My Halo 4 first impressions

[Gesture Required Ahead]

Just got the game today, I played a little bit but I'm takign a break now.I don't think I'd be pulling an all-nighter since I'm tired from the work I did today.

All blabbing aside, here's my first impressions(note that I watched little info on this game since e3 to avoid spoilers and get surprises):

Likes:
Halo 2 / Halo 3(MLG) Running Speed is back!!
BR is kick-ass as ever, though slightly weaker(5 shots instead of 4)
MY GOD THE GRAPHICS ARE AMAZING
Faster-paced gameplay
Good maps so far(YAY VALHALLA IS BACK)
Spartan Ops is amazing
Campaign is amazing
Everything is so detailed(Weapons , Warthog , Armor)


Dislikes:
Some weapons are too powerful compared to their previous versions(Assault Rifle turned into a longer-raned SMG)
Unlocking shit that aren't worth unlocking(Emblems...WHAT?)
Too noob friendly(Killcam , insta-respawn , grenade indicator , Power weapon indicator)
Halo: Reach jump height (No trickjumping for me )
Pistol is nerfed
Grenade and Wraith arcs too low

Don't care but worth mentioning:
Disc 2 needs to be installed to your Xbox(contains multiplayer)


This is only my first impressions.The things I have not mentioned means that I didn't see much of it yet like the Forerunner weapons(So far I only touched Scattershot and Railgun). I'll give it some time to see how it goes.Having Master Chief back is a big 1-up though.Hopefully it doesn't get shittier within the next 2 months as Reach did.

I hear some people saying it's like CoD4 + Halo 2 with it's own flavor. If that's true this is a must get for me.

Valhalla, really? You enjoyed that garbage?
I'm appalled personally that they chose map over any.

The Running Speed gives the Halo 2 feeling, The CoD elements kind of makes it feel CoD-ie which is meh.

Valhalla was my 2nd favorite Halo 3 map next to Guardian.I don't know why anyone would hate it.It's the perfect large-sized Halo map.

I asked a question over at Gamefaqs about what Halo 4 has to offer and got dumb replies so thanks for the list, now I know what to expect. I can't wait to play this game.
