>Halo CE Remake will have sprint & "moderngameplay mechanics".good?
>>723230139Oh my Yahweh consoletard FPS game remake will have consoletard FPS game mechanics this is outrageous I need to reply to this thread 300 times
>>723230139>Halo CE RemakeAnother one? For fuck's sake.
>>723230273anniversary edition was a remasternext one is a remake
>>723230273>Another one?No, the last one was a " Remastered " LOL.
>>723230139That its shouldn't have an apostrophe, can you please go back to twitter and tell him?
>>723230273Based retard
>>723230139>we will remake halo and gow until morale improves
Why didn't the covenant just destroy the humans from their spaceship? Why did they allow the humans to run around the ring and wreak havoc? After the pillar of autumn crashed on the ring the pursuing covenant ships could have just focus-fired their large guns on the human remnants.
>>723230139Why was Halo such a hyped franchised? I played the original on a modded Xbox and it doesn't seem that much greater than something like Half Life.
>>723230519It was a scifi series that took itself seriously with passionate developers. It was a product of the golden age of video games.
Literally nobody is going to play it.
>>723230448i'm not a lorefag, but>the ship had shields and the covenant actually managed to destroy it after constant fire>the troops the covenant sent to board the ship were all low ranks sent as basically suicide bombers and expected to die>the surviving humans used escape pods, including master chief>the covenant didn't glass the remaining human troops from their ship because they didn't want to damage the ring, since it's sacred to them
>>723230139I can definitely confirm I won't be playing it in that case
>>723230519It really wasn't anything special, I remember PC magazines at the time had really lukewarm response because there were dozens of FPS games like this already and doesn't innovate anything over something like Half Life, the only unique thing about it is the setting, but console players have never seen an FPS game before aside from maybe Golden Eye apparently, and they were blown away.
>>723230519First multiplayer game for burgerbros
>>723230139Reminder that chief's move speed in CE is still faster than sprinting in reach.
>>723230139DEAD ON ARRIVALDEAD DEADDEAD ON ARRIVAL
>>723230139Literally the only way I'm even going to stomach the idea of this is if it's revealed they've completely redesigned the second half of the campaign so it's less repetitive and back-tracky, and the game is going to have most of the weapons from future games.
STOP REMAKING OLD SHITMAKE SOME NEW SHIT
>>723230139LMAOOOOOOO REMAKING HALO 1 LOLOLOLOL BABIES FIRST GAME....Developers have no spine
>>723230448They didn't want to damage the ring, since it's a holy relic to them. That and humans were scattered all over the ring in small groups due to escape pods and pelicans.>>723230785Human ships don't have shields in halo (Aside from the Infinity but that's 343 shit)
Thank Microdick for killing Halo you fucking incompetent retards
>>723230875>and doesn't innovate anything over something like Half LifeThe only thing Half-Life as a franchise innovated was the cancerous in-game cutscene that's not a cutscene faggotry, where you stand around like a lemon while NPCs blab about shit and you can't skip any of it, effectively killing the brevity of future replays.
>>723230989time for some IMMERSIVE and ATMOSPHERIC and REALISTIC male panting sounds when this HIGHLY AUGMENTED SUPER SOLDIER wearing SUPER ARMOR THAT COSTS MORE THAN AN ENTIRE TANK DIVISION has to move quickly for 3 seconds in 3 second intervalsthis is real PLAYER AGENCY, you could already JUMP and CROUCH in the OG and now you can SPRINT that's +33% MORE GAMEPLAYmake TACTICAL DECISIONS with the NEW AND IMPROVED SPARTAN VISION HUD that displays such things as your LAST KNOWN POSITION and predicted grenade tails BOTH ENEMY AND FRIENDLY with USER FRIENDLY INDICATORS FOR NEARBY THREATSRECOIL AND CURSOR BLOOM for more in depth combat, now you can CROUCH LIKE NEVER BEFORE, making the most out of your TACTICAL CROUCH with our new and patented CROUCH TECHNOLOGYthis is HALO for the GAMERS how it was always and originally INTENDED
Post your ideas for a new halo game that isn't just a remake.>Mount and Blade style open galaxy>You can be a marine, ONI spook, or spartan or whatever during the human-covvie war>Maybe have like a year or something of just the UNSC vs Innies for fun before the covvies show up>You can fight on the front lines, command your ship, do guerilla shit behind covenant lines, or even explore the galaxy to find forerunner shit for tech>All the while Chief is doing exactly what he did in the games and you can follow him or just let him do what he did alone
>>723231163Not only that, but also there were no separate levels anymore, they all seamlessly weaved into each other making it actually immersive instead of an arcade game with level 6, level 7s anymore. Reinforced the feeling that you are part of a real story, of a world. Sin did the same around the same time but that one was forgotten.
>>723231289Republic Commando but featuring Johnson, Stacker, Mendoza and Chips Dubbo taking place between the events of Halo 1, 2 and 3, including parts where they interconnect and explaining how this happenedLike ODST but better
>>723231219Please stop it's as if I'm really hearing one of those shitty dev interviews
>>723231343That's also shit. Means I can't replay specific segments of the game without creating saved states specific to those points in the game.
>>723230875nice downplayhalo changed everything about first person shootersbungie used to know what they were doingjust look it up i'm not going to spoonfeed youor remain ignorant since that's bliss when you're a retard
>>723231403Oh fuck yeah, that's what I wanted ODST to be in the first place.There is this one mod I saw on the MCC workshop that's kind of trying to make reach into a tactical shooter, where you play as an ODST fighting innies with super short time to kill, but it's kind of awkward because it's forced third person, and you can't actually command your squad mates all.
>>723230350>>723230352>>723230390>AKSHUALLY IT'S A HECKIN REMAKE NOT REMASTER!Utterly goy-brained consoomer spastics. Imagine buying the same shit 4 times and masturbating over>WELL DIS ONE HAS A NUUUU ENGINE!and thinking it's not the same.Unironically kys, cancer.
>>723231415NEVERi'm going to hire some normies to pretend to be real gamers and make a gameplay trailer that tries to convince you that this is GENUINE GAMEPLAY IN THE CO-OPERATIVE MULTIPLAYER MODE and that every event is happening SEAMLESSLY without a scriptwe're talking firing CASELESS PROJECTILES with SLO-MO that zooms in and shows you that the CARTRIDGE HASN'T EVEN BEEN FIRED as it flies towards the enemy and kills it in ONE HIT even though in game it takes at least SEVEN HITS to kill themAND YOU WILL LIKE IT
I don't like Sprint for Halo, just make them move faster since they are freak humans in super advance suits like Doom.However its hilarious that every fucking decade seems to spur this conversation again. Just wait for Halo 7 MP to have boosters like 5 again, which I also liked.
>>723231532>Unironically kys, cancer.Anon, this is a video game. You can't understand why fools are obsessed with "remakes."
>>723231532Remaster:>FF7 on Switch>RE2 on gamecubeRemake:>FF7 Intergrade>RE2 (2019)Halo CE Anniversary is the first one (a remaster).This new Halo remake is going to be like the second type.
>>723231471>halo changed everything about first person shootersYeah, by dumbing them down for console tards
>>723231017>completely redesigned the second half of the campaign so it's less repetitive and back-trackylollmao
>>723231801and making first person shooters actually fun
>>723231767It's the same game, you utter consoomer retard.
>>723231887>Already confirmed to have entirely different mechanics from the original game>IT'S DEH SAMEBrowns begone.
>>723231532>being this assmad over babys first FPSrelax and dilate
>>723231887It's literally not.It will likely be worse than the original like 99% of remakes, but that's besides the point.You're stupid.
>>723231801Everything Halo introduced to the genre was optional. Features and mechanics that were copied purely to chase the trend of Halo being the dog getting all the attention.Everything Half-Life introduced is cancer that has stuck around relentlessly and never fucked off. Even some modern imitation boomer shooters suffer from Half-Lifeitus where you can't fucking pick stages and you have to sit there waiting for dialogue to finish, because muh heckin story is so important in a game where you double jump and drink beer cans to heal.Fuck Half-Life, actual tumor of a franchise.
>>723231941>MUST CONSOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!Pathetic.
>>723232063Quote where I said I'm buying it, brownoid. You have a serious problem with your mental faculties.
>>723232010>literallyBack you go, faggot.
>>723231418That sounds like a very specific niche issue nobody aside from you have.>>723231471I don't need to look up anything. I lived through that era, I was a teenager at the time heavily into contemporary FPS games like Unreal Tournament, Quake 3, CS, Half-Life, etc. Halo adds literally nothing to the genre who was already familiar with it like me, aside from it being on consoles, which didn't concern me. I played it when it finally released on PC and I was underwhelmed. It was okay, but definitely only mid, some parts were even bad where there were lots of same looking room consecutively for like hours of gameplay.
>>723232104>brownoidPost your hand with timestamp. Only actual browns project that hard, Rajesh.
>>723232030I'm sorry that you have to live with terminal shit taste.
>>723232116Says the dumbass who doesn't know the difference between remaster and remake.You tourists are so dumb.
>>723230139Might as well rape its corpse at this point.Who cares anymore, the halo brand means nothing at this point.
>>723232171>That sounds like a very specific niche issue nobody aside from you have.You mean people who actually like playing video games and not your shitty "super serious" schlock. Games actually intended to be entertaining and replayable have stage selects, or are designed to be played in small bursts, all of them. If your FPS is 6+ hours long with no stage select, it's shit.
>>723232223Back2plebbit.
>>723232282It hasn't meant anything since Halo 3. It's been a corpse raped over and over and over for a decade.
>>723232309Absolutely nobody aside from you care about stage select. The rest of your drivel does not apply at all, everybody aside from you managed to have fun with the gameplay without stage select. You have the tism.
>>723232282It haven't meant anything for 15 years now and that wont change anytime soon.
>>723230139>Halo CE RemakeI literally dont give a fuck
>>723230350>>723230352Oh wow what a dramatic difference.It's still just fucking Halo 1 again.
>>723230519>better visuals>better physics engine>actually good multiplayer>tighter story>on a console so everyone could easily play itI love Half-Life, but it is definitely inferior to Halo in a lot of ways.
>>723232116that's the correct use of "literally"you are saying it's "figuratively" the same game but it's not because the 343 retards are making it from scratchit will play and look completely different from the original even if the level design is the same (it won't)
>>723230139I remember seeing the clip of the teaser for the demake and I could have sworn it looked AI generated, wouldn't be surprised if it was.
>>723230139Did they figure out how to make an open world yet? I want a Halo reboot to actually make the Halo the star of the fucking games.
>>723232472>no comment on the gameplayi'm nooticing
>>723232472No shit, it released years before it, and in case you need a reminder technology advanced lightning speed back then so those years made a massive difference. The point is that it was nothing speical compared to Half Life, its major innovations were already done. Multiplayer was actually extremely barebones compared to contemorary PC FPS games, so that's also a console only innovation.The game was only impressive to console players.
>>723232472>actually good multiplayerinb4 someone brings up counter strike
>>723232381You not caring is not everybody else not caring.>everybody aside from you managed to have fun with the gameplay without stage select.Yeah, I'm sure. Never see any gameplay clips for Half-Life in webm threads, not even when it's singleplayer focused.
>>723232483Back2plebbit.
>>723232612Way before you buddy. And it's a legitimate point.
>>723232601The gameplay is good, though. You can't chuck a grenade under a vehicle and splatter some enemies in Half-Life.
>>723230448Did you not play the games? Halo is the most holy thing according to their religion literally allowing you to become a god. Damaging Halo would be the most heretical thing you could do as an ayylien
>>723232328Ah, the good old days. Before I got an N7 hoodie that I wore too much I got pic related
>>723232626You caring is not everybody else caring. I don't play games to watch others' gameplay clips, you definitely have autism.
>>723232175Cry, Poojeet.
>>723232649Half-Life didn't ship with Counter-Strike, so no, it isn't.
>>723232717It literally doesn't matter whether it shipped with it or not.

>>723232706>Game is so unfun that nobody shares how "entertaining" it isYou smell like how Half-Life works as an experience, like shit. You 100% have a Reddit account and pontificate about Dark Souls lore.
>>723232171>Halo adds literally nothing to the genrekekyour bouncy bouncy rocket jumping faggotry was left behind meanwhile halo soared to the highest mountains and defined the next several eras of FPS gamesjust about the only thing it didn't pioneer was iron sightsit was a massive win for xbox and a solid demonstration of its hardwareeven certified "platinum" ps2 games like red faction were based off of halo

>>723232605>No shit, it released years before>The point is that it was nothing special compared to Half Life; its major innovations were already doneCan you get the narrative straight? SO it improved upon Half-Life in most respects, but it also isn't special because Half-Life already existed? What? There was nothing like Halo when it was released; everyone knows that. It's even better on PC than on console frankly.
A remake implies there's something wrong with the original but it shits over anything 343 ever made. Who the fuck are they to remake Halo?
>>723232765Trying to hard faggot.
>>723232751Kek, sure anon.>it doesn't need to be released with the game>it doesn't need to be created by the same devs>it doesn't need to be released at the same time

Why do grunts even exist?They are a non threat from a gameplay perspective and I don't think anyone ever died from them
>>723233725They are cannon fodder and exist to take the brunt of enemy forces however they are cowardly but make up for it with their numbers, like indians.
>>723233725they are fun to shoot at
>>723233725>gruntsThey're NPCs meant for funny moments.When you headshot them with a pistol, they explode into a shower of colorful confetti.
>>723230139> CE Remake againwhy tho, 3 needs it much more.
>>723230139>Remake>Completely destroying the feel of the original with unneeded "modern" gameplay changes, rendering the point of the remake moot.A tale as old as time.
>>723230139Halo died after Reach.Literally. Reach was Bungie's final sendoff before 343 utterly fucking dumpstered the franchise.
>>723232764Nigga you LITERALLY asked.Imagine being this BTFO that you don't even go silent and still need to double down.
>>723234054/thread
No one cares about Halo anymore
>>723234140Halo 4 was great though.
>>723234826What if I don't have a porn addiction though?
>>723234054Reach was shit too.
>>723230630this doesnt provide an adequate explanation for its success and only serves to prove that you were an illiterate child with no experience in videogames when it released.>golden age of videogames>Babys first FPS designed to accommodate the fact FPS is shit on controllers>Original XBOXfucking HELL
>>723234882halo 4 will cure you
>>723234826I think it's funny how 343 made the hottest Cortana but then immediately backpedaled and began covering her up and making her uglier with every entry afterward, it's as if they got taken over by faggots and envious foids.
>>723232416It is a pretty big difference. Remaster is the same game with new/upscaled/redrawn/master assets, engine change with a wrapper etc.. where as remake is made from the ground up and often takes significant liberties with story and mechanics. There are border cases like always, I think the first Kingdom Hearts was remade from ground up for a re-release.

>>723235159Many of the biggest games in recent years have been remakes, so it's understandable why more and more companies are jumping on the bandwagon.
>>723233654>two white people on the internet arguing that the other is Indianget a fucking grip on your life holy shit
>>723230519It's fun. The more I try to replay HL1, the more I really don't respect how frequently it takes you away from shooting gameplay.
>>723235198>CS>actually relevantonly with streamtranniesbut like all esports slop, no one actually enjoys playing it
>>723235125its not for fans, the game came out over 20 years ago, remakes are for children who heard about good media a few times but have been stuck on fortnite since they were able to walk and refuse to play anything unless its put infront of them. You need to bear in mind the example of Oblivion Remastered- there are children who have only ever played Skyrim despite the fact theyll lie about graphics not being important to seem intelligent and that the original has been available to experience since before they were born.devs cant get away with treating an audience like retards unless a significant and profitable amount of them ARE retards

>>723235270post your hand already
>>723230519Half Life fans will never understand kino
Halo CE is getting sprint because the imcompetent devs don't know how to design a shooter without it. Why do you think nu-DOOM is full of gimmickshit? It's obviously to compensate for their inability to design a proper strafe shooter.
>>723231471>halo changed everything about first person shootersHalofags are the tendies of shooters
>>723235682Im not either of the posters mentioned, you mean to tell me there are now potentially FOUR men on the internet, three of whom have accused the rest of being Indian in a halo thread?this is getting out of hand.
gaming is so fucked
>>723235825THEY'VE GONE UP THE VENTILATION SHAFT
>>723231874>fun is generated by removing the skill from skilled based activities so the unskilled can feel powerful>Halo removed the concept of having good aim or avoiding gunfire and so people with no hand idea coordination could enjoy shootersits actually pretty smart and not entirely false, unfortunately you ruined the entire genre by engaging in it sincerely
>>723235939
>>723235956yes, realistic physics and good enemy ai is more fun than aligning pixels on standing targets while only ever using the strongest weapon after acquiring it
>>723235956But in Halo headshots are incredibly important and finding cover when your shields deplete is a core part of the gameplay.
I hate that you can genuinely just never talk like a normal person about Halo on /v/.The conversation is always dominated by people who gas it too much or some breed of legacy gamers overreacting to them like spergs still bitter out trends from 20 years ago.
>>723236580It isn't hard to see why. Halo completely reoriented the industry around itself, killing the ancient FPS style of running through a level dispensing motionless enemies.
>>723236663>like spergs still bitter about trends from 20 years agoI didn't need an exact example anon but thanks anyway.
>>723230350haha sex
>>723230350Can you really carll a card that's been in someone's asscrack "mint"?
>>723234782I was surprised Infinite actually got a lot of players for its initial launch until people realized how bad and few the maps were, mixing PC and console lobbies, lots of bugs, "the UI can't handle a Team Slayer playlist", etc
>>723230519>He likes Half-LifeI bet you're on of those Sony niggers who thinks a game should be 80% story and 20% gameplay. Half-Life fucking SUCKS. I love standing around being talked at or driving boats pointlessly for hours on end. ITS SO FUN
>>723237538Half Life 1 and 2 aren't the same games you underage autistic retard
>>723236663People who say this cannot name a single game that was influenced by halo which contributed to this industry trend. Halo is pretty monolithic in the fact that most of its copycats were failures and halo's actual moment to moment gameplay wasn't really influential on the broader industry or was successfully integrated into other fps games.You are attributing to halo what is more rightly attributed to games like CoD and Medal of Honor.
that's fine. the gameplay in infinite was good. they fucked that game up in so many other ways. they'll still fuck up this one but the gunplay will probably be good. 5 and 6 genuinely had decent gunplay.>>723235694>Why do you think nu-DOOM is full of gimmickshit?it isn't? god forbid we experiment and make some unique FPS experiences. sorry every DOOM sequel isn't just DOOM 1 again and again.
sprint would completely change the game in a bad way. everyones gonna be sprinting with the pistol out and you won't be able to time anything
Given the current state of Destiny 2 and Bungie, would they have done any better than 343?
>>723230139>remake a game>ruin itCompanies need to stop doing this.
>>723238140YesThe problem with Destiny arose right after bungie split from microsoft. As a cost saving method Bungie fired most of their senior staff to avoid paying them pensions. All the old guard were layed off before Destiny even came out. The Bungie of Destiny 1 is a completely different company than the Bungie of Halo: Reach.If Bungie never left Microsoft that wouldn't have happened
>>723230139I know these cunts at xbox are retarded BUT HOW DO THEY CONSISTENTLY KEEP SURPASSING THEMSELVES???
>>723238128strange. that didn't happen in 5 on 6. hmmm...
>>723230139The GDC talks given by Jaime Griesemer are some of the most enlightening bits of halo gameplay info I have ever seen.Halo CE in particular is an excercise in specific gameplay concepts. How timing cause and effect are used to communicate specific sandbox interactions to the player etc.If Griesemer isn't at least a gameplay consultant on this remake, it's going to fucking crash and burn.

Halo is dead

>>723230139what the fcuk does moderne ven mean anymore in this context it seems to mean gameplay from 13 years ago
>>723243280But elites were kino
>>723240210Cortana was always pure sex.
>>723230139>343 regularly drops the ball with halo>has a large stockpile of games they do nothing with>literally NO exclusives>has the dumbest console names imaginable What the actual fuck is wrong with Microsoft. How the fuck did Xbox mess up THIS bad?
What’s the justification from 343 for the covenant trying to genocide humanity if the forerunner thing was retconned anyway?I thought the whole point was the prophets were panicking that their authority would be undermined if the news got out.
>>723230519It was THE multiplayer xbox game for almost a decadeit was also good until after 3.
>>723243905The competency crisis effects ALL levels, including management.
>>723244052The only part I liked about Reach was invasion
>halo has become one of the rapidly growing IP's that have more bad games than good>this is becoming the norm>still no industry crash
>>723243905They literally hired people who disliked the previous Halo games to work on the franchise after 3 and Reach.Its honestly kind of amazing how bad MS has fucked up this gen, all their flagships became disasters after leaving the devs that made them.
Halo more like Gaylo
>>723230139I will not be buying a Halo game with sprint.I literally would not care if it outright makes the game objectively better at this point (not that it does), because it shows clearly that 343 literally cannot learn from their mistakes.I don't care what happens. They cannot win me over with sprint. It's that simple.
>>723244387Industry wide crash is probably a ways off but this is definitely Microsoft’s last console gen and likely the start of them scaling back their vidya sector across the board.If TES6 flops like Shartfield did and the rest of Microsoft’s flagship ips are irredeemably fucked it’s just over.
>>723244387>still no industry crashYeah, well a gaggle of retards buy shitty lootboxes, battlepasses, and skins in quite literally every game nowadays.Even if it's a minority of people spending money on microtransactions, it's enough revenue coming in to prevent total collapse and shield them from the consequences of shit products.There are absolutely people here, in this thread, that preordered their digital edition of BF6. Think about that a bit.
>>723243823>AI has boob jiggleFor what purpose?
>>723231289You're just describing "u can do anything" without any thought as to how it makes an actual game, anon.>You can fight on the front lines, command your ship, do guerilla shit behind covenant lines, or even explore the galaxy to find forerunner shit for techNo one game can make all of these engaging. Any attempt to do so would be horribly retarded and unfocused.>Mount and Blade style open galaxyThis basically necessitates an open faction system, not a Halo style defined concept. It is critical to how this style of systemic world works, and without it the game would be pointless and boring. Also choosing mount and blade instead of fucking Starsector as the point of comparison for your space game is a bizarre choice.>All the while Chief is doing exactly what he did in the games and you can follow him or just let him do what he did aloneThe gameplay ideas you described above show a highly systemic game that do not effectively merge with scripted specific actions like this, at all.I expect better from random wishful thinking /v/ posts, please think about what you type next time before hitting submit.
>>723243905Quite literally every single thing Microsoft has ever touched has turned to shit.This is not unique to modern Xbox, or Xbox in general, or their gaming division in general.They're a terrible, retarded company that only got anywhere by being in the right place at the right time to get a very important monopoly.
>>723244816I'd add that the industry is much wider spread than it was 20 years ago. Every country with a computer lab has a game dev nowadays. I'd expect a industry slouch and not a crash. US development crashing and the money injections that come with that will cause massive realignment, but games have become the dominant entertainment, financially speaking.
>the franchise responsible for ruining fps forever will try to fix itwhat a joke
>>723230519things get popular by luck and then insist upon themselvesthere's not a single thing you can look back upon that doesn't have large group insist it's overrated trash
>>723244457>halo and gears relegated to the reboot slop mines in a desperate last attempt to reignite interest>fable is deader than dead>bethesda is swirling the toilet bowl>rareware completely gutted and then killed off, all of their original ips squandered>blizzard is blizzard>don’t know or care about forza but they probably found a way to ruin that tooMicrosoft is worse than Disney when it comes to running popular ips into the ground.

>>723246139This is the ODST 2 gamers deserve
Microsoft will make Cortana a vtuber. It will fail worse than the chucky cheese twitch channel. Microsoft will purchase the intellectual rights to Ring World. They will "remaster" it with ai. Microsoft will team up with Tesla to create warthogs (wrapped cyber trucks).

>>723231289frankly with how big a hit Helldivers 2 was I would just rip them off and make it Halo. All the old Halo fans I know were all over that game
>>723246853*ahem*
>>723230139ENDLESS TRASH
>>723246897For some reason 343 is hellbent on axing co-op features from Halo despite being a major appeal since the first one.
>>723246897Xbox divers freed the city of New Mombasa even thought it wasn't an objective and they patrol it constantly.It was even acknowledge in-game by the devs.
>>723230519halo was tribes for consoletards
Halo anniversary is the point of no return in halo series.
>>723247248No singleplayer though.Part of the reason Halo took off was that it was the whole package, a full campaign with co-op support and a fun multiplayer mode. That was pretty uncommon for the time. You either had multiplayer focused FPS where the singleplayer is just mp maps with bots, or singleplayer FPS that miiiiight have a shitty versus mode tacked on.
>>723247729Halo 3 coop was a ton of fun.
>>723230519Compare fighting vortigaunts to Elites and tell me Halo isn't way better than Half Life. lol
>>723248143I dunno man I love instagibbing vorts with the shotgun alt fire
>>723233725Grunts exist to cause grenade chain explosions that reach you fifty feet away.
>>723248081I played for two players, it is true that halo 3 coop is up to 4 players in splitscreen? I mean campaign mode.
>>723239587>it won't have co-op.Then why the fuck would I buy it? I've already played and beat the first fucking game. Both multiplayer and co-op are incredibly popular by just looking at the steam achievements.
>>723248517I think it was only two player splitscreen, its four player co-op but the other two people have to be online.
>>723248780They don’t understand the appeal of their own franchise.343 was legitimately confused when Infinite came out and people were asking where the splitscreen mode was.
>>723248910>just checked steam>1k players in a free gameoof
>>723249387>1k players in a free game Halo is dead, so why is Microsoft wasting money to remake the first one?Why not make a prequel about humanity's first contact with aliens?
>>723248910Wish I had it on this PC, but its an image with a bunch of quotes on how 343 has done nothing but consistently fuck up since Halo 4.
Humans are Forerunners.
>>723249793Remakes of already popular games theoretically have guaranteed returns.Halo is in such a dire state that you wouldn’t be able to convince any of the higher ups to take a gamble on anything new and risky.
>>723250335That reminds me of a quote from Halo2. The gravemind says "I am a monument to all your sins." What the fuck would that even mean if we assume that humans weren't the forerunners? The way they do the scene he says that directly after Cortana asks chief "What is that?" almost as if it can 'hear' her.
>>723230519I think it was a case of being at the right time and place. I was a preteen when it released and I remember the experience of having an Xbox and playing Halo, and it was an experience. It was new and shiny, the graphics were such that I'd never seen before. The opening level of Halo with its beautiful skybox and driving a jeep through canyons and bumpy terrain gave the illusion of freedom and scale. Being able to play with a friend after school or at the weekend was even better, it was a lot of fun. It had a decent single player that was also playable with a friend, but its multiplayer only got better with each game and with the introduction of Xbox Live it really took off. I think if you're playing it more recently, removed out of the time it was produced in, then it's definitely not going to seem like much, especially if you didn't experience it at its peak.
>>723230139Why are they obsessed with modern gameplay mechanics
>>723250352>Halo is in such a dire state that you wouldn’t be able to convince any of the higher ups to take a gamble on anything new and risky.What I mean is, we got a prequel for Gears of War, so why can't Halo get one?
>>723230139Yes, you want Halo CE with HD graphics or original graphics along with its old ass gameplay, go play it on MCC.>>723230273lmao, dumbass
>>723247248>grandpa is fighting a war he lost 20 years ago
>>723250758Were Elites even on Harvest? I thought it was just brutes grunts and buggers. Seeing Johnson again might be cool though.
>>723230139The only way this turns out good is if it includes cut levels, Halo CE was at one point meant to have twice as many missions
>>723250858>even more gigantic empty hallway levelsyaaaaay
>>723250758They plenty of materials from books, shouldnt be hard to adapt one.
>>723230519This nigga will never had a 16 kid lan party sleepover and it shows
>>723250697Zoomers shit and piss themselves whenever they play anything that doesn't have TLOU controls.
>>723250591Frank's writing and 343 would explain that quote as "woo, spooky".
>>723232715>yuropoorLmaooooo
>>723230519Normalfags saw it, played the MP, and thought it was some social shit because it reminded them of some PC multiplayer shooters. When it got online, it blew up, when Sony screwed the pooch with the PS3, Snoys left PlayStation and became Xbots and got into the series with Halo 3, it then went from a sweaty bug-infested game to some casual shit for some social faggots. Halo fell when Sony took over again with the PS4, from there what was left were lore autist and the normal schizos that never left. If you want me to be realistic, it was only big here in the US because the normalfags here took a likely to Xbox, the rest of the world wasn't retarded and got a PS3 the moment it became affordable and dropped this piece of shit. Glad Xbox is dead some maybe the Xbots can heal from their mental illness like the rest of the US is starting to do.
>>723237538Not him but did you really just say this when Halo's like 90% cutscene, 10% repetitive gameplay, lol?
>>723251158>to some casual shit for some social faggots.LmaoSeeing poor, jealous of the people around him having fun.
>unreal engine >brought to you by the trannies who were hired because they hate HaloIt will be fucked on a fundamental level.
>>723248143Fighting and killing Vortigaunts was fun, Elites were bullet sponges that did the same shit, they were only dumb down further with sequels. They're overrated like their games.
>>723251308I have the damn game, there was nothing special about it. Every time, I played on my 360, it made me miss, playing Nintendo, PlayStation, and PC games, hell Sega was better. Xbox was only great for the original one. Xbox made me believe that gaming went to shit when the real problem was just that the Xbox fucking sucks.
>>723251353Vortigaunts just stand in place and have one easily dodgeable move and you call that "fun"
>>723250758It got a shitty COD-inspired one in 2010.
>>723251664yes
>>723230875>It really wasn't anything special,Bullshit. Everyone remembers the first level on the Halo exactly because it was impressive. What other FPS at the time had such huge levels that you could traverse in vehicles and with squad mates? What other FPS at the time had that sort of enemy AI and animations? None of the reviews I can find from the time were "lukewarm" about it. You really are downplaying it
>>723251781half life fags everyone
>>723250591What could the creature literally made of the corpses of other races mean by it being a monument to their sins?What a kind of retarded question is that? Interpreting it as some literal "your people created me five billionty years ago and that's a mistake" instead of poetry like every other one of Gravemind's line is beyond retarded.It is truly insane that 343 managed to fuck the series up so much that it bred you "humanity = forerunner" retards.
>>723251664Yes, that's fun, Elites slow the game down further. If Halo wanted to copy Half-Life's Run, Think, Shoot, Live gameplay, it could have at least try to make you think.
>>723251746I’m glad people are finally starting to see Reach for the tripe that it was. If that was the direction the series was headed I don’t blame Bungie for ducking out (even if they went on to do pretty much the exact same shit anyway).
>>723230139I had a dream about an alternative Halo 1, and the intro was similar to Reach in that you don't expect the covenant until you suddenly see them toward the end of the level. Chief was exploring a forerunner facility with a vast empty chasm and pitfall as is common in the Halo 1 facilities, and toward the end of the level in a part of the facility with a bunch of hidey spots in a vast yet cluttered room with another huge pitfall he finally encounters a few squads of scattered grunts that all aggro at the same time. You're meant to run toward the end of the level for extraction while killing a few of them along the way, and the longer you take the more grunts show up. I actually felt gamer fear when about 50 grunts showed up and I had to swap my pistol and AR with their plasma pistol and needler because I decided to keep killing them, then I finally ran away.
>>723251891The flood doesn't require corpses and the gravemind was already on Delta halo before the covies/humans even showed up so your explanation doesn't even make sense.
>>723251891see >>723250335
>>723251921Who wants Half Life's shit gameplay
>>723251664Why are you so hung up on vorts?hecu marines are more of a direct analog for how elites fight.
>>723252061I do because it’s fun. I enjoy both games because I’m based like that.
>>723251659So you played alone and had no friends, we get it, but that was back in 2007.Its time to get over your trauma anon.
>>723231132love how insane and impossible the final level is given the ships geometry.Also, random lore drop: the ships look the way they are because they are one gigantic long coilgun barrels, with a spaceship built around them. Yeah, they have a gun that size and the only way they can win against the Covenant in a space battle is by having 10x more ships; and even then they take something like 90% losses.
>>723252061Far better than Halo's gameplay. Only Halo game I enjoyed was the first one and that was because of the vehicles. Scarabs were fun in 3 but they were too short and Bungie kept repeating them.>>723252146This, and they're more fun to fight than Elites too.
>>723252146>hecu marinesAnd that might mean something if Half Life wasn't 60% platforming, puzzle solving, and vent crawling with like 2 levels total where you fight marines. And bringing up the marines exposes another problem with Half Life's gameplay. It's not combining enemy types. Halo's Elites and combat works because of how they fight with other enemies together.
>>723230989>Reminder that chief's move speed in CE is still faster than sprinting in reach.I don't remember all their abilities, but can't Spartan IIs sprint indefinitely? Meaning that you already are sprinting in the game whenever you move.I do remember they have so good reflexes that as a 14 year old kid they could permanently disable 3 adult soldiers in a fistfight.
>>723230139Which character will Debra Wilson play in this remake?
>>723252282If you need to play a game with friends to enjoy it, it's not a very good game. Golden Eye and Perfect Dark had multiplayers but the singleplayers were fun to play alone. Don't even get me started on Turok and Half-Life. People bitch about playing with friends all the time with Halo because Bungie phoned it in on the singleplayer. Why did Marathon shit on Halo doing both singleplayer and multiplayer?
>>723252441>level design is badwell I see why you like CE so much now
>>723252441>And that might mean something if Half Life wasn't 60% platforming, puzzle solving, and vent crawling with like 2 levels total where you fight marinesOh, I see now, you just hate playing actual video games.
>>723252473well the marines ran as fast as chief did in CE so idk what that means
>>723252657>>723252658>A "first person shooter" should have barely any shooting in it. And it should be fucking shit too.
>>723252057>The flood doesn't require corpsesThe entire premise of the flood is their consumption and absorption of other sentient life. Lore-dump technicalities from elsewhere does not change this very simple fact that is the obvious point of the line.>and the gravemind was already on Delta halo before the covies/humansThere is no way you are this autistic. Even for your own argument that level of literalism doesn't make any sense.>>723252058>see this thing which wasn't in the gameNo, I will not. It wasn't done for a reason, which is because it's retarded and makes no sense.
>>723252543>johnson is now a tranny
>>723230139why do we need sprint if overwatch can pull 50k concurrent players per day in 2025 where LITERALLY 1 DUDE HAS SPRINT. I fucking hate microjeet fuck you fucking pieces of shit.
>>723252778at this point I’m starting to think you never even played half life
>>723252473You were still slow as shit, Infinite has the fastest movement speed in the series both with and without sprint, Chief has the highest base health and shields in the series, it was the first Halo singleplayer made with PC in mind. God, Infinite had the potential to be the best Halo game in the series. Dammit all
>>723252830"Last time, you asked me, if it was my choice, would I do it? Having had considerable time to ponder your query, my answer has not changed. There is no choice. We must activate the ring.""You can't imagine how exciting this is! To have a record of all our lost time-human history, is it?. Oh, how I will enjoy every moment of its categorization. To think that you would destroy this installation, as well as this record... I am shocked. Almost too shocked for words.""You are the child of my makers. Inheritor of all they left behind. You are Forerunner!"
>>723252872Overwatch is only popular because of porn.Marvel Rivals has the right idea of making it third person so you can always stare at your character’s ass while you play.
>>723252778Half-Life is filled with shooting elements, it's also, you know, a VIDEO GAME. Halo was the start of dumb down movie shit in games that would get worse the more money Microsoft poured into it.
>>723252903I did. How am i wrong? The first two hours is doing fuck all but jumping and shooting crabs. Dogshit boring game lol
>>723253183Are you nearly fucking 50?
>>723253109< THIS IS NOT RECLAMATION > the Oracle boomed. < THIS IS RECLAIMER >Slowly the glyph turned upside down, and its central shapes—the concentric circles, one low inside the other, connected by a thin line—took on a different aspect. The shapes’ previous arrangement had resembled the pendulum of a clock. Inverted, the glyph now looked like a creature with two curved arms locked above its head. The glyph shrunk in size as the hologram zoomed out to show the entire alien world, covered with thousands of these newly oriented Luminations.< AND THOSE IT REPRESENTS ARE MY MAKERS >Now it was Fortitude’s turn to feel weak in the knees. He grasped the arms of his throne and tried to come to terms with an impossible revelation: each glyph represented a Reclaimer, not a relic, and each Reclaimer was one of the planet’s aliens—which could only mean one thing. “The Forerunners,” the Minister whispered. “Some were left behind.”
>>723253220Are you so mentally handicapped that you need a game to not make you use your brain?
>>723253183>Half-Life is filled with shooting elements,So is Halo.
>>723253109I am aware of all of those lines, having played the games instead of jerking off over wiki arguments. Quoting them blankly is not an argument. None even vaguely invalidate that humanity are the successors of the forerunners. In particular, the last one very explicitly explains that humanity are NOT the forerunners themselves, but are their successors.
>>723253183>Halo was the start of dumb down movie shit in gamesIn what way?Halo caused many cancerous trends. "Movie shit" is not at all one of them.
>>723230519you missed out, anyone who plays halo now will never understand why it was hyped
>>723253448Ironically you could pin that more on Half-Life
>>723251931Reach got viewed more favorably over time for the most part. Partly because of being compared to 343's games, partly because its fans are the last remaining vocal fans of Bungie's games since CE, 2, and 3 are even older
>>723253348Halo is shoot, hit switch, drive a vehicle. That's the entire game, they only turn that on its head like twice with the pulse generators and Fusion Reactor engines. Game doesn't even have boss fights. Am I even a supersoldier?
>>723253448What is Halo 2, you monkey?
>>723253604A videogame.Would you like to make an argument instead of gesturing vaguely at a game you dislike?
>>723233595
>>723231667Sorry anon we need a dedicated sprint button. You might think you dont, but actually you do.
>>723253534>halo doesn't have enough epic setpieces>therefore it invented moviegamesAre you genuinely mentally retarded?
>when your game is so great that the most famous and iconic part is when you drive a car in a straight line while epic music plays in the background
>>723253534that's what a shooter is supposed to do. Half Kike is a bunch of shit that isn't shooting.
>>723230220Sprint was a pc mechanic long before a console one. Controller has variable axis whereas m&k is binary. On console, running was done by just pushing the stick all the way forward. On pc, you had to toggle or hold the run button or double tap forward to move at full speed. Sprint as we see it today is an immersion feature. It doesn't make a whole lot of sense when you think about it but most people don't. It's designed to make you think you're in an action movie.
>>723253298The only people that talk this way about fucking halo of all things are retards that are OLDER THAN ME!So your ass is in your 40s and sitting on /v/ complaining about the impact of a goddamn twenty four year old video game.Holy shit. You should be embarrassed, dude. Thank god 4chan is anonymous, right?
>>723231053BUT YOU DONT EVEN LIKE THE NEW SHIT
>>723230139I'm too tired to be upset. I'm just disappointed how this franchise has been mishandled.
>>723253876Halo CE has shit level design and shit combat encounters.If I just wanted to run around shooting aliens in an empty field I would go play Serious Sam instead. At least that game is fun.
>>723230220fpbp
>>723253919You almost couldn't be more wrong if you tried.>On console, running was done by just pushing the stick all the way forwardConsole joysticks have never been meaningfully designed for partial inputs; they are simply too small to hold at a partial angle for an extended period.Regardless, for both console and PC there, what you are describing is just controlling speed. Doom or half-life has you holding (or toggling) a run mode to make you move faster, sure, but that isn't a videogame sprint. The sprint feature which people are talking about is one that locks you out of other actions and into movement to achieve extra speed.That is a feature that was endemic to consoles.>It's designed to make you think you're in an action movie.No, it's designed to trick you into thinking you're doing something when all you're doing is moving from A to B. Instead of seeing that as just moving, you think of it as making a choice to sprint.
>>723253449I played Half Life for the first time decades after it was released and I understood why it was so hyped up at the time. I played Halo and it's kinda mid even after taking the age of release into account.
>>723253534>Game doesn't even have boss fights.Yeah, I bet you love this cringey shit, don't you?
>>723254169CE has good level design and amazing combat encounters, stop being a retard. The game was famous for reusing very explicit combat arenas with abstract geometry, not combat on flat fields. The only fights on empty fields are a couple in assault on the control room and like, the beach fight on cartographer.Most are in doors in tight rooms that promote highly dynamic engagements that flow around in controllable ways due to the AI doing a lot to react to the player's actions.
>>723254169CE level design puts emphasis on the action. Which is a good thing. Unlike Half Life's where one moment you're crawling through a vent, backtracking, or doing something that isn't shooting.>shit combat encounters.Halo doesn't need gimmicky scripted combat encounters like Half Life because the ai fundamentals and gameplay provide the excitement dynamically and organically. That's why a single room can be repeated dozens of times and still be fun because it plays out differently each and every single time, and through combinations of enemy placements creates different combat encounters.
>>723230139its cool that this image can soon be updated for the modern /v/
>>723253381The last one explicitly explains that humanity are exactly Forerunner, without ambiguity. Very curious how you read "our lost time - human history", "those [glyphs] it represents are my makers", and "you are Forerunner" as not being overt, on-the-nose confirmation that the only remaining Forerunners were primitive humans on Earth.Also: "I will hammer your cities until no stone lies atop another. I will drive your people back into the caves they never should have left."
>>723254169We get it, you decrepit fuck. You're old.
>>723254340>they are simply too small to hold at a partial angle for an extended period.literal skill issue lmaofind healthier ways to cope lol
>>723254543You're too fucking old to still be posting this shit on here.
>>723231053New shit comes out every day.
>>723230139as long as they balance chief's movement around the sprint mechanic, I'd be fine with it, in the og he already walked fast enough that you were practically already sprinting all the time, so traversing the map didn't feel slow at all, therefore no need for sprinting mechanicsdunno about the other "modern" gameplay mechanics tho
>>723230989That's cause he's a literal Anunnaki ubermensch and also partially cybernetic and towering over Spartan-IIIs.
>>723230519The best AI and best level design>AIAll AI react according to your actions and their differing patterns gives a very fair challenge to your approach. They're not chess masters, but they give you a good run for your money.>Level designMany people mock Halo for being a corridor shooter, but the game takes great strides to change things up. There's always a change up that you have to respond to and play differently. Even when reusing assets and levels, they keep each encounter fresh and fun.It's not a titan of skill, but a titan of fun. It's just challenging enough to push you back, but not force you to learn every encounter.
>>723232030maybe you’d be satisfied playing quake forever and ever but personally i like my video games to be actually interesting experiences
>>723231289Halo ODST 2 with open world (in a city) and quest lines>Help guerilla militias fend off the Covenant>Do some secret shit for ONI>Do strikes on tactical targets>Help locals with their questsThe main focus being on New Mumbasa as a city and how it reacts to the environment. What villainous plot is the covenant up to? What dark secrets lie in ONI? How can hope survive? That shit.
>>723253758Filled with cinematic cutscenes up the ass, a crappy gimmick that doesn't even feel different, and very linear gameplay that makes Halo's CE linear levels look open in comparison.>>723253849It's cutscene slop
>>723254974>partially cyberneticThey had enhancements like unbreakable bones, super sensitive eyes, increased muscle density and turbocharged reflexes, but they weren't cybernetic. The only mechanical crap in them was a brain interface on the back of their heads so they could control the Mjolnir armor. But that's just a brain chip, not a robot arm.
>>723255361This is the single best idea I've seen in a long while
>>723232559>>723255361>muh open worldHalo is doomed.
>>723255361>What dark secrets lie in ONI?aside from some gay shit from the books, nothingevery military has a need to know basis and the last thing a common grunt who may get captured needs to know is the extent to which humanity understands forerunner technology and their plans to use it against the people who captured that common gruntthis idea that oni is anything more than just spec ops has always bugged mereminds me of the hobos who rave about the masons but then you look into it and they're just having dinner together and making business deals
>>723253876A shooter is a video game, right? Shouldn't I be playing a video game while shooting? One of the reasons Sonic went to shit was because it went from a platformer that required knowledge of the level design to straight line boost shit, Gotta go fast.
>>723255676The hub area in ODST was almost sort of that. I don’t like Farcry style open world but a scaled up version of New Mombasa with standard linear levels mixed in could be neat.
>>723230139>Babbys first FPS updated with even more rounded corners for brand new babbiesI fail to see the issue
>>723254683You can only be too young for 4chan.
>>723254074Is this confirmation that you're a zoomy zoom zoom?
>>723255456That's nothing compared to the cybernetic implants picrel has. He would stomp the covenant single-handedly too.
>>723255736ONI is just another version of the US's FBI and CIA, but on a galactic scale. Do you know what CIA and FBI get up to when no one is watching? A lot of shit. MKUltra, assassinations, drug trafficking, and that is from evidence that hasn't been destroyed. The Spartans are a human experimentation project carried out with GOOD effects. What happens if they carried out other human experiments where things went wrong?
>>723256349nta but you forgot to mention The Finders
>>723254169This
>>723254478The Submonitor fight was fun, Infinite had the best boss fights in the series. That's honestly kind of sad.
>>723233725fuel rod grunts can rape you tho
>>723235082erotic back of the knee
>>723255676It's not supposed to be open world, as in vast expanses of nothingness with locations in-between, but just a large city. It will heavily lean into the urban warfare department with a few breaks between it. ODST had a hub where you could find secrets, move between covenant patrols, and follow storylines of the people who evacuated. It'd be more of going through neighborhoods alleys to slip past covenant patrols, fighting in large office buildings, escorting through sewers, escaping on highways, sifting through suburbs to find militia holdouts before the covenant does.
>>723254169For me it's not so much that but more of the fact that playing on Legendary is not very fun, you are basically a glass cannon minus the cannon. >inb4 don't play on legendary thenDifficulty is content so I'm gonna play it, it just seems like it wasn't fully play-tested properly.
>>723230139GIVE US GAYLO 3 ANNIVERSARY (not made by 343) ALREADY!
>>723256349yeah in the booksnothing like that happens in the games
>>723256905Are you kidding? Legendary Halo CE is very lenient and lets you get away with a lot. If you're not good enough to play that, you should go to Heroic in order to learn the game.
>>723234826Just becuase you jerk off to Cortana, doesn't make Halo 4 good.So weird that coomers think ths.
>>723257017>Why wasn't Dr. Oppenheimer mentioned in Band of Brothers?
>>723256905you vill use ze plasma pistol chuddie
>>723254543>he's so stuck in the past that he still thinks this 24 year old game is babby's first fps
>>723256909too bad they're not a Microsoft subsidiary, but I'd love it if they gave DICE the reins over a halo 3 anniversary
>>723254543I don't think the main problem was inherently Halo, but just the Xbox, in general. Microsoft should have never got involved with console gaming, they damaged both the console and PC industry. Halo was less Bungie's fault and more Xbox's fault. I wish Bill Gates would have went through with killing Xbox for not being the DirectX Box that used a gaming version of Windows and playing PC games. Shit could have been the Steam Deck in 2001.
>>723257086we're talking about a new game idea, not a new book ideaobviously you're not interested in an honest discussion
>>723257097It will always be babby’s first fps, from now until the end of time.
>>723257075just because you cut your dick off doesn't mean everyone is a trannyfaggot like (You)
>>723257097Babby's first FPS for Babby's first console trying to be a PC, it fits well.
>>723257182Why can't it be a plot in a game?
>>723257227>>723257319all fps games are for babys. It's the most retarded casual baby genre there is and always was.
>>723230139They might as well add the spastic movement from cod.
>>723257319I think like 2 kids in total owned an xbox. I cant think of a less "babby's first console", whatever that means, than xbox.
>>723257552Cope bitch, admit that Xbox neutered Halo like it neutered everything else including this industry.
>>723257692valve did that with half life and steam
>>723230139Does the art not look like shit at least?Do the new sounds not sound like shit at least?The Skywalker ranch production recorded their choir singing the Halo theme off key and missed a couple beats and they fucking put it in anyways.
>>723257692>difficulty selectionDoom has always been gay babyshit
>>723230273Wdym? It's never been remade. Just shitty mod packs.
>>723253071>Infinite had the potential to be the best Halo game in the series.In no fucking timeline or reality is this true. Not with that team of retards behind it, not with those writers, not with the open world shit, not with the shitty plastic looking armor and the rest of the awful visuals, not with everything else that was wrong with it from the start.It was doomed before they even started making it, before they even got to the planning stages.And even if by some miracle it ended up as a good game despite all of this, it still wouldn't have been shit compared to the original trilogy.Let go anon, the franchise is just an empty husk. Don't expect anything from it, not while it's under MS.
>>723257827Valve made Half-Life work for controllers while not forgetting PC, Half-Life is perfect for Steam Deck. Valve also revived the PC gaming industry that Microsoft tried to kill. Microsoft literally, and I mean literally neutered the entire damn game industry, consoles and PCs. Those bastards couldn't even leave third parties out of it. This companies deserve more hate, I'm glad they're about to just become third parties and kill the Xbox entirely. A complete failed experiment.
>>723257974infinite lost me artistically, not only the plastic armor or the brutes that looked like my grandpa, but also the environment looked so bland
>>723257889You choose the difficulty you select
>>723248143Yeah, Elites are so much more fun to fight. I threw a grenade at one and all he did was stare at it until it blew up. Their AI is smart too.
>>723257974Bullshit, you could see the potential all throughout the game, but I forgot, Halo faggots aren't gamers, just a bunch of normal faggots. I mean there's a reason some of you like this steaming pile of shit Halo game here >>723235082.
>>723257552cry about it map painter spergazoid
>>723257368because none of the games have represented it as suchthey have in fact represented it as the opposite the shadowy shit in the games happens with the corrupt cops in odst and the covenant in halo 2why do you people think it needs to be in the games in that form?
How long will the honeymoon phase last? I'm only asking since the Oblivion remake had one, which shocked me since it was the very definition of UE5 slop.
>>723258453until Microsoft stops paying the jeets to shill it here
>>723258253Nah, you're bordering on delusional. Also the other posters are just bullshitting, nobody thinks Halo 4 was good either, they just like the Cortana design.
>>723258253Retarded CEbab
>>723258453It depends since it's getting a PC and PlayStation release. Not even Microsoft gives a shit about Xbots anymore, kek.
>>723258652Xbots are an endangered species, why would Microsoft care?
>>723257265I never said I don't jerk off to Cortana.Why do Whites always think something is an attack on them?
>>723258453cheap UE5 demakes will continue to be made until shareholder stocks improve
>>723258598>>723258636Sounds like you shitters are coping, your game sucks, but I don't blame Bungie, it's not their fault, never was, it was always Microsoft's Xbox team fault, glad they're dying.
>>723230139>remake>remaster>re-imaginingI DON'T GIVE A SHIT
>>723230935Was SOCOM
>>723258124Aka baby shit
>>723257227At a certain point you just have to leave something in the past and move on. The first Halo game hasn't been babby's first FPS for years, that mantle was taken up by games like CoD, Battlefield, Valorant and CS:GO. And I don't like Halo 1 that much, either. It's a gimped PC shooter with some fun moments here and there but the entire second half of the game sucks ass, controls are neutered for the consolefags and it's very style>substance most of the time.
>>723258990>I don’t blame BungieAfter seeing what an independent modern Bungie looks like I do. Scamming Sony was based though.
We have to go back.
Xbox is actually fucking dead. I went to GameStop the other day to pick up a copy of BF6 and they didn't have any. Not only that but the Xbox section was relegated to a corner behind the counter-line. I had to ask the employee permission to crossover and look at their selection. Also Target and Walmart are barely selling anything and they've pretty much pulled hardware off shelves. Microsoft is pulling the plug.
>>723259247not him but it was inevitable given the state of the industry and how it became progressively gayer and feminized for the past decade, also didn't help that most of the OG devs retired or quit so now bungie is stuck with activists, diversity hires and foids who should be flipping burgers instead of developing vidya
>pokemania dies out by 2001>haylo comes out>literally nothing to compete against, final fantasy peaked and jayrpgs go into background, indie scene isn't there yet, steam is too small to be relevant yet>haylo 2 has no competition for 2004>call of duty 4 comes out in 2007>haylo 3 comes out>modernwarfare 2 mogs shit out of halo in 2009>no one gives a shit about any other FPS when black ops 1 comes out in 2010>2011 is battlefield versus call of duty>halo 4 is a joke, GTA V kills all AAA competition until fartnight comes outliterally what made halo big other then being in a vacuum? 2001-2006 was dark ages until industry pivoted and more options came out. If call of duty or battlefield was earlier it would've obsoleted halo faster.
>>723259247Xbox installed their rot in Bungie when they finally went independent. This is why I'm happy Microsoft Corp. has had enough of Xbox's bullshit and is finally killing off that cancerous tumor.
>>723230519It basically shifted the paradigm of the industry. Previously most shooters were twitch reflexes, now you had a non-Doom aim assist and something balanced around joysticks with the two-stick setup becoming fully standardized. Characters weren't bunnyhopping super demons, they're folks with an analog movement pace that don't need a run button, plus floaty jumps built for traversal first. Enemy AI isn't strictly march at the player and shoot, they would run for cover, evade grenades, try to use formations for weaker enemies up front with the tougher enemies coming from the back, etc, and the AI actually got better the higher in difficulty you got. Basic maps and set dressing for what were mostly on-foot shooter affairs were shifted into basic setpiece design ahead of its time, and large battlefields with vehicles, opposing factions, and a scale you just didn't get in most games period unless you were a PC title like Battlezone, or the rare one-off game like Carnage Heart on PS1. And come 2's release, it outright standardized match lobbies, friend systems, clans, and a much younger form of matchmaking as we know it today, straight up. You could do some of these on PC - but rarely were they integrated into a game directly.By today's standards a lot of it seems quaint, and by the standards Half-Life set it all feels relatively minor by comparison since HL set the bar for narrative structured, seamless adventures in first person. But even without dual wielding and vehicle hijacking yet, 2001 for Halo CE was both a streamlined arena shooter for consoles that got basically everything right, AND it essentially had the makings of a non-class Battlefield equivalent on consoles. Which, frankly, Battlefield itself never quite lived up to until the next damn decade, and its campaigns sure as hell never reached the breadth of what Halo campaigns offer for raw gameplay despite both being linear shooter affairs.What's unimpressive now was a big deal in 2001-2007.
>>723259439I don’t know a single person who owns a xbox sex. I’m the only person I know with an xbone and I barely used the thing for anything but rare replay. These past two console gens have been an absolute sham but Microsoft has the worst of it.
>Halo 7What happened to 6?
>>723258990>but I don't blame Bungie, it's not their fault, never was, it was always Microsoft's Xbox team fault, glad they're dying.qrd? i know halo was originally meant to be a PC game (and the third marathon title) but whatdid the xbox team do to the game?
>>723230519It had an awesome world/style/sounds, and then with Halo 2, that was the genesis of modern competitve FPS multiplayer which became a cultural phenomenon. That's when it started becoming cool with high schoolers / early college and then Modern Warfare made it cool with the kids.It's not even a bad FPS but the format meant it always had less going for it compared to Half-Life, Quake, UT, Tribes and Duke.
>>723259735I really want to know the thought process of the retard who came up with these names. Xbox 720 and 1080 would’ve been a million times less confusing.
>>723259439I boughted a brand new xbox ses for 150 eurodollars from a reseller and then boughted gift cards from another third-party store to buy a bunch of old games solely for backwards compatibility without giving microjeetsoft a single cent.
>>723255897That's simply not true.>>723256045Lmao. So you confirmed you're 50?
BWAH BWAH BWAAAAAAAAAH BWAH BWAAAAH
>>723259741Infinite is Halo 6.https://www.forbes.com/sites/insertcoin/2018/08/16/microsoft-confirms-that-yes-halo-infinite-is-actually-just-halo-6/
>>723259946>I really want to know the thought processthere wasn't one, it's such an obvious and identifiable naming scheme and i'm baffled they didn't go with it360>720>1080>1440>2160 makes a hell of a lot more sense than xbox one>xbox one X>xbox series X/S
>>723234826>>723235082I love the natural breast droop, it's cute.
only real niggas have the original halo in original box and cd aka best one
>>723253109Well they didn't do that. Even by Halo 3 they threw that out. (The Forerunners cloned their brains and turned into robots meant for Big Gravemind Tentacle)
>>723230139>just awhile ago everyone was dooming about the remake because one of the director implied he was displeased with his time at the studio>sprint gets confirmed>this news alone made people in the comment section go "OH MY GOD WE'RE BACK! YES YES!" These are just contrarians right? >>723238857its single player only. Like 80% of the coatings are fucking shit I agree.
>>723259762Constantly got involved with Halo's development trying to take over the story, change the Master Chief's name to "The Commando", was forcing a video game into a multimedia franchise from the beginning (them not wanting video games to be video games is why Capcom gave Xbox the middle finger on Resident Evil 4), gave Bungie weak ass hardware that couldn't play the original Halo, because of the controller design, Bungie were forced to try and make this FPS work on this gimped ass console. Xbox Team became even worse with Halo after the success of Halo CE. There's a reason Bungie were ready to cut ties with them right after the first Halo game. Xbox Team are a legitimate cancer that no one likes working with. They make PlayStation look like saints in comparison.
>>723260473didn’t have a ‘puter that could run it
>>723260473I still got my custom edition CD in my drawer next to me, on top of my copy of 2 Vista.
>>723234826That's a real actress.
>>723259982I'm a Millennial, you faggot
>>723260505That shit was Frank and some of the folks that would go onto 343 making their own sub-story in the terminals independent of the rest of the team. Go figure, they'd hijack the series with the Forerunner lore altogether.
>>723260579>>723260580forgot i bought 3 copies so me and my bros from way back can play sniper all day on blood gulchgonna reinstall and check it out
>>723230139Yay I can now use the "bitter game vet" card now
>>723260473>original pc portI had that, but also I had a very fun time in high school for a couple years because someone managed to sneak a multiplayer-only demo onto the PC servers. Motherfucking LAN matches in the school library, bro, or really even across the whole school if your class had a computer and some free time. Everyone knew I was an absolute Magnum monster back then.Then they got too loud and retarded with the computers and the staff found out at large about it, axed that whole thing on us.
>>723260473What's funny I just realized is that marines never drive the hogs in CE even though they were supposed to because they couldn't debug the AI in time.
>>723259735I felt like there were still a couple of good exclusives from the XBone and the third party offerings weren't too bad at the time, but since I've gotten a SeXBox I only brought Elden Ring and a bunch of older backwards compatible games (which the website for is broken lmao). Only recently with the Gamepass stuff have I been picking up more games at local shops for reasonable prices, I got Like A Dragon for $12 a couple days ago. At this point I'm waiting for GTAVI to come out and then I'll be done with Xbox since they're already done with themselves.
>>723260535>halo>single player onlygenuinely what the fuck is microsoft doing?
>>723260854the original halo demo on pc allowed only blood gulch to be hosted in mp aka the best map. i played the fucking SHIT outta that map before i ponied up the money to get the full thing. brings back some memories.i will never buy a re-release.
>>723260929>genuinely what the fuck is microsoft doing?Basically sounds like they're performing what Call of Duty has done but to a larger degree. Campaigns get sold separately as big experiences partly or entirely outsourced, and a central multiplayer experience exists independently.
Also fun factoid, unused voice tags from the MCC mod kit release prove grunts were planned to be able to drive and crew warthogs in Halo 2 iirc.
>>723260906They can barely drive ghosts, yeah. In the fucking intro cutscene you can hear the ones that drive the hog in front of Johnson crash right before the scene changes to chief being unfrozen.Marine AI in CE is pretty bad in general. They'll constantly shoot one another in the back, stand way to close to the player if you're driving something, and they can barely fight the flood. Yet somehow they're leagues better than modern enemy or friendly AI in games today, who will just stand in place shooting or walk straight at you.
>>723260956>rockets only on hang em high
>>723230519XBLA retards who enabled all those shitty practices back then which led us to modern gaming and they're the ones who cry the loudest currently too.They had the ability to let go. But they still consooom the shit out of anything Halo that MS shits in their mouthIt's a very good trilogy, reach is good too but not as good. It was also influential but for the wrong reasons, like for a console shooter some things were perfectly fine and made sense but those changes in design affected PC FPS games in a bad way. FPS genre already suffers too much from the games in an era feeling very samey.Back when Doom was king, you had few games that really felt like something different than just another coat of paint (eg. Exhumed was more like a Metroidvania)>>723253449Zoomers got to play it and they shit on it just like the boomers.
>former xbox research head>halo studios headlet her cook, so excited to play this on gamepass with my series S, PC, or cloud, I love that I can play anywhere, everything is an xbox if you think about it, hype!
>>723260567>change the Master Chief's name to "The Commando"wanted to change a cool and iconic name to something generic, very retarded and shows no foresight on the team at all nor knowledge of marketing. and it also shows how little they really knew about making a successful franchise if they couldn't recognize something as simple as this. :/>gave Bungie weak ass hardware that couldn't play the original Halo, because of the controller design, Bungie were forced to try and make this FPS work on this gimped ass console. Xbox Team became even worse with Halo after the success of Halo CE.so from what you've said, and the little bits of halo CE's development I've read over the years: initially Halo would've been a kickass PC shooter in the same vein of stuff like quake but more tactical?
>>723261284
Actually that would have been awesome if grunts could just randomly hijack empty warthogs. Did they really never do that in the new ones?
>>723260923I was already feeling pretty disenfranchised with console gaming that gen as someone who had always been an idort. I liked KI and Sunset Overdrive was kind of cool, but the rest of the first party offerings did nothing for me and it all it did was end up collecting dust.
>>723260929That's a good thing dipshit, it means they can finally focus on making it a good video games. Properly use the lore for GAMEPLAY, instead of garbage exposition dump. Halo is finally out of the era of being a shitty Call of Duty in space that it created. Multiplayer project will either do okay or die. I kind of hope it and Marathon fails so Microsoft can just make singleplayer-only games going forward.
>>723261303Yeah, would have had massive open world-like environments with multiple biomes, and alien wildlife. It was also hinted at being a Marathon sequel back when Bungie loved making singleplayer games. Microsoft just kills everything cool, fun, and creative.
>>723261284it looks like she just took a bunch of assorted berries and squashed them on her head...
>>723261284This faggot cunt no longer works there.
>>723261284Didn't she leave with a lot of other people?
>>723231289>>723255361My own personal take on an ODST 2>Game takes place on High Charity, open world>you play as an ODST who was taken prisoner>you break free, your job is to gather as many stray Marines as possible and GTFO>basically Halo meets Dead Rising>the open world changes as time progresses (first it's relatively calm, then the great schism kicks off, then the flood invade, then the key ship leaves etc)>different endings depending on how many marines you save
>>723261303Yeah, I highly recommend watching https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IhzeV57bNtQIt and the halo 2 one (I'm still upset they never did any for other halo games) have the dudes talking about a lot of shit they wanted to do but couldn't due to being on the xbox.
>>723261436That you even still entertain the possibility of it being good is just baffling to me. Like I don’t understand how you can keep falling for the same PR bullshit from this sinking ship of a company over and over.
>>723261772He's the retarded CEbab
>>723230273>Another one?there has been 0there has been 1(ONE) remaster>um actually halo infinite is clearly a halo ce remakeretard
>>723261671Yeah, all the lefties are leaving Halo Studios because based man Pierre is culling them for wanting Halo 4 and 5 back.
>>723261772Halo no longer has the Xbox to hold it back, meaning it can now be made for PC even more than ever before and would take into account Sony's better and more modern DualSense controller. Halo was built to be a singleplayer series with the multiplayer being secondary. It trying to push its shitty multiplayer like it's Call of Duty or Battlefield is just one of the reasons why it went to shit.
>>723246507You're not accounting for the fact that microsoft is legit retarded and hates money.please ignore the fact that this started happening as soon as a jeet took over the company
>>723261584>Yeah, would have had massive open world-like environments with multiple biomes, and alien wildlife.so the game could've been a definitive shooter for the PC and one of the all-time greats, but instead it's a serviceable FPS for the console crowd that's only as beloved as it is because they had no other frame of reference.>>723261714i'll go watch them right now but man... my mood's been shot hearing this. because when CE isn't retarded and you're playing the actually well-developed parts, it's a very fun game and i can see the passion that went into it.
>>723262150dumbest thing I've read all week, and I just got back from philidelphia.
>>723262154I like him, he's finally containing Microsoft's cancer to just AI and getting them out of gaming. He sees gaming as software that should be shoved in other stores, less problems for them to deal with.
>>723262204>definitive shooter for the PCNo such thing
>>723262204>so the game could've been a definitive shooter for the PC and one of the all-time greats, but instead it's a serviceable FPS for the console crowd that's only as beloved as it is because they had no other frame of reference.Yes
>>723262241He also thinks Halo infinite is good because it has open world and plays like farcry
>>723230519Half life is shit compared to halo are you kidding me You had to be there zoomer
>>723262346i meant to say essential, got my words mixed up; but you get what i mean. it could've been in the same conversation as the classics.
>>723261130>>rockets only on hang em high
>>723262241Get over it, you normal faggots, can't even do what you preach, you're closet homos that love playing wokeshit instead of letting that shit rot and die because you have to keep playing slop from the 7th generation that you know is going to be woke as shit but still play it anyway. You don't even get or play non-woke games or want to play them. To have more of your worthless shit taken from you and given back us gamers is what needs to be done. You're the rot keeping the game industry from getting better. You want your multiplayer Halo game, go wait for the multiplayer-only Halo game no one but retards on Microsoft's paycheck will play.
>>723262204There's mods like Ruby's Rebalanced that really add to the game in ways that I think Bungee would have loved to do, like marines being able to drive warthogs properly, ODSTs in levels, alien wildlife running around, secret teleporters in levels for bonus goodies (And a special one on The Flood that I really like), and a bunch of expanded scripts, like marines in Assault on the Control Room actually following you to the final area and setting up a base there. I'm really looking forward to his Halo 2 version.
>>723262450Classic Farcry was great, fuck you
>>723262710no
>>723262492How?
>>723262769yes, get taste
>>723262150>Xbox going third party is good for HaloNot really. it'd be more accurate to say that Xbox no longer has any use for Halo. They kept it around despite the constant failures because it was their iconic exclusive IP. 343i is officially in sink or swim territory now, if they don't deliver then the studio & IP are dead. And Microsoft won't be satisfied by a single player game with no microtransactions.
>>723262643>I'm really looking forward to his Halo 2 version.Seeing his progress on the H2 one spooks me because of how much he's implemented that's new, 2 wasn't exactly a balanced or polished campaign for many obvious reasons but now you've got Elites with the CE beta arm shields, Engineers that clusterbomb explode, ODST weapons, Spec-Ops grunts in the Arby missions getting upgraded to seriously mean dudes, a CE style health system, and the list goes on. As much as I wanna try it, some part of me wonders if it's a bit too much.
>>723262891I don't want to eat shit
>>723262643do i need to have the original PC copy or can i make do with the MCC version of CE? because from your pitch this sounds really fucking cool and would breathe new life into the game for me
>>723262925>Not really. it'd be more accurate to say that Xbox no longer has any use for HaloMicrosoft multiple uses for Halo since it still makes money, they have no use for Xbox since that piece of shit hasn't made a dime since it was released in 2001, just a big fat money sink. I'm more surprised Microsoft kept that piece of shit going this long. I would have killed it after the OG Xbox.>And Microsoft won't be satisfied by a single player game with no microtransactionsThey're already satisfied with what Bethesda shits out
>>723263029You're already eating it playing Halo
>>723258367>Don't change anything! Don't explore anything! Everything has to be like the last haloYou must be a big Halo 4 fan.
>>723263191Generally the rule of thumb is that you only really need the original PC version, pirated or otherwise, for shit like SPV3, which is kind of a clusterfuck nightmare. You can get the Rebalanced mods on MCC so far, Workshop even.https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2915693904&searchtext=
>>723263271But I don't play halo
>>723263191It's on the workshop, champ.There's only two(?) mods I can think of off the top of my head that need a classic copy to play, one being the old-ass reach mod, and the other being SPV3, which is a pretty cool mod but it gets a little silly at some points, especially with the lore-dump log books you can find laying around. Though because it's a standalone mod, they could fit a ton of new code into it that you just can't do with a normal workshop mod, like infection forms actually turning people they kill into combat forms, an entire arbiter level with a different hud, armor abilities, things that you do in previous levels affecting later levels, and custom checkpoints.
>>723263367>>723263593Actually I just looked it up, having MCC works fine for SPV3. Neat.
>>723263367i always forget the MCC has workshop support lol, i'll go download the mod and try it laterthanks m8
>>723263343why are you being so dishonest and bad faith? don't you feel bad about treating human beings this way? where's your conscience?
>>723263401You sure are defending it
>>723230139babbyshit shooter for people that suck at shooters. Counterstrike was always better and for people that aren't shit at shooters.
>>723264062
>>723263864Nah
>>723264062thanks for the input Ivan
>>723263727>The shitposter cries out in pain as he shitposts
>Bots keep screaming that halo is shit and for babies or whatever, arguing with one another>Actual halo fans in the thread talking about how much fun the old games were, mods to try out, what games they want to see in the future
>>723264062All the 50 year olds crawl out of the woodwork when halo is mentioned.Your baby games meme quit being relevant 18 years ago you retard.
>>723264595
>>723264595there are more graceful ways to cope anon
>>723230390here starts the giga pedantic melty of the day, imagine trying to assert you won the argument cause some retard refuses to care about the difference between releasing a product called Halo Combat Evolved three times.
>>723264395>counterstrike is russians onlyCSGO has had more players then halo since 360 died and stopped being relevant. Halo was probably a thing for 3 years at best. Sad.>>723265028>only gen x ers point out halo being shitman grow up. Halo was just a dumb co op shooter at best mogged by borderlands. The campaigns are mostly trash that only stood out against the rest of post 5th gen brown bloom poop color shooters.
>can't find a physical copy of MCC anywhereI don't wanna go to the city but the Steam version can tide me over for only so long.
>>723265028It will be relevant for as long as it remains true that Halo ruined the FPS genre forever.Another twenty years from now it will still be remembered as casualized babbified consolecucked dogshit. That is your legacy, live with it.
>>723232472half life only gets its dick sucked because it did stuff first, but they didn't make stuff better nor standardize anything other than telling a story in FPS games. Halo standardized online multiplayer and FPS controls for something as shitty as a console controller.
>>723265224And there are better places for miserable faggots like you. Try /pol/.
>>723230519>>723235067I appreciate Halo haters proving themselves to be massively autistic spergs in every single thread.
>>723266310I appreciate Halozooms being massive crybabies every time you remind them their favorite game is dogshit.
>>723266410>Immediate melty 7 hours laterlol
>>723265652bro nobody cares about that boring ass twitch shootergo back to gambling for knife skin NFTs since that’s all anyone plays that shit for
>>723230519They never played Perfect Dark before
>>723230139>Halo, the one singular game that led to the FPS genre becoming console friendly and casualized, is getting a casualized remake.The sheer god damn irony. Sadly modern /v/ is too underage to appreciate the humor of the situation. Maybe because they are now the grown up kids old /v/ used to make fun of back in the day.
>>723266921No one should
>>723267002based, see>>723266942
>>723266942You're too old to still be trying to shitpost.
>>723267223What makes you think that post is not my sincere belief?
>>723265754The day I start to care about the opinions of some 8-bit obsessed geriatric faggot is the day I'll kill myself.Your too old to be on 4chan crying about a 25 year old video game you stupid fat pussy.
>>723266942>moooooooooooom I posted it again!!!!!!>no I don’t have a job yet I’m still looking>but mom I’m only 40, 40 is young!
Do I want Halo Wars to be a shooter hybrid? I think I do. Bungie's original Halo concept was a hybrid wasn't it? Go ahead and make one, Microshart.
>>723266609>boring ass twitch shootercounterstrike requires more skill then any halo. Halo is boring as shit and middle of road. You could name countless better shooters that either require more skill or had better co op. Halo was just some overrated meme for xbox.
>>723252473>can't Spartan IIs sprint indefinitely?IIRC in the Fall of Reach novel during Chief's "obstacle course" run with Cortana he ran full tilt for like 15km without tiring. Can't remember if that was before or after he slapped a longsword's air to ground missile away.
>>723267746The Arbiter's special ability where you take direct control of him to go ape shit with his dual swords was pretty rad. A Spartan Assault-style top down shooter mode for other units would probably be fun.Also I don't think the original mac game was a hybrid, no, it was just an RTS, then a third person shooter when microsoft bought them out, then of course just an FPS.
>>723267294That means you are probably pushing 50. You're still sitting on a meme from fucking 2008. You keep that shit around to try and dunk on a game whose primary audience have families and mortgages now.That is pathetic.You're some kind of fat autistic loser still whining about something people quit giving a shit about damn nearly two decades ago.The idea of a 45 year old man still tip tap typing away on 4chins /v/ of all places to mock a 25 year old game is embarrassing.
>>723265765Half-Life was actually good, fun to play, and rememberable besides the friends you made along the way.
>>723266310Even normalfags are seeing you Halofags as autistic, if you consider these guys autistic, it means they're normal compared to you.
>>723268035That’s a lot of seethe and projection.Zoomies really can’t handle any criticism of their favorite game.
>>723268000>A Spartan Assault-style top down shooter mode for other units would probably be fun. I want to control Grunts make them commit suicide!
>>723268035Not him, I find this funny that you keep bringing up age when I've noticed a lot of Xbots are Gen X faggots.
>>723266609The original Counter-Strike isn't a twitch shooter you fucking idiot
>>723231289Pandemic's Star Wars Battlefront II's Galactic Conquest mixed with Strike Vector's ship to ship combat. Helldivers 2 is the closest to this as far as infantry combat is concerned. Only thing it's missing is Ship to Ship combat. Both battleships and fighter/bomber dogfighting. Maybe toss in a little bit of Nuclear Dawn with a team commander playing the game like an RTS instead of a shooter / dogfighter / naval combat.
>>723268318*CS:GOIt's a tactical FPS, twitch shooters are shit like the new CODs
>>723268213That doesn’t contradict the point that anyone still genuinely seething about Halo “killing” arena shooters must be at or approaching that age range.I think anyone who is that old still letting this 6/10 console shooter live in their head rent free is pretty pathetic.
>>723268213>gen xbox
>>723268415I couldn't give a shit about that, those were already dying, Halo is just Xbox killing the industry because they don't want to compete, they want to neuter and control. Rivalry between Nintendo fans, Sega fans, PlayStation fans, and PC players is just bants, hatred that all these fans have for Xbox is real because they wanted to ruin gaming. >>723268507kek
>>723231801>by dumbing them down for console tardsI'll never understand this argument. I grew up playing both console and PC shooters. My memories of playing PC shooters in the 90s vs console were>spending an inordinate amount of time fine tuning controls because lol no standardized control scheme>faster look/turn speed>no/optional aim assist and mouse being more accurateWolfenstein/DOOM made shooters a viable genre. Goldeneye/Turok made them viable on consoles. Halo/CoD/Medal of Honor made them popular.
