An Opinion piece on Halo 4's underwhelming multiplayer and the heavy burden this shortcoming places on Halo 5 to become this trilogy's Halo 2 by being its multiplayer behemoth
How do composers make the iconic music tracks from games that we love? And just what makes them so memorable?
Twitter is blowing up right now
All games coming to PlayStation
Next Xbox will have steam
Next Xbox niche and only for “gamers who want it” (it’s a really powerful pc or a steam deck type portable, or both)
A former 343 developer has revealed that mountains of Halo pitches failed to be approved, including a return to ODSTs and a push for more intimate, dark themes.
Halo-Pop like Gears Pop. Halo bowling. Halo Cooking Mama. There’s a reason why you won’t hear about them
With its smooth jazz and iconic New Mombasa streets, we need Xbox's next Halo game to return to the remarkable world of Halo 3: ODST.
halo 4 mp is great its not perfect but i think currently its the best mp out there :) theres a few things i would like changed though like instant respawns are cool but they should not be in 4v4 slayer they work well in other game modes though. and there needs to be a free for all game mode
I think 343 did a great job, but I'm hoping for more familiar-looking Halo-styled maps with the DLC packs coming out down the line...I enjoy the current maps, and like that they included Valhalla (Ragnarok) but still feel like something is missing in that regard.
The Forge mode also has me at a loss considering that Reach really had a much better option. Forge World was huge and fans cried out for more diverse landscapes, but instead were given not only the same tools, but much smaller landscapes to build on in Halo 4...which is a shame considering how great Halo 4 plays and especially on custom-built maps.
Other than that, the game is absolutely stunning and damn near perfect. It has an unmatched fun factor to it.
Edit: Also want to see Multi-team and Team Doubles come back. Wondering why they weren't there in the first place. And Spartan Ops is pretty great, but I still would like to see Firefight return in some capacity.
I personally cannot get into the new mp for halo. I miss the old matchmaking style based on ranks and similar skill pairing. I've never been huge on cod games, but after looking into league play, I've converted to cod for serious competitive gaming. I will hold onto halo, when I feel like screwing around.
I'm enjoying Halo 4 right now, but 343i needs to seriously release a major patch to settle all the issues people are having, especially with the custom games options and some matchmaking and file share problems.
The maps are great, imo, even the new ones. My favorite is haven right now, with ragnarok a close second.
Also, de-scoping when fired upon needs to return or the flinching when shot needs to be buffed to the point where the person who fires the first shot has some sort of advantage over the opposing player.
