I agree with the CGI being used for more comedic purposes and it does work well with Halo 4. The Republic grunts are probably my favorite characters this season so far too; I love 'em.

I don't think Tex will return though, mainly becuz it would conflict with what Church and Carolina learned in Seasons 9 & 10 about letting go. I would like to see her come back in maybe a cameo or something, but I would also like it if Carolina took her place as the Freelancr of the BGC, since she's sort of Tex's offspring.

Anyways, so far this season feels more lively than S11, especially in terms of comedy, and the pacing is pretty good so far too.
