Secondly, I was pointing out the similarities between Halo and COD that wasn't their before, not stating that Halo is becoming like COD, just blending in with it.
Lastly, I said I'm probably not getting this game [which might be awesome by the way] because it's BLENDING in with the other games, not because it's becoming like the other games.
I AM hopeful for Halo 4. I just wanted to point out the new things in Halo 4 so the community would know about these changes and state their OWN opinions.
Hey guys, I just read something on the official xbox magazine and they released "11 things you to know" [about Halo 4].
1. Halo 4 runs on an advanced [way advanced] version of the Halo Reach engine. It's equipped with a new lighter and shader engine, supports true HD 720p, and Fast Approximate Anti-Aliasing. [not sure what it is though]
2. The Covenant are back and Master Chief awakens from cryosleep to find the human-Covenant ceasefire apparently broken, with the wrecked Forward Unto Dawn under siege by Elites, Jackals and Grunts.
3. You'll get to kill ancient races that were thought to be destroyed when the forerunners fired the rings.
4. Cinematic scenes will be more controllable.
5."Planet-sized caves are the new Halos"
6. You have to save Cortana from herself when Cortana possibly descents into Rampancy - the volatile penultimate stage of an AI's life cycle.
7. No firefight
8. Multiplayer now takes place on a [super advanced] ship called the infinity and the maps are generated on the "holodeck"
9. Spartan-ops could be the DLC for Halo. Spartan-ops are missions that make a seperate campaign. Sort of like Battlefield 3 CO-OP missions but it's distributed like COD Elite Mission.
10. Unlocks system is like COD. It also uses spartan points instead of CR.
11. Weapons now spawn randomly throughout the map so knowledge of the weapons won't do anything. Sprinting is now default.
I personally think that 343i is making Halo 4 to much like COD or Battlefield for several reasons:
-Cinematic scenes are now controllable, just like COD.
-Spartan Ops DLC is like Call of Duty Elite
-Unlocks system is like COD
-Spartan-ops is like Battlefield 3 CO-OP
I've bought all the games [Preorder, Limited, and Legendary editions] and finished all the games on Legendary but I think this will be the first HALO game that I get the standard edition of because it's not so unique anymore. It's blending in with COD and BF3.
Link to the website for WAY more information on each of them:
