Disgusting

Typical SWATfag.

>implying that isnt the problem
even an 5 year old can consistently head-shot with how fucking slow Halo is and the map design doesnt help with this at all. It might as well just be instagib with concrete sandals

>I Can't Aim For The Head: The Post

More like Gaylo.

The Hunt the Truth audio series got me really hyped for Halo 5, sucks that it was all just hype and the game didn't deliver on any of it.

Trailers better than final game thread?

So ready to be gaylo again

>This is what SWATfags actually believe
Landing headshots is piss easy. However I prefer my games to have more than one fucking weapon used in a sandbox with a mountain of guns and vehicles. You're literally reducing a stretch of content down to a FOX ONLY FINAL DESTINATION tier autism pool.

Halo Reach is a broken game. The people who developed Crackdown 2 are the ones responsible for porting it to PC.

The absolute state of you idiots, hyped for the port of a broken game. Fuck 343!

Jesus fucking Christ, way to shit on everyone's hype for MCC, they had the big announcement but they petrified the momentum.

Female Spartans have literally been a thing since the first books. Genetic manipulation combined with destroying their sexual functions pretty much makes male and female Spartan IIs completely identical beyond their voices.

Yes.

No, instead of just admitting that 343 fucked up with 4 and 5, she just tried blaming Microsoft and their higherups. She also glanced over the fact that 343 hired people who didn't even like Halo to make the games.

Man I wish Linda was player 2 in CE like this book hinted at. It probably would have stopped the need for feminism in gaming... and she's just cool af anyway

>book Linda
>classic Mark V armor, uses a sniper without a scope because she can just use her helmets visor-link software
>343i Linda
>5 retarded lenses slapped onto her ugly tan armor, two on her sniper
Should have just given her GUNGNIR.

>a book nobody read means that there's definitely female spartans, even though the games specifically state Master Chief is the last spartan
ok.jpg

Ehhh that sucks, still a "bit" more transparency than I'm used to. Bethesda and Bioware still refuse to admit they ever made a bad game

>even though the games specifically state Master Chief is the last spartan
lmao

The book came first and from the characters perspective Chief is the last spartan because they don't know the outcome for a battle they didn't witness.

to be fair, Linda was officially dead during the events of Pillar of Autumn being attacked during Halo: CE. The only reason she survived was that they found her cryostasis pod that was ejected before Pillar of Autumn landed on the Halo ring, and resuscitated her

343 even did a little nod to her by having her pod status next to Chief's in Halo CE:A

Even if Chief is the last spartan, which is never stated in the games, Reach is a prequel.

The book *literally* came before Halo: Combat Evolved. Not even joking. The Fall of Reach is widely accepted as absolute canon next to the games.

Sure you can argue about the authenticity of the lore and canon of the other books, but The Fall of Reach is the sole book that is 100% officially undeniably canon.

>Genetic manipulation combined with destroying their sexual functions pretty much makes male and female Spartan IIs completely identical beyond their voices.
Funny, I mentioned nothing about looks or appearance and yet your quote that materialised out of nothing states I did.

I'm quite clearly hinting at combat performance, dude.

>classic Mark V armor, uses a sniper without a scope because she can just use her helmets visor-link software
How does that work? Even mister chief needed to use the scope on the sniper rifle.

What do you mean how does that work? The helmet's targeting software does all the aiming, the scope is pointless and is only attached to the weapon in-game because marines are using it.

Fuck halo 5, the books have continued to maintain that Spartan IIs are strong faced baldies with semitransparent skin like a heroin addict.

They're pale because they get zero sun exposure. How is that not believable? They're in their suits for so long that I dread to imagine what the inside would smell like when they finally take it off.

Chief was in his suit for how long between the beginning of Halo 2 to the end of Halo 4?

Hmm, no I mean that that pic depicts Linda as a normal looking female when the books have always said even the females look practically alien to normal soldiers. Some Spartans even keep their helmets on because it helps them relate to the marines easier.

DMR SWAT is so fucked based, fek you

Probably never because Microsoft is now playing it smart and putting the money where it needs to be, the game development over the stupid lying advertisements.

Just to cover my ass, I really dislike Halo 5.
But am I the only one who actually enjoyed breakout?

same fag

youtube.com/watch?v=cmqirS2bNFU
take me back

breakout was the only good mode in Halo 5. A return to pure arena shooter style gameplay.

FUCK what they did with Warzone though.

Sorry I was too busy playing the superior game mode for people with exquisite taste - Invasion.

Attached: 1554299136314.jpg (2779x1696, 334K)

Actually a bit better, not sure why it's so domed though. It's like they wanted to just give her pilot or EVA but couldn't resist fucking it up a bit.

Oh thank god, I said this elsewhere and I got swarmed by retards.
I wish they kept it the way it was in beta, where we had clear squads of two on each team, felt fucking cool to be on teal squad with my bro, while cyan squad watched our backs.

Halo was always diversed, faggot. Don't expect any gays or trannies to show up in the game, 343 don't do that, also, if you think this means Locke and Osiris are returning, then you're also wrong, those fuck bags got shoved into the books and are never returning to the games. Halo Infinite is a Chief only game, Blue Team may not even make it in.

That was hilarious, glad she called Brian Reed and Josh Holmes on their bullshit.

It's a well fact that Microsoft fucked up their game development, just look how many games they canceled and studios they closed down this gen, what you gonna try to say Microsoft wasn't responsible for that. I didn't think Yea Forums would start sucking old Microsoft dick when they were cancer until Phil finally took over in 2017.

I'm 27 and I've been playing Halo ever since I bought Halo: Combat Evolved with an original Xbox back in 2002 (when it was released in Europe; it was 2001 in North America).

Face it, you nostalgia fags have no argument whatsoever. "WAHHH HALO 4 AND 5 ARE DIFFERENT FROM GAMES I PLAYED FIFTEEN YEARS AGO, WAHHHHHHH"

I mean how pathetic is that? If you want to play Halo 3 then go and play Halo 3, who the fuck do you think is stopping you? The old games are great but so are the new games. Thank God they brought Halo up to date and didn't just release the same game over and over like you manchildren seem to want. Christ that would have killed the franchise instantly.

Attached: brainlet.jpg (558x614, 18K)

apparently the total budget for halo infinite is half a billion dollars according to several sources. that includes development for the new slipspace engine, marketing and obviously the game development. we'll get high quality trailers without a doubt. everyone keeps forgetting that there's going to be a halo tv series on showtime so there's defo going to be some high quality trailer productions.

I think EVA would have been great. Although Scout is my favorite and she is a scout after all so I wish they just gave me that.

this really what you're gonna do with your entire Saturday man?

Glad the books never matter then, if a female Spartan isn't hot, she doesn't belong on the battlefield or games.

>s-s-samefag
Go the fuck back.

You ruined the other thread with your incessant shitposting, so please do everybody a favour and fuck off from this one.

Vale was based and wouldn't mind her returning, she holds a lot of the core features of halo. Locke though I would have liked to return but they really didn't use him well so he could fuck off like the rest. If Locke changed heart during the fight scene with the armor lockdown thingy I would have loved that.

You can't even argue a comparison between 343i's armor design and Bungie's. 343i seemed to think Halo was an anime or something because they made half their armor needlessly spiky and impractical. If you read Halo Reach's armor descriptions, all of them make a degree of sense. For instance one helmet (don't remember what it was called) said it was made to reduce the odds of decapitation, and the neck and chin armor was bulky to reflect that. Meanwhile, 343i armor will claim to "increase aggression" or some retarded shit, and it will reflect that by putting a giant spike on your head because that makes perfect sense and wouldn't slow down a warfighter at all.

Is this another circlejerk halo thread where everyone says Halo 4's campaign is terrible.

Or is this the thread with people that have actual good taste?

Attached: halo4_455371b.jpg (1200x714, 140K)

Spartans aren't quantifiable in a way like that, each one brings something different to the table. It's silly to even consider them male or female, they aren't even human anymore.

She was just some damn Elite bitch, if I wanted a Covenant Encyclopedia I would just go to Halopedia.

No one reads your gay ass books, glad Bungie and 343i ignore them for the most part because even they no parts of them were shit.

Reach flighting this month

>Infinite is a soft reboot, mainly a gameplay/mechanics reboot that gets rid of armor abilities but keeps sprint
>campaign is made with sprint in mind
>sprint functions in gametypes that support more players in a map as once such as BTB
>smaller 4v4 and 2v2 gametypes as well as lone wolves however does not have sprint
>these smaller maps are also designed to work without sprint in mind while bigger maps are designed with it in mind
>armor abilities must go since they are more cancerous in actuality

What you guys think? They are going to at least keep some things left over from their Halo games and I would suspect they keep sprint so lets be realistic here.

Halo 4's campaign was okay-ish. Not awful but not great. There were too many things that brought the campaign down
>The entirety of Spartan-IV's
>Sarah Palmer
>Captain Del Rio
>too many FUCKING Prometheans, literally zero enemy variation outside the first 2-3 levels
>Final boss fight being a fucking QTE

However I can recognize Halo 4 brought some good concepts to the table:
>deep dive into the Forerunners and extended Lore
>excellent Master Chief and Cortana moments
>Chief faced with morality, questioning his beliefs -- becoming more human than just another cog in the machine like a robot
>Requiem is fucking amazing to explore
>Focus on Dr Halsey, finally

Unfortunately Halo 5 takes everything good about Halo 4 and completely throws all that out the window and essentially "reboots" the series for no fucking reason instead of building upon what Halo 4 introduced

Halo 4 was alright.
Halo 5 was absolute dogshit.

I'm not him but I'm in favor of bookshit stying out of the games.

Of course you guys like the bitch, she's all you, Xenophile faggots that want to hump a fucking alien.

Reach's trailer has a very cool premise in the first half, but gets more and more retarded at the end. Noble 6 just using a jet pack to get into the Covenant ship with no resistance. It's like the script writers for the commercial couldn't think of a good conclusion.

ehhhhhhhhhhhh im the same age and have played halo just as long.

h2a is literally what halo 4 should have been.

but i will admit halo 5 multiplayer is actually fun. it just needs a few tweaks. remove sprint and thruster charge. rest can stay desu even the ads system

but in the end the original trilogy shits on the new series and 5 has an unforgivable single player
