I haven't played with it yet but I like how you cant just walk away from enemies to spawn dead teammates, if your friend is stupid and rushes you have to go revive him and could die doing so, and in theory that's sounds pretty good. But like I said I haven't played it yet so idk.


Well, they still have the walk away part, it just takes a lot longer.

Also I think I heard that you don't have to get revived? after a certain amount of time you will just get back up. is that true?

No, well yes. After long enough you'll die and be able to respawn if a player is in a safe area, like the other games.

How do you perform assassinations?


Hold melee. But also, there's a "turn assassinations on/off" setting for your controls in the settings section. Make sure this is turned on. I play with it off because assassinations are a good way to get you killed quickly with no defense while you're performing it.

Don't care. Too gratifying when pulled off.

The enemies are definitely pretty good shots, especially the snipers


Yeah the AI has ridiculous accuracy especially the prometheans, luckily the jackal snipers don't kill you in 1 shot like in Halo 2 (SO MUCH frickING RAGING THEY CAUSED)

revive in campaign


If it is only in campaign, no. Though if it makes the game have no edge, because you get revived every time you frick up, I would say I don't necessarily like it.

I assume such abilities will make their way over to matchmaking as well. If not now, then in the future.

As far as the stickies. Dude asked me to link my accounts as proof. So I am.

Find the guys you played with the most, and look through their games. That's how I found all of the ones I couldn't remember. Look through their custom games especially. I found the most obscure ones that way.

That is, if you care enough.

Okay, played the game for the first time last night. Played on normal because I just want the story right now. Cleaned through 8 missions in about 3 in half hours. Loving the story so far, can not wait to play through the second half.

Not a fan of that hydra launcher gun but am a huge fan of the new promethean flyer. I can't wait to finish up the campaign so I can move on to multiplayer. Loving the game so far, the campaign is really interesting and pulls you in. Love the combat as well so far, feels like Halo a lot more so than Halo 4 and Reach. Feels like Halo 3 (what I consider the single greatest multiplayer ever) again. Was definitely worth my money.

TL:DR Game is awesome, combat is awesome, story is compelling frick the haters.

I don't think so, maybe it is because it is on normal (usually play on legend but want to get the story before i go back and beat it on legend) but as long as I keep moving and never sit still I can generally avoid getting hit a lot.

This makes me somewhat hopeful.

Woah, slow your roll. H3 was an incredibly fun game. But H2 was the most addicting thing I've ever done, seen, played, however you want to phrase it. That game will never let go of me. I miss playing it in a way I can't describe.

Edit:

Don't get me wrong. H3 is second best, and I miss it too.

Did anyone else spend hours on H3 trying to complete the obstacle courses guys built in forge? Especially the ones on Avalanche? Was a good way to train your movement skills.

Forge World needs to come back. Was that Reach that had it? Endless fun.

What was your 50 in? TS or Doubles, both?


Your k/d had me curious, seemed low for a 50. Then I went through your games. Now I know why.

Playing that much MLG is not good for the k/d, sir.

I don't remember. H3 had forge, but I would guess it was Reach.

Forge world was legit impressive, just on a size/scale perspective. We made so many fun maps in there.

Also, they really need to bring back Ascension so we can get some tower of power games going.

Wait. Was that what Sandtrap was built on? That ridiculously massive map with the huge temple complex in H3?

No, but they had forge mode in that game. Forge world was definitely in reach.
This was forge world:


On the other side of the clif it had the area that was basically blood gulch/Coag.

Forge is coming sometimes next month I think... along with more MP maps. Watching the promo video, it's much more powerful than the previous versions.

Loving the gameplay so far... stayed up half the night playing Warzone and now my arse is dragging! So much fun.

I've always had lag issues with previous Halos, but not anymore. It's damn nice to have my bullets actually hit people and they die.

Is it going to be forge world or is it going to be more like 4 where it was just a big flat area? I think the actual forge world map was what made it so good.
