The multiplayer footage so far looks really good. And I like that they're giving the mp a back story. Why do the Reds fight the Blues? It'd be cool if it all references RvB.

Halo 4 "First Look"

Looks pretty good so far. Love all the added detail to the character, vehicle/weapon and level design. My favorite part...

"The backstory of the Spartans and of the Master Chief in particular, promises all this hyper-athletic speed and massive weight and power... You're supposed to be this guy in a super suit and you should feel like a super hero."

 

[jacobed]

Not counting the invisibility he should really play like your character in Crysis 2. Now that guy was a super soldier.

 

[Nathan]

Hey, that's actually a good idea. Haven't thought about that at all. Then again, I really haven't played Crisis. Bought if off of the PSN Store, but never really got around to play it.

 

[craigdbfan]

Halo has way better gameplay mechanics than Crysis despite the latter being prettier. So I hope it plays nothing like 1 or 2.

Spartan 4's look awesome....Also the new look for the battle rifle is great

 

[Soapy]

That looks like a Halo-ass Halo game.

Whoa, 20 minute delay double post!

 

[Boom]

So I'm reading that this game will have perks, customizable load outs, armor abilities, and a progression system.

Where are you reading this game will have perks?

 

[Soapy]

Reach was already headed in that direction. It shouldn't be a surprise.

 

[Boom]

Where are you reading this game will have perks?

Added a link above, and there's also this:

Well... f**k. Don't care about perks, but I really wanted them to leave the armor alone and let the change be purely cosmetic.

 

[Wolvieboy17]

That sounds pretty cool actually.

 

[Master Chief]

F**k that s**t.

2. On-screen icons will point out where weapon pickups are…for a special reason
3. Large feel-good text will tell you how you killed someone
8. The return of Halo 3′s BR

This sounds nice though.

11. Multiplayer stages will tell their own stories

 

[Donut]

It got Call Of Dutynized

 

[Boom]

But Frank O'Connor says it's not like Call of Duty!


I'm concerned about this .

 

[CapedCrusader14]

I'm pretty apprehensive about the game ATM. This video confirmed by apprehension.

 

[louiebling$]

I gotta see this MP in action before I knock it

 

[The Apocalypse]

It looks just like Halo with better graphics. It sounds promising but if this multiplayer is anything like Reach I'll be turned off quickly. Personally I think 2 was the best multiplayer shooter I EVER played. I'd also like for there to be a spirit button, without a damn perk. You're supposed to be this super solider spartan. I'd like to run once in a while.

 

[DoomsdayApex]

After reading that article, I think it's time for us Halo fans to man the escape pods...

 

[Upset Spideyfan]

I was hoping they'd try and overhaul things a bit more now. Hearing the Covenant is back and seeing so many things that look so totally familiar is a bit disheartening.

 

[HoochRosevelt]

So I showed that new video to my roomies, who all gave up on Halo after 3, and they asked why a 7 ft tall robot with full battle suit that is somewhere between a jet and a tank would suffer recoil shooting a battle rifle that's clearly made to be used by average UNSC soldiers. Personally, I'm excited but I just never thought about it like that.
