Who else is depressed about Halo 4?

I certainly am, happily awaiting more information about Call of Halo 4. Confused? Well I'll tell you something. -Before you read, I'm not singling out CoD, I'm simply using it as an example in my belief of 343's pandering. -More armor abilities -I pretty sure there was going to be a gun shop, correct me if not -Sprint for all players, because CoD obviously doesn't have that, if Halo implemented default sprint for all players after a handful of titles without it, it's obvious that 343 has no major issues -Forerunner vision: Call it X-ray vision with lag, so now the armor ability just doesn't make sense. We could sure use X-ray vision today, it's just that it's illegal, it causes cancer, so in the future they have lag? -_- -For the first time in Halo, weapons will have alternating/dynamic spawn locations, which means players will have to remember the spawns of every single weapon on the map and check out each spawn before getting a sniper rifle. -Oh can't forget, SPARTAN OPS That's a great name a three-year old told to try and copy CoD's spec ops absolutely woudn't make. I expected at LEAST a good name, but what? You call it spartan ops? WTF? But, no, I thought the idea was nice. It's just the name. Spartan Ops. Ugh. But once again, it was a nice idea, weekly co-op episodic campaign, not too bad. -*sigh* And right! Armor abilities can now be purchased through the store, we've been doing this all along... every single halo... nothing new, and I don't see anything related to CoD here. -And, John's personality is confirmed to change throughout the campaign. Most of this news is bad news to me, but fortunately not all. Did I miss anything else? [Edited on 05.02.2012 8:11 PM PDT]

  • I'm not optimistic. For me the big appeal of Halo's multiplayer was the idea that everybody spawned equal and player ability decided the outcome. Call me crazy but i think a FPS should be about the guns, not the armour. I also loved how Halo had no unlockable components in its sandbox. Everything was there from day 1 and it was up the player to put in the effort of getting goood with it. As i have limited time to play games i hate games where i get beat by players simply because they can level grind and unlock better weapons faster than me. I'll still get Halo 4, i'm not about to crap on it without trying it, but i have severe reservations.
