Halo 4 Flight is live

Its all comin together

Man, Halo 4 wasn't bad at all. I felt like it was really underrated. Out of the 6 games, I feel like Halo 4 feels the best to play. It still looks great too on PC.

I'd say in terms of feeling Halo 2 Anniversary >Halo 4>Halo Reach>Halo 3>Halo 2>Halo CE.

Overall best MP though I'd say Halo 2>Halo 3>Halo 2>Halo 1>Reach.

I definitely enjoy playing Reach though. It just has this nostalgic fun feeling.

I disagree cuz CE is my favorite campaign/multiplayer, but def feel 4 is underrated.

when you look at the graphical jump between Reach and 4 its mind blowing. Doesnt even look like a 360 game, looks like an xbox one launch title the campaign was good too. Reclaimer one of the best missions in the series. I liked Cortanas arc too. Best version of her both story wise n design wise.

i hate armor lock so Reach def at the bottom as far as multiplayer, we agree on that. Still love the game tho, Lone Wolf still gets me feelin . Marty O’Donnell killed it with that piano

Yeah, when I booted up 4 on the PC flight I was blown away by how good it looked. Looks really nice. The MP was docked when it released due to the promethean weapons, ordinance drops, loads outs and COD-like perks. It was toned down but it definitely hurt the game. Halo CE is the purest Halo game but despite that it's really a bit long in the tooth and I'd rather play a newer Halo game that's balanced over CE.

Reach is a funny one too. The title update improved the meta gameplay and all but the stuff like armor lock seems to not be used by most matches I've played. I'd love if they remade Reach with the new Halo Infinite engine and just removed Armor lock and stuff from MP and instead made it a pick up item.

Ya, 4 fukked up the formula because how it was done ruined a Halo staple, which was map control. I know halo had to modernize to keep up with the times(like sprint), but some things shoulda been avoided.

I agree armor lock should be a pickup item. should be like the rocket launcher. Placed in a vulnerable spot that his high risk/high reward.
