    I've had a couple of goes on the new maps. I think being away from MP Halo for a short while has dulled my senses or everyone playing are ninjas now. Got the floor wiped with me this morning...the boltshot never seemed to bother me until now.

    Tell it to the cleaning lady on Monday.

    Unfortunately I know the feeling. It tends to be worse on smaller maps. Takes a while to catch up with the pace of the other players.

    Doesn't help if you get matched with 7 people on SR130. Ninja time

    Just starting playing the campaign on this. Got this on launch and only just got around to it. It's bloody good fun.

    Yes, I loved it. Everything you'd expect from Halo and a wee bit more. I'm looking forward to the next one with Cortana Mk II?.

    Don't know if I'll do the MP as my backlog of games is huge.

    Mp is a lot of fun. Unfortunately as per halo most people want to play the same maps to death however its much better than reach ever was

    Reach would have been better than Halo 4 if the maps didnt suck.

    Halo 4 is a different direction for Halo multiplayer, some of the changes I agree with/like, some I dont, but one thing I do like is the maps are all great.

    Reach was ruined by the custom made crap maps. Green grass, grey building. Repeat infinite loop. Drove me away fairly quick

    4 is better online than Reach, in pure gameplay terms. But Reach wasn't so interested in apeing other games, which was good.

    Just bring back 3 and speed it up a bit. Bingo.

    Reach was a country mile better than Halo 4, in terms of online multiplayer. Why? No stupid perks, no overbearing aim assist, no game breaking instant respawns, better balanced weapons. Yadda yadda yadda.

    Pretend my signature is witty and funny.

    4 is better than reach simply because reach had shit, shit maps. 4 isn't great either, I've not been really into a halo online since 3.

    For me Reach was ruined by bloom and Armour Abilities. I hate Halo 4 with a passion, I could go on all night explaining the reasons why I hate it. Lets just say its nothing like a Halo game at all and 343 decided to abandon its competitive Halo fans.
    I played a few games of Halo 3 today and it was great, 5 years on.... Still sooo good.
    I played Halo 4 yesterday and got bored after 1 game and switched disc's. Once Halo 3 servers are down, that'll be the end of Halo.

    Bloom was a great addition to Halo multiplayer. Rewarded skill and even further differentiated Halo from other popular shooters. It went tits up when they did the title update to remove and then to nerf bloom- unbalanced a game designed with bloom.

    I think of people who moaned about bloom as a little bit spasticated tbh.

    You're all a bit spasticated, because you don't have my tastes.

    @muttler Bloom added minimal skill, it added randomness the where the bullet would hit lol. Halo 3 had bullet follow, which was a lot more skillful than bloom. For me bloom made Reach boring and slowed the shooting down cos you had to pace your shots. And it didn't really make it difference from other shooters Shadowrun and even games like CoD has bloom. It wouldn't of been so bad though if they didn't come up with the terrible idea of putting sprint into the game.

    Saying Halo is like CoD because it has bloom is like saying a dog is like a person cos it has legs.

    @Nades Bloom was never random bullet placement if you paced your shots properly, thats the point. Cba to explain why bloom in Halo is different to bloom in other games like CoD.

    Enabled “X-Markers” on the HUD to designate when and where teammates are killed.
    Updated Active Camo to fully reveal players when they fire all weapons.
    Reduced the auto aim, magnetism and damage on the Gauss Warthog.
    Fixed an issue in which some players at SR-130 did not see their Specialization on their in-game Player Card.
    Fixed various issues with ordnance navigation markers.
    Fixed various join-in-progress issues with Flood.
    Added the ability to make weapon adjustments via backend tuning.

    Upcoming title update.

    Most are valid points. Glad the gauss is getting fixed its harder to miss with it now the way it aims itself.

    @muttler Ok lets say two players are 1 shot if they both shoot before the bloom is gone the bullet will go in a random place and the luckier player gets the kill.

    @kinky_mong It slows down the shooting, its just a poor shooting mechanic for Halo games.

    Or, it means the person who takes time to aim his shots properly is rewarded better than the person who hammers the trigger as quickly as possible.
