Abandon reminds me of Halo 2's Backwash, which was a truly awful map.

Regarding Ragnarok - Hell Yeah!! I loved Valhalla in Halo 3. Great BTB map.

Valhalla is a nice map but would've preferred Terminal which is way better than any Halo 3 map by a wide margin.Checkout the new map's that were debuted called Meltdown and Solace as both of them look fantastic.

Any more news regarding split screen / mulitplayer since June? e.g. back then the summary seemed to be:

In the downtime between sessions, I had a chance to speak with Halo 4 Lead Designer Kevin Franklin. He shared that split-screen co-operative gameplay will return to Halo 4's campaign, but that 343 is not yet sure if it will be playable for more than two players on one television. There has been no decision yet on whether Spartan Ops will be playable in split-screen. Adversarial multiplayer will allow local split-screen, and will let you to take friends online in split-screen as well. Similarly to campaign co-op, a player count has yet to be finalized. Either way, it's good to know that yet another Halo staple will remain a part of Halo 4.

Campaign: 2 or 4 player? How many local? (Split screen again, or 4 way... or none?)
Spartan Ops: 4 players (right?) so how many local?
War Games: Still 4 player split screen? How many total online 16, 20, 24?

Curious, especially as I have people who want to come over and play it soon after launch.

Campaign and SpOps are four player max.

 

[Acert93]

Well, that is a start. But you get an incomplete for not answering all questions or answering all subsets of each question. tsk tsk. How many on a local system? I have heard people chat about split screen campaign but maybe no split screen on SpOps -- but I am looking for a confirmation of the details.

 

[AlNom]

Trying to find that out isn't easy apparently.

Still 16 players in MP.

Is Bungie even developing this?

I hope Invasion returns, as it is my all time favorite MP gametype.

Just bought anniversary. I'll play it right before HALO 4 releases, to get in the right mood

I've just dusted down my original Xbox for some Halo fun this weekend!

Hmm. Seems quite a bit different from Invasion. Not sure if I'll like this one as much.

Invasion was basically the only offense/defense gametype that I enjoyed.

I could be wrong, but I believe that was pulled from Halo 4.

Dominion plays more like the Conquest gametype from Battlefield which to me is better than Invasion.It's still offensive/defensive but a bit different..You will like it..

NRP will like it because he can be my copilot

Nothing beats getting ~75% of your helicopter unlocks in one glorious, come-from-behind game.

Though this looks really good:

I am probably in the minority here, , But I kind of... prefer the "old" Halo4 style/engine:

Much better lighting and shader effects.
Is there a chance that they'll revert to the previous shown Halo4 engine or style before release?

Multiplayer vs campaign.
