So while I'm still hyped for H2A MP. Im still VERY let down about Reach and 4's vehicle health system being in.

How do you mean by this exactly? Aside from Halo CE's indestructible (save Covenant vehicles in campaign) vehicles, how did vehicle health change game to game since?

Has there been any actual footage or even screenshots of the H2A Coagulation?

I seem to recall there being rumors that that map being just a SECTION of a Forge World a la Hemmorhage in Reach. While that'd be fantastic (especially because it seems to be the only true BIG map on the H2A multi canvas), I'm still keeping my expectations tempered.

From the clips of Coag so far I don't think it is forge world, unfortunately. I'm hoping there is a forge-specific day on IGN First this month. Just having skybox maps for forge is a letdown if so.
 
What do you HaloGaffers think about the current state of Halo 4? I never played Halo 4 much besides Legendary co-op and split-screen team doubles (was pretty horrible).

Do you think it's worth for me to play Halo 4 multi or should I pass over it, especially because Halo 1 & 2 were my favorite?

Singleplayer was decent to good. Could have used a lot more variety in mission types but it was serviceable. Multiplayer I felt has a great base but of course armor abilities and loadouts pretty much make it shit to play. Also the maps were way too busy and just really piss poor. It's like they went to the COD school of bad map design. There were like 2 maybe 3 I did like though. But yea yikes.

I don't see anything wrong with trying it for a bit.

Halo 2/3 was tied to your health in Reach, 4 and H2A it's on a separate health bar that never regenerates. It's more "realistic" but destroys vehicle combat which is to me a big part of Halo.

Really don't know why it's not being brought up more, especially here.

I was kinda hoping they had a more Halo pure competitive playlist. Not trying to start a flame ware here, but the ordinance drops, instant spawns and unfair loadouts caused my friend and I to scream and kick near by objects in the room.

Not kidding...he literally got off the courch red in the face and dropped kicked a large box full of stuff...and he's not the kind of person that gets angry or rages. Best Halo memory ever? =P

New health system was best new thing in Reach. BTB became fun to play without friends, because vehicles weren't very hard to take down on your own.
Don't kill me

because there's a thread in gaming for how Half Life has been dormant for 6 years now

damn game needs a resurrection, not a convention

40 minutes! Anyone want to guess what the playlists will be?

Crazy King Backwash
SMG 4v4 Coagulation Neutral Bomb
Halo CE/4 Shared Playlists
Griffball
Zombies (Foundation only)
 
I think im the only halo fan who could never get into grifball or zombies. It always felt like such a waste when legit halo matchmaking was only a click away.

Its fine in small doses. A little Fiesta Slayer here, Tower of Power, superjumping/getting on top of the map is ok after a string of more serious Slayer and Objective games. But I do have some friends who just play that shit nonstep, I aint about that life.

I loved how Halo 3 handled it with the weekend playlists. Helped make it special. Having it as its own playlist is fine though I guess.
