The Terminals already kind of showed us where it was heading, add to that the Legendary ending. Also the leaked Forerunner level that was cut really early in development, the sketches of the Forerunners and some enemy designs.

Were they actually tied to Halo 4? (it has been a LONG time since I've seen them)

They mention The Didact, The Librarian, Mendicant Bias's rampancy and some of the Flood fights. All core things that are discussed in the Forerunner Books, so important to Halo 4.

I guess that depends on your definition of "a lot." The point though is they need to quit telling us about how much work they are doing and talking themselves up, and just do the fucking work.

Let their "work" do their talking.

They can do a lot while not being behind the mic too.

It's filler time until the next game up, that's why they stopped talking when the game started. It's either people complain there's commentary or complain there isn't any. It's a vicious cycle.

There can be commentary without talking about how much you're "doing for the community."

If you have to tell me how much work you're doing. You're probably not working hard/well enough. And it's annoying as hell.

Let your work speak for itself.

That's just how I see it.

Lol the best is when they said that this will be the last time potentially of seeing the flag run :(...

That flag run by whoever's POV is was in the Sanc game was beautiful. Dropping the flag a few times and waiting for the right moment to run it. Makes my eyes all misty, man.

Wait we talking about when ogre 2 missed the flag and then got killed because of it???

Regardless, I wish 343i could watch these flag games and see what they took out of halo.

I hope Halo 2 gets a remake like CE anniversary. There's something about the Halo 2 graphics that i don't quite like, it's a great game though.

No, it was the run along the Plasma Pistol walkway. He dropped in on the walkway, then dropped in down, grabbed it again, ran through the rocks and capped it. I think it was the 1-0.

which is why i'm so glad we have customizable loadouts in halo now.
Click to expand...

It's 'bout time we got those.
Hopefully the sandbox is balanced enough customization won't lead to issues.

I should say i also remember the maps from Halo 2 though, they were very good. Can't think of any other shooter where the maps felt as good.

I feel like I'm the only one not watching AGL :(

This is the best I've ever seen Ninja play, his highest placing was 6th/7th in the past. This is some Top 3 stuff going on now.

If Instinct wins there will always be the debate if SQ/Instinct are the best, Instinct loses, SQ takes Reach crown overall.

We're currently watching the last competitive CTF games in Halo unless they patch Halo 4.

OT, but any Jurassic Park fans here? Some new concept art from a canceled attempt at JP4 just popped up:

Check out more of the art in the official JP thread!

Halo 4 spoilers: there are hot male Spartans

Is Dev male? I don't even know. If not, still funny, if yes, even more awesome. :lol

Edit: She's female! Oh well, still laughed. 343 better not retcon this. Every spartan better be at least a 9/10 or I'm canceling my preorder

Im calling it now, it was Buck and he is now a Spartan 4. :lol

Embarrassing and potentially stupid question incoming...

I have Halo 3 and Reach, but have only played 3 (which was years ago) and haven't touched Reach. Which would be better to practice up on before 4 releases?

This game as me so hyped for halo 4... If reach can be exciting to watch halo 4 has to be that much better to watch right??

Also if you think about it this tournament is a decent send off for halo reach, considering what it used to be.

Halo 4 will play more like Halo 3 with some gameplay additions from Reach. If you play reach don't let certain mechanics discourage you from playing Halo 4.
