Can not wait.

Impressed by the Aniversarry edition, but it only takes a competant enough dev to make a good remaster.

it takes an amazing dev to handle a knew installment in the Halo franchise.

High hopes 343. They're what I have.

The only thing i want to see from halo 4 is proper story telling with charaters i can connect with. what i don't want is a muitplayer game with a storymode added in.

While I haven't been entirely on board with some of the changes 343i has made to Reach in the recent months, the talent they have over there is insane:http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/343_Industries Halo 4 is gonna own so hard.

This is dangerous though. Just because you've put together one of the best and most experianced teams does not guarentee quality or success. They need to learn to work together and share a common goal. Without that, there won't be a real Halo 4.

Bungie could do that. So far, 343 hasn't convinced me. I want them to convince me.

I really believe they are exploring new things with making Halo 4. It's commented on in the vid, and I say great. I want some new animations, gameplay additions, story depth. I believe in Harvey 343.

Optional, but good tps mode please. I know it won't happen, but wouldn't that be sweet? On topic, MS can't have Halo games release as anything but superior products, I have a great deal of confidence in 343 delivering a well made and polished game.getyeryayasout
Yep it would be sweet, you can do that in Tribes Ascend. I always like to see my character model.

E3 I'm guessing, but maybe they'll put early footage in ViDocs like Bungie did.

I really hope that these guys can pull the series off and make it be remembered the way what made the original Halo so great. Im really confident that they can pull it off but I really need some sort of gameplay to convince me that this game is going to be awesome.

ND and Blizzard? That's it?

343 has mountians more and some just as noteworthy devs. Watch the video, basically they all came to 343 beacuse they love Halo and want to make it the best game possible.

BTW (i love ND)

Reach was fine. It pushed the Halo formula forward and evolved the gameplay. 343 has done nothing but listen to a whiny minority and attempt to shove Halo 3 down our throats with the TU.

You don't say?



Reach was passed over from Bungie to 343. Since then they've released an awful title update and made a total mess of matchmaking. It was the simplest of tasks and they messed it up big time. Hence, i'm not too hyped about them. It's up to them to prove me wrong at this point, which i hope they do.

But they have Blizzard. As much as I dislike Blizzard right now I cant deny they are probably one of the best if not still the best developers out there.

From such an extensive roster of diversifed talents and history coming together, this is where putting into action the old proverb, "greater than the sum of its parts" becomes imperative.

And they have the goal of becoming the best studio the gaming industy has to offer! (new vid)

walkingdream

Oh, good. As opposed to all those studios aiming to just be kind of okay.

Personally I'm excited. Halo 4 needs to be a fresh take on the franchise, and the only way you're going to get that without MS sh*tting bricks is by handing things over to a bunch of industry vets. I guess some people are up in arms about the Reach Title Update (haven't played it myself), but I'd rather 343 f*ck around with Reach and figure out what works now than spring it on us with the inevitable Halo 4 beta.

As long as it's fun and has multiplayer I can play for more than an hour without getting bored I'm good.

Also no more levels like Cortana.

I would rather they not ruin the game i already paid for and released a crappy game that i wont buy because it's renowned for being crappy.

"And they have the goal of becoming the best studio the gaming industy has to offer! (new vid)" Its amazing how, If an actually PROVEN developer like Naughty Dog - a top of the upmost caliber of developer like Naughty Dog (the peoples champion of the industry, and by far one of the truly best in the game) said something like that, then xbots would bash on them endlessly for being cocky / ignorant , and all the other non sense they come up with, Like they already did, when they misconstrued Neil Druckman's words... BUT, Then an unproven developer -who hasnt done anything worth a damn ,but sign former employes from other studios, can say that, and xbots eat it up, and start chanting and shouting like a bunch of drunk hill billys at a nascar rally. Its amazing. p.s (I'm Hispanic/Japenese, have white friends,and have watched Nascar. Just saying) Anyway, And as far as building up talent goes, What's more important is team chemistry. That's why in sports you always see the less talented team with greater team chemistry beat the far more talented team that has trouble working together. Hell, that's why even Bungie (who has fallen off recently) is still a better team then 343, and unlike 343, Bungie HAS actually proven themselves before. And with all those egos in display and clashing at 343, well you know that is going to have a possibly big negative impact on the game's development. Bottom line I feel is that, Bungie knows how to make Halo, you cant get other people to make Halo for you. I feel that they are going to try so hard to imitate Bungie's Halo, that they are going to lose sight of making a good game, lose track of bringing something new to the old, tired , and payed out Halo series, And so we'll end up stuck with a knock off Halo that feels like a worse version of a Bungie Halo. Just my 0.02 cents Halo fanboyz. No need to flip out

Well played sir. But.... I love it when fanboys make things up, and put words in your mouth. Point me to those instances please, and quote me in the proper context in those instances. For the most part you are exaggerating
