You are here

>>11927156 (OP)
It's bad visually but gameplay wise it's really fun.

>>11927156 (OP)
Keyes is worse. The Library's biggest fault for me is that it just goes on too long. If they removed the final floor, the pacing would be better.

>>11927162
>remaking CE in UE5
so a minimum 110gb install with aislop frame genning and dogshit "AI". great.

>>11927668
Even Jason Jones said they shouldn't have shipped The Library. CE is a great game overall, but let's not delude ourselves into thinking that some of the later levels aren't trash (they are).

>>11928028
Not even.

>>11928094
>The Library is hardcore
No it isn't. It's just an exercise in tedium. I'd say I probably die on Library on Legendary less often than I die on Pillar of Autumn. It's not hard or mentally engaging, it's the definition of padding. It's just waves of identical enemies in the same fucking blue hallways from beginning to end. The real salt in the wound is Guilty Reddit constantly saying "just two more doors in this area~!" or whatever the fuck he says, tricking you into thinking "oh thank fuck, it's going to be over in a few minutes", and guess what: it isn't. Door after door after door after fucking door, a few elevators, a few more doors, a few rooms where you're locked in and have to do some gay Smash TV shit for a set amount of time, then more fucking doors, and then finally God decides you've suffered enough and you get back to the actual game. The funny part is, every single time I play, I try to convince myself that the level isn't as bad as I remember, that it'll be over quick, that when Guilty Spark says "last door bro" that he really means it, and every single time I realize I was retarded for ever doubting my initial reaction. Library apologists are diseased. Imagine playing 10/10 kino like Halo and Silent Cartographer and then defending that pile of complete fucking lumpy diarrheic AIDs-covered gorilla shit. Fuck you.

>>11927156 (OP)
Library is fun.

>>11927162
So sad. So we’re getting a remake of CE confirmed? So we have the original and we also have two different releases of the remaster that also lets you play w og graphics, and so this will be the 4th release technically? I mean doesn’t that just signal that 343/halo studios desperation like marvel bringing back Downey Jr as Doctor Doom. Just seems sad.

Anyway on topic, actually like the library I get what they were going for and coop it’s fun as fuck on legendary. It was like they were pulling a stage right out of serious Sam.

Bots have been here for a long time and are only getting worse. They will never do anything about it because a higher post frequency makes it easier to sell ads. Ignoring longwinded redditspaced posts, template threads, and posts with exclamation marks is a good first step, but with enough dedication they can be hard to completely filter out

>>11928203
>bro the endless blue corridors with nothing but flood with all of two viable weapons and a reddit robot humming was the same as le heckin beach with nearly every enemy and weapon in the game and a diverse range of environments and non-linear paths through the level
Why did you wake up today and decide to be a retarded fag?

>>11927159
It's a better game than the shit that is pic related. OP this is shit board for retro games irs just for nintendo crap, post it on /v/ anon

>>11928180
The Library is fun if you already like Halo combat, because that's all it is. And it's the only time in the series where you can feel truly overwhelmed.

Thats not the level where you board the ship for first time and then gang raped from 4 sides
It was pain for me on legendary

>>11928698
Grenade thrown into every door, charged plasma pistol shots, free aim sniper rifle, keep moving and always keep your back facing a wall.

Any sewer level
Why do devs add filler sewer levels? Is it some kind of joke to troll the players?

>>11928741
One reason is to simulate the player travelling a large distance without having to detail the overworld, e.g. a city. Sewer textures all look the same.

>>11928110
didn't read

Why are the flood so weak? The balloons should be higher impact or more numerous. Also, all the enemies everywhere should respawn so you're forced to play the game properly instead of cheesing it.

>>11928750
I’d rather just be forced to fast travel than have to endure a sewer level

>>11928762
Not sure what you're getting at, in what way do people cheese it? Staying in one corner and shooting at incoming waves?

>>11928850
Nat On Legendary you can split screen it yourself slowly moving up 2nd player but keeping them back far enough so they don’t get attacked while you respawn. You can cheese it w a buddy too.

>>11927156 (OP)
Chemical Plant zone's Act 2 is awful.
The level is confusing and unfair, platforms are glitchy (Sonic gets crushed literally by thin air), the underwater section is a meme, etc.

Nowadays I can beat it easily, but as a kid I despised that act with a passion, especially because the rest of the game is really good.

>>11927156 (OP)
The Library isn't that hard. It's a bit tedious and drawn out but manageable when you know that it's the only level in the game where the pistol won't carry you because it doesn't do effective crowd control, and it's better to carry the assault rifle or plasma rifle and shotgun.

>>11928894
You can also just not do that.

>>11928946
I will not disagree but aesthetically speaking those are my favorites from all Sonic games.

>>11928953
He was asking how can it be cheesed and I was explaining it.

>>11927257
no one on /vr/ likes halo and if you were here pre election tourism you'd know it was shit talked relentlessly

>>11928741
Second this, they're always my least favorite levels.

>>11929347
i like Halo. it's fun trying to find sequence breaks :-)

Two betrayals was the worst for me, horribly boring slog with nothing to do. At least with the Library, Keyes, and Maw you mostly spend your time killing. Even then, it did have some night atmosphere.

>>11928946
>level is mostly linear
>there's barely any enemies and none of them pose a thread
>idk what you're talking about with the glitch platforms you fucking liar
>the water section is only hard if you're a braindead child and can be skipped all together
>boss can be killed before he even attacks

>>11929397
People seem to have selective memory with CE, they ignore missions in their entirety and boil down them to a handful of sequences. "It's the same room", "it's grey hallways", "it's purple hallways", "there's nothing to do", all comes off as revisionism to me because this was never the rhetoric for years. It always felt well paced to me because it was a game I could always spend hours playing.

>>11929616
Just because you saw a youtuber playthrough of the game, doesn't mean you know what you're talking about

Here's the glitch: https://youtu.be/yle3FJsk5XU
It can happen extremely easy and the game glitches like fuck with a lot of platforming in this level, you even get stuck in loops pretty consistently

>>11929639
The rhetoric for years was that halo was a gay baby game for toddlers. I don't give a shit about that.
Yes Two Betrayals is boring as fuck to me with way less combat encounters in what was already the most repetitive map (AOTCR). I enjoy CE overall so I regularly replay it and the last time I played two betrayals was about 2 months ago, and it was the worst part of the experience for me.

>>11929639
It sounds condemning in internet forum posts but levels like the library are short and fun with some decent challenges. If they're long to you, you're dying too much.

>>11929676
my autistic ass has played through sonic 2 at least three times a week every week in the last year. yeah. no shit you'll die if you stand and get crushed like a retard. i'll admit it's buggy and i can't deny that getting stuck in the loops in this act specifically but the classic sonic games are full of jank that clips your momentum going down slopes (i'm looking at you, hydrocity zone act 1 right before the extra life platform near the beginning). if you're looking for shitass jank in sonic 2 then just finish this act and look at aquatic ruins for half a second.

>>11927521
you just have bad taste

>>11927162
You forgot how Xbox is now pretty much self destructing

>>11929678
>The rhetoric for years was that halo was a gay baby game for toddlers.
nah, only salty gen Xers pushed this narrative because they were seething that arena shooters were basically put to rest with halo

>>11929678
>The rhetoric for years was that halo was a gay baby game for toddlers.
Yeah the world was totally shaped in this rhetoric, sure.

>>11929639
I thought it was well-established for decades that Combat Evolved has far and away the best campaign.

>>11929747
same niggas seething at the based prequels to this day

Getting jumped by like 5 tediz in a confined space when you're just getting used to the machine guns.

It's infuriating.

>>11929804
nah, not the same at all. prequels are genuinely flawed movies that you only liked because you were a kid (and so was i). yes they are better than the disney movies but that doesn't make them retroactively good. phantom menace despite being a clusterfuck of a snore-inducing story is the best one because it keeps the CGI to a somewhat minimum and was the last star wars movie to still be filmed on analog film. 2 and 3 are bloated pieces of dogshit weighed down by the flat lifeless scenes and hayden's faggoty emo teenager acting.

>>11929851
>prequels are genuinely flawed movies

the ot is worse than the pt in every single way

>>11928948
i found it easy enough with shotgun and M6D.

>>11927156 (OP)
As an adult playing in HD with keyboard and mouse, Library seems too easy, to the point of being boring, even on Legendary. Why did they make the flood so weak?

I'd prefer not to see enemies spawning in plain sight based on me walking John past a certain point. There's one spot, in a tunnel, where bombers can just appear out of nowhere, instead of pretending to come out of something, multiple times in a row. It even has a sound cue when John passes a specific point. Very immersion breaking.

It's not about halo being bad or good it's about these copypasta replies that are shit out seconds after the OP. 4chuds is full of bots, while this board isn't really suited for them the ease of making one means it's very likely there's at least 1.

>>11927156 (OP)
>The flood are a ripoff of the many
>they even ripped of the crappy penultimate orangic hive level but made it brown

The atmosphere in the Library is really cool and mysterious, I've found the modding scene has never been able to do it justice when they try and improve it and throw tons more factions and vehicles into it and try to make it like a Halo 2 level.

>>11927156 (OP)
Two Betrayals is far worse than the Library.

>>11930159
Anon it's all just Aliens.

343 was okay, if long and annoying
The library was just too long.
I can't forgive them for two betrayals as it was just the Assault in reverse

Hope you like fps platforming

>>11930159
Everything in Halo is a ripoff. They were very lazy.

>>11929678
Two Betrayals fucking sucked. Blows my mind that some people have it as their favorite level. There are some cool moments but overall it sucked.

Why are the flood so weak? It's frustrating having only the flood to fight. So boring.

>>11931284
Because there are a shit ton of them

>>11931597
There's not though. That's the problem.

>>11929347

>>11931686
Yeah I truly do not understand this new trend of Halo revisionism lol

>>11931723
it was designed for standard definition and sloppy potentiometer sticks, and i'm playing in HD with a much more precise optical sensor mouse. Legendary is barely challenging played this way as an adult.

Is there a single game that /vr/ doesn't shittalk? Like name ONE single game. Most of the posts about any game ever are just negative shit

>>11931786
I never said other shooters are more challenging, just that Halo CE's "Legendary" has room to be more challenging. i guess i could impose additional challenges on myself, such as saving Al Matthews

>>11928210

>>11927156 (OP)
Are the flood nerfed in MCC, or do they just suck? They're so impotent for most of the level and the "high tension" music is really discordant with the threat they pose compared to the much more difficult ayy lmaos

>>11930804
Is there a reason that specifically Xen was so hated at the time? It isn't long at all, and the game has fucking unlimited quicksaves. I get that the giant headcrab boss battle can be buggy, but the rest of that area is just as kino as Black Mesa, especially in the expansions.

>>11933741
It's just how they are

>>11933812
It's not. It's pacing is terrible. The gameplay is completely antithetical to what the rest of the game has taught you and the level layouts are just a mess to navigate with random guessing being the only way to progress. It sucks, it always has sucked, and it will continue to suck.

>>11930804
this part was cool.

>>11933952
No you can't because the controllers come in and start making them aggro. Not to mention the level verticality makes it so the controls have full advantage of the arena and those damn spinning platforms can't even give you a consistent point of reference to shoot from. Xen is garbage.

was it really necessary to have Cortana tell John to steal a banshee? Was this determined through play testing at 480i?

I don't know if I was doing something wrong when I played but I never got any ammo in xen. I had to use the shitty alien gun the whole time and I hated it.

>>11934690
And a good "fuck drumpf and all his little drumpfers!" to you too.

>>11934703
Two Betrayals was a completely unnecessary level entirely and is the definition filler.
Does it provide anything unique gameplay wise? Sure there's Flood fighting Covenant but those engagements are few and far between and Keyes does it better. The level isn't any different than Assault on the Control room except for the banshee and even the scenarios you're given to use it aren't fun.
Does it do anything Narratively?
No. Cheif has to disrupt some power generators to make it so the Ring can't fire for a short period of time which is pointless because Cortana has the activation index so 343 can't activate the ring and even if 343 had the index he'd still need a human to activate it for him.

It's literally the worst lwvel

>>11934730
you didn't get in a banshee the first time through? it's really easy stealthing the last bit and grabbing an active camo

>>11929397
I'll never understand hating this level. The worst things I can say about it are that the map is mostly reused from AotCR and going to those handful of copypasted energy node areas was a little bit repetitive. Even then though, the level is played in reverse, is much more vertical with new enemy encounters, and it's at night time, so the ambiance and flow are significantly different. As for the rooms you have to fly to, they take all of 5-10 minutes in an 1hr+ level to complete, and AotCR has way more of those copy pasted areas interior areas. Coming out of the forerunner structure and sliding down to stealthily pick off little camps of enemies and then hijacking a banshee is a lot of fun, and those big open areas filled with flood and covenant engaging in all out war is unironic kino.

I look forward to this level every time I play. I can't imagine hating it unless you hate 70% of the levels in general. That, or getting filtered by shit like the opening area where you have to kill the drones. It doesn't do anything worse in terms of reused content than the other levels in the latter half of the game. Disliking this shit more than the Library is baffling to me. I'd say it's one of my favorite levels right up there with Halo and SC.

>>11934750
Only post in this thread talking sense. Atmosphere in Two Betrayals is fantastic as well.

>>11934729
I'm reddit? Riiight. Mr "we can still win this!" You are so brain dead dude. You're still signing your fucking change dot org net neutrality campaign. You have nothing to say so you cry trump. Dumb little zoomer, you don't even know what's been lost.

>>11934776
The keyword has been entered thus 「BOT」 has been activated。

>>11927156 (OP)
the parts with just a bunch of bombers are funny because more of them doesn't add any additional challenge. The whole level is a cakewalk, even on Legendary. Have youngshits ever experienced an actual cakewalk? Do those still happen?

>>11934750
>>11934764
Oh please AOTCR is already a long slog boring level with copy paste rooms and Two Betrayals is just that backwards and with an enemy set that doesn't play well in the geometry. Not only that it's played only two levela after AOTCR which makes it even more apparent the reuse of the level is. We get less vehicles to play with on Two Betrayals with the only unique vehicles being the banshees which we only get to fly in the box canyons they are featured in. The flood ans covenant don't really fight each other as they are segregated in their specific rooms and the only time we see any interfighting is in wide open terrain where we can't even take advantage of the chaos. I don't care that it's dark and snowy, the ambiance is nowhere near as good as 343, Halo, or the Maw. Repetitive rooms aren't fun and neither are less vehicle options aren't fun

>>11934730
>Two Betrayals was a completely unnecessary level entirely and is the definition filler.
It's fun therefore it exists.
>Does it provide anything unique gameplay wise?
Don't care

Don't care
>It's literally the worst lwvel
One of the best actually.

have y'all considered the original context though? Google lets you specify a range of dates for your search.

the big open maps with all the toys were well received at the time. there's multiple ways to play them, which is more than can be said about a lot of crAAAp

>>11934835
>DUDE LESS VEHICLES SO IT'S BAD LOL
guy fieri tier argument. also top lmao at you sucking off 343 which is literally a proto-library and boils down to running through identical concrete hallways until the end, whereafter you then run back through the exact same hallways but with shittier platforming and flood. but it has muh spooopy forest opening area with le crackling radios (that lasts for exactly 30 seconds)... it's like one of my alien movies!!!

let's be honest, you just get filtered by the drones on legendary and you want a scorpion tank to stick its barrel in your anus. there's no other reason you'd defend absolute dogshit like 343 (you know, the level that's 50% played in reverse and has no vehicles?). TB is one of the few levels with a meaningful stealth element, has some of the most enemy variety, has all of the weapons, cool enemy infighting, and is one of the only levels after in the second half od the game with some non-linearity. this is on top of it having nice ambiance and the least amount of some cunt shouting in your ear. there is literally nothing to dislike about it other than muh reused content which multiple other levels do way more egregiously. you are a faggot with bad taste.

>>11927257
it's just oldtroons still fighting console wars from 20 years ago

>>11934915
Hey faggot I only used 343 as a reference to a level with more fucking Ambience than Two Betrayals. It's funny you need to make up arguments I didn't even say just to defend the shitty level you like.
>Less vehicles in massive ass level is actually a good thing
Piss off. Two betrayals would have benefitted greatly with the inclusion of a usable Wraith to mix up the encounters and smash up Flood. At the very least give us something more than a ghost or don't take the fucking banshee away when the level finally opens up.

>abloo bloo poo poo no argument
alright.
>less vehicles in massive ass level
it isn't even massive, it's like 1/3 as big as AOTCR because the entire level isn't reused. i can't imagine how shit and retarded you must be at the game to struggle with this level just because it doesn't have tanks. because that's what is ultimately at play here: you don't like the level because you get your anus hammered by drones and the node room squads. you have failed to produce any criticism other than "uhhh it sucks because it has less vehicles", and this is because you need to git gud.

>>11934980
>Hur dur you bad at level cuz you need tank
There you go making up shit again. I said that more vehicle variety would help make the level less of a boring slog. Do you even fucking read posts before replying? The biggest issue with Two Betrayals is that it is a boring fucking level that feels like filler because that is exactly what it is. It doesn't add anything of worth. Any new concepts it brings into the sandbox are not capitalized on and the lack of variety fucking kills it. When was the last time you even played CE? These issues are apparent to anyone who has played the game without rose tinting.

>the level is boring because it's boring, it's a boring slog, it's a boring slog because it doesn't have enough vehicles and something something muh sandbox
a compelling argument. unfortunately, after much consideration, i maintain that you are A) bad at the game and B) a fag with no taste.

Can you literally do anything other than make up arguments no one is making to defend your shit opinion? Fuck you gotta samefag too? I've made it clear enough for Helen Fucking Keller to see but here's why the level is fucking boring. It reuses a previous level that wasn't that good, it reuses the same room over and over, it reuses the same objective over and over, it lacks vehicle variety, it lacks unique encounters, it rarely has the covenant combat the flood, it boxes you in with the
Banshee so you can't even really experiment combat scenarios with it which is awful since this is the only level it is featured as a drivable vehicle, and it's repetitive just like your retarded rebuttals. Now do me a favor and shove a dick in your mouth so I don't have to hear your pathetic arguments.

Fuck off. I've beaten CE more times than your father should've beat you.

Guarantee those idiots voting have never even watched the OT

the real moral of the story is to pick a better op example. halo invites classic retarded debates, console wars are a true eccentric spice of /vr/ that never fades away over time unlike good video game discussion, because it is a spice bereft of wit and one enjoyed by simple minds

Not a chance.

I can confirm the moving platform thing, sometimes it can also push you into a block and you have to reset or wait for a timeout.
Never seen the part where you crash through the ground but I wouldn't be surprised, Sonic games are famous for being so fucking buggy. Speedrunners just use the look up then spindash trick because it temporarily removes all collission and you can overflow the counter and skip to the ending of a level in five seconds.

Whenever I think about replaying SoF 2 I remember those three levels in Cambodia and immediately go back to replaying the first one instead.

Wow, very comprehensive and intelligent analysis, surely anyone lambasting your non-arguments is "making things up" and not simply point out how vapid and pointless your statements have been.
