Halo 4 - Part 1

Worked in Robocop

It's not like his looks aren't explained...He has redish/blonde hair and light freckles... That ain't just anyone...he's the gaming worlds first Ginger hero.

Really? I still have to see him myself, but that's actually pretty cool.

It's just good knowing he looks nothing like these guys.

Ah the Sam Worthington-effect.

Actually, I figure John would look something like Jorge from Reach.

Halo’s Story Got You Confused? This Chart Might Help.

This is John as a kid... From FoR comic I believe.

 

[Nathan]

But he looks different as an adult. Right? Right?

 

[Thundercrack85]

Don't we see John as a kid in the opening?

I mean, we have a pretty good idea of what he looks like. We know he's white, we know his height, we know his hair color, his eye color, etc.

When he takes off his helmet there shouldn't be any surprise, he ain't Samus.

Multiplayer is so addicting.

Multiplayer is so addicting.

Agreed

 

[CapedCrusader14]

I'm definitely more addicted to the multiplayer in this then I was in Reach.

 

[Donut]

I do like the playlist more in this one then the Bungie games. I can play what I like now. Instead of playing 10 or so games of what I dont like. To play one game of a game I do like

 

[Nathan]

That's so, so good to hear.

 

[Roose Bolton]

The only thing I didn't get was whether this Didact was the Bornsteller Didact or the Ur-Didact.

All in all I have to say I'm pretty satisfied with where the series has come and what it's done with Chief.

 

[Matt Mortem]

Played for a long ass time last night. I was having fun, but then all the good players came out. I went from getting on average 15 kills a game and a positive K/D to playing games where I scored 0 kills and 2 assists. I almost threw my copy of Halo 4 in the trash.

 

[Nathan]

That's why I stick to co-op games like Firefight and campaign in Halo. It will probably be not much different in Halo 4. Thank god for Spartan Ops.

 

[Matt Mortem]

Biggest issue I'm having in the MP is the invisibility. That **** is too good. A guy I was playing against got a perfection because he would go invisible and crouch in a corner with a shotgun. No one could stop him because we couldn't find him and couldn't see him when he came out. I can't run around with promethean vision on all the time to counter those kind of soulless sonsof*****es. They have got to do something about the invis. In Reach, when someone was invisible you got a flurry of red dots on your motion sensor. Now, it's a bunch of barely noticeable blue dots. I hate it.

 

[jacobed]

Yeah I agree. Its way too invisible

 

[Benstamania]

I'm OK with it... More so when I have promethian vision activated.

Which may be my favorite power up ever. Good bye campers.

 

[Nathan]

This. Is. Nuts. Screw MP. I'm staying the hell out of there.

[jacobed]

Eh, it's not that impressive since it was ffa and he was playing against awful players

 

[Matt Mortem]

Just unlocked the Raider armor and I couldn't be happier. Also, beat Episode 1 of Spartan Ops on Solo Legendary. Twas fun

 

[Nathan]

How is Spartan ops so far?

 

[Matt Mortem]

How is Spartan ops so far?

I like it a lot. I couldn't imagine playing it on any other difficulty except Legendary. The missions (at least on Episode 1) are kind of rehashes of the campaign, but I like that it feels like there's a point. Firefight was just wave after wave with no objectives. Spartan Ops feels more concrete in that regard. The one drawback I found was I didn't enjoy playing it co-op. Especially with 4 players. It just felt like too much, and too easy. Playing solo was much more satisfying.

 

[Benstamania]

I'll take Spartan Ops over Firefight any day.

 

[Thundercrack85]

I do find it amusing that the Didact is so obsessed with humanity being the greatest threat in the universe, when it's really the Elites who all but conquered humanity, destroyed the Covenant, and saved the galaxy from being destroyed by the Halos in Halo 3 (with John's help, of course).

Without the Elites, all the humans would have died in Halo 3.

You'd think he'd knock on their door.
