Halo 4 and Halo: Anniversary Edition Thread

Now you know, and knowing is half the battle!

And the other half is fought with a shotgun!

I'm stealing that!

The Halo Official Site forums fans of the Elites were raging when they heard that the Elites wouldn't be in MP so what did we fans do? We posted and raged. Now 343 is reconsidering putting them in multiplayer. http://halo.xbox.com/forums/

See kids? Sometimes raging DOES work!
Now you know, and knowing is half the battle!

Raging works because fans know what they want in the Halo series you take the Elites out you take out the only Covenant species that can actually kill a Spartan. Throughout Covenant/Human war, Sangheili are the only known species that killed Spartans. So it's a worthy opponent for Spartans to fight with. Tomorrow 343 is gonna give us big news on Halo 4. Spartan Ops is confirmed however to replace Firefight so it maybe like Firefight who knows. Here's what we know from here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWeeQBUZblU

^Not true. There was the spartan that died from the brute chieften in the babysitter, and the spartan that died from brutes when fighting on the unyielding heirophant,

This. Brutes are physically stronger, and arguably more dangerous than Elites.

[Grayshot954]

^I must concur only in the fact of brutality. Elites are cunning, agile, and fearsome opponents while Brutes are powerful, savage and endurant. They both are two different types of warriors yet each species are deadly in their own right.

[Gyaos]

I recall at one point a brute impailed someone with it's arm while strangling John with the same arm. Correct me if Im wrong.

[EX Orochi]

I do remeber Master Chief being strangled but I don't remeber the brute impailing someone at the same time

I'm pretty sure people have already seen the big news but here it is just in case: http://halo.xbox.com/blogs/Headlines/po ... 41712.aspx Halo 4 will be released 11/6/12

MCFARLANE TOYS! WHERE ARE YOU?!

[Gyaos]

I love the new elites, but I have mixed feelings about the Grunts. I mean they look cool but the radically diffrent design is like "woah". They look like turtles.

[Hellblaze]

Damn ugly. They look like sharks with turtle skin!

[SoleMan]

Any hope I had for this game just got flushed down the shitter.
Thank God I spoke out against it.

[Godzilla 2000]

Any hope I had for this game just got flushed down the shitter.

Why? Because the grunts and elites look slightly different?

Thank God I spoke out against it.

Like it affects anyone besides yourself.

[SoleMan]

They just look stupid to me.

And it makes me unhippocritical.

[Grayshot954]

To me I honestly like the designs and they fit the context. I mean the aliens in this covenant are basically a splinter cell. An evil remaining branch of the other alien species like in some ways the insurrectionists to the UNSC. So it would make sense that their armor would be falling apart and need changes. I mean it states in grasslands how the engineers or Huragok dissapeared so everything is going into disrepair.

I will admit I immediately got a Gears of War vibe but the more I thought about it, the more I realized that it wasn't the monsters in the series that connected them but their history. Both war machines fell into massive disrepair which left them struggling to maintain what they had. Just my take on the pics.

[Gyaos]

^ Reminds me of the Savage Locust from Gears 3.

[Grayshot954]

^That is what I was referring. They look alike not because their related but because both enemies have been degraded to the very basic of their armor.

Just a FYI - "unhypocritical" isnt a word.

[SoleMan]

If it's not a word, coin it!
