why did 343 treat cortana like shit?
>muh Cortana
Hey Unc, shut the FUCK up and get on the point already

>>528614736>I still believe "The Endless" is just The Flood and the reason for everyone forgetting or thinking its some other species is just due to bad communication.I tend to forget that's a thought that floats around. Did give me a fun vision of the location of The Endless being found only for Flood to arrive from space, if not extra-galactic Flood puppeting species/tech from elsewhere.
If Endless are another species and can't be infected, Flood could devise ways of forcing them into fighting for them assuming they get to them first. Of course the biggest snag with all of this is assuming Halo Studios can pull of any potential option in a fun, reasonably-paced manner.
>>528629584What is the weapon on the right?

I hope the guy trying to shill that nonexistent CE remake crashes out.

What new types of vehicles would you like to see added to Halo?
>>528658629https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0dI092c4Mcg
This is /hg/.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKDkKKt9Y7I
>>528658260Did they have a bad reputation? I hope Cronos turns out well.
>>528658629I thought up and drew some vehicle concepts back before 4, working name was 'Stork'. Likely a cooler name out there that'd still fit the bill.
Full capability would be dropping its troop bay to unfold into a little, armed camp/blockade. More I could say but player-accessible functions would come down to playtesting.
Aside from that I'd just like to see a lot of Halo Wars vehicles/successors. So much fun potential and it seems someone(s) at 343 were intending to tap into it given some of those unfinished models.
>>528649894>>528650102Why was Reclaimer and Humans separate in the Halo 3 Bestiarum? How are Miranda and Johnson Reclaimers? Explain this to me.
>>528668370reminds me of mogadishu
>>528672992Read, nigga, read.
>>528674461What's the difference between the Master Chief from Miranda and Johnson if they're all Reclaimers, ignoring Chief's augmentations?

>>528650102Aren't you forgetting something?
That was 10 years ago...

>>528674856What makes Master Chief different from Miranda and Johnson was also implied in the video game saga.
MartyArmy bros... he's crashing his reputation with no survivors.
>>528676484Thank God the adults are in charge. The adults are paying attention.
>>528676481So, what makes him different?
>>528676968Not him, but he was lucky.
Anyone claiming otherwise is a 343i shill or Frankie.

>>528672992Read the book that came with Halo 3 and play the games.
>"B-b-bu-"Don't be afraid of text. Bungie made it. :)
>>528685517Why can't you just explain what makes Master Chief a different Reclaimer from Miranda and Johnson?
>>528685746I'll look up who wrote the Bestiarum and ask.
Never stop bullying sea lions mate.
>>528658225were you the one who got the voice actors and developers to sign your dino porn?
>>528687076More than once.
Had them sign my OC three times in a row at different cons.
Don't know who I hate more.
The furfag, the faggot or the bleacharound.

/hg/ is at its best when it speaks in Sangheli
why are furries and scalies so powerful? it's really fucking weird. it must be some sort of Jewish magic.
>>528689314Most furries/scales are just autists
Softcore furries like Red are better at blending in and whatnot
it's incredible what having zero shame enables you to do
I think I figured out the Bestiarum dilemma. In Bungie's lore Chief is a Reclaimer that has to be separated from the rest of humanity because he's special, the closest to the Forerunners while also being augmented, it's literally like he's a Forerunner in the current era. Humanity are Reclaimers but they're still just normal humans that can activate their old tech, Chief is something more. In Microsoft's Lore, Chief is the chosen one, the ultimate warrior created from a Thousand Lifetimes of Forerunner Planning until finally a successful Champion was made to succeed them and become the Protector of the Galaxy. Chief is the ultimate Reclaimer in Microsoft's lore vs some humans who are Reclaimers in their lore, and humans who aren't Reclaimers at all in their lore. The pitch of his Geas is also the strongest and also there are implications that Chief has connections to Living Time itself. Chief is the true Inheritor.
Hopefully, all of this makes sense now.
Welcome to my Halo General.

>>528713985I play CE nearly everyday. You can still play Halo with those powerups.
>>528714735I want them in new games, too. Halo 3 made the powerups soulless clones of each other.

>>528714962Physics objects, of course.

WOOOOOOB WOB WOB
EezComesDownDoDiddle
halo needs a fishing minigame where you go into lobbies and hang out with people and fish like in webfishing
I will be hosting a ODST lobby tomorrow. Firefight, 3rd person. Be there or be square.
i like sleeping to halo speedrunners on twitch because it reminds me of when i was a kid and I'd fall asleep to my friends playing halo at sleepovers
>>528735853there's third person?
>>52873587811-12 hours from now
>>528736049It was added a few years ago, is very barebones and a bit clunky but it gets the job done
Who is the Amuro Ray of Halo?
>Cortana was a woman who may have become a mother to me.
>>528738626What did he mean by this?
I'm VERY late to the party, but I heard Certain Affinity has been confirmed to be working on the next (multiplayer only) Halo game. Are they a good studio? I have no frame of reference for them. And what are /hg/'s thoughts on them working on it?
>>528740021They're a great studio, basixally the remnants of the Halo 2 Multipkayer Team, but they're smaller.
>>528740021So, pretty much:
>Halo CE campaign-only remake (Halos 2 and 3 campaign-only remakes as DLCs)>Halo MP-only live-service game>Halo Infinite campaign-only successor (Halo 7 but most likely won't be called "Halo 7" and won't directly start where Infinite left off)
>>528741026Infinite and Gears 5 storylines are not being continued in any games except maybe Halo Wars 3
>>528703898My apologies I was in hospital last night. I was going to float the idea of playing halodivers.
>>528740810Fuck I'm cumming!
>>528741026I'm guessing Halo Studios (343i) is working on "Halo 7" then? I wonder what the new leadership will do but I'm not holding my breath. From what I heard, the new leadership is as snarky and dense as 343. As for CE remake, I look forward to it if it's getting developed by a different studio.
>people still thinking infinite is getting a sequel
>>528742323Pierre was the guy who insisted shitfinite retain mobility garbage from halo 5. He's one of the 'our halo' gang.
>>528742323It'd probably be called an Infinite sequel for marketing purposes, but knowing the devs, they'll just throw away their previous work and start a new storyline for the millionth time with few references to Shitfinite just so they can say they didn't forget about it.
>>528741880It never was, Infinite's goal was to end the shit they put themselves in with Halo 5, it was always mean to end setting up a new adventure that could take place right after or sometime later without looking back since they're never going back to that Cortana storyline.
>>528742081I think Halo Studios is just leading the teams now since Microsoft gutted them.
>>528742323It won't be direct, but it will still technically be a successor since it takes place after Infinite. Those though expecting it to give a history lesson on the series are going to be disappointed.
>>528742081>>528742323Halo Studios doesn't really have the manpower to develop games anymore.
They're essentially a subsidiary of Xbox Game Studios that publishes the Halo games going forward. Actual devwork will be 90% contracted out.
>>528742970>I think Halo Studios is just leading the teams now since Microsoft gutted them.Ah. So just the middlemen. On one hand, I'm glad they're not working on Halo's dev work since they can't program for shit but on the other hand, they'll definitely want to strongarm their awful opinions in real developers' work and stifle their take on Halo.
>>528743075There won't be a main series game that takes place in the OG timeline after infinite.
Everything is going to be in the reboot timeline now.
>>528743171God, they suck at naming things.
>>528743221The timeline was already rebooted with Halo 4. They will remake Halo 1-3 fully, similarly to what happened with the first two 2D Metroid games and they will skip their games and make a game that takes place after Infinite. Bungie's and Microsoft's Halos never jived with each other. These remakes exist to fix that and be UE5 testbeds.
>>528743524Yes that makes sense. Make a sequel to Infinite fucking 14 years after it came out.
>>528743719They will treat the Banished as some enemy Chief and the UNSC has been fighting for a while, introduce the Endless without mentioning the Harbinger, and will introduce Offensive Bias as well. They will most likely just call the Weapon Cortana and treat the Pilot like Chief's personal Pelican pilot. It'll be a way to not confuse PlayStation players most likely. The remakes will probably make many references to the successor to set it up while the successor (Halo 7) will reference the remakes but not act as if you played them.
If the CE remake is a success, they are going to suddenly go "okay let's just make a sequel to a game not on playstation now". They'll fucking do a 2 remake next.
If it flops don't expect any Halo games until the late 2030's.
What's the phenomenon called when a once-great game title has been dead and has had nothing but failure after failure, finally makes a good game? It usually takes years for it to happen as well. Only examples I can think of are Sonic and maybe COD if you count MW2019.
>>528744098Devs getting their shit together?
>>528744497I guess lol. Although that implies it's the same devs finally learning their lessons, which is sadly not always the case.
>>528743524>The timeline was already rebooted with Halo 4.Eh... Not really? It was OOC but Halo 3 had already started fucking with things.
>They will remake Halo 1-3 fully, similarly to what happened with the first two 2D Metroid games and they will skip their games and make a game that takes place after Infinite.Nah, Infinite will be the last game in the old timeline.
>>528743964None of this will happen.
Infinite isn't getting a followup.
It's dead, Jim.
And to be honest, things were already beyond fucked after 5, so I'm fine with them giving up and starting over. Maybe they'll keep Humans as Forerunners this time.
>>528744098Only examples I can think of are Sonic and maybe COD if you count MW2019.
The only "good" sonic game in the last decade is Sonic Mania and even then it's more or less a glorified fan game. None of the 3D Boost-to-win garbage is good, and Frontiers is literally Sonic Infinite with an equally boring open world that looks eerily similar.
MW19 is also nothing special. People are nostalgic for Warzone because everyone was stuck inside and it was a fresh take on the Fortnite gimmick. The actual regular multiplayer was boring and the campaign was woke garbage. I'm tired of people pretending the linear apartment raid was cool. It has shit replayability.
As for Halo, we've been in a rut since Reach. And I don't even hate Reach, but it's still Reach. I shouldn't have to go into detail on what's wrong with it at this point.
>>528745736>Infinite isn't getting a followupWell...
>>528745668Bungie's lore
>Humans are ForerunnersMicrosoft's lore
>Humans and Forerunners are separate species with a common ancestryYes, anon, it was clearly rebooted. The only other timeline doesn't exist anymore because it flopped, lol.
>>528745736It is, this
>>528746203 already shows they're not dropping it. They would have already stopped talking about the Banished, stopped hinting at the Endless, and stopped hinting at Offensive Bias watching in their Canon Fodders if they weren't coming back to this already. The remakes will be used to reference the Banished, Endless, and Offensive Bias since they do technically exist during these periods.
>>528746590Bungie already started messing up the lore in Halo 3. You can try to pin it all on Muh Janny Boogyman but at the end of the day they greenlit it, and Reach is also a Bungie game.
>muh book followupThis is just the saving face and concluding yet another storyline off-screen. We've seen this from 343 for a decade now.
>>528746203kek
>>528746063Sonic was never good
CoD was also never good but people are forever nostalgic for the one they played the most when they were in high school, or maybe college if you went to college during the """golden age""" (CoD 4 - Black Ops 2)
>>528747910This.
Bungie is 2 of 4 (50%) on Halo storyline writing and I'm tired of people pretending they had a perfect track record.
3 and Reach have cinema endings, but the writing as a whole in both games pales in comparison to CE and 2.
>inb4 muh ODSTextremely mid
>>528748081Halo 2 is also poorly written.
People confuse world building for script writing and storyboarding.
Halo 2 has excellent world (or universe) building but an extremely contrived and rushed plot that literally doesn't even conclude properly. It just stops.
CE is the only game with a well paced plot.
>>528748175I've played through Halo 2 with countless friends and literally not a single one of them understands how the flood got to High Charity when I play through it with them.
I've had to explain it every time.
>>528748258The game doesn't do a good job of identifying In Amber Clad to the viewer/player. It gets namedropped quickly only a few times. For everyone else, it's just Miranda's Ship.
>>528747910>Bungie already started messing up the lore in Halo 3Here we go
Humans were Forerunners from 2001-2010, get over it. Halo was simple, there was no massive grander lore Bungie was setting up, everything was connected to Halo 1-3 and after Halo 3, humanity had no more wars and instead advanced in tech being left in peace.
>>528748386>Humans were Forerunners from 2001-2010, get over itYou're mindbroken. and wrong.
>>528748386>if I say it enough it will be true!H=F posters are literally autistic. I have sympathy for them, but this is just embarrassing.
>>528748431The only one mindbroken is you. Marcus Lehto was the one who said that Bungie and Microsoft have two completely different separate lores from one another, maybe you should stop getting your opinions on the matter from reddit.
>>528748386Halo Legends came out before Reach and was in production before ODST released. Cope.
Also, Bungie never cared about lore consistency anyways. They admitted as much when writing Reach.
>>528748524>r-reddit!Go back
>>528748493Bungie spent years saying both during the development of Halo and after they left. Face facts, it was retconned in 2011 when Microsoft got full control due to wanting to make the series their own.
All this because Halo 3 is poorly written.
Hopefully 3make will do better.
>>528748621it was retconned in 2007 with the release of Halo 3.
You're just in denial. I bet you call it the "Halo 1 magnum"
This thread is poorly written
>>528748493>H=F posters are literally autisticloretards in general are the worst posters.
Always have been. It doesn't matter of not whether they're "right", they're just schizos that obsess over the same thing.
>>528748551And did Bungie have anything to do with Halo Legends or was it 343?
>Bungie never cared about lore consistency anywaysBungie never cared about lore they didn't write, no one did, except autistic men who now think they're women.
Has that volunteer finished the Chiron remake in Halo 3 yet?
>>528748751>Bungie never cared about lore they didn't writeAgain, wrong.
They did care enough, but only to a point. They were inconsistent. Stop living in a world of extremes where everything is easily explainable. Things can be complicated anon.
>>528748621Nah, bookfags are just stupid, they always were
Tranzit is kind of like chiron tl34
>>528748751The problem with Bungie is they actually DID care and take notes on the EU shit, but only to a point. They would bend it around their plots constantly and warp it.
Reach would have been better off not considering Spartan 3s at all.
my favorite are the
>DID YOU GUYS KNOW TRUTH ACTUALLY KNEW THE RINGS WERE FALSE
fags.
That shit is so retarded, I'm glad Halo 3 completely ignored it.
>>528748845They were pretty consistent with the human/Forerunner connection. Stop taking Bungie's story so seriously, they didn't even take it seriously. It was very simple, unlike 343's.
>>528748986>They were pretty consistent with the human/Forerunner connection.through Halo 2, yeah.
Halo 3 on the other hand is very poorly written. You can find arguments for it either way. I prefer to see it as H=F but they really muddied it for no good reason.
>>528748903jiren would be a lot more fun if the teleporters were random like tranzit
>>528749069Is May a forerunner?
>>528748986I subscribe to humans being forerunners in all bungie games, but lol they were anything but consistent about it. Bungie is a hack dev and always were, Halo was lightning in a bottle.

>>528749170>Halo was lightning in a bottlethis is such horseshit
halo is the way it is because of how much thought went into things
jason jones made sure his guys understood why things were important
the reason the games got worse over time is because he couldn't talk to hundreds of people on an individual level
>>528749337>halo is the way it is because of how much thought went into thingsBro you have no idea what you're talking about.
Halo started as a fucking RTS lol.
Both CE and 2 were rushjobs that just ended up being good by chance.
>>528749330I am five of these.
>>528749379>Bro you have no idea what you're talking aboutif you choose to believe that, without any evidence btw, there's no point in talking to me about it and no point in me debating you
i would advise you go and do some actual research on the topic rather than parroting hear-say
>>528749337Nah, Bungie was an overambitious dev (and always have been, see Destiny and Marathon) and each time MS had to come in and pull the leash and then they had to scramble.
It's the reason CE has so much asset reuse
It's the reason 2 literally isn't finished
>>528749102>"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."

>>528749170I would say that Microsoft had something to do with it going to shit, they kill everything they touch and were known for doing this even outside of gaming.

>>528749337Agreed; people will do everything in their power to defend corporate Microsoft, it's unreal. You can blame Bungie post-Microsoft because Microsoft's corporate mindset never left Bungie and turned them into what they are today but to say it was all Bungie when Microsoft got into gaming to kill it is just lying to yourself and they know it.
>>528749597not really. Especially if you only include the arguments that back up what you're saying and leave out the rest, like the terminals. I'm not even against you, but saying "lalala I can't hear you" is just cringe, anon. The fact that the entire fanbase is still having this debate to this day proves it isn't handled well, regardless of what conclusion you arrive at.
Halo 3 is poorly written. Deal with it.

>>528749794The terminals also say humans are Forerunners though. Stop acting like you worked at Bungie, you never worked on shit so stop putting words in their mouths.

>>528750120Terminals just say that Forerunners are advanced humans that were taken away by some more advanced species and ended up finding their non-evolved selves on Earth, their planet of origin. That's it

>>528750283>Terminals just say that Forerunners are advanced humansAnon this is your headcanon OOC interpretation.
>>528750183See
>>528750283ex-Bungie devs said it, human not being Forerunner lore came from 343 and 343 alone. To deny that is to prove that you're a 343shill, nothing more.
>>528750283see
>>528750183Frankie ruined everything. He Saratoga 3's writing and then Saratoga the series' lore as a whole when he got control.
Stop trying to pretend he was ever on our side.
>>528750380>ex-Bungie devs said itNobody cares what some ex-dev tweets. The game itself is poorly written and muddies the water in an unnecessary way. Period.

Like bro, sure, I want that fixed too, but we have MUCH bigger problems.
>>528750602Blame Kojima.
He indoctrinated a generation of kids into playing games for story.
>>528750397Frankie didn't have the power to do that, dumb nuts, he only gained that power after Halo 3 when he joined Microsoft and could only use it in 2011. That's not how game development works, tranny.
>>528750481Keep coping, 343 retconned it when they took over.
>"I refuse to play Infinite on principle"
Is there a bigger type of faggot?
Halo Infinite 2
Developed by Platinum Games, directed by Tomonobu Itagaki
>>528750696Nah, Halo 3 fucked it up with terminals and bad writing in general
>schism is just over, hunters are bad againshit story.
Good ending tho.
>>528750696Why does this guy sound so insecure?
Like, I agree with his argument... I think? But he is acting like if he just says the same thing over and over and tells others to cope and gets the last word he will "win" or something.
Is this just lorefag autism?
>>528750602That's not the issue, the issue is trannies try to protect Micro$oft and 343, like the commies, they are, and pin their changes on Bungie. This argument would have died back in 2011 if 343shills would have been genuine about it. People would have accepted it and you wouldn't get autistic faggots of today wanting them to change it back.
>>528750924Lorefags are autistic, yes.
It's not about whether they're correct or not, it's how they present themselves that makes them cringe.
>>528750941>That's not the issue, the issue is trannies try to protect Micro$oft and 343Literally nobody is doing this except for Reach-a-shit posters, and they haven't woken up yet.

>>528750161Lightning in a bottle is too simple of a view anyway. Game design can change for so many reasons and did in Halo's case.
>RTS then TPS then Marcus got them thinking about FPS>MP is cool but only some of Bungie/MS sees the true potential>what's popular right now and should we try to top it or stand out?And all throughout Halo we got tons of games that tried to imitate some elements and slam them together with original ideas, poorly. Also, games that didn't even care about imitation and just did their own thing believing it could turn out good enough even if it was no Halo.
Take the same team but adjust things for a 2021 release date instead of 2001, you'd have something even better. And with all the reports from 343 employees about them trying to apply sound thinking from Bungie-era but being denied by higher-ups, it's plain to see both fans and devs want more of the good stuff in Halo, but they so often get overruled by people blinded by greed.
>>528790891Doom RPG was cool. The second one didn't pull me in the same way.
>>528791569Microsoft and their corporatism are a cancer to the video game industry. Suits don't belong in game development
>>528795176I remember people being surprised Sony/PS had so much to show recently, despite all the closures and cancellations prior to 'State of Play'. Granted, most of those games could turn out poorly even for what they are. But if they're turning things around I wonder if we're just stuck in a cycle of: success, got too cocky, reform to save the ship, repeat.
>>528795176Nah. You need strong pubs to keep devs in line. MS if anything hasnt interfered with 343 halo enough.
>>528795554The problem with Sony is that PC exist, there's no reason to get a PlayStation anymore just like Xbox.
>>528795946This isn't true at all, game development was fine before the 7th generation. Corporations get involved to snuff out creativity and innovation and push everything in one direction to make the most money. They copy others homework and hopes everything sticks. If their little project is successful, they kill everything else and put everyone on this one project. This is why AAA dying is a good thing.
>>528795946I do often wonder why Phil lets certain mistakes keep being repeated in a slightly different way, but on the other hand maybe he gets overruled by someone too. Still, it's odd that no one seems to have the talent to argue for a better vision over all. Dan had to argue for Forerunner structures looking more like Forerunner structures again.

>>528796508>This isn't true at all, game development was fine before the 7th generation.Lol no it wasn't, not at all actually, but that's besides the point.
The point is devs like Bungie go full masterz tier autismo with their ambitions if nobody is holding them to task and telling them to spend more time on the cutting room floor.
>Corporations get involved to snuff out creativity and innovation and push everything in one direction to make the most money.I see that gender studies degree is going to great work for you, comrad.
But no, it's not the evil monopoly man that's going out of his way to always ruin your games.
Regardless, again, I'm only talking within the context of Halo. Bungie spent two thirds of Halo 2's dev cycle buildinga. project that literally couldn't run on the platform they were building it for. They complained about being pushed to the deadline, but it was necessary. They were always best kept on a tight leash.
This isn't just true for gaming btw. Whoever is footing the bill always has an important role to play. Look at Star Wars. It was a tightrope walk between George Lucas' vision and 20th Century Fox constantly telling him "No George, Han Solo can't time travel" or "No George, we're not going literally shrink ray the characters down to meet the microscopic force inhibiting beings". You need the balance. Giving George too much control is what led to the prequel autism. Taking away George's vision is what led to the soulless sequels.
Again, this is just an example. You don't need to go on a Muh Stah Wahs rant now.
Halo was best when Microsoft pulled on Bungie's chain. Not after they became independent and shat out Reach.

How do you feel about game exclusivity?
i still havent found a valid reason why they named it halo infinite
>>528823094Pete Parsons, if Marty is to be believed. He talked about all this in the act man's interview
>>528823258>How do you feel about game exclusivity?exclusives haven't mattered for non-nintendo systems since gen 6
Bungie were completely free to develop Halo for any system they wanted to for at least Halo 1 and Halo 2, maybe Halo 3 as well but I'm not as sure on that. Microsoft guaranteed that freedom to Bungie when they acquired them. Peter Moore leaving removed a lot of the control other teams had though. We do know that. Just some history.

A lot of retarded misinformation itt...
Let's set the record straight. I've been with this franchise since day 1. I'm a somebody, you're a nobody. You're not even a real legit Halo fan. You just jumped off the bus from fortnite for this new re-release of Halo 3 on PC and now you're thinking "Oh My I'm A ReAl DeAl HaL0 FaN! I gEt A sEaT aT tHe TaBle! IvE g0t ThAt CeRtIfIeD bAdGe!" No you don't. You don't get a say about what this franchise shoild be and where it needs to go. You know who does? World Class Veteran Video Game Critic THE ONE BIG RED. You don't know anything about the nuts and bolts that have held this series together. You don't care about what real quality looks like. All you care anout is graphics, style, and presentation. I warned you fake Halo Infinite fans that this new Halo Infinite game by the scumbags at Mediocre Microsoft was not a traditional Halo game. Maybe that's why on their very own website the game isn't listed as a traditional game. It's listed as a "spirtual successor", and now the cracks are starting to show. IT'S OVER! It's time to shut it down! You fake Halo Infinite fans just don't get it. You are too busy slurping up the false advertising that Mediocre Microsoft is feeding you like hogs at a trough. This game is nothing but a shallow incarmation of what a true traditional Halo game is supposed to be. Keep in mind that Mediocre Microsoft was READY AND PREPARED to ship this game in the late months of 2020 just to sell more Xbox Series X consoles and only changed their mind at the LAST SECOND because the true traditional Halo fans stood UP and put their foot collectively DOWN, but now Mediocre Microsoft knows it can just sell a remake game to you fake fans instead. How does it feel to be a part of the loser's club? It must be incredibly sad.
But you fake Halo fans don't care.
You never have.
And you never will.
And you know why?
Because you're too busy going AHHAAAHAAAHAAAHAAAAHHHWOOLOOLOOLOOAHHHWOOLOOLOOLOOOHAHAHAHAHAOHMGEEEEEEE

They should shelf Jen Taylor and replace her with Jenna Ortega.
That'll get the zoomers to play Halo.
>>528824624>Microsoft did some good and helpful things then degraded>Microsoft did some good and helpful things amidst an over all bad track recordI feel one of these is a fair and accurate assessment of how things went. It's basically a closed case at this point that there used to be some top notch for Halo like Ed and Moore.
It's sadly just kind of the cycle: pioneers and OGs make something solid and then those who oversee it later often fail to show the same spine, passion and care.
Pretty sure Marty and Marcus have mentioned in interviews that without the reputation of experienced developers, 343 as a newbie studio did not really know how to speak out against odd decisions.
>>528825792this unironically
they needed a cute zoomer to play nutana
>>528825247They could have worked out a deal to make non-Halo games while still under Microsoft. Unfortunately Bungie's addicted to failure and pretending they can survive on their own.

>>528825831Without Blackley, Fries, or Moore there, that was never going to happen, Bungie were going to be in Halo hell because of infinite growth. If Bungie failed, Microsoft would gut them.
>>528826373What's wrong with your face?
>>528826154>what's the biggest key to losing weight quickly?Stop Eating.
Not entirely obviously, but if you can keep it under 1000 calories a day it will start to come off, especially if you're overweight.
Expect to get headaches though. Sometimes there are salts you can take that can alleviate them.
>>528825831Bungie split not long after Moore. We know from other teams Mattrick was immediately fucking with production. Bungie knew the direction Xbox was going in and forced a split.
>>528826154Ozempic and I'm not kidding.

What are your thoughts on Branching Sickness? I think it actually looks good from a visual and technical sense. No offense to other fan-made Halo games, but they often look unpolished or have a kitchen-sink art style problem.
>>528849059Okay, but where's the gameplay?
>>528849059Is there even any actual gameplay that includes shooting at enemies? All i see is that firing range video over and over again.
>>528849172>>528849208That's what I'm skeptical too. Visuals and sound design are badass, but the actual gameplay is critical. Even if they did finally show us a little gameplay, I still need to feel it for myself.
>>528849467It's vaporware until proven otherwise.
>>528849560That's fair. I hope the game delivers.

I completely understand the dislike for loadouts in match making. However why are people so against loadouts for custom games or specific modes? They do objectively open up custom game options. Infact you could allow individual player options for each loadout. You could even include vehicle spawns for loadouts.
For example you could have one team have heavy weapons and the other team have vehicle spawns, for a Spartan vs Vehicle game.
Today I will remind them.

>>528860465I love how several things that people hated in Halo 5 were just completely fine and a positive for Infinite.

Infinite is just balanced ">Aim Down Sights/Smart Scope? "Halo 5 is COD, Infinite is fine"Also dodge me with that NPC take about Infinite having a more unique and balanced sandbox.

>>528887047ODST should have more physics enabled objects. Staten has talked about how much time he personally spent placing trash bags and other small details around the overworld in that game, but all of them are static objects.
There could be a reason for that. From my experience with the Halo 3: Combat Evolved mod, halo 3 odst's ai simply cannot function the way it's intended with loads of space crates about. The pathfinding doesn't try to walk around them, they always box climb and get shot to shit. And because they move as a group, the whole squad ends up getting locked into the lengthy box climb animation.
Maybe they could've reset the ai back to halo 2 because the pathfinding worked perfectly fine in that game with the most havok objects the series has ever had.

>>528890060>That webmLooking back itโs weird how there was no nighttime level in Halo 3, the flashlight feature overall was barely utilized. The lighting engine in 3 is so good it feels kinda wasted. ODST obviously made up for this but the VISR is just not as aesthetic as the flashlight.
