n00dles0up Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Played the first 2 missions. Very easy. Keyboard controls suck and no option to remap via ingame settings. I cannot wait for x360 controller support. Not being a PC gamer with keyboard and mouse makes playing this feel awkward for me. Hopefully I'm not the only one who thinks the movement controls are not quite right (especially driving the tank - omg). You cannot use the Spartan Laser or Rocket Launcher unless you pay real money for in-game credits. (As well as other items etc) When in-game credits have been paid to use, for example: the Spartan Laser, you get to use it for one mission and you have to pay for it again with credits if you want to use it on another mission. Only the Sniper Rifle can be bought using in-game XP earned, and the same rules apply, once the mission is over you will need to spend your XP to use a Sniper on the next mission. I can see this being a complete playthrough once, then an achievement mop up and thats it. I wonder how easy the later levels will be without power weapons such as the Rocket Launcher. I can almost feel like M$ is going to force us to buy credits just to complete some of the missions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the full 1750 and don't remember any that could have any relevance to alternatively unlocking them through s.a I also saw this somewhere, though I doubt H4 achievements will be unlocked like this. Rather, it will be H4 XP, emblems, and maybe armor. Here's the first unlock. Get the Recruit achievement and enter this code for 10,000 H4 XP. http://blogs.halowaypoint.com/Headlines/post/2003/07/11/Halo-4-XP-Unlockable-Recruit.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
