By LoopOfHenle Go To PostI… Can't. I've watched too many to remember. Pretty sure it wasn't from the big link filled post here and gaf, but rather something else I found on YouTube restricting search to halo 5 and today. One video showed a grenade throw miss with orange sparkly things hanging about, a literal copy of the hunter grenade, the other showed it exploding on contact with a target and blowing up multiple baddies. Both clips were from the forerunner portion of the enemy lines stage if that helps. Sorry.
Pretty sure Ready Up Live had those nades. I agree they looked awesome. In fact, all of the promethean encounters seem a lot more exciting.
They do. Still don't like the look of the soilders but they look fun to fight against. I fucking hate crawlers though - they are likely beyond saving

Gears UE update is out. Allegedly improves gnasher consistency. See the notes here: https://gearsofwar.com/en-us/forums/98be6d5e03f642a5b8b561883802d401/threads/gears-of-war-ultimate-edition-title-update-9-23-2015/ea6b6b54-36df-4168-b3ad-39b7081054bf/posts
Haven't played Gears in weeks because of the problems so I'm hoping this fixes them. Maybe I'll give it a shot.

Yeah, pretty sure mine is an unpopular opinion, I just hated them in every way. They are like those galloping charging shit enemies in GoW.
I liked the enemies in 4, in general. Crawlers the least, but I never found the Knights to be as grindy as others. Maybe I'm just pro.
I just love how squirrely and agile the Crawlers are. I love their leaping animation and head shotting them in mid air.
By PsychoRaven Go To PostI liked them except watchers. They can die in a fucking fire. They're nothing but pixel checks.Watchers sucked, but had a ton of promise. I love love love how they assist other units, but hate how they were kind of bullet spongy. Id love watchers to take significantly less shots to take out, but perhaps bail on a battle even quicker. Thankfully, they look way easier to take out in 5.
Halo 4 bullet sponge Promethans were a combination of the amount of bullets they took, the lack of visual/audio feedback of your hits landing, and the fuckin' disappearin weapons because Ordnance System.
Fuck Halo 4
Fuck Halo 4
I only recently realized the knights were only bullet sponges against the rifles (br, dmr, and light rifle), but were push overs against automatics. I actually like the knights, ignoring halo 4s ai brain farts
By RedSparrows Go To PostWeapons disappearing was the worst bit, for me.That and shitty vehicle sections. And really linear levels that weren't as interesting as halo 2s linear levels. And, sorry Wes, the story, how it was presented and resolved to the player.
Still, all said and done, I enjoyed halo 4.
The best part about Crawlers was how some would spawn with Binary Rifles with next to no indication of their rank, climb up walls 30 meters away from you and then blain you in a single shot.
By Wahrer Go To PostThe best part about Crawlers was how some would spawn with Binary Rifles with next to no indication of their rank, climb up walls 30 meters away from you and then blain you in a single shot.But the clear indication they have a binary rifle with the ring around their head.
By Lord of Admirals Go To PostBut the clear indication they have a binary rifle with the ring around their head.
Not when the game's native 720p and it's sitting 30 meters away resting on a wall vertically.
By Wahrer Go To PostNot when the game's native 720p and it's sitting 30 meters away resting on a wall vertically.I just think the crawler enemy type is not compatible as a sniper variant. It's like making a bugger randomly carry a sniper. Just doesn't fit with the game logic.
By Wahrer Go To PostNot when the game's native 720p and it's sitting 30 meters away resting on a wall vertically.Do you have a CRT or something?
By Lord of Admirals Go To PostBut the clear indication they have a binary rifle with the ring around their head.I never noticed that, but I also didn't have much issue with them. They'd kill me once and then I knew to watch out for'em.
I've never had issues with Binary Crawlers where I just up and couldn't identify them, but I think it's pretty crappy design when an enemy's first indication of its rank is to one-shot you. I distinctly remember "finding" them in Spartan Ops by getting killed in the main UNSC area in The Cauldron while a Binary Crawler sat out by the rock outcropping that you have to go to in order to make it to the last portion of the mission.
By LoopOfHenle Go To Post1st skull. Love the exploration required to find it.

This video might as well be from a week after the game comes out, that's how it feels when you watch it. Just makes me want to binge watch all 13 IGN guide videos explaining where the skulls are... but then I realize. :(
Thirty. Three. Days.
By Trey Go To PostI need to replay Halo 4.We should all re play halo 4
By Fahzgoolin Go To PostOh we shall test it. We were wanting to play more a couple days ago. Did you make the mine field less impossible? Lol
I THINK they should be perfect now. Lol. Freakin mine fields even go off when I'm forging on the level below it and bump into the ceiling; that's how sensitive they are smh.
By frecklez Go To PostWe should all re play halo 4I just beat it on Legendary for the first time last week.
Can't say I recommend it, lol.
I can't believe we will be T-minus one month to Halo 5 soon. Feels like the beta was just yesterday.
By derpface123 Go To PostI can't believe we will be T-minus one month to Halo 5 soon. Feels like the beta was just yesterday.Time is flying by, honestly. I'm starting school next week and that'll make it go by even faster, I'm sure. It feels like just a week ago that I was whining about the game being three months away, haha.
By LoopOfHenle Go To Post1st skull. Love the exploration required to find it.Awesome, Oct. 27th can't get here soon enough.

Fuck that, did you fix the "sniper randomly teleports and falls off the map? yes I'm still salty
By belushy Go To Posthttp://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=179779936&postcount=510So... pretty much exactly what he's said in the past. Who the fuck knows, maybe they won't show it till a week before release, lol.
*sobs*
Idk why people are panicking about forge. There is literally nothing to indicate that we should be worried. The 2 forge maps on the beta were clean and functional with a good display of shape variety and even color editing.
H2A's forge was pretty darn nice and they said they have significantly improved it. So... Not worried.

So the Halo 5 reveal isn't really late.

Im just creating panic in my head. I just really want to see it.
As long as Pound Pit and Ground Race/Marathon are modes I can make with my own maps to support them, I will be happy.
Can't wait for Friday for new Arena videos and Monday for new Warzone. Having a drip feed of new stuff to appease us makes the wait just a little more bearable.

I think they are holding out on us just to fuck with the Forging community's heartstrings...my fangs have certainly been bared for their ankles. Don't you know chihuahuas have a taste for developer's Achilles tendons?

Plus, Kevin Franklin confirming H5 Grifball in that video helped since all functional Grifball courts were built in Forge.

Griffball would be quite easy to forge on breakout maps. Pretty excited. I'm going ALL in with this game. Gonna forge, get customs together, run campaign co-op, and get serious with arena. Gonna have to start scheduling this stuff lol
By Ragnarok Flames Go To PostFor all the shit I give 343 multiplayer, The trench run at the end of Halo 4 is so fucking fun.I hear that.
By kittens Go To PostAnd as someone on twitter (Karl?) pointed out to me recently, the Forge reveals for Reach and Halo 4 both happened within a month or so of launch. So the Halo 5 reveal isn't really late.Not true - The Halo 4 Forge reveal was done at RTX in 2012. Almost 4 months ahead of time. Reach on the other hand, was much closer.
