Im currently playing through all the Halo games for the first timeI have finished Reach and CE and am playing CE nowI gotta say so far Halo 2 combat is my favoriteDual wielding is funThe sniper enemy is a double edged swordOn one hand they are annoyingOn the other hand, they drop such a good weapon to kill Elites with I forgive them for sniping me
343 will pay for ordering the games chronologically instead of by release.
>>562056958Duel wielding is a meme shit and it also caused some guns to be weaker than they should have been.
>>562057862you just know
humans being frontrunners was set up so well I cannot believe 343 fumbled the bag
>>562058025Counterpoint, it's fucking cool. And now that no one cares about lame ass Halo PVP we can hopefully return to dual wield, and have it be full strength instead of an arbitrary damage nerf.

she's green for an amazing reason
I told you: it's enough.
GOOD MORNING MINTO
lmao
>>562066309But seriously, why did she turn green in the Control Room? I think that's the only instance of it, if I remember correctly.
>>562069387You were hanging out with a new bro instead of her. She was green with envy.
>>562065684What a nice ass.
>>562070779hehShe turns green at the end of the Assault on the Control Room tho, so before 343 guilty spark.I initially assumed also that she turns green due to anger, but she shifts color before you run off to the swamp.

>>562076858needler was dogshit until halo 3, retard
>>562076897EXACTLY MY POINT YOU DOUBLE RETARD
>>562076953that's not your point at all. you'd have to move the goalposts to the other side of the galaxy for that to be true. why would dual wielding have made it worse if it was already shit? you need to stop peddling 20 year old midwit dumbassery and think for one fucking second.
>>562077207Because they make it weaker than it should it for single hand use, because it's muh dual wielding weapon.
>>562077483Until you define what an acceptable weapon is and admit you're abandoning your position, I'm not replying to you. You are a weaselly bitch.
>>562077673Acceptable weapon is one that feels good to use for me in singleplayer and also no meme duel wielding shit.

>>562100104 something sad yet unusual in halo (outside of odst) which makes it remarkable
WHO SAID THAT
>>562098646not him but 3 already did that
>>562098646It was an excellent game. I think a big factor around that time contributing to Halo no longer being considered the best console FPS was the rise of COD. COD was on PS3 and Xbox 360 which gave it a bigger player base. I knew people who liked Halo on the OG Xbox, but when COD Modern Warfare came out, they became interested in that instead.People who whine with things like "Reach was too different from 'classic Halo'" are idiots. Look at how COD has massively changed from its WW2 origins, yet is still very popular. Look at the modern Doom games being very different to the old 90s games, yet succeeding because of the enjoyable gameplay. Look at modern GTA games being very different from the original top-down GTA games, yet modern GTA games are incredibly popular.
Halo was on the way out in 2009, let alone 2010 post-Modern Warfare 2.Most of the current Halo fandom doesn't know due to either being too young, or too much of an antisocial loser back then but Call of Duty completely dominated and won the gamer dudebro audience (which btw was 95% of the Halo audience as much as people like to be in denial about that), and Halo started to be seen as that "kiddy game where you shoot cartoon aliens with toy guns".Reach could have been a 10/10 game that came with blowjobs on demand and it wouldn't have mattered. Golden age of Call of Duty was then.
>>562100837>>562100970the fuck?cod was bigger by having 1 multiplayer game every year vs halo's 1 multiplayer game every 3 yearsreach was shit, people didn't like the frankenstein gameplay and preferred the game it was haphazardly aping that didn't change in any meaningful way since 2006your cope is that>there's le nothing bungie could le do because le codpassive faggoty bitch ass faggot
>>562100970I think there is truth to this. Maybe normies are more attracted to military shooters set in the near-present than they are to sci-fi shooters. Look at how the Metroid Prime games were critically acclaimed but they didn't sell many units. Also look at how Counter Strike and PUBG are higher on the Steam charts than sci-fi shooters are.
>>562102030fortniterobloxkys
So much dishonesty ITT since ....... banned typing in the cord
>>562101445>there's le nothing bungie could le do because le codThere legit wasn't though. I'm half convinced Halo had a captive audience because all I remember up until Call of Duty was "if you want to play a shooter on Xbox, you played Halo" and as soon as that wasn't true it was fucking over.And if you want my opinion on Reach, Bungie shit themselves at not being #1, twisted Halo's art into being gritty milslop, made utterly moronic gameplay choices (how they identified 3's BR as being a problem then came up with the DMR as solution is truly beyond me) and mortally wounded the franchise.
You are fools to think Gaylo Studios will release a game while there's a war.

FOUR MINUTES.... Four minutes is all I can spare to play with you.
OOOH now I remember. That was me actually. I am the same guy who came up with terminator posting and memed people into playing resistance. Total forcedfag termination.
You should meme people into playing Sea Power: Naval Combat in the Missile Age
>>562120275Good. As it should be
>>562124595I'm not the same guy that plays that game. I have no interest in strategy games.

>>562127403Thinking about it, I don't think I do much sucking outside the bedroom. I gave up on getting bone marrow out of chicken bones years ago. I don't eat candy anymore. I feel weary all of a sudden.
Can't suck at halo because i don't play it anymore
>>562081457>>562096567>hoverboardMaybe it's the Tony Hawk's webms from /hg/ but the thought of unlocking a hoverboard and doing tricks after the initial playthrough (so people get the intended first experience) is kinda fun. Just thinking back to many other games in the past that'd let players unlock crazy things for subsequent runs. It's probably nothing like I'm thinking, huh?
Bunny Gang will be playing Campaign Evolved.
>>562102030>Maybe normies are more attracted to military shooters set in the near-presentThere's a familiarity factor that's advantageous even if it can't single-handedly carry a gameGame mechanics and platform availability matter as well like how Crysis Wars had the near future military advantage but not many people could actually run it on PCMeanwhile Crysis 2 was far more available but I personally cite it as an example of how a shooter with too much speed/shielding/protective abilities just don't capture as much of an audience (5 was in a similar boat)CoD on the other hand once it was high enough quality in its various areas was something far easier to pick up and kick back with since getting kills required just a shot or a few in the right place with most of the arsenalIt's just a world of difference compared to chewing through energy shields and maximum armor (which recharge automatically unlike Apex) in Halo or CrysisBasically it made sense that something like CoD (and even BF though people like pure PvP more than PvP with vehicles even in Halo) would take the top spot should it be high enough qualityIt's just a difference in the game design itself and that's all the more reason to let Halo be Halo and if new mechanics are added it's because they make sense for Halo instead of twisting it with the intent of trying to have similar appealIt's even more tragic that 343-era was the way it was considering how many games Microsoft put out that were a success while being quite different from Halo which included shooters such as GearsWill be interesting to see if Pierre and whoever is in charge of gameplay finally realize there is a way to add speed to Halo in a way that's more fitting than "gun down move forward faster" or an array of spastic thrusters
>>562131810Didn’t read
Imagine, if you will, an alternate reality in which I did read all of that.
>>562103019>howA lot of the strangeness with Reach is because leadership had the company split into teams for ODST, Reach and Destiny development. Marcus went from art director to creative director. Someone else took over for Jaime on gameplay design while he was tasked with focusing on Destiny mainly. He's said many additions to Reach were things he'd said no to over the years. Not sure if Marcus really thought permitting those changes was for the best or just went "Why not? It's a spin-off and 3 is still running strong.", but even he doesn't think Reach's gameplay aged better than non-ability games. It would've been better to have a lot of the new additions be present on the side rather than be center stage, but here again the team working on Reach probably figured they could mess around more in a spin-off, as Bungie opted to not do their version of Halo 4. Apparently their plans were grand enough that they'd need 3 games to tell the tale of what happened after the battle at the Ark. With all the feedback Reach got, it was definitely easy to do the right thing for something as big as Halo 4 but people just did not apply that feedback properly unfortunately. The bright side is, it can always happen in the future.

>>562103019>how they identified 3's BR as being a problem then came up with the DMR as solution is truly beyond me)There's a loud section of the fanbase that whinged about the BR on Bungie.net, probably the same people that now cry about the other precision weapons starts like CE Magnum and HR DMR.There was also a lot of people that complained about the accuracy of a burst too.>>562146356That's annoying. On Project Cartographer its fine.
>>562103019>"if you want to play a shooter on Xbox, you played Halo" and as soon as that wasn't true it was fucking over.It really wasn't over. Halo was still popular, it just wasn't THE game anymore on Xbox. That ship sailed in 2008 and never looked back.Even blaming it all on Halo 4 would be incorrect, because MCC at launch demonstrated that there were still a lot of people willing to come back, but that game had a historically abysmal launch. Halo 5 was probably the last straw.
Man I tried to play CE on Legendary and I'm not having fun at all. Enemies recharge their shields faster than I can kill them and MY shield is gone in an instant.Am I shitter for preferring Heroic? Everyone says "Legendary or nothing" and makes me feel bad to suck at it.
>>562150092>Even blaming it all on Halo 4 would be incorrectYeah, it was a decade-long grinding down of the reputation of the series... even nearly 10 years after 4 they managed to drum up excitement for Infinite but dropped the ball. People, even leadership at Microsoft who don't have their heads on right, recognize Halo has its own niche and potential. Properly tapping into it just keeps playing second fiddle to trying to be trendy and as people point out by time a game launches the trend is no longer fresh.
>>562152620its turbo-gay but your supposed to exploit the plasma pistol and its charge shot. one shot the shield, swap to murder-gun
>>562153023Yeah I'm doing that but I'm not good enough to actually do it right and I'm still getting a barrage of shots while doing it specially while being surrounded by elites. I've already spent like an hour on the first beacon of the second mission and I got humbled hard. Like really, I'm not having fun with Legendary. It's feeling more like a chore that I'll be glad it's done.
>>562152620you can check the completion rates per difficult iirccan't remember which games were made with the idea that heroic is the closest thing to how things feel in-universeanyway heroic is fine and legendary will usually be a breeze or more importantly fun to people who are well versed in the levels alreadyhad a blast doing my first legendary run and having to learn no-scope gold elites consistently in truth and reconciliation but it didn't make heroic stop being funhelpful tips on either difficulty:- tap-firing the AR at a reasonable rate actually leads to damage that adds up and saves on pistol ammo which surprised me- and of course there's always the plasma pistol overcharge for stripping shieldsif the latter suddenly makes things too easy for you you can always chip away at shields with the regular fire or plasma rifle like I did (AR too)in the end just play however is fun for you at your current skill level and you can always engage in greater challenge if need be some other time
>>562153213fuckin casual, i finished it as a 14 year old kid, get gud scrubalso i tried it again as a 30+ man and got filtered so i dont know what to tell you
>>56215336134 here and yeah, Legendary filtered me super hard. Honestly if it's to enjoy the story I will go with Heroic, no shame.
>>562153261>- tap-firing the ARyou can stagger grunts this way, to save ammo. just keep bipping them with a single shot so they stumble and do the pain animation, so you can close the distance and melee. this makes silent cartographer fun because a lot of the rooms, when you first enter, the grunts are all asleep. you can make it pretty far/deep into them killing them silently and when you get spotted just spray everone real quick to stagger them and bail the fuck outta there
>>562153213NTA but are you waiting for the reticle to turn red so the charged shot (press and hold) locks on and homes in on the enemy to a degree after firing? Even if you are, getting used to the timing of things, the arc and so on can be tricky, especially if someone isn't regularly playing FPS games. Better to have fun with the game than slog through something just for the sake of it.
>>562153491>readers added context:>this is very shameful
>>562153547will try to keep that in mind for a future run never really noticed that since I'd tend to headshot them or just keep pushing forwardin campaign I think I'm the kind of player who takes their time and uses physical cover an unusual amount whereas most players would find being that methodical boringdefinitely is more of a thrill to be causing a ruckus and then bailing out to come back when things are calm or just approach from another direction

The first piece of content produced for the standalone Halo series was Iris, an ARG written by Frankie.Halo 1 and Halo 2 are part of the Bungie combined franchise/mythos. Halo 3 can kind of be considered part of that but is also the first game in the true standalone Halo franchise.Halo Campaign Evolved is the standalone Halo franchise's Halo 1.Halo is the Bungie franchise/mythos version of Halo 1.
The only thing I want to read that's written by frankie is a suicide note
>>562178314I disagree.
>>562178743Hate it all you want. Frankie was the father of Halo as a standalone series.
>>562178314>the true standalone Halo franchiseDefine this.
>>562182625Halo was originally part of Bungie's overarching mythos where the games are all connected and share a handful of storytelling conventions. During Halo 3's development Bungie negotiated their out with Microsoft and part of that was giving Halo to Microsoft. This event splits Halo away from Bungie's mythos and creates a standalone Halo franchise, whereas before it was closer to a sub-series.
