Report: Halo 4 ditching Firefight mode for Spartan Ops
A poster on the NeoGAF forums got a copy of the magazine and has written up what was revealed in the Halo 4 preview. We won't go over everything that the poster wrote (we really think you should buy the magazine) but we will talk about a couple of the more interesting facts that came up in the article.
One of the biggest changes in Halo 4 is that the popular Firefight gameplay mode won't appear in the game. Firefight, where up to four players have to deal with endless waves of enemies, made its debut in Halo 3: ODST and returned in 2010's Halo Reach. The game's single player storyline will still have four player co-op support.
However, there's also a new gameplay mode in Halo 4 called Spartan Ops. This will be a single-player mode that's similar to the Spec Ops co-op mode found in the more recent Call of Duty: Modern Warfare games. The plan is to release new Spartan Ops missions after Halo 4 is released and that ultimately it will be close to the regular Halo 4 single player campaign in terms of length.
Halo 4 is currently set for a fall 2012 release date and it seems likely that it will be Microsoft's biggest first party Xbox 360 game of the year.

AntTTG_Keogriff321 Great another steal from call of duty... why cant halo just be original instead of set it self up for failure
yet cod stole theater ?
>Halo stole theater from xfire
The reason why theater was in COD because it has been demanded so long by the community. And it was actually for the developers only but they said it was too good to keep for themselves, so they put it in Black Ops.

I bet if they were to use a different example (not Call of Duty) no one would be bitching right now. A similar mode from a different game is being transferred to another game with some of the same features. Why do you act like this is the first time it ever happened?

IglesiasTune I'm a little disappointed that they're making something similar to CoD. That's not a good thing. I hope this will still be fun, but I will definitely miss Firefight. I guess we will have to wait and see...
CoD stole theatre. Cry some where else man.
First of all, he wasn't "crying" he was expressing his disappointment. Second, he said similar not stole. Of all the posts to say that to you picked the most mildest.
