New Halo 4 Details

Halo 4's episodic Spartan Ops mode will see players getting 5 new missions every week for 10 weeks. The details reportedly come from Microsoft ExpertZone, a portal only accessible by retail employees.

Additionally, the game's multiplayer features 10 maps with more coming as future download content. There's also going to be 10 new weapons and 2 new vehicles. One other detail mentioned is that Master Chief will have a true "nemesis" for the first time in the series.

  • Oh, Halo, I just realllllllllllllllly wish you were on Pee Ess Three. Master Chief, please please please?!?! Ugh, I don't think Microsoft is listening... Well, back to Max Payne. (great game, btw.)
    [updated to progress my opinion]:
    I really think Halo is the 1 and only competitive FPS that DID IT RIGHT. Hands down. And this is coming from a PS3 dude.
  • SOOOOOO PUMPED! this sounds really fun
  • Show me all the blueprints.
  • This game could be really good! The Spartan Ops sound awesome as well!
  • I get stoked about this game but then get unstoked. I'm still a little ify about it to be honest. But the multiplayer still looks like a good time nonetheless.
  • More halo more!
  • now only if there was a Halo 2 remake like Halo 1.
  • Oh man, I couldn't get ANY MORE EXCITED for this!

  • My hard drive can't take all of this DLC.
  • Omg so awesome. 4 months to go. Should clean out my friends list and add some for halo 4.

  • "Career progression lets you earn new weapons and equipment" Yuck. Thanks 343. Did we ask for Cod?
  • I tried to click the arrows on the sides of the pictures :(
  • This game will be amazing!
  • Can't wait! One of many midnight releases this fall.

  • i really didnt like the assassinations from reach, or the sprint/jetpack/armor lock etc... honestly if they went back to halo 3 gameplay with new graphics and maps and a good story, i would be fine with that.
  • AHHHH I really want a 360 just for this. But is it too late to buy one?
  • I'm excited for Halo 4, but I still have too many questions about Spartan Ops to fully get behind it. 50 missions spread over 10 weeks sounds great, but does each mission have a brand new objective? Or is it like Mass Effect 3's multiplayer in which it's the same mission (survival) with different variables (location, enemy, mini-objectives)? Will we be able to replay missions once their downloaded? Can we play them offline or solo? If they think these missions are like getting a whole second campaign, then how much will the next 'season' of content cost?

    I'm not griping at all, I just don't know what to think yet. I loved Firefight mode to death, and was a bit down to hear it wouldn't be in this game. However, I'm eager to see what 343 does with this new mode they've introduced.

  • I really think that Spartan Ops will keep people coming back to play. It's a great idea and it being free just makes it that much better. Personally, once I commit to a television series, I stick with it until the end. 343i making this into the equivalent of a television show's season is brilliant. Chances are, I'll be back every week to see what happens next.
  • The more I hear about this game the more excited I get.  Spartan Ops looks really interesting and the multiplayer unlocks has me really excited.

  • I've heard nothing about a forge mode! someone please tell me there is a forge mode!!!!!
