    Re: When are you getting Halo 4?

    Yeah, 4 player coop would be cool. Achievement gaining and story beating together, just be quiet during the cutscenes.

    Speaking of achievements I hit 10K gamerscore today

    Re: When are you getting Halo 4?

    I don't mind 4 player co-op, but I don't know if I want to start the game like that. People talking in your ear the whole time, not just during cutscenes, but during gameplay. Like listening to music cues, admiring scenery, being scared or afraid, all that kind of stuff would be more difficult. If you're into that kind of thing. If you're aren't then go for it.

    I'm hoping they try to go back to their somewhat horrific roots. I still remember how much 343 Guilty Spark and The Library scared me when I was a kid. They slowly lost that over the years, what with the Covenant growing banal and the insurgence of 12 year olds, they slowly been cutting back on what made Halo: CE great.

    I remember burning 3-4 clips of ammo in a Grunt on Silent Cartographer just to see how much blood I could get out of him. The huge puddles of neon sky blue blood that would glow in the dark. In Reach you can't do that anymore. They, I guess you could say, toned back the gore. Sort of depressing. But new developers, new hopes.

    I sort of tried to cut up my post so it wasn't a wall of text no one would read, but either way: TL;DR: Reach sucks, high hopes for H4, CE was scary.

    P.S. I would love to go through H4 2nd or 3rd time 4 player co-op. Also need to find a team for Spartan Ops.

    If I was doing it with just REDWATCH guys, I'd make sure we weren't just chatting while shooting up the baddies. We'd be communicating, and planning. Sure, there could be some chatting. But not a lot.

    No, yeah. If you can rein in your group, then go for it. I just feel like the people I would probably choose to play with, if I did it, would be difficult to keep quiet, keep on task, etc. I would rather play alone and get the intended Halo 4 experience, instead of trading the experience for wrangling a bunch of assholes who can't seem to shut the fuck up even if they tried. I would play 4 player co-op after I've gone through the story a few times, got the intended affect, maybe memorized a few lines.

    I plan on taking my first run on Campaign Co-Op and Spartan Ops VERY tactically. A perfect military simulation style. So tight comms, one person as lead, doing scouting objectives, everyone has a role. As long as people follow it, it'll be perfect.

    I would love to do that, but my friends aren't like that. They can't follow orders or anything.

    Originally, that's what I thought FC was. Everyone working together as a uniform unit, making plans in a base, and scouting. Unfortunately, I was wrong. Also, that's the reason I so very much want to do the LARP. I think the LARP is more like what you described than what actually happens during a normal battlenight, which are two totally different things.

    If you ever have room for one more I'm sure a certain Field Marshal would have fun doing that
