Well this is gonna be long... 

 

To get better at the game, you have to understand everything that's going on. You don't just wake up one day and your the best at halo.You have to be good at all aspects of the game, from timing power weapons to playing your advantages with the BR. To map awarness to map control. This takes years to become a expert at and honestly thiese are my suggestion's besides that poster's bullshit youtube post. Sorry for swearing

 

 

-Watch Your Footage (1-2 hours a night)

This way you can see what your weakness and strengths are. Everyone started somewhere and the hardest thing is criticing yourself but the more you watch your footage and what's going on. The more you will realize what's happening in the game

-Work on communication

Even when you don't have anyone to play with, callout with mute teammates! Communication is a huge skill to have! 

-Teamwork

This isn't a out BR/DMR contest. yeah its nice to do that but the reality is a good player doesn't get into 1 on 1 battles he gets the opposing player weak and has his team mate clean them up. Practice running in 2s and good bait and switch techniques! 

-Awareness

Be AWARE of what's going on. Look around you check the corners, explore the map in forge see what spots the enemy team will come from if your at one spot. 

-Map Movement

Every wonder how not to get sniped? Great player's take key routes to making sure they are hard target to hit. Practice this and watch pro's. The way's they move around the map

 

 

There's so much more to this game than meets the eye. And these are just a few tips ill give you. Practice on one of these things for a week at a time and watch yourself progress there's nothing better than seeing progress! 

Throughout the next two installments in the series, I expect Master Chief to have to face some very tough challenges. Not just physical challenges where his life is endangered by the Prometheans and Covenant, but internal challenges. What will Chief do without Cortana? Does he believe she's really dead? Will he try to find her again on Requiem? What happens if Chief has to choose between finding Cortana and saving Earth? The cutscene introduction to the Halo 4 campaign described Chief as unstable, broken even. I think gripping choices and plot twists like this are going to be huge pieces of the coming story.

Is the only way to grab screenshots with a capture card?  I think maybe for new forgers you can outline a Forge 101 post.  That might helps a lot.

Yup, coming home from school I saw the silver case (limited edition) sitting there shining on the kitchen table. I was like "Is that?..No way,". The thing is, my mom had forgotten to hide it from me, so she was considering taking it back. I had to litteraly beg her not to, and then procedded to have one of the best most memerorable five hours of my gaming life.

I made this for my YouTube channel's banner.

 

If you don't know, it's Halo 4 with Windows 8's Metro UI.

 

I play this song every time I clock out of work.

I play Halo 4 alot, and I am looking for people to play with! I am a bit on the young side, i am 13, but I try to be mature. I have played Halo pretty much my whole life, an I have come to love the epic storyline, and beautiful music. I feel that this forum has alot of potential, and I can't wait to play with you guys!

Hi Nyx. Welcome to the site!

 

This site can go pretty far if we all work together with the admin to spread the word. 

I will soon:)

Having a strong mindset is a huge part of the game that i think everyone can work on. You'll find that even when you're having a tough day, you're still having fun.

I showed up to the launch an hour early and got a decent spot in line. I happened to tag along with a buddy; but he had brought along about 30~ish games to trade in, so that obviously warranted some impatient people behind us. :s

Anyway, while we were in line, the employees passed out doritos and free double EXP codes
I eventually got through the line, (and finished waiting for my pal to finish his trade,) and I purchased Halo 4 Limited Edition along with the Mass Effect Trilogy. This coupled with my new Minecraft Server, and newly purchased Battlefield 3 Premium is going to keep me extremely busy. For like, ever.

The night of the release, we bought chips, soft tacos, and Mountain Dew. I was sure to not drink any mountain Dew until after 5:00 AM the following day. This prevented a complete sugar crash, and worked perfectly into a well-timed escapade to fall asleep at 7:20 and awake less than two hours later fully refreshed.
So here I am, 17:11 (5:11PM), waiting on my pals in Vegas to get online so I can play level 3 of the story. And I'm not in the least tired. At all.

Agreed, and it's a real shame. This is definitely a step in the right direction but it's far from my expectations. I don't really like doubles and I don't see how you could consider that play-list "pro", especially if it looks like the halo 3 team doubles playlist. I don't consider a player very good for hiding in a room with a shotgun and invisibility.

 

There are also problems with the weapon timers, actually that's the problem; there are no times on the weapons. I realize 343 made this arrangement so that advanced players wouldn't hog power weapons but if they're ranking system would work advanced players would be playing against other advanced player thus knowing the spawn time of the weapons.

 

It's obviously going to be better than what we have now but the play-list in halo 4 is a mess. They all revolve around the theme there is no variety...

Via Waypoint

 

Some early details on this playlist:

• 4 vs 4 
  Pre-set game loadouts 
  Forced respawn timers 
  No instant respawn 
  Ordnance on re-supply timers
  Join-in-progress off
  No split-screen play 
  Friendly fire on
  Max party size 4 with big party matching enforced
  No guests allowed

 

 

This is great for purists although it looks like there is no mention of 1 flag CTF, dropping of the flag or Sprint removal.  Still I have hope!

Fun fact: did you know that Halo 3 ODST was originally names Halo 3 Recon but they changed it in part because of the nature of the in game shoulders with the same name? Players have always wanted to own a "fire helm" because they believed it was the recon helm that had flames on it but in reality it was the shoulders and Bungee didn't want to make them widely available, yet. Of course they made them widely available in the next expansion.

Hey guys, I wanted to know which sensitivity you preferred/played on in Halo 4?

 

Honestly I believe the higher you go ( without affecting your accuracy) the better of a player you are. I used to play on 10 however I have dropped it to 8 since I changed from a t.v to a computer monitor. The smaller your screen is that lower I seem to need to play without flying everywhere.

 

You may want to adjust your sensitivity, depending on the type of player you are! I was a support player back in Halo 3 and seemed to have carried that "personality" in Halo 4. The support player mainly assists the main slayers in his team, he is at the right place at the right time and is constantly shooting, weakening the opponents without necessarily killing them himself. The reason you want to play on a fast sensitivity is to be able to look everywhere and put shots into everyone. Members who have been playing halo for some time know how vital it is to weaken and team shot opponents. I would highly suggest setting your sensitivity from 7 to 10.

 

If your a main slayer and you always go high on the carnage report then you may want to aim a little lower on the sensitivity to increase your accuracy. Most main slayers I know play on 5 or 6 and are deadly in a BR/DMR battle. You may start on a low sensitivity but surely work your way up!

 

If your a sniper then I would suggest lowering your sensitivity to a 4. Personally it is my favorite for snipping, the accuracy is all there without completely removing your agility. If your new to Halo then 3 is where you want to start. If I am not mistaken you are default 3 at the beginning and it's a good idea to stay there until you master your BR/DMR, as you practice slowly increase your sensitivity until you find the perfect one that optimizes your game-play.

 

What were your earliest Beta memories? I know I remember having this sweet blue gun I couldn't use because it was level 10 and the cap was level 7, but it made me want the game even more.

 

Finding my way around the moon as it opened in beta for a short window nobody truly paid or noticed, but I got up there and the couple people I did meet were all having fun with each other, hunting in packs. It actually felt pretty cool.

 

So how bout your memories?

Hiya, the names Krix. I don't have TOO much of an introduction, but all I can really say is that I was surfing the net for new forums and found this lovely looking site. I look forward to meeting some of you and conversing with you all. Thanks for taking the time to read this (kind of pointless) post!

This is the Best i could come up with after looking through everything available in H4 but if anyone thinks they know better representation then i am all ears. NOTE: Although it would be cool to do a Spartan Ops playthrough as Noble Team you cant do the "as they were" set in it because the Mark V is only available via DLC which does not work in Spartan Ops because 343 are lazy dream crushers...anyways i look forward to opinions

Hello fellow Spartans,

 

   My name is Xander, also known as XanderElite. I finally decided to become a part of this great community/forums as of today and I noticed some things.

 

1. There are still dedicated and devoted halo members. (Thankfully)

2. We need to revive this place.

   

Anyways. I just wanted to introduce myself as I am a very competitive Halo player and have been around throughout the decade of this amazing franchise.

I post many Halo 3 content as well as montages, compilations and best moments of me playing throughout the years.
