Since we have a thread going about Black Ops 2, how about one for Halo 4? I'll eventually make my way over to BO2, but for now Halo is definitely my game. My gamertag is "Keen Commander" if anyone wants to join up sometime.

I'm busy with Guild Wars 2 and XCom Enemy Unknown, but been thinking of checking out Halo.

What do you think of GW2? I like the graphics, but I think the BIG letdown is how they slave half the skill bar to the weapons you use, and the utility skills take a lot of leveling up to unlock. I miss the entirely customizable skill bar of GW1.

I didn't play GW1, so I can't compare. Graphics are nice, it even runs decent on my laptop. Crafting needs to be tweaked I think, it's hard to keep up with your characters level. I like the way combat is handled. All in all it's a pretty good game.

Oh, you missed out on all the fun of the early days of GW1, before ANet started nerfing skills left and right. I can still remember my MM necromancer build, running an army of 30-40 bone fiends. We'd mow down anything in our path :D

Seriously, ANet needs to unlock the skills from the weapons used. It sucks big time having to use, for example, a wand to get the one skill you like, and being forced to fill the skill bar with a bunch of unwanted skills as a result.

Apologies to the OP for the side-track.

I finished the campaign last night and did some matchmaking. I love the dramatic increase in headshot weapon availability. I like that they brought back the covenant carbine and the BR. I'm glad they kept the DMR but I wish they'd kept the needle rifle, too. I liked that. The new snipe is great but I hate that they made it take 2 headshots with it, just on normal, to kill an Elite. I don't like the new grenades. I do like the supressor and the drum fed machine gun but they're way OP in multiplayer. There should be a balance but the newer weapons drain shields and health so fast, you don't have time to get off enough headshots with a DMR to get the kill. The Mantis is my new favorite vehicle.
