its kinda sad that all these companies just keep making remakes and nostalgia bait of shit from 20 years ago because in a world where all these giant companies can't create new media without a hundred diversity hire consultants to make sure the game is socially acceptable and not racist and all that shit everything that comes out is slop that no one will remember fondly in 20 years.

The voice impersonator for Johnson isn't too bad, the dialogue in the trailer was written pretty horribly though, the prequel scenario and dialogue all felt AI generated. Everything looks good for the most part but they really couldn't help themselves with that godawful armor on the covenant for the prequel missions. If they want to make a remixed Halo 1 that's fine, I've played the hell out of CE and all its workshop mods so if they want to make a Halo 1 game that feels like Halo 2 and 3, that's fine. Might be neat even so long as that sprint shit is as useless as it was in infinite

The only potentially interesting part of the remake is the prequel missions but even they're a retcon because Chief isn't supposed to have things like energy shields or met Johnson. Still not worth $50 and no multiplayer.

Nigga, most of the points were correct in the original post but the you are a dumbass nigger if you are complaining about armoued Hunters and fucking colour coded enemies.

Anon a point of contention (among many) for 4 and 5 (and 3 with brutes) is that enemies are more armor-coded than color-coded, which messes up identification during frantic moments. Infinite and Campaign Evolved are both coloring and armoring like in Reach.
>>
>>740546316
It's up there!
>>
>>740549870
Hunter armor looking shit, the color classification of blue/red/white/gold elites
But like reach didn't fully follow that either.
Okay the generals and enforcers still with goldfish and reddish while the zealot colors made them more like high ranking spec ops than the usual thing a zealot is
Elites just don't strike me as people who'd have "generals" I'll admit. Zealot made sense, craziest zealot given the command power in a theocratic military
Guess it sounded more military and reach was more military so bungie called the gold elites generals?
I just find it funny they have honor guard grunts now. This prophet is probably low ranking compared to the hierarchs.

I mean yeah, the hierarchs were just those three guys, any other Prophet would be lower ranked.

>>740551054
Halo 3 brute ranks had terrible color coding due to being slightly different purple/blue hues to the point most people just assume there are the typical brutes, then captains when there's apparently minors/majors/ultras of both the typical and captain brutes.
But it is so minor compared to if they're specialists or high ranking spec ops I never care to look for it.

Yeah and 3 brutes don't even have that many differences in ranks, like what do they need 6 normal brutes+bodyguards for? Just keep the ones with small helmet and flanged helmets, the chieftains, and the specialists.
>>
>>740546217
The idea Spartans didn't get energy shields until 5 seconds before Halo CE starts has been ignored by most Halo media of any consequence most importantly including Reach. That they even went with the autism that Captain King didn't get Mk V armor for any prior missions when everything else in that trailer ignores the same extended universe material is honestly just silly but you can't stop 343 from including wack ass Master Chief redesigns in things.
>>
>>740551394
The zealots fill the niche of general in earlier halo games but in reach they made the zealots fill the role a more specialist assassin force basically.

>apolitical
It isnt even about being political or not. I can expect a scifi military FPS to have some views on politics because it's military org focused.
The problem is how overly contemporary the thinking gets, it is tunnel visioned on the enforcement of grifter narratives that suck all the oxygen away. It is a type of enslavement of the mind because it controls what is allowed to be talked about via keeping the focus on the buzzword talk and sidelining everything else.
Halo Studios just doesn't give a fuck about military scifi as a subgenre, Bungie at least tried to retain elements of it even if it was the usual Aliens aping every scifi game at the time does and "theocracy bad" being a fairly simple message overall.

Modern Conservatism was just spawned from rebelling against the Liberal establishment, which was initially rebelling against the boomer Conservative establishment. The issue is the homogenization and commercialization of the modern internet. Ragebait and clickbait is profitable, so there's a perpetual "Culture War Economy" where there's always the "Woke" to fight against. The modern right has become the SJWs they campaigned against. Just look at the conversations and "sexier" redesigns of female characters to make them less "woke" that's just a coomer politicizing their porn addiction, while being the inverse of the SJWs turning characters trans and brown.

Remember the Kane and Lynch 2 journalism controversy? It was a problem sans politics, but it wasn't as "marketable" as Gamergate.

i agree. Only reviewers have any "real" consistent power because they inform the customer what to buy (see Alien: Isolation).
The closest person I can see to being legit is Jason Schrier, who withheld info about Blizzard to write a shitty book instead of bringing it to law enforcement which led to a woman killing herself from the harassment.

I've been playing the original Halo CE recently. there was so much love and care put into every level's visuals ensuring you can always clearly see the enemies. silhouettes and colors are perfect. this new remake just completely ignores that. it looks terrible.
>>
>>740538561
It's not just games, it's everything. That said, I'm fine with everyone using the Resident Evil method, going back to what works, pretend like the 2010s never happened, and essentially treat it like a do-over building off the base of the best parts of the series.

Maybe I'm being too "half-full", but stuff like Tomb Raider, Gears E-Day, and Halo Campaign Evolved almost feel like a mea culpa to me. Like the closest thing to an admission that they fucked up that we'll ever get.

Anyone else thinks it looks very off? Like everything is made out of plastic? Even Johnson here looks like Mr Potato Head but I'm not even joking. His skin straight up looks like the granulated texture my Mr Potato Head had when I was a kid. And everyone's movements look very robotic and stiff in cutscenes, not fluid at all. Johnsons facial expressions look passable but very amateurish. The quirky dialogue is also not really hitting the mark either. Yeah Bungie dialogue was like 40% quips and one-liners too but you have to admit these ones feel kinda eeehhhhh, you know what I mean? Even Infinite's were better than these and those were already a downgrade.

I don't like complaining and specially not about Halo but I have to be honest, man. I'm really not feeling it. And every single model for everything being recycled assets + the ugly skins for the Premium edition don't help either. It at least looks like it could be pretty fun ngl but other than that I'm not really hyped or hopeful about this at all.

I'm very thankful Gears of War is the exact opposite case. I'm so fucking glad they seem to be doing everything right. I'm very very happy for them and excited for E-Day too.

Halo's trash cohesion is because they keep outsourcing to 10 different companies so it is this disjointed fucking mess of ideas guys driven design that smothers itself under the weight of incoherent design across every branch from narrative to core gameplay. It is a common issue with AAA game design, Halo Studios / 343i is just also incompetent atop of that so these problems are even worse than they'd normally be (think a Ubisoft game).

Reach was literally starting at most a couple weeks before Halo 1 and the ending directly heads into it.
As much as I hate them bastardizing something I used to love, it absolutely does fit in.
>>
>>740564207
Reach was controversial on release both in campaign and multiplayer. The title update didn't save it, and it's still very polarized to this day. Nobody likes 4. 5 has a tryhard multiplayer that its small playerbase enjoys and defends, but it was a commercial failure and its campaign was literal dogshit. Infinite was promising but bland with nothing on release, lack of updates (UI problems lmao) and the shitty challenge grinds destroyed it and now it is forgotten.

The books do some retconning.
In terms of game canon they meet in the middle of the first Halo incident.
In the pre 343 books (fall of reach, first contact etc), Chief and Johnson first meet during the Fall of Reach. IIRC Chief pulls him and Jenkins off an orbital platform.
In the 343 era books Chief and Johnson meet early into the Covenant war during Operation Silent Storm.

So...take your pick. I personally am a pre 343 books sort of guy and they just sort of clicked even if they only knew each other for...like a year.

The funny thing is they had artists that were doing faithful Halo 1 style art around for Infinite but they all got laid off and replaced for this remake because MS won't keep anyone but management around for more than like 3 years. You can see even in Shitfinite's desert of GAAS content the total inconsistency in art design where there's multiple conflicting interpretations of the same armor variant. I think there's two different "classic" pistol skins, and so on.

Bungie didn't work on Halo PC. They outsourced it to Gearbox. lacks certain shaders, ie jackal shields, cov shields, dropship plasma, AR shaders

Bungie didn't work on Halo 2 Vista. They outsourced it

343 didn't work on CEA. They outsourced it.

343 outsourced CEA and H2A to Saber Interactive for FREE using the inferior PC ports as the base and Sean Cooper spent 5 years fixing the broken ports

343 outsourced terminals in Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary to Sequence

343 outsourced Reach DLC maps (Defiant Map Pack/Anniversary Map Pack) and Halo 4 DLC maps to Max Hoberman and Certain Affinity (multiplayer, online, and UX design lead for Halo 2 and Halo 3)

Halo 4 campaign just feels half-baked. It has sections that feel empty, lacking content. Removed point scoring. As a result, the timer was also removed(used for speed runs). You can't view the campaign terminals ingame; you must go to waypoint. Forge Island gives us ten times less budget than Forge World. Removed Race, Territories, Stockpile, Headhunter, and Juggernaut. “Infinity” gametypes include instant respawn, perk packages and customized loadouts (COD). "Legendary" gametypes fixed this.

Halo 4 and part of Halo 5 are the only game 343i actually put together themselves with their in house studio, MCC and especially infinite has been nothing but wrangling contractors and contract studios. Infinite has something like 5 confirmed studios that worked on it. That is why their dev cycle takes so long and fucks shit up constantly(besides the technical debt). 343 is just an umbrella studio that directors other contract studios into making broken messes of games. Its why everything except Halo 4 is a broken retarded mess because Halo 4 was the only 343i title actually done in house and not through 20 corporate suit games of telephone and Zoom meetings

MCC was outsourced

343 Industries and Halo Studios are literally Microsoft which is the part I keep reminding myself because of how scummy it shows they are as a company. Why pay game studios decent salaries or grant seniority to any of your best developers when you can just be cheap and keep outsourcing until it's done and ship the slop out as cheaply as possible. Why NOT launch your own replacement developer for Bungie that is literally just part of your own company already.

>>740568931
She looks like Phoebe Cates there.

>>740569715
Halo 4 also used Certain Affinity but my recollection is specifically the multiplayer and forge while the main campaign was in house other than outsourced cinematics. CA also did the last Halo 2 map pack which was good, incidentally. But you can see how all the 343 games are basically 3 games duct taped together instead of a cohesive product like Bungie which is why some features never fucking work on release.

That's a problem in its own way. You're free to think it's fine, even a good deal. I agree it's great it looks more like Halo than many 343 games.
There's zero reason to speak up about people saying it could be better. One should never turn down the possibility of greater quality and integrity.

Like between the two games 2 has sharper and more texture heavy aspects due to being on the OG Xbox and having the scrapped lighting, and in contrast Halo 3 is much rounder and smoother because its not dealing with the aforementioned issues and instead gets to use a greater amount of polygons to depict detail,
And yet both keep such a strong consistency in core design that it allows the brain to pick and choose ones preferred aspects and smooth out the rest in memory.

good design paired with a loss in fidelic gains.
the jump from halo 1 to halo 2 saw a bigger graphical leap than from 2 to 3
the hardware gains were slowing down and halo 2 had already crossed the point to where you could get some pretty good details.
Makes it quite easy to get the facial details to be the same.

also if you look there is a lot of crossover between the OG johnsons cheekbones, eyebrows, and mustache all the way to 3
1's more limited lighting and consistent dark tones for johnson make it hard to see the similarity with the shots I copied that have his skin lit up.

so there is some consistency even from CE
>>
>>740574095
It gets hate because they didn't understand atmosphere. When you look at CE, it's very washed and sort of gray with some purples mixed in. CEA was vibrant and bright with a more blue tint. The most egregious examples of this fuckery were in 343 Guilty Spark and The Library. It's pretty clear from looking at the video in OP and some of these screenshots, that 343 has learned absolutely FUCKING NOTHING... AGAIN!

>>740537761
Lads, im going to admit something insane...i NEVER played a single Halo game, not even for a minute.
Did i miss on anything at all?
>>
>>740574750
True, really the only major discrepancies between CE and the rest of the trilogy is some of the equipment, the Spartan Armor being the biggest example (if justified by going from the MK5 to MK6), and the coloration and minor details on the Covenant races (again the scrapped Halo 2 lighting domino effect) while keeping the same core racial design.
Old Bungie knew really knew what they were doing.
>>
>>740574750
>>740574986
Halo CE was one of the earliest games to incorporate bump/normal mapping

Halo CE had bullet casings looked like real metal shells, didn't disappear quickly but remained on the ground for a long time (nothing cooler to see tons of bullet shells scattered everywhere after a fire fight), and watching them realistically roll down hills.

Specular on bsp is all kinds of broken in Halo 2, different ways depending on version of the game. Bungie disabled it on many surfaces because of this. In MCC it has a broken directional computation, in Vista it just doesn't work at all

Halo 2's maps were so big the original Xbox couldn't handle it. Containment is the biggest map in Halo 2.

Halo 3 ran at 1152x640, it wasn't even 720p

>“[Y]ou could argue we gave you 1280 pixels of vertical resolution, since Halo 3 uses not one, but two frame buffers, both of which render at 1152×640 pixels,”a Bungie representativewrote. “The reason we chose this slightly unorthodox resolution and this very complex use of two buffers is simple enough to see: lighting. We wanted to preserve as much dynamic range as possible, so we use one for the high dynamic range and one for the low dynamic range values. Both are combined to create the finished on screen image.”

ODST didn't have any rain because the engine didn't support it

Reach's motion blur technique, like in Tekken 6, works on an individual object basis

>Reach's lighting system means that there can be upward of thirty or more light sources on screen at once, given off via weapons fire, explosions, and environmental lighting, such as the glow given off from lights inside buildings. All of these light sources are real-time, and interact with their surroundings. So a gunshot, or rounds from a Needler will light up surrounding areas, and change the shadows created by moving objects. Each individual projectile from the Needler also has its own light source

Xbox had a high end PC-level GPU coupled with a low-tier Pentium III 733 CPU with a crippled cache. The system has Direct X 8.1, shader model 1.1, vertex shader 1.1 and two Vertex Shader units, while the Geforce 3's only had one. The Xbox GPU was quite powerful.

You can't name anything else on the PC that used bump mapping and similar lighting effects (such as the flashlight) before Halo in 2001. I doubt you'll find one.

visual perception of Halo 2 has been completely wrong. The art style ended up being way different, and they didn't have time to change the textures to fit the new, flatter lighting system. They just left them as is, so it's like the game is just waiting for someone to put the old lighting system back. It's really fascinating and frustrating lol.

The bump maps are still there in the original version, but there's less opportunities to see them, so they just end up looking like flat textures. there's no raytracing or 4K textures, and the shadows themselves are blurry and not accurate. But if you compare the original version to this one, you can at least have a glimpse into what Bungie might have been trying to accomplish with the original Halo 2.

In one aspect you missed Cool Atmospheric Campaigns with mythic religious themes, fun mechanics like in mission vehicles, fun enemies (mostly), great sountracks and some really strong lines of dialogue here and there.
And the other aspect you missed is a slower paced multiplayer, halfway between an old Quake style experience and something like Battlefield and in Halo 3 and Reach the introduction of Forge allowing scrubs to use an in-game map editor to make custom maps and game modes.
However if you go back and play them now, while they are really solid they also have been left behind in a way where as seen in this thread some modern gameplay aspects and conveniences are fundamentally opposed to the core systems and so it can feel dated if you not down for a slower paced arena shooter.
But if you listen to this song and can "feel" it I would say to give them a try https://youtu.be/Qz7EhV4t4Es

Yeah I saw some stuff of what halo 2 could have looked like.
Its a shame but its how things went.

speaking of Xbox, anyone know anything about ripping out textures from some OG xbox games?
I got a side project going for a game that has xbox and ps2 ports, but it only runs stable (mostly) on ps2.
wanted to get a look at the superior versions (xbox) textures to compare.

I got the iso pulled apart with extract-xiso-gui into the map files (which are .mxb) and a series of files called Xbox.r01, Xbox.r02, etc.

They're using Campaign Evolved as yet another reboot to the series.

The first reboot was Halo 4. The second was Halo Infinite. The third reboot is Campaign Evolved.

Because Halo shaped FPS and online console gaming for the 7-ish years it was on top. It basically carried the entirety of Xbox on its back in those years. People want to see how it continues on.

I've played the absolute balls out of CE and all its workshop mods so I'm fine if they want to make a slopified version as long as it doesn't replace the original on future consoles. Adding things like the Battle Rifle is kind of a weird choice because it IS the CE pistol of the later games, it's meant to give that same playstyle while the H2 magnum is meant to be used for duel wielding. If they want to make CE more like 2 and 3 then they should just go all the way with it by adding dual wielding

No Anon. Womanhood and femininity exist beyond the biological realities of the female sex. Through years of social and psychological evolution, we have collectively developed the concept of Anima, or what we consider the female image. We can look at cute dresses, long hair and makeup and identify that as feminine. It's an intrinsic part of our psychological make-up and we can recognize it on subconscious scale. You don't recognize a woman simply for having a vagina. You recognize her by what she wears, or how she walks, or the tone in the way she speaks. In other words, yes, a boy can become a woman by embracing his inner anima. This is psychology 101. The fact it needs to be explained to you is baffling. Are these the retards on the board now? How utterly disappointing.

2 was hated by people who liked CE because it dumbed down the game to appeal to retards.

3 was hated by the retards who didn't like that 3 stripped out all the handicaps and hand holding from 2 in an effort to bring it closer to CE

Reach was just a bad game that killed the franchise. The only people who shill for it are zoomies who started with it. These zoomies also make up the core 343 fanbase which is why every 343 game has been a mechanical sequel to Reach instead of Halo 3.

100% accurate. I felt exactly the same. CE was great, 2 was rushed and made for brainrot casuals, 3 tried to rebalance and fixed a lot of complaints with 2, and Reach tried to be like COD. We don't speak of what came after Reach (even more CODslop).

Another reason why graphics peaked in the mid 2010s. The post processing wasn't so severe and dialed up to 11. They realized only a hint of motion blur was acceptable. Today it's used as a crutch to cover ugly UE5 assets.
