New things I learned about Halo 4: hit confirmation, no zoom-out when shot, instant respawns, ordinances.

New things I dislike about Halo 4: hit confirmation, no zoom-out when shot, instant respawns, ordinances.

I respect this man's skill, but also i respect the fact that he can play while holding up a conversation. I hate it when people talk to me while i try to play xP

Wait, no 'zoom-out' when taking damage? NO WAY! Never noticed that before.

I haven't watched a pro play Halo in years, but I don't think Tsquared was matched up against any in this apparent onslaught. I'm not knocking the show, I enjoyed it, but  the (admittedly few and far between) arguments being made against Halo 4 as being exactly the same, simple, or a two gun game I doubt are going to hold true when it's released to the public and at the Pro (vs. Pro) level.

Love the new ideas they've implemented, but I wish they could make maps as good as the first 3 games had.

After watching this review, I'm really trying to find the appeal of this game and I don't see it. Seems like the Honeymoon phase would wear out in a week. Shiney and new doesn't take away from the fact that this game looks and plays as it always did.

 Rudy25 its supposed to play as it always did...

FF9000 22 pts

 Rudy25It plays like it did before of course, but they changed a lot... You need to look at the difference they made from the last game compared to games like COD and BF3

There is no complexity in this game,the number of variables that determine how things will turn out,who will live and who will die,in comparison to games like BF3 and COD are very few-which for me makes gameplay simple,dull and not at all exciting! This is Quake 3 with better graphics...run and gun.I guess some people would have fun with such a game but I would stick to the other 2 titles I mentioned above.That "pro" dude is selling it good though...kids would love this stuff-it even has its own beverage advertisement!

 NervoZa That "Pro" dude? Thats T-Squared man! Check him out on Youtube - He was part of a Youtube TV series where pro gamers team up with n00bs to share their skills in gaming challenges and the n00bs rely on the pro gamers in physical challenges. Best show ever!

kingcole225 25 pts

 NervoZa So you love randomness in your games? Sounds like you like balance....

djpetitte 344 pts

 NervoZa 

 

Wow, you are really clueless ... Yes the "pro" dude is a well know MLG pro gamer.. cant believe that you wouldnt know that if youre a gamer... and second you call cod complex.. OMG youre so clueless. I hate to break it to you but cod is a run, camp and gun game. BF on the other hand not so much. You cant win lonewolf in bf it would never happen. you need to be part of a team/army to win in bf. Halo actually  takes strategy and skill(tsquared) and always has. Theres a reason they use Halo for MLG over games like COD that require basically no strategy but running, camping and gunning. You obviously have a lack of Halo knowledge and general video game knowledge. Considering you dont know who tsquared is and you called COD complex. WOW,  that's a good laugh! HAHA

people need to chill...this game is meant for people who like are following the Halo series...i don't like it...nor do i hate it, but the game does look nice. will just have to play it

Am I the only one thinking that the Batle Riffle has an annoying sound when you're shooting with it? :s

Man Halo is just ugh... It just seems like it should have ended with 3. You can talk all the shit you want about Call of Duty but you have to admit Call of Duty is fun as hell and the customization blows any Halo game off the chart. I really think this game will be good but it just doesn't have the flare that Halo once had. That might all be due to the fact that when COD4 released Halo pretty much died. I still think Halo 4 will be overshadowed by Black ops 2 which comes out a week later, and the Wii U which comes out about a week after it. 

ivanrdz005 9 pts

 The-Manimal LOL... That's all that I need to say...

The-Manimal 19 pts

 ivanrdz005 Because you have nothing to say? All I said was how Halo very stale and just isn't the MUST have FPS it once was. Your profile pic is a spartan, clearly your a fanboy and your comments are always no matter what going to be pro Halo. Nuff said.

ivanrdz005 9 pts

 The-Manimal What ever man. I'm not the one ranting. And my profile pic doesn't mean anything. (actually is one of the ugly options pic that gamespot has to offer, I never uploaded any picture.) And sincerely, I don't care what you have to say. I just LOLed at your comment, that's all. Nuff said. :)

The-Manimal 19 pts

 ivanrdz005 Well you replied so you care in some sense. Still no reasoning as to why you "LOLed" though...

ivanrdz005 9 pts

 The-Manimal Ok. Look buddy. When you want to judge or give your opinion about any game, just do it on a proper way. Don't say how BO will be much better than this game (especially when it even hasn't come out yet.) And not necessarily BO or COD, or about any game. I loled because your reason of judgment about this game is ridiculous. If your're going to give your opinion about a game, just say what it has to offer and what it can't. And it will be respected. Not comparing them to other games. (especially when Cod is not even a sci-fi). 

The-Manimal 19 pts

 ivanrdz005 You lol'ed at my comment so I replied. And I did say why Halo isn't up to par to be the best FPS. It just doesn't have the customization the COD has and the gameplay system while fun at one time of era, is now stale. Even If I did say exactly why this game isn't up to par you would still go on the offensive.My problem with Halo is it just doesn't fit a lot of people play style. In COD you can adjust the game to play how YOU want it. With Halo you're kind of thrown in a match with weapons laying around everywhere and the first team to the RPG or Sword wins. Just seems really unfair and unbalanced to me. They are trying to implement the COD type loadout system and it still doesn't look right when you can just go and pick up the sword or rpg and dominate the match.

townsforever 16 pts

 The-Manimal  ivanrdz005 as a neutral observer: ivan looks reasonable and the-manimal looks like a troll, in case you care.

CeasdRedemption 36 pts

 townsforever  The-Manimal  ivanrdz005 he calls halo stale? Halo doesn't come out with a game every year... You know whats stale is COD whoever twitches fastest wins... in Halo someone can get the jump on you and your able to recover due to shields... also shields in general add a whole different level that COD cuts out..

ericlr 41 pts

 The-Manimal Lets all find games we don't like and comment about them....

samirus 43 pts

 The-Manimal If you think Halo should've ended at Halo 3, what are you doing here watching a Halo 4 live stream?! Gotta love haters going around on pages of games they don't like and making stupid comments! If you don't like the customization on Halo, don't play it and go play COD in your cave!

Gelugon_baat 2763 pts

So it's not exactly "Now Playing". :P

 

But really, I know that "Now Playing" is just a phrase to sell this line of product by GameSpot, though I am not sure that I can say the same about those of you who insist on harping that the name of this-and-that webpage doesn't reflect the characteristic of the content, like gatsbythepig.

Chris_Watters 161 pts

 Gelugon_baat We were actually planning to play live right up until 5 minutes before the show started, when Tsquared pointed out that he wouldn't be able to play as well on our studio setup. So we decided to go with his Theater mode replays, and I think it turned out great, but yeah, last minute switcheroo!

Gelugon_baat 2763 pts

 Chris_Watters Thanks for telling. ;)

shinspikes 83 pts

whoa, this game looks almost as fast as cod now.

GreG975 21 pts

 shinspikes Yes as running as a feature you have 24/7 on. But I noticed that there's only a life bar when there was the shield one with the life bar in Reach, that bar seems to go down extremely fast. I heard people complain about how long it took to kill someone in Reach but now it just seems to quick to do the job.

 themyth01 Pretty good?! He's an MLG Pro lol :P

 ShadowsDemon I'm considering getting one for this game. 

bmart970 127 pts

I like XP rank, why does everyone complain about it?

Nexrad 93 pts

 bmart970 because it reflects how much you play not your skill

bmart970 127 pts

 Nexrad I realize this, but don't you agree that it is also satisfying to work hard to level up with XP? I think they should have both a trueskill rank and an XP rank in this game.

rem234 58 pts

The one thing that is kind of annoying so far about the video is that Tom is very wrong about some of the things he said.

He says how he doesnt like that there are download stuff not in the game already and that you shouldnt have to pay more online. And how he believes that the game should have at least 10-15 mp levels.

 

-There are 10 Multiplayer maps and several forge made map variants.

-All the content is on the game, Spartan ops will be downloaded per week but is FREE for at least the first season

-Extra maps wont be coming for several months.
