>>482540804was Jerome ever confirmed Black?
>>482541008His name is Jerome and his VA is black.Do the math.
>>482540804Why did you remove MCC from the OP?
The Endless has arrived
>>482541470I didn't remove anything
>>482540804
>>482540804I love how they literally ditched Palmer because she wasn't woke enough.Think about that.
WHERE'S CEMAKE!?!?!WHERE IS IT?!I CAN'T WAIT 2+ YEARS!
>>4825423692028PS6 Pro Launch
have a nice night halobros
>>482540804ok, now this is based
>>482540804You forgot best sniper and also Locke
>>482543337ODST hasn't aged well damn
>>482544990>aged well That is implying it looked good at any point. It didn't.
Metroid won.Samus won.Halo lost.Chief lost(to a monkey).
>>482543337>You forgot LockeIt's ok I got it.
>>482551295>Chief lost(to a monkey)More than just a Monkey.Chief has an overall negative W/L rate since 343 took over.
>>482552484erm you can't have a negative W/L ratio. that doesn't make sense.
>>482556452just admit you can't do the arithmetic, simple troll
Chief is cook'd!
2/4 for Infinite co-op
>>482562379Did I... miss something?I could have sworn they canceled Infinite co-op
>>482563349common Mandela effect
>>482563349no split screen chicken coop
how many more years do you think we have to wait for the next halo announcement?how many more years after the announcement do you think we have to wait for the game to release?
>>482567379Announcement probably next year. Release probably late 2026 - early 2027.
>>482567379CEmake will get a 2026 release at absolute earliest
CEmake releases 2025 with a teaser for The Endless, releasing in 2027
Infinite storyline is going nowhere.At most Atriox can get resolution in Halo Wars 3
>>482568809>thinking they're continuing the story Lol. If the CE remake (if it even exists) is successful it will be a reboot in all but name. If it flops, Halo just ceases.
Just finished the no plasma pistol challenge on halo ce but I think halo 2 might be legit impossible without it, like worse than thundermythic bad
>>482570023congratshow tough was Two Betrayals?
>>482567379>waitdo yall not have mcc or h6 or something..?
who's the most cuddleable regular?
>>482552484God, tv show is soulless I feel bad for it

>>482569882>If it flops, Halo just ceases.I've wanted this to be true for over ten years. But Phil is about to retire so maybe the new leadership will put Halo out of its misery.
What's an unpopular opinion that you hold onto regardless of what people say?>Halo 5 had and still has the best version of Super Fiesta to exist in modern halo.
>>482582714Given that there's only two games with super fiesta I don't think that's remotely an unpopular opinion.
>>482570723Not too bad. Any level with lots of open space is manageable. Truth and reconciliation was the real ball buster

>>482585076damn I want to play 4 now
>>482586180Based.
Is this the halo thread?
>>482594137
>>482582714>>482583106>>482586180>>482587836The only fans that hate Reach, 4, 5 and Infinite MP just want Halo 2/3 MP forever. Halo 3 definitely had a go to weapon with the BR. You either had a BR or a power weapon or you lost a vast majority of the fights. Pretty much every Halo game up until 5 had a base weapon that has stood out as being the one you used or else.
>>482598057I hate all of those but 5, what does that make me?
>>482598057>>482600057You hate everything but CE and 5? Why?
>>482601091They're the only ones with good gameplay. No I'm not trolling.
>>482603285Why did Escharumposting die?
>>482601241>They're the only ones with good gameplay. No I'm not trolling.Care to explain?
>>482603397It didn't take well with the most Dubious fans
Are assassinations Halo?
>>482598057they are boring
>>482604972NTA but CE and 5 are the only halo games with actual fun Sandboxes. Every other game is dominated by one gun.2 and 3 it’s the BR, Reach has the dmr, 4 it’s the BR again and infinite it’s the sidekick. While the magnum in CE is broken the other weapons are equally busted, the AR has a really fast melee speed, the Plasma rifle has a secret stun ability and the shotgun has actual range.5 is similar in that every gun is useful. The storm rifle for example in 5 is arguably the best plasma weapon in the series. I remember 2/3 fans complaining about 5 having to many “hyper-lethal” weapons which destroyed the precision meta the past games fanbases had been conditioned to like. Naturally the halo fanbase shat their diapers in unison. This promoted 343 to make a balance update that made the magnum broken. But at launch it had the most balanced sandbox in the series.
uh guys? you're gonna wanna see this...

>>482628535bitter
>>482628535This is the xbox general, my dude
>>482619670This is such a retarded post. Halo 1 is more one-weapon-dominated than any other game in the series. There's nothing wrong with that, I absolutely love Halo 1, but you just went full retard.>4 of the 8 weapons are basically never used>2 of the 8 weapons are power weapons with limited availability (albeit there are some maps with snipers readily available)>1 of the 8 weapons is only effective at very close rangeThat leaves the M6D.
>>482614350Of course. They have been in every single Halo game and have been called such since Halo 2.
>>482629839>Halo 1 instead of CE.>M6D instead of just calling it the magnum. >4 > 8 weapons are never used. B-because t-they just aren’t okay! >I totally love halo “1” you guys but let me tell you how I don’t know how to use 90% of the sandbox. Fake fan.
>>482630541>Halo 1 instead of CE.Either works. CE is more common obviously.>M6D instead of just calling it the magnum.You're the fake fan here. It's the Pistol, CE Pistol, but never "magnum"
have a great day guys
>>482641380Thanks, dear.
>>482641380Fuck off
>>482598057I want Halo 1 gameplay forever yet Bungie and 343 cannot 1up that gameplay. The infamous "I Want Halo 3 but better curse."
Happy Juneteenth

>>482630541>calling it CEHalo hater detected. Jason and co said that they hate the CE subtitle. It was just added by (((microsoft))) marketing cucks. If you prioritize (((microsoft))) over Bungie when it comes to Halo you are a massive fucking faggot, a kike, an israel lover, a shill, a Halo hater, a tranny, a faggot, circumcised, and gay.>objecting to calling the M6D by its actual nameHalo hater detected. If you want to call it magnum, fine, but to say that someone else is a 'fake fan' for calling it the M6D? Are you fucking retarded? The game doesn't even call it magnum, the game calls it pistol, and the proper name is M6D. So you are a massive fucking faggot and a Halo hater.>4 weapons never usedGo and actually play the game faggot. 99% of the time people do not use those 4 weapons (other than shitters that use the AR because they start with it and don't know any better)>>482648753So just keep playing Halo 1. That's what I do.>>482598057>just want Halo 2/3 MP forever*1/23 is good but it's just a dumbed down 2 so why play 3 when you can play 2 instead? 1 and 2 are by far the best.
>>482660816Combat Evved is the name of the game
It's just called Halo.

what the sigma
>>482628407I don't remember the beta too well since I played maybe two days of it drunk the whole time. I remember the weapons feeling similar, but the sound effects were all high pitched beeps and clicks and the maps were dark as fuck. Launch sandbox was the best in the whole series with only the storm rifle being arguably OP, but they butchered everything except the pistol in the September of 2016 weapon nerfing update. The plasma caster in particular was shidded on if I recall. Not that guy, just spouting the same opinion I've been giving for years now.
>>482661973>It's just called Halo.the series? Yeah we know.The first game is officially titled Halo: Combat Evolved, or as we usually just say, CE
>>482670249there's no fucking colon after it you stupid BITCHit's just Halo
>>482670381wrong againhttps://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halo:_Combat_Evolved
>>482670080Beta 5 had a super strong SMG but outside of that the most noticeable difference was in lighting.Post-TU 5 brought a lot of weapons to parity with each other in TTK and also completely changed Breakout.

Has anyone ever made a Halo 2 mod that just makes it play a little more like CE? With player and enemy health adjusted to match CE's, and rebalancing many of the returning weapons?I think that would be the best of both worlds. Good combat without the repetitive level design.
>>482707387you're kidding, of course

Personally speaking I think if more than half your team quits you should be able to quit with zero consequences.
>>482708719>Halo 2 mod that just makes it play a little more like CE?I’ve been searching for something similar. The closest is I could find was “halo 2 rebalanced” by Ruby if blue. Most other halo 2 mods slaps all type of shit together and is the opposite of “Just”.

Over a decade ago when Halo 4 released, there was talk everywhere (including here) about how much it seemed to be inspired by the Prime games
We don't see the similarities skitzo.

What's 7 even going to be about?
Man, changing firing properties for every single enemy in Halo 2 is a massive pain in the ass. I miss being able to copy entire blocks between tags.
>>482567379why not just continue working on Infinite ?
>>482754814>What's 7 even going to be about?Chief vs Atriox
>>482754814i wouldnt even know, it honestly seems pointless to make a new game given that Infinite is finally in a good spot, does 343 really wanna deal with another pissed off fanbase because of a barebones launch like 5 and infinite were ?
>>482757698>>482757271Infinite is jank code that 343i doesn't want to bother with anymore
>How Sparty Cheated in Plain EnglishThe HCS provides each player a drive with Halo Infinite on it. Players load their profile and button settings on it to prevent 30 minute breaks between games.Sparty brought a USB with his Home PC hard drive on it, to reformat the drive he was given. This is literally no different than just plugging in your own USB, except that it would still look like the HCS drive. He hid it, didn’t tell anyone until he was caught.The drive contained performance improving software in an effort to “overclock,” for higher FPS.This is not “boneheaded” as I’ve seen it been discussed. This is 100% malicious, deliberate cheating. This was an attempt to cheat, hoping the tournament admins were too computer illiterate to catch him, and he was betting he could talk his way out. That’s why he cooperated.This is the equivalent of juicing steroids in eSports. No one was supposed to do this, and he knew, thinking he was the smartest guy in the room.

This game is 2 and a half years old.They were going to release it 3 and a half years ago.In roughly 2 hours of co-op, I encountered more glitches and hiccups than in the entirety of my co-op experiences with any other game in the series, possibly even altogether.

>>482792952That's sad to hear because the co-op seems like the one ideal way to play Infinite.
>>482793979I mean, the game "works" well enough, most of the time. There are issues with collision detection that may make you have to abandon a vehicle that isn't destroyed, and there was a time where we had to leave a marine squad they wouldn't register as saved even after all enemies were killed.A good amount of the glitches seem to have something to do with the game trying to compensate how to spawn in NPCs or visual effects relative to multiple players. Pic related. This was the third time I found birds stuck in the ground like this. Sometimes the other players couldn't see them there. Sometimes they could.

Like both its parents it also features an open center, giving it an arena feel.>Structurally Solitude is most similar to Lockout. The entire area is arranged around an open central platform surrounded by four island towers, each separated by ramps and Lockout-style jumps. The central platform has a lower level, as do the side towers, and these towers are interconnected in pairs. Unlike Lockout, Solitude is symmetrical, with flag bases on the tops of the larger outside towers, making it good for small-scale classic CTF. A large hole in the center platform drops down to the bottom level, but a player that lands in the middle will shoot back up via a jump pad to the same height as the roofs of the surrounding towers.

>>482800989Halo 2 Vista Backlash - Buyer's Remorse - An open letter to the devs of H2V>Almost two years ago, Halo 2 was announced for Windows Vista. For many Halo players of the PC community, this marked a chance to get what we had always dreamed of - a chance for those who never owned the original Xbox version to experience what made one of the top selling games of all time. Community websites started up as havens for the members to take the game to its full potential and push it to the bleeding edge.>When the first screenshots were released to the public, the community was ecstatic. What was once a dream was finally shown to be a reality. Seeing the game running on a PC with enhanced visuals put trust in us and gave us hope for what supposedly lied on the road ahead. As the months progressed, we began to find ourselves more and more left in the dark. It wasn't before long that we were left completely update-less. Any updates we were getting were not exactly "updates" at all, but rather news hype just to raise awareness about the game being in development. When release drew closer and closer, it was then that the development news poured out. Unfortunately, it was this news which turned the game sour and lost the faith of many community members who once had great expectations for the game.>Halo 2 for Windows Vista is one game which has more demand and yet offers LESS than any other newer games being released today. What the problem here is the poorly done job of optimizing the game to work with the system it is running on. There is absolutely no reason in the world the game should require over a gigabyte of RAM to get decent loading times. There is no reason the game should be causing a CPU bottleneck and using over 1 GB of RAM (average) in some of the least system-intensive situations
>>482801257>Ever since Halo 2 for Windows Vista was announced, the question of whether or not the game would utilize LIVE's features like on the Xbox was entertained. When it was finally announced that the game would use Games for Windows LIVE, any doubt to the previous question was lost, but new questions arose - how LIVE was going to go about Gold and Silver memberships. Not long after, the community's questions were put to an end at last with the final confirmation that the user's experience of the game would be controlled by the amount they can afford to pay yearly to Microsoft. "Benefits" of Gold memberships as opposed to Silver were outlined which led to the fanbase being disgusted by this outrage.>Halo 2 has been a constant string of disappointment and problems since its Xbox release, and the Vista port answered the long-standing question of, "Could Halo 2 get any worse?" When it was announced by Bungie those many months ago, the thought of Halo 2 being all fixed up and shiny on the PC made the userbase giddy. However, that version of Halo 2 Vista never hit the store shelves; the only thing all the loyal fans were given was a botched port of a title they had beaten many, many times before on the Xbox. Lack of documentation and supplies, and the bugs of the Halo 2 Editing Kit made everyone who wanted to make a Halo 2 map cry. The incredibly cumbersome LIVE service made players and server administrators scratch their heads as doing tasks that are incredibly easy on any other game server are outrageously complicated and unnecessarily expensive in Halo 2Nothing has changed in the Halo community since then
>>482801257Halo 2 Vista didn't use DirectX 10 even if was written on the box, it's 100% a directX 9 game. MS/343 lied even then.MS/343 DECIDED to build CEA and H2A off the PC port in the first place, knowing the problems that came along with it.They were set up to fail, with many of the issues being due to issues with the source they were working off of. A lot of these feel like corners cut in the original porting process from Xbox to PC. Lots of "eh, close enough" going on.
>>482801489>The true loyalists held strong, and waited patiently for fixes for these problems, since the fans were promised continuing support for the title. But, even these TRVE fans would be let down severely...But enough about Halo 2 sucks dot com.

>>482822239Halo 5 and it's not even close. Know what kinda bugs me? No one owned an xbone (present company excluded) and yet everyone seems to have an opinion on Halo 5. Isn't that just quackin' crazy? Halo 4 has a narrative established about it, but at least that was on a console people actually owned. I just don't understand how people can be unanimously concluded on something they have no experience with besides youtube videos and word of mouth.
>>482822239Infinite obviously.The Halo cycle can go fuck itself. Infinite's campaign, warts and all, is far and away better than 5's, which is the consensus low point of the series. There's more enemy variety, the enemy encounters are considerably superior (lol prometheans), you actually play as the Chief and not some donut steel OC for 80% of the game, and the game is actually on a Halo ring. It also helps that the game actually looks like Halo, where as 5... well, just look at it, pic related.This comparison is made even easier when you consider that the version of Halo 5 multiplayer anybody cared about doesn't even exist anymore. Even if the game was populated right now on multiple platforms, it would be using the horrible TU modifications that literally nobody unironically defends.So yeah, Infinite. Not exactly a tough choice.
>>482822239Basically this >>482824556I could make a good argument for Vanilla 5 over Infinite (if we're just talking about mp) but 343 absolutely butchered it to death with that horrendous title update.

Whats with all the Asian cosmetics in this game its weird
>>482826083Halofans are a lot like Sonic fans. Halo is a niche ip that is well past its glory days but simultaneously exists as the flagship title for a former major player in the console market. As a result you end up with a secluded and extremely passionate core group of superfans that all act as if they're THE target individual that the games have been made for. You'll encounter elitism in any fanbase, but with Halo it seems like almost every person feels like they're THE #1 fan and that they alone should be allowed a seat at the table of opining on the subject matter and setting the record straight for what's what.

Halo Cycle isn't real, 5 was objectively better than slopfinite.
>>482826083I can elaborate on it a bit since I used to be in the modding scene until early last year. It's mostly a power trip thing and people thinking they are professional game devs.>only I (or we in the terms of the faggy ass teams that exist these days) can make PROPER mods for Halo>oh you don't know how to do x? well figure it out like we had to!>i will release the source/info so people can do what they want after i release my mods *they get burnt out/quit and never release anything*It's pretty fucking pathetic honestly. When even the most blue haired Californian game devs are more relaxed and open about talking about dev stuff than modders, you've got a pretty big problem.

Why do people keep calling the Bandit the DMR?The DMR was a longer range gun than the BR.The Bandit has less range than the BR.
>>482837918Because it's the same gun with lower magnification. And Bandit is a stupid name.
Same reason why it's called Halo 1.
>>482837918Because they don't actually play Infinite.
>>482837918Because it looks the same as the DMR minus the scope? Come on man, it's not that confusing.
H1 posters have gained the lead.
>>482837918It's like the DMR but they smartly changed the roles each gun has. They didn't want the BR being the only weapon that mattered at mid range like in older titles. The DMR is now strictly more of a mid/long range non-power weapon.
Why did Reverse Tag never come back after Halo 1? Or One-Flag without rounds.
Commando is the most underrated gun
>>482838781it's really good for getting assists but not for kills. I'll use it in big team objective games to weaken enemies going for hills.
>>482838878It's good at cleanup because it's one of the two non-power weapons with bleedthrough.
You DID hold onto your pre-order bonus for scalping, right?

>>482839410i never had that problem to begin with.perhaps not playing hugeass all the time will do that to me
>>482839837>and yet people say the new games don't play enough like the old gamesHow Infinite plays compared to classic Halo has very little to do with it not being more popular.It's a combination of:1. Not nearly enough content at launch. Gamers today have the attention span of a goldfish so if a game isn't super replayable with shit tons to do on day 1, it's not gonna be a huge hit.and:2. The Halo formula got dethroned by CoD 4 in 2007 and is never going to be the king of the hill again. Not enough of a guaranteed dopamine hit when you lose or go negative. In CoD you can go negative and lose the match and you'll still unlock 10 different things or progress on a gun/class/etc. In Battle Royales you die and can immidiately start a new game.Those are the two biggest factors. What percentage you apply to each of them mattering as far as the game not being popular is up for debate. What's not is the idea that the game isn't more popular because it doesn't play enough like Halo 3, or because it has Sprint, or doesn't have collision with allies, etc.

>>482841423>being obsessed over a 23 year old game that had nothing to really say See, being hyperfixated on Deus Ex I can kind of understand because of the story elements that are fun to talk about.

>>482841972if you have a laundry list then that's fine
>>482842103It's so easy to hide the laser until the last second that it barely matters in practice. The Skewer does the dedicated anti-vehicle weapon role way better.
>>482842353>It's so easy to hide the laser until the last secondIf that's the case then teh average player doesn't know that, because 99% of the time it's telegraphed for the entire charge up in MCC BTB. I agree the skewer is the best version of the weapon.
>>482842495In vanilla H3 people were better at hiding the lazer chargein MCC yeah they're all shitters who almost always give you time to get away or jump out
>>482842314>we get it, you bought the cat earsNo but that's partly because they look like shit. I'd buy better ones and a tail
>>482842495The average player is a dumbass, it's the obvious way to use the weapon once you learn that other people can see the charging beam.
>>482842650extremely based
>>482842353The skewer would be better if it leaned more into being a "physics says fuck you" sort of weapon too. >>482842495The average Halo player is fucking awful. In the hands of someone competent it's "no vehicles are allowed until I run out of ammo" weapon that will instantly kill with no warning.
>>482842705>The average player is a dumbassYes, and as a result, it's less of an issue than 2's homing rocket.
>>482842236The only people still playing Infinite are the people playing dress-up.
>>482842989The only people playing Infinite are the only people left playing Halo period.MCC is a dead game.
>>482843071Sadly this.MCC isn't even in the top 50 most played Xbox games.
>>482842914>The skewer would be better if it leaned more into being a "physics says fuck you" sort of weapon too.It sorta does, but Infinite's netcode sucks. My biggest issue with the gun is how slow its reload is, and how you can't cancel it at all.>>482842947Maybe so, I haven't played much Halo 2 BTB. I just don't see a point in building an opinion based on how the average retard with 20% accuracy plays.
Be honest, /hg/. If you bought anything in Infinite besides a battle pass, what was it? For me it was Mark V.
>>482843238Firefall, 2 weapon skin packs, an armor coating, the camo powerup charm, and the dog charm. But I only did it with rewards points and not a penny of real money. I'd have gotten Mark V too if it was fully customizable.
Zero because I’m a free chad. I also stopped playing the game because it makes me sad.
>>482843223>I haven't played much Halo 2 BTB.It's the sweatiest thing in the world in MCC lmao. Fucking 4v4 on Guardian or Lockout has nothing compared to the boys that are doing god knows what on Coagulation.
>If you bought anything in Infinite besides a battle pass, what was it?Nothing.
>>482843557>It's the sweatiest thing in the world in MCC lmao.Everything in H2MCC is sweaty. The only people on it are Colombians who have been playing on XBC daily since 2004. Even CE has a ton of noobs, but now Halo 2.
>>482843223>I just don't see a point in building an opinion based on how the average retard with 20% accuracy plays.Because the average player is going to have a huge impact on the experience you encounter when playing the game. More so than even the map you're playing on. If the average person using the Spartan laser was a super sweaty Faze Clan coach then it would be a different story. But it isn't. It's almost always some retard who telegraphs the entirety of the charge. So we can agree about the design issues the laser presents in a hypothetical vacuum, but in actual practice it's less of an issue than the thing it replaced in the previous game, at least right now in MCC that is.
>>482843238>Be honest, /hg/. If you bought anything in Infinite besides a battle pass, what was it? I've bought the battle passes for seasons 1, 2, 3, and Banished Honor. All with Microsoft Points though. Out of principle I refuse to spend actual money on the game.
>>482843818All it takes is getting into a lobby with 1 decent person on the enemy team to shut down all vehicle play and get you spawn raped by a Warthog for 15 minutes.
>>482843238I'm not installing shitfinite; I never have and I never will.
>>482843818It's so weird how Halo 3 in MCC is culturally different from Halo 360Back in the day the good players never got Sniper because noobs would rush for it.
>>482844012>All it takes is getting into a lobby with 1 decent person on the enemy team to shut down all vehicle playDoesn't tend to play out in practice. 117s always rush Spartan laser and then waste it before driving the elephant around like a retard for the whole match.I'm not gonna pretend I've never played against a good Spartan laser opponent, but as some one that is almost max blue shield in MCC, it's the exception, not the rule.
>>482844101current noobs, or 117s, are different from old time noobs.Most MCC players now have SOME understanding of the mechanics of the game, they're bad in different ways.But at the end of the day if you can reliably 4 and 5 shot, you're good.
Skewer would be better if it had a targeting laser.
>>482844325I get that it's not going to be like that the majority of the time, but I still dislike how the game is designed in that aspect and the kind of gameplay it allows. Spawning with snipers in BTB would probably be fine because most 117s can't hit shit with them, but I'd still rather not just for the off chance of getting someone to ruin the game.
>>482843818Eh not really. It's the decent players that are going to leave an impact rather than the average shitter. Like for example, Jetpacks in Reach were a problem. No one ever thinks of the random retards that would fly right up in the air and spray you with an AR. It was the fucking guys that picked up the Sniper Rifle, got to a place you couldn't reach and then spawn killed with it.
>>482844620that's fair
>>482844657>It's the decent players that are going to leave an impact rather than the average shitter. Average shitters overwhelmingly play BTB, get the best weapons, and waste them.
>>482844432The remaining MCC players, even if they suck, are people who play Halo because they liked it. Noobs on the 360 played Halo because it was popular and never got particularly invested in the gameplay.
>>482630541The people who made halo 1 call it halo 1 or combat evolved, but never halo ce
>>482844827>Yesterday
>>482844657>No one ever thinks of the random retards that would fly right up in the air and spray you with an AR.Plenty of bnet/waypoint kids defended the jetpack for that very reason. Because they never experienced a pervert abusing the systems in the most obnoxious ways possible. The same could be said for every AA except for arguably Hologrambecause it can still eat melee hits if you use it at the right time.
I love how you guys are going on about homing rockets and splazers as if this thing right here isn't the most blatant unbalanced piece of shit in BTB
>>482844657I'm going to reply a second time to vent about how retarded Reflection was, with one team being able to get rockets uncontested and fly up to the top of the map to fire upon sniper, or simply pick that up for free as well.
>>482844827*Thanos snaps you out of existence*
>>482845364AAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>482845250Oh jesus christ that activated some long buried memories of rushing sniper and getting a rocket up my ass. I am pretty sure I posted in a bunch of "jetpack is fine guys stop complaining about it :)" threads back in b.net saying "yeah nah shit's fucked the map flow and here is why".

>>482845364>>482845993Paul Russel (Bungie) wanted "Halo"MS wanted "Halo: Combat Evolved">Artist Paul Russel had another name in mind, one that was not popular among the team: "Halo". Despite the lack of internal enthusiasm, "Halo" stuck. Microsoft, Bungie's eventual publisher for the game, bristled at the title. Shooters didn't have names as cryptic, religious, and god forbid, feminine, as "Halo"; they had violent, pithy monikers like Doom, Quake, and Counter-Strike. But in an act of independence and vision typical of the studio, Bungie refused to budge on the name. Eventually, Microsoft came up with a compromise: a subtitleWhen using the tool Assembly to analyze and mod the maps of Halo 1, the Master Chief is explicitly referred to as "cyborg," so yeah, I'd say that was the original intention. Similarly, the Arbiter is called "dervish" in the Halo 2 map files>The engine's history began in Bungie's Pathways into Darkness, according to developer Chris Butcher:>The [Halo] engine is a direct-line descendant of the 1992 Pathways into Darkness engine originally written by Bungie for 68000 Macs using MPW and C. Not much remains except math functions and overall architecture, but the engine definitely has old roots. The path of descent runs through PiD to Marathon to Myth to Halo. In recent years it has shifted away from being primarily a player-driven renderer to being primarily a world simulation.Something closer to Halo would later evolve from Myth. In a Jason Jones interview, he says:>Halo didn't begin as a strategy game but the engine it uses started out that way. The engine Halo uses began as a next-generation Myth terrain engine, with polygonal units.There are two main groups of engine generations where the asset pipelines and features tend to be more similar to each other:>Halo 1, Halo 2, and Halo 3/ODST;>Bungie: Halo Reach, Destiny, Destiny 2>343: Halo Reach, Halo 4, and Halo 2 Anniversary MP>343: Halo 5 and Halo Infinite

>>482822239Left but with Halo 5's guns for how they feel to use.
Bungie didn't want to recycle any assets and wanted to start fresh with each game.>Halo CE>Halo 2>Halo 3>ReachEntirely new assets made from scratch. Marcus Lehto (creator of Chief) remade the original CE assets for the 20th anniversary.343 recycles and rehashes assets and it looks disgusting. CEA is a mix of H3, Reach, with new assets. H4 is a mix of Reach and new assets. Infinite is The Force Awakens of the Halo franchise
>>482861087Hmm. go check the textures for the H1 Banshee and H2 Banshee and report back. You might find something interesting.
>>482861087Halo 2 had the most cut content of any game in the franchise.>wall leaning, and there was also talk of ai using flashlights to find you in the dark after you shot out lights, that lighting system was later of course redone>There was going to be a whole level after Quarantine Zone where you're driving through the labyrinth of tunnels under the ring in a "Forerunner Tank", avoiding the Gravemind's tentacles as they flew past like freight trains.>In the original script when miranda was in a phantom she spoke with truth. Their plan was to send chief into the pit where the gravemind was and blow him and the flood up>Strapping a bomb to Chief's back in the chamber directly below the index chamber in the center of the Library>Flood leader effectively disabling the Ring by living on the trigger. Definitely showing that the flood is winning the 1000 year war with the sentinels on this halo opposed to installation 04's containment.>the flood invasion of earth being the a layer of the final "act" of the script. Something about "we wanted everyone to end up in the same place at the end". Ultimately, Chief, Arbiter, Truth, Cortana, Gravemind, and Mendicant were all supposed to come together, at the Ark on Earth, and there were a couple twists involved, but that's where it's shrouded in mysteryBy far the weirdest thing about Halo 2’s development is how Bungie grossly overestimated the power of the original Xbox and how they wasted a lot of time and resources on various things they knew well in advance simply would not make it into the retail game like the e3 demo and a new engine the hardware wouldn’t be able to support. They also wanted it to be a tactical shooter early on before changing it back towards the end and it really shows in how the enemies behave and how the game is horribly unbalanced on LegendaryHalo 2 had a lot of kino in it's core despite the flaws, sometimes in part because of the flawsIt was a pure passion project

Makes sense why Halo 4's and 5's story is so bad considering the Traviss books lead into 4 and 5>She has super genius Dr Halsey, the Mother of the S-II program, think it would be a great idea to get into an argument with, and draw a gun on a S-III with the intent to threaten and/or possibly actually shoot the S-III.>Enemy encounters are repetitive and annoying (crawlers and any type of "swarmer" enemy) (Every fight against knights follows the exact same formula: kill the watcher, then the bigger bionicle)>Enemy AI isn't as credible or impressive as previous games.>Painfully linear except for the beginning of REQUIEM and that one pelican section (Scorpion segment is a big corridor, Mantis segment is a big corridor, except when defending a certain area)>Halo 4 should have invoked the completely alien feeling of CE, with Mendicant Bias sending Chief to his creators at the end of Halo 3. We knew NOTHING about the Forerunners, they could have got so fucking weird and new with the lore and the designs and yet we get robots>the whole point of forerunner was that no one really knew it's purpose or how to harness it>Halo 4 armor being explained as 'nanomachines'>Forerunner weapons are just human weapons with different skins and less satisfying to use>Human weapons are the most fun to use, but barely get any ammo>Art style that screams "overdesigned" by Kenneth Scott>Halo 4: Rebuilding an Icon ViDocWhat did 4 add?

>>482862120In an ideal world I world go for a CE remake directed by Lehto if his Mark V, Warthog, MA5B and Scorpion remakes are anything to go by.
>>482862120>>482845993>>482862217CE and Reach were his passion projects. He hated Halo 2 and Arbiter.>Marcus LehtoWe always joked about Halo being a space opera. Halo 2 was the quintessential space opera moment of the saga. Playing the Arbiter worked fine in the end, but it was something that I didn’t like. I wasn’t excited about it, and I felt like it was going way off the rails from where we started.Bungie Halo was defined by Joe Staten's writing, Marty's score, Jaime Griesemer's sandbox, and Marcus Lehto's art and design direction, all of whom are now gone. Destiny alone has been coasting on Joe's old lore for almost a decade and god knows what their next IP is going to be like.
>tfw long time Halo fan>Halo is unabashedly a power fantasy, Marcus Lehto and Joe Staten described it using that EXACT terminology.>Play Halo Custom Edition occasionally, mostly play custom maps made by the community>Most of Halo 2's writing and lore fleshing out was done by Joseph Staten, who alongside Eric Nylund, basically invented the entirety of Halo lore: Fall of Reach, First Strike, Ghosts of Onyx, Contact Harvest and Shadow of Intent>Max Hoberman was the lead Multiplayer designer on Halo 2 and Halo 3. Max Hoberman is MVP of H2 multiplayer. He and his team designed the whole thing in the crunch time of h2 release like map dual wielding, design, xbox live, UI, xbox 360 dashboard, and all that stuff>SKW: I'll keep this one simple; Halo 3 is what we've always wanted Halo to ever be.>Marcus Lehto intended Reach multiplayer to be a wacky clusterfuck. It was never meant to be competitive but retards like MLG and 343 didn't understand that.>2011>see the canon be destroyed and raped into a ditch by 343i>Need to have grasp of the Halo 4 extended fiction: Greg Bear's Forerunner Saga and Karen Traviss' Kilo-5 Trilogy to understand the story>Makes sense why Halo 4's and 5's story is so bad considering the Traviss books lead into 4 and 5.>Frank O'Connor or Frankie, is literally a member of Resetera and regularly posts tons of self-hating anti-white garbage>"Halo 3? Now thats an old piece of jank, Halo 5 is an upgrade in every way, 3 looks like its about toy soldiers in some cereal box world">Halo 5 is CoD: Spartan IVs>Halo Infinite was a 10 year project that was broken >tfw can at least take pleasure in the fact that no matter where the series goes it can't be as bad as GOT and Star Wars
Based Lehto SHREDS Halo 5
>>482862486My favourite Frankie Fun Fact is how he thought Halo 3 ended with the Covenant and UNSC teaming up to fight the Flood. Certainly explains the fuck out of the "I thought we had a truce with the Covenant" line in H4.
>>482862130>Art style that screams "overdesigned" by Kenneth ScottAlso he has a teeth fetish or something. Seriously, why so many of the Forerunner things have fucking teeth in H5.

>>482888608Bait-and-switch storytelling works when it's done well. Halo 2 did it well.The problem with Halo 5's story isn't as much the storyboarding itself as it is the actual execution of the plot details.Chief being hunted, Cortana being the antagonist, bringing in Blue Team, these are all potentially interesting ideas if handled appropriately. Halo 5 just did a terrible job at handling itself at all.
So his story really isn't going to be continued or resolved?If so, just a reminder that he went undefeated. The only Halo character to do so.

>>482889664MS outsourced Halo PC to GearboxMS outsourced Halo 2 Vista to Hired Gun (the whole "In Gravemind Legendary, you die as soon as the level starts" thing was introduced in Halo 2 Vista. The OG Xbox version actually gave you a couple of seconds to register that Brutes were in fact in front of you)343 outsourced CEA and H2A to Saber Interactive using the inferior PC ports as the base343 outsourced terminals in Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary to Sequence343 outsourced Reach DLC maps (Defiant Map Pack/Anniversary Map Pack) and Halo 4 DLC maps to Certain Affinity (Former 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 meetingsHalo 5 and Infinite do not support split-screen multiplayer or LAN play of any kind in any of its modes.
>>482890994Halo 3, ODST, Reach, and 4 ports for MCC were also outsourced to United Front GamesMCC's UI was outsourced to Ruffian GamesThe only actual part of MCC that 343 is responsible for is the networking, you know, the part that doesn't work.
>>482850019it's ok but I only need Reach remake

>>482890994>Halo 4 is a broken retarded mess because Halo 4 was the only 343i title actually done in houseAbout 97% of 4's multiplayer content was made by Max Hoberman and Certain Affinity in Texas. 343i's biggest contribution is forcing the Create-A-Class and taking all non-power weapons off the maps.Halo 5's maps meanwhile were actually made by 343i which is why they're noticeably worse, except for the BTB maps which are made by community forgers.
>>482894427The original batch of maps, sans Empire and Fathom, were pretty good. But everything post-release was garbage.

>>482888608It's how Halo 2 starts. There's nothing fucking wrong with that retard, no one said that would be the entirety of Halo 2. As for 5 its because the ads are completely irrelevant to the game.

>>482905213Then get a Series X.Don't be cheap about this.All Xbox Owners should have Game Pass Ultimate also unless you're really not getting the value.Go online and get a year or two off CD Keys and use a VPN to unlock.

>>482905493Halo 2's marketing was entirely about the defense of Earth. The tagline is "Earth will Never be the Same."In reality the game is largely not about Earth at all and story-wise Master Chief isn't even the main character.Halo 2 is great, but the marketing was intentionally misleading.

Are the rumors true?Is the franchise really dead?
>>482944849nah
>>482944849yea
Imagine working on a franchise you hate for 10 years of your life. 343 devs are fucking insane.
have a nice comfy night halobros
>>482946905they didn't hate the franchise after they turned it into something else
>>482946905>Imagine working on a franchise you hate for 10 years of your lifeThose people really only worked on Halo 4.343i is more different than they were at their inception than Bungie was when they left MS.
>>482949121What a strange prioritization of importance of characters.1. Master Chief (makes sense)2. Halsey (sure?)3. Buck (way too high)4. Johnson (Why is he below 2 and 3? Because he's dead?)5. Laskey 6. Locke7. Linda8. Palmer9. Miranda10. Vale11. Carter12. Emile13. Kat

Original trilogy is pretty much perfect but I would have done one thing different>Thel and Rtas get to Threshold mining facility, as in the game>Thel fights heretics, as in the game>Thel gets to hangar, engages either Sesa or some other high ranking heretic, but doesn't kill Sesa>Sesa then says the things to Thel that he actually says at the beginning of the confrontation like 'open your eyes', but then instead of immediately attacking without giving Thel a chance to respond, he waits for Thel's response>either Thel is immediately receptive, or they fight for a bit but then Thel becomes receptive before either dies>this, rather than Gravemind, is why Thel questions the Great Journey and allies with JohnsonAs for how this lines up with the Gravemind/Sacred Icon quest, one of two options:>the Sacred Icon quest takes place before fighting the heretics; Truth can still tell Thel about Sesa right when appointing him Arbiter but he can be sent to acquire the icon firstor>something interrupts the fight between Sesa and Thel, at a point where Sesa has said enough to get Thel to start thinking, but before Thel has completely come to believe and side with Sesa, such that Thel still willingly takes on the task to find the Sacred Icon but with lingering doubt in his mind throughout; later on, after Thel joines Johnson and convinces Rtas to do the same, they link up with Sesa so Thel, Rtas, Sesa, and Johnson fight together to take down TartarusThen Sesa can also be in Halo 3 a little bit.I don't like how in the actual game Sesa attacks Thel before giving him a chance to respond
As I suspected... nothing... but a Ken

obsessedI feel bad for you
just had a match of halo 2 fiesta where i went 86-11 and dropped a 35 kill streak shit was so cash
>>482540804best map in the franchise?
>>482978123obviously
>>482978123it's a tad too big
>>482961226damn an anon with some sense, a rare thing in the halo fanbase
>>482979347for 8v8 yeah, but if it had 12v12 like infinite BTB it would play even better. and if MCC had 64-player customs like they teased 2 years ago, it would be an incredible map. personally I really enjoy the enormous maps in CE.
anybody else enjoy halo infinite and think it is a fun game
>>482981401I like firefight but the pvp sucks my ass
>>482981479what do you dislike about the pvp anon? the skill based matchmaking or something else?
>>482981401no
>>482981401>anybody else enjoy halo infinite and think it is a fun gameI think at this point the multiplayer is actually pretty solid. It has problems, but no Halo mp is perfect, and at this point Infinite plays really well and has a lot of variety. The match Composer helped a lot.The campaign on the other hand is still really lackluster, and if somebody told me it was their least favorite in the series I couldn't blame them. For me it's only better than 5's.
>>482981997>but no Halo mp is perfectHalo hater detected.
>>482981401It's 343's best game, but anybody that is a diehard no speint/clamber purist will still get filtered.
>>482982130You're not being serious if you think CE's mp is "perfect". I love it, but there's still plenty of problems.
>>482982130As someone that considers CE still the best game in the series, it's not perfect. And Bungie would say the same.
>>482982308>>482982235it was a slapstick comment, you retards
>>482981997appreciate the honest answer. when the campaign first dropped, I worked in a lab with a couple of longtime Halo fans. We all loved the campaign.>>482982130CE is imo the best halo mp but the magnum is obviously a pretty glaring flaw in the sandbox.
>>482982308Bungie didn't make CE, Gearbox did.
>>482982378>make post>people respond to post>surprisedgrunt.tiff
>he's back for more after getting btfo last nightI'll make some more popcorn
>>482982402I liked Infinites campaign more when I first played it. The replayability isn't great imo, which kind of shocks me.

>>482982631Just wait. I'm working on a video montage of bungie devs calling the game CE outloud.I have about 45 seconds so far but I'm Trying to get enough material so I can play the entirety of "In the hall of the mountain King" over it.
Is this the CE thread?
>>482982869the hammer doesn't have lunge, do you mean parry? and there is a ranking system outside of the battle pass. personally I think the AR is balanced extremely well, probably the best AR in the series. I do agree though that the sidekick's crosshair bloom is fucking awful to deal with and its time to kill is insane at close range.
>>482982869>AR is too strongI disagree>pistol sucksI disagree>sprint only exists to slide aroundFair>maps suckThe community maps are much better than 343's and at this point there's a lot more of them>btb isn't 12v12 Fair enough but 8v8 is fine>vehicles being dropped in on btb mapsSure? I don't see the huge problem with it.>weapon rack randomnessWhat's wrong with them?>vehicles suckI disagree>spawning with Bandit instead of BRWhat's the actual problem here outside of "muh BR"? Because if that's the argument then you can't simultaneously be upset that traditional BTB goes past 16 players. The Bandit is a better mid range weapon than the BR, which is for longer range.>no dual wieldingAgreed>seasonal ranks instead of 1-50I don't see the huge issue but I can see where you're coming from.>no normal shotgunAgreed>hammer having lungeAgreed

Notice how it's called "Halo General" and not "CE General"
>CESHUT THE FUCK UP
Waiter! I'd like an onion pizza with stuffed crust, a stromboli with steak onions and extra cheese, two orders of the general tsos chicken, beef lo mein, a platter of sushi, and fried haddock. Make it snappy and stop sassing or no tip.
>>482981401I like a things about it but then it also has a lot of things that piss me off or just make me feel like missed opportunities.Especially the campaign.I like the multiplayer more.
>>482984476toomanyhexagons
WHERE THE FUCK IS ITIT SHOULD BE DONE BY NOWTHREE YEARS AND ONLY ONE (1) WEAPON TO SHOW FOR IT
>>482984259that's fair. I have always been a more casual player who mostly just plays BTB, and 12v12 isn't a huge jump from 8v8 as long as the map is larger. I don't think 12v12 would work well on a map like HCE blood gulch or H3 standoff, but the infinite maps are designed with it in mind. and a map like HCE infinity or H2 waterworks would probably play just fine with 12v12. but that's just my opinion desu
>>482984476The campaign feels like some mega construx play set in a giant mega construx playspace. Idk how to describe it everything just feels very kiddy, like all the vehicles are made of Legos and the characters are all action figures, and everything looks like clean, dull plastic. I hate it.
>>482984476>we will never find out what the glowing cave on the put of bounds area is for
>>482984568more weapons and vehicles would be cool but I never really expected that. I'm used to the sandbox being what it is at launch. I guess "live service" creates a different expectation, but the infinite sandbox already felt pretty tight to me.
why are there no cows in halo

>>482909194why does an A.I. need nipples?
>>482985197spartans have always been one step removed from action figures or power rangers, imo that's what makes them look so interesting. the worst offender in making them look dull is halo reach.
>>482985079halo 3 had this problem as well yeahInfinite really is Halo 3 2
>>482985472to put in my mouth
>>482985576Based
>>482985576I'll have what he's having!
>>482985495This doesn't look like dull plastic, that armor looks like thick, heavy metal. There's something wrong with how infinite handles physically based refendering because everything in that game looks like flat plastic.
>>482985889it's funny you say that, everything in infinite looks very solid, heavy, and durable to me. I think the sound design has a lot to do with that too. I guess this is just two different interpretations of the art style.
>>482986332I look at >>482848415 and all I see is a 1:12 scale plastic toy
>>482986465well I can't deny that that one looks like an action figure, especially the way it's rendered. A lot of the esports org armor coatings look plastic too. a lot of the coatings I use in game have scratches, little dimples, and markings that make them look like damaged metal to me. I think that infinite draws a lot from both 3 and reach in its art style, the former being very plasticky imo (but I respect that you don't see it that way), and the latter being very gritty, dirty, and washed out.
Play Infinite
The true plastic Spartan is H3 Master Chief. Seriously, what the fuck were Bungie thinking going from what he looked like at e3 2006 to "dark green plastic man" shaders?
>>482987136Halo 3 ruined everything
Halo 2 ruined everything, but y'all aren't ready for that conversation yet.
>>482987136personally I like it. can't stand FPS games that are a boring blur of browns and grays. Halo, especially 3, is best when it is vibrant enough to immediately separate players, vehicles, and weapons from the environment>>48298713122-0 well done anon
>>482987327go on.
would you be able to pull the trigger?
Fuck Marathon, when's Oni getting revived?
>>482988449They'd turn her into a black MTF tranny
>>482988520WAY too obvious, Hailey.
>>482988717You know it's trueThey'd also turn the game into a hero shooter
I genuinely cannot believe what they're doing to marathon. Jason Jones is seriously the Anti Christ. He doesn't give a fuck about his own creative works.
a halo hero shooter could honestly be very fun. but this fanbase is too traditionalist too even consider the idea
Multiplayer troons will kill themselves before they hit 40
>>482988934They wasted a decent amount of Infinite's dev time and resources making one and canned it because it was such a bad idea.
Funny how all multiplayer focused games all have the worst practices of modern gaming pigslop. Makes you wonder about the audience of multiplayer focused games.
>>482989337what an insightful post
>>482989381You're a fucking pig Buy that $20 skin piggy
>>482989337>Funny how all all 1.2 buckle my shoe
>>482989126Yes, I read about that too. I'm just thinking that Reach and 4's loadout systems aren't that different from a hero shooter in the style of team fortress 2. Obviously, I don't want a hero shooter Halo to completely replace arena shooter Halo. just thinking the concept, if executed well, could be pretty fun. a spartan, elite, brute, grunt, etc. class system would be a fresh style of gameplay for the franchise, but I will admit there's a million ways it could go wrong.

I wonder what will be the next thing multiplayer pig sloppers will be cool with devs putting in their games. My bet is on forcing players to dox themselves in order to play to prevent cheating and ban evasion.
