ex....exclusives.... please....
You know what this place needs? More sand.
now that the sand has settled, can we admit that Halo was never good?
yes
Next flight WHEN?
Ah you mean the next flight that will once again be exclusive to youtubers and other "e-celebs"?
But I'm a nobody and I got into the last flight.
Where is Reach?
Tommorow
substantiate your claims
>being this young
Sorry user but 2 exists
The Epsilon Eridani system.
my dad works for xbox
Why not use this time and re-read the Halo books? That's what I'm doing.
Fall of Reach is still the GOAT, up to Contact Harvest right now
MORE sand?
either a contrarian boomer or a retarded zoomer. die
Next flight is pvp but only on xbox, but the guy who writes the blogs said pc will get a firefight rerun soon
People actually read video game tie-in books? Damn, can't think of anything trashier than that. Maybe anime tie-ins.
snoys can't make anything original
the first one was the only good one anyway
time to switch franchise OP and stop relying on sequels
2 was the worst of the original trilogy.
THREADLY REMINDER:
>Sprint doesn't belong in Halo

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Lots of completely based, and lots of absolutely wrong opinions.
2fag or Reachnigger?
everything in this post is factual and true
This
I liked reach though, I never played these games competitively and it's the one with Invasion mode
Invasion is so good. Thank God it isn't getting TU settings. Only issue is that it'll only be playable in the ranked playlist.
No, those are both opinions I agree with.
3 was best Campaign.
Library was dogshite.

Nothing else matters, literally.
CE is objectively the best campaign. The enemy engagement design, map flow, weapon sandbox and mixture of linearity and non linearity puts it a cut above the rest.
I'll give you 3's campaign above 2, at least it's balanced, not a pretentious clusterfuck and has a conclusion, but MUH SETPIECES stitched together is infinitely less engaging and replayable that the non linear multiple points of engagement of CE. Halo 2 and 3 are all about leading the player into epic moments and setpieces, CE are actual LEVELS in the classical sense of the word.
The Library is the perfect combat level, pure gauntlet. The Flood were explicitly designed to be engaged that way, a literal flood of enemies, and it's just you VS them with a tub of guns. The Library on Legendary is just perfect. Even better with Famine if you play on CEA (original graphics)
Why are these guys the worst fags in the community?
It's ready when it's ready.
3's campaign was incredibly boring compared to the other two games. The first couple missions are a slog to get through and I usually lose interest by the time you get to the Ark. The Brutes aren't a good replacement for the Elites either.
Retards like this make me cringe. The video game doesn't matter. Just play what you enjoy. What you enjoy matters. Cringe!
Star Citizen will release first
Look how they massacred my girls in Gears 5.
It's not an artstyle I want to see again but I always thought the aesthetic was one of the things that aged best for Reach. Hopefully MCC will let you turn off that awful motion blur though
I agree with you.
Go back to /hg/ faggot, 2 has the worst campaign in the trilogy.
2fags are an incredibly specific kind of autist that wants Halo to be something its not. They are either enormously into lorefaggotry, specifically the Covenant, and they want Halo to have this huge deep meaning to it rather than based space boy and his purple girlfriend killing aliens to save the universe, OR they are competitive autists who see the terrible glitches of the multiplayer as features and want to turn Halo into fighting game autism. A lot of them are closeted Halo 5 apologists, because they like how sweaty that game is, despite not being Halo.
Reachfags are usually just fake fans who latch onto the last one with Bungie on the box, some of them are CoDtards who want that Halo of Duty experience. A lot of them either had it as their first game, or returned to Halo the first time since CE and got sucked in by the pistol being viable again and the time period it is set.
ouch
It's insane how contrarian you have to be to hate Reach. I only ever see one complaint against it which is is armor abilities, but then nothing else and yet all this fake outrage to fit in.
see
and fuck off, reachnigger.
Negative Ass
What are the top tier Halo books?
How can anyone be this wrong
You know what this map needs? More sand.
2 cubic tons
Kat and Emile were shit characters so who gives a fuck.
I never said 3 was a worse campaign than 2 you stupid cunt, learn to read.
>campaign is incredibly boring compared to the first two games
You actually kind of did
But the books I mentioned are all the games, not the novels, and they're made by the devs themselves, not some stupid author that puts their ideals in the universe.
Anything made by the devs.
>Ugliest artstyle of the OT by far
>Pretentious clusterfuck of a campaign with two unfocused narratives and no conclusion
>Completely unbalanced enemy engagement
>Glitches fucked the multiplayer sandbox completely
It's still a real Halo game for a couple of great levels, the best maps in the series and the fact that it IS still fun despite how messy it is. But it's not CE or 3.
Would be pretty cool if we got a new Sandtrap with Red Faction style destruction elements for the sand
>just dust and echoes
we're not getting Reach this year are we
Who IS Dustin Echos anyway? Was this explained in the expanded fiction?
How can one man be so based?
>But the books I mentioned are all the games, not the novels, and they're made by the devs themselves, not some stupid author that puts their ideals in the universe.
He worked with Bungie on it.
Mighty fine hat
>You know what this map needs?
youtu.be
Yeah, him and Sgt. Johnson and a couple other guys survive on the last Pelican, it's detailed in the book First Strike.
My brother
Reach was almost as colorful as 3 what were you smoking?
>>Fucked armor progression
Getting credits by playing what you want was good though.
>>Fucked equal starts with loadouts and armor abilities
Customizable and not forced so anybody could set rules for games to disable armor abilities and give equal starts. Literally a nitpick of having options and implying it was the rule.
>>Fucked map design with modular player speed and verticality
Fuck off, maps with verticality are great, and Halo 4 was the actually the game designed around sprint.
>>Fucked the lore by contradicting the best story in the franchise
In game canon overwrites external canon, this has been the rule forever.
>creating the genesis of the 343fag
A bungie game did not create 343 drones, that's retarded. "CODification" was just a buzzword at the time on Yea Forums for any popular fps.
>>Fucked with the accuracy of weapons, creating a slot machine in every engagement
Another retard that doesn't understand what weapon bloom is and that previous Halo games had it, even though the reticle wouldn't change.
>>Smeared film grain and blur effects
Granted, again, the color was fine and bloom wasn't as bad as people want to pretend it was.
But you did.
Ad there are still issues with it, he didn't work closely with Bungie on it because Bungie didn't want the books to exist.
>t. Reachnigger
Not him but fuck off.
Source for your bullshit?
Reach is worse than the trilogy but it's still a good Halo game and miles better than what 343 could shit out even if they had 1000 years.
You guys joke but I remember some faggot literally making a fanfiction about "Dustin Echoes." Pretty sure it was some dude called Saber Scorpion.
*And
>Reach was almost as colorful as 3 what were you smoking?
Smoking facts. You would know this is the general consensus if you've been in the community long enough. Watch anybody playing Halo Reach on PC right now and they all comment on how washed out it looks. Fact.
>Getting credits by playing what you want was good though.
Nope. Feat based unlocks meant every piece of armor meant you did something specifically. Each and every armor piece was a specific achievement. EXP grind just means you played a bunch or longer, nothing to differentiate gear from another besides tiers of expense.
>Customizable and not forced so anybody could set rules for games to disable armor abilities and give equal starts. Literally a nitpick of having options and implying it was the rule.
Not in matchmaking. This wasn't a custom games only issue.
1/2
>Fuck off, maps with verticality are great, and Halo 4 was the actually the game designed around sprint.
Maps with verticality ARE great, that's why jetpack ruined map design. Modular verticality meant map designers had to account for extreme verticality at the touch of a button.... but not for all players. Extremely limiting for designers and most just took the option to cordon off verticality altogether. They introduced the kill timer to compensate.
>In game canon overwrites external canon, this has been the rule forever.
Exactly, and the overwrote a far better story for a shitty contractual obligation that nobody cared enough to put effort into.
>A bungie game did not create 343 drones, that's retarded. "CODification" was just a buzzword at the time on Yea Forums for any popular fps.
It muddied the definition of what IS and ISN'T Halo. It set the precedent for Halo 4's changes and has CONSISTENTLY been the thorn in the side of anyone arguing for classic Halo to return. CODification is very real, if you remember at the time, Halo was losing to COD, and the artstyle change and class system was created to market to these people. Halo Reach even got a more CODlike control scheme option.
>Another retard that doesn't understand what weapon bloom is and that previous Halo games had it, even though the reticle wouldn't change.
Another retard who doesn't understand that Reticle bloom is not the same as bullet patterns and that previously autoaim corrected for this, and in Reach it does not. Reach fucked with aiming, end of story.
>Granted, again, the color was fine and bloom wasn't as bad as people want to pretend it was.
Wrong and Wrong, see above.
2/2
>halo went from being one of the biggest franchises ever to nobody caring about it anymore in about 5 years time
What the fuck went wrong?
Reach was garbage on both the campaign and multiplayer, stop acting like a Bungie faggot, no one but Reachniggers and 343shills like Reach.
Sprint was a welcome addition. Halo's base movement speed was always frustratingly slow on larger maps. Jetpacks are cool too.
Sprint is an illusion and doesn't make you go faster, the maps are stretched to compensate. For that FALSE feeling of speed, you introduce the inability to fire weapons while at top speed, something you can do in sprintless Halo. You've been duped, and you don't understand Halo.
>343shills like Reach
Do you realize how retarded that sounds?
This
People still care about it but it's no longer normie central.
Are you retarded, Halo 4 is essentially Reach 2.0, Reach started the CODification of Halo, Halo 4 continued it, Halo 5 tries to break away from it but parts of it are still there, Halo 4, 5, and even Infinite built off of Reach. nuHalo fans first Halo experience was Reach, kill yourself for thinking otherwise, Reachnig.
>Agree with my opinion or you are brainlet drone
>Oh fuck we're losing to Call of Duty we need to try and pivot to their audience
*Loses players*
>Oh fuck, well the players complaining about sprint and whatnot must be an angry minority because our focus groups say differently, we'll just release a Master Chief game and everything will be fine
*Loses players*
>OH FUCK they weren't lying, and now the COD fanboys have left for good... We have to listen to the classic players. Who yells the loudest.... 2 MLG fanboys? Alright let's appeal to them and try and keep it modernized so we don't lose 4's base
*Loses players*
>OH FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-
You are here.
Yep. See:
Top speed is increased significantly and sprint is meant to be used for moving from place to place. Halo isn't Quake, so it wouldn't make sense to have players shooting and moving at sanic speeds at the same time.
>U don't get Halo
Bitch I've been playing Halo for almost two decades.
CoD: MW was ludicrously successful because babbies loved calling in air strikes and other games started copying it. The original Halo trilogy ended and 343 took over, fucking everything up.
I don't think it would have been possible for Halo to maintain its popularity. Lots of casuals switched to CoD for the above mentioned reasons and nowadays rampant MTX and overpowered killstreak/ability bullshit is the norm in FPS.
CE has neither the best story nor the best campaign.
Bungie wanted Halo to be completely stand-alone
There is NO argument for keeping sprint. Sprint does nothing but introduce randomness into a game for an illusion.
Do you have any idea how much "two cubic tons" of sand is?
I can vouch for I'm hoping you'll get in the next one though.
youtube.com
Educate yourself.
Yeah, let's forget how Bungie started this shit with their little Destiny experiments after Halo 3.
Bungie making Halo CE-3 as good as they were was an accident.
>tfw long time Halo fan
>Most of Halo 2's writing and lore fleshing out was done by Joseph Staten, who alongside Eric Nylund, basically invented the entirety of Halo lore: Fall of Reach, First Strike, Ghosts of Onyx, Contact Harvest and Shadow of Intent
>see the canon be destroyed and raped into a ditch by 343i
>Greg Bear's The Forerunner trilogy set up all that great lore then 343 pissed it away. The Librarian cut scene itself is a good example. Rather then just gradually introducing that information, it dumps it on the player and the explanation they give for what a Geas is is so poor it's no wonder people wrongly think John-117 is a chosen one
>Karen Traviss completely butchered her trilogy. Makes sense why Halo 4's and 5's story is so bad considering the Traviss books lead into 4 and 5. Dealing with the aftermath of the war is super fucking interesting. Unfortunately it's just a vehicle for retconning shit from halo 2-3 and setting up halo 4.
>She has super genius Dr Halsey, the Mother of the S-II program, think it would be a great idea to get into an argument with, and draw a gun on a S-III with the intent to threaten and/or possibly actually shoot the S-III.
>343i has the UNSC bounce back in less then 10 years and comes up with like 4 series of brand new galactic threats to deal with, because they need to justify conflict somehow.
>343i have been trying to replace Master Chief since Halo 4. Palmer was the first candidate and she failed, Locke was the second attempt and failed. Fireteam Osiris screamed "diversity team with an old face plastered on to force people to like them"
>Frank O'Connor or Frankie, is literally a member of Resetera and regularly posts tons of self-hating anti-white garbage. Frankie also confirms he wrote most of the story and script for Halo: Reach
>tfw can at least take pleasure in the fact that no matter where the series goes it can't be as bad as GOT and Star Wars
Halo Infinite is gonna be Microsoft’s answer to Fortnite. Unfortunately they don’t know what to do with the IP since Bungie left. Halo 5 was suppose to be a big esports arena shooter thing, and now Infinite is going big open world maps with 100 players. Microsoft is like a flag in the wind reacting to the slightest breeze.
Who cares. We got working Halo trilogy on PC, they can fuck off and die now. Mods will keep me playing good Halo forever.
>implying they're ever going to release it
>Unfortunately they don’t know what to do with the IP since Bungie left. Halo 5 was suppose to be a big esports arena shooter thing, and now Infinite is going big open world maps with 100 players. Microsoft is like a flag in the wind reacting to the slightest breeze.
What about Halo 4?
Halo 5 was garbage made by the D team. That says nothing about sprint itself.
>Halo 5 again
See above. I am not going to watch the whole 20 minute video, but most of his complaints seem to be about map design, which is a separate issue. Sprint is a compromise that became a thing because people playing on consoles could not handle the kind of movement that PC arena shooters had. If Halo had more complex movement mechanics and an increased movement speed then I wouldn't consider sprint a necessary addition.
CoD: MW came out 2 months after Halo 3, retard. How the fuck did Bungie "start" anything when MW was already on the market before they began working on their next game?
>sand has settled,
You mean Call of Halo: Please guys we're lorefags too?
>MY specific brand of Sprint has never been tried!
Dropped. You have nothing. Sprint is objectively a gimping mechanic that only belongs in tag you're it shooters like CoD.
This
why they fuck did they get picked?
Fall of Reach.

What has happened
Sprint isnt good in CoD either, pistol runing was perfectly fine and the sprint manages to be slower than just holding a pistol anyway
>Halo's base movement speed was always frustratingly slow on larger maps
if only there was a jeep or something that facilitated faster movement around the map or something
So sprint has never been good, but Halo should have sprint. Galaxy brain opinions there, idiot.
>End game on a sequel hook.
>Had no plans for a sequel until MS said so
I would have been so fucking mad.
Zoom zoom
I'm not defending sprint, just trying to contradict false claims
I hate to break it to you, but you've not done either.
>the lore
Fuck the lore, it's a been a problem since day 1. Who takes the time off to read that shit when you can just play the games, also, Joe ruined the Covenant.
>Fun arcade fps. Multiplayer was designed around the basis of focused, balanced fun.
Why 343i change it?
If you don't care how did it ruin them?
see
so you think Sprint works in CoD? Because it doesnt and CoD was better before its introduction
I wasn't describing sprint, dumbass. I was talking about movement systems like Quake's where you progressively gain speed instead of just being able to launch yourself from 0-60 at the press of a button. Problem is that you can't do that shit when you're catering to console players.
Sprint is the best option we have and it's not going away.
>have 8 players on your team
>warthog seats 3
I guess the other 5 can call a taxi or something.
>CoD: MW came out 2 months after Halo 3
No, it didn't you dumb fuck, that was COD4.
>Halo 5 was garbage made by the D team. That says nothing about sprint itself.
Halo 5 was made by the main FPS team at 343i, you stupid nigger.
Females ruin things.
I once had the Gears of War 1 Xbox 360 Steel box collectors edition and it came with an art book. On the very last page of the art book was a picture of the entire Epic Games team, around 2-3 dozen people or so, and I remember they were all males except for 1 person, but most importantly, every single one of them looked like they were passionate about their job and loved video games.
I also had the Gears 3 collectors set, and it had the same kind of art book with a updated picture of Epic Games and at least 40% of the team were fat females who looked like they would never play a Gears of War game.
And that was back in 2011.
Imagine what Epic Games looks like now?
Because they're shit characters, we finally get to rip them to pieces since Reach didn't let us do it.
There's no way that Bungie, a team known for making sequels to literally every one of their past games (minus random shit like GNOP), would not have made a sequel to Halo after its massive success even if Microsoft hadn't bought them.
>No, it didn't you dumb fuck, that was COD4.
Yeah, Call of Duty 4: MODERN WARFARE
>Halo 5 was made by the main FPS team at 343i
343 is the fucking D team. They are a pale imitation of Bungie.
>deflecting from sprint conversation because Halo can't be Quake.
Not an argument. Halo never needed modular speed, it was the biggest console FPS and the king of it's time without it.
>It's not going away
then I will not buy their games, and I will continue to badmouth them in every available channel. They don't want to listen to fans? Fine, bye.
Um dude wtf bros I hate women now.... hold on joining a discord to help stop fight the female menace
What do the classic players want? Halo 3 2.0?
In Halo CE, they were just evil aliens that wanted to wipeout humanity and conquer the galaxy, in Halo 2, they humanized them.

>a banshee

honestly if you have to uber you ass to the fight you fucked up somewhere.
Bungie were shit and made Halo CE-3 good by accident.
>adding depth ruins things
even ignoring that they still shoot at you for gameplay, so again, why do you care?
This opinion is a strange combo of boomer and zoomer. You have all of these made up lies about how Halo supposedly ruined the FPS genre and retards that have never played it eat them up.
Jason Jones wanted to make Destiny.
Did you know that the original plan for the Halo 2 multiplayer wasn't even what we ended up with, they wanted to do a Halo 5 Warzone like mode?
Max Hoberman had to argue to get the normal multiplayer mode in. Bungie didn't really take it seriously though, they all nicknamed Max's version of multiplayer "party game".
Max Hoberman was the lead Multiplayer designer on Halo 2 and Halo 3. Max Hoberman is MVP of H2 multiplayer. He and his team designed the whole thing in the crunch time of h2 release like map dual wielding, design and all that stuff. (Although, he left Bungie 9 months before shipping). He is the head of Certain Affinity, a studio that did map packs for Halo 2, 3, Reach, 4 and the maps for Halo 2: Anniversary's multiplayer. They also co-created Halowaypoint with 343i.
Max and his team kept working on the multiplayer while everything else fell apart. The people working on Warzone ended up getting nowhere so Bungie decided by dump it and make Max's multiplayer mode the main multiplayer.
Basically, the only reason the multiplayer turned out fine was because Max and his team kept on working while the rest of the studio was in a crisis.
youtube.com
It's funny because Bungie originally hated The Fall of Reach and ODSTs because they weren't the ones to come up idea but later on they ended up making games about both of them.

>FEMALE BAD
>MALES GOOD!!!!
Yes.
Essentially. Halo 3 as the base, fix the netcode, fix the weapon sandbox to be more balanced and with less fluff, more useful fun. Better Forge, New maps, new gametypes, a better campaign that is a bit more challenging and with a stronger narrative, more consistent hit registration, firefight or other enhanced modes, etc etc.
Basically, you know, a fucking sequel?
Halo 2 was a scripted linear corridor mess because of it, thus it's the worst campaign in the original trilogy.
Look at Halo 2 Anniversary, basically that.
Yeah this honestly.
It would need some work because as is it's basically a H4 mod but its a great starting point.
>Not an argument.
I was addressing the dude's statements in the video. Why would you post a link to the video if you haven't watched it?
>I won't buy it!
Pic rel.
Or one of your brilliant team mates just took the hog by himself and drove off with it.
This, but unironically.
Smarter than you because he's not bitching about walking.
More like the Halo 4 that should have happened.
>Halo is doing fine without you!
Lmao you are so far out of the loop you're embarrassing.
Yup, just like classic Metroid fans that want Super Metroid 2.0, they seriously need to move on in life.
cringe
Halo Infinite will sell well and these guys will continue to bitch.
>NO NO NO YOU CAN'T JUST WANT A SEQUEL TO A GAME YOU LIKE THAT DOESN'T COMPLETELY CHANGE THE ENTIRE DESIGN PHILOSOPHY YOU CAN'T!
kek
>c-c-cringe
I guess you want me to say "have sex" or some stupid shit like that right?
Halo Infinite will continue the downward trend, leading to the decline of Xbox as a brand for another generation and we'll be there to say I told you so.
I think the industry moving away from expansion packs was a mistake. Now if you want to make more [game] it has to be "bigger" "better" and "different".
Yeah, is that why Gears 5 surpassed Fortnite as the most played, so what other failed series you going to whore yourself out to when Halo Infinite does well like every other mainline numbered Halo game before it?
Infinite will be a disaster.
t. every major release 343 has been involved with
>Implying I play that shitty TPS
>Implying i'm buying an Xbox next gen if H:I has sprint
Keep telling yourself that, campaign is already sounding better than Halo 2, ODST, Reach, Halo 4, and Halo 5.
>arguing about Xbox sales figures
The shills are here boys. Remember, no sprint.
>Yeah, is that why Gears 5 surpassed Fortnite as the most played
hahahahahahahahahahah
You were never going to buy the Xbox Scarlett, to begin with. It doesn't need you, Halo doesn't need you.
There are two kinds of people who dislike Halo
>Unreal or Quake purists who religiously despise any sort of FPS on console
>Sonyfags
Which one are you?
Ah yes.
That thing we know nothing about because we have 2 trailers to go off of, neither with gameplay.
Yes of course.
No
Keep telling yourself that 343 employee. Think you can survive one more disaster? Let's roll the dice and find out.
Best story but by far worst level design (of the Bungie games) and encounter design. I really didn't enjoy it.
>It muddied the definition of what IS and ISN'T Halo.
There was never a definition because the rules were always rewritten.
CE, 2, 3. Done. EZ GG, No Re.
Halo fixed Quake and blended it with Half-Life so it was good for a time.
CE might as well be a completely separate IP for how differently it plays.
Halo 5 is the best MP FPS of the gen :)
faggot
This place has become a joke, have many times has Yea Forums been wrong? I stopped taking you seriously years ago. Can't wait for PS5 to crash and burn and PC to become irrelevant again when Microsoft pulls their games off PC.
Yeah, but that's not saying much.
>when Microsoft pulls their games off PC.
NOOOOoooooo
Titanfall 2 and Rising Storm 2 are better
You know nothing because you don't look it up, Halo and Metroid fans look up the development of their games.
lol nope
Dude I don't love 2 either but i'ts by far the best plot in the series, followed by CE and Reach
lol yes
Not at all.
>Can't wait for PS5 to crash and burn and PC to become irrelevant again when Microsoft pulls their games off PC.
I'm dying
They should be making both expansions and spin-offs.
Half of CE barely even has a plot at all though, was 3's really that bad?
Yes at all. Halo 2 casualized the fuck out of the series in every way.
State your arguments.
This but unironically, it's very polished in one way or another.
It's not as hectic as Titanfall where everything shaking with your HUD blowing up with WORDS WORDS WORDS but it's not as 'slow'-paced as something like Fortnite or Apex Legends where there are long bouts of nothing but collecting and running shit.
Titanfall is dead bro. Also nowhere near the amount of gametype selection or forge mode lmao.
Imagine if 343 actually listened to the fans this time. We might get the first real Halo game in over 10 years.
Reminder, both Halo 4 and Halo 5 outsold Reach's lifetime sales ad Reachnigs never got over it.
>spinoff got BTFO by mainline
who would have thought?
All of those games are shit so it doesn't matter.
This, can't wait for Infinite.
>I'm dying
You will be
There are plenty of people how like and defend nu-Halo. If they "listened to the fans" they would have to make some unholy abomination that would please nobody.
I said fans.
It's really well balanced but I just don't enjoy the gameplay. I'd much rather play more unbalanced games with more fun things to do. If you're an arenafag 5 is Halo kino but I'm not trying to break into e-sports so no thank you.
*who
I don't really give a shit if nuhalo fans leave.
I know it's in vogue to bash on nu-Halo but the people that defend what Halo 5 does better are not unfounded in their claims.
You're about to get BTFOd.
>what Halo 5 does better
such as
Being a well-rounded mp arena shooter than its contemporaries.
>does better
nothing. Different is the word, but not better.
It has microtransactions
no other halo game gonna do that!
Weapons were homogenized because of dual wielding.
Many less powerups on maps. MAYBE you get 1 Camo OR OS on a map, but it's not guaranteed.
Player spawns made practically random. You don't have direct control over them anymore.
Weapons don't respawn if someone is holding the old one, leading to stalemates where someone hogs and empty weapon for minutes on end.
Grenades can explode when not touching the ground, but this isn't a big deal because they're more like hacky sacks with how they fly through the air and drop like rocks. They also don't launch weapons anymore.
Aliens have human motivations because retards can't understand that something which evolved outside of our solar system wouldn't act like us.
No health packs because it's too hard. :(
Aim assist cranked up tenfold so even children can play.
TTK nearly doubled because people thought being punished for running out in the middle of Blood Gulch was bad.

IMAGINE the shitstorm if they fuck us again.
it really was, there had to be like 6 people that pulled all the strings to make it happen and the rest were blissfully unaware of the greatness
Halo CE is a fun space opera with a lot of mistery and atmosphere. The story is very simple and there are no character arcs, but it's fun.
3 had a good story but it felt like a stretched out ending to Halo 2. Very little happens, same as CE but for the final chapter in the trilogy that was set after Halo 2 was a bit disappointing.
I'm not that familiar with Halo 5 MP, but if I remember correctly its primary focus is that weird microtransaction based conquest-like mode. Not very arena to me.
the foundation of halo multiplayer should be established in the vein of Halo 1-3 yes. Why do you think Halo Online was pure bliss for the few weeks it had over 400 players? It was basically Halo 3 Custom Edition
oh we're definitely going to get fucked again, it's just a matter of how. Will it be due to incompetence or ignorance?
4v4 got more than enough attention.
Malice.
No that's just a side mode, arena still was the main attraction
funnily enough its also mostly dead and filled with people who just want to base camp.
I hope all of your assholes are lubed up and stretched out in expectation.
It's solid but it's not overwhelmingly great and it's 343 trying to fix whatever the fuck Halo 4's MP was.
Getting a team of 12 and spawncamping to complete challenges was the best way to get unlocks.
You won't have to imagine for long, don't worry
I know there's a reason for it, it still also completely ruined what little interest warzone offered.
Halo 5 broke me. I'm not even cautiously optimistic. I'm actively expecting bullshit.
Halo 5 MP definitely has a higher skill ceiling than past Halos.
No, we cant. 5 is complete shit yeah, Reach too, a bit. I love all the other games, so no, we cant agree. We can however agree that OP is a faggot yet again
Oh it's going to happen and it will be glorious to watch.
There's a reason the MCC has been getting so much attention and it isn't because 343/microsoft had a change of heart about shitting it out the way they did.
Playing "Tag you're it" with options to run away doesn't make it more skillful, just more sweaty.
Use the pistol and crouch up and down as fast as you can
"skill"
that describes CE too
Thanks for the confirmation of your newfaggotry.
Stop reminding me... Im really unsure if I should even get the next Xboy for Infinity. After 4 I had hopes that it was going in the right direction, but all of a sudden Cortana was alive again, and evil too. The new MC and his fucktoy team felt awful too save for Buck, I remember laughing in disbelief when Locke beat Chief of all people in close quarter combat. 5 felt so wrong as a game, as a sequel to 4 and most importantly as a halo game. I dont even know where they could possibly proceed with the story, the only possible way for it to get back on track with the story started with 3s ending and 4s story would be to completely ignore 5s events. But we all know thats not going to happen.
Why would you get the next xbox user? Halo's been *at the very least* on a downward spiral since 343 took over and it's the only thing worth buying an xbox for.
MCC will be on PC, just invest in that.
>post ywf THAT happened
>Halo 2? best game in the series
I already have a pc, no need to buy one. Already have MCC for the Xone, too. Thanks for the concern tho, this is more about the new title. Cant believe I will actually wait for reactions in the forums and then decide whether to get it or not.

How did Halo go from being a console babby training wheels FPS straight to an outdated boomer relic? When was the transitional period where it was just normal?
Her ass was never like the one on the left.
>mfw Bungie wanted to snuff out The Fall of Reach
>mfw they wanted to ditch Halo CE
>They also wanted to wrap the franchise up at Halo 2 as well
Fuck 'em and their half-baked abomination of looter shooter. A pox upon the piece of shit studio and their brittle spirit for the massive turd that was Destiny 1.
>343shills like Reach
That's not true.
It was never a baby first FPS, PCshits and Quakeniggers just never understood the design principles.
Because it was the best "console babby training wheels FPS".
It wasn't the first of its kind but it was inspired and combined several elements from different IPs to define itself among giants.
I'LL INVENT THOSE BLUEPRINTS
Whats with this anti-bungie shilling on Yea Forums recently?
Is it 343tranny history revisionists trying to smear bungie and classic halo as always having been shit so we will me more likely to accept the 343 abominations ?

>I mean he's not even really hitting, just pushing him a bit
>doing anything
Like holy fuck chief shouldn't even have moved. This fuck survived a fucking crash landing from space.
Some nigger ok'd that horrible fucking scene
nice "depressed" art hoe image.
ACKSHUALLY, Chief was armored locked when he survived the fall from space, which is what inspired the armor ability.
>Shitting on Bungie's terrible choices =/ swallowing the dick of 343's disgusting turds
I hate them both, you massive sperglord. Can you not hold such a primitive notion that if a person hates one thing, they must love the other? Goddamn imbecile, they're both turds that don't know how to handle Halo properly.
I was saying to myself "fuck i should mention that his armor is locked because otherwise some smartpants will get on my ass for that" and here we go.
It's no less impressive, faggot. And you know that it's still 200% bullshit. Now fuck off nerd
why did you post a picture of your mother?
Post yfw you didn't fall for xbone after Halo 4 and MCC cemented your resolve
If they couldnt then how did they make 3 games that defined a generation?
im sure youre just parroting some other retard from another thread anyway, what a brave yet retarded opinions you have.
>Thinking being this much of a jaded fuck makes you seem sophisticated
Like, fuck. Chief just went whatever terminal velocity of a Spartan is in the atmosphere to zero in no time. You can armor lock whatever you want, shit should be fatal. When you get to those levels of sci-fi power level, you can't just show him drunkenly fight a fucking spartan IV later.
Halo Reach has not, nor will ever be classic Halo.
Has Bungo done anything that wasn't a re-hash of Marathon?
All this while implying that Activision was the bad guy.
>anti-bungie
Bungo has not made a good game since ODST. They've scammed their fanbase and Activision, promised that they had a 10-year story but didn't even managed to make a single good Destiny story. Now they've left Activision, got bought by a Chinese company, went F2P and they're removing content and activities from D2 while recycling the loot from the previous expansion.
How is that "anti-Bungie" and pro-343?
Considering his suit has thrusters it's doable
neither has 2 and 3.
He crash landed. The Mark VI didn't had any thrusters anyway, zoomer.
PvZ: GW is.
Keep seething, autist.
>The Mark VI didn't had any thrusters

>MARTY O’DONNELL
>It was early 2003 and Jason said that the “Phoenix” team was demoralized. But he’d promised these guys that they would have a game, so he went over to be their creative director and project lead. There were probably 15 people on this team. Joe and I took him out to lunch and said, “Jason, you can’t do this. You cannot leave the Halo 2 team.”
>I told him: “This is the most important project Bungie has. I told you that you were going to get bored working on a sequel, but you convinced me you were going to hang in there, and put all your energy behind this.” He’s like, “Oh, I can do both!” Like he could run the “Phoenix” team and once a week check back in on Halo 2. Joe and I begged him, told him that wouldn’t work. And he did it anyway.
Why did Jason Jones hate Halo?
cope 3bab, it it werent for 3 reach wouldnt be so shit
>3bab
I accept your concession.
Nice cherry picking buddy. I'm sure some shitty ass micro-thrusters will do the trick to brake that kind of fall.
Yeah, like I’ve been BTFO every other time by Yea Forums? Yea Forums don’t do the BTFOing, I do.
2 isnt any better, 3 is just more fleshed out with shit.
CE is the only halo game.
What went wrong?
>Has Bungo done anything that wasn't a re-hash of Marathon?
Halo 2?
If you want to go by canon Chief uses them in halo 4 to stop a near terminal velocity fall without armorlock.

Yeah, I heard you the first time, you lost all the way back in 2004. Enjoy your fringe opinion.

You don’t really need any of the books besides Fall of Reach (2010 reprint) and Contact Harvest
They look like lumbering retards and end up being nothing more than bulletsponges. Running around with a SAW and melting them was the only fun part
Now Activision forced their hand and made them Destiny house
I CAN'T TAKE THIS SHIT NO MORE MAN
you sound like an idiot
>not just reading the first 4 books, the actually good ones
Tbh I really liked 4. It would have been interesting to see a halo game completely without Cortana. Didact seemed like an intriguing villaim, too. I always thought that the concept of the flood, going by Graveminds statements in the games, the terminals in 3 and the bestiary manual from 3 just scratched the surface of the parasite and its abilities. It could have made for a good villain. Instead we now have Cortana and AI bullshit. 5 completely broke me, I wont play Infinity.
I miss those guys.
Oh hey, it's the rapist goons from Studio FOW
Never played the game but are the flood and the covenants all gone now?
no
There might actually be a shooting at their studio if it's that bad
Pretty much, it's why they hate Halo CE-3. Microsoft is getting Bungie back by loving Halo CE-3 and hating ODST and Reach.
Nowhere, you don't fit the criteria
>People who dislike Halo
Why did 343i add this?
>dude angry skull faces lmao
Fall of Reach is still my favorite. Forerunner Saga comes in close. I also really liked Broken Circle and First Strike
lol the fuck so 5 is a side story?
It's very true.
It was always there, it started with Halo 2 but since, at the time, we didn't have the inside scoop of what was going on at Bungie we loved them, we thought ODST and Reach was them not caring anymore, we never knew they were borderline retarded into everything finally came out.
Not him but I already explained, by accident.
Yeah 5 is irrelevant now more than ever. Halo Wars 2 brought back the Flood, Infinite brought back the Covenant with a new leader and soft rebooted the plotline/story.
>It would have been interesting to see a halo game completely without Cortana
I agree. It was a mistake to bring her back. This new trilogy should've been about the Chief having to deal with that loss and learning to become human and make new friends with the crew of the Infinity. Also Halsey should've stayed with 'Mdama. The Didact could've come back too at the same time as the Flood.
>since ODST
You mean since Halo 3.
>Try and join a gears 5 lobby
>Its named "whens halo infinite"
Yes and no.
kek
>we
hilarious.
Ok
Oh, so you knew everything that was going on inside Bungie studios from 2001-2010?
Fall of Reach
Ghosts of Onyx
Cryptum
Silent Storm was also surprisingly good, felt like one of the Dietz/Nylund book.
Halo 4 campaign was decent, the multiplayer was absolute trash. When they retconned Halo 4 I lost all faith in them (whatever was left after MCC)
They didn't retcon Halo 4. Frank retconned Brian's shit story in Halo 5 by making Halo 5 Cortana an evil fragment.
imagine thinking quake needed fixing, or that blending it with a shitty movie game is fixing it.
So where the Sangheili women at?
it was the opposite.
4's campaign is shit with no redeeming qualities but the MP is at least fun for 10 hours or so.
>They didn't retcon Halo 4
Halo 4 doesn't even exist anymore, what the fuck are you talking about.
>This installation was built to study and contain the Flood. My makers wisely understood that without this knowledge they would be helpless to defeat them. I am glad that some survived to reproduce! [when speaking to Master Chief]

>You asked me once, if it were my choice, would I do it? Having had considerable time to ponder your query, my answer has not changed. The Flood must be destroyed. The Rings must be activated. [when speaking to Master Chief]
>[Your pal... Where's he going?] Earth. To finish what was started. And this time, NONE of you will be left behind! [when speaking to Master Chief]
>Your forefathers wisely set aside their compassion. Steeled themselves for what needed to be done. I see now why they left you behind... You were weak, and gods must be strong! [when speaking to Sgt. Johnson]
>You are the child of my makers, inheritor of all they left behind! You ARE Forerunner! But this ring is mine! [when speaking to Master Chief]
>FOR EONS I HAVE WATCHED. LISTENED TO YOU MISINTERPRET. THIS GLYPH IS NOT "RECLAMATION." IT IS "RECLAIMER." AND THOSE IT REPRESENTS ARE MY MAKERS. I SERVE THE MAKERS. I WILL MAKE AMENDS FOR MY BIAS AND BRING THEM SAFELY TO THE ARK [referring to the luminary glyphs on Harvest]
In the end, what did Bungie mean by this?
You're a retard
Nice argument
>Fall of Reach film
A man can dream can't he?
>Infinite brought back the Covenant with a new leader and soft rebooted the plotline/story
Wait what?
This is all retarded.
The Flood and the Covenant were defeated at the end of 3.
I haven't been keeping up with halo lore, what happened to arbiter?
Shouldn't he be dealing with this?
ONI is funding the nu-covenant forces in secret in order to keep the elites weak while the UNSC rebuilds
When is Halo Reach coming to MCC? I know Xbox One because of dated hardware BUT I DON'T CARE just release it for Xbone X and PC and FUCK the original Xbone.
Agreed
Luckily, the dudebros died with this crummy franchise.
Read about the book "The Jesus Incident". Bungie pretty much stole it's story verbatim
Soon
Halo 2 was good.
My brother, our only hope can be that Halo 6 completely ignores Halo 5 but im not sure if thats going to happen
>tried to make Cortana turn evil in CE
>Halo 5 is about Cortana turning evil
>tried to make Miranda and the UNSC betray Chief in Halo 2
>Halo 4 they ditch him on Requiem, Halo 5 they send ONI assassins after him with the whole #Hunt4TheTruth ad campaign built around Locke vs Chief
I honestly wouldn't be surprised if Jason was behind the 3 terminals.

Because he was a retard.

A lot of Bungie guys came to Halo OD, what's going on?
Halo is the one thing I will seethe about till the end of time. I had literally all consoles except xbox so I never played Halo.
what the fuck is that?
If you had someone to play splitscreen with, CE through to Reach were a fucking blast. That's a full decade of couch fun.
Halo 4 Flood that was used for infection
meh, bloodborne is better than every halo combined anyways
meh,
God, the 2013 guardian looked next to perfect. They have the most shittiest managers and artists at 343

Too many floaty pieces and sharp edges
Gimme pic or
Why did they get rid of this design, this reminds me of the Knights.
>not fun to fight
- teleportation stalling
- spawns extra fliers which revive and further stall by flying away when shot
- generally harmless unless in melee range where they can 1 hit kill blink strike

- enemy does not react to being shot in interesting ways, vanishes in orange light instead of rag-dolling
- enemy can't speak english, just screeches

- le epic grinning skull face of doughy 343 nu-Doom artstation designers
- generic vaguely insectiod robot design interchangeable with games like Destiny, ME: Andromeda, Artifact

But Halo: First Strike came out way before 4 did.
I got the MCC today but my Xbone S arrive until next Tuesday. Fuck
Bros......
I have mixed feelings about sprint but the library will forever be a shitty level. Gotta agree with you on halo 2 playing it just feels like a janky early build for halo 3
The actual fall of reach is the weakest part of the book it's mostly space combat . Only real highlight is when chief and a few others Spartans fight covenant on that space station. Everything else goes unmentioned
It's been awhile since I've read it but dont they go down to the planet to protect some generators?

Bungie were so close to being perfect, then they had to make Reach.
True, but 343 is also at, if not more fault for doubling down on nearly everything people hated about reach.
everything
>Keeping elites weak
>Couldn't even take out Rtas
You probably never read even the shittiest books, where ONI tried to somehow kill off an entire race by attacking a single world.
Oh 100%. 343 is an actual garbage company.They act as if they know what the community wants, but then never actually listen to the community. I'm praiyng that they do Infinite right, but looking at their track record, we all know that is most likely not going to happen.

Why, they almost killed the series with ODST and Reach and their Destiny series is even worse.
What part of Halo CE-3 were accidents do you not understand?
>Accidents happening three times in a row
Fuck off nigger
No one wants the same fucking game, literally, every 2D Metroid and FPS Halo is different.
Ghosts of Onyx > Fall of Reach
The bungie that made the trilogy isn't the bungie that made reach, and they're a far cry from the bungie that made destiny. They're just a name now, like most AAA studios.
The first two happened due to strict deadlines.
Deadlines make a game good? I guess yearly releases should be praised
You know, it canonically makes sense. In Halo 3 MP, everyone is a Spartan II. Average running speed is very fast. In Halo 5, "Spartans" are basically volunteer augmented ODSTs with mass produced armor that's a jack of all trades master of none. Those fuckers have to full on sprint to match Spartan IIs being able to run and gun without loss of any mobility.
Yes, that's literally the case, Bungie was that fucking retarded, Xbox Game Studios, like 6 people at Bungie, time constraints, and hardware limitations kept their stupid asses in line, the moment they left Microsoft they make the two worst Halo games in the series (ODST, and Reach) and then they make the pile of ass and shit that is Destiny. Bungie's a fucking joke who still to this day has shit management.
When Bungie doesn't have enough time to do what they truly want, they can make a half decent game.
It's the same fucking Bungie, it wasn't the whole team that made Halo CE-3 great it was a select few, strict deadlines, and hardware limitations, that's it.
Odst and reach were still contractually obligated, do you even know what you're talking about?
In Bungie's case, yes.
That's the most hairbrained opinion I've ever heard on bungie
Halo 3 was too yet that had the same amount of heart, love, and soul that the first two games had, gee, I wonder why.
>It's the same bungie
>Key bungie people say the studio was falling apart after 3

Why is your ugly spawn crying over the best entry in the series?

Knowing Mexicans it's probably crying because it finally saved up enough pesos selling hats to get a 360 and the servers are dead
But they've supported Halo5 with plenty of content throughout this gen. I'm happy MS doesn't make my pony up my cash every 6 months :)
>CE, 2, 3, and Reach exist
nope
Why do people post this webm in response to sprint? Do they realize this webm only shows comparisons between Halo 3 and Halo 5? You do remember that Halo 4 and Halo Reach exist right? Halo 5 is soi milk erra of games, that game shouldn't even be considered for comparisons between games, it so shit. Halo Reach sprint did indeed increase movement speed, it wasn't an illusion. The base movement speed was also untouched, it wasn't nerfed to accommodate sprint. Halo 4, I don't remember that well since its been too long since I played it.
I wish you quit yours, Bungie dicksucker.
True yet those key Bungie people were the only ones making sure the other retards didn't fuck up.

Why not Marathon 3?

>The final boss is a fucking QTE, for fuck's sake.
isn't that most AAA game nowaday?
2 may have flaws, but I'll be damned if it wasn't the most fun multiplayer shooter ever made. Those maps/game modes are fucking unmatched by any other game in the genre.
The webm is comparing map design more than anything else. You're definitely moving faster in Halo 5, the difference is that the maps are all elongated to make up for that. 5's Midship remake is way bigger than 3's, that's the comparison.
The maps are definitely stretched in Reach as well, there just isn't a map to compare it with.
Bullshit her ass is just as fat in Gears 5.
t. someone who plays exclusively as Kat
You're retarded, Rech has the slowest base movement speed in the series, Bungie did this because of Armor Abilities.
*Reach
That is a retarded non sequitor

Were you playing and watching UT and Quake back then?
Halo is basically what happens if you took elements in that game, polished it to a fine degree and then balanced it for the noob to compete in the environment with a vet without being completely shat on.
That's why the two former games were kill, because Halo actually improved on them in a fresh new market.
Enjoy your (you) faggot. You probably never got your samurai armor did you?
what polish?
less maps, less weapons, less control, smaller maps, less possibilites.
Oh, I remember that

Every Bungie era Halo game is good, including Wars.
Destiny 1 is good and Forsaken made 2 good enough to justify getting in late and cheap.
Every 343 developed Halo game has been detrimental to Halo as a brand and reduced the quality of the gameplay, either by being a worse clone of older games or a completely different, mediocre game.
Locke was nowhere close to Arbiter and Buck can't carry the weight of 3 worthless fireteam members.
They butchered Blue Team.
The only canon Halo lore is Bungie lore.
Humanity is the Forerunner Race.

Only Halo CE-3 were good.
>Destiny 1 is good and Forsaken made 2 good enough to justify getting in late and cheap.
Destiny is shit, you fucking Bungie faggot.
>Every 343 developed Halo game has been detrimental to Halo as a brand and reduced the quality of the gameplay, either by being a worse clone of older games or a completely different, mediocre game
Halo 4 and 5 are good but don't come close to Halo CE-3.
>Locke was nowhere close to Arbiter and Buck can't carry the weight of 3 worthless fireteam members.
They all suck.
>They butchered Blue Team.
Who gives a fuck, they shouldn't have never been added to the games in the firs place, no one knows who the fuck they are, only a lorefag would know them.
>The only canon Halo lore is Bungie lore.
Bungie couldn' even say consistent with their own canon.
>Humanity is the Forerunner Race.
Kill yourself, Soul.
More like I'm approaching 30 and don't enjoy playing games that expect me to have made 1,000 hour time commitments back when I was 15 if I want a chance to even participate, let alone play.
Quake's a lot like chess - I'm sure if you're played either for decades, and you had a steady stream of people around your level to train up with since childhood, it's a fine game.
For everyone else, save yourself the time and either play something fun instead, or do something more productive with your life, such as seeking out a life partner, learning a musical instrument, or shitting in a bucket in your backyard (All of them are about as productive as dropping 1,000 hours grinding rocketjump rollouts).
This slide. There are videos that go into better detail if you want to search it.

>Destiny 1 is good and Forsaken made 2 good enough to justify getting in late and cheap
This is the only thing you're wrong about
I realized I was playing a kids' game
and adults' games are?
I've never noticed the little arms on the Promethean Knight.
>Humanity is the Forerunner Race
No, that would be really lame.
Halo fans don't like armor abilities fag. You're the reason why Halo is bad today.
Based
Kill yourself, you damn Reach faggot.
You're no better than the 343 cocksuckers that ruin these threads. At least they're consistent and stand by their shitty games and formula. Reachniggers are legitimate retards though and through.
historical speaking this is a fact
This is all true but I still like Reach.
I hate Reachniggers so much.
It's not just these two franchises. Everything in the west went to shit. Every franchise, every development team.
Pretty much.
until they start proving the opposite, this will remain true
hopefully we'll replace them with lab tubes soon enough. nobody would want them.

can't come soon enough
t. I don't actually like halo so here's my shit opinion where I act superior and sound self assured
You're just an asshat. Go fuck yourself lol
tl;dr

I am still angry that i payed money for Destiny. The worst game I bought this generation
2 > Reach > 3 = CE >>> everything else

Before I go to bed.
3 > CE > 2 > 4 > 5 > everything else in terms of campaign
