Im going to buy and play Halo Remake. fuck all the nitpicking autists complaining, this looks great and I'm going to have a fun time playing it.
>>
UE5 slop
>>
>>724281904
It's not a fun game; it has some vibes for hard sci-fi but it's just a tech demo from the early 00s
>>
>>724281904
Sounds good anon. You do you and enjoy it. Personally I'm in the middle of trying to find the original Halo PC release so I can make it run with pcgamewiki and enjoy the classic look. I haven't played it since it came out.

I don't mind remakes at all, people hate me for it but I've never had issues with any remakes outside of a select few like RE3. Otherwise, I've enjoyed pretty much ever remake I've ever played. Dead Space for example was a great one, as was RE4 despite the yellow paint controversy. Metroid Prime is another one from recent years.

I just don't mind them, the original still exists, a remake / remaster never pisses me off because I don't see the point of getting mad when you can still play the original game if you want to relive that experience.

I will probably get the Halo remake on playstation just because it will be crazy to be playing a Halo game on playstation just like with Gears of War, which I'm waiting to be on sale before I buy that because I'm not paying $40 for a game I already own on xbox and pc.

God damn is it just the water? Maybe I will play the updated rereleases instead. I figured that OG PC release must have fan patches or something that fix it up by this point in time. Perhaps not.

>>
>>724281904
It's beautiful. It looks like the cutscenes from Halo 2 Remaster. But I worry about some of the changes they've teased and I think it is likely to run like shit on anything but the strongest PCs.

I guess that's why it's a campaign-only remake though. The Warthog being a 4-seater and the energy swords being equippable will fuck with a lot of the levels.
>>
>>724283043
Just get an old CRT computer monitor then. Or use a CRT filter on an OLED display with BFI.

If I had the oppertunity to design my own halo game I'd add in a kick button, like how they added in the grappling hook, that would be the kick button. You could still punch guys and smack them with your gun, but you could also kick them too.

Why do you have to announce to /v/ what you're going to do with your life? Are you stupid?
Go ahead, pay 70 dollars for a product that's existed for 24 years, I'm not going to stop you.
The classic version is literally free, but whatever.
>>
you'll realize half an hour in is that the era you were living in also made the game so special. the friends you played with or talked to the game with...IN REAL LIFE. the better life you enjoyed in between halo sessions.

you'll realize this polished replacement won't bring back the prime era of life and you'll be reminded of how souless and empty everything they feed you is now.

enjoy.

I probably will to on a sale. Unless they reveal something spectacular it's not a high priority. All remake shitposting aside I hope this gives the team enough experience to make a new game.

Fuck infinite and anything they were planning moving forward though just set a new game following a different spartan during the covenant war.

Who cares what you do or think faggot ? Play the game or don't, it's unnecessary to remake halo ce, and the remake looks like it's shit.
>>
>>724282592
>you can still play the original
Not really, most cases there is only the newer version available. And on top of that things get even worst with ports with missing features and bugs, like halo ce. All the newer versions are based on a mediocre pc port. Like what they did with MCC, played h3 campaign coop not long ago and it was an absolute joke filled with bugs and missing features. I can only imagine how mediocre halo 3 must feel for someone experiencing it for the first time on pc. Simply put, it's not the same game. That's the problem with remakes/remaster/bad ports

its pretty much studied at this point, you cant claim porjection when you see so many mentally deficient halo fans online constantly wax about how they miss Xbox live sessions when they were 9. youre essentially trying to gaslight nintendo fans into thinking playing the DS wasnt magical as a child.

the MC Collection also release some years ago so it cant be pure unfiltered nostalgia- the fans have played it again semi-recently
>>
>>724281904
>fuck all the nitpicking autists complaining

its critical for anyone that engages with Halo to learn this immediately.
Halo has a mix of unpleasable players with terrible taste derived from nostalgia.

have fun

>>724284240
MCC came out over 10 years ago anon, its been on PC for over 6 years.

Do we know much have they changed the gameplay? Tweaks to the AI, movement, gunplay and everything? I always found the first game's campaign kind of boring, especially the flood parts.

>>724284020
No the old remake sucked, this remake looks closer to Halo than the 2011 anniversary version does. I feel like they have a lot of time to fix the nitpicks shown so far

3 new prequel levels, flood elevator map revamped and redesigned to not be so reptitive
>>
>>724284331
apparently the flood are getting a pretty big overhaul
>>
>>724284530
They should drop the prequel levels idea and direct all the effort toward fixing the back half of the game. The Library might be the worst level but Two Betrayals and Keyes suck ass too.
>>
>>724284331
Flood Elite's will now have shields and they've redesigned the library to include a covenant invasion
>>
>>724284020
It was strictly a visual remaster while I guess this is a full remake. All the bones of the game were still there, they just had new textures and lighting, and the character models still looked dated.
>>
>>724284617
>The Library might be the worst level but Two Betrayals and Keyes suck ass too.
Since the confirmed they are redesigning The Library level i imagine they are redesigning most levels to so extent including two betrayals
>>
>>724284108
Lots of AI bugs/AI simplification compared with og.
Scarab movement area and legs angles are pretty broken.
Graphical issues like missing effects/shaders(like fogand light not affecting objects, missing detail textures, worst / simplified materials, missing vfx...).
Weird difficulty bugs, like some damage and health values completely broken.
Overall lack of details, for example when the plasma pistol shioots in og, it does so alternating from the 2 points, in MCC it shoots from a single point in the head of the player.
In multiplayer there are tons of shit like the op banshee movement with mkb, that allows for 180 degree turns while turbo. The tank has auto aim so it's useless against infantry/ moving objects since you cannot control the splash damage against surfaces or expected trajectory shoots.

Just some from the top of my head, but it's filled with this shit.

Honestly the remake looks fun and ultimately thats all that matters
>But da forerunner architecture isn't da saem or those rocks are incorrect
Nobody gives a shit and your splitting hairs to create that argument. Forerunner architecture in Halo 3 looks nothing like the shit in Halo 1. Shir changes.
The one thing I dislike about remakes is how lazily done it is. Why not just go all out and attempt to make Bungies original vision before the engines and console Limitations of the time. Add the shit from Fireteam Raven (which is set during Halo 1) like the Flood Juggernaut or expand the maps and add in shit from the sequels and spinoff like the Revanent from Reach or the plentiful assortment of vehicles from halo Wars like the Grizzly. Something to freshen up and give a truly new experience.

Its the same Halo 1 code with a pretty wrapper on top
>>
>>724288947
Actually wrong. This is Reach code. They're mangling Halo Reach into playing like Halo Infinite while creating Combat Evolved scenarios. THEN they put the UE5 on top, or integrated Blam tags/code into UE5 altogether since their roundtable stuff shows a brief snippet of a tag editor in UE5.
Why yes this is some unholy amalgamation, why do you ask?
>>
>>724289130
>Reach code
W-why would they use that one? Did they give a reason?
>>
>>724289214
No. It's a bit of leaker rumors that were on-point so far about what's been revealed, the AI and Marines/Elites acting like they do in Reach from the footage among other little quirks, and so forth that have that going about. My best guess is that this remake started work a couple years ago after Infinite was considered a lost cause and the rebrand / shift to UE5 was in effect, and since Reach was the closest thing to Combat Evolved and they JUST had that ported to PC only a couple years back as the "freshest" Blam code available, it was probably the most viable codebase on hand besides trying to mangle Infinite even more? I dunno, that's just guess work and theory.

Nope, Microsoft is now blocking anything singleplayer of Halo that doesn't star the Master Chief, the mandate is that the player must play only as the Master Chief from beginning to end now. I'm preparing for the eventual seething from Bungiefags when that Halo 2 campaign-only remake comes around, kek. Gonna be even more funny when 4-player co-op comes up in the Halo 3 remake, lmao.

Xbox consoles are widely available anywhere in the world unless you're in Asia and South America. Usually they are priced really low. As far as I know, even physical Xbox games aren't expensive since they are not as collectable as stuff like PS2 or Gamecube games or Gen 4 stuff.

It's because player collision, netcode, and physics are totally fucked in Infinite's engine and don't work even when turned on, which would screw over the coop mode>>724288947
for ce remake. Halo 4 also uses a modified Reach engine but is somehow 100x shittier and less stable than the Reach engine (weapons will literally vanish from the game 30 seconds after being dropped in comparison to Bungie engines where weapons will never disappear when dropped) so of course 343 has to revert back to Bungie source code since they're too incompetent to make a good engine.

It's the most stable code of blam!, 343 broke the blam! code with Halo 4, broke it further with Halo 5, and completely nuked it from orbit with SlipSpace, they finally gave up and started over, UE5 is there to keep them from having the same problems they had with blam!.

I assume we get Halo 2 remade aswell then? What other games does Xbox have to remake that they havnt already? Because its arguably a dead platform now and remakes are all theyre going to muster the strength for clearly

I wouldn't have that much of a problem with remakes if the industry was creatively healthy overall, if it was just one trashy trend among vibrant release libraries. the industry is not healthy at the AAA level and release libraries have floundered, pumping so much money and time into recycling content feels dismal with there being barely anything else to fill the void.

You need to install the Chimera plugin and the fan-patched maps, and config some stuff for Chimera through the dev console, that's really it. There are some small differences between the MCC release and the original PC port, not anything worth fretting over if you're a casual player. MCC is a little closer to Xbox for visuals, but you will have a smoother, more consistent visual and gameplay experience with Chimera's enhancements than MCC.

343? Anons I think you're confused, 343 Industries is gone, this game is made by the completely new Halo Studios! It's a totally original game development studio with no connection to the old 343i. Please don't think about how bad 5 was and how much they (meaning 343 of course, NOT the NEW Halo Studios) fucked up the MCC and had to rely on someone else to fix it, or how Infinites engine code was written by contracted outsourcers and it took them 4 fucking months to add a new BTB map. This has NO relation to the guys that did all that! Look, we even got 4 white guys to do the reveal trailer, are you falling for this yet?

It's a 0 creativity venture on the line of being borderline AI generated. There are no sparks of originality and any changes are usually for the bad.

Plus you get ONE chance at doing a remake before making it nearly unfeasible for another one to be made.

Demake 2 for example could've made A/B scenarios truly significantly different, with all new enemies that only appear in B scenario or storyline sequences that only happen in B, or have a few subtle choices from A go into B, but no, they didn't do shit and just gutted the system and did nothing with it. There's literally no point in playing B scenario in Demake 2.
