 Posted: Tue Oct 02, 2012 9:43 am Post subject: [OT] Halo 4 |
 |
|
Halo 4 (should have let daverabbit make this OT, he's a bigger fan than I am)
We've encountered a new form enemies are. Are we ready for them?
New and improved visuals. Makes me feel bad for Master Chief, because he's so Hot (temp wise and appearance)
Let's f*ck sh*t up!
Halo 4 releases on November 6th, 2012 worldwide and November 8th for Japan. I didn't care about it when it was first announced, but now I'm definitely excited for pre-ordering this game. I didn't care much about the game until Alex_Osborn made persuaded me with his top 5 reasons to get Halo 4.
UPDATE Community Playdate

Aaaah Microsoft finally popped its OT cherry.
It's my November purchase for sure, because I KNOW I wont be able to wait until I get it for Christmas.

I can't wait for Spartan Ops. Sounds so much fun.

Excellent OP Ugh. I haven't missed a Halo game since I got my 360 with Halo 3, so I'll be taking the plunge with this one, even though I'm going in blind.

I'm wondering whatever happened to The Flood. I know we didn't kill them off in Halo 3.

They'll probably appear halfway through the campaign like all the other Halo games.

I really hate the flood. One of the worst... parts... of any game this generation. Incredibly uninspired, boring, and monotonous.

That was last generation, buddy.
But yeah, everybody hates the flood.
And now we have the flood, covenant, and new prometheans? This is all too busy!

They were in 3, Reach, and ODST too right?
And weren't they not supposed to be in Reach? But I definitely remember them in Reach. Goddamit I hate them.

They were at their most annoying and cliched in Halo: CE though.
I've honestly never played the campaign in Reach. Just started it this week. |

They're not in Reach, since it's a prequel and they were an unknown enemy in Halo:CE?

Yeah, they weren't in reach from what I remember. They were unknown in Halo: CE, but you found out what they were by the Monitor. I hate the flood, because they're everyone's enemy. They're just an annoying alien parasite in which its only goal is to eat.

You probably attempted to play it on Heroic or Legendary.
Reach is fucking hard. Hopefully they'll tone the difficulty back a bit for Halo 4.
I don't mind a challenge, but god damn, when you're playing on the second easiest setting and you get through literally 100+ enemies, most of them elites and brutes, only to come across some skirmisher champions AND hunters, somebody has fucked up somewhere.
I just finished the story of Reach, and i was playing it on Normal difficulty the same way i used to play the other Halos on Legendary. Actually had to be smart and patient.

I actually remember liking Reach the best out of all of them...
If all of you guys plan on getting it, I may have to too, even though I've always been terrible at Halo MP. |

Hooray for peer pressure! Multiplayer is 1000x more fun when you're playing with other people you know, but under any other circumstances, I too suck at Halo MP.
