i don't understand, is that good? i thought the first two were already there and the other games were bad?
First two were terrible ports kept alive by mod support. As for the other games, everyone wants Halo 3 which is objectively the best one.
Halo 3 was the biggest in the series, what rock were you living under? Are you 12?
Halo 1 CE is on PC
Halo 2's servers are down
Halo 3, Reach and ODST are very great games
Halo 4 is..the black sheep of the family. Not trash, but not good.
I just glad it's finally on steam and not some nonsense xbox app or GFWL shit
No dude halo 4 is just trash.
>muh 4's story was good
doesnt necessarily make it good. 3 was full of brodudes and literal children. 1 and 2 didnt sell as good as 3 only because ps2 sold vastly more than xbox, while 360 sold better than ps3
4 was pretty trash.
>game on PC gud!
>game not on PC bad!
The people playing the game have nothing to do with how good it was either. Halo 3 is the one I have the fondest memories of playing. The custom maps/modes were always fun to play.
Halo 4 is the game that killed Halo. Halo 5 is the game that raped the corpse and desecrated the gravesite.
Everyone that likes Halo 4 and 5 are children whose first game was Reach.
We in the golden age of Microsoft.
I hope Microsoft begin to release DRM-free versions of their old catalog. I don't care where (as long as it provides stand-alone installers).
>4
>not trash
>Reach is good
launch Reach was the worst halo multiplayer experience of all time
How come MCC has limited armor customization for halo 3? I thought it's just a port?
>Every Halo game!
>No Halo 5
Why is everyone forgetting this?
halo 1 and halo 2 are virtual impossible to get on PC physically. and 100% impossible to get digitally
call me when all gears of war will be on steam.
after that i will just waste my xbone.
It has all the good ones and one of the bad ones.
Not gonna happen. They would either need to be attached to an XBL SDK or a UWP installer on Windows 10 exclusively
>biggest disappointment
It's incredibly easy to forget that Halo 5 exists.
Because Halo 5 is a flaming turd of a game and I cant wait for the day when it is released on PC just so I can buy it and immediately request a refund.
I didn't say it was best, but still it was a huge phenomenon. It's like WoW getting ported to a console.
>requires windows 10
Reminder that you live in the timeline where every Halo game is being released on windows 10
YIKES!
Halo 2 project cartographer is a mod that revives the multiplayer and its quite active. Get and join the fun!
Is it windows 10 only? The steam page just says windows, but I know Microsoft likes making their shit windows 10 exclusive, so I'm not sure.
I don’t think a Windows 10 only game has ever been released on Steam, maybe I’m mistaken.
>unironically enjoying queers of whore
You should just stick to Xbox.
I think given that every halo game, including 6, is announced for PC 5 will come when the MCC PC is finished
>Is it windows 10 only? The steam page just says windows
I think you answered your own question
i don't think steam even allows W10 exclusives and DX12 is getting ported
it seems like microsoft is actually being cool for once
Yeah, every halo game
come with me we need more edge in gaybox community
True but it's not listed as windows 7 8 10 i have a bad feeling but i hope your right.
we also live in the timeline where halo was permanently damaged by 343i
1-3 will always be there
there's no timeline in which halo exists and is successful and doesn't get raped sooner or later, that's just how it goes
you have to be a special kind of incompetence to fuck up halo the way 343i did, especially after they fucked the originals in the ass with the original release of the MCC that they tried to sweep under the rug for years until they realized people weren't going to forget about it
it's a good game if you enjoyed your online experience being laced with screaming kids and 16 year old edgelords.
can't wait to replay 1 through 3 again and get to the part where they just randomly start playing an instrumental of a breaking benjamin song for no reason
u blame new devs for natural order of things?
Very subtle with that ending.
4s campaign had it's moments
Like the part where they fucked like rabbits!

lol Reach was Garbage and where the series and Bungie turned to shit.
Don't tell me you take those shitposters seriously.
now give me ninja gaiden 2 so i can die happy.
In 2007 Yea Forums we used to joke that someday the undderage tasteless faggots who grew up with Halo would make nostalgia threads about how good the games were.
How the times have changed.
I think you still need xbox app even if it is on steam.
We don't like first-person shooters on consoles because of obvious reasons.
Dropped.
>How the times have changed.
Not really, you're still a faggot.
go get some boomer juice grandpa
>It's an user pretends he's older than he actually is episode.
Is everyone retarded here?
Does this mean that the chance of Halo Wars 2 appearing on Steam rose from never ever to maybe?
Halo 1-3
>"Master Chief is a husk with light characterization that the player experiences the universe through"
Halo 4
>"Master Chief is a human being he has feelings"
Halo 4 is the worst? I thought it's 5. 4 being bad, but 5 being even worse.
Does the collection come with ODST?
I really, really want to do that campaign again, its been years but I remember it being top tier.
BRO DID YOU HEAR HALO IS ON PC OMG IM GONNA BUY ALL THE GAMES AGAIN AND ITLL BE JUST LIKE THE GOOD OLD DAYS WHEN I WAS 13 PLAYING HALO 3 ON XBOX LIVE IM GONNA MAKE MOUNTAIN DEW FLAVORED SOILENT
this
Maybe you should have read the books if you wanted the characterization for MC.
It's fantastic. It's great that they're doing chronological release as well so Halo 4 will be last and no one will give a shit, as it should be.
Halo 5's MP and forge have a free PC port, and those are the only good parts of the game
5 fixes a lot of what 4 ruined in terms of mechanics and MP, but it's still shit as a total package anyways because the campaiogn is awful and no local play
It's DLC for 5$
What are you even talking about? The actual ports of the games in MCC are great, they are the defintitive versions of each game. It's the universal UI and networking that was fucked, IE the shit tying each port together, not the ports themselves
Even the DOS ones?
>I will finally play cozy halo 2 capture the flag online
which map was your favorite capture the flag map?
What a time to be alive. Now for the Metal Gear Solid Saga...
Look at this faggot. Pretending Halo 5 is anything but complete trash. Not only is Halo 5 an awful Halo game, its just a shit game in general. Fuck you and the rest of you 343tards for enabling such an inept developer.
All no faggot Halo fans have nothing but burning hatred for 343i. Now fuck off back to r/Halo

bookfaggotry is what killed Halo
Bookfaggotry is a symptom of a bigger disease, 'lore faggotry' is what killed Halo. These fucking nerds pretending anything other than what Bungie put into the games is canon or relevant is what killed Halo. 343i being so keen on rewriting the simple, mysterious lore that bungie had is what killed Halo.
It's fucking sunday already even in burgerland. Where is my REach shadowdrop?!?!?!
The lore made Halo different from all the now forgotten shooters that wanted a quick cash in on the fad. Halo universe has care, even if 343 tried to ruin it lately
>If you don't hate litterally every single facet of the game that makes you a "343tard" and "enabling" 343
go fuck yourself, I freely admit that the game as a whole is shit, the idea that I can say that and yet somehow still be a 343i shill is absolute fucking delusion. That'd be like saying criticizing any part of CE, 2, etc makes you a bungie hater. Do you seriously not see the stupidity in that?
4 and 5 both have absolutely awful stories, but niether of them are book dependent. 4 in particular explains more of it';s shit in game then CE, 2, or Reach does.
The Didact and Librarian both have a basic epxlanation for their backstory in campaign, and then have a whole series of terminals devoted to them. Requim's originals are also heavily explained in the Terminals, and then the Promethain';s and the composer's origins are explained ijn detail both between the terminals and in Spartan ops. In contrast, CE, 2, and Reach just sort of expect you to figure out who the hell Johnson, Keyes, Cortana, The Covenant, Miranda, the Gravemind, Halsey, etc are as you go along.
it just seems like they are book depedent because their writing is fucking garbage
343 is in a wierd spot when it comes to the lore. On one hand, they absolutely fucking suck at picking the direction to go in and advancing the state of the universe: In less then 10 years after the events of Halo 3, there's been like 5 brand new galactic threads that have all been or are being dealt with, which is fucking absurd, and making the UNSC top dog was retarded as fuck.
On the other hand, on an indivual piece of media basis, their books are super solid: Aside from the Kilo 5 triology, New Blood, and that one young adult book, pretty much all of their novels have been at or above Fall of Reach quality.
>he doesn't like to blow scrubs into million pieces with the shotgun
But that's wrong, the lore made Halo great, Halo CE was the start, Halo 2 made the mistake of shoving it in the story instead of the background with the Arbiter, with Halo 3 Bungie made the smart decision to remove the Arbiter and make the lore optional to where the players had to find it. Halo 4 and 5's problems is it does what Halo 3 does but also wants to do what Halo 2 does which was already proven to be the wrong way to handle it, if you want to expand the universe through story, games like Wars, Wars 2, ODST, Reach, Spartan Assault, and Spartan Strike exist, fans don't care about that or want that kind of stuff in the mainline games, in the mainline games it's best to make it optional so having the Pheonix Logs in Halo Infinite could fix this little issue by making it a universal codex for the game. The good news is 343 are on the right track with making Infinite's story simple.
I agree that 343 had some solid ideas for lore, but then they just quickly changed their direction without any reason. Remember they delayed Silentium because of spoilers in Halo 4, and then they just fucking retconned part of their lore. Typical case of less would be more.
>In contrast, CE, 2, and Reach just sort of expect you to figure out who the hell Johnson, Keyes, Cortana, The Covenant, Miranda, the Gravemind, Halsey, etc are as you go along.
Omg you're that same cunt from yesterday. If you didn't understand who those characters are in terms of position, personality and motivations then you are autistic. Bungie did an incredible job of fleshing out those characters. I haven't read a single Halo book from old era or NuHalo and I still understand who they are.
How does an autist like you function in society, dealing with other human beings if you cant grasp simple characterization and personality quirks like the ones very obviously shown in Halo CE-Reach. What the fuck is wrong with you?
>everyone on Yea Forums is the same
I've always loved the 360 Halos, fuck off.
Even 4?
>gameplay is the same
It is not. The controls are vastly different and there's no aim-assist.
Now it's on a platform it was supposed to be on since the beginning.
not 5
Halo 2 was huge... It was Halo 2 when the series really took off and gained mass appeal.
Yup, they do this all the time and it's annoying, Halo 4 first had a tagline of "Wake Up, John!" which I liked and then they changed it to "AN ANCIENT EVIL AWAKENS" they then make Spartan Ops seem so important and then they shove the ending in a comic and it all amounted to nothing., Cortana dies in Halo 4 only to return with not much explanation in Halo 5, we didn't even see the Didact's ship enter slipspace in Halo 4. What happened to the Didact? Read a comic, they shove a bunch of book, comic, and live action series characters into the game without reintroducing them expecting you the player to know who they are by heart and Halo 5 has a serious tell and not show issue. Now they're spiritually reboot the series because they know they fucked up, I'm not really angry in the change in story direction with Infinite but it is getting tiring that they keep doing this when I saw nothing wrong with Halo 4's story direction for the future. The Halo 5 E3 2013 trailer still pisses me off because that wasn't the Halo 5 I got, it was literal Halo 2 deja vu all over again.
which part was that?
The end cinematic of Halo 4 is absolute kino.
dont know about you guys
but back then when the mp beta for reach was available i had a blast with my friends
when the actual game released, the mp felt different, it was fun but different, they fixed some things and it was fun 4 or 5 months after
i hope they get everything right from the start this time
You can nitpick oh the details but the stuff related to the Domain, the old humanity dealing with the flood, the flood itself, the Librarian, even the cis-Didact to some extent. They shouldn't hammer those 100k years ago happened events into the new games.
The Diadact's voice over is fantastic, shame they didn't go anywhere with it.
Objective: You know what to do.
>Your feelings when you thought the Didact was returning with an army of Forerunner Promethean Warrior-Servants to began the Reclamation on the Galaxy but in Halo 5 you find out it's just Cortana controlling giant ugly owls
Man, that was disappointing, way to drop the ball, Brian Reed.

New info today but when?
is reach the one where you can play as a female in MP?
I'd rather be a faggot than have shit taste in vidya like you.
yes
the ass is fat
>tfw remember skipping my 7th and 8th period to play Fire Fight in ODST and got banned the same fucking day
Honestly I missed out on so much fun, atleast I got to play Halo 3 and Halo Wars.
ehh 1 and 2 are already on pc
played 3 and didn't like it
pretty much this, it's just the grown up halo kids circlejerking it, why do they even care that it's on pc? don't they have xbones?
cool you dont like the games so why are you even in this thread?
>finds being a faggot preferable to bad taste
What a faggot.
No GOG, no thanks.
Imagine being an ONI engineer with the task to design the ass armor for a thicc Spartan female.
Halo on PC will fail.
Movement in Halo games is slow as molasses, weapon diversity and control is extremely narrow, rocket splash is so huge you only need to lead on vehicles, and the crosshair magnetism is way too heavy-handed and not in-line with advances in manual gamepad aiming since 2001. Things like the BR and removal of health packs took the game backwards after CE, and yet the fans still argue for a Halo 3 clone.
The thing is, Halo isn't just slow compared to arena FPS; it's slow compared to other console shooters. Everything from the movement speeds, to the physics, to the ultra-heavy crosshair magnetism, is all a relic of a by-gone era where no one knew how to make FPS control smoothly on gamepads. By the 360 era, things improved enough to support the much faster gameplay of later COD games, BF series, UT3, even some Quake 4 console tournaments in France, etc.
So yeah, you can call Halo whatever you want, whether it's "tactical arena FPS" or whatever, but it's really its own thing which bears limited appeal either to PC arena FPS players or even people used to the later console military shooters.
This
it's fun to fuck around in co-op but yeah the gameplay is Stodgy as fuck, movement is floaty and it's like you move everywhere at a leisurely jog
>game series already long released and made a gorillion dollars will fail
its just bonus at this point. the real question is why is microsoft trying to build so much goodwill with putting halo on pc, putting dx12 on win7, etc.
Literally no one cares. People want Halo and you can do nothing about it.
And I couldn't care less because I'm not a dirty american kid whose peak childhood is apparently playing that crap and eating domino's pizza
>only ever played Halo 4 for like a few days because my Xbox 360 was bundled with it and Tomb Raider
were the rest good? all of my other friends on 360 said that Reach was the shit and that i was missing out.
Halo Infinite. They want Infinite to be as big or bigger than Halo 3, and if they can tap into people limitless well of Halo 3 nostalgia, it could work. Halo still has massive brand potential and due to mismanagement by 343 its taken a huge drop with the millions of old fans being left wanting the original experience for over a decade.
This is a genius move by Microsoft.
Best timeline
I reckon Microsoft is trying to make up for the Xbone's relatively poor performance by courting users on every other platform, which in turn also makes them look more reasonable and open than Sony, the Xbox's main competitor.
...
You have underaged friends. Halo CE was great for the atmosphere. 2 added more elements while being similar. 3 was epic and going back to the roots. So yes you missed out but not with Reach
Why banned?
I don't think that pc version will fail. But this choice to release it slowly is a big issue.
There won't be too many players most likely. Something like PC version of CoD.
Will the PC keep local co-op campaigns?
>not on Epic Store
Chang on suicide watch!!
Have pepsi
this is my hope aswell, that M$ isnt being stupid and making it 10 only.
>Press X to Kill Final Boss
Halo 4 was shit.
>proceeds to go and make another thread about how he's going home with WoW classic
can everyone just stop with this shit right now
Im expecting full online only Windows, or shit like that.
>>game series already long released and made a gorillion dollars will fail
Yeah, it's not as the latest Halo games have shamelessly copied the game mechanics from Call of Duty in a desperate last bid for relevance.
Oh wait...
thats a deal breaker for people who are clueless with using windows
thats gonna be fun to see happen
Played 1on PC and 3 on 360, loved it, looking forward to playing reach and odst
Are halo 4 and 5 worth playing for the type or autist who used to read all the books and played everything up till reach?
IMO giving Chief some character is one of the better things 343 have done. He's not a Doomguy/Freeman who is purely silent, he quips and comments enough that he deserved some expansion character-wise(outside of books which had already done plenty of it and created a weird disconnect IMO), S-IIs had already been presented as more than quippy killing machines in Reach and if Halo 5 had actually explored that like was teased in the ad campaigns it could have been interesting. They also didn't lean too much into the mopey child soldier stuff, he accepts his circumstances and purpose, react to pretty much another human being living inside his head/armor and knowing a little more about how he thinks could provide a pretty interesting character, especially in gaming were we get a lot of meat heads (up until recently that is). What's your issue with it?
The 343 gene seed/forerunner-human/moving the universe forward stuff is just bad though
>. If you didn't understand who those characters are in terms of position, personality and motivations then you are autistic.
Right, and I'm not denying that. I'm not saying that you need the books to understand CE, 2, or 3, etc, i'm just saying that 4 litterally goes out of it's way to explain MORE about the stuff it introduces then those games do, so saying that "343 expects you to read the books to understand 4" is complete horseshit.
The reason 4 is hard to understand is because 4's writing sucks. Not because it's book reliant or anything
I was busy, user
The problem with that is MC already had a defined personality in the books and how he acts in 4 and 5 don't match up that well
>The 343 gene seed/forerunner-human/moving the universe forward stuff is just bad though
The forerunner novel material is top tier, so I disagree. What's in them just sounds stupid if you read a summary withgout seeing it in context.
I agree 343 sucks at moving the state of the universe foward though
>dude let's keep introducing new bad guys and factions over and over for the sake of conflict lmao
convince why I should read the forerunner novel trilogy, I have read the summery and thought they were retarded but I'll hear you out given you pointed out that's a common thing.
>I'm not saying that you need the books to understand CE, 2, or 3, etc
> In contrast, CE, 2, and Reach just sort of expect you to figure out who the hell Johnson, Keyes, Cortana, The Covenant, Miranda, the Gravemind, Halsey, etc are as you go along.
I didn't say that you said "you need books to understand CE, 2 or 3" I said that Bungie made their story and characters very clear and easy to understand.
>The reason 4 is hard to understand is because 4's writing sucks.
>i'm just saying that 4 litterally goes out of it's way to explain MORE about the stuff it introduces then those games do
Dude what even is your argument? Let me clarify my position and you do the same with yours: Halo 4 and 5 are objectively awful Halo games. They retcon a ton of Bungie lore (inb4 Bungie didn't have a plan/Bungie retcon themselves and the books) Bungie might of done all those things, and the result was still better than everything 343 has done. Bungies lore (as ramshackle as it was) was simple, mysterious, elegant and hope inspiring. 343 has completely defiled our perception of the Forerunners, the Flood, the UNSC, the MC, Cortana and the Covenant. I can go into detail about all of these points if you have the time.
You make all these halfassed concessions about 343's failures yet you still sound like your defending them.
Not that guy but it's a well written actual novel, not a "video game novel" like all the others. Has an interesting alien style that makes them very memorable.
There's an insane amount of worldbuilding. A huge amount of the first book is devoted to more or less just establishing the nature of forerunner society, technology, and how those interact; and he does a fantastic job of making the technology not just feel futuristic, but actually novel: It's not just "modern tech, but way better", there's actually really far out stuff that's just got no analogs to modern day technology, and there's a lot of care spent towards establishing and exploring how much forerunner society is built around them: The fact that stuff like consciousness transfering, on the fly genetifc manipulation etc as readily and easily as we use electricity goes a huge way to selling a sense of how old forerunner civilization is to have gotten here
In general, there's a palatable sense of timescales and distances as well. The characters in the novels are tens of thousands of years old, and the events and things being referenced are even older then that, as old and ancient to them as forerunner shit is to the UNSC and covenant
There's also a really, really strong Cosmic horror undercurrent to them, which gradually becomes more and more prevelant. It goes from a sort of dry look at forerunner society, then all hell breaks lose as it crumbles, post apocalyptic elements are introduced, which eventually devolves into body horror and psychological horror as the flood becomes more prvelalant, and then the entire last book is more cosmic horror then sci-fi. All of the stuff about the precursors is handled extremely well in terms of suspense, buildup, and payoff for the revelations, but outside the context of that buildup they sound lame and stupid (people often cherrypick the sillier sounding stuff as well, or ONLY talk about the red herrings and not the actual payoffelavations)
The whole thing feels like some sort of classical or biblical epic, you have legendary, ancient heros, and even older, otherworldly forces beyond their comprehension
Should I care? I never had an xbox, so no nostalgia goggles on me.
Heads up, Halo Wars is on PC already and there is a mod called the Leader OverHaul Mod that adds a whole bunch of good units and 3 new commanders.
One being Grunts, and another being the Flood!
It's pretty fun for some skirmishes while you wait for MCC.
Check out them hogs.
It seems you cant argue with these 343 apologists. Here is the story of the Forerunners as I perceived it based on bungie era Halo.
>Benevolent Godlike galaxy spanning empire is attacked by Lovecraftian horror plague of unknown origin
>Forerunners try every possible option to combat the mysterious parasitic entity but fail every time
>In desperation and to save the biodiversity of the galaxy they love, they construct massive weapons, covering them with beautiful landscapes as a testament to their love of life and the galaxy
>They wipe the galaxy clean, seeding other races and repopulating the galaxy. Every race except themselves.
>Humans are either a creation of or direct descendants of Forerunners that were either seeded or somehow survived
>This makes the conflict with the Covenant even more twisted, since the Covenant should be worshiping them as children of the gods
>This makes the conflict with the Flood even more twisted since the Gravemind would be really pissed at the humans being the children of the race that nearly destroyed it.
343 Lore
>Forerunners are created by an even more powerful race that can bend the galaxy to its will
>Humans are created by same godlike race and are given 'the mantle'
>Forerunners collectively get jealous and wipe out their creators (this is already very derivative of biblical stories)
>Godlike beings allow their destruction, some turn themselves into 'stasis dust' for some reason which becomes corrupted
>Humans find this dust and feed it to their pets for some reason
>Pets mutate in a fashion similar to the movie Prometheus somehow creating the Flood
>Even though humans had nothing to do with the dusts races genocide it attacks humans
>Humans flee into Forerunner space, butchering Forerunners for some reason instead of explaining the threat and asking for help
>Forerunners defeat them, devolve them, experiment on them, torture them and turn them into floaty robot soldiers
To be continued
I also live in the timeline where zoomer retards think these shitty FPS games being on PC means something.
youy are forgetting Halo 2 Anniversary is great
Isn't that a casual RTS for people who never played an RTS game in their life?
If you dont care for Halo, I would suggest waiting until we have an a-ok on custom mod tools being given out. That's where Halo really gets its near infinite replayability. But, overall the halos are pretty fun comfy arena shooters that still have map and weapon pickup control. Along with vehicles.
So I'd suggest it, plus the custom gamemodes, like infection, support some pretty fun game types. Like Fat Kid. Where there is one fat zombie that has to slowly turn all the regular players into fast weak zombies.
Yeah, it's pretty simple, but it's a fun little RTS for cheap and the mod I suggested is a 1 step exe install and it makes the game a lot more dynamic. You can still play online with people who have the mod too, and it's pretty popular. For Halo standards.
Got a mega for the game?
I'm so happy I'm going to get to play these games with friends. I'm so happy I'm not as miserable as you.
>Forerunners begin war with Flood
>Losing war, build Greater Array and Greater Ark (classic one-up'ing shit. Oh you thought the Ark and Halo's were cool? In our version they were bigger! But now they are boom..)
>Why the fuck did they even bother with that Greater Array shit?
>Defeat imminent, activate array but not before storing floaty voldemort in stasis
>Reseed humans for some reason, give them genetic cheat code that somehow guarantees they will do incredibly specific things after thousands of years of evolution
>Like one day designing a specific type of armor for a specific super soldier
>Because mutation and evolution are not a thing in this universe
And thats just the summary. 343 Lore is a convoluted mess of derivative ideas and one-upman-ship of Bungies universe. I will be a Bungie puritan forever.
Thats great, I was looking for a mindless shooter binge.
That simply means Microsoft gave up console competition and handed 9th gen to Sony.
Enjoy your lopsided domination.
>I said that Bungie made their story and characters very clear and easy to understand.
Sure, and I agree with that, for the most part at least: I don't think most people who haven't read fall of reach will get who halsey is in reach, for one example.
>You make all these halfassed concessions about 343's failures yet you still sound like your defending them.
Because you are assumming that since i'm disputing people's criticisms, that means i'm defending 4's plot, when in reality it just means that I think the criticisms are bad criticism: I can find the criticisms unsound, while still thinking that 4's writing is shit.
That all being said:
>. 343 has completely defiled our perception of the Forerunners, the Flood
I disagree here. The actual Forerunner Flood lore established in the forerunner novels is fantastic. The issue is, as I say here , that lore only works inside the context of the Forerunner novels, because Greg Beare is a fantastic writer and only really he can pull off the crazy shit he writes in a way that works.
Now, granted, a few of the other novels and media have tied some stuff together in alright ways, but 343 themselves at least are certainly not capable of executing or working with the stfuf Greg wrote in a way that comes off either as coherent, or as not stupid (which is also the issue with people posting plot points from the forerunner novels out of context)
Now, again 4 still DOES provide explanations inside itself, it's just that 4's writing is ass
Have you actually read the Forerunner novels or did you just read wiki summaries?
That aside, nothing in them contradicts prior established lore. We DIDN'T know anything about them other then that they were veruy advanced, built the halo array to combat the flood, wiped themselves out in the process, and had a special relationship with humanity. None of that has ceased to be true.
Sony only makes walking simulators
>I didn't understood a thing: the Post!
It does not matter what you think of their games. They simply will win 9th gen.
Halo Infinite is pretty much 343i taking the hint after several years of being spiteful. It's been confirmed several times over that Halo 2, 3 and even CE's multiplayer modes get more traffic in the MCC than Halo 4.
A literal sônygger.
moving without sprinting going to get time used to
>Have you actually read the Forerunner novels or did you just read wiki summaries?
I'm not going to spend hours reading something I fucking despise. While I agree the author might be a great writer in terms of themes, characters, dialogue, prose and all that shit, I just find the story (the events) absolutely ridiculous and convoluted.
>That aside, nothing in them contradicts prior established lore.
In Halo 1, 2 and 3 we are told that we are the children of Forerunners. Guilty Spark directly calls Chief a Forerunner. Prophet of Truth says that they were our forefathers.
This indicates that were are either their creation or their literal descendants. 343i's lore completely contradicts that, by having humans and forerunners not only as completely seperate species, but at odds with one another.
343i has most certainly contradicted the lore.
alright, I'm convinced, I'll at least give them a chance.
what was he wrong about?
samefag
Played the first level of halo 1 for the first time 2 days ago. after gazillion years it's still really dumb game.
>Can't follow such a basic plot
Maximum Brainlet.
Most of those points he made make sense in context. He left out a ton of details about the controversy about the forerunner society, like valuing the builders the most even though they wanted the mantle which is about preserving life. They didn't plan the whole reseeding thing for the most part since the Halo effect itself was discovered accidently after field testing the array. It was not built for that purpose. And they had not much society left in the later part of the war when Mendicant took over the fleet. Just a handful of the leaders who felt guilty for both the precursor and the humans.
>No ODST Firefight
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
MUSTARDS GET OUR SCRAPS AGAIN
ENJOY YOUR SHITTY GIMPED PORT
>wanting to play as the regular human in the supersoldier space marine game
Shigguidy.
I haven't been this excited for a game in a very long time.
ODST Firefight was a thousand times better than Reach's Firefight.
So he was at least 70%-80% right the other stuff?
i will be only if it's not win10 only.
Basically unlimited health even though enemies don't even damage you. Basically unlimited ammo. Can run past enemies unless they block some corridor and they'll just disappear at some trigger point.
No need to aim because fucking huge crosshair with autoaim. No wonder people said that og xbox controller was good for fps games.
You can admit that you are the same person, I won't judge. Also it was a few examples. Just read the novels, it's all in the context.
It won't be. Steam has no Win10 exclusive games, and I doubt they'll start here.
Especially since dx12 is being ported to Win7.
Just keep in mind that they are sort of dense reads with a slow burn. The second book in particuclar can be sort of a slog.
In comparsion to the other Halo books, they are way, way more about tone, mood, and worldbuilding, tension, and building up to mysteries/reveals, not so much on physical actions or events, but when events DO happens, shit is fucking hitting the fan, either in terms of crazy, society/world shattering shit physically, or in terms of huge, nature of the universe relavations
Not really. Reach had a THOUSAND TIMES more Firefight options and maps.
People liked to use this to trivialize Firefight, but it's stupid that people still think it's a fault of the mode for having more options.
>Basically unlimited health even though enemies don't even damage you
>Basically unlimited ammo
Stop playing on Easy would be my advice.
>Not really. Reach had a THOUSAND TIMES more Firefight options and maps.
And it doesn't matter because the maps sucked and the modifier changes sucked. Let's not even go into how they botched the performance of the mode so there was a perpetual one second delay on movement.
Off topic but what's the to go to vidya card atm? Rx 590?
>that part where they are on installation 07 on collision course with a planet and they aim it so the planet goes through the ring
Was I not correct in my summary? I'm not going to put hours upon hours into those novels when I am already so pissed about the lore changes. Answer the question. Were those events in the order I described them mostly correct?
Calling me a samefag when this is literally you
>doesnt necessarily make it good. 3 was full of brodudes and literal children
clearly you didn't play
>Things like the BR and removal of health packs
Health packs made literally zero difference in CE you retard, what's the difference between getting headshot 3 times with the BR and getting headshot 3 times with the pistol
Shadowdrop today?
I mean it's a 10 year old game, unless it's optimized like absolute trash Once would hope that at least pcs from 7 years ago should play it. Thing is the company responsible for the port is the one that did the god awful gears ultimate pc port.
Me, my bible: youtube.com
I already told you those events made sense in context. They didn't revive humans for whatever reason while they didn't themselves, that made perfect sense. There was a reason behind that. You'll only know these reasons if you read the books. Fuck off otherwise.
>Books
If your story cannot be told via the games alone, it's a shit story not worth taking in.
An that is an important difference between Bungie Halo and 343 Halo, it even says it in this (excellent) video: youtu.be
>playing on easy
Yes, our point was that the story of 4 and 5 is a pile of crap. Doesn't make the books bad, just because you don't like to read
The hands-down worst part of Halo's lore is the Flood's origin story being "The earliest Flood spores were used as a Forerunner pet grooming product, before the pets turned evil"
The modifier changes were the opposite of bad.
Stick to your fucking books then. We're talking about the games and when bungie was in power, the games lore came before the books. Now its the inverse. And not only that, but they ruined everything that made most of the faction in these games cool. Which is why Halo 4 and 5 failed on every level.
You have been btfo'd so many times just go back to r/HaloStory and stick your fucking head in the sand till another shitty book is released.
What are the odds that for the PC release that Halo 3's cutscenes are remade like Halo 2?
>calling ODST shit
Not allowed here; it's got its faults, but Yea Forums's consensus if that Firefly meets Halo is actually good.
the forge mp thing on the windows store was fun
I want more headshot only games
Is it out today?
Considering it costs around a million per minute of Blur CG I wouldn't hold my breath.
god you're annoying, I just asked a question.
>I want more headshot only games
You people are the worst
How long is it going to take to release every game from the collection?
one every 3 months? 6 months? its going to take years to get the whole package.
why? because you can't land headshots without autoaim?
*AHEM
>first game was the OG Halo on XBAWX HUGE
>grew up with Halo
>Loved Halo: Reach more than 3
>Very much enjoyed 4 despite its flaws
My favourite part of 4 was playing the weekly pve mini-episodes. I preferred playing Halo Reach's multiplayer more tho.
Its 343i. Reach will come out in July. It will be unplayable broken. It will get incremental updates for 2 years and get about half fixed. Then they'll drop and start the cycle over with Halo 1. By Halo 3, they'll just quietly drop the project and we will only have Reach, 1, 2, and maybe the multiplayer from 3.
No Halo 4.
0%.
Halo 3 looks fine anyway. It hasn't aged that much. I'd rather them wait another gen before remastering it. Who knows, we might get a ray-traced Halo 3 one day.
I'd partly defend halo 4 myself but spartan ops was bad, an interesting experiment I'll give it that, but overall amounted to nothing but more time spent with fucking sarah palmer
I just liked shooting the aliens. They felt like PQ's from Dragonball Xenoverse or similar missions in other games.
Never played Halo 4. Does it really rape the lore this bad? Why do so many sci-fi universes pull the "ancient humans" shit that contradicts biological evolution?
>forerunner pet
Brainlet detected.
my bad, ancient human pet.
I was there for the days when the only FPS allowed to be discussed was Quake.
They weren't better times. Everyone was too brainlet to understand the mechanics of Halo 3 and why just because it's slow, it doesn't mean it doesn't take skill. They know nothing of the 4 shot, well placed nades or taking on 3 guys at once and winning. Old Yea Forums was full of retards.
>here's all these cool mechanics
>now let's throw them all out and only play SWAT
>Consoles get new games
>PC fags excited for ports of old console games
I've been arguing with this 343tard for hours and even he admits that that is basically correct. Lacking *some* context, but otherwise accurate
see
no they are not. amazon.com
kek
such is the master race
PC gets new games too, but now we also have yours.
I enjoyed halo 4 a lot and my first game was CE a year after it came out. it's not great, but it's not as mind blowing bad as people paint it to be. that's halo 5.
Because modern humans evolved in an exceptionally short amount of time and there's no missing links to truly tie them to any ape
species. It's a plausible theory to explain why we're so fucking weird. Overdone though.
They suck though. I would regret getting a new gayming PC over a console if insurance didn't pay for the fucking thing after my old desktop got bricked by a hurricane.
Again, we're not trying to take away your enjoyment of Halo 4. We are simply saying that every single decision 343 has made regarding lore, artstyle and gamplay for Halo 4 and 5 have been objectively terrible, bordering suicidal from a business perspective. And that you and the rest of the 343tards have shit taste because you seem to be in love with and defend an objectively shit product that killed an otherwise incredible story (before they took over) and destroyed an incredibly popular franchise.
So people are suddenly nostalgic for this franchise huh? Its Shenmue all over again. Yeah remember that? You all cried for 20 years and it released with little fanfare and is already forgotten.
Prediction: online will be dead in a year- will not reanimate Halo
so release fucking WHEN
I was under the impression that MCC didn't include ODST pc still doesn't have every halo game
ONE GAME EVERY 6 MONTHS WILL TAKE YEARS TO GET THE WHOLE THING
>comparing chink RPG that was niche to begin with against world-renowned FPS franchise that made literally a gorillion dollars and was the flagship franchise of an entire platform
They updated ODST and put it on the MCC for xbox players
When and where is the stream today?

Much better.
He calls the Chief a Reclaimer, not a Forerunner. They were dropping hints about the Mantle even in the first game.
>cross shit avatarfag continues being a complete cuckold

Don't forget 2 and 3 set the stage for them to do what they did with shit writing.
>consoles get the same rehashes of old games
>PC gets the porn games
I DON'T CARE
WHEN IS REACH RELEASE
No.
He mistook Master Queef for someone he wasn't because of the suit being similar to shit forerunner used.
All we know right now is "later this year". If we dont get any news soon then release will probably be announced at E3, or the release will be at E3 as a "surprise" announcement together with Halo Infinite news
>youtu.be
>"You are the child of my makers, inheritor of all they left behind. You are Forerunner! But this ring is mine.
Bungie lore wasn't that planned out at the time, hell the writing of Fall of Reach I believe was actively blocked at one point if I remember correctly, judging that line in a vacuum (so just Halo 1 material) it only implies a relationship between human and forerunners maybe.
See
This hasn't been confirmed yet and it's pretty worrisome. I've only ever played CE on Xbox so I don't know if the PC versions ever had it, but I've seen webms of PC versions that looked suspiciously much like auto-aiming/bullet magnetism. If they do decide to ruin it with auto-aim it's a no buy for me.
So the Halo event starts in 3 hours, apparently we get news on MCC PC before the finals, soo... 5-6 hours from now?
Fucking esportfagas
>Hehe consoles are getting new games! Take that mustard race!
>Actually we're getting your games too
>Yeah but they suck though!
Wtf is wrong with you
>Bungie lore wasn't that planned out at the time
Yeah and they still did a better job than 343. Bungies lore took ideas from Staten, Nylund and O'Donnel. They followed the rule of cool.
>hell the writing of Fall of Reach I believe was actively blocked at one point
Yes, because Bungie understood that the only lore or story that matters to the game and most gamers is what is specifically in the game. Not extended lore books.
>it only implies a relationship between human and forerunners maybe.
Guilty Spark and Truth literally call humans "Children" of the Forerunners. Guilty Spark says in no uncertain terms that Chief IS a Forerunner: youtu.be
isn't it being released on win10? not """pc"""
It was pretty fun to watch yesterday, they did a lot of "fun" games rather than focusing all on competitive modes.
Okay I just have one question, I know the didact was in Halo 3 terminals, but did bungie introduce the two didact shit or was it 343?
Even if it does have it, which it won't, the aim assist in Halo CE was negligible compared to the later games. It would barely help at all playing with a mouse.
I was only aiming to refute Bungie 'foreshadowing' the mantle which I believe was a 343 addition, I agree with all your points already you're preaching to the choir.
I meant PC exclusive games. It's a never ending trash garbage cascade.
I thought it was already going on. Sunday: 12-5pm CT/10-3pm PT
in 1994 Yea Forums we used to joke that our children will grow up thinking they were old fags on Yea Forums, and that arguing over consoles or video game preferences made them cool
I never said anything about Bungie foreshadowing the mantle.
I really have no idea. I'm only interested in the lore bungie put in the cutscenes and gameplay, because that is the only thing that really matters. And its not like I hate all the lore just because its from 343. There is *some* 343 lore I like, but only because it in no way contradicts or retcons Bungies established lore.
Its good because those who like those games get to play it with a mouse and keyboard as god intended all shooters to use.
In 1946 Yea Forums we used to joke that our children's children would grow up thinking that the germans were right all along, now look at what happened.
my bad I thought you were the guy I had originally replied too
This. Oldfags, while not as bad as tasteless redditors, were still retarded. Halo, doom, and quake are all incredible games. All because encounter design was hand crafted with excellent enemies and levels. Halo is far more like great oldfag shooters than modern day loot shooter trash.
naw 3 hours to start
No worries. The fucked thing about these 343tards is that they all say "343i never retconned Bungie lore." but they have next to zero fucking clue about the lore. Its like all they read was the books and all they played was Halo 4 and 5.

I already have Halo 1 & 2 for Xbox but I haven't played them yet because I don't have an Xbox. Should I buy the PC collection or buy an Xbox to play the originals? I feel like if I play it on PC with a keyboard and mouse I won't get the experience that the developers intended or it might be too easy since it was designed for controllers.
Oh nonono! Epic chads won

The infinity used covie tech so it fits.
Yeah. Good name fore covie ship tho?
1 & 2 were ported to PC in 2003 & 2007, respectively. Halo 1's PC port doesn't function as well with a controller, but 2's was practically designed for it.
So since they were designed for controllers it wouldn't matter if I play them on the original console or with a controller on PC, but I shouldn't try to play them with KB/M on PC?

Name a better scene

Halo 1 is fine with a mouse, but 2 has terrible mouse acceleration that can't be disabled. It's not like Perfect Dark where almost all of the game is based around autoaim. There is some on console, but it's not like playing with a mouse will cheapen the experience.
It's worth noting that the original console releases are 30fps and dip frequently depending on what's happening.
UNSC Verdant Path
Ok, but the Master Chief Collection would probably fix the mouse acceleration issue right?
I also have a CRT that I would use if I play it on Xbox but on PC I can't so that would also factor in.
I played 2, it was smooth as butter
Monsters from wars
Halo always had ancient humans, that wasn't a 4 thing.
It likely will, but this is a matter of playing it now or playing it in a yet-undetermined time in the future.
MCC PC should force controller only and combine matchmaking with Xbox players.
That or have a separate matchmaking mode based on input with controller players cross play enabled.
Game was pure shite all the way around but the story was good. Take it out and slap it in a book and then Halo 4 has no redeeming qualities
Where was it mentioned? Was it still the super advanced humanity that cucked Foreskins by cracking precursor technology?
Ever since H1 the Forerunners were portrayed as ancient human ancestors.
>, butchering Forerunners for some reason instead of explaining the threat and asking for help
They didn't butcher anyone it simply was a situation of 'Your ships in our space'.
>MCC PC should force controller only
You ought to be flogged to death for even thinking that.

That was only in Halo 1 though.

Yea Forums is dead
Have ALL of you fags already forgotten about El Dewrito???
Both Halo CE and Halo 3 have been on PC for many years now, as community run things.
Also, Halo is a shitty, slow version of UT, with bullet magnetism and a weapon limit. You children don't deserve to play good games.
Was Yea Forums not dead already?
I don't know if they were ancestors but some Forerunners held ancient humans in some regard.
I only care about the sp, not the multi so for me it didn't exist on PC.
It will be years before the best one comes out because they release in chronological order. Stop making these threads - they're just torture. Constant reminder of the wait.
I don't mind waiting longer if I'll have a better experience with the game
>years
How can you get excited for something happening 6 months from now?
Yes they said they're really focusing on PC "bells and whistles" such as HDR, 4k, ultrawide support and of course full keyboard plus mouse controls.
>Steam has no Win10 exclusive games
Why should Steam care about system requirements?
Maybe they'll bother to finally bring Fable 2 to fill in that gap as well.

What are you on about, retardo? CE played great and had a lot of players at the time. I even have it installed still. 2 was on Vista which fucked it up.
>to ensure that each game gets a population
They should strip away multiplayer from everything but 3, so that Halo players wont be spread out across five games' multiplayer.
>I want to buy CE again but on Steam this time!

Imagine being this casual.
Halo 1 2 4 5 are already on pc
They are literally just remastering them and finally releasing 3 and reach along with odst.
How new are you faggots?
T. Halo fan
When you're an ODST, you need to die from great falls, no survive it, it killed the immersion of the game.
You’re not scientifically literate.
Halo 2 had best
fall damage only restricts gameplay options, it being removed in Halo 2 was just another reason why it was the best
>no Halo 5
I'm a little upset
>tfw comfy odst coop with the the bros
Yeah user, let’s just potential CE on modern OS/hardware with that thriving community
I wish 343o would port maps to all the games. Like I want all the Halo 3 and Reach maps in H2A.
Why?
>not playing 16 player FFA on small maps and random weapons
No, you aren't. Your very mentality is fucked.
POST SOUNDTRACK KINO
Removing fall damage only makes the game play itself even more. It removed any sort of thought when moving around the map, letting players drop from any height for free.
In CE, you could time a crouch perfectly and avoid fall damage.
Whatever you say
4 and 5 are the only Halo games I haven't played and I don't have an Xbone.
If Halo 2 isn't your favorite game in the franchise were you really even there for the best times?
what are you talking about? there's been zero dates revealed.

I dont know about ODST but in Halo 2 everyone having BRs meant being airborne at any moment was an instant death sentence since you lose all ability to dodge
Fall damage was stupid. it limited the amount of verticality you could add to maps because some chucklefuck in CTF could throw a flag to somewhere you couldn't jump and his team mate could run off with it with you having no way to get down fast enough to contest it.
Lore wise Spartans could jump from orbit and land with only broken bones.
Yeah you're right everyone will realize how slow Halo is and start playing Quake, also everyone clapped and gave me $20
>it limited the amount of verticality you could add to maps
But CE had the most amount of true verticality on its maps.
That sounds completely fine. Getting the flag out of base was always difficult in halo
Nigger, Bungie literally released a patch for Windows 10. Everyone is playing CE RIGHT NOW. Educate yourself, Valve cuck.

That would be an exclusive war actually talking about.
gears of war was never good
MS owns gears.
They also did the Arkham Origins port.
But on the other hand, they did RTCW.
They didnt. It's just the shitty e-sports crap. Been watching it. Probably doing the e-sports stuff first THEN go into MCC announcements because god knows nobody watches the Halo e-sports crap
Well Epic developed Gears with Microsoft so that makes some sense
How did it take them this long to figure out people want Halo on PC? Combat Evolved is still being played to this day.
Sure as hell hope they don't ruin it by it needing a 1080 for a 10 year old game. Only have a rx 480
Dat nigga is from the future.
They always knew. It's just Microsoft has been pushed so low in the console war that they need to do this to gain grounds.

>announcing a release date for something that hasn't been shown yet
release it..... now.... or else....
they said at the main announcement that today they would say how fans could "get involved" so maybe there'll be some kind of insider program announced or something?
In 341 BC Yea Forums we used to joke that our descendants would take to Diogenes' philosophy and publicly defecate instead of engage in conversation and behold, we have shitposters.
no, it's just some dumb esports stuff right now. probably an hour till they actually talk about MCC news
i'll have to use my full power....
Isn't there supposed to be an announcement today regarding more info on MCC on PC?
Admiral Cole's Revenge
JUST
will the gun meta change in the later games (3 and on) now that itll be on a m+kb?
Only a downie expected there to be a release today. You set yourself up for disappointment.
welp. No reason to watch this shitty MLG copycat halo stream then.
no br and dmr still top tier
It’s on steam already
only the original is, 2 is still W10 store exclusive
Literally who gives a shit about gears of war.
>buy it separately
If they do this it'll 100% fail.
NO RELEASE DATE NEWS AT ALL
WHY EVEN ANNOUNCE IT AT ALL THEN?
FUCK YOU 343
>people that say Halo 5's multiplayer is good
It's shit, Halo 5 doesn't incorporate advanced movement into combat well at all. You can't keep flying around the map while fighting unlike Titanfall so you're left with stretched out maps with dead space that nobody actually wants to be.
To be fair the "timing" windows they announced for the major MCC update (essentially rewriting the entire collection from scratch) was accurate. If they continue the same level of communication and work they out into updating it for last September I'll be happy.
>literally going to be a winter 2019/early 2020 release at this point if they can't even give us a clear release date
Pack it up guys, we're done. See you December.
Better than Reach
>this retard thinks halo PC will have auto aim and magnetism
lmeo
I know what webm you are talking about, that was a shitty free aimbot that everyone and their mum used on halo CE
Yeah, at the H3 finals.
Halo 3 > halo reach > halo CE > halo 3 ODST > halo 2 > halo 4 > halo 5 > halo wars games
That's some shit taste you got there
>but I've seen webms of PC versions that looked suspiciously much like auto-aiming/bullet magnetism
after playing the PC version of 2 for a while it does feel like peoples heads have bullet magnets on them
Why even announce MCC on PC at all then if you don't have a release date set? This shit is going to be months off JUST to get Reach. 2020/2021 till we get fucking Halo 3 at this point
>mcc is coming to not only pc, but steam on top of that
>phil is finally undoing don's fuckup
Nigger
In that case I hope we see one that sets their models to all mark V with slight variations
Dropping the oddball of the map should give you a -10 second penalty.
So sick of the ball reset meta.
Why do those fuckers fuck up every time?
>no release date promised
>faggots still getting mad about what some random on Yea Forums posted
I don't care about the other games, I'm just hyped to be able to play Halo 3 multiplayer again.
He means meta in the sense it's one of the more versatile weapons that works in a lot of situations and you just so happen to start with it as default. Halo 1 multiplayer was a bumrush to the actually good weaponry if you didnt start with the magnum
Press F to pay respects to all the people who died between Halo 3 not being on PC and this.
It shits on Halo: Reach and Halo 4's multiplayer so it's good.
Do you happen to have Halo Wars too?
Press F for all the people that are going to die from now till Halo 3 releases in fucking 2021 at this point because 343o isn't even ready to talk about a release date for REACH, meaning we have to sit here and wait for Reach, Halo 2 and Halo 2 to release first, THEN we get Halo 3 on PC.
There was NO fucking point in announcing MCC for PC this early. It's only making people like me fucking angry now.
Wars is easily accessible on Steam
those two are unsupported
Yeah but it costs money. And I'm not convinced yet that a console RTS is actually worth paying for.
It was made by Ensemble and it's pretty fun.
