Halo 4 breaks franchise sales records

[QUOTE="Cranler"][QUOTE="balfe1990"]

They really couldn't play any differently...

Get a seasoned CoD player to play a match of Slayer and he'd be destroyed. Halo is a very hard game to master and the platform it's on is irrelevant. A lot of PC gamers would struggle too. There are pretty much no games out on console that play like Halo.

Agreed, but it's not far behind. You benefit immensely from knowing how far frags bounce and in which direction, how many bursts from your BR are needed to take down your current foe, how to use a Splaser efficiently, when to melee in close quarters(everyone knows what I'm talking about), how far your Hog fishtails, how to strafe well and a sh*tload more besides.

It's an easy game to pick up and play, but it's really difficult to get that "feel" for the game. It controls and feels the same at it's core since Halo:CE, which I first played over ten years ago. A lot of the above stuff pertained to that game also but I still find myself making stupid mistakes and dying, and immediately after thinking; I should have twitched to the left a bit, or I should have jumped, or I should have thrown a plasma nade, and so on.

Funny, the CS players said something similar and the team from CoD is the top team in CS GO right now

Have no idea what you're referring to...

And CS and CoD would be far more similar than Halo and CoD, so I'm not sure how that's relevant.

It's about as relevant as you referring to CoD and Halo players.

Have you even played CS? Halo is far more similar to CoD than CS. Neither game has a skill gap, while CS does

Are you and SNIPER related at all?

Doesn't mean he can't be his mentally r3+@rded dyslexic cousin who got removed twice from the family tree.

Affected?

[QUOTE="clone01"] No. DarkLink77 actually has a brain.Liquid_

What?

Anyways, I got rid of the dyslexic part. I am really sorry and I have no idea what part of my brain possessed me to write that dumb$#!+ out.

don't really get the comparisons here.

FPS on consoles, in general, are for noobs/casuals. CS:GO is a pile of turds as well.

I'm sure Halo 4 is great n all, but its just another console FPS. Can not even be close to the same level as UT/Quake.

Can't say for CoD, but Halo has a large skill gap. Large enough that the pros have been complaining in every other Halo game that the gameplay keeps changing to cater to casuals.

No, Halo is not more similar to CoD than CS. Halo's distant PC born cousins are UT and Quake; it's essentially a slowed down version of either. CS is more similar to CoD, and always has been, skill gap aside. Loadouts, fast kills, simcade handling etc.

Just goes to show u halo 3 pretty much sucked i bought halo 1/2 on launch but halo 3 looks unpolished so i never bought it and i bought halo odst for gears of war 3 beta to check out graphical improvements pretty much i dont even really like gears of war's gameplay.

casualU

Dude, shut up. Nobody cares.

matchmaking besides aim assist are the worst things in the video game industry besides casuals.

I was watching some online gameplay on YouTube and was really impressed. I've played past Halos and while they weren't bad, I just couldn't get into it. Halo 4 looks great though and while it has changed the formula up a bit, it looks like a change for the better. Definitely better than any MP FPS on PS3, that's for sure.BPoole96

Looks great? Dear God you have terrible standards

Shame halo 2 didnt let you host dedicated auto aim off servers like unreal championship xbox live's launch FPS.

When you set up a custom game u should have option to disable the aim assist along with being able to change fran limit and time limit and map and gametype before u start the game even 007 goldeneye on n64 is like this.

Dear god, you have no taste in what's good or not.

I'm guessing you're a COD fan? Even worse, maybe a PS3 user who's still sulking over Skyrim?

See player 1#=host he can set the map and gametype and if auto aim is on/off before he launches the game.

This should be standard for all console shooters.

UNREAL CHAMPIONSHIP XBOX LIVE'S LAUNCH FPS IS SAME WAY AS 007 TRUE AUTO AIM OFF GAMEPLAY.

Why the hell are you still on this thread? No one gives two sh1ts about you and your posts, and they have nothing to do with Halo 4.

bungie pissed me off because they tried to design their own goofy ass online set up instead of the framework provided originally by microsoft.

they made the online set up sh1tty

Yeah, Halo 4 and Forza 4 (yes, I know... old stuff) have convinced me to get myself a 360 (again :|) for Christmas. Probably getting the 4 GB one just to play the exclusives.

The multiplayer looks amazing.

There isnt a single nintendo64 fps that doesnt let you turn off auto aim.

bungies got alot of nerve for 11 years to still not add the option same for 343 new devs picking it up.

These people deserve to be tortured they casualized console fps genre.

No one deserves to be "tortured", over a video game. You either, A.) Have serious mental issues, or B.) are just an ignorant dumbass.

Goldeneye 007 was one of the best shooters of all time, but you don't have to spam it all over this thread.

Who cares if you can't turn off the music? The music in Halo 4 is beautiful, I don't see why you'd want to mute it.

Once again, you're just making yourself look more and more like an a**hole.
