Ultimate_Kardas Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Already planned out my armor for Halo 4.Here's what I'm planning.Also, don't know if these are the actually secondary colors, but somebody colored it for me.~U_K~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rausaro Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 343 has released an interactive guide on their site which shows all the armor sets (except for the raider helmet) among other things.Also, you don't have to read all the descriptions, but I recommend looking at the description for the FOTUS armor.~U_K~Cougar class Security protocol?

~Allegretto~ Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Recruit looks better than ODST IMO. Its its spiritual successorPersonally I think Recruit looks too angular, compared to ODST. I'll probably end up using either that or AA, but neither of them really have the same feel that ODST did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CeeCee Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 So Halo 4 has some pretty high reviews all around. I would say, by looking at it, that its an average of about 9/10, give or take a few milli-points. Super exited now. 4 and a half days left people!

Axonn's Fury Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 ^ Yeah, I am actually a little surprised. But the fact that the sixth installment of a Halo game is receiving 9.8, 10, 9.5, which is near/higher than Halo 3 (previously highest scoring Halo game), makes me ifininately more excited than I already was.Congrats, 343i, knew you'd pull it off. Now, the waiting for my Limited Edition to come, and standing in line at midnight. Yes. Two copies.- Taka Quote BZPChat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rausaro Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Shh Halo Wars doesn't count as an installmentActually, it's more relevant than ever. It was the first Halo game to show a Shield World, and it revealed the fact that possibly hundreds of all types exist (it was Shield World #459, while I think I heard Onyx is #006)It's confirmed that we get to fly either a single seat pelican gunship or the new Broadsword fighter. One of them is armed with a Spartan Laser. Quote The Redwall RPG; closed nowUpdate: RPG has migrated to another location and merged with another.

Bundalings Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 I will miss the Revenant. Also, it looks like the AR is buffed considerably and the Plasma Rifle isn't present at all.

Ektris Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Maybe it's because I never experienced it in multiplayer in Halo: CE... Only in H3 and on. So I must say I'm not going to miss the Plasma Rifle one bit.Also, I have no idea what Armor combination to pick. At all. Nor have I considered what specialization to work towards... Ohhh boy...But I did just find out I might be able to help host a Halo 4 launch party. Which means getting to play the game a whole 2 hours before anyone else! ~|ET|~ Quote E-T... Phone home.

In fact, it was so powerful I think it had a knockback effect. Halo 2 on it was more of a weak, flimsy smg thing, a pale shadow of it's former glory.Can't wait for Episode 5 FUD.

Bundalings Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Yeah, it was great in CE. One of the best weapons to use against the Covenant. In Halo 2 it was only good when you were dual-wielding the Brute variant. And in Halo 3... I preferred dual-wielding the Spiker.I suppose it's not quite right to say it was worthless in later installments, actually. Little known fact is that short of rockets (and the CE Pistol), the Plasma Rifle was one of, if not the, best weapon to use against Hunters in most of the games.

Promised Land Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Considering that Flood mode is basically Infection with a new coat of paint and some new stuff for the zombies, it's not that surprising. Besides, they'd have to make new animations for every single weapon being held in the left hand, because I can't see how Flood-Spartans would be able to hold them in their right with that lolhuge claw.

How stupid is that?Not very stupid, if you consider that the enemies in infection typically just use swords... I've only see one other varient, and that's with a hammer. I'm not too worried, as they have plenty of updates and DLC for the future. I'm actually grateful we got actual flood and plenty of new features.

Cops and robbers was my fave infection game type. It just seems silly to not even have the option, even if it was only for the spartan type skin. Cant be that hard to do can it?

Bundalings Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 It would have been nice if they also including typical Infection as a custom game type so we could edit stuff like that, but still enjoy the new Flood mode.

Ehksidian Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 (edited) I think that they should have had an option in the Flood gametype that allowed you to turn the Flood skins on and off... Which would satisfy me so long as we can change weapons when the Flood skins are off. I knew that there would be one drawback on Flood mode, and that's it. I just knew something like this would happen... Oh well. We won't have many different gametypes utilizing Flood, even though Infection was so widely used for so many things...

Promised Land Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Regarding Forward Unto Dawn, am I the only one kind of bothered that Chief is wearing Mk. 6 armor? I get that the series is supposed to be aesthetically similar to Halo 4, but canonincally that armor set shouldn't even exist yet in that period of time.

Bundalings Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 http://imgon.net/di-EXLO.pngNice picture of all the armors and info on how to unlock the few we know how to unlock.I'm glad Recon has gone fairly untouched, it's been my favorite. I'll definitely be using that helmet, not sure what I'll use for the other armor pieces. Though I like the look of Mark VI (sans helmet). I like Wetwork from the neck down, too, so I may use that. If I were to choose just one complete set that I liked best, though, it would be Warrior. Quote I want to THRIVE Not just survive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Allegretto~ Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Dang, it's actually kinda hard to choose armor. Aside from helmet; definitely gonna use AA. Think I'm gonna go with the Enforcer chest, Rogue shoulders, and Mark VI everything else. Maybe Oceanic arms though...Better start that Legendary runthrough as soon as possible, then...

Ektris Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Pffft, who wouldn't make their Legendary run the first run through the game?It's what I'll be doing for sure.Anyways, I've slowly been narrowing down my armor as well. If I can get it early, I probably will go with the Recon helmet as well. I've used it all throughout Reach and have gotten rather attached to it. And I rather like the Venator body... And although the shoulders for that fit the next description, they're also tiny, so I prefer the EVA shoulders because I like the more angular look to them over some others.Then of course the Specialization I still have no clue on.~|ET|~ Quote E-T...

Ehksidian Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 All I know is that I hopefully will get the Map Pass so I can use the Strider helmet. I alzo quite like the Gungnir body, I may use that as well. Not sure on what sholders I should use...Possibly Soldier? I'm going with the Rouge Specialization, simply because I love the helmet and the sholders. Quote Steam name: Ehksidian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mare Tranquillitatis Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Hmmm, let's see... My ideal armor would be GUNGNIR ( helmet ), Rogue ( shoulders ), EVA ( chest ), Oceanic ( arms ) and Enforcer or Defender ( legs ).I'm kind of disturbed that they changed so much Commando and HAZOP, they were both nice in Reach. As for the others... well, they actually look more like androids' heads, rather than human supersoldiers' helmets.Have the Achievements been released yet, do we know?Yes, there should be the full list.
