Geez, this game isn't even out yet and I already hate everything about it.

... the hud looks even MORE like metroid prime now. Its even has the helmet visible!

speaking of design-- new pelican design incoming. Rigid wings.

Seriously...just no. That's it. That's the last straw. Nobody fucks with my pelican and turns it into an insect-like piece of turd. For real, fuck Halo 4 and everything about it. This is just 343i trying to take someone else's game and call it their own so they have to change virtually everything about it. Fuck you, 343i.

I like that the levels look more Halo 3 than they do Reach, but everything else looks like its been thrown together from multiple different games.

I can understand them needing and trying to go in their own art direction, to create their own image from Bungie, but that redesign had to be made by someone of their rocker. Same goes for whoever approved it. And whoever approved their approval. And whoever pays them.

You know, I wonder how many people at 343 are working on this as their first game (MS hiring from within and all)...sure they may have some big names from across the industry near the top, but what about all them gophers we don't actually get to hear from or see...

so around 3 minutes in that video i saw yet another mid-range scoped weapon. so now we have 4? br, dmr, carbine, and that other thing? at this rate they might be better off just going full loadout. we have enough mid range weapons that perform similarly enough to effectively group them into their own class. not saying i want to see that happen to halo, but that certainly appears to be the direction theyre going.

It's always been that way to an extent, do you prefer the BR or Carbine? DMR or Needle Rifle? Now we just have 4 options instead of 2. And there had to be at least 3, for each faction. I think this is all fine, as long as one weapon doesn't vastly overpower the others. People can chose to use what caters to their playstyle most.

How about Halo 1? Pistol or...pistol? They completely changed the formula from Halo 1 to the rest of the series.

As for playstyle, the 4 different mid-range weapons have nothing to do with it. They all perform roughly the same with a tweaked RoF in exchange for a tweaked damage value, etc. All that affects is personal aesthetic tastes (i.e. you hating Covenant weapons).

Lol you're so wrong. The Carbine is obviously the best of all. Nothing will survive. It's all for not. I'll make you regret that game you just bought!

In all seriousness though, DMR is actually a mid-long range weapon meant to fill gaps between everything else and the sniper/beamer. Which is good in my honest opinion. At least now the BR can be contested and not destroy everything on the field from a safe range. It's still a good weapon, but it's just not the only one besides the Sniper/Beamer that can kill effectively from a good distance. The Carbine looks rather OP to me right now tbh, mainly because it has a faster firing rate than in Halo 3. I do like how everyone is saying that it's a lot more accurate now.
