>>563112418What's your 'tana, /hg/?
>>563123689.
Red has abandoned us.
>>563124264AAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>563123689I don't like what Blur Studios did to the cutscenes (and audio) of Halo 2's cinematics, but they created the perfect Tana. Her only issue is that she's not naked, but she's otherwise perfect. This is what I imagine she'd look like irl.

Honestly what is there even to talk about regarding Halo to keep this thread "alive"?Infinite/343i/whatever bad? That's been beaten to death and is just a cyclical discussion.Technical nerd stuff or modding? No one cares besides maybe 2 people here.
Halo
>>563149079Guy #2 here, I don't care about that.
Doesn't help that HS is opaque as dogshit and we have no fucking idea what they are doing, haven't seen anything from the remake since it was first shown off last year, and are back to learning about details from food promo's and leaks.
They're called 343.

If Halo Infinite devs wanted us to go fast, they should have just removed sprint.
Why did playable elites go the way of the dinosaur?
>>563202728>We wanted Halo 4 to tell a 'Spartan Story.'
>>563203159These guys look cool as fuck and I'm tired of pretending they don't.
>>563202728Modders saved Halo.
>>563203606It was honestly cool being able to fight alongside these guys as the Chief. I didn't like the dumb Spartan Ops Spartan IV main characters, but these generic Spartan IV allies in the campaign were cool. They acted like proper Spartans.

okay are we going to keep forcing this thread? its getting rather tiring and depressing at this point.
>>563203606until you look closely

get a load of this retard*points at poster above*
>>563203606It's sort of a "what is there is cool but there's not enough." A lot of H4 sets need more total armor coverage and less glaring gaps in the silhouette. Warrior was much better about all that which is almost certainly why 343 used it for most S-IVs in pre-release media.
now that the toxotranny is gone, we can discuss halo

Soon... you will be food.

>>563149079The "Xxx_3vil_spartanZ_xxX" (Janissaries) are probably the only thing that could potentially make the new game interesting.

>>563265228I do wish halo had a more feminine touch (like at least more female characters)but that might break the franchise's structure which already is fragile these days
>>563259501>this cave is not a natural formationthat line there actually made me laugh
>>563259092>forza generalWith FM dead who cares. Horizon's audience are actually 12 or mentally 12 year olds that go "DUDE A BUGATTI WOW!!!!!". I've recently seen a bunch of people claim that it's good Tokyo has barely any traffic because they don't want to drive around other cars and just want to go fast.
>>563270428I spent a lot of time playing FM4 and I liked it. Horizon never appealed to me. I like driving games which are more realistic, even if FM4 isn't completely realistic.
Important question: will Campaign Evolved be good or shit?
Feeling pretty good with how these came out :)
>>563274037looking good senpai
>>563273735Why ask questions you already know the answer to?
>>563274836Well if I had to answer the question, my guess would be that it might turn out to be about a 6/10 or a 7/10. But who knows. I guess we can't say until we've seen the final product. It could turn out to be good fun, or it could turn out to be buggy and shit.
>>563273618I was unironically hyped for FM2023 because yeah, I like """realistic""" racing/driving games (I don't have the space and autism required to get into sim racing) and I spent a lot of time online in FM2, 3 and 4 back in the 360 days.What I got was Infinite 2.0.>built from the ground up
>>563268023I wish Halo had a more masculine touch (no homo)
>>563258668tiny gun
>>563202638pc boomers think this gameplay be fire
>>563281725It's fine, but it's not Halo.
>>563202638>>563281725>>563282071>It's fine, but it's not Halo.Yet "classic Halo" fans seem to have insisted for years that Halo is an arena shooter, which is what that webm basically depicts
>>563284023Ah yes, arena shooters are all exactly the same.
>>563281725I wouldn't oppose it as a mode on the side going forward. Part of Halo's charm is the offering of wild variety modes that ignore certain fundamentals.>>563284023I have never used that term as I did not play Doom or Quake multiplayer. There will always be vocal minorities to any "side" who can skew your perception of a topic.
>>563202638this is hella fire cuh
>>563274037Classic Halo.
>>563274037The blue one is just about perfect with respect to style differences. I like it most when the Elite undersuit has the illusion of just being their skin. It's the impression I got from the first 3 games most of the time, though, if you really paid attention to certain parts you could see a noticeable cut that made it clear it was an undersuit. A lot of modern takes on Elites also make them seem a bit too skinny like they're not filling out the armor so well.
>>563286960There is, thankfully, a noticeable cut that elaborates the dino skin.
>>563247779No jobbers!
>>563274037A little less detail on the undersuit would be an improvement. Give more focus on the armor itself rather than those zesty love handles. The originals had a noise vs reflection contrast. Noisy flesh under deeply shiny almost crystalline armor.
>>563284475>Ah yes, arena shooters are all exactly the same.Let's see:>An arena shooter is a subgenre of shooter games>These games emphasize fast-paced movement in enclosed map designs that foster engagement between players.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arena_shooter>the subgenre would finally explode (and the e-Sports scene blossom as a consequence) with the advent of two games released with two days of difference that would create the (then) biggest videogame feud for quite some time: Epic Games's Unreal Tournament and id Software's Quake III Arena, released in 1999https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ArenaShooter>An arena shooter is a first or third-person game where most combat encounters occur in a small-medium-sized map or arena. Arena shooters tend to rely on fast-paced movement, weapon pickups, intense battles with vertical movement, and high skill ceilings.https://plarium.com/en/glossary/arena-shooter/Notice that all three of those links mention Doom, Quake, and Unreal Tournament, but none of the links mention Halo. Because Halo wasn't considered an arena shooter. Yet I have seen so-called "fans" of so-called "classic Halo" on 4chan claim that Halo was always an arena shooter.>>563284845>There will always be vocal minorities to any "side" who can skew your perception of a topic.Obviously not everybody claims that Halo is an arena shooter but some people seem to. Pic related. Source: https://arch.b4k.dev/vg/thread/561368325/#561387990
the end... it's here
>>563292240>some people saydoesn't matter. words have meaning. arena shooter is what halo is. even if retards say it isn't. it's not a quake clone. but still remains an arena shooter. your logic being applied universally would say that a game isn't a multiplayer game if it's online because the original multiplayer games were all local. i know you're not that retarded, you're just making a bizarre exception from years of reddit and public school programming a layer of cognitive dissonance into you.
it's over... let it end (again)

>>563295771incorrect
>>563299628Must be bugged then. Has been on page 1 for a while.
>>563274037This is better than what most can draw up.
>>563293195I guess COD has to be an arena shooter then because its multiplayer maps are enclosed spaces and thus arenas (multiplayer maps were enclosed when I last played COD games around the year 2010). This is a consequence of your logic.
This is getting out of hand.

>>563124548>>563123689I don't understand the insistence with trying to Halo 3-ify Cortana. Don't get me wrong, Halo 3 Cortana looks great, but CE and 2 both have unique designs. The redesign looked awful in Halo CEA (like everything else), and Halo 2 had a really good standout design that I wish they would've stayed with.
2tana > CEtana > Legends-tana > H2Atana (Cutscenes) > 3tana > 4tana > Weapon > 5tana > Infinitana > H2Atana (Gameplay) > Paramountana S1 > Paramountana S2CEA and Reach recycle 3tana's model and don't count.
>>563365268kawaii
Doubt there's going to be any changes but I kinda hoped they would let the Flood use vehicles across the entirety of the trilogy remakes. In CE they couldn't use them, Halo 2 had them capable of driving only land vehicles they spawned on and they could only board to melee in Halo 3.

there is a magic feeling to halo: combat evolved. when you exit the lofepod and look up at the ring, you feel a since of wonder and mystery. You truly are somewhere alien. Halo: combat Evolved truly puts you in the shoes of master chief on an alien ring called halo. Whether it's storming beach or Infiltrating a swamp, you truly are in for an amazing experience. The magic feeling of halo: combat evolved is one of pure wonder and mystery. Who are the forerunners? And why did they build the ring? These are questions you ask yourself as you journey across the ring. This grand feeling of adventure keeps you on your toes and you never know what is around the corner. It is truly a magic experience to play Halo for the first time, exiting the lifepod, and looking up at the ring. You just know you will be a n for an epic adventure. This magical feeling truly captures the spirit of halo: combat evolved

Can someone name one game series that is one connected and continuous story between sequels that has lasted since at least 2001 and is still going? I'm not talking about shit like Zelda or Final Fantasy or whatever where the series is very loosely connected. I mean stuff like Metal Gear Solid, which had its last mainline game in 2015. You just can't keep the story going in those types of series without it falling off. Halo's story was cooked after Halo 3, there was no where to go and the covenant and to be shoehorned back. Halo needs to go to episodic stories in the universe, instead of milking master chief to death
>>563386689>*lays the big REmeat on the halosissy's forehead*Seven minutes. Seven minutes is all I can spare to grizzle you.
>>563387212Massive stretch 2 has basically nothing to do with 1 from a story perspective outside of the outbreak. 4 is 90% disconnected. 5 and 6 are memes. 7 is basically a reboot with a totally different cast. Haven't played 8 or 9 though. But basically it's not even trying to tell one cohesive story, which is why it doesn't become worn out. It's closer than something like Zelda, but not on the level of the mainline halo games
>stretching that hard to call something a stretchHalo is neither cohesive nor special.
>>563388975Halo is special TO ME!
>>563388975The series is much more continuous than RE, that's just a fact. I'm saying that's a bad thing for the health of the series, and part of the reason it's in the mess it's in
>>563387447>2 has basically nothing to do with 1 from a story perspective outside of the outbreak. 4 is 90% disconnected. 5 and 6 are memes.God that is so close to just describing Halo too lmao. Replace "outbreak" with "ring being destroyed" and it's near 1:1.
Why is Bungie Halo story so shallow compared to what they did with Marathon?Did Infinity turn them off doing anything complicated or was it because the games were always thrown together in the last minute so story and lore was the least of their concerns?
>>563389426halo 2 directly continues chiefs story, and follows up what happens to the covenant. That's much more direct than following two brand new characters while not having chris and jill on the game at all
Halo's story was always nonsense held together by duct tape and dreams. You take away book context and you're left with nothing but Hype Moments & Aura.
>>563390008The first 3 games have a pretty well told story that kind of falls off in H3, and they require zero books to be enjoyable. The story works for what they were going for. My whole point is that Microsoft keep beating a dead horse with master chief, when they should come up with interesting one offs like ODST
>>563390008>when your war game about a religious faction has absolutely nothing to say except "idk blind obedience bad i guess?"
>>563390409the prophets knowing genociding the descendants of the forerunners is pretty cool. But yeah most of the the plot is either world building set up for the action
I still maintain that a bunch of Halo 2 was a narrative mistake. Making the Covenant "they're just like us!" was lame and holy shit the Gravemind lmao.Making the Flood being lead by a giant plant snake that physically talks to you is really silly.
Halo will be played.
CE's story was so last minute and slapped together that half the missions are connected by "uhhh idk he teleports"
please stop being mean to Halo
>>563304103Why do you use the word consequence as if this is a bad thing?
