For at least 3 to 5 heard, I would ALWAYS see risk of rain threads, and no one complained about it, same with fate and granblue and threads about big boobies guarantee for 300 reply image.

>unironically posting watermarked social media memes here

halobabs not even trying to hide their zoomer status

Can someone spoonfeed me this one?

Halo, at least on Yea Forums, still has the lingering stigma of being babby's first shooter despite being nearly two decades old. And, of course, it's the face of Xbox so it's naturally going to attract console war retards. Also, there's always been at least a couple of Halo threads on the board at any time since the MCC PC rumors started to ramp up, I imagine a few idiots who don't know how to use filters are getting tired of seeing them.

I've lost I don't know how many matches in the MCC and Halo 5 due to bad teammates. I can't take it any more. I was at my breaking point 4 hours ago and I had to shut it off. I can't believe people suck so bad then just come on to Halo like they're going to dominate like it's COD or something. I really want these people to fuck off. Anything other than lone wolves in Halo 3 or ffa in Halo 5 is simply unplayable.

I think it's a new meme.

Starts out like Silent Cartographer but then quickly escalates, involves several different vehicle sections, large-scale sandbox areas, and capped off with a fight against TWO FUCKING SCARABS. Not to mention the music which elevates that entire set of missions. It feels like a grand finale

I was hoping most of the game would be like the city map. Instead I get constant flashbacks to stuff like Halo 3. I like 3, but if I wanted to play 3 style stuff, I'd play 3.

winter one.

i still have the disk and box, lost the manual years ago though.
Until like 2012 it had playable online with 600+ players on daily.
same with custom edition, shit was cash.

Were there two scarabs or only one in whichever level was the desert segment. It's been a long time.

there was one in the desert level, then two in the winter one.

Stay away from DN, the Lasky admin is salty as fuck and will mute you to win an argument

They're all South Americans anyway. I'm literally the only person still playing who speaks English. The Venezuela blackout was probably a significant hit to CE player count.

The admins were all English speakers actually, trying to corral a load of Spanish speakers with one guy (on Lasky's team) blatantly wall hacking. But apparently they'd rather permanently mute me for defending myself against a false hack claim than take care of an actual cheater.
Good server but terrible admins. Yes I'm mad.

I really totally missed the halo franchise growing up, i remember playing parts of the first halo game because it came with my xbox and then later at some point a few chapters of reach from somebody else's console i borrowed.

Uprising made up for the rest.

originally, halo 3 was supposed to have friendly grunts and hunters fighting with you at some points, but players couldnt tell the good ones from the enemy ones and there wasnt enough time left in the development process to change the models to be more distinct between the two, so it was forced to be cut.

Be glad he hasn't appeared at this point. You saw what 343 did to Blue Team

fair enough.

Guys, I'm so happy. I'm so fucking happy. One stupid fucking video game announcement shouldn't make me this happy, but fuck. It's Halo. It's ALL the (good) Halos. On my PC. My friends I've grown apart from, those who play on different systems, everyone is getting back together to pick this up. I'll be able to do the wonderful campaigns again, fuck around in Forge, run customs, play Invasion, get pissed off at Armor Lock... it's all back. My adolescence is back.

So will there be Yea Forums co-op and lobbies when it finally comes out?

I'm pretty sure there is a Yea Forums group already. Someone linked to it a few threads back.

El Dewrito doesn't need to die, the only reason people are saying this is because they kept changintg it to be more and more like 3

Instead of trying to be Halo 3, El Dewrito should do it's own thing. Try to be an ideal mix of both classic and nu halo elements, with it's own balancing, sandbox, etc

What exactly is "El Dewrito"?

Keep fagging newly, newfag.

Damn, that's a good question. If only there were some website in which one could enter such a query and get an answer. Really a shame something like that doesn't exist.

realistically, when would they drop MCC onto steam?

reach was kino

I was hoping that reach would be released this month, but they're wording it like it's going to be released LATE 2019.

"Halo: Reach is on its way to Halo: The Master Chief collection later this year!"

So expect possibly September/October.

I hope im wrong i really want it now damnit

if it every truly happens that all games are released separately, which one should i get first if i prioritize playerbase first before story or nostalgia

im okay with playing a bad or mediocre game with a big playerbase than a supposed good one with empty lobbies

Anyone ever read Halo: Helljumper? the ODST comic? was it good? The only Halo comic i read was the anthology one that came out after 3 with stories from famous people like Moebius

The specs would depend on the individual game. A toaster should be able to run CE. I doubt you would need something that great to run 2 & 3 either. Reach was a 360 game so that shouldn't be to bad either.

Hard to say, 2 and 3 are the two most fondly remembered, but if Reach releases first it might as well eat up a large chunk of the multiplayer population. 2's remaster is the best looking of them all so it might end up being the most populated, although the gameplay is a bit stale and floaty compared to Reach. 3 has very devoted fans but it isn't as remastered as 2, and therefore will probably have a less influx of new players. Halo CE's multiplayer can't stand on its own against the others, even if it was great for its time. Basically, wait and see.

Halo 3's story was just short of 2's, unironically. Reach was decent, too.

I made a series of, what I attempted to be unbiased overviews of each game here for other anons who missed out.

I don't get into plot spoilers, I just describe what I feel are the strengthds and weakness's of each game's story, campaign missions, gameplay, soundtrack, map design, etc

I posted my best attempt at an unbiased summary/tl;dr on each game in the series here, if you are interested

Now let me tell you about Pimps at Sea, which was a build of Halo 3 sent to US Military troops overseas to play on their 360s for feedback and to give em something fun to do. From said screenshots it's clear that the primary difference is that it's basically Halo 2 assets with Halo 3 content and that's cool as fuck

Attached: 1541254155504.png (1280x720, 554K)

It's weird they're starting with Reach on PC, then going to CE. I don't think many people are going to migrate away from Reach due to just having more content and modes.

Are we getting news saturday or sunday?

Fuck i hope they release it on the day.

I think the first Halo game I owned was Halo 2 on Xbox.

I shit you not, MCC was my first time actually owning Halo CE. I'd call it the single best first-person shooter I've ever played and I quickly realized it does just about everything better than Halo 2 except cinematic highs and a few copy/pasted corridor sections. I actually mean everything.

Nah, Chief was always supposed to be a blank slate in Bungie's trilogy.
The books start him off as selfish and obsessed with personal victory, but he quickly becomes the leader archetype. Professional, self-sacrificing, noble, willing to lose a battle to win the war.

By H4 they go with a more "hey, isn't it quirky that Chief is an abducted child soldier fed a steady diet of experimental drugs and UNSC propaganda, with anything that could be interpreted as a human failing beaten out of him with a stun baton?" angle but they can't seem to really pull that trigger.
Chief's face reveal at the end of legendary is supposed to be this big fucking deal when they should have started with him dreaming in cryo-sleep about his first encounter with Dr. Halsey and expanded from there.
Pussy-footing around whether or not they want Chief to be a self-insert prop or a character led to that abomination in H5.

Because I know some of you will love this.

Any bets on it showing up in Halo Infinite?

I like Halo a lot but never fully played it because no Xbox but I did play it a lot with my friends, went to midnight releases, etc. I think it was MCC on Xbox that had it with Halo 1 being able to swap graphics with joystick presses. In theory, would the system requirements be lower for old graphics than newer, or would it be the same requirements because it needs to be able to do old and new always?

I wonder how the unlocks will work. they were all tied to xbox live achievements. how would that work on windows? windows store achievements? yikes.

So was Halo 2/ Halo 2A
youtube.com/watch?v=GYDklklJYog

Steam achievements, or some sort of in-game achievement system.
Piracy

Agreed, but I loved the feeling of melancholy all the Reach scenes had

Blur really outdid themselves with Halo 2A.

The Firefight was incredibly kino.
Reach got co-op down well, more than any of the other games.

>giant alien death machine smashes through building and points its giant alien death gun at your bulky transport that lacks any room to move

Stone. Fucking. Cold

All armour is unlocked from the start. You have no mix and matching and can only equip sets.

343 is aiming to change this later but that's how it's been since release. I imagine that if this is their goal they'll have Reach customization the same as it was in the original since armour customization was such a huge point in Reach.

aside from how REach differs from the book, the game's singleplayer is a phenomenal experience

It's the multiplayer that everyone hates

Yeah they aren't designed for Covies who can just slip space jump directly next to them and blow their boarding party load. I guess the idea is that any human ships attacking Reach or Earth should be seen coming a long way off and subsequently picked off.

twitlonger.com/show/n_1sqopdt

They're aiming to work on a progression system. Only thing I could think of that would give people incentive for that is armour unlocks.

ODST was free for people that bought MCC in the early release days. If you were to buy MCC now you have to pay for it but I think it's about $5.

odst is a $5 addon unless you played MCC at launch when it was a disaster (then it's free)

Originally it was only the games featuring MC but ODST was eventually added and now Reach is being added as well. No Firefight for ODST though. Only the campaign.

Locke tells him to stop. Chief says nothing. Locke aims his weapon. Chief turns around. Locke orders chief to stand down. There is a moment of silence before chief darts forward and ducks as Locke shoots. Chief rises up, >Locke blocks chief's punch and responds with a berate of hits which seem to connect well with chief. Chief goes to hit lock but Locke blocks both fists and is holding chiefs fists.
>Chief headbutts Locke which hurls Locke down to the ground. Chief goes to stomp Locke but Locke rolls over and equips a special weapon given to him by ONI which essentially locks down Spartan and elite armor.
>Locke shoots chief with the weapon once, stunning chief and putting him on his knees.
>Locke approaches chief but is surprised when chief grabs Locke by the throat and throws him a few yards away. Chief rushes Locke, who shoots chief several more times with the weapon, causing chief to stumble and crash into Locke. They both roll around, struggling to subdue the other. Locke grabs chief'S helmet, begins to twist it, but chief pivots his position and throws Locke over him, but Locke holds onto the helmet which is ripped off.
>The camera does not show us chief's face.
>Chief says "That belongs to me, you fucking nigger".
>Locke responds with "it's over 117, you're not the last Spartan anymore".
>Chief says "let's see if you're right" and reveals he now has the weapon. He shoots Locke once who is instantly subdued and can not move. Chief walks over, takes helmet, puts it back on, and goes to knock out Locke but suddenly we hear "Spartan, stop", as the arbiter enters the room.

The plan is for them to go on a mission to capture a Covenant prophet. Before the mission can begin, the Covenant pull a complete surprise attack. There's some action involving attempting to disable the orbital defensive MAC cannons. Ultimately the planet is very quickly destroyed. The Pillar of Autumn barely escapes.

But in the game:

There's drawn out military campaigns and land battles over what seem to be days and weeks. The spartan "Red Team" (Master Chief's team) is alluded to be taking part in civilian evacuations. The Pillar of Autumn is sitting in dock waiting for you at the end of the game. Presumably they leave right away for Halo with a covenant fleet in pursuit.

Honestly though, will Halo be the same with mouse aim? I know that Halo has been on PCs before, but it was bigger on console than it ever was on PC

They are putting the game on an incredibly popular platform. They are going to make a killing with this.

The only thing is people are able to turn around faster, once you've played enough Halo on console you can consistently 4 shot with a stick regardless. CE on PC doesn't feel massively different than it does on console (shoddy port notwithstanding).

I remember this. Yeah this was neat. Introduced me to Billy Talent too.

Honest question, I thought Halo was COD/Battlefield tier normie casual shit? I never played Halo, but I've always been of this impression.

With the Steam release of the MCC coming out and with so many people on Yea Forums seemingly genuinely passionate about the game, I'm curious as to what the appeal is of these games. Surely it can't be casual normie shit, since the passion in these threads and the talk about difficulty seems to suggest otherwise.

It's like tribes but with more sandbox and not as dead. 4 and 5 are COD garbage though.

For the uninitiated: Halo is a good game. The epic mature Yea Forums posters hated the fanbase, mainly the 12 kids screeching on mic.

Halo is the only still living Arena FPS. Newer games in the series from Reach and onward fuck with this, but the classic games are solid. Its really only babies first FPS when compared to games like Quake/UT, its still leagues better than CoD/BF.

Genuinely good single player with 11/10 music.
Multiplayer was very well balanced and innovated a shit ton on the normal formula.
Right place, right time factor made it a game most people played in their childhood/teens.

Does the Mongoose from Halo 3 count?

Female marines in halo 1 era armor would be the holy grail, but sadly it doesn't exist.

It has a charm, and, if you'll excuse the meme, soul, that really has never been matched in an FPS, for my money. It's worth it for the singleplayer alone.

Here's hoping I can actually run this at 4k.

Yeah that shit was the coolest. The marines in CE looked like fucking chads.

Halo is probably the last good, original, sci-fi/fantasy setting that actually has charm.
>Halo is the only still living Arena FPS.
also this

Up until (including) Halo 3 the weapons were all ballistic (all bullets have travel time) and there were no loadouts or anything like that. Everyone spawns equally and there are weapons and other pickups (armor called "shields", invisibility and in Halo 3 the "utility" pickups like trip mines, bubble shield) on the map. Imagine an old school arena shooter like UT or Quake and then slow it waaaay down so players can aim with an analog stick and it somehow works. That was real Halo. The console arena shooter. And if you're more interested in singleplayer, that was great, too. Wide open maps, great squad-based enemy AI, vehicles, it's nothing like the other games you mentioned.

4 and 5 are shit and paying for multiplayer in a subscription fee is wack, but now that it's coming to PC and the devs are promising more "classic" gameplay there's a real chance here that Halo can be better than ever before. And even if Infinite turns out bad we'll still have Halo 1-3 multiplayer on PC. Good times.

In fairness FFXI was a fucking fantastic MMO.

Thanks guys. I know most people say Halo 3 is best armor, and I understand why, but I always loved the Colonial Marines aesthetic of the first game. Plus it made more sense to me that as a human being, you'd want to strap big, bulky plates of whatever unobtainium all over yourself to not get plasma burns, whereas later guys slim down on armor and go all camo- even though most covenant have thermal technology

Halo 4 campaign is the best campaign in the franchise, you damn ass idiot.

So why does it have such a widespread negative reception as a normie series? Where did this reputation come from? Is it just from its high sales?

Cringe.

*snap*

I know it's better than Reach's campaign.

>why does it have such a widespread negative reception as a normie series?
because it is. normies love it. only contrarians think that that makes a thing bad.

as a Quake player I don't blame Halo for anything that went wrong with video games since. As a shooter designed for consoles Halo does almost everything right. It's not Halo's fault that fucking retards went ahead and tried to bring console gameplay to PC for the next two decades. That's on all the assholes who made those trash games, not on their creative influence. Besides, COD was the bigger influence any way.

Microsoft will never release a modern Halo on PC, because they would be risking us injecting our mods into it and making it vastly superior to the Xbox release.

this is VERY shit!

Why they changed it I can't say

RAMPAGE!
UNSTOPPABLE

The Covenant just liked it better that way.
You know, glassed.

Yeah Microsoft would surely not want you to play their games on Microsoft Windows. What a tragedy that would be. How would they recover?

I feel like they didn't match the feeling of running up the beach with your marines in Halo CE. On Legendary the easiest way to clear the mission was to move up instead of sitting at the back and letting all your guys die. Made for some great gameplay

Halo 2 single handedly shaped the last two console generations.

Halo 2 was the first major (possibly the first flat) title to encorperate matchmaking into its online infrastructure, for the first time sitting down and playing a (Reasonably) fair match was possible, without having to worry about server slots or if the clan hosting the server were going to be sweaty as fuck.

What Bungie did with Halo 2 was make FPS multiplayer online games accessable to the masses, the modern perception of games wouldn't have happened without Halo, the saturation of FPS games for most of the last decade is due to Halo.

Hell, even Esports in the West owes Halo something, MLG Halo 2/Halo 3 were quite big 10-12 years ago.

Halo 4's Railgun was amazing. Shame about the rest of the game

based and railpilled

Got so hard every time some fag rolled out a corner and I already had the railgun halfway charged to nail their ass

I mean its why they don't like it.

Hell, paid map packs were first made "acceptable" by Halo.

I say this as a big Halo fan but a lot of the trends people view as detrimental to the Industry at large started with Halo 2.
