| == Split Spartan Ops content from Halo 4 ==

|

| I think the article would be better presented to readers and editors if we were to move (and add future) Spartan Ops content to the [[Spartan Ops]] article. This would improve the Spartan Ops article by providing more relevant information on the characters, locations, events, and what-not to readers. For this article, we could include something like "For a complete list of features of Spartan Ops, please visit [[Spartan Ops]]" at the beginning and/or end of the Features section. — <span style="font-size:14px; font-family:Arial;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span> 21:31, 4 February 2013 (EST)

| |
| ::At present there are no plans for another season of Spartan Ops on the 360. When season 2 does come, it will be in ''Halo 5'', not ''Halo 4''. Because the system won't be backwards compatible, it would essentially require the same effort as porting it to the PC, which would divert manpower away from the next ''Halo'' title, or else require them to use a third-party studio to do the job. The two consoles will also use different versions of Xbox LIVE, meaning online play won't cross platforms. This would effectively split the community as early adopters switch to the new console, while others continue to play on the 360. 343 has already shown they don't like doing this, which is why they chose to use ''Halo: Reach'''s multiplayer for ''Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary''. So, short answer: No. There has been no information on any ''Halo 4'' re-release, and in my opinion, that's because there won't be one, at least not any time soon.--[[File:Emblem 1.jpg|20px|bottom]][[User:Rusty-112|<span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:13pt;color:blue;">''' Rusty'''</span><span style="font-size:13pt;color:red;">'''-'''</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:13pt;color:blue;">'''112'''</span>]] [[Halopedia:Administrators|<span style="color:red; font-family:Arial">'''''Admin'''''</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Rusty-112|<font color="blue">'''comm'''</font>]]</sup> 21:02, 21 May 2013 (EDT)

| :::Well, maybe there might be some kind of patch then. I have actually played Xbox games on an Xbox 360, games like ''Halo 2'' and stuff. Very possibly. But it seems there neither any confirmations or denials of any kind. But of course this is entirely speculation.

| Has it been confirmed that Spartan Ops won't be coming back on 360? The way I understood it was that Spartan Ops was going to take up the time between the games and the games were going to come out every two years. So if that is accurate there is all the time between now and fall of next year for season two and maybe even a third to come out if second season comes out this fall and season three in the summer then four five and six can fill the gap between Halo 5 and 6.

| :[http://blogs.halowaypoint.com/Headlines/post/2013/03/28/The-Halo-Bulletin-32813.aspx The Halo Bulletin 3.28.2013]: ''"There is no “Season 2” of Spartan Ops scheduled at the moment, but rest assured the story of Crimson, the Infinity and those characters and events is far from over. - Frank"''. They really wrapped things up nicely/wrote themselves into a corner by destroying Requiem, and with it nearly all of the in-game environments. They'd need to start from scratch for a new season, setting up a whole new location for the conflict. Any time they spend on that is time not spent on ''Halo 5'', and they've already got a pretty tight deadline on ''5''. Remember that Bungie had 3 full years between their proper installments (not including ''ODST'', which reused the engine and assets from ''3''). If we're correct, and the next ''Halo'' is scheduled for Q4 2014, that means 343 is being asked to create a whole new game on a whole new console in only 2 years. That's a pretty tall order. That's why I think they pushed out the map packs so quickly. The last ''Halo 3'' map pack was released two years after the game. ''Reach'''s Anniversary pack was 14 months after the game. Yet 343 released all 3 of ''Halo 4''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s packs in just 5 months. I believe that's because they immediately started on ''Halo 5''. I'm not saying definitively that there will be no ''Halo 4'' on the Xbox One, or that there will be no second season of Spartan Ops for ''Halo 4''. I'm just saying, "Don't hold your breath."--[[File:Emblem 1.jpg|20px|bottom]][[User:Rusty-112|<span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:13pt;color:blue;">''' Rusty'''</span><span style="font-size:13pt;color:red;">'''-'''</span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:13pt;color:blue;">'''112'''</span>]] [[Halopedia:Administrators|<span style="color:red; font-family:Arial">'''''Admin'''''</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Rusty-112|<font color="blue">'''comm'''</font>]]</sup> 22:40, 21 May 2013 (EDT)

Its more-so people turning against 343i for not putting in enough effort into Halo 4 as well as taking away features like campaign theater & scoring - which is what got me started with constantly ranting about how bad Halo 4 is.--'''''[[User:Killamint|<span style="color:Black; font-family: Arial;">Killamint</span>]]''''' <small>['''''[[User talk:Killamint|<font color="Red">Comm</font>]]'''''|'''''[[Special:Contributions/Killamint|<font color="Black">Files</font>]]''''']</small> 12:32, 30 May 2013 (EDT)
