>>722202856by helping it die
>>722203975how would you make out with it
>>722204069very carefully
None of you retards seem to know how to fix Halo. Remake may actually do it since it's correcting most of Halo CE's problems and translating all of that for future non-remake games. I swear you faggots aren't gamers, like at all.
Why are Elite women interested in humans?
>>722204069
>>722204331There's literally not a single female Elite in any of the games hmofaggot sperg
>>722204340
>>722204603there's one in halo 5, but she only ever talks to you through the radio
>>722203086Because they have nothing else. 343 went out their way to ruin Cortana for everybody so all they have left is sexualized xenos.
>MultiplayerJust don't charge for fucking colors jesus christ who thought this was a good idea? Merit-based armor unlocks. If microtransactions are ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY just make them for unique patterns or textures. Like, a weathered texture or one that's more matte. Hell, they already had something like that with the alts in Halo 5. Just do that but leave full customization in. Bring back the fucking playable elites. Stop with that "this is a spartan story" bullshit. People don't play halo's multiplayer for a story. Let us play as elites. Hell, it's already canon that Elites run the combat simulations alongside spartans sometimes, it's not like there's not an in-universe reason for them to be there. Honestly keep infinite's gameplay, there are some flaws that can be ironed out, but honestly Infinite's the best that the gameplay has been in awhile. My main complaints that I would fix, though: >Bring back movement momentum, you can't just snap left and right on a dime>Friendly fire is back on>Player collision for the love of godAlso, a nice feature, I think would be to have a customization sub-menu for team-specific color schemes, and limit your color selection to colors unique to that team.>CampaignThey've kind of fucked it too hard to unfuck it after infinite's massive back-pedalling. The endless were a stupid concept, and now it's too late for them to go "um actually nevermind that's not the plot" because they already did that with the stupid shit they did with Cortana.Best they can do is have it be that mid-way through the next game Atriox just fucking destroys the endless out of nowhere and cements himself as the new villain because he's the single best villain that 343 has done.
>>722202856What do female elites smell like again? There is a canon scent, but I forgot it already.
>>722204603>hmofaggot spergSeethe more, 0r0
>>722204715>so all they have left is sexualized xenos.you say that like it's a bad thing
>>722204783Kys furfag
>>722202856Make master Chief canonicaly straight.
>>722203487it is shocking how they donβt do this. I would love Halo X-com or Left4Dead even if mediocre
>>722204939They already did that in the show where he fucked the Covenant girl in front of Cortana
>>722203487>>722204947They tried that
>>722204167because it's a coomer threadbut seriously?port a halo game to a nintendo systemI've always felt like halo and nintendo fans have an unspoken overlapthere are several reasons why I think this1.halo ds.there was the halo ds hoax/proof of concept years before halo had major fan content on the psp2.halo's violence.halo is not an extremely violent and graphic franchise, compared to something like doom or quake I think it has a better chance of being adopted by the nintendo fanbase and is on par with metroid in terms of graphic content, which leads me to my next point3.the overlap between halo and metroid.both are inspired by iconic scifi like the 1980's the thing remake and the first alien moviethey both involve armored warriors fighting through strange alien worlds
>>722204723>They've kind of fucked it too hard to unfuck it after infinite's massive back-pedallingThey saved the series, normalfag. A video game is its gameplay, shit like 4 and 5 is why your Xbox console is dead. No one plays an FPS game to play a movie. All they need to do from a gameplay standpoint, is make corrections to Infinite's since it was close, for a plot, keep it simple and deal with the plotpoints set up in Infinite. Take the good gameplay elements of the Halo series and mash it into the game. Make the campaign worth the money spent and make it feel like a proper singleplayer FPS game since both singleplayer and multiplayer are being split into their own games going forward.
>>722204783Did someone really put their gay porn oc into something like this LMAO no way you can't make this shit up furfags are so pathetic LOL
>>722204939He's been canonically straight since the first game, faggot.
>>722204331It's a mystery
>>722205384Why dox someone that just colored an image instead of the person that actually made it?
>>722205310Fuck Halo 2 and fuck you, fuck video games even going live action, that was always retarded, fuck games like Halo 4 and 5 which aren't real video games.
>>722205346anybody else really dislike when hmofa is treated like a fantasy substitute to raceplay?I just like anthro women and want a loyal anthro wife, I hate this ntr adjacent style of hmofa
>>722205548for it to be raceplay, there has to be another party to raceplay agaisntthere isn't, so it isn't
>>722205548it's BBC tards making a lateral move and i hate it, i want the star trek approach where aliens and other sapient species are just as much a bunch of unrepentant xenophiles as humans are
>>722205346You can tell that a spic made this
>>722202856retcon all the faggy shit
>>722205548Sorry most fetishists are BBC-zoomers and Indians now.
>>722205750and who are you?
>>722205643Star Trek is gay and the aliens in it are assholes that should drop dead.
>>722205824I'm the dude.
>>722204167Remake will solidify its demise by raping a good game forever
>>722204715>They have nothing elseI have what i want and i draw it
>>722204340There better be fucking more of this.
>>722205969why do i carewhy do you care
>>722205905Well I think you're a big boy.
>>722204340eyelashes clipping and rendering artifacts completely ruin the immersion
>>722205218A game that's supposed to have a story fumbling that story is exclusively propped up by its gameplay. A game can absolutely have both, and Halo has already proven that multiple times. Infintie was fucking great in both gameplay and story up until they set up the endless as a concept.It's still the absolute best overall campaign that 343 has made for themselves so far, though. But that doesn't mean it was good storytelling to go "uhhh the ending of the last game got resolved off-screen now" and ended with "here's our new OCs who will be the next villains and they're the biggest, baddest, worst things ever, even worse than the lfood!" The game made a big deal about its story, just because the gameplay was good does not mean it shouldn't be judged for the story it tried to sell itself on.
>>722205548youre gay
>>722205548it's emotionally damaged or stunted peoplegod forbid you just have a cute non human wife you like to cuddle and fuck and spend time with
>>722206406i think it's more emotionally stunted to want a "non-human" wife, dude
>>722206467and then you double down by filtering that desire through the BBC porn you watched to substitute for lack of real life relationships
>>722206532is that what i said?kill yourself furry, hmofa fucks are such pathetic people holy shit
>>722202856By increasing the size of all female spartan asses by 30%.
>>722205917>fixing the slow ass movement speed>fixing the annoying repetition>adding more weapons, vehicles, and levels>increase enemy variety>just the Master Chief>more levels than the original game>bridging the gap between Halo 1 and Halo 2>improvements to everything>PC release, PlayStation release, possible Switch release, a replacement to the dying Xbots>singleplayer-only with Coop, both couch and onlineIt's going to save the series and give it new life.
>>722205090Kino. Shame it never got a proper sequel
why is there always someone seething about hmofa in these type of threads?
>>722206067
>>722206652None of that will happen lol. Its just gonna be gwafix and rtx
>>722206176A game's story is meant to be simple to give you a goal. An important story element that deals with the main character should be a new gameplay element, like a gimmick. If it's not a gimmick made to add something to the gameplay, then it has no right to be in the game. Halo 4 is a primary example of this great problem. It's a poorly written story that belongs in a novel. If you're going to give me a rampant Cortana, then you better give it to me as a gameplay gimmick that could help or hinder me thus making me question should I trust my long-time partner or toss her aside and do what I want. You could tell that the Cortana rampancy plot had no business being there. It also takes the worst nonsense from Halo 2-Reach, and makes it ten times worse because they pulled it straight from Call of Duty.
>>722206837retard
>>722207089It got leaked that it will, lmao. Halo is a gameplay-focused series now.
>>722206605Make it 300%
>>722207261>le leak!maybe im just cynical, but i dont think so
>>722207261>343 gameplaylol, lmao
>>722207365That is also acceptable.
>>722206605>>722207365
>>722202856By doing literally anything else. Sure, put chief in the mech you saw in Halo: Legends, turn it into Warhammer 40k, introduce Hideo Kojima's 'on the nose' writing, turn using the Energy Sword into Dark Souls Combat.I seriously don't give a fuck what they do with this franchise anymore, it's dead. It's been dead. The biggest defenders of 343 are people who can only muster up "yeah, it was pretty good"Instead of consuming hours of machinima, books, Youtubers talking about the books if you weren't going to read them, MLG, forge maps with the squad at 2 AM, appreciating the aesthetic, the grounded military background.The only good thing 343 ever fucking did was Halo 4 Cortana
>>722202856The story should've re-focused into a post-cold war scenario. Before the Conventant the UNSC was a military dictatorship that wiped out all resistance. (The UNSC literally made the Spartans to stamp out resistance groups but the Convenant just happened to show up at the perfect time.) This is an aspect of the Halo world that is never really touched upon in the games. Halo 5 was honestly the perfect time to touch upon this and move on, but they refuse to move on from "Spaceman shoots aliens". With the Convenant (mostly) gone the UNSC now has to refocus it's efforts on fighting rebellious human groups while also dealing with Covenant remnants.
>>722204167>fucked up Halo 4>fucked up Halo 5>fucked up MCC>fucked up InfiniteYeah, I'm sure they're going to do a great job with the CE remake and not fuck it up like literally every single Halo game they have ever made.
>>722207776GRAAAAAA RAVEN SEX
>>722207776you forgot how they fucked up the original ce remaster
>>722207472Infinite was their best campaign gameplay. Only a non-gamer would hate it over Halo 4's and 5's campaigns, which aren't even real video games. If devs want to make movies so badly, get out of the game industry and go make a shitty movie no one is going to watch. Stop shitting up video games with their stank.
>>722207776They're no longer making the games
>>722207878>Infinite was their best campaign gameplay.A guy that shows up to work with shit in his hands every day coming in with gloves doesn't suddenly make him a good employee.
>>722207664>changed an already muscular female into a gorillaI've got news for ya
>>722203356Reboot the franchise for all platforms
>50% of the original Spartan-IIs were washed out by the augmentation surgery>some died, some were crippled, some needed a few more corrective surgeries before progressing, and some had to be cryogenically frozen in the hope that future medical technology could help them >30 years later, access to Covenant technology and the assistance of the Engineers allows for a few SIIs to be unfrozen and returned to duty >the custom player character is extremely young, knows nothing about the Covenant war, and has a direct connection to Master Chief as essentially their long lost sibling >setting is reintroduced to a new, younger audience as they set off to find and recover Master Chief (Halos 4-6 are retconned, everyone at 343i are summarily executed, their shills are beaten to death then fed to dogs) also marty is rehired to save him from becoming a politician
>>722207878>Comparing Infinite to 4 and 5This is poop, but it's got less words than poopie, so it's better. And look, this shit has sprinkles on it!You could've literally said that to me, and you'd be effectively saying the same thing.
>>722208232>(Halos 4-6 are retconned, everyone at 343i are summarily executed, their shills are beaten to death then fed to dogs)Based. Universe saved with this one simple trick.
>>722208005>>722208264True but they still learned how to make a video game, despite it needing a lot of work.
>>722207664Garbage.
Wort wort wort.
>>722208232Fund it.
>>722208232It's over dude, give it up. Series has only three options, soft-reboot (we got that/we're getting that), full reboot meaning erase every Halo game in the series starting with Halo CE, or kill the series. You don't continue Bungie's Halo because that ended with Reach. The series went full circle there which is why Halo 4 soft-rebooted the universe in the first place.
>>722208407Hell, 343 retconned their own lore every game.>Cortana leads an AI rebellion in 5, things are kind of getting interesting finally, game ends.>Infinite, Cortana dies off screen. Blows up the brute homeworld, a place we never visited, that changed nothing. The UNSC is...fine, I guess? The Guardians all go back into dormancy, and nothing really matters all that much.Fucking hell, you don't even get to kill the Big Bad Aatriox the game was hyping, just like you never got to have an actual fight with Locke.
>>722208796did they ever explain why there's a dead guardian on the surface of zeta halo?
>>722208514How about this?
>>722208894Much better.
>>722208796>just like you never got to have an actual fight with LockeWho gives a shit about this, if it's not gameplay, why is it there?
License the IP for cheap for a few years, get hype back up, then piggyback off whatever indie studio has success
>>722204167>wahh CE needs sprint and a BR
>>722208232I hate you for saying this.Not because it's bad, but because it will not happen.
>>722208882Did they need to? My only disappointment is not having it explorable, couldn't give a shit about its story.
Human on alien is the purest form of love
>>722209035Most people consider Halo CE to be dated, it was hard to play back in 2001 and it's still hard to go back to now. Game started to fall off at the Assault on the Control Room level since that was everything the game had to offer in that one level.
>>722208502A single towelhead in a mud hut can make a game with a bunch of assets from the Unreal store. I'm not giving 343 credit for doing the LITERAL-FUCKING-MINIMUM that is expected, like putting out a playable product. It's their fuckin' job, it's the very least they get paid for.You'd think that a flagship franchise funded by Microsoft wouldn't be so fucking piss, that Infinite launched without Forge or fucking Slayer, SWAT, and BTB in their own dedicated playlists.Bungie wrote the fucking blueprint, all 343 had to do was follow it, and they can't even manage that.
>>722209221>it was hard to play back in 2001lmao no
>>722209221CE is literally the best one, you are whacky
>>722209248>Bungie wrote the fucking blueprintAnd didn't give it to 343 which is why you got your content late and now, they have to transfer all their blam! code that matters into UE5 because it's a better engine that would allow them to shit out content for you faster while getting launch content out AT LAUNCH.
>>722208942That's my exact point. Locke should've been a goddamn fight. That would've been something interesting, or at the very least, different.You can keep that robotic ass cutscene, but let's at least fight him ffs.
>>722209276Yes, it was very fucking repetitive.>>722209376True, but that isn't saying much. It was mediocre in 2001, the rest of the series just kept sucking harder with each game release.
>>722209385It's only as issue because 343 uses contractors not in house developers.
>>722202856You can't save Halo. The corporate culture at Microsoft is incompatible with it. The reason Halo was so good was because Bungie wasn't an "FPS studio". They just made games they liked and wanted to make. Sure they had Marathon, but they also had amazing RTS games in Myth, and an amazing third person brawler in Oni.You can never recreate what made Halo good, as Halo. It'd have to be an entirely unrelated studio releasing something new and original. If I absolutely had to try, though? Hypebeast it up and release an updated MCC on Playstation. And release a new TV series that retells the events of CE from the perspective of the crew of the Pillar of Autumn.Then drop the CE remake, but make it properly different from the original, with entirely new levels and progression. But the gameplay has to be focused only on being a good console/controller shooter. Less auto aim, but slow down the movement and really focus on the original combat triangle.
>>722209481Halo still mogs your boomerslop
>>722209397>You can keep that robotic ass cutsceneNo, you should not, even ex-Bungie called this out that confrontations should all be gameplay and nothing more. Bungie were about to make the Arbiter and Brute fight in Halo 2's final level a cutscene but they realized that was retarded and made it gameplay. 343 finally realized this was crap by Infinite and made all confrontations boss fights in the game, doesn't matter if the fight is good or bad, the player must always be the one to kill the villain not the character in a cutscene.
halo game where you play as marines and get instakilled by any covie weapon>needler>you get horribly maimed and probably lose your fingers and chunks of flesh>plasma weapons>you die or if you get bodyshot you have to peel your armor off before you get horribly maimed>energy swordif you're lucky you lose an arm and can't use your gun
>you will never feel the gorilla-glue grip of a sangheili's vaginal muscles
>>722205548Isn't hmofa like 90% brown zoomers now?
>>722209560Halo mogged them so hard it killed itself, lol
>>722209752Murder suicide is based
>>722209736It's full of discord and twitter retards now because faggots wouldn't stop advertising it off site
>>722209485It's been a problem for the house developers since Halo fucking 4. They've been wanting to shift to UE since that game. The feminist cunt who used to run the studio into the ground kept saying no. Women can't lead for shit.
>>722209385>And didn't give it to 343Okay, you're going to piss me off. 343 was literally a support studio for Bungie while they made Halo Reach. They were there to study how to make a Halo game. That was the entire point of 343 even being in the same room as them. 343 then turns around and goes>We hired people who hated Halo!You can't create this type of dumbass.
>>722209736im going to let you in on a little secret, if youre not creating the content you like yourself its invariably going to be 90% people that arent you
I need a damaged cripple spartan 3 gf
>>722202856Unironically drop the UNSC and human focusInsurrectionists are the dumbest part of the lore and drag down the entirety of halo loreI dont care about humansI dont care about ballistic weaponsGive me a fucking covenant /sangheli exclusive game
>>722209869>Okay, you're going to piss me off. 343 was literally a support studio for Bungie while they made Halo Reach. They were there to study how to make a Halo game. That was the entire point of 343 even being in the same room as them. 343 then turns around and goesThen 343 are fucking retarded. They're an example of a AAA studio not being able to handle an engine passed on to them nor create one themselves because they were too lazy to make Slipspace a whole new engine from the ground up. They deserved the gutting that they received from Microsoft.>You can't create this type of dumbassYou can when your goal isn't to make video games. Microsoft's entire goal since the beginning of getting into the console space. They stupidly thought the gamers and dudebros they gained would stick around like sheep as they killed the brand for more non-gamers.
>>722209681I emphasized that "can" more in my head than I typed it out. I should've said>You CAN keep itOr>You *can* keep itNot that it should be there at all. But I mean, with this more narrative cutscene oriented bullshit during that time, I hardly think it was avoidable by some fuck up team like 343
>>722210092gay
>>722204167wort wort
>>722210160Those retards could have avoided it if they were in it to make a video game. I hate Microsoft and Sony for slowly building games up to the point where they become shitty movies where you just move forward to awesome.
>>722210165Go suck on a magnum barrel you fag, i bet you want a game where youre the little bitch boy faggot marine on the ground having trouble dealing with gruntsYou're the kind o fperson that wants a movie about capeshit but from the perspective of some nobody citizenI wouldn't be surprised if you have honestly thought to yousefl "oh gee i really wanna see more krillin and yamcha in DBZ"
>>722210092Stupid, drop the Covenant, they were defeated in Halo 3, why am I still fighting them? The Banished are just red Covenant. Introduce completely new aliens and keep Halo's gameplay. Don't bring back the Flood. The UNSC stays, Master Chief needs their equipment.
>>722210576>i bet you *projection*>you're the kind if person who *projection*>i wouldn't be surprised if you *projection*didn't need the life story bro, just calling you gay
>>722208232By god it's just crazy enough to work
I wouldn't. Let it rest, you cannot undo the damage that has been wrought and it's best to finally lay it to rest forever.
>>722210437I don't what people call it, I just call it what it is "walk'n'talk">Hold up to slowly walk while a character gives you expositionI will gladly take the late ps2/360 era of obscene QTEs over that shit any day of the week. At least then, it felt like I was actually doing something.
make an xcom clone
>>722210931I'll take it back further to just the 3rd-6th gen, games peaked there, problems started during the 7th gen.
>>722210815>Introduce new aliensYou already monkeypawed this with the goddamn promethians. That shit sucked bad.
>>722210815>Don't bring back the Flood.boooooooo
>>722210576zzzz gay
>drop the innies>drop the covies>drop the unscuhhhh who's left
>>722211157the flood
>>722211032Halo 4 kept the Covenant, didn't even properly integrate the Prometheans into the Halo sandbox because 343 were being lore faggots, and it was a complete shitshow. 343/Halo Studios now giving a shit about the Halo gameplay sandbox makes me interested in when they finally give the Endless a proper introduction that should have been in Infinite. You make them work with the sandbox. Bungie said that if it wasn't fun to fight, they remove it from the game until it is. That's one less 343 finally learned at least with Infinite which is why the Crushers got cut.
>>722211210>game where you control the floodthis is just turning into avp2
>>722211271Imagine having any hope for this dogshit studio after they've been fucking the games and fucking the fans for ten years.
Halo should've ended with 3 chronologically.
>>722211042They were defeated in Halo 3, stop bringing old factions back for nostalgia. Completely kills the impact of a game when they faction you wiped out just decided to prop up again all the time.
>>722211271*lesson
>>722211360>They were defeatedThey by definition cannot be defeated. They're present on practically every Forerunner installation and can keep returning from minimal biomass.
>>722202856artist is GuiMonTag
>>722211347The fans don't seem to know what they want. But in all seriousness. Yes, because they started thinking like an indie/AA studio and focusing on Halo's gameplay and sandbox over story which is why I'm interested again. I really hate the 7th and 8th generation of gaming and all it brought into the industry when comes to complete laziness and hatred of gameplay for video games.
>>722210815>Take out the single thing that defined halo as a franchiseFUCK YOU FUCK ALL OF YOU FUCKING CALL OF DUTY BANDWAGONING FAGGOTS I WAS THERE DAY 1 I ONLY CARED ABOUT HALOBECAUSE IT HAD ALIENSNOT IN FUCKING SPITE OF IT WHAT THE FUCK IS SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND ABOUT I WANT SCI FI NOT FAGGOT ASS MODERN NIGGER HUMAN FAGGOT NORMIES
>>722211463They were defeated, if you bring them back, you make them something small. They already had their time as a main faction, they don't need it again. I feel that remaking Halo CE-3 is enough to finally give us a modern rendition of the Flood without a need to bring them back going forward.
>>722211626Halo defines what the series is and that can be corrected by just making Chief "Halo". At that point, you can finally move on from the rings and have Chief just stop something that threatens humanity and the galaxy for mainline games.
>>722211628The Flood is a cataclysmic threat, if they come back you can't just make them small.
>>722202856take it away from 343 or whatever they're calling themselves and give it to one of the off half dozen FPS studios they bought in the ABK buy out
>>722211724I'm not going to begin to try to explain to you how retarded that is in the context of halo's lore (343i not canon)
>>722203356This. I think the problem is that they milked the fuck out of Halo during the 360. What did we get again? Halo 3, ODST, Reach, Halo Wars 1 and 2, and 4?
>>722211724beyond fucking retarded slop consuming cattle brain.fuck you
HereΒ΄s how to le fix halo!!!11!blah blah blah blah.halo is fucking dead nigger thereΒ΄s no saving it, thatΒ΄s it.3 Ended it, 343 dug it up just to shoot it in the back of the head again.shut up and do something productive like.POSTING MORE ELITE B U N D A
>>722211735Then you don't bring them back. Your flood return in the Halo CE, 2, and 3 remakes which finally gives us Flood in the modern era with their Blightlands, give us a proper Gravemind boss fight in one of those remakes, and you gave us all the Flood we need to move on from them in the newer games.
>>722211867
But what if the grave mind was hot and female
>>722202856Halo cannot be saved because it proceeds on its actual canon line.
>>722211519>I'm interested againThis is like wanting to go back to prison.
>>722211923Disagree.
there is no sauce because god doesn't want you to cum
>>722211923The Flood et al has never left. Chief succeeds at imprisoning it back, which is why the plot of 343 games happens as it does.
>>722211780How is that retarded? Metroid did it to move on from Space Pirates and Metroids, Half-Life did it, I mean are we fighting all the Xen aliens post-Half-Life 1? Quake 2 has you fighting completely different enemies over Quake 1. Halo isn't Mario, Sonic, or Zelda. It's a continuing story. Factions die, series needs to move on from its past already while keeping its gameplay loop.
>>722202856I don't think it needs to continue. How much more can you do with it? The game has been the same loose strokes since Halo CE. Its a great formula that I have replayed with friends many times but I think you just need a new IP.
>>722211796You're the very definition of cattle. >we defeated the Covenant and Flood in Halo 3 what should we do now?>I KNOW let's bring dead factions back in the next gameFucking Turok shifted to new factions right after the first game and again with the third one. You faggots are retarded. The Covenant and Flood aren't the fucking gameplay loop. How many Halo games are they going to keep using the stupid rings over and over again. It's the same repeated fucking plotline from 2001. If you're going to keep using the Halo name, shoved that shit on the Master Chief and call it a day already.
>>722212359>The Covenant and Flood aren't the fucking gameplay loopFor the first three it for sure is.
>>722212120That would be a good point if anything in the actual original halo trilogy was fleshed out or completed during developmentI love those games but you can't honestly sit there and tell me that they are a great representation of whats actually supposed to be going on there, from the books, to the cut content, to halo 2's GIMPED campaign, to halo 3 entirely missing a whole act's worth of missions and contextThats like saying Kingdom Hearts never needs to go back to anything pre 3 now because the nort saga is done
Not all stories can be continued, because a story without end is not a story anymore, it's history.And writing history is a lot harder.
>>7222122822 words destroy any "Halo story is over" fagsMendicant Biasand where was hesupposed to be????zeta halo??????? which was supposed to be COVERED in flood????FUCK 343 and FUCK halo shitfinite
>>722207982Its still the same fucking company, just with a different name and less employees.
>>722212546Fighting elsewhere. Those are echoes.
The Covenant isn't a thing anymore but it's not like the aliens are just going to fucking disappear
>>722212627You're an idiot MB is ON zeta halo and controls it but 343 ignored it because they dont give a fuck
>>722203356Reach is good and I'm tired of people saying it's not.
>>722212636Or literally any Forerunner installation, or all that bad blood, especially since Cortana felt like having a woman moment while pulling some practical jokes.
>>722202856guhhh more
>>722204603oh yeah explain this then
>>722208894hnghhh moar
>>722212068>>722212094Get over it. If they wanted to bring the Flood back, they should have done that, but they didn't. Bringing the Flood back in full remakes fulfills the whole bringing the Flood back. They're no longer making this for Halo fans anymore. They're not going to keep repeating the same sob story when you can't recapture your first time playing Halo CE. You want to do that, you need to move on from the first three games' shadow.
>>722213003You sound like a seething 343 employee.
>>722212426It's not, they're replaceable. Halo is a sandbox game meaning, you have your iconic UNSC weapons, keep only SOME members of the Covenant, bring new enemy factions to Halo that brings in new weapons and vehicles that replaces the Covenant's completely with some even having similar gameplay elements like a sticky grenade, bring in secondary faction, if you need to, that's the big big bad that uses everyone's weapon or just don't bother with that last one.
>>722213115More likely than you think, they hired thousands of incompetent retards and some of them are bound to use this shithole.
>>722205346moar
>>722212724>he thinks constructs can't abdicate if necessaryHe was its keeper, he isn't anymore. He's on the Ark.
>>722202856How good are the SFM?
>>722212549Not exactly, the old leadership got the boot from the ground up, why do you think they're no longer making the games like they used to? The current leadership are publishers and designers, not developers. The campaigns will get quality bumps for being campaign-only games made by third party AA studios. AAA was garbage since the beginning.
>>722213115Not at all. Even Bungie stated that if you want to bring Halo back, you do not try to continue where it ended, you REBOOT IT. Meaning you erase everything, and start over from scratch. If you can't do that then you kill the series and make something new.
>>722212442Remakes will flesh them out, no need to bring them back afterwards. Shit is starting to get redundant. The Covenant returning in Halo 4 is just one of the reason people dropped the series after Reach.
>>722202856stop trying to appeal to the oldfags
nothingas long as 343's incharge of the IP then we're never getting anything remotely decent.Even the latest indevelopment game has sprint apparently, which already breaks the cardinal rule of not putting that shit into Halo.For some reason, despite Halo Reach being the most controvesial Bungie game in the series and community common consensus that it was the turning point for quality ; they still refuse to not add sprint, bloom or any of that shit.Even Infinite pushed alot of Halo 4/5 mechanics while secretly masqaurading as a "classic" experience but missing fundemental sandbox features like Grenade Jump or physics.
>>722214575This>>722214628It doesn't matter who takes the IP, it will remain shit. It's better to fully reboot the series from the beginning or kill it entirely. Gaming needs fresh new series over repeating the 7th and 8th gens forever.
>>722214769No. I think if they whored it out to different studios then there's a possibility we could get decent spin-off games.Like imagine a Dawn Of War 4 type Halo game? Or a full fledged Fire-Fight game with extraction mechanics?
>>722205548Blame the retards who unironically shit themselves in anger whenever someone would say something retarded like "built for BBC"The meme has lived for so long because it legitimately makes retards here go into an autistic frenzy. Meanwhile normal people are laughing because the bait is so effective.
Alien fuckers, give me a canonical reason as to why a female sangheili would fuck a human. Extra points if you can give a reason for the other covie races.
>>722215070oh you're acting like a cuck faggot as a jokehahaha
>>722215164I got one for Jackals: They are Space Pirates and will whatever it takes to steal money.
>>722215052Warhammer has a far more interesting stories, characters, and background so you can do all sorts of games in different genres. Halo's story is nothing in comparison to Warhammer there is no desire to branch off like that.
>>722212736why would they say its not?
>>722215052Those would be hit and miss. Even Hardy LeBel, believes the series should just get a full reboot because Bungie thought the expanded universe was stupid. I think the expanded universe is stupid. This shit worked for Warhammer because that's what it was going to be since the beginning. Halo was always supposed to be an FPS sandbox game. Seriously, fuck Microsoft and their loretism.
>>722212830
>>722215329Because they grew up on 3 so that's the peak of the series and Reach isn't a mainline title with the chief as the MC.Also some people are really upset over Reach being a sendoff title by bungie.
>>722204167so they are removing the flood?
>>722215329It definitely has the worst multiplayer pre-halo 4The space section is fun though
>>722215320In spite of that, there's still some potential variety. a Halo RTS that wasn't designed for joysticks and refrigerator hardware can still work, or some form of fire fight game, helldivers copythe problem is that microsoft cant put anything halo related without shoehorning master chief at the forefront of it all.
>>722215404>Reach isn't a mainline title with the chief as the MC.and thats a good thing. chief keef is overrated as fuck, bro barely talks and if he does its to act like le badass or simp for cortana
>>722215438They're going to rework them to not be repetitive and actually fun to fight like they did the Brutes in Infinite. They'll probably even make them infect the wildlife too.
>>722214575When the fuck have they tried to appeal to the original fans?
>>722215164>Alien fuckers, give me a canonical reason as to why a female sangheili would fuck a human.I imagine female sangheili would only want to fuck spartans or odst's, as they're the exceptional warriors of the human race.
>>722203356odst armor is cool as fuck, i'm glad they collabed with helldivers 2 so more people could see it
>>722203720Wheeze.jpg
>>722215509Not him, but Halo is the series made to dumb down other genres, they succeeded for several years with the FPS genre but failed with the RTS genre. RTS was the last genre Microsoft tried to pussify, but they just couldn't do it.
>>722215164The women get wet at the idea at killing their men meaning a human killing a Sangheili is stronger warrior worthy of breeding with. Or you could go the route of them actually enjoying the feeling of being loved instead of just being married off for political reasons.
>>722215451Honestly ignoring custom games, 3's multiplayer scene was worse.
Alien fuckers are just LARPing musclefags. It's weird that they don't just stick with the Spartan girls.
>>722215512Chief was never meant to be compelling, he was great in Halo CE-3 because he was just a mostly silent badass that shot shit. Gave that feeling that you were him. 343 being the incredible retards that they were decided that he needed to be a character and that blew up in their faces.
>>722215836Because fucking aliens is hot
>>722204167They need to seriously expand Halo beyond just being a first person shooter. The RTS thing with Halo Wars was cool but they should seriously attempt a Halo RPG.
>>722202856NO Master ChiefNO CovenantNO UNSCALL characters must be black disabled trans women The new bad guy is UNSC FASCISTS led by Presidend THONALD DRUMPF
>>722215903Fat assed sangheli women owe me human men sex.
>>722215964I rather they not, I don't Halo to dumb down RPGs too.
>>722216021>owe me human men sex.
>>722216080*want
>>722202856By putting it out of its misery
>>722215739>Halo is the series made to dumb down other genresSays who?HW was only shit because they built it for console retardslicensing it out to a smaller studio to make a good spinoff rts game like iron harvest or something would actually be a good thing, it just wouldn't be as bombastic and financially rewarding as pumping out garbage ass games like they have been for 15 years now.
>>722216080That ship already sailed a long time ago
>>722215964>RPGPlay whom, exactly? A spook ala Alpha Protocol?
Give it to any stuido besides 343. Its fucking crazy that they were handed the cash cow of the 00s. HALO. Yet they fucked it up. They only way to save halo is to make a game like reach. Not fucking gay like halo 4, 5, or infinite. It needs to be a FPS. Not a online casino cod clone, but a single player fps. A new IP not a remake, because I and fellow halo fans have played all the non gay halos for 1000s of hours. Any burnt out 45 year old halo fan could write a new game with new Spartans and it would do better what ever dumb retard at 343 could do. No fucking gay Spartans, no gay writing, no gay graphics, no gay anything. They made everything so fucking gay and i can't fucking take it. When I played infinite I wanted to eat a plasma grenade. Fuck it was so fucking gay. In 50 years they will make documentarys on 343 and Microsoft on how not to run a business. If I'm still alive I will tell them all how they made halo so fucking gay.
>>722206605Not that I'd be opposed to female Spartans having first descendant levels of thick, but I'd be happy if they at least brought back Reach levels of shapeliness
>>722215164Really Jackals and Grunts would probably be the only Covenant species to actually fuck human men
>>722215735
>>722216878I feel like fucking a grunt should have the same punishment put in place as fucking a retard.
>>722215164We killed all their men
>>722202856Fat Elite men with big bellies with jiggle physics
>>722216869>First Descendant levels of thickToo small
>>722217117Nah, that's not appealing at all.
>>722217171How come?
>>722216182Microsoft but the good news about the death of the Xbox console is with Microsoft putting more interest into PC gaming, maybe, just MAYBE, they'll start making their games more complicated for the PC gaming audience instead of dumbing it down for their Xbox controller.>>722216259Did Microsoft set the seeds again with Fable?
>>722217263Too big, begins to completely warp and ruin the appeal of a woman in armor for me. Also just gets way too close to skirting the line that "thick" posters get where they start posting obese women. Sure, Spartan woman with big tits is good, but it can't come at the cost of just ruining how the armor is and making them unreliable as soldiers.
>>722204947>Left4DeadThat one kind of happened, check out Gravemind on the L4D2 workshop page
>>722217496Maybe they just get custom armour to suit.
>>722216940I look like this but I donβt say this.
>>722217664I guess, still doesn't look that appealing imo but you do you. If I had to ballpark my preference I'd say a Spartan with say Haydee-sized T&A would be good.
>>722217006It'd be even worse because Grunts really think humans are neatNot to mention grunts reproduce like rabbits...
>>722217963Yeah, but it's not like humans are compatible with anything that isn't another human.
>>722202856Expand the games beyond Chief/Cortana. They tried with ODST which was generally liked and then made a strategy game console exclusive and a two small twin stick shooters that nobody knows about.Make a Republic Commandos style game, an FPS with an NPC squad you give commands to, with marines on Harvest.Do a game based solely on the elites. I dunno why but something like a Ghost Recon/Splinter Cell game with the elite sounds hilariously fun.Do a space battle game. Either ships or something like the space battles in classic Battlefront.
>>722202856Make a new AA budget game in the style of the original trilogy.We have moved away from that type of gameplay for so long now that if they got started right now it would be just in time for the real start of the 2000s retro revival.
>>722217082That's gross
>>722217117You do you, but I personally really like that golden shoulder to waist to hip ratio on women's body's, it's immensely aesthetic and hot, and I feel like balloon bodies distracts from that too much
>>722218720For me if it's not 3:1 hip to waist minimum then it's too small
>>722218262Master Chief and Cortana isn't the problem, the nonsense started with Halo 4 because 343 thought people actually gave a crap about Halo's story which was never true. Problem with Halo is that the series is on repeat mode. People were tired of "Halo" after Halo 3, not Master Chief. People were sick and tired of fighting the Covenant with ODST and Reach not helping. When Halo 4 was coming, people were a little excited because it was a universe post-Covenant but that interest died the moment the Covenant got shoehorned in again. Halo 4 pretty much killed a series that was already dying post-Halo 3. Bungie blew their load on repeating Halo CE's story twice with Halo 2 and 3. Series needs to dive deeper into its sandbox gameplay instead of keeping it babified, it needs to stop trying to characterize the Master Chief, and it needs to move on from Halo rings, the Covenant, and the Flood. Series has been stuck on these factions for too long. Mainline needs to make that plunge before spin-off games taking place during the Human-Covenant war possibly starring other characters can happen.
>>722218163Not with that attitude
halo dating sim when
>>722218837a nice narrow waist and a shapely butt is all I need.also why the fuck can't we upload 4K webms yet, fuck this 1280p limit bs
>>722202856Dismantle 343/Halo Studios, hire modders to create an expanded version of Halo CE that incorporates all of the cut levels that got to any serious level of conception and a selection of cut content. Then do the same for Halo 2 and Halo 3.
>>722202856Get every Bungie/343 writer away from the script except Chris Schlerf.
>>722219685Why even bother with this when Halo Studios is leading development with an AA studio to do exactly this with the trilogy remakes?
>>722208232Would be pretty cool, sorta a Nero - Dante relationship between the new spartan-II and chief
>>722219834Fuck off, a video game is its gameplay, fuck the story. That's why 343's Halo was pure shit with Halo 4 and 5.
I don't understand, how can you enjoy normie trash like halo but also be degenerate enough to be attracted to these creatures?sure, artists give them tits and ass, but the face is pretty out there
>>722220086You sound like a faggot
>>722219907Well firstly, there is zero indication they are doing a remake that adds cut content/levels. Secondly, I would be proposing expanding the native games at a contemporary level of quality so they could all be executed on a pretty low budget.
>>722220086Gamers thought Halo was mediocre, general Halo fans dropped Halo after Halo 3, Halo "fans" dropped the series after Reach, Halo loretrannies dropped the series after Halo 5, Halo autists were the last ones that were left that stuck around and these come in all shape and sizes. It's a wonder why Microsoft plans to replace them with new fans on different platforms.
>>722219685>hire modders to create an expanded version of Halo CESPV is this but an immensely bloated slog because modders seem to not have a good sense of quality control or scope limitation
>>722220240There is, it was leaking like crazy for two years straight another one that was recently a couple of days ago. The remakes of CE-3 plan to bring back the cut content, fix the repetitions, fix bad gameplay decisions, bridging the gap between games. They're also doing what you just said on a significantly lower budget as Microsoft no longer plans to give out huge budgets for their games anymore. Basically, they're giving you everything you want and you're complaining about it.
>>722219957>Fuck off, a video game is its gameplay, fuck the story. That's why 343's Halo was pure shit with Halo 4 and 5."OH, a video game is gameplay!"Then why isn't it a bunch of mission level selections with no dialogue? Retard. You're the reason why this industry has such a fucking lowbar for writing. I'm sure that if you got a million games of "go here and shoot the thing" you'd never ask for anything else. Combat Evolved was actually a well told story. Bungie's other stories were ball cancer. Halo 4 sold better than every other Bungie game besides Halo 3.]
>>722220561The only credible leak we have about the remake is that its going to be a dual engine setup Unreal 5 graphics layer slop remaster
>>722219629What do you think about this one?
>>722220630>>722220561Oh also the version of BLAM its running on under the Unreal Graphics is a fork of the Reach engine, so it isn't going to play like CE at all.
>>722220637a tad bit too large for my tastes
>>722208232This would work 100%. The only issue I can maybe see is what the player would even be fighting. Flood are probably still hiding somewhere or in other installations, could also have remnants of the Covenant, or another new faction that is comprised of Covenant aliens because their leadership is totally killed and any warlord could rise up. No Banished though because their entire lore is fucking retarded.Also if you want to me specifically me happy, show Alpha-Nine in some mission or cut scene fully whole and Rookie doing something cool or just sleeping. Cement that gay faggot book as non-canon, nobody turned traitor or died.
>>722208232LOL, you think Bungie gave a fuck about the expanded universe lore.
>>722220689>so it isn't going to play like CE at allThat's the point, it's Halo's Metroid Zero Mission, a completely new game that retells and old story while adding new lore elements to it and making it fit with the series current lore. They don't care if old fans don't like it because they're breaking them off with this game.>>722220630Nope, there is more>UE5 up top with Reach-era blam! under, I don't know if this is the same as what they've been doing since the animation has been the same since Reach anyway>Chief will be able to sprint, slide, and clamber (this been known since technicalhalo on Twitter leaked it)>it will have old, cut, and new levels>same for weapons, vehicles, enemies>will bridge the gap between Halo CE and Halo 2, not ending after Chief blows up the ring>will lead to development of a Halo 2 remake and a Halo 3 remake which will both be added as DLC to this instead of separate releases>being made as Halo Studios's introduction to Unreal Engine>is being worked on by a European studio believe to be Splash Damage>Halo Studios will, starting with this, only lead the development of Halo projects, no longer develop them on their own, most of the work will be made by AA studios That's all that's known about these remakes and future projects.
>>722221261*an old
>>722221261Even if true, which I doubt, the Unreal 5 layer is going to fuck everything up
>>722216869>>722218720did spartan augmentation affect their breeding or nah?
>>722221318Not really, they're redesigning everything. This isn't like Halo CE Anniversary where they just dropped new graphics on top of the old game and called it a day, they're reworking the entire levels and geometry of the levels and game. It's a completely new game using assets from Project Foundry.
>>722219517I want to fuck femGrunts(niggers) with my BSC
>>722220949Halo 5 did a lot of things wrong but they at least got nice asses for the female Spartans. Its a shame that their one fucking win couldn't carry to Halo Infinite.
>>722221594Linda butt!
>>722219318>the series is on repeat modeHalo is about cycles. Of-course it shall only be about repeats.
>>722221415I'm not even talking aesthetically, the game is going to run like ass and stutter just like Oblivion Remastered.
>>722221594Halo 5 made the same mistake as Halo 4, making female Spartan-IVs for feminism. Female Spartans can be excused for Spartan-IIs and IIIs, but not IVs, that was stupid. Women, being in anyway equal to a man physically, bah!
>>722221832hey atleast they made them hot back then
>>722221789>Halo is about cyclesSo, Halo's already able to toss out the rings, perfect. Being cycles doesn't mean repeating the same enemy factions, it just means we need something to replace the Covenant's spot, and something to replace the Flood's spot because it's related to Living Time and the Precursors.
>>722221918They shouldn't have existed back then, they were added because of Bonnie and Kiki, fucking femicunts.
>>722221790They'll make it work, trust the plan
>>722221953>Living Time and the Precursors343 needs to be stopped. How can anyone think it's a good idea to change the Flood from space parasite zombies with a hivemind to angry brine shrimp made out of the Double Forerunners. Every time I see something about nu-Forerunner lore it makes them less and less interesting, you don't need to explain the ancient backdrop furnishings
>>722202856sangheli sex
>>722205090>never get to choose your faction colors
>>722202856Let him rot. Halo has shit gameplay and it's entirely propped up by nostalgiafags.
>>722202856Simply making a Halo game that removes every single thing that was inspired by CoD, starting with sprint.
>>722222213True, it did hurt Halo and turn it into another series. Look how well mysterious made the Half-Life series. I'm honestly more excited about Half-Life 3 over future Halo games, I'm just looking at Halo for the future gameplay potential of fighting giant bosses and getting the Warthog run back. Bungie's era of mysteries was better.
>>722221918This shit infuriates me especially because the gluteus maximus is the largest, heaviest muscle in the human body. It is the fulcrum that drives all athletic power and prowess. If you are designing biologically augmented super soldiers and they have no ass, not only are you a gayer than a faggot (who can still appreciate a nice butt) you have designed a character that looks like they don't even lift, run slow, can't jump, and cause gradual wear on their tailbone by exisitng. It is an abject failure to understand what an athletic Olympiad body should look like. No tits is just less weight to move around, no ass is a fucking liability, there's no contest.
>>722219318Wasn't trying to imply Chief and Cortana are the problem. But it will be a different problem eventually. They follow a timeline. There's only so many times they can do the Master Chief story. If the Halo series is going to have any longevity, it needs to expand its main characters. Which will help combat the same problem you're talking about.
>>722221247I didn't say shit about Bungie I just said 343i should die. Bungie should die too before they tarnish Marathon, they're both overdo.
>>722202856Put the franchise on hold for a couple years, work with an actual studio to make a remake of Halo CE that preserves but polishes its core mechanics (so no fucking sprint or slide bullshit) while adding in a couple weapons to fill in gaps in the sandbox. Stuff like the machine gun and minigun from spv3, covenant carbine etc. Smooth out the campaign ruby rebalanced style, update the graphics but still embrace the retro look. Give a solid and tight multiplayer. Add in a large scale 50v50 human vs covenant battlefield style gamemode (this is pretty much what the series should've been building to after invasion in reach and warzone in 5). Use the fucking latest tech you have to actually update the enemy AI and encounters.
>>722222696>>50% of the original Spartan-IIs were washed out by the augmentation surgery>>some died, some were crippled, some needed a few more corrective surgeries before progressing, and some had to be cryogenically frozen in the hope that future medical technology could help them>50% of the original Spartan-IIs were washed out by the augmentation surgery>some died, some were crippled, some needed a few more corrective surgeries before progressing, and some had to be cryogenically frozen in the hope that future medical technology could help themYou're quoting from expanded universe that Bungie wiped their noses with.
>>722222567Lmao butts
>>722222435I'd agree with you, were I not to be disappointed in mystery posters. One can think a sense of mystery is the only thing that keeps some people invested, i.e. they don't actually care about details. They just want a tasteful amount and a tasteful lack.
>>722222664Master Chief ages very slowly and Cortana got replaced with a new Cortana, they can keep making games with them as the protagonist as Chief barely has a character to begin with other than badass. 343's first mistake was thinking Chief wasn't the player and needed a character other than kill shit and save the day.
>>722222567>No tits is just less weight to move aroundTits are strategically important. Report to a nearest commissariat for correction immediately.
>>722222926What I really like about Half-Life is the original game opened so many doors because Xen is just a border world to other universes, meaning there's an entire multiverse of different aliens out there that we don't know about. There are mysterious beings above the Combine known only as "The Employers", we don't even truly know what the Combine even look like or how far their power level goes. That's what seriously makes Half-Life so cool.
>>722222121ok abdul
>>722222963>Master Chief ages very slowly and Cortana got replaced with a new CortanaThe entire point of Halo 4 is that John's Cortana is a unique person who can't just be replaced to be the same AI.> 343's first mistake was thinking Chief wasn't the playerThat Bungie BULLSHIT started with Halo 2. In Halo CE, he is a person with his own personality. He makes jokes, sympathizes with others, and has character flaws.
>>722223131It also makes it a high bar to reach. It's been so long since 2007.
>>722202856You don't Halo died with Reach or 3 if you want to be a Purist (Excluding O Conners bullshit)Any attempt to try to do it will end in failure like always and 343 are not up to the task. And I honestly doubt any anon here has any idea that would actual be worth a shit that isn't just wishing up Old Guard Bungie to have complete free reign from no publisher and stay like that forever completely uncontested.>>722203086 Because it's one of the few take aways to get I guess when your franchise is so in the gutter you gotta cope somehow to hang on to it
>>722221383nope they can breed, they're just spergy and don't fuck much
Execute 343 studios live on camera via firing squad and give the franchise to someone who isn't a pajeet temp rotating shithole

>>722223189Fuck off, tranny. Women suck at being police and soldiers, it's only acceptable to have them as soldiers for reasons like humanity is almost extinct. Any other reason is retarded because everyone knows it's pure feminism and we're all very much done with that shit.
>>722202856Why the fuck would Save something that's already dead?And no Halo is basically dead at this point and nothing will come close to Bungie Halos
>>722223248>That Bungie BULLSHIT started with Halo 2. In Halo CE, he is a person with his own personality. He makes jokes, sympathizes with others, and has character flaws.I honestly think that most of Chief's characterization in CE is a side effect of Cortana originally being indented to have a British accent and wanting someone to play off of that.A blunt man of action who is also sometimes a bit thick is the perfect character to play off of the Dry Humor of a snarky and smart British Woman and so Chief as a character was made to fit that role.This doesn't meant that Jen was bad, in truth she was great, but that for for 2 onwards where they were writing Cortana with Jen in mind they were no longer writing with British snark in mind.
>>722223248>The entire point of Halo 4 is that John's Cortana is a unique person who can't just be replaced to be the same AI.Fuck Halo 4's story, it was retarded. If they wanted Cortana to have rampancy so badly, they should have made it a gameplay gimmick.>That Bungie BULLSHIT started with Halo 2. In Halo CE, he is a person with his own personality. He makes jokes, sympathizes with others, and has character flaws.That was the case in all of Bungie's Halo games. just because he showed empathy for Marines doesn't mean he's not a blank slate for the players. 343 never got Master Chief or Cortana, nor did they get the point of them because they wanted to make movies instead of video games.

>>722223761>>722223817I don't get why people are conflating>Halo can be bigger than Chief and Cortanawith>Halo has to retire Chief and Cortana entirelyLike both methods can be good if done right and do not inherently need to contradict each other.
>>722221383No, only reddittrannies say otherwise because they either cut theirs off, are cucks, or will never fuck anyways. It's canonically a risk. Bungie ignored it, 343 made Master Chief not affected by it along with some other Spartan-IIs.
>>722202856Decrease TTK and make it pc/kb+m exclusiveand add ODST/ Sanghelli+Mgalekgolo sex scenes
>>722223906Shut your tranny ass up, you're spending more money trying to make a women as strong as a man who was also augmented. You literally cannot make a women physically equal to an augmented man, that shit was always stupid and clearly feminist propaganda. Just another reason Spartans after IIIs was retarded.

>>722223953I know, a lot of these guys could just ask for a spin-off game but instead they're like no, replace Chief and Cortana, that will fix everything. That wouldn't fix anything knowing 343's track record regarding sidelining Master Chief.

>>722223761> Fuck Halo 4's story, it was retarded. No. It wasn't. >If they wanted Cortana to have rampancy so badly, they should have made it a gameplay gimmick.Oh, like the "stop in the middle of gameplay" mechanic of Halo 3 that wasn't answered at all? Yeah. Really satisfying. >just because he showed empathy for Marines doesn't mean he's not a blank slate for the players. He was literally his own character, separate from the player. That was the establishing game. >343 never got Master Chief or CortanaBULL SHIT. Halo 4 understood both characters and gave them terrific arcs from the blown up scraps Bungie left them.
>>722224446>geneticsIt is, actually, assuming you want humans to be humans.It's also not a problem because one can simply engage in genetic and bio engineering.
>>722224184I think i see the issue now, they are advocating from a position of making the story better, in which case removing Chief solves the issue of him finishing his story in 3.Your advocating from the position that the story doesn't matter because if it did to the point where retiring Chief matters it would get in the way of the gameplay.Did I get that right?
>>722224415just be 5ft tall and find a 6f5+ bbw gf
>>722224446If the scientists were based they would do that like as a joke. Fucking Laughing their asses off while reach crumbles around them.
>>722202856>>722204340>>722205346what's the sauce on those models?
>>722224446You have to put more money into this project because women are significantly weaker than men, augmenting a woman would not get her anywhere close to that of an augmented man unless you use something stronger and more advance. This is why post-war female Spartan-IVs were silly. You can tell it was to push feminism including having a female Spartan leader. This shit doesn't work on us anymore, this liberal bullshit.
>>722224564Maybe if your scientists were Space Pirates or something.
>>722224446You really typed all that and never once did the thought occur to you that having a stronger foundation creates a stronger structure on top of it? That starting with a weaker base template, one which is already at a disadvantage just for surviving the trauma of training and implantation, is a waste of resources when they'll still have issues in their basic anatomy that creates worse warriors never once went through your skull?Doubly so that this is fucking Halo, this is not some overly fantastical sci-fi setting which has magic disguised as tech halo attempts to remain grounded in realism and verisimilitude.
>>722224614>significantly weakerDo you think basic sexual dimorphism phenomena make human females into space aliens or something?The only ultimate issue with female physical power boosting is retaining anatomic femininity.
>>722224519>No. It wasn't.Yes, it was. It was a movie first, game second.>Oh, like the "stop in the middle of gameplay" mechanic of Halo 3 that wasn't answered at all? Yeah. Really satisfying.That was rushed, it was originally not meant to interrupt gameplay like it did.>He was literally his own character, separate from the player. That was the establishing game.Only in cutscenes, that was intentional>BULL SHIT. Halo 4 understood both characters and gave them terrific arcs from the blown up scraps Bungie left them.The closest 343 got to understanding Master Chief was Halo Infinite, anything before that was an embarrassment.
>>722224697Halo is quite literally exceedingly fantastical just like IRL reality.Halo is Mass Effect slash SMAC tier of cosmic horrifying technological power, when you actually examine its principles.
>>722217664give me more of that
>>722224554But Iβm 6β1
>>722224528>>722224614>>722224697spartans were experimented on as prepubescent children and had full hormone replacements. you can hardly call them men or women. most of them died anyway. doctors would have been willing to experiment on anyone that they thought had a chance of surviving the process "realistic" altered supersoldiers would look more like flesh golems than humans
>>722224532Yes, exactly. People may not like it, but 343 were spot on with retconning the cycles thing in with Infinite. It allows them to replace the Covenant and Flood with something that can take their place but not change the Halo gameplay like Prometheans did. It would also help Halo not become stale and make spin-offs more interesting while also adding a lot of hype when games take place in the past and can bring in the Covenant and Flood when needed.
>>722224792> Yes, it was. It was a movie first, game second.No. That's just an easy insult you use instead of arguing for why.>That was rushed, it was originally not meant to interrupt gameplay like it did.Oh. WOW! You know what the devs were thinking?! Are you Charles Xavier?>Only in cutscenes, that was intentionalYou think that this means he isn't his own character or something?>The closest 343 got to understanding Master Chief was Halo Infinite, anything before that was an embarrassment.Infinite, on EVERY level, was an embarassment to the entire IP, especially writing when the whole story was nothing more than spinning characters' wheels in place. "Oh, my gosh, a Covenant was a soldier! I should respect him because I'm a soldier and I shouldn't consider the fact that he's genocided my race". Absolutely pathetic.
>>722224902>"realistic" altered supersoldiers would look more like flesh golems than humansOnly if no more thought was put into it.When you think about it, Spartans looking sexy is beneficial for morale and getting more test subjects.
>>722222853I just explained I don't give a fuck about Bungie. Nothing in my first post implied that I believe what Bungie thought about EU lore 20 years ago should be important to OPs question, are you sub-80 IQ?
>>722224883at least being 5ft10 has its adantages ive had some tall or taller gfs
>>722224813>Halo is quite literally exceedingly fantastical just like IRL realityNot when it comes to humanity/spartans no it isn't. The flood are all sorts of bullshit because the novel writers are fucking stupid but spartans don't even have a healing factor, they just dump biofoam onto injuries to get to a surgeon later. They are incapable doing truly over the top shit despite living in a setting where a mostly naturally evolved species can flip tanks with their bare hands.
>women can't be spartans that's not what they'd look likeYeah no shit. Those BASED GODS at ONI gave the girls a different supersoldier cocktail that mean they still had juicy asses and deliciously supples breasts even with 1% bodyfat.They auged them in the ways that matter. Thank you UNSC SPARTASS program.
>>722224902this is what scientists think a genetically modified superhuman who could withstand car crashes would look like
>>722224902This is why this only works for Spartan-IIs and IIIs, they even stated this in the lore. Spartan-Is were all men because they were adults. Spartan-IV females don't make any sense because they got augmented as adults. For a Spartan-IV female to be equal to a male Spartan-IV she would have to have been as strong as a man without augments. You know how stupid that sounds, lol? 343 is retarded, lmao.>>722224715Female Spartan-IIs and IIIs being that strong make since because it was done when they were kids, female Spartan-IVs are retarded because of what I said above.
>>722224409I looked more into it and actually it might be that halo 2 was a clusterfuck and halo 3 was by committee Apparently due to all the moving parts of Halo 2 all the major cutscenes were in flux until way farther into development (looking up Lee R. Wilson's story boards for halo 2 shows a lot more character) and halo 3 was literally written to be an epic cinematic climax by various team members while Staten was burned out from 2.
The answer to fixing Halo is: Make a Halo. It really is that simple. Make a Halo. It's what we were promised in the first game. The illusion of being on the Halo was as complete as an Xbox could produce with giant levels and incredible skyboxes. Opening on the pillar and landing on the ring helped as well. So the solution is to....wait for it...make a Halo. A real, physically modeled Halo that we as a player can experience in game.Setup: UNSC gathers Halo fragments and builds a tiny mini-Halo. They are using it for Spartain Training and then predictably the Covenant invades when they discover the Halo. Master Chief is woken up at the new Halo to be retired but that's when they strike. Game mirrors Halo 1. Easy.Gameplay in a Halo: Real physically modeled/in-game orbital drops. Sniping the upturned curve. Corridor+Open world style map, always moving forward. Skybox Star/Planet gives crazy day/night + cycle.

>>722225254Man, they weren't kidding when they said trannies have low IQ. Only cuck men fall for feminism.
>>722225254So is having a hard on about female soldiers being in games. Let it fucking go. No one wants it. Women don't want it. You can pretend it's realistic in a world where all sorts of amazing shit happens. But there is still a basic bell curve of male and female capabilities that have very little overlap....Let's go with your faggot ass... not only do they solve that in the future but women are straight up stronger and they are all the soldiers now. Why? What did we achieve. No one is playing this game.
>>722224942>No. That's just an easy insult you use instead of arguing for why.When your focus is on story and lore and not gameplay, you're clearly not interested in making a game.>Oh. WOW! You know what the devs were thinking?! Are you Charles Xavier?Someone found the beta version of Cortana Moments in Halo 3.>You think that this means he isn't his own character or something?Yes>Infinite, on EVERY level, was an embarassment to the entire IP, especially writing when the whole story was nothing more than spinning characters' wheels in place. "Oh, my gosh, a Covenant was a soldier! I should respect him because I'm a soldier and I shouldn't consider the fact that he's genocided my race". Absolutely pathetic.Cope tranny, it's a disappointment but completely shits on Halo 4's and 5's dogshit campaigns that only redditrannies love.
>>722225254No, it makes fine sense you're just an idiot.Getting a kid before puberty hits means that the big testosterone dump a male goes through becomes far less relevant as the artificial growth you're subjecting them to is more majorPicking up a full grown adult means you're facing the full brunt of biological dimorphism and, moreover, the simple fact that 99% of all combat arms who would qualify for the program in the first place would be male soldiers.
>>722225065>missing implications of having an access even to most basic FTL engines>missing the implications of smart AI chip substrate and transfer phenomena between systems>missing the inhumanly rapid reverse engineering capacities courtesy of AI powerIf UNSC was actually willing to cross certain lines they could've hurt the Covenant a lot more.
>>722202856You don't. Neverending games/franchises is the problem with modern gaming. There used to be variety, now it's same the slop different year.
>>722225102>female Spartan-IVs are retarded because of what I said above.You keep on assuming that you can't alter mature humans when they grew up, and can only make changes on initial stages. It can be done. It's just more complex.
>>722225374>>722225396>>722225501ugh yeah i hate all these gay faggots thats why i advocate for halo to only have musclar men and no hot babes. science proves that hot babes are infact gay and unrealistic so we should remove them at once!!!!!
>>722225516Its never implied that they're too stupid or too morally obstinate to do those things so the only assumption left is that the rules of the setting prevent those things from happening in the same way that they can somehow discover slipspace FTL but still be using shitty rifles.
>>722225596>so we should remove them at onceNever said that you faggot. You want your amazonian super soldiers then go for it but don't try to pretend it makes sense to pick them over dude who is an objectively better soldier in every sense.
>>722225516They also have trivial artificial gravity in ships as small as the Longsword from the end of CE. It's just sci-fi conveniences and nothing more intended.
they wil never ever do it but i think the only way to keep the games going is to go back to mcc and keep updating the challenges and playlists for a bit and put it on ps5/switch im not sure if anything can be done with infinite its was just so doa i dont think anyone cares enough to bother playing it at least not in my region
>>722225491>When your focus is on story and lore and not gameplay, you're clearly not interested in making a game.You think including a good story means you have to detract from the gameplay? That's just false. >YesWell, that's incorrect.>Cope tranny, Oh, poor Pajeet. Don't worry. Someday, someone will think you're a white man. >it's a disappointment but completely shits on Halo 4's and 5's dogshit campaigns that only redditrannies love.Methinks the tranny doth protest too much.
>nobody knows about the space communists and space nazis that nuked Earth before the UNSC consolidated power
>>722202856I tried the early Halo's on PC, and they feel awful. Like they were specifically made for console and it shows. Don't know about the more recent ones.
>>722224504play with the third-person mod for the best experience
>>722225684Except the Forerunners already have vastly more complex things using the usual phenomena.Surely there'd be many attempts at making plasma guns over 6 centuries?Perhaps somebody is scheming and doesn't really want humans to be advanced, so tech advancement is gimped by a conspiracy.
Anything more or less than gameplay making 60-70% of a games enjoyment compared to 30-40%.Caring about story any more than that means your a pretentious snob don't get games and should go back to reading and caring about gameplay any more than that means your a souless subhuman that drags games down and should go back to sports. Either way gaming is only worse by your presence

>>722202856Why would you? It was a mediocre pc shooter from a mac developer ported to cash in on a timmy console market whose only basis for comparison was like Goldeneye. The moment everything became cross platform, a 4/10 pc shooter on console was no longer a 10/10 console shooter, it was just a 4/10 shooter. Everything the Halo franchise did had already been done infinitely better by other games even when it was new. There is no reason for Halo to exist after Halo 3 because better fps games were becoming available on console.
I'm more of a brute guy.

>>722224090I agree with you.
>>722225958>are you going to point out that bikini armor is unrealistic from a metallurgic blacksmithingWait a minute, you seriously sayin you can't make a bikini armor?
>>722225964It's on the steam workshop, Halo Reach Third-Person. I think there's a couple that do it slightly differently, like balancing weapons bloom to be tighter and such to help with not being able to ADS. I don't really remember which was the best. >>imagejust some pics I took last playthrough

>>722222963Better to expand the universe now while the Master Chief/Cortana storylines haven't gotten stale or before they run out of ideas for them.
>>722226426>Fears?If it's the remake, It'll look "new", but not necessarily better. If it's a new Halo, then it's just going to suck.>ExpectationsNone. I've given up.
>>722226391fine, it's locked perspective so always behind your head (far enough back to see your butt), I think the mod just swaps your normal view with the camera view you'd have when you pick up a turret
>>722226053You're emotionally attached to this franchise but think it through. There is nothing worth bringing back. The movement is so floaty slow and imprecise it might as well be underwater. The gunplay is babby's first fps. The mechanics are deliberately sluggish.The map design is modder-tier. The story is basically half a dozen tropes smashes together like "ancient evil" "religion bad" etc. The main character is a silent protagonist faceless marine guy called "master chief" who is a "spartan" for 12 year olds in the 2000's. There is nothing here that hasn't been done better a million times. There's nothing that hadn't been done better already even in 1999.
>>722225808they control exactly how they are meant to You never played Doom ?
I still think doom has the best fps feel
>>722202856Risk of coom bait aside; a Halo game as a Shanghelli Shipmaster would be cool or anything where you play as an elite only would be cool as well.

this guy thinks if he writes a paragraph instead of a sentence it makes him less of a retard.
>>722225595Which is why it's not worth the investment. They either just make men Spartan-IVs or don't bother at all. Going by 343's own lore regarding both the Forerunners and humanity's ancestors, they literally could have just kept the same rules that the Spartan-IIs and IIIs have and after at least a million or a billion years, all humans would be as busted at the Spartan-IIs no matter the gender, but 343 needed that feminism in there and fucked that up. Women should never be allowed to be leaders, they're too retarded for that.>>722225596I would be fine with it if they went back to multiplayer not being canon. That way they could use the deceased Spartan-II and III females.
>>722225772>You think including a good story means you have to detract from the gameplay?

>>722226442It already got stale by Halo 4, 343 try continuing Bungie's universe which had already ended with both Halo 3 and Reach only for them to hit a wall. Infinite was their way of breaking out of the hole they dug themselves in and break away from Bungie's story to finally branch the series out in their own direction. This is why they ended up creating cycles in Infinite. They realized Halo Infinite should have been Halo 4.>>722226785Just retcon Halo 4 and 5, those games damaged Halo CE-3 to the point that Infinite needed to distance itself from them.

>>722227560343's fuck up was not fully remaking Halo CE back in 2011. Halo Studio now has to fix their mistakes starting next year. If 343 would have remade Halo CE back in 2011, there would have been less issue today. They would have gotten the backlash out the way then when Halo was still huge and people probably would have better accepted it on Xbox without the need for putting the game on every platform to escape the mentally ill Halo fans.

>>722227929Halo "7" will be an indirect sequel but Halo Studios seems hell bent on dealing with the Banished and revealing the Endless next game along with the big reveal of Offensive Bias too. They talked about Edge of Dawn as though it's filler and not important. CE remake is probably going to make a lot of Infinite references and hints and set ups for Infinite's indirect sequel.

>>722227961The correct think to do is to let halo die, a reboot appeal to nobody and the core fanabse will accept nothing less than Halo EC-3 tier games.Even if it was Doom tier gameplay the series prestige has dwindled so severely that the diehards you want to move away from are what's left to be the vanguard.So all your wining about fan entitlement means nothing at this point.
>>722208232Holy fuck, he's done it. He pitched the only Halo game in the last decade I've actually wanted.
