This faggot is ancient. Imagine caring about vidya pass 25. Get into politics or finances like the rest of them, grandpa.
I remember that old picture of halo 1 with kiddy "babies first fps" in silly balloon font. It's so fucking insane how people now praise halo.I wonder if people will have nostalgia for crap like resident evil 6 in the future as well.
>these zooms pretending they wonlollmao

>>722650591Everything started to suck when this board started to unironically praise shit like Dark Souls aka zoomer's first action rpg. It's newer than Gaylo too.

>>722650592Halo is better than doom and halflife. People don't like how linear it seems with the slow movement speed. It's combination of acting and graphics made it groupa as fuck

>>722650890Yet both Doom and Half Life have better mods than Halo. Most of the mods for Halo you'll ever see people talk about are "le cursed" ones.
>NOOOO YOU CAN'T LOVE NEWER THINGS WHY CAN'T YOU LIKE THIS ANCIENT GARBAGE THAT I GREW UP WITHBoomers are cringe manchildren who should let go.
>>722651008nah just pity
>gaylo? Chad warden wipes his ass with gaylo nigga
>>722650168Idgaf if it's zoomer or millenial game but anyone who thinks Halo was anything else than a decently fun local party game is delusional. As FPS it's horrid consoleslop. Same reason why Medal of Honor Rising Sun is nostalgic to some people here but not "The best FPS". Kind of like some Disney game. Nostalgic sure but you know there are better games out there.Halo to FPS is what Wii Sports is to sports games.
>>722651078>modsNo shit faggot. Doom has probably the most wads compared to any other game. I mean compared to mods that are more that just a reskin or adding an item or something littleVanilla gamplay, Halo is better.>>722651187nah just pride
>>722651128lmao seething

>>722651480>screenshot of a tweet of a screenshot of a retweet
Halo and Goldeneye were pretty much the same thing we just liked Goldeneye better because we were younger. They were both baby's first FPS, but I was a baby when Goldeneye came out so it was fitting.

>>722650025Wow nice Jeetrock repost
>>722651297Reminds me of the Beavis and Butthead fire accident that killed a 2 year old, which turned out to be fake because that family never had cable to begin with so they couldn't turn to MTVParents and journalist will blame everything but themselves
>>722651671I'll take that as yes
>>722651710You'll also take a dick in your ass
>>722651541Yeah you know what else was designed for the fucking DOS? System Shock 1, released less than a year after Doom. And in that game, you actually had to aim. Sit the fuck down
>>722651760Uh oh melty
I'm brown and didn't get into the Halo bandwagon growing up.Can someone explain how big of a deal it really was?
>samefag is still crying about HaloI enjoy boomer's suffering. All boomer arena shooters are dead.
>>722651817Your argument was bullshit from the beginning you fucking trollYou love doom don't you
>>722650025>today /v/ was LE basedWhat even is the point of this thread? That Halo isn't a zoomer thing? I think anyone with a brain can figure this out.
>>722651839Its was innovative in gameplay, voice acting, and graphics.Now that all those have been mastered it really doesn't matter
>>722651898I love Doom, yes, but I can acknowledge its flaws, like every other game. Unlike you
>>722651954You are a poop pwrson and don't know what aim assist isI gift you the last word
>>722650989Look up >>722600028 in the archives
>>722652097Uh oh meltdown
>>722651943>Now that all those have been mastered it really doesn't matterIf only. No one can make halo clone. Somehow even simple shield mechanic is too complex for devs.Where is my military SF epic?
if halo is so badwhy cant the hardcore players be good at it
>>722651796Which meant it was progress. Doom was still struggling with 3D environment and making it run proper.Year in past was much more time for development and ideas, especially on new genre, than today.No. Aim assist(mainly for different heights it was important as freelook wasn't a thing due to 2.5D nature) wasn't good choice, but you gotta realize there was 8 years of development time and technological advances with fuckton of advances on FPS as a genre. System Shock was a good game, and as you just said, it was also better than Halo.Halo Infinite as well has aim assist.Better question would be, that how on earth did System Shock solve that in 1994, a year after grandaddy of FPS games, but Halo had to still use it in 2001 and STILL uses it in 2020s with Halo Infinite?Halo's aim assist which isn't due to meddling with new genre, is the true legacy of it's whole series and genre as it never moved away from it just so it could be as casual friendly game as possible for couch partygame times. In same essence as Smash games, even if Melee comp scene is a different beast.But aim assist is the CORE identity of the whole series and if you remove it the Halo fans will screech.But the point wasn't to make to say aim assist was must have and important part of Doom(later sourceports proved that), but more the fact that Halo had so much time to evolve, especially when System Shock already solved it partly. And later shooters especially solved it.At best Halo fans can say that their controller is so ass that they need game to aim for them but yeah.
>nooooo you must play ugly boomershit like quake

Halo is literally the only non-shilled FPS still talked about on this board.
>>722650025Oh look, it's the 50 year old that got clowned on by millennials yesterday
>>722652160It only needs to be mastered once. Doom was a mastery of gameplay.Halflife was a mastery of fps story.Halo brought the two together and then someAnother comparison would be Demon's Crest vs Blasphemous.

>>722650890>>722651227Halo is too slow. Imagine moving at that speed IRL in the middle of a war.
>>722650025Anon in pic is objectively correct and anyone who disagrees is a post-2010 newfag.Halo was the game that brought the FPS genre to mainstream on consoles and as a direct consequence it has proceeded to utterly and completely destroy, dumb down and casualize the entire genre for the next 10-15 years.>controller focused controls meant the entire game had to be designed around people with dogshit aiming>limited available buttons has standardized the "you can only carry 2 weapons" setup>shield recharge has enforced the "shoot and cover" gameplay instead of the DOOM/Quake style FPS, forcing players to stay in cover for the majority of the combat doing literally nothing>Xbox Live was a direct line to paid multiplayer service on consolesHalo was, and still is, baby's first FPS.
gaylo was for low iq retards that didn't know pc has better shooters
I am proud to be a millennial. We created the coolest technology and video games. Gen Z destroyed the planet.
>>722650025Oh no free updates, free skins and Forge is le bad according to boomers now. Get fucked. If you're pro modern games then you're the zoomer
>>722660023>Halo was the game that brought the FPS genre to mainstream on consolesNo it fucking wasn't. It was Goldeneye and even PC gamers played it a ton because it was simply easier to do than carrying PCs all over the place
>>722660516>ipad in 1995Excuse me?
>>722660710Goldeneye was a big hit but it had NOWHERE near the cultural impact level and size as Halo in the mainstream casual audience, not to mention that it's only a single game as opposed to an entire franchise.
Why is Halo universally agreed as the pinnacle of video games? I was a PS2 guy at the time so I never experienced Halo
>>722661080I hate gaylo and that tweet is based
>>722661080it was one of the only exclusive FPS games consoles had that weren't complete assbut in the end it was just babies first FPS with heavy aim assist so you couldn't be bad at the game.
>>722660516>gen z>95horseshit. ziggers are 01 and up.
>>722661080>Why is Halo universally agreed as the pinnacle of video games?Not remotely.
>>722655829I've only ever seen zoomers start from 97 and up.
>>722651297wtf does Halo have to do with this retarded kid sucking on a hunting rifle?but i get it though, i blame trannies for all sorts of unrelated horrors
>>722660516I was born in 95, I turned 30 two months ago, I really don't care if I'm a millenial or gen z. Why does this matter so much to so many people?
I still haven't played a Halo. I plan to next year. I expect the first few to be amazing with a steep dropoff.
>>722661080It pioneered a FPS design that simply works: large open spaces with colorful, varied ennemies and interesting AIs interconnected by smaller setpieces/corridors. It's simply extremely fun and addictive to play.Other lauded FPS games of the time (Half Life, etc) are far more on rail experiences. Technically you can find some similarity with some arena shooters but even then not really. Halo really is the first FPS, ever, that mixed setpieces with wide open area in the exactly right proportion.Saying it's not a very engaging game is pure historical revisionism. Also I don't remember any hate against the games, the community perhaps but hating Halo only became trendy post 2016 when a new generation of CoD faggots who never played Halo grew up.

>>722661080It made FPS playable on console, They were a fucking joke before Halo They still are and halo is bad
>>722661080it was the first game that combined great fps combat with playing with friends on a console, intense cool weapons, good feeling movement and areas, etc. kinda like how mario 64 pioneered good feeling 3d open platforming even though technically there were some clunky 3d movement games before

I usually don't like FPS but the Halo games had really great couch co-op campaigns to play with your friends, also dicking around in 4 man splitscreen capture the flag was really fun. I want to go back
you really start to realize how forced the halo hate is; once you start playing a lot if quake and halo and you realize that basically no one plays either of these games and it's all just performative tard screeching from secondaries
shield mechanic still best way to give player feedback how good they are doing in a gun fight
>>722650025You know who play that shit? Gay niggas.
>>722668429Yea the shield is partly what made the games so exceptional, it gave you the ability to recover and turn the fight around by seeking cover. Once you've taken someones shield it becomes a cat and mouse game to take them down, it's just really fun stuff.

>>722671506You think the little "?" in the corner is stopping me from noticing you, botnigger?

>>722671638>You're a bot!Again, /pol/. IDs don't fix shit, the worst board has IDs and flags and everything people want that would "fix" the site, and it's the worst board on the site. The issue is cultural. There is no easy fix to "save /v/", because it is currently acting out its intended function.
>>722671878Why are yo so offended at ips being visible, a removed feature and me being able to easily see the (1) when you post botfag?
>>722671587These looks extremely rudimentary compared to Halo, especially since its just the same enemy over and over

>>722672054I'm not, I'm annoyed that you think that would fix anything./v/ was still shit with the IP counter by the way. /pol/ has always been shit with the thread IDs and flags. These don't fix anything, the issue is, again, a cultural one.Whatever issues you have with /v/'s quality can probably be traced back to your own posting habits.
>>722672412>Mark New IPs: Label each post from a new IP with the thread's current IP count.Why does this bother you so much, fag?
>>722650025When I first visited 4chan people rightly shat on fpses like halo, now it's overrun with nostalgic normalfags obsessing over it.
>>722672497Because 50% of /v/ is irony-poisoned genuine morons that argue with themselves and/or eachother in an attempt to elicit negative attention
>>722672497>>722672497It doesn't, you keep projecting the idea that I hate the concept of it when in actuality, I hate you. I think you're a retard, I think you're a moronic faggot that is so fucking new that he thinks /v/ was a good board, and not a complete shithole. IPs only got removed what, two years ago? /v/ was getting spammed with anal vore images like six years ago, with that "precaution" in place.The issue has always been cultural. No amount of turning the site into reddit was ever going to fix that.

>>722652287I love how you completely avoid talking about Quake because the actual 'movement tech' there destroys any argument you have in this shitpost.Apex is nearly dead while Doom/HL/Quake modding will continue on forever. Cope and seethe zoomie
>>722674917>You experience 95% of what the game has to offer within 5 minutes of playinghalo has no pacing. its a cover shooter, playing it any other way is incorrect.
>>722674842So true, my 26 year old friends won't shut up about bands from 1994 and CS 1.6These images are made by people that spend 90% of their time online, what the fuck would they know about popular culture?
>>722673776>revolutionary physics engineTrue. But that doesn't make the game fun. It's just a gimmick to play around for while... like a toy.>production of endless games, animations, mods, communities, etcFalse. Just a PC niche that died around 2010. Source Engine was never relevant outside of Counter Strike.>>facial animations that were decades ahead of its time (so far ahead, many AAA companies still cant match them)False. Facial animations of Half Life 2 are artificial and robotic compared to Final Fantasy 12 on the PS2.>story that was actually fucking interestingstory? are you really trying to say that a tech demo has a interesting story? jesus...HL2, a game with the worst guns in a fps, most repetitive gameplay, boring and lifeless levels (engine is too shitty) and obnoxious characters, contributed with the idea that you don't need a fun and legit game to sell millions, just a lot of marketing and internet hype. Halo have a lot in common.
>>722675162I mean half-life and quake share a lot of similarities for movement tbfh. half-life removed trimping and buffered jumps (VALVE RETARDS) and added crouching.

>>722650025The sheer retardation of /v/ really amuses me.The amount of (You) this post had was all millenials seething about their precious childhood fps being associated with zoomers and the people responding were other millenials trying to shit on younger millenials for liking Halo.It's basically millenials using zoomers as strawmen to shit on millenials lmao. t. actual 24yo zoomer who finished haloCE on heroic and legendary only last year and thought it was fucking shit, especially the library.
All of you little retards are 16-25.There's totally valid reasons to be saying halo is shit these days, but the actual games themselves were pretty alright besides being stuck on consoles and all the cancer that comes with.I don't give a shit about the opinion of a little retard that wasn't even alive when the first Halo came out.
>>722676981>finishes driving the faggy boat>the doors close>autosaves>forced to sit through the dialogue>it's just a shitty loading screen in realityYou have shit taste, you're mad and you're a fag.
>>722677076see >>722674917Halo was never alright
Why does Halo's superiority make arena faggots seethe so hard?
>>722677140Good dog. I command you once again to bark for your master.
I played Halo 1 and 2 on the original Xbox for the first time last year. Halo 1 was a revolutionary game and nothing else ever came close to it afterward either on PC or consoles. Halo 2 was a disgrace and is the game that every other Console FPS tried to ape. Halo 2 is the true Baby's first FPS.
>>722677180Halo is more primitive than Doom 2. Doom's movement and the BFG alone has more complexity in it than anything in Halo lmao
>>722677207Fag life 2 is a shit game and it will always be shit. Crying about it getting shit on will not make it good.
>>722650093don't tell em, but that's most screencaps. One of the most obvious ones is 4chan twitter integration screencap. Most tourists don't realize how inorganic this site is
>>722677154>NO NO, BUT I'M REPOSTING SOMEONE'S OPINION FROM 2006 WHO DIDN'T EVEN OWN AN XBOXDon't care.
>>722650025Objectively halo 2 was the best shooter in 2004, blows my mind that people act like half life 2 was a masterpiece that invented physics when plenty of games had physics including h2Halo 2 had better gameplayMiles better ai like lol the combine literally one at a time out of monster closets. Better levels, half of hl2 is boring. I can’t really remember a part of halo 2 i outright hate. Better story including music and cutscenesHalf life might as well have regenerative health with how the crates just refill you after all combat encounters anyways. Far better multiplayer and pretty much invented how consoles will do multiplayer for the rest of time I personally think a lot of shit the halo trilogy got was from sour grapes and if they were instead pc exclusives you niggas would put the trilogy on a pedestal. H1/2/3 were landmark titles that shaped the industry and built a whole brand.Pc during that time only really got a subpar corridor shooter everyone pretends was special, tf2 and like world of warcraft lol.Its a real shame Microsoft kept making more halo games, really should have let it die in its prime so it wouldn’t be a joke
>>722677321I bet you're stoked for this year's CoD's movement tech
>>722677076halo wouldnt be getting so much shit if wasnt so overly praised as the fucking messiah of fps games.Obsession with mediocrity breeds more mediocrity
>>722657593funny when people say that the japanese games industry had a dark age when those are all japanese games except for CoD and GTA
>>722677596It isn't that Half Life 2 invented physics, it's that it actually used physics regularly for literally anything other than sending props flying when explosives go off near them
>>722677596>Grok? yeah write me another shitpost about why halo 2 is better than half life 2.
>>722677761Explosives sending things all over the place is pretty much the peak of physics and no people really do think hl2 created them All hl2 did was add a gimmick gun halfway in
>>722677668Nobody says that and most shit these days are Counterstrike clones or clones of counterstrike clones
>>722677761>stack bricks >jumps overWow, so based. No other game in 2004 had physics. Fag life basically invented physics.
>>722677778Point out anywhere where i was wrong? Does half of hl2 not suck dick because it does, god most of half life 2 is boring at least maybe a bit more. Does hl2 ai actually have any kind of challenge instead of the single enemy types walking in straight lines out of monster closets?Does it not practically have regenerative health with how crates heal you to full anyways?Does hl2 soundtrack not suck ass when people only know the one tiny meme song?Does hl2 plot not suck dick?
>>722678017That's more than any other game was doing with physics, but it's true that you're only gonna see the full range of what the physics can do in Gmod
>>722678110So true. Just like driving was not present in any other game in 2004. Fag life invented gayming.
>>722678060Oh no, he's panicking bc i saw through his shitty ai generated posts
>>722678110I can’t think on top of my head but oot pretty much did the same think with block pushing puzzles or do those not count
>>722660516more like consumed.We had a great time, but I don't pretend that we didn't play a huge part in the downfall of culture and social environment, without giving anything back.
Also what's with this faggotry where you're pretending Half Life fags are like Mario 64 fags.People don't remember Half Life/2 for "inventing everything" people remember it for not having a shit sdk and the fact that if you bought Half Life 2 and/or Counterstrike Source it was like buying 400 games that all mostly played well.
>>722678195>can’t point outI pretty much full move to pc like a 15 years ago but being retarded and still having sour grapes about halo is sad.Its clearly a pretty decent put together triplgy and far more important than anything happening on pc from 2001-2007 easily And halo 2 specifically is better than 95% of pc shooters like no contest lol
>>722678294Hell this shit's why people are annoyed as fuck that shit like SteamHome has a windows only SDK and they abandoned the non-VR mode.
>>722678294Uh because normies really do act like half life 2 created everythingI seen way too many shitty video essays about a basic bitch corridor shooter for my liking
>>722678294Look at this fag life 2 loser screaming into the void. No one liked fag life 2 on release, it was always shit and it will always be shit.
>>722678414>Um actually these strictly hypothetical people DO existNo retard
>>722662421Late millennials and early zoomers desperate to not be zoomers, so they push the date forward. Early zoomers and late millennials desperate to not be millennials, so they push the date back. The start date for gen z is '97, end of story. All the cultural hallmarks a generation grows up with is mostly made by the previous generation under the guidance of the one before them.Generation shitflinging is just Divide and Conquer psyops to keep people infighting instead of banding together and actually doing anything.
>pc players scream babys first shooter before they load up their too smart for a console tard masterpiece where they point a crosshair at a Congo line of the single enemy type in the entire game walking out of a monster closet with their magnum and press left click over and over again until its time to hit boxes programmed to full heal you so you never have to worry about anythingI mean just come the fuck onHalf life 1 still isn’t much better, still just a basic corridor shooter but least that came out early enough to be justifiable
>>722650025>Marathoning Halo couch co-op with your best broI didn't think anything could replace Donkey Kong Country for us, but bro and I are bonding at new heights
>>722678994Fag life 2 is basically baby's first fps, or game for that matter. No coping about gaylo will change that.
Crazy how the next-gen late 2000s call of duty and battlefield games (very successful and memorable games, btw) have a lot in common with Black and nothing in common with a shitty dudebro shooter like halo.
>>722678582>Late millennials and early zoomers desperate to not be zoomers, so they push the date forward. Early zoomers and late millennials desperate to not be millennials, so they push the date backMeanwhile core zoomers and core millenials don't give a rat fuck about all of this lmao, being born in a generation shift truly is the ultimate cuckery.
>>722677420bingo
>>722677375Good dog. Bark once again as your master commands instead of being a man and having your beliefs tested. You WILL bark like for a dog for me.
>>722677432You could provide a retort, but you won't. you can't.
>>722680485You're a seething homo and fag life 2 sucks.
>pc fags pretending pc is a platform of prestige when it was killed for 20 years until fucking Roblox and league of legends resurrect it Lol
>>722654665Don't forget the gamepad impact on level design.
>>722679749Because halo isn’t a dude bro shooter and only got labeled that retroactively around h3 and its mtn dew ads?
The only Halo game I've played was Halo 3 so I think everyone who gets assmad about Halo is retarded.
>>722650978No they don't. Zoomers start at 1997. Even the oldest are only 28 this year.
>>722680808Nooooooooooo its bad because it made shooters playable on controllers and uh 2 weapon limit i mean cs pretty much had that already just with a shitty melee option as an option but only 2 real options except 1 actual option and uh regenerative health despite shooters were already pretty much giving you that anyways via full heals and uhhhhIts just sourgrapes if halo was pc first 4chan would have sucked it off.
I played and liked all types of fps like dark forces,UT,Goldeneye,Halo, and Crysis. These days we even have coop shooters like deep rock and payday. There's also been a huge amount of interest on older 'boomer' shooters that have been really fun too. Man I love videogames.
>>722680595Good dog. Bark once again for your master, demonstrating how terrified you are of having your beliefs tested.You WILL bark like a dog for me again.
>>722681075Nigga you sound retarded, nobody even knows wtf point you’re yammering about, and this bit is gay
>>722650618Nobody posted DOOM though, the casual shit where you can side step rockets and don't have to aim up to shoot someone 4 stories above you
>>722681075Shit taste in games and a fag. You've won the loser lottery.
>>722680704What does this even mean? Halo has more vertically and open levels than most pc shooters
>>722677321Nobody played half life dm, and doom 2 movement. Do you mean hold strafe to be invincible to all not hitscan?
>>722650579>Get into politicsPolitics are the pasttime of boring people. Even spending all your time watching movies would make you a more interesting person to talk to.

>>722681124I asked him to name a single fps campaign with better pacing than hl2 and he started barking like a dog>>722681184Good dog. you WILL bark like a dog for your master once again.
>>722650025Ah, the thread so shite we had it twice.
Anyone want to play Quake?
>>722681854You're gay and your favorite game is dogshit.
>>722650579excellent bait, got the 30+ malding with this one
>Halo>Zoomer shit Halo hasn't been relevant for 15 years
>>722681970>*bark bark*There is nothing gayer than being terrified of staking a position on 4chan and being bullied into submission. Good dog, I command you to bark for your master once again.You WILL reply to me barking like a dog as I command.
>>722682187You like fag life 2, you're cringe and gay.
>>722650618Zoomers were just coming out of their Dad's nutsack when Halo CE came out, what the fuck are you talking about?
>>722682274There is nothing gayer than barking like a beaten dog begging its master for attention when commanded to. You WILL bark like a dog for me once again and further demonstrating your fear of staking a position.
>>722682409The oldest ones are already born though
>>722682434Fag life 2 is for fags with shit taste. The funniest part about you getting called out for your shit taste is that you'll cry yourself to sleep tonight. This is what every fag life 2 shill deserves.
>>722682518They were like 4, maybe 5 years old tops.
>>722682618Good dog. Continue to do exactly as I say. Bark like a beaten submissive mutt who is terrified of its master. Continue to demonstrate how terrified of me you are that you won't stake a position.
>>722650025Stopped caring about halo after they made the forerunner into flat nose space chinks. Fuck you 343, human being forerunners was great and fuck you again for ruining it so you could make three books and the drop the forerunners altogether in games.
>>722650579The boomers didn't stop watching cable tv, and you won't stop playing video games. You better be ready to get reamed in the retirement home LAN parties, dementia will be no excuse.
>>722682409Gen Z were already 6 years old by the time Halo 1 came out.
>>722682784Shit game.
>>72265061875% of zoomers weren't even born when Halo first released.
>zoomers thinking boomers calling halo a zoomer game is to do with zoomers but actually its just boomers perception of what a zoomer is
>>722683373I don't even think it's boomers, I think it's just mentally stunted people that compartmentalized their view of popular culture to 2010 permanently
>>722683373This gay shit flinging is retarded and tiresome.

>>722683859They should be happy, at least their game is not being constantly being raped again and again, while everyone watching is gaslit into believing it's not rape but a modern piece of art.
