>>571897776I can play the whole game for a month for 15 bucks?Thanks anon.
>>571897845All those retards we call devs need to have higher self esteem and stop working for companies that treat them like this. These people got fired in favor of the people that made a massively less successful product. What the fuck else does a perspective or current bungie worker bee need to see to get themselves out of the hell house?
>>571897776Ok marketer

>>571898814Stop doing that. You would come off as much less of a fucking asshole if you stop doing that. Stating the absolute obvious like everyone you speak to is a complete and utter buffoon.

Every Halo after 2 is closer to H2 than H2 is to H1. It's pretty wild how much stuff H2 introduced and standardized

>>571906141Fuck you and the carrier forms
>>571906189
Bungie, you fucked up by not choosing Microsoft/Xbox
Bungie? Never heard about them.
Halo.
>>571907190We don't remember traitors, yes
>>571907059>Bungie, you fucked up by not choosing Microsoft/XboxWhy did they want to leave Microsoft so badly again?
>>571906189>Fuck you and the carrier forms
>>571907272Halo.
>>571907370Maybe they were scared of being forced to keep making Halo forever. I can understand why since every Halo was basically rushed and unfinished until the last moment. They probably don't know how the engine actually works and got it right just by pure luck.
>jeetlo studios will outlive Bungie
>>571907370basically because> we hate Halo now
Halo haters and 343 haters fighting over who can suck more cocks
>>571907709Yeah, T r A i T o R s
>>571907370Because they were petulant manchildren (fuck you dad you can't tell me to make a game!) up until Reach development where they finally figured out they weren't 4 early 20's guys in the basement anymore.
>shitnfinite everytimewhy doesn't this woman just play 5 at least, or Reach, or the first Halos?
>>571907652>Maybe they were scared of being forced to keep making Halo forever.It was actually about Microsoft owning the Halo IP. They didn't want MS to own Destiny.
>>571908350Because women don't play old stuff, they want to seem current, and/or they don't feel nostalgia like men do
>>571908350You say this, but our must successful game nights in the past years where the ones where we played Infinite. When MCC is played it's always a struggle to get a lobby full, meanwhile Infinite is double full.
They should have had Blur make the Campaign Evolved cutscenes
>>571908957It comes with seniority.I still have yet to earn my... stripes.
I cannot with this fucking book. It's like the guy spent 99% on world building and characters, he selected so many great ones and places, only to come up with the turdiest fucking story one could think of.
>>571897776Leak more cut halo content like you did a few years ago.
>>571909272That's a really cool name for a book.

>>571907652>halo 1 development>game kept changing genres every 6 months>no actual game existed until late 2000/early 2001 (b30 was their first level/test bed and that came into existence in october 2000)>big rush in 2001 to actually put a game together despite technically developing it since 1998>halo 2 development>keep working on a dead end lighting system that they knew won't work but keep hoping they'll suddenly figure it out>they once again don't have a game as of june 2003>big fucking rush again to make the game in a year>kills all your non-halo projectsIt's still funny decades later you still hear news about Bungie being a fucking mess.
>>571909968>(b30 was their first level/test bed and that came into existence in october 2000)QRD on Halo's campaign development?
>>571909810It's not bad, it's just the main story that isn't what it should be. The characters are racing to get to the mcguffin (the Lithos) before the bad guys do.
We are watching more Romeo in a bit.
Cortana went too far.
>>571909272>>571910354Aren't most of the 343 era Halo books written by Star Wars comic writers that needed a gig?
>>571910826go back
>>571911278disneywars writers all deserve the rope for forcing mediocrity. If you hate nerds that much than dont fucking work on fictional media you retards its that simple.
>>571910265>quickCan't really be done. But we do have some of their internal documentation from the time so I didn't pull those dates out of my ass.
so halo 2 with the lighting working right and not rushed would look something like fear or doom 3?like stencil shadows?
>>571910265>QRD on Halo's campaign development?Didn't start 'till late in 2000.Apparently they started with 40 mission ideas, kept cutting it down.We have a spreadsheet last updated January 2001 with 17 missions. Most resemble final missions, but a bunch didn't make it. Most ideas got folded into other missions. Some got reused in later games.Maps got played backwards to get the game finished.
>>571912454I see it.
Sneed me Seymore
>>571912310>Apparently they started with 40 mission ideas, kept cutting it down.I strongly doubt that existed in any capacity beyond "whiteboard scribbles". Like Forerunner Tank for H2.
the fuck are graveminds anyway?
>>571913303Hivemind of the beings the flood consumed
>>571913367C40/Two Betrayals gameplay outline is funny.>we dunno lolNo wonder it blatantly ended up being B40 but backwards.
>>571912259WJHRBWJSJBSHWUAKWBEUWJSBD
Erm ok?
>>571909968they were always a messHalo was lightning in a bottleBungie was extremely overambitious in every project they have ever worked on besides Halo 3, in which they were if anything not ambitious enough
>>571913683how is it a hivemind when it does seem to have a mind of its own? It's just a selfish alien consuming all life in a planet and growing into a unique being.
>>571914052All the knowledge and brainpower of the consumed gets put into one "gravemind". Gravemind thinks it's giving the creatures it consumes eternal peace
>finally reveal what the endless are (in a book)>Oh I know, let's start this story over from the beginning!This shit really is the One Piece of videogames
>>571914336nah that's just what it says
>>571914336There's one of the stories in that new book where we literally see the gravemind subverting until he finally has a desire to convert more people. Kinda creepy ngl. I think it was "Saturn Devouring His Son"
>>571914836I believe him
>>571914965WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>571914908*subverting a guyIt's the spartan with the destroyed helmet that they put in the cover. That story was unsettling.>>571914836no, no. It's true. They behave like a colony. But so do the Created.Let me repeat this shit to you. 343 has decided to introduce robots that do the exact same shit as the Flood (and what the Didact was doing) in this series.The book they have for next year will already feature these new enemies.
>>571908350>>571908957Because contrary to bungietard revisionism, infinite is a fun, well balanced game, and was recognised as such on release. The ant-sprint tards are a vocal minority and always have been lest we’d have seen halo 1-3 being the most played on MCC over the years, and not reach. People abandoned 4 because of loadouts and ordnance drops, and because it looked like shit. People abandoned 5 because of the garbage campaign, P2W big team, the internet hate train, and because it looked like shit. People abandoned infinite because it was buggy and took forever to add content. Sprint and advanced mobile were only ever hated on the dogshit we call the internet. But at the end of the day if a game was fun and looked good, people would play it.
>>571915440(you)
Safina... didn't make it back to Earth.
>>571915440Reading
>>571915440Isn't 3 bigger? I know those 2 are way bigger than the rest, always though 3 had the edge though
>>571915440Forced.
>>571908350She's got some good BOOBS
Severan will save this franchise.
>>571915440Cut content too for 5. Delayed forge, no split screen, no big team, no infection, no custom games, only strongholds, slayer, and CTF on release. No firefight or at least spartan ops. Loot box customisation too. All valid criticism. But the advanced mobility hate was just a symptom of influencers looking for more reasons to hate on the game though.
>>571915990Stop samefagging and go back to halocirclejerk
>>571915621No. MCC MP is basically just reach if you don’t filter it out of the matchmaking. Has been for a while.
yeeeah, look at all these Halo niggas linking up in this bitch today

>>571916473GRRRRRR
>>571915206nothing 343 does has any relevance because they just drop it next game>the book they haveLOL
For me, it's the hologram. The most fun ability in Reach.
>>571916341>But…Reach has sprint…still the only game in the series to make it work somehowStill the worst bungie halo tho
No, this is Halo
>>571916580>For me, it's the hologram. The most fun ability in Reach.
nigga named xeelee
hes angry
>>571916214yeah? they don't care much
>The gravemind will devour planet after planet across space. It will continue evolving until it becomes a unique existence. A God.
Every Halo Infinite review on release:>yeah this game is really fun but it’s very buggy and it’s missing content. Let’s hope the devs are able to quickly fix the bugs and add the content it needsBungie tards:>Halo infinite dies>Halo infinite has sprint>Coincidence? I think not>Possible other factors? Huh?

It's really funny seeing people on twitter go >MS GET JASON JONES ON THE LINE GET HIM BACK TO HALO NOW!!!!Since his role/title is mentioned in the ones that got laid off today.
Wake me. When you need me.
>gayson monesfuck no
Were it so feasable.
Were it so coerced.
>feasable
jason jones is like zero from mgs. he turned evil off screen
>off screen
i miss the old internet, at least 4chan still resembles the old wild west internet somewhat
Videogame developers used to be nerds, REAL nerds that would read just about any book. Nowadays nerds consume mostly fiction.
>>571920142most video games are heavily influenced by all kinds of fiction
@Cortana is this true?
The great rizzing waits for no one.
>>571920142According to da 'cord, Halo is about Moby Dick.
I think Halo is more like Treasure Island, but that's just me.
Imagine being made redundant from the company you founded lol
lmao
>>571918343yeah, the idea that you can just get old talking heads who worked on the first games back and they can replicate the utter chaos of those games' development today and get the same product is pretty dumb
i hate halocan i have a job now 343?
>>571908350Looks like she's having a good time.
Jason Jones, the fag, didn't even want to work on Halo 2, and he had almost no dev involvement in the games that came after. His true child is that disgusting excuse for a franchise called destiny.
>>571925746>halo 2 dev commentary>marty and joe talking about how hard x or y was to pull off and the work it took>jason jones "idk, did it? was i even there for that?"
