: I might get back into Halo 4 just for the ODST armor. Good bulletin this
: week. Not so much of that soulless number-y multiplayer nonsense. Still no
: release date for Spartan Assault though. :(

Question for you personally because I'm trying to understand the appeal. So you get the ODST armor and decide to play more. You're in a first person shooter and really never see your armor, at least not like in the glory of Reach considering the whole terrible card UI mechanic they put into H4, and so you never really see your armor in action. Saved films? Other people wearing the ODST armor? What's the thing drawing you back, especially if the gameplay itself is still, to be tame, flawed?

I hate the alleged Mark V armor, but I surprisingly like the Forerunner armor. Granted, these armor additions aren't something that could ever bring me back to a game due to its pure aesthetic value, but I'd like to understand why it would draw you or others back to a game where I'd assume the gameplay would be the draw (or not).

Or does it pull you back in for say a month and then bye bye again?

As far as the maps go, I don't trust 343 map-making abilities considering what launched with the game and the DLC, so I see Vertigo failing. Community maps are the best thing to happen to H4. I could be pleasantly surprised, but I'm thinking that the weapon/movement tuning is going to make The Pit play hardly anywhere near as fun or epic as in H3 (and I dread to think about what they've done with weapon placements or spawns).
