Damn Salarians are always ruinin' my shit

 

[Karl2177]

Those pics seem fake, or at least not from the final game, since the pistol is exactly the same as in Reach, and the AR is the CEA AR.

Reusing assets so you can have perks!

 

[Domino Theory]

Looks like an Octopus to me.

 

[Tashi]

Yo I love the way the DMR looks. Gonna shit on fools with it.

 

[Poker Face]

Yay it's finally up. Got back from Best buy, you can buy it for $15 or pre-order for $5..

im gonna try and do that tomorrow, except cancel after.

 

[feel]

Please no remakes, the holy grounds of Halos of the past shall remain at all costs untainted by the new gameplay style.

Five sleeps.

Ready for dat Cortana booty.

Too late.

It'd be great if every single map was new for each game.

Will never happen though.

They're real.

Fucking seriously? Couldn't change it even slightly?

 

[Toddler]

From great heights!


Now, have you guys thrown around the idea of maybe a mobile game that would earn exclusive armor perms or skins (possibly other items), similar to Waypoint's earnings?

I'm thinking something along the lines of Halo Zero, not Halofarm or DrawHalo.

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

That poster will go great in between my Bioshock Infinite poster and my Bungie 20th poster.

Not even I could change it.

I'm not really a fan of how it looks compared to the Reach one, but I do look forward to raining terror with it.

 

[TS x Massacre]

Five sleeps.

Is that "16 sleeps until mind is blown" from the 17th still going to happen friday or saturday?!?!

I'm ready for my mind to explode.

 

[Plywood]

It's the scope, it looks dopey.

 

[Stinkles]

I'm excited for The Pit reveal.

You're smooth, I'll give you that.

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

Well I am excited for the Chiron reveal.

 

[Gabotron ES]

Frankie, are tactical packages already unlocked in Custom Games?

 

[Stinkles]

Fucking seriously? Couldn't change it even slightly?

I haven't even seen the shots, but neither of those weapons is reused from Reach or Anniversary. A few weapons for VERY obvious reasons look like recent or prior iterations but I don't think a single thing is identical.

 

[Demoncarnotaur]

Frankie: Did I imagine that you guys said there would be more new sandbox items/weapons than returning?

I hope we get something to tide us over

 

[kylej]

The Pit confirmed. I'm hyped.

 

[ElzarTheBam]

I think it looks pretty good, can't wait to see my baby aka the covenant carbine from first person.

I would assume so since he said in that Walmart video that Halo 4 has the largest sandbox of all Halo games.

 

[blamite]

The AR definitely looks pretty different from the CEA model, mainly is the area around the screen. It's hard to tell exactly what the pistol looks like, but it does look very similar to what we've seen before. The Laser, on the other hard, looks nearly identical to the Reach model. I realize there's a ton of detail lost in the blurryness, but the general material and construction looks just about exactly he same, and the screen looks only a tiny bit different.

The DMR still looks dumb though, the position and shape of the scope makes it looks really awkwardly asymmetrical. Also the Ghost's boost meter seems a lot bigger than it needs to be. I'd think keeping the same AA style circle that was used in Reach would be good enough, but maybe not?

 

[Arnie]

The Pit confirmed. I'm hyped.

Change the colour of green box to red on one side and blue on the other.

Ship it.

goty

 

[RebornYeti]

I'm excited for the reveal of no remakes. Gonna be sweet.

 

[Tawpgun]

The Pit confirmed. I'm hyped.

Catch is its modified with new wires/random geometry.

 

[Slightly Live]

Wouldnt be surprised if they kept the remake reveals until after E3/closer to launch.

A month before it ships, boom, Valhalla and The Pit remakes.

They did reveal Cold Storage at a MLG event, and Halo could be a Raleigh a week before PAX..

 

[StalkerUKCG]

I'm excited for the Guardian reveal.

I fail to believe you get excited, surely you just get less disenchanted with things

They did reveal Cold Storage at a MLG event, and Halo could be a Raleigh a week before PAX..

SDCC is my bet, If they show Forge at PAX Prime then they wont really have much left to show is they attend SDCC

Yeah, I coulda sworn they said something around the time of Halo fest that there would be more new than old, and I assume with the new weapon unlock system that we should expect more weapons than past games.

But my point is, I hope there is more new than old, make it feel fresh. I already see too many familiar faces IMO.

Yeah Im not too fond of the AR redesign, it follows the Halo 3 model very closely which IMO was a poor imagining from its CE form.

I am actually hoping for zero remakes on the disc, but free day 1 DLC from certain affinity with 5 remakes, chosen from Halo 2 and 3. Basically the Gears 2 flashback mappack.

Time travel confirmed for Halo 4.

Ninja's playing Halo 3 atm, and bitching at a friend about the order of Halo. http://www.twitch.tv/ninja

Margaery btw, yeah it's a bitch to spell.

I'm tuning into MLG weekend in a few weeks and I don't even like Starcraft, LoL, and Fighters. Hmmm.

EDIT: Beaten, badly and without mercy.

 

[kylej]

Margaery Tyrell?

Yeah. She's hot.

 

[The Librarian]

I'd like to think myself an expert on ARs.

The one in the leaked screenshots is not the same as the one in Anniversary or Reach.

 

[Rickenslacker]

Time travel confirmed for Halo 4.

New armour ability. You die? Fuck it, bring the match back 30 seconds.

Any HaloGAFers have the Intensity Shuttle for USB 3.0? How goes it? Or is there a better USB 3.0 capture solution?

Get a internal one?

Unpossible.

 

[StalkerUKCG]

Unpossible.

The Internal Intensity(that's what she said ect ) is great so i expect a USB 3.0 to perform just aswell

I hear requires a very specific type of mother board. I think it was Devin Olsen who told me.

Ya know, a Sparkast every day beforehand would really help. I'm sure you guys have plenty of time.

Thanks in advance!
