Not in Arena. BTB is another story.

Why are we actually only talking about these 2 possibilities. We will surely get other and non-Arena modes like Social Slayer, no?

Am I the only one cringing on the phrase the "biggest, baddest, newest, most passionate Halo yet!"

It's overused and in light of MCC... it kind of rings hollow. There is no substance to it anymore.

Actions speak louder than words; and the stuff today is certainly impressive. It'll be preferable to see more of that in the coming few months after E3...

 

[Nollemaster]

Most of all I am impressed with how super-realistic Nathan Fillion's hair looks. Good hair was just what Halo needed.

Yeah, has rung hollow in general as a games enthusiast for a while now.

That's why I'm always more interested in the final product and don't read as many previews any more.

Well, Fred is the CQC guy, I think it'd make sense for him to not have a scope on his weapon.

Spoiler

Of course, that then begs the question: why does he have a DMR then and not something like an SMG?

He's using the pre-patch Halo 4 DMR.

Nathan Fillion tho

 

[bobs...onGaf]

Oh man, I really shouldn't get hyped...

BUT BY GOD I JUST CAN'T NOT BE HYPED

I'm really intrigued and bringing in blue team and people like buck should hype me up so much

... I just expect them to do a bad job This does mean I need to catch up on the halo lore though

Will buy the game day 1 expecting to be disappointed but hoping to be pleasantly suprised

 

[Blueblur1]

I'm excited.

 

[Rtas]

 

[orichalcos]

Buck confirmed.

It's time to Firefly crossover!!!444

Btw: Ingame screenshot?

 

[kittens]

Or he's having an affair with Virgil

lmao

When details come out a little later, it'll be time to start bookmarking these pages.

Yup.

Not in Arena Multiplayer. We don't know anything about the other mode/s and Gameinformer is teasing that aswell. "Brand new and never seen before mode" or something along those lines.

I'm totally cool with weird ass experimentation in BTB as long as we get the Arena purist mode.

 

[HTupolev]

Btw: Ingame screenshot?

Probably a bullshot render backed by a random nondescript blur image.

 

[jem0208]

In engine as per Frankie on gaming side.

Only time will tell.

David (and also Frankie), be honest are all online right now to be aviable as soon as the issue hits if there are again some misinformations like the last time with the GI reveal?

 

[Akai__]

Posting scans will send you straight to Banville.

lI'm totally cool with weird ass experimentation in BTB as long as we get the Arena purist mode.

I'm fine with that, too.

Best case scenario for me would be:

- a complete vanilla MP without any abilities and sprint.
- the Arena take on the MP
- and the go nuts take on the MP

Don't see it happening, because the maps in Arena are already pretty big. This is why we need an overhauled Forge mode and a Custom Game Browser.

 

[IHaveIce]

Ground Pound on a different button. AWWW YISS

 

[Poker Face]

So I'm assuming the GI article is already out?

Elzar start making the bookmarks and don't celebrate you fool.

Joking aside. That's really good news and now I wonder what they will include into the other versions of the game, if it's not a Season Pass.

 

[kittens]

Zoojoo relaying the goods. Damn!

Is PMing scans allowed?


*hint hint*

No, and asking for them is bannable, pretty sure.

The high map count has to be split between Arena, Breakout, BTB... It could be spread pretty thing actually. Still, better than them reusing maps inappropriately.
