Halo 2 flood missions are very fun, why do they have such a bad reputation
they're not, and halo 2 falls off hard after metropolis
>>543733524yeah, you sound super qualified to call anyone a loser
>>543733718It's because you play as the Arbiter for almost all of them and people didn't like the Arbiter in Halo 2
I like the Arbiter :P
No you don't.

>>543738534I also have fatigue from Asian people, except for the Japanese and maybe Koreans
>>543734009I never understood the arby hate. I always thought elites were super cool, formidable and honorable enemies in CE and arby was the perfect character to be that one elite you get to play. Even if he was branded or whatever everyone in the covenant still respected his authority and prowess because he was that cool. Imo bungie did a good job at making him into the master chief equivalent of the covenant
>>543733718I don't like the Flood.I didn't want to play as Arbiter.I was disappointed with Halo 2 in general, it was several steps forward in terms of multiplayer but a massive leap back in the campaign. I wanted to play more of Halo 1, but on Earth. Halo 2 was not the Halo 1 sequel I wanted. Even the graphics looked worse in many cases.>>543740330It's not that we don't like the Arbiter, it's that he was forced. I wanted to play as Chief and defend earth from the Covenant. In 2 you switch to the Covenant...to fight more Covenant? In places you don't really care about? I didn't want to hear about the Covenant's politics, I wanted to kick their asses off Earth. Halo 2 expanded the universe too quickly. And they whisked you off to so many different locations abruptly, and combined with having to play another character, it all felt too disjointed. That being said, Halo 3 Arbiter is great, and I probably wouldn't have cared about him if it weren't for Halo 2. Maybe it's like learning your multiplication tables. It sucked doing it and you were forced to learn it. But many years later you don't know how you could live without it; it's a part of you. Experiencing Halo 2 definitely makes Halo 3 shine even more.

What's your ideal version of Cortana?For me it's Halo 2 Anniversary Blur Cutscene Cortana's face and hair, with Halo 4 Cortana's body, and Halo CE Cortana's color scheme and 'outfit' design/pattern (basically CE's textures but up-scaled to fit the higher-poly model).
>>543730363https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZOkF0McZKIw&t=176s
>>543740330Similar story to suddenly making a space sci-fi COD. It's just not what most people are there for. Add on top of that the way most Covenant weapons weren't quite as fun feeling as UNSC. Me?I had no issue with it and the atmosphere carried me easily, but that's not the case for most people. Could add a third layer in the form of having to cut about 1/3rd of Halo 2 so people didn't get the intended Arbiter experience either.
>>543743589Гaлo! Come to think of it I've never heard Halo's Russian dub if there is one.
>>543740330It makes sense when you remember that the Halo audience back then wasn't mostly nerds. It was the dudebro series, John Normie just wants to shoot aliens as the green guy on the cover then play MP.
>>543749567That was ten years ago.This is now.
>>543749567I'm a tad surprised it's been that longGuess it's because not much progress has been made
>>543747121Thank goodness they brought back CE's soul in Halo 3. Now that was a genuine return to form.
>>543733718most shitters just can't into picking up sentinel beams and also can't into using the energy sword without getting sucker punched
>>543740330There was basically no arbiter hate. It is an artificial issue and no proof has ever been produced for it. People will post unverifiable blog posts and bring up a dead website which is far from viable. There should be hundreds of video essays about why the arbiter sucks if people really hated him.

GOOD MORNING MINTO
Shame on you
While I did see the previous thread, I didn't originally intend on actually making a special celebration for it. 10 Years of /hg/ (3.0) felt long overdue to me, probably because of the barrage of Battlefield 6 and death of Xbox news and aych gee happenings that went on after the Halo 5 Forge testing fell apart. But alas, I want to give something back to y'all.I joined this place a bit more than five years ago. It was during then that all the shitposting about BTB being broken and Bloons having more players than Shitfinite was happening, and I got heavily invested in learning about everyone here and partaking in the discussion. Not too long after I started my autistic crusade to host lobbies and cement myself in a position of leadership authority and the rest is history.From the no mic euros to the shitposting forced posters, from the humble and modest oldfags to the cancerous femboys, I have accepted all new guys as my equals, and maybe even my friends if I'm feeling lucky. I love the incoherent trashtalk and I cherish the few select moments of passion I see in your personalities. Even if CEmake is a total dud and we get flooded with snoys, I'll still remember all the ridiculous, totally not normal for imageboard standards shit I did with you all.Take care, Halo General. Maybe one wishful Friday night we'll get to queue up for Halo again.

>>543777481there is nothing incorrect about that statementPS5/Xbox is a multiplat market
>>543778071xbox is dead because they went multiplatform
>>543778638>xbox is deadprobably yeah>because they went multiplatformlol no
>>543779069no probably about it.nintendo and sony are both doing fine. it's only xbox having these problems, because they completely destroyed all their exclusives (like halo). even COD is now imploding.
>>543778638Then why isn't Playstation dead? pic related.This isn't the 90s anymore.Xbox died because they launched a less powerful machine in gen 8 for $100 more and had abysmal PR surrounding it. But the games that people buy both consoles for are essentially the same the overwhelming majority of the time. If you want to make the argument that Xbox should have leaned into exclusives more in order to distinguish itself from Playstation, that's fine, but it still wouldn't explain how PS5 does just fine despite everybody buying it for games that are also on Xbox.

What surprised me most about /hg/ playing Halo 5 Forge was how wrong literally everyone was about it.You had people saying it straight up doesn't work and they were just wrong.Then you had other people acting like it worked fine.The truth is it actually works well enough to toy around with, but not for something consistently to host game nights in.
Halo is about to get btfo
>>543785850
>>543780014Xbox One was selling at its best after it brought games to Windows. PS5 didn't have a giant sales explosion after Microsoft ended exclusives. And lastly if PlayStation published all their games on Xbox tomorrow do you really think it would turn Xbox sales around?

Is this the halo thread?
>>543793823hit games are hit games Oblivion Remastered and Wukong were among the most played games for a while more recently. Doom the Dark Ages was kind of a dud, but Eternal was high on chart lists for a while.It's very easy to get convinced by terminally online parts of the internet that games like bloodborne are what is driving console sales, but the truth is the average PS4 owner has never even heard of it.There is an argument to be made though that Halo specifically has an intrinsic link to the lifeblood of the Xbox brand, so when that suffers, you can argue Xbox does. This however does not apply to other Xbox properties. Hell, we saw Gears of fucking War come to PS5 earlier this year and literally nobody cared lol.But yeah we will see tomorrow what Xbox does with Halo and its future.
>>543796486Not for much longer. Tomorrow we're closing shop.

Seeing some misinformation peddled here.Anybody telling you they are intentionally "spreading out" the goods on the new game/project announcement throughout the event is either intentionally lying to you or has no idea what they're talking about.To be clear, the announcement of the new game/project is happening at 1pm (Pacific Time, aka 4pm Eastern Time/9pm UK Time)Then, one hour later at 2pm Pacific Time, there is a "project deep dive" where they will go further into detail.Everything else is either for the HCS Competition (Esports stuff) or other non-new project events. That's not to say Halo Studios won't start posting stuff online, but you don't need to watch any of the other HCS tournament to get additional New Game details. There are some other potentially interesting things happening, such as a Halo 5 dev team Q&A panel at 5pm, but not about the new project.tl;drIf you only care about the new game announcement, watch at 1pm Pacific.If you want every bit of detail on the new game at the tournament, watch from 1-3pm Pacific.
>>543819140oh, and make sure you're watching the MAIN HALO STREAM on twitch or youtube, NOT the HCS stream.
>>543760236>majorThe fact that there hasn't been a single leak tells me it is going to be a massive nothingburger
There are barely any leaks because of most of the work is done in India.
I didn't even stop and consider the lack of leaks from Halo. They've most likely not started working on CE or the multiplayer game. Like, at all. That's why Halo Infinite didn't have any leaks in its "6 years" of development, cuz they only started working on it last second.
>>543819280Don't you think it's weird that Microsoft aren't using their Xbox channels to stream a game reveal?
>>543828223What are you implying?
>>543824786I both hope this and don't.If it's nothing or just something uninteresting like a Playstation or Switch port, it means the despair of a new shitty game is postponed. But if we do see something new and shitty, it's better to get it over with sooner than later.
>>543730363>.the endless won btw.jpg>That was 24 years agoLooks like clay graphics anyway...
Can I say something? I'm more disappointed that some new indie dev haven't come out and released their spiritual successor to Halo than 343's handling of the franchise. I expect nothing but failure from 343, I've made peace with that. But it's been over 20 fucking years, and you're telling me not ONE fucking fan that grew up with Halo hasn't started up their own gaming studio and made a proper spiritual successor? And don't say Splitgate. You know that shit ain't it.
>>543828526I'm not implying anything I'm just saying it's very weird. It could be anything.>it's not a game reveal>it's just an announcement for a later showcase date>new management avoid talking to microsoft gaming as much as possible
>>543829407Ah.
>>543829395We can only hope it'll happen one day but you have to understand that Halo is a pretty unique experience that isn't that easy to replicate.There's a lot of nuance to Halo's design that I think a lot of people don't even notice, if they make a game that takes inspiration from it (such as Call of Duty) they take the more basic and easy to understand concepts like regenerating health, a 2 weapon limit and a grenade button, and aren't able to see beyond that.And that's not even including how vehicles are handled, I've NEVER seen any other game do such seamless transitions from on foot shooting to vehicle gameplay like Halo.It'll happen someday but for now we're in the era of Doom and Quake style games making a comeback, especially since those are both very simple and easy to replicate.
>>543829918I guess that's fair. There are various small, easy-to-miss details here and there that players and even game developers may not notice in Halo unless they have studied it. They seem small, but the moment you take those features out and play the game, the average player would notice the feel of the change, but wouldn't be able to point it out, unless you studied it like I said before.
>>543829395Borderlands took very direct inspiration from Halo for gameplay. You could also look back at what Halo used for inspiration and play that (Unreal).For multiplayer you the same issue as Quake. People just want to play Quake so you won't find an audience if you're not different enough.
>>543829918>I've NEVER seen any other game do such seamless transitions from on foot shooting to vehicle gameplay like HaloBorderlands, unironically. The vehicle combat is dogshit in that franchise though.
>>543830881>>543831043Borderlands is a perfect example of what I mean by a dev just taking basic surface level mechanics.Beyond the shields and other FPS mechanics that Halo popularized, it's nothing like Halo. Hell, the shields are basically the only thing you could say resemble Halo, take them away and just have the health regen and there's no connection at all, really.
>>543830881>so you won't find an audience if you're not different enough.That's also true, but I do want to offer a counterpoint. If a new game is announced and you hear that it's based on an older popular game's formula that hasn't been touched or treated properly in years, people are going to check out the new game that took heavy inspiration from that older title and would see it as some pseudo-sequel, basically.
Los Eternos han llegado
>>543831430This happened and is still happening with Quake. I believe Dusk was one of the first games to bring about the resurgence of what the kids these days are calling "boomer shooters" people wanted that because of how repetitive and samey the modern FPS space has gotten, I'm 100% confident a competent fan made spiritual successor to Halo would have similar appeal.
>>543831687
There never has been a true Halo clone and there never will be.
>>543831690I really gotta try out Quake one of these days. But yeah, we have to wait and see when a spiritual successor will come out. I look forward to it.
>>543831849>There never has been a true Halo clone and there never w....
>>543829395You won't get a Halo-like game out of indie devs because they develop for PC and are thus inclined to make a PC shooter, not a console one. There's a big difference in speed and feel.The non-shooting parts like physics, vehicles, and social features are also way too complicated for an indie dev to get right, and these are crucial to a Halo experience.
>>543832087strangely, it gave me GTA San Andreas vibes
>>543832076Well both Quake 1 and 2 got remasters a few years ago that are quite good, they even got brand new official expansions to go along with them so now's a great time for it.
>>543832240I never understood this logic because playing Halo on PC with MKB feels so much better and funner than playing with a controller to me. Well for singleplayer at least, controller players get aim assist which feels bad to play against but the solution is to just not have aim assist in a fan made game.
>>543832306Oh that's awesome. Thanks!
>>543832512Halo does feel better with mouse and keyboard, but it doesn't feel as good as other shooters with mouse and keyboard - shooters that play in ways that people have come to expect on PC and make up the vast majority of the market that indiefags would be looking at.It's like playing a game that's been modded to work in VR versus a game that was built for it from the start. Yeah it's cool, maybe more so from the original experience, but it's not likely to be as good of a VR game as actual VR games.
>>543833083I still can't agree or understand that. The only thing I can imagine you might be feeling is the difference in movement physics, Halo has no air strafing or bunnyhopping and I actually like that. I like the slower more deliberate movement system. Plus movement isn't even really all that important for Halo since you aren't expected to dodge attacks since you have a shield.
>Quake
>>543833589Bullet magnetism is still a big factor without aim assist. This combined with the fuckhuge crosshairs makes shooting feel like it's taking a backseat to positioning or even strafing (CE magnum duels) which is different from most PC shooters.>I like the slower more deliberate movement systemThe thing is, Halo's movement is only really deliberate *because* it is slow. Something like Unreal Tournament or Quake are even more deliberate while being much faster.That's not really a bad thing, but it is niche and probably too much so for anyone to care to replicate.
>>543831290Can you explain more what types of things Halo does that you want in other games?>>543831430Can you name a multiplayer example of this happening?
>>543789897It's comfy
>>543834860Remove bullet magnetism then, ez.>>543835118Grenade fuses only start once they're impacted a solid surface or come to a complete stop in Halo 1 and cannot be cooked. This makes them more consistently useful during combat.Only precision weapons may deal headshot damage but only to unshielded enemies.Shields in general and how different weapons deal different amounts of damage to them.Just the way vehicles and turrets are implemented in general, hijacking, splattering, teamwork with warthogs, etc.To name a few of the more obvious things to come to my mind.
Halo should play like HaloBullet mag is part of that, at least for controllers
>>543837437trvke
>>543837437Nah.
>>543837660thank Goodness you're not in charge of Halo
>>543837748hey, be niceit's not like Classic Halo is changing to remove any of thatI don't know why you care so much about what they do to the newer games.CEmake doesn't even ahve multi
>>543837748Yeah, I'd actually make it popular again and we can't have that.
>>543837979Halo was most popular when it had a captive console audience and limited competition.Halo will never be massively popular again.The games that matter are available on Xbox and PC anytime, and they play as they should.
>>543838202I will make Halo massively popular.Give me lots of money and people who know how to make video games and I will sell 10 million copies.None shall stand in my way.
>>543838202Halo 2 has some issues in MCC still but I mostly agree
>>543838504Are you going to turn Halo into a mecha series?
>>543838660That'd be based
>>543838660I will let you drive the Cyclopes so yes.I will also put in the Forerunner Tank and have a little tomogatchi thing you can raise as a minigame inbetween multiplayer matches with your medals earned serving as food.Make that 15 million copies.
18 hours until Reveal
sorry, make that 19
THE TIME IS GOING BACK UP AAAAAHHHH
You will never reach the reveal...
In loving memory of all the Anons about to get a stroke just before the announcement.It's probably wasn't worth it, anyway.
The announcement is Lol the No AKA MeltdownMute has been appointed Red's successor and King of /hg/.
>>543843329Red will step down when Halo 5 gets a proper port and he can properly hand off the company
new halo looking great
It's gonna just be H5 getting added to MCC with a proper PC port and a 1,000 tier battlepass that will take years to finish for every armor set and req cert.

Halo will be saved today.

>34....I mean Halo Studios will make a total modern remake of Halo:CE>Most likely also remakes of at least Halo 2 and Halo 3>The Endless from Infinite hints at some sort of time travel element Basically I'm betting that they are trying to create some infinite time loop where you can replay all Halo games where they connect because of some time travel cop out.

>>543873897>>543875251>>543846129I finally got my 2D Metroid (Dread) after directly coming off Metroid Fusion for the GBA. Haven't beaten any of the other games yet besides the NES one. So I'm good to go, got plenty to keep me busy. But I hope you guys enjoy that new Prime game, you've been waiting a while for that, so it better be good.I don't mind waiting another 10, 15, even 20 years for the next 2D Metroid. They don't need to rush it, and I'm not trying to burn out on the franchise. I still have to play Super, Metroid 2, and the other remakes/mods/fangames, so I don't mind the wait and I'm not in a rush to play the Prime games until I've gotten through more of the 2D ones.

>>543892209No need to be rude, Anon.
This is too much build up for a UE5 remake of Halo CE. The remaster is still a great experience and has a lot of mods. Why would I be hyped for this one?
>>543892419
>CEmake trailer>cortana looks as ugly as the weapon in infinite>brutes everywhere>marines can't drive>only 2 player coop, no local coop at all>$80 plus tip
>>543892270I was trying to beProbably one of the most overrated gaming experiences of gen 7
>>543893020I replayed it recently, it was and still is great.
>>543893474I think it's extremely mid and built upon TAS nostalgia with skin deep payoff. Quantity over Quality: The game: Batman edition. Yeah they load the game up to the ceiling with antags but the payoff for each is skin deep. Pretty much whenever you finish their fetchquest you just auto-win against them. I remember the Bane one in particular being insulting since he was already shortchanged in the first game, but at least there he got a boss fight.
>>543892939My predictions for CE trailer:>nostalgia baiting text like “Go back to where it all started” >Cortana is either a direct asset flip of The Weapon or her appearance in Infinite (clothing and very male physique) >sprinting showcased almost immediately>the term “modernised” appears >grapple hook shown off >all weapons look like a downgrade>BR added >areas look brighter>Forerunner aesthetic butchered >The Flood looks less intimidating>brutes have been added>no blood >hexagons>Keyes looks retarded>Miranda added to have a role in the story >rated T
Doomers getting doomy
There's literally nothing wrong with having Brutes in Halo CE.
It's just Dank and Wizards being moody.
more like two irrelevants being irrelevant
AAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>543894336No but I have a feeling they’re going to completely sideline Elites for them because 343…sorry Halo Studios™, doesn’t understand jackshit about this series
>>543894465kek
>>543894556True, but there's an alternate universe where both Brutes and even Drones are present in an Halo CE remake and it's great.
>>543894169This would make a nice bingo card
Just play Halo 2001 if you're going to bitch about every possible change
TRVKE just dropped
He's right you shouldn't just expect microsoft to rape a Halo game. They've NEVER done that before. In fact you need to give them your money and play it before you're allowed to bitch about it.
>>543895101Not a bad idea
>>543895101No because what’s happening is some sort of weird cultural Marxism where all the old, good shit needs to be torn down and replaced by remakes made for the “modern audience” that promises to “correct” the mistakes of the original because all the old, good shit was made by teams of predominantly straight white men and that’s simply blasphemous these days. It all has to go. Straight white men never did anything good. Their creations must be destroyed and replaced by modernity.
>>543895551>what’s happening is some sort of weird cultural Marxism where all the old, good shit needs to be torn down and replaced by remakesHalo 2001 isn't going anywhere. Just go play it.

>>543895982>You're going to buy it anyway you stupid fucks lmaoActually I'll probably pirate it since there's likely no multiplayer
>>543895982it's a remake of my favorite game of all time.Obviously I'm going to buy it. You do what you want with your money. If it sucks then I'll say it sucks.
I'm going to buy it just because it makes someone seethe so much apparently.

There will be a MAJOR Halo Announcement at the Final HCS World Championship in SIX (6) HOURS!What is it? Well, we don't know all the details, outside of the big announcement likely being made at 4pm Eastern Time on Friday October 24th. One thing's for sure though, it's shaping up to be something BIG.Strap in. we're nearly there.
Prediction: the ce leaks were a red herring and the new game is halo 3 anniversary
>>543898259I have to get out of work.Any good excuses?
>>543898307>Prediction: the ce leaks were a red herring and the new game is halo 3 anniversarysome people have theorized that.Other have suggested a new Halo 5 port
>>543898319there are a number of excuses you can always use once at any place of employment- Health Scare in the family- Dog is not doing well/dying- Need to go to an urgent care immidiately- Flight change/early arrival and you're the pickup- Need to go to traffic court- Just say you're not feeling well
>>543898259Ready?Ready doesnt even FUCKING D E S C R I B E IT
>>543898259>>543898821still to date the only worthwhile thing to ever come from EgoTrans
I like the part where he bites the other guy's dick
>>543898319What kind of job is it? If it's an office job you should be able to get out early with the laziest excuses imaginable. If you work labor or retail and have a boss who demands you get your shift covered then you might have to have a friend give you a phone call about a fake emergency
Will we get another craig moment today?
>>543899347100%
>>543898319Getting out of work is never an issue as long as you're a good employee and don't ask off often.The excuse itself is less important than your social credit with the employer.
>>543899572this
>>543889551Reminds me of an ancient articleI was a PS2 kiddo before I learned of Halo's magic
>>543899347Yes. Better question is if they'll play into it like they did Craig
>>543899347...surely not. Surely it will at least be better than Infinite. Just a few more steps forward. Nothing amazing but... steps forward. Well, easy for me to say since I don't have to buy the game to find out.
how many seconds into the Infinite gameplay reveal did it take for Chief to start sprinting?

There will be a MAJOR Halo Announcement at the Final HCS World Championship in FIVE (5) HOURS!What is it?

One thing's for sure though, it's shaping up to be something BIG.Strap in. We're nearly there.
Soon brothers
>>543903002To be fair if it was really something big wouldn't xbox have wanted to show it at big gaming event? TGS was just a month ago, game awards is soon, etc. They have better opportunities to reveal big announcements
>>543903373Game Awards will probably get a followup.This is just a teaser.That being said, Geoff's meme show is a joke.
>>543903502Geoff will Marry Kojima on stage and give themselves an award for it
Halo is the story of the Warthog so I think there are some very important things Halo 1 Remake needs to keep. Most importantly is Warthog jumps. Actually the entire reason this remake should exist is to make dozens of interesting warthog jump scenarios all throughout the campaign. I don't think you should be able to beat the game without doing at least one.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDAUEfga_aYhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aq5ZeYeTeVII also think it's important to keep cutscene deaths because every player should experience one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUampXvdwOY
>>543903502>Geoff's meme show is a joke.Agreed but publishers still like to show off games there since so many people watch it
>>543903958I still want Halo: Battlefront with maps that support a dozen warthogs all zooming and flipping around
>>543904112It's not impossible, I can say that much.
Reminder that Bloober Team made a good game before 343 LMAO
>>543903002aight gamers, how much do you want to bet it's gonna be a CGI reveal trailer that shows no gameplay?
>>543907180There's a war going on
>>543907180this is expected tho
Im so nervous they're just going to fuck it up againI can't take this anymore
There will be a MAJOR Halo Announcement at the Final HCS World Championships in FOUR (4) HOURS!What is it? Well, we don't know all the details, outside of the big announcement likely being made at 4pm Eastern Time on Friday October 24th. One thing's for sure though, it's shaping up to be something BIG.Strap in. We're nearly there.
And there were no leaks. That reinforces my theory that most 'leaks' are planted by the companies themselves to build hype. But Microsoft didn’t want that today.
>>543907998it's microshart, course they're gonna fuck it up
when is this announcement supposed to happen?
>>543909304Man if only we had a poster counting down the hours every hour
>>543894952Done
>>543909639Sprint should have been a free space
>>543907180Too expensive to do just to show it at some Halo esports event.If it was at whatever they call their replacement for E3 or the Geoff show I'd say it could be likely.
If this nigga wasn't at least a gameplay consultant on this remake then it's going to be shit
today they’re going to announce three new Halo games
>>543896948DELETE THIS POST NOW THE REGULARS COMMAND I- AAAIIEEEEEEE
>>543908378still 3 hours??
>>5439093044pm ET on the main halo youtube channel
How many Regulars remain? Do you even know? There would have been 30 in the collage, maybe more. Such a loss. Do you feel it in your heart? Does it leave a hole? Yog was my finest recruit. He understood sacrifice and when one is necessary. I hono(u)r his memory each day. When our enemy rises, we meet their challenge. It is why I created the Hand of Yog. I found the best. The cruelest. The most racist shitposters on /vg/... and taught them how to be better. My Regular Killers are coming for you. It is your time to rise.
why dont I feel any hype about the announcement?
>>543912648Because you aren't getting paid to hype it up.
>>543912648Been burned too many times
>>543912648because halo (and xbox) is dead and irrelevant
>>543912648The Halo community is asleep. Microsoft hasn’t been promoting much of what Xbox is doing lately, and what matters is the content... I just hope the apathy isn’t because they don’t have much faith in this project
Listen, Halo Studios and Microsoft. I'm doing my part. I could be playing MCC on my Linux installation right now, enjoying my freedom and privacy, but I'm not. I'm booted into Windows, about to fire up Infinite, offering you all my precious energy/telemetry you need to charge up your final Spirit Bomb attack, which is the Halo CE Reboot. This is your chance, Halo Studios and Microsoft. Even after over a decade of failure, humiliation, and embarrassment from you guys, I am still here, along with other anons (Yeah, all 2 or 3 of us. Yeah us, yeah we). And don't get it twisted. I'm not here for Halo Studios or Microsoft. I'm here for Halo, which is our common link. I don't like you, and I don't want to send you my energy or telemetry. But we are on the same team. The Halo team. So don't fuck this up. And just to make it absolutely crystal clear, I don't have ANY confidence in you guys at all. I'm not falling for it. It's just going to be another failure, like usual. And yet, I'm still sending you my energy/telemetry simply by the principle of us sharing a single common ancestor, which is Halo. Try not to ruin your last chance. ...Oh, who am I kidding. You already added sprint. It's so over. Joever, if you will. But here's some energy/telemetry any way. Use it wisely. Or don't. At this point I'm not expecting very much from you guys anyway. In fact I'm expecting things to be even lower than my current expectations.
>>543913664>>543913736:(
>>543914089sprint alone wouldn't make me hate it
There will be a MAJOR Halo Announcement at the Final HCS World Championship in THREE (3) HOURS!What is it? Well, we don't know all the details, outside of the big announcement likely being made at 4pm Eastern Time on Friday October 24th on the Halo YouTube Stream. One thing's for sure though, it's shaping up to be something BIG.Strap in. We're nearly there.
3 hours until the trans win once and for all
Not reading all of that
>>543915110I don’t think they’ll stop at just a Halo remake. I still think Halo Wars 3 is coming
The Inevitable is just hours away....
It is pretty crazy how they keep adding sprint to appeal to an audience that isn't buying the game anyway. Halo is for uncs. uncs = unsc. It is fated. Give us what we want.
>>543915110hopefully it's a new halo tv show and a movie!
>>543912648Isn’t it obvious why?
>>543915285>I still think Halo Wars 3 is comingI really can't see the "risk averse Xbox division who is constantly releasing flops anyway" actually greenlighting this
>>543915354It's not like zoomers even care about sprint either, there are so many popular FPS titles without the CoD sprint they keep insisting upon adding
So you beat the Halo demo

>>543914723Yeah, but this is 343 we're talking about. Sprint isn't going to be the only problem, but it's the biggest red flag to spot. And If there's sprint, then there's also gonna be some other bullshit. And so far, they haven't made any games where sprint is actually more fun than without sprint. I play customs in Infinite and turn off sprint. It is actually more fun to remove sprint and triple the base movement speed or even reduce it to Halo 3 levels. Sprint is not a required mechanic, and 343 needs to stop treating it like it's part of the trinity (weapons, grenades, melee). If jump height can be reduced and dual-wielding can be removed, than sprint can also be on the chopping block. It's not special. It's a mechanic someone added, just like everything else. And it can be removed or nerfed to oblivion. They already improved it in Infinite by nerfing it to almost nothing, and they can still take it one more step further if they wanted. Solution: Keep it in for the zoomers who can't live without out it, but make it do literally nothing except change your running animation (in a way that doesn't change the position of the hit boxes) and add a camera bob and speed lines and maybe even a very slight increase the FOV (Let's go with +3 or +5 FOV). It doesn't need to make you go fast, it just needs to give you the feeling of going fast to give the zoomers. You can even fake a slide mechanic that also doesn't do anything except change the first-person animation/post of the player without changing the hit boxes of the 3rd person animation.If RAGE 1 can add aim-down-sights without actually changing the mechanics of aiming (accuracy/handling is the exact same whether you ADS or don't), than so can Microsoft with its legions of AI employees. Literally just ask Bing/Chat GPT to program it for you, Microsoft.
>>543914089nice to see some optimism

>>543916984>change your running animation (in a way that doesn't change the position of the hit boxes)And by the way, this is already in Infinite. Watching someone run vs sprint and trying to shoot them doesn't really force you to aim any differently. Their head is still where you were shooting at before, and their bodies are still in a straight posture as if they were jogging. It's actually pretty good. The animation itself isn't that much different or much faster than just running normal too. Now they just need to nerf the speed bonus to zero and we're good.

>>543916984Sprint doesn't matter as much for campaign (it could if the implementation is very poor). Adding BR would be the bigger flag.

One thing's for sure though, it's shaping up to be something BIG.Strap in. We're nearly there.

OH HO HO DO I HAVE SOMETHING TO REVEAL TO YOU
GOOD MOOOOOOOORNING /hg/! Just wanted to remind you that we’re two hours away from Mendicant Bias (yes, Mendicant Bias from Halo 2 & 3!) getting confirmed in Halo CE Remake! Make sure to save your tears for the upcoming reveal when Mendicant Bias walks into the spotlight!>b-but Mendicant Bias hasn’t been a relevant character since 2004!“Boo hoo nigga!”Hate to disappoint you city slickers, but all the fan-favorites are in! The Endless, Escharum, Atriox... it doesn’t matter if they haven’t made a canonical appearance in two decades as long as they were once part of the Halo universe! And who better represents the soul of Halo than your beloved forerunner ancilla! But feel free to continue your denial. Your tears of disappointment will be all the more sweeter!

Can they just fucking remaster Halo 3 once please, it's been 20 years almost
What if it's an Arbiter game and somehow Tartarus returns to help Arbiter fight Atriox?
>>543927975You don’t want them touching 3 after the way they fumbled the others. A remaster that deprives the game of its soul is not a remaster worth having.
>>543928228Honestly I just want them to get Blur Studios to remake the cutscenes like they did with 2

>>543930383Very fucked, Elites saved the Earth by stopping the threat in Africa and also glassing the flood.
>>543925919wrong
>>543930383Best case scenario: East Africa is quarantined for decades.
Remember when a small rag team of banished crashed the Infinity and the seethe that happened next?
>>543930659With no survivors?
>>543930383It would have gotten to India, at which point it would have gained enough intelligence to commit mass suicide to prevent itself from seeing such horror again

Yeah, sorry, but they're not making a big announcement.There will be something sure, but nothing exciting There is ZERO chance they would lead in with this for anything substantial.This is High School tier.
>>543931560Greater still is the shaking on the Richter scale as you move your ass.

>>543929218kek
>>543933308Delete this. No Halo 3 Remastered. It's not gonna be good. Have we not learned for Combat Evolved Anniversary and Halo 2 Anniversary? I don't want to download 70 GB just to be able to play classic Halo 3.
>arbiterConfirmed DOA if true. No one except lorefag dorks care about this basic "my religion... is le false???" ass character.

We're not gonna make it
>>543934050Shut up you purple hologram slut, we always make it.
>>543934050We'll make it.
>>543933682then get a bigger drive
>>543933537wtf is the deal, why can't they put all the drops on all participating halo channels, do I need to have 3 different streams going? lol
Why is it neutral bomb?
>10 minutes
.
I still find it so amusing that they have so little faith in Halo these days that the announcement is at some fucking tiny esports thing rather than any serious game show.MS got that trauma from the Infinite gameplay reveal.
>>543934238No, I have better things to put on the drive than 343's ugly textures and messed up gun sounds. We don't need to be wasteful with resources. Just don't make Halo 3 Anniversary. Halo 2 Anniversary and HAlo CE Anniversary are a huge waste of resources. They shouldn't have made them. They're E-waste.
THESE ARE THE LAST NINE MINUTES OF /hg/
>>543934510it's to prevent leaksThey control HCS, as opposed to a larger venue

>>543934493THE DOOR
>>543934240>do I need to have 3 different streams going?I guess so, did the same thing for the last drop campaign. These rewards are actually much better than the cum visor or grip tape DMR of the last drop campaign so I'm more compelled to farm them. Still annoying kek
Are we gonna make it....

>>543936993it's OVER
The trailer is up too. I just watched it on the Xbox app. It’s coming to all platforms in 2026.
>>543936993>three brand-new prequel missions featuring the Master Chief and Sgt. Johnson.Holy shit. Contact Harvest.
>>543936993>sprintKINOOOOOOOO
Experience Where the Legend Begins Halo: Campaign Evolved is a faithful yet modernized remake of Halo: Combat Evolved’s campaign. Experience the original story rebuilt with high-definition visuals, updated cinematics, and refined controls, plus three brand-new prequel missions featuring the Master Chief and Sgt. Johnson. A broader arsenal of weapons, vehicles, enemies, and gameplay-modifying “Skulls” – optional modifiers that change combat in fun and challenging ways – add fresh tactics and endless replayability. Play it your way: solo, in 2-player split-screen co-op (console only), or up to 4-player online co-op with full crossplay and cross-progression support. Whether you’re discovering Halo for the first time or returning to the ring after 25 years, Halo: Campaign Evolved delivers an adventure that feels both timeless and brand new. Discover the Ringworld After crash landing on a mysterious ringworld known as Halo, the Master Chief is tasked with helping the remaining humans survive against overwhelming Covenant forces. Alongside his AI companion Cortana, he uncovers Halo’s dark secrets and fights to avert the annihilation of all life in the galaxy. Key Features The Complete Campaign, Rebuilt Battle through the original missions, newly rebuilt with enhanced level design, updated cinematics, and improved wayfinding, refined to keep the pace moving without losing the wonder, tension, or heroism of the original. Cinematics and Audio Overhauled Iconic vistas, alien architecture, and sci-fi wonders are reborn with all-new visuals, cinematics, and animations.
But I already played this game forever ago, why would I play it again?
>Halo: Campaign Evolved leave it to Michaelsoft to make it confusing when you have to differentiate between the new and the original. now when you talk about CE, people will ask you “which CE?” like when they announced the xbox one and you had to start calling the first console “original xbox”
>>543936993>$70 for the third Halo 1 release, only this time no multiplayer. Obviously targeting PS5 users and they will eat it up. Pic related, PS5 users.
>>543937995People refer Halo CE as Halo 1 forever ago. Try to keep up zoomoid.
>>543937995Halo CE is now Halo CombHalo Remake is now Halo Camp
Wonder if they will also bring MCC or Infinite to PS5 soon Seems a bit odd to bring Halo to PlayStation for the first time, but limited to a campaign, no PvP or live service to try and hook them on
What was the reaction to Halo CEA like in 2011?

>>543944043Muted. There was some novelty in the remade graphics and how you could switch back and forth with the original with a button press, but no one was super impressed. It came out after 3 and ODST and Reach but looked worse than them or lazily reused assets from them. And there was disappointment at how there was no proper Live-enabled CE multiplayer (which at the time hadn't been done on a console yet), instead including a handful of Reach maps.
SPV3 > CE > Campaign Evolved
>>543945149ruby's rebalanced CE is the best version of CE i have played
>>543945149
>>543946007Should brutes be added to Campaign Evolved?
>>543946007It's cool but is it really still CE at that point? It's like a whole different game set in similar environments
>>543946278It's basically CE's engine with Reach and Halo 4 mechanics
was killing this franchise part of your plan?
