It's a shame to see such a beautiful and deep franchise absolutely ruined like Halo 4 has done. I've been playing all the Halos since day one. Words cannot describe how much this game "sucks".

Campaign
Where to begin? The campaign has more holes than Swiss cheese. Master chief has more dialogue than any other Halo game... combined. This ruins the mysterious and dark aspect of his entire persona. The whole campaign lasts like 5 hours, and hardly makes any sense. it's just one plot twist after another. Oh, and I know MC is invincible and all... but how many times does he crash a damn plane and get up without a scratch? Not to mention the ending ::spoiler alert:: How he self detonates a nuclear bomb and survives like it was nothing... Who designed the campaign? A team of space monkeys? The enemies make no sense of who they are or where they came from, especially the boss. And speaking of the boss, how does he even die? Cortana jumps on him and electrocutes him to death? Probably the worst and short-lived campaign I've ever played of any game.

Mulitplayer
As if 343 didn't screw up the game enough already...
The MP isn't even Halo anymore, it's just CoD with Halo textures. There are now "perks"??? HAHAHA this is just pathetic. it takes the entire "Halo" aspect of the game and throws it out of the window. Now the game isn't played fairly, it's played for whoever has a better perk setup. You can now make you shield regenerate quicker, and can spawn a shield in front of you in the middle of combat? The game is literally made for defensive gameplay. If someone shooting at you, all you have to do it SPRINT behind a wall. Or you could just spawn a SHIELD directly in front of you as you're being shot. Or wait! You could use a SPEED BOOST to burst away from combat, like a true brave soldier! 343 is feeding off of CoD to make their game. The vehicles are incredibly overpowered. Weapons are scarce to find on the map, now that there is an "ordnance drop". Speaking of those drops, WHY?!?! Just why?! Such a stupid thing to add. But again, 343 is just trying to copy off of CoDs killstreaks. The game has been out for over a week and yet there hasn't been one patch... It's nearly impossible to find a game that doesn't lag and restart. I'm starting to think they are running their servers off of computers from the 90's. Oh and the ranking system??? What a joke! The ranking system was designed for 5 year old babies. Nevermind, 343 just copied off of CoDs ranking system. But what's the difference? Get XP, rank up. Rinse and repeat. No skill involved.

I'm all for a game changing for the better, and think it's good when a game adds new and better stuff. But 343 didn't change the game to different, they changed it to be the SAME!! The same as EVERY OTHER FPS! Halo was the one FPS that was different. It was actually fair to all players. Halo series is absolute trash now.

With all this being said, i'm still finding ways to have fun on the MP. With all the terrible, game-ruining things, there are still ways to enjoy the gameplay. Teaming up with friends is always fun in any game, and when you do good, you have fun.

I can't be the only one who thinks this game is too different to even be considered a Halo game. Anyone else agree or have any other opinions?
