What I want to know is is Halo 4 really necessary? Sure, I enjoyed the Halo franchise, but the war is over and Master Chief is somewhere floating in space. The story really doesn't need to go anywhere from there, because it really can't. The only thing that could be considered a story is what happens to Chief when he lands on a planet and his quest to return home, but again, is it necessary?
Besides, the main part of Halo 4 will probably be the multiplayer because who plays games for their single-player campaign anymore? I do |

Yeah I do agree with you,I mean they can leave some of the Halo story to imagination.Multiplayer is what I am looking forward to the most ,having new game modes like Spartan ops sounds really cool.Having new content for it every month ,I think that has a chance .FORGE is the thing I am looking forward to I mean in Reach I couldnt get enougth of it.If they dont include it in Halo 4 I am going to be surprised.It was what made the game even better and what they can do now with it ,I cant wait .

Personally I'm looking forward to seein what they do with the reclaimer trilogy, I believe that is what I've heard talk about. If they can start up a good story I'll be glad to play as I do more of the campaign stuff then I do multiplayer personally.

Well I mean the only time your character looks like its hip firing in the game is when its holding dual weild. (Or however you spell it) But still, if you look at the guy in third person, it looks like hes aiming a bit. But i get what you mean

Well yea but that's kinda how you have to set up the cross hair since if your looking down one of the gun means you won't be on the other unless you attach them together, I really should go back and play the games and see how bad it seems like your firing from you hip mostly.

I've been a huge fan of Halo since the first one came out. I've never been really good at the campaign on single player, but I can do pretty well in multiplayer. I can't resist a new addition (Besides 3 and ODST, but I didn't want to buy a new system just to play that, but I had my 360 before Reach). What I want to see most is how they handle my favorite gun: The Needler, and if that gets any new updates, like they did with the Needle Rifle. (My other favorite <3)

Every game coming out is about the Multiplayer, cause you play the campaign once then your done, what else you going to do? Sure people can replay it for the achievements but I mean come on, repetitiveness will get annoying. Also, it's a great way to make even more money and keep the people spending rather than holding their money and letting recession go downhill. Multiplayer= money for xbox live= money for dlc's (maps)= people practicing to become better players to compete in tournaments (which more companies are going to pick up Halo 4 professional to make money)= which also means more people to spend money on competition passes, spectator, merchandise, custom controllers, headsets, etc. It's just the way gaming is now a days. |

Seems I have found some more information on the Halo 4 game.
Follow the link to see E3 footage and be able to read some more about the multiplayer portion of Halo 4, which I know some of you are more interested in. http://gamerant.com/halo-4-multiplay...-brian-158763/ Last edited by GreenMan; July 7, 2012 at 03:32:20 PM. |

Well...that video...doubled my interest for Halo 4. New abilities, that scatter gun thing (Pity I forgot the name already ) and, as usual, the graphics are amazing. It feels like a multiplayer only thing, though, but that's always been Halo's strong point.

Achievements that require multiplayer to obtain? That's just... wrong. I know there isn't a lot of them that require multiplayer, but... I've never really been a fan of achievements for multiplayer when a game has both a single player campaign and multiplayer experience.

As for 4 from what storyline I can put together Master Cheif and Cortana are stuck out in the middle of nowhere and trying to get back to the earth to save Cortana from dying so to speak. We are suppose to see Master Cheif deal with the fact that he is human and will be part of the story. Along with the Hero's Journey the idea of what does it mean to be a hero, something that Master Chief never needed to do as he has always been a hero.
Some of the information can be found in this clip: http://www.gamespot.com/halo-4/video...akens-6394457/ Found this just a few seconds after posting, looks like we will have an idea on how the buttons will be layed out for this game. http://www.examiner.com/article/halo...ndly-fishstick Last edited by GreenMan; September 1, 2012 at 09:33:12 PM. |

Seems there are more details that are leeked this particular one happens to be the story portion of the game, something I consider a strong point for the games I love to play.
Seems there will be a new god, an old forunner who the elites are looking for when they happen upon the ship that the Cheif is stored on, they aren't loooking for him here is some of the other bulleted information. When Master Chief awakes, the Forward Unto Dawn is boarded by a bunch of Covenant – they are looking for something, not the Chief. The Covenant, a particularly religious remnant led by the Elites, have come in search of Requiem to find and look for a Forerunner weapon cache. The Covenant also believe Requiem to be the place where a living god is being kept – they wish to find and wake him up to enlist his aid in fighting humanity. Main antagonist is called Didact, an ancient Forerunner. He is the being the religious Covenant believe to be a living god. Dr Halsey, who made a cameo in Reach, makes an appearance as the Chief wants her help to find a solution to Cortana’s “problem” Cortana is able to project multiple versions of herself at once – multiple Cortanas A climatic battle involving the Chief, Didact and Cortana takes place A character has, or appears to have, telekinesis Credit and information found on: http://gamerant.com/halo-4-script-details-didact/ -Forruners out http://www.co-optimus.com/article/8028/juicy-halo-4-game-details-revealed-in-game-informer-may-issue.html?utm_source=zergnet.com&utm_medium=refer ral&utm_campaign=zergnet_21636" More facts found here.

Do you know why they call them the Forerunners?
I'm hoping 343 doesn't disappoint, but from what I hear some of the guys at Bungie migrated over there like Frank O' Connor, and the gameplay looks pretty standard for a Halo game. I'm picking it up on midnight launch to do an all-nighter campaign co-op with a friend, and I can't wait! |

Seems you may want to watch where you eyes fall as there are plenty of spoiler videos out there on the web.
This continuyes the trend of the games being leaked before they are actually out to buy. Seems that Microsoft is trying to police it, is it to late? Article: http://www.examiner.com/article/micr...r-halo-4-leaks Last edited by GreenMan; October 12, 2012 at 11:23:18 PM. |

It looks like Microsoft and 343 have no plans to bring Halo 4 to the PC, at least not anytime soon:

After Halo 3 and Reach, I thought we wouldn't be seeing anymore Halo games because it didn't seem like the series could go anywhere, but nope. 343 decided to pull a sleight-of-hand and completely make something up for what could've been a new series entirely, but instead they decided to slap Master Chief in there and call it "Halo 4." Lost potential in my opinion.
I won't be getting this ever for two reasons: -No money for it -No longer have a 360 |

I won't say that it's really a case of the slap Master Cheif into a series of games, yes they did go with him and yes after three he was left out in the middle of nowhere. I like the idea that they are going to explore the idea of the forerunners and who they are and secondly if I recall right we see Master Cheif finally develop as a person. Finding out the Master Cheifs humanity lies as he deals with, what I consider in some ways, the death of a best friend if not something more. I know if I don't get it for myself it will be on my Christmas Wish List. Yes I will agree you can take it that way as we come into the idea he is dealing with this old world evil and trying to get back home to save Cortana.
Also it seems Microsoft will be repaying gamers who play multiplayer for number of hours and how many MC points you spend on Halo 4 gear and related guff. information found in link. http://gamerant.com/halo-4-microsoft-points-dayz-money/ |

First level in, and I've gotten hit with a sticky grenade and ran out of ammo on multiple weapons. At least you get plenty of weapons and grenades lying around, but this game definitely opens up a little tougher than previous entries in the series, especially ODST. Also, I'm loving the graphics. The water is very realistic, with ripples and splashing.

I just finished missions 1-3. This game is certainly tougher than Halo Reach, especially with the new kinds of enemies. Even the beginning level was tough for me (I played on Normal).
Mission 2: It wasn't too bad. The two hunters at the end won't give you trouble as long as you take your time....seriously. They took over 20 hits to kill WITH a Plasma Grenade. Mission 3: Otherwise known as the mission that....NEVER....ENDS! This one took me so long to complete since I wasn't used to fighting all of the new enemies. The end of this mission also felt as if I was in a speed segment with a Sonic game. |

Hm, I've got a few rage/complaint things:
A tip for the beam shutdown part of the third mission: let the two sides kill each other a bit first before you move in, and try sniping. |

Pulse grenades are difficult to use, I notice that they don't do a lot of damage even though the explosion lingers.
Does anyone else find it difficult to use the Scattershot? Unless you're supposed to use it up close, I find it to be very inaccurate. |

A shotgun takes ammunition in the form of shells, which contain lead shot. Lead shot comprises small balls made of lead. What happens is a shotgun shoots many of these balls out of the shell, which scatter out from the muzzle of the weapon. At a close range, these pierce as many openings as possible in the target, typically causing more damage than a single hole from a bullet. However, by design, this means that almost none of the balls go straight, and thus it is difficult to predict where they will hit at a distance.
