Your just rusty. It's smooth as the others. Shooters with a controller is a finess thing not the jerk and shoot fest of a keyboard and mouse.
It's about finess becuase there is a serious lack of precision. On a mouse you can go faster because it's more precise and more controlled.
Once I stopped scoping with the battle rifle and DMR, I was playing so much better. Just point the reticule vaguely toward their face area and commence to pwn.
Interesting, I will have to give that a try. Does that apply to campaign as well?
I've only played about an hour of the campaign so far, and I know it's been about 6 months since I played through ODST again, but I was getting my ass kicked on Heroic. I know there are much more important things in life that I should focus on being successful at, but I was able to get through most of Reach on Legendary on my own. Halo 4, why you so hard?
I must be doing it wrong.

Halo should REMAIN a console , Xbox exclusive.
Ironic considering it was originally developed for the PC (Mac, actually).
Looks pretty much like all the other Halo games to me.
That version was nothing like what Xbox got thank god have you even seen it? And it was gonna be a RTS. So tired of people crying about no halo on PC. I game on PC all the time and I did not care for halo 1 or 2 on PC and I'm not the only one maybe that's why they never fixed 2 and its vista only crap. They didn't even look better on PC,yes I own both on PC and Xbox. Halo 4 is fun looks great best in series so far. Next halo will be on a new console so this was a great send off for halo on the 360.
But with a little practice the controller is serviceable.
You are mistaken. Halo had much higher resolution and quality textures than the original game did on the XBOX. Halo 2 on the other hand was a straight port and didn't offer any visual enhancements.
I grabbed most of the series for the XBOX 360 the other day. I'm going through Halo Anniversary right now. As far as console shooters go, the controls are as good as I think you'll find. There wasn't as much of a learning curve as I thought there would be. But I haven't played a console shooter in years so this was a new experience. Would I prefer a mouse and keyboard? You bet. But with a little practice the controller is serviceable.
I bought the FPS Freek analog stick extensions after last Christmas, and really prefer them to the standard sticks. Much finer control for both FPS and racing. Still not as good as mouse and keyboard, but still...
Are those really worth it ,they don't feel awkward?

Seriously the gripes about console controls for a console FPS are getting old. Its fine if you don't like it but you don't have to constantly state that in every thread involving a console exclusive fps game. Also "you" being anyone that keeps doing so , not picking on anyone individually. Just kinda sick of reading the same gripes for every console FPS game.
In fact if its such a problem then I recommend the Xim Edge. It does an excellent job of converting controller input to K/M. People love it and I've heard nothing but praise.

Does anyone else feel that this halo is sluggish? I feel like im moving in slow mo and that aiming takes forever. Plus I really dislike the weapons. You have some cool ones but the battle rifle blow's. I like the DMR but am not understanding how I can see people raddle it off like its a automatic. I try my hardest to shoot fast with it but there always seems to be a delay. Owell guess this halo is not for me back to COD.
I think its one of the best, Halo games yet and I havent played much of it, or multiplayer yet.
I had one instance where the game came to a grinding halt, and that was during the giant vehicle level. Was going down the stairs when the game slowed to maybe 1-2 fps for about 5 seconds. Thought the game had crashed but it continued on just fine after that.
Finished the game over the weekend and I was very satisfied with the campaign. I'll probably try out multiplayer but the single player alone was worth the purchase price.
I haven't touched the multiplayer but in the single player I found that the game actually performed better than Halo 3 did. I saw more slow downs with that game than this one despite the vast difference in graphics. I had zero problems with the Halo Combat Evolved Anniversary game which has some elements which look better than those in Halo 3. (Due to being newer.)
Didn't really mean to imply it was a trend or anything, it was just surprising to see the game freeze like that. The rest of the game went fine and was supremely enjoyable
Halo is a arena shooter none of the load out crap should be in the game imo. Loadouts should be determined by the server and map like in reach. The fact you have to unlock your equipment is what really kills it for me though.i guess i can see why you don't like it: because you heard COD and you knee-jerked to a stupid response so you don't want to play. i actually think its nice because you can customize the game to your play style. the weapons are pretty straight forward, but the extra options like unlimited sprint, extra starting ammo, bigger motion sensor range, etc make the game play differently, without giving anyone a huge advantage.
I've played thru the game 3 times and haven't seen that. I have seen that before in other games try clearing the system cache and restart the 360. Stuff like hat happens more frequently if you haven't done that in a while especially after the recent dash update.
