, details can wait) to move or stop at will without being the driver.
Guns for driver too (especially if SPOPS).
Mission with alternative routes, open areas, maybe it is just a small cargo that needs to be driven to "goal".

BTB CTF on Sandtrap was amazing. Always something crazy going on.
it was Gears 2. the beginning of the attack on the locust hive, trying to plant that big ass bomb.
and the "flying enemies" were the annoying part - fighting infantry on the ground, as well as the boarding parties was okay. but those damn "flying enemies" (what was the name of those units again?)...
so, you're finnished with that typo now?

It needed a second sniper rifle though, imo

It was the biggest killjoy when they drove both elephants together though.
Pretty much.
Though stealing the enemy's Elephant was fun.

Hmm, does HaloGAF have its own themesong? I remember people talking about NeoGAF's theme song and people suggested Guile Theme... What about us?

I randomly clicked on my profile here and I noticed I post 3.43 times per day. I feel like that deserves a Halo 4 beta code or something.
What do i get with 6.00 posts per day (and rising)?
I need something else than just NeoGAF.
Wonder if Halo 4 is going to have demo of any sort, not probably pre-launch but afterwards?
