Hardline is the latest installment in Electronic Art's best selling Halo franchise. This one is a bit different from the previous entries, being made by a different dev team, Visercal (Dead Space) so we can finally retire the unfunny :dice: smilie! It moves away from the World War Whatever Number We're Up To Now setting of previous Halo games and instead to a Modern Urban Crime Enviroment with a greater focus on close combat and fast cars.

Features



-All new setting in the Modern Urban Crime Enviroment
-9 new maps, all supporting up to 64 players (as with every Halo game save BC2)
-Many new game modes, but Conquest will make a return so if they suck you can fall back on that
-:cumpolice:
-Hilarious bugs that will all get patched out in 2 months.
-Commander is replaced with "hacker" who can take control of certain parts of the enviroment, unfortunately not much is known but it's probably gonna be cooler than the commander was
-A single player campaign that's probably gonna suck. While Visceral can probably do a better job than DICE, it's still not worth getting your hopes up.
-New gadgets like the zip-line, grapling hook and trip-mines.
-Hanging out of car windows.
-A fuckload of guns, including the AKM, TEC-9 and double barrel shotgun.
-Tanks, Helicopters, Boats and other vehicles are still in, don't worry this poo poo is still Halo.
-Halo 4's "Levelution" will return. In the alpha you could bring down a massive crane that would gently caress up the surrounding buildings and overpass.
-New System for unlocking weapons, gadgets, attachments and vehicle upgrades: Halo Bucks!. Similar to Call of Duty: The Black Cops: The Number One's Trout Bucks system.
-Spray your battlelog emblem onto any flat part of the world geometry!
-ALLIGATORS CONFRIMED

GAMEMODES



Lots of new ones. As far as I can tell Conquest (and maybe Bloodmoney?) is still the only one meant for 64 players while the others are meant for 32 players. This will not stop 64 player Heist servers from popping up.

-Conquest: Classic BF, will be playable in the beta
-Team Deathmatch
-Heist: Criminals try to break into a vault to steal loot and then escape with it, :cumpolice: must stop them. think Rush but better. One of the gamemodes from last summer's alpha, returning for the beta. Really fun if you have a decent team.
-Bloodmoney: Pile of cash in the middle of the map. Bring the most cash from the pile to your base. You can also sneak into the enemy base and steal theirs. One of the gamemodes in the alpha. Not too amazing.
-Hotwire: Domination, but the point's not a point it's a car! Drive fast to score points. Confrimed to be featured in the open beta. Really, really fun.
-Rescue: Police try to rescure hostages and criminals try to stop them. Meant for smaller player counts, one life each round. It's pretty much Counter-Strike.
-Crosshair: One life just like with Rescue, but this time the police are escorting a VIP as the criminals try to assassinate him.

More info, HERE!

Maps



Generally smaller and tighter than Halo 3/4s maps. However there's nothing that looks as linear as Metro, Locker or the BC2 maps.

-Downtown
-Bank Job
-The Block
-Dustbowl
-Hollywood Heights
-Growhouse
-Derailed
-Riptide
-Everglades

Hardline Premium

Yes there is Premium for this game. Costs $50 same as always and will have 4 DLC packs and some other random bonuses that no one really gives a poo poo about such as a Call of Duty style prestige system that no one will actually do. Having said that, the first DLC pack won't be launched until the summer so you have a few months to track it down for cheaper before you start to miss out on poo poo.


Goon platoons

(click the images to get these badical emblems)

[CUMP] - The :cumpolice: will be the main goon platoon for North America.

THE :cumpolice: BATTLELOG PLATOON IS RIGHT HERE: http://battlelog.medalofhonor.com/bfh/platoons/view/2185842860893017448/

The best way to be able to play the beta and eventually final game with goons will be to check out the Camping The Stairs mumble. The PGS thread with all CTS mumble info can be found right here

In fact, [CUMP] recruitment will only be open to people who are regulars on mumble for the time being. So you'll need to actually play with us to get in. This way we don't run into the problem with the [LLJK] platoon where a load of people who don't play are taking up slots thereby requiring us to make a half-dozen extra platoons for the people who do.



:cumpolice: ATF [CUMP]'EM AND DUMP'EM SERVER BATTLELOG SERVER

The :cumpolice: will have an official :cumpolice: server - ATF [CUMP] EM AND DUMP EM! be sure to join it when the game is out and the server is live. It will be max 40 players. The PGS thread will be linked once that's up but I'm not gonna make it until I get all the server's info and poo poo so there can be actual content to the thread.

Any auxiliary platoons will be added once they are created and needed will not be needed as Halo 4 platoons will still work in Hardline.

They're both gonna be piles of overproduced, undertested dogshit.

Though I fully expect Battlefront to be the more playable of the two unless it's pushed out to meet a holiday deadline.

DICE didn't make this game, they're doing Battlefront. Visceral (Dead Space series) is behind this one.

Yeah I dunno, the strength of BF has usually been doing stuff like sniping helicopters with a tank or killing snipers by guiding a remote-controlled missile up their rear end. It was never really all that good at twitchy short-ranged infantry-only firefights. Though maybe the new developer manages to turn that around, I dunno.
