Halo series has reached 77 million copies sold in Lifetime Sales. This means that Halo 5 has sold 12 million copies since its release in 2015. That means

Halo: Combat Evolved sold more than 6 million copies
Halo 2 sold more than 8 million copies
Halo 3 sold more than 14.5 million copies
Halo 4 sold 13 million copies
Halo 5: Guardians sold 12 million copies

Halo 3: ODST sold 5 million copies (lol)
Halo: Reach sold 7 million copies (lol)
>Halo is so dead, right guys?

halo 5 sold more than the first 2 halos? yikes

MCC FOR PC IS COMING!

>Halo 4 sold 13 million copies
>Halo 5: Guardians sold 12 million copies
nice fake numbers

ok, Yea Forums. Rank the games.

This, halo 4 and 5 are trash

Not your personal army

Overall?
3 > 2 > ODST > 1 > Reach > 5 > 4

Halo was sitting at 60 million copies sold in 2014 the only Halo game to be released at that time before MCC's release was Halo 4. Halo CEA hit 3 million but stopped there, Reach never made it passed 7 million and ODST never made it passed 5 million. Halo Wars only sold 2 million and the phone games flopped. Halo 4 was reported of selling very well in its first year outselling Halo 3 in its first year so the 13 million sold is very believable.

I'm pretty sure the majority of those 12 million sales are MCC

I doubt the 4 numbers considering xbone's lower sales but I will still honor the fact that it could get close to it due to riding from 3's popularity. No way in hell 5 sold nearly that much

Reach was that bad, and people really wanted Master Chief back. It sold a lot initially, then almost immediately fell off all at once.

Gaming was still "for nerds" in the early 2000s

halo 5 isn't in the mcc

Also, forgot to mention Halo 5, it was already stated that Halo 5 sold more than 10 million copies in 2017 and last year it was the highest selling Xbox One exclusive.

No way Halo 4 outsold Halo 3. Halo 3 was the killer app of the 360. I and plenty other people I know bought the 360 for it specifically.

This, I was one of the guys shitting on Reach because of this fact and other reasons, I really hated Reach that much.

SeeMCC sold 5 million.

In both of their first years. Halo 3 sold 8 million copies in 2008, Halo 4 sold more than that in 2013.

I had hope for Halo 4 after getting so many "this friend is now playing Halo 4" popups after the midnight launch. The active roster in Reach was barren in comparison.

god i can't fucking wait for the pc mcc. it's gonna be so good bros.

all I want is for halo to make a comeback boys
Is that too much to ask

infinite will be here soon sweetie :^)

It will my friend, it will.

Do you want the online to be full of more retards and kids?

It will my friend, it will.

>it was already stated that Halo 5 sold more than 10 million copies in 2017
source?

>highest selling Xbox One exclusive.
not saying much considering there was fuck all

cope for what? There's no source for those figures. It doesn't take a genius to realize halo 5 doesn't even hit close to those numbers

Nice

yeah why not, that's the point of public matchmaking. If I wanted to get sweaty I'd go into ranked or host a lobby

thank you for those links, neither of those indicate sales figures for halo 5. Actually, hold on, lets take a close look here. Star wars battlefront sold more than halo 5 ON XBOX ALONE, and that sold 14 million overall (venturebeat.com/2016/05/10/star-wars-battlefront-has-sold-over-14-million-copies/), a multiplatform game that has most of its sales on PS4 and some on PC as well. There's no way Halo 5 got even close to 12 million sales using logic. So, good job in proving yourself wrong. Shill more, 343tard

Halofags BTFO

Try harder, Frank. 343i-era Halo is a disaster.

not that this was necessary BTW, any moron knows Halo 5's numbers in OP are a joke. 4 is way off too, probably 9 million at best (riding off halo 3 but xbone has lower sales)

I'm torn. On one side, it may be fun to be back to the trash talking and making fun of some kids but on the other side, people barely talk in online days when there are ban systems and party chat so it's not much of a difference. Proximity chat needs to return.

I'm surprised Guardians sold more than 4

the retards make the base of the pyramid, without them your game is just some weird offshoot community where people complain about player count every day

Unlikely if the rumors are true about multiplayer being like Halo 5.

I'm going off lifetime says and one of those is the US NPD so my numbers actually checks off, stay made that ODST and Reach sold like shit and your VGChartz numbers are made-up trash. My point still stands, Halo 5 sold more than 10 million copies by 2017 and is now in the 12 millions putting the series at 77 million copies sold. Stay mad.

The main thing I took away from this is that 343 can't surpass Halo 3.

The MP was hardly an issue in 5, besides fucking clamber and map aesthetics

Halo 4 sold 14 million copies, Halo 5 is a million short.

Sauce? Even then, they're rumors.

Well that's true, Infinite could be the first though.

nobody cares shill

nobody has cared about Halo since 4 flopped so hard

*13 million copies

And sprint, ADS, shitty map design.

I think Infinite could, especially if it releases on Windows 10 as well.
Though the launch title aspect will definitely hurt overall numbers, atleast at first

The map design itself was fine on the disc maps.

Keep seething Reach will never reach Halo 2, 3, 4, or 5's numbers.

>I'm going off lifetime says
so you get an extra 1 or 2 million outside of the US, it doesn't change anything. Almost every game sells through 95% of it's LTD in the first couple of months anyway, with some exceptions.

>stay made that ODST and Reach sold like shit
I don't give a shit

>your VGChartz numbers
I literally used your source you fucking moron

>My point still stands, Halo 5 sold more than 10 million copies by 2017 and is now in the 12 millions putting the series at 77 million copies sold
you have absolutely nothing proving that, and this isn't the first time you've made this claim, I've seen your horseshit in other halo threads 343 pajeet. But keep shilling I'm sure halo 6 will sell well. Not

Attached: 420.jpg (995x933, 87K)

Sprint is okay since it's balanced well, but I do agree on ADS
Map design was fine, even great. I just hate the looks they go for. I need some more natural structures

Rumor on /hg/ said the mp will be more like Halo CE, 3, and 5.

There is no sauce, we literally no nothing about it. Hopefully 343 notices how popular classic halo still is- the fact we’re still having Halo 3 tournaments that are more popular than H5 tournaments should tell them something

Those games are all completely different from one another.

How would that work? Halo 5 easily has the best weapon variety and weapon balance. Halo CE and 3 are both different from each other and 5

Hey, what about Halo Wars?

WOO Eric, you seem to be seething! Get the fuck out this Halo thread, this isn't your console war thread, faggot if you're going to be here you better start talking about Halo and keep that console war shit out of it, pajeet as you like to call it.

Sprint doesn't belong at all. It's pointless and only there to appeal to CoD babies.

I'm guessing they're going for a fusion of classic and modern Halo on the gameplay, what that means for sprint, I don't know.

>eric
what the fuck, am I in a nintendo thread? Fuck off you schizo retard

>Get the fuck out this Halo thread
how about you fuck off 343tard, 4 and 5 ruined halo

It sold more than 2 million copies.

>best balance
>jamming way too many weapons into a game is good
The SMG is utterly worthless. The DMR and BR both existing is fucking retarded and hurts both weapons. Pretty much all promethean weapons look and shoot like shit. 4 and 5 were a mistake.

I disagree. Halo Reach, Halo 4? Yeah garbage
But they've balanced it properly and it feels at home

Stop saying pajeet, I won't call your ass out on the first sight of the word. The moment you say pajeet, you're Eric.

MS pajeet is a site wide thing idiot, it started on /g/. Don't get upset because you get caught

>>>>>>>balanced
youtu.be/u6YdPRyW0DA
I too enjoy restricting actual mobility for "the sensation of speed"

Literally every single weapon is viable in 5 and the SMG will shred an enemy up close faster than any other weapon IIRC, and Promethean weapons are absolutely kickass in them compared to the shit they were in 4. I don't think you've played it.

This and it will sell 20 million copies

It doesn't belong at all. I don't care if it's balanced. It contributes nothing to the game.

I agree that clamber is dumb and is the worst addition to the series, but the sprint? He's complaining that sprinting doesn't allow you to shoot, as if that's a bad thing

I only hear it from Eric, Eric.

Sprinting can absolutely change how you go about combat. It gives you an out. But instead of being a cheat like in Reach and 4, you don't heal. It gives the enemy a potentially easier kill

Basically what the video here says. Locking movement behind animations is fucking garbage. I don't even know why games still do this shit.

Halo 5 multiplayer is garbage

Or you could just take sprint out of the game. I never said it was good in Reach and 4. Stop comparing it to that trash.

He's new here from /r/XboxOne, of course he doesn't know shit.

It is when you stretch the fucking map out so it takes the same amount of time to sprint from one place to another as it did to walk in the older games. Except now you can't aim while moving.

Name something new that you want to see in the next Halo game.

I want the machete as the human counterpart of the Energy Sword.

No one said you said that. I'm just saying that it's actually well implemented, and you not liking it doesn't mean it's a bad change

Played almost two years of it, since December 2015 to like November 2018. The weapon rebalance killed the SMG, there's no point in using it when an AR is better in every way.

Sprint is never well implemented because it makes the game slow. Removing it makes the game better.

Then don't sprint you fucking moron

I hope, it's been sitting on the difficulty screen for 18 years.

Something is wrong with your brain.

I haven't played the game since 2016, but the SMG was fantastic back then. I mean it was actually useful compared to all the weapons in the OT that were actually completely useless dead weight

the only way halo will do well is if it adds a battle royale mode for the kids

If you don't sprint, you can't move from cover to cover effectively since the distance is now based on the sprint movement speed. If you do sprint, you can't look in all directions like you could in the old games.
December 2016*

Nice samefagging, Eric.

Use your thrusters to get to cover. or sprint for a couple seconds and slide

Kids want that then they better ask 343 to make a spin-off game about it instead of forcing it in a Master Chief Halo game.

SMG got nerfed hard. AR became a headshot weapon (yes, really). BR was nerfed at range. DMR has auto-aim that makes you miss at close range. Storm Rifle got nerfed hard. Made firefight easier but just made the game less fun. Also, in 343 fashion, they fucked up the initial implementation and made these rebalanced weapons as new entities, meaning you could pick up an old-style BR on a map and it would behave differently to a BR you spawned with in Warzone.

Oh yeah thrusters exist as well. Get rid of that too.

343tards on suicide watch

So do things that take away my ability to aim 360, when I didn't have to do that at all in 2 or 3 to traverse the same area?

I want a gamemode like the old Battlefront games, where you fight for control of capture points against with a large number of AI bots. Also, pilotable scarabs.

But I already BTFO Eric on this.

Is this Halo 2 or 3? I must have missed that part.
You can also still aim and shoot while using thrusters

But lets be real, the master chief story doesn't matter after 5

*sales
*mad

Don’t make the ar sound worse than it is, the ar only gives a slight damage bonus and it’s not anywhere near a instant kill like other traditional headshot weapons.
It’s probably the best the ar has ever been in a halo game.

there's always a brighter future

Attached: suicide.png (738x208, 9K)

It does, it always had, 343 just ignored it like retards with 5.

Kill yourself already, shill.

Don't call that number man, I know you were wrong but you don't have to kill yourself over it, you should see a doctor to help you get through your problems.

You're just using your phone, Eric.

this schizo retard is in every halo thread, he unironically thinks there's only one guy who hates 343 halo games. He's also deluded himself into believing halo 4/5 sold over 10 million copies. He's up there with barneyfag in terms of severe mental illness

The AR isn't bad at all, it's great, but it killed my wife, the SMG. Holographic sight was kino, you could just charge and spray and your target would stop existing.

Ur mum is garbage

Thrusters are completely worthless unless you're in the air, they have literally never saved me from anything other than a platforming mistake.

I don't believe Halo 4 and 5 sold over 10 million copies, I know. The main reason I went out of my way to do all of that research was to shut ODST and Reach babbies up on using VGChartz as a source thus explaining why non-Chief games get shit on all the time. Sorry if this upsets you, 5-year old. Also, where the hell you're getting the only one guy hates 343 Halo games at? Most if not all of Yea Forums and /hg/ hates Halo 4 and 5 while the community hates parts of them and are very split with them.

do you seriously not know what 'pajeet' means? in your time shitting up every halo board that gets posted here, have you not paid attention to any of this websites wider culture? further proof 343retards are braindead morons. take your meds dumbass.
it's actually kind of funny that you can notice him just by the way he types and his argumentative logic. obvious he has some mental derangement.

They're useless despite saving you from having to sprint a couple seconds, which you've said is garbage?
Thrusters are fine, sorry you can't focus on two things at once

CE>2 Multiplayer>3>5 Multiplayer>ODST>Wars/Wars 2>Reach Campaign>2 Campaign>4>Reach Multiplayer

what are the odds that halo infinite is the classic arena shooter halo 1-3 were? that is:

>low ttk
>no classes
>power weapons spawn on maps
>smallish maps
>multiple person vehicles
>(optional) grenades and melee good

Cringe.

Nope, I only come to Yea Forums, I like video games, something you faggots need to learn how to talk about and stick with. I give two shits about your stupid ass culture.

They're useful for momentum cancelling or increasing in the air, on the ground they don't scoot you enough to save you from anything.

Zero. Power weapons will spawn on the map though. I think you could see some of that open world/RPG stuff seep into the MP a little.

But I love Halo been a fan since Combat Evolved.

I agree with you on Yea Forums, Hiro should just nuke this place already, you guys don't talk about shit here anyway. Board supposed be about video game discussion and 90% of the threads are either weebshit talking or active shitposting and offtopic discussions.

then act like

>weebshit talking
this is a website created to discuss japanese anime and video games, people like you should really stick to reddit. It doesn't help that japanese games are smashing western games right now

I am, I just don't like ODST and Reach. Also, you guys are doing a poor job talking about video games. I also like DMC and MH, RE, and more, but you guys also talk about obscured shit all the time too.

OooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

The fact that Infinite's art style seems much more similar to halo 1-3 gives me hope. I can only wish that they keep more than just the aesthetics of the original trilogy.

Think correlation with the industry going down hill is proof the mainstream population of retards always shits up and destroys everything they decide to identify with, for money and attention?

New Master Chief novel is in the works called Halo Oblivion, takes place after Silent Storm.

You are forgetting Halo Wars and whatever other spin offs.

>Halo 5 sold less than 12 mil
ohnonono

Ohyesyesyesyesyes

Halo Wars sold more than 2 millon copies, Halo CEA sold 3 million, and Halo MCC sold 5 million, there is no other spin-off that wasn't an FPS that sold over a million copies so they're not worth mentioning.

It's a load of shit. Halo 4 sold 13 million copies and Halo 5's install base is way to small in comparison to reach those numbers. Xbox One sales were shit compared to Xbox 360.

So subtract that.

Halo 5 sold...

Halo 3

ODST

Halo 2

Reach

Halo CE

Halo 4 (PEAK Cortana though)

Halo 5
This is fact.
