Can we have a civilized discussion about Halo, and why 2 is the best?

it's literally the least significant of them all.

But it's the most fun. 3 was over the top and 4 was short garbage. Haven't played 5.

Halo 2 has best MP buy Halo 1 has best SP.

>fastest multiplayer
>no fall damage
>cool weapons and dual wielding combos
>best maps

It was the closest Halo has been to a fast paced arena shooter.

I hate to be OP and the one who says this, but let's focus on single player

Dual Needlers were incredible. Sad they got nerfed in 3. 2 had a better campaign than CE, but I think I like 3 just a little more. I never cared to get Xbox Live so I don't have an opinion on multiplayer.

CE>3>2

2 has the best campaign. Admit it anons: you were all super invested in the story's cutscenes and marine/elite dialogue.

Well I have good news for you faggots. Halo 2's remake looks goddamn beautiful. You're gonna love this campaign all over again.

haven't played anything other than the mainline 3, but driving a scorpion tank down that bridge and shooting down wraiths in the sky was the reason I picked up an xbox in the first place after being a dedicated PC/nintendo kid for my entire life. along with gears 1

Because 2 ain't the best.

But the needlers were better in 3.

CE didn't have fall damage if you were good, and was played at a much faster pace. Halo 2's weapon spawn system was fucking retarded.

Are the books any good or worth reading? I'm sitting here questioning whether to pirate them all or not.

>halo 2

Why does no one ever mention the button combos like BXR, BXB, and double shotting?

That's what put it over the top for me. The maps and the speed of the game plus the button combos was intense.

halo 2s engine was prone to some hilarious bugs from time to time

>Contains 90% of the story and was the one that made console multiplayer FPS big
>I-It's insignificant

>the best
It had the worst MP and second worst campaign though. If you were unironically wasting your time with Halo 2 and missing out on the golden age of Halo Custom Edition on PC then you aren't a true Halo fan, just some dumb console kiddie.

This

why is halo getting spammed so hard? its not good. it doesn't doing anything that hundreds of other shooters do exponentially better. stop it.

I refuse to believe anyone who didn't play CE first honestly believes its the best. It's so fucking clunky and awkward compared to the rest of the (Bungie-made) series. The vehicles are godawful, the balance is atrocious, it looks like shit, literally all it has is nostalgia when compared to 2 or 3.

>why are you guys talking about things i don't like!
silly oldman

MMC got announced for PC.

This

The ttk in 2 was huge, you could only kill after 2/3rds of a magazine was gone.
Fall damage is a good thing
Dual wielding ruined balance and the weapons were also reduced in damage and function, things like plasma stun was removed.
Many of the maps were too large and the spawns were a huge problem. Infact the maps were signed with Moba in mind.

Threadly reminder:
>genuine boomers and halo vets prefer Halo CE for it's simplicity
>normalfag zoomers who are new to halo but pretend to be tough old veterans of the series say that Halo 2 is the best to get street cred

I was 10 when Halo 2 came out.

Is it true people got really mad that you played half the campaign as the Arbiter?

people were expecting an epic battle on earth but that was cut and delayed to Halo 3. people were more mad about the cliffhanger ending, only retards would hate on the arbiter parts

Yes. Things I remember people bitching about when Halo 2 first came out:
The Arbiter
Playable elites
Duel wielding
Vehicle hijacking
The beam rifle
Energy sword
I remember reading Gamefaqs and the IGN forums at the time and everyone was shitting on the game.

The Halobabbies grew up and are finally getting their bone with the PC release. Never mind that Halo is just a shitty consolized Unreal/UT.

Unreal was never good and UT ended up stealing from Halo with the second one anyway

>Unreal was never good
That just makes Halo even worse.

Aside from the cliffhanger ending, 2 has the best writing and dialogue out of all of them. 1 was good for it's fairly simplistic storyline and worldbuilding, 2 improved on tenfold, the dialogue of the major characters felt more mature. 3's writing felt like a step backward, becoming more hammy in an attempt to be "epic"

Halo was never as bad as Unreal 2, like I doubt even Halo 4 was even close to as bad as Unreal 2 was. Christ Unreal 2 was bad

Halo Reach is the only good halo game.

i play the triplogy in order once a year or so, and the jump in polish from 1 to 2 always impresses me being on the same console. 3 really didnt seem like as big of an improvement.

it is objectively the best written and scored game of the series, it would have been the best game objectively in the series had it not been for overambition and the xbox being a fossil

1 was the best in all respects. 2 introduced the space pope and a whole bunch of incredibly retarded expansions of the universe, while 1 was "oh shit we're stuck on this ancient alien artifact oh shit some ancient plague has been released." Simple and effective instead of bloated and retarded. Halo 1 on PC was a blast as well and had godly mods.

How did he survive Halo CE? He was right next to the ship when it blew, with that Elite

isnt there a comment concerning that in the intro for Halo 2?

>sorry gunns, classified

>T. pc aimbotting pablo

>introduced the space pope and a whole bunch of incredibly retarded expansions of the universe
and it was infinitely more interesting then the generic zerg ripoff monsters. the Covenant always stole the show with their unique designs anyway and making Halo 2 mostly about them was a good thing

there is a reason it's so typical

What is Halo 3 ODST? Is it like an expansion pack campaign for Halo 3 that they sold as a standalone game, w/ Halo 3's multiplayer included? Could you play MP with Halo 3 players?

Which is why PC CE was LATAM central for decade and a half

Halo CE was the only good one. 2 ruined the series and it never recovered.

how? 2 sets up 3 which was great and then the series effectively ends full circle in 3.
4 is completely disconnected from 2 and 5 is only related to 2 because of the arbiter who is nothing like the arbiter.

halo ce was the worst of the original trilogy

I have a love and hate relationship with Halo 2. I was 15 when the game originally came out in 2004 and I got up to the late 30's to early 40's in most of the modes (with exception of a few) but christ did that game have fucknig issues ranging from gameplay imbalances to cheating. I think around September 2005 is when I just all around stopped playing the game entirely due to the sheer amount of hackers that infested matchmaking which meant your rank would get brutally fucked if you lost (especially at higher ranks). It got so bad that hackers would have you spawn in a particular location and then use instant kill rifles on you. And let's not forget the early days of 2004 and early 2005 where people would use the standby glitch to autowin rounds.

Tell me more

The plot sucked for every halo game besides 1 because 1 was the only game that kept it simple. Halo being good was always about it having the best controls for any FPS game, that went away and then the series faded. Not saying the campaign missions stopped being good, but the story was garbage.

You know like all the other shooters at the time with good controls and bad campaigns.

Yes, a game that abruptly ends and literally does not have an ending is a flawed narrative and overall a failure of a game.

But ODST and Reach are shit.

better ending it there rather than carrying it on through nothing but duct-tape and glue like CE did

>Wraiths
How come the AI could use the side guns but not the player?

The entire series has a simple plot. Wtf are you talking about?

>game that abruptly ends
>does not have an ending
but it does though, the covenant is split, humanity and the elites allied and you saved the galaxy, the only thread that wasn't finished was literally one, and it was killing the last pope, two of which died in the game already

because fuck you

halo 2 and 3 were too complex for him to get.

it really doesn't as soon as they try to include the Covenant's side

>it really doesn't as soon as they try to include the Covenant's side
It introduces new characters and gives new perspective but it hardly makes the plot any more complicated.

>it really doesn't as soon as they try to include the Covenant's side
This that's why they removed that crap in Halo 3, made the game better for it.

CE is maximum comfy and I have nostalgia for. But fuck the campaign is actually very repetitive, 2 is much better.

the series truly never peaked, the original 3 are all classics that come with their own strengths and flaws.
And as flawed as 2 is, even more than 1 and 3 in some respects, it's the only one i'd call a masterpiece albeit a flawed one.

It was a small part of Halo 3.

It was boring as hell, his levels sucked ass too.

"Halo 2 had the worst multiplayer."

>This is what Halo 3 fans actually believe.

MP tier list: 2 > 1> 5 > 3 > 4 > Reach

SP: 1 > Reach ........... thats it.

it was underwhelming, Halo 3 had the best multiplayer.

it's the fourth cut scene involving the elites and their side of the war

Yes, and it doesn't drag on like Halo 2, Arbiter shit got cut in Halo 3 and he was made a side character for the most part.

Halo Reach is not the best Halo game, this is the same zoomer shit saying Pokemon Gen 5 is the best: it's just retards grasping the ~2010 game and holding it up as the best.

he had the best levels in halo only rivaled by chief's in the first half of halo 1.
You only dislike the levels because you don't like the arbiter

His levels were linear scripted shit with the worst version of the Flood and worst version of the Brutes, just long ass always that either blended in with his armor, blended in with the enemies, or was too dark to see shit. Let's not forget the clearly not playtested gondola section which is glitchy as hell.

ODST had the best campaign and nobody can tell me different

I agree. Really the series is great because of the source material and nothing else, it's the universe that makes it so good. Although props to them for actually visualizing it.

I agree, chief had shit missions in halo 2

it was one of the best, shame it's length is short.
Better than reach in almost every way

and 2 does more for the universe than all the games so thats part of why it's peoples favorite.

Slow movement speed, shit maps, no button glitches, awful equipment that further slowed the game down, trading melees/kills. I can bet you're a shitter who played nothing but Big Team Battle.

Chief wasn't the one holding Halo 2 back since his levels were more open-ended and less scripted. Arbiter was so bad that they removed his campaign from Halo 3.

I don't hate 2, but I honestly remember so little of any of it. When I played it I thought that it improved on many little things from the first game, but I can't remember what exactly. I just can't remember. I can't remember.

nope, all chief had was delta halo, meanwhile arbiter had quarantine zone, uprising, and the great journey.
And everything good about halo 2 came from the arbiter pleb, chief was sidelined in 2 to make room for an actual dynamic character tied to the themes of the story

E3 that year was maybe the most hyped I've ever been for a game, this campaign footage was great and the multiplayer gameplay seemed incredible too. The only other thing I possibly got as hype for was HL2, again with the pre-release gameplay. I wish I could be as enthusiastic about anything anymore.

Every level Chief had in Halo 2 shitted on Arbiter's it would have been better if they made that Arbiter shit a spin-off game.

yea that misleading gameplay footage was sure cool too!

Great opinion, even Bungie realized that by Halo 3.

you are that guy huh

This still pisses me off to this day, this and Halo 5, two peas in a pot filled with disappointment, Arbiter and Locke really should have been spin-off games.

More like to appease the screeching autists who hate added depth

they did that because 12 year olds thought the arbiter was shit because he had a personality

All of H2 is linear. In fact the only non-linear moment of the entire trilogy is the second half of the second level of CE.

This level was fun even before I found out turning on the thunderstorm skull turned all your allies into ultras (thus making then all sword elites).

he was literally the protagonist, god who beat you when you were 15 and told you empathy, depth, perspective. dynamic characters, world building and dichotomy was a bad thing

Halo 5 was shit but at least it had a story, Reach was the start of Destiny.

why did it choke him instead of infecting??

Your pal
Wheres he headed

He was the protagonist just like Locke and got pushed down the shitter just like Locke. Moral of the story is if you want to make another main character, make a spin-off.

not even the flood wanted that wrinkly bastard

it was a mercy

It is Halo, even with sprint.

Based. Reach had invasion and the campaign was kino, Reach has some of the best maps as well.

>he's so desperate he has stooped to comparing locke to arbiter
you forgetting the part where people like the arbiter and halo 2 was a critical and commercial success compared to captain hunt the truth, all exposition and no character nig

Anyone calling Halo 2, ODST, or Reach the best, they're contrarians, ignore them.

>Tip of the Spear promises the largest vehicle battle in the history of the franchise
>just kidding lol go fight some assholes on a ridge, maybe you can look down and see us having fun out in this desert plain once in a while

actually, now that I think about it, H2 does have a non-linear section with the banshee platform part, meaning chief's campaign is actually more linear than arby's

Arbiter wasn't liked until Halo 3 but as a side companion to Master Chief afterward, he was forgotten with Master Chief's popularity eclipsing his.

halo 2 is kino, reach is uninspired garbage

Just correcting you.

Agreed the Chief was very kino.

I don't see Chief's ass getting into killer instinct, boy

youtube.com/watch?v=AIxkQLaW0Ao&feature=youtu.be&t=10

That's what it was, gameplay is just cause of hardware limitations cuck boy

And it was boring a poorly designed too the Phamton also made it feel linear.

yeah, if only he was as kino as halo 2's lead character

Everything about arby in that game is absolute kino.

Killer Instinct wasn't huge.

God, I fucking hate Reach so much.

you realize you don't need to stay with the phantom

If he was so kino, why did he get shoved to the benches in Halo 3?

Then don't fucking advertise it as something that it isn't, dumbfuck
Just like they advertised the Sabre mission being more expansive than it really is
Or the campaign being actually good instead of bullshit

Too many reddit babbies who got a 360 for their birthday in 2007 screaming about 3 for those with more experience and refined taste to discuss the kino that is Halo 2.

No because it's the worst of the originals.

unironically this

So it's a reddit thing, I knew you faggots were being contrarian, this is also why you act like ODST and Reach were good because reddit doesn't like those, right? Pathetic.

stop replying to yourself we get it

ODST is good

reach is TRASH

i like how you have created this false narrative that contrarians like 2, odst, and reach.

Those are the only Bungie Halo games that got destroyed by the fanbase so yeah, I'm pretty sure it's contrarian.

you have failed to convince me, gaming is full of retards as always.

>reee why is my sequel different mommy I hate change :(

>Everybody who has a different opinion from me is only doing it to be a contrarian

Do tell, what is it like having brain damage?

This sounds like the same excuse a 343 shill would make.

You mean the worst in the original trilogy.

I don't know, you tell me?

I still can't believe they chose to bring back multiplayer for Reach of all things, instead of 2 or 3 for the MCC on steam. Do they hate money? Halo 2 or 3 online multiplayer being revived would be Fucking. Huge. People would lose their goddamn minds. They could have done it, it would have been easy. But no. Why?

>halo2sucks.com
the site was a cesspit of a bunch of faggots that couldn't cope with change. I'm sure you fitted right in.

don't talk about ce like that, it's a classic user

Don't be mad because everyone celled out Halo 2's problems back then.

Halo 2 is the worst of the original trilogy.

That's explained in the First Strike book. I forget though, because it's been like 15 years since I read that.

I'll give you a hint, it's not ce

Giving a response that an eight year old would have, have you even played a Halo game, kid?

take off those nostalgia goggles.

Basically that scene isn't actually canon, in reality is he survives as some sort of slave for a few weeks until he and the chief just happen to cross paths on their way home and basically just read the fucking books you pleb.
