Nothing wrong with speculating, I agree sarg. Has anybody uploaded the MLG games to youtube yet by the way? I can't stand sitting through the adverts on the MLG site.
Yeah they have been. Elamite Spoiler Halo 4 | Elamite Vid 1 - YouTube Halo 4 | Elamite Vid 2 - YouTube Hoaxer Spoiler Halo 4 | Hoaxer Vid 1 - YouTube Halo 4 | Hoaxer Vid 2 - YouTube Neighbor Spoiler Halo 4 | Neighbor Vid 1 - YouTube Halo 4 | Neighbor Vid 2 - YouTube
Why does Geoff need to say what you do in each gametype? SLAYER. Blow stuff up CAPTURE THE FLAG: Blow **** up KING OF THE HILL: Stand in a box Also. Points for being a distraction!! DAFUQ ¬_¬ Also; More points for a grenade kill than a normal kill? Other way around bro!
In every gameplay video I've seen the person playing does really bad, which I mostly equated to the fact that they're most likely just journalist or random people playing a new game, but I've watched some of the "MLG" videos, and they don't seem to be doing any better. What gives?
Not really. Nothing has changed and everything is still pretty much exactly how we thought when we first heard it announced. We're just beginning to accept it and get over the fact that we won't be seeing the return of Halo 2. @SS: I agree 100% on your map breakdown. Seems like the Reach map design has been way too large of an inspiration for this game. The culprit: Sprint. @RST: I noticed that too. I thought the BR looked like ****, but it seems when people fire the BR at the guy I'm watching, he goes down fast. However, we he fires his BR it seems like it takes 6 shots to kill.
Do you guys think there will be a couple Title Updates until Halo 4 is actually good? I think pressing right on the dpad ordinance for overshield would be too overpowering. I'm not going to just ***** about the stuff I don't like for Halo 4, but in Reach when I play ffa, theres so many jetpackers when I'm using sprint, imagine that feel x10 with whats new in H4.
It's the equivalent of your first game online, while your in the process of typing out a review and eating your lunch.
I'm pretty sure it's this. It wouldn't make sense that you could pick up weapons off of dead people, which we all can see is still possible, but not ammo for your current weapon. I think it's just nades, which means you can't pick them up without the perk and I think that's a good thing.
Well if it isn't "Made-a-map-in-forge-so-now-I'm-an-authority-on-launch-maps" UnfrozenLynx. Just back up slowly guys, don't look him in the eyes. I wanted Halo 3, but I feel that sentiment. Guardian, Construct or Narrows: those were classic maps. Hell even Snowbound or Isolation are better than the cruel mash-up between Condemned and Countdown that is Adrift, and Haven is shaped like it was made in forge specifically for MLG. I'm so sick of small symmetrical maps. To add insult to injury, 6 of the 11 Launch maps in Halo 3 had vehicles, and I have a feeling that it'll be lucky if there are 2 in Halo 4. Goodbye multiplayer maps made specifically with asymmetrical one-flag in mind.
Apparently the aim assist isn't as good as it was in in reach. That would explain why they look bad, if they're used to reach.
So what I'm assuming between the DMR and the BR, they both take 5 shots to kill, correct? But the DMR has the advantage because of the single shot, compared to the 3 round burst that the BR has, which would take all 3 bullets to hit the target to do the same damage as the 1 bullet that the DMR does. So when in a battle, if you miss a single bullet with a BR, the DMR already has the advantage. Now I'm not sure where the Carbine is, but it seemed to kill a lot faster than either of these weapons.
I really liked Halo 2, but Halo 3 was the more complete package for me. I was hoping for Halo 3 too, but I just figured I'd say Halo 2 and avoid unnecessary arguments lol.
If the shotgun becomes a choosable primary and it is nerfed, I hope they do up the fire rate so I can pretend it's a mauler. I'd use Firepower and use the Shotgun+AR to wreck havoc. Edited by merge: EDIT: Nvm, just remembered there were 5 choosable primaries and I'm guessing they're AR DMR BR Carbine SR(Storm Rifle) EDIT 2: Apparently there used to be 6 primaries, in one of the newer videos, it says ''five out of five unlocked'' and a leaked screenshot before shows six so they removed it. No mauling for me Leaked screenshot before: No. Leaks. Period.
I hope they bring in the mauler as a secondary weapon because with just the pp, magnum, and possible forerunner pistol there wouldn't be nearly as many secondary weapons as primary weapons.
I hope they don't, honestly. Mauler is far too powerful to be a secondary that matches the effectiveness of the other two. Mauler one-shot punch is too effective and doesn't burn ammo or give away it's intent as much as the plasma pistol does. It would essentially become a huge advantage in melee combat off the spawn; far more-so than a plasma pistol. I don't see a problem with only two choices, although I'd bet that 343 has more in mind.
If they added it of couse it would have to be nerfed, but with the pp you can charge a shot and pummel to get an easy kill, too. The pp also has an emp effect so in some settings mauler would win and in some settings the pp would win. I don't know what 343 is going to do to balance the pp in btb if everybody spawns with one.
I wonder if there is any playlist that will restrict your loadouts? Perhaps like in Slayer (basic, not ininity) there will be cancelled perks or AA? I assume no but that sort of thought.
i thought i heard the BR was still 4 shot and the DMR is 5. im not sure though because even the mlg players couldnt hit ****. i guess its pretty different from reach.
