I think that they should have kept Halo as a RTS and not a FPS...
Some one should make some old school stuff like the old Spartan, old weapons and such. Edited by SiMuLaCrUm on Sep 2, 2007 at 07:50 PM

old news but yes early halo reminds me of how dogs of war was. where it was an rts but you could then dive into the individual units and play as the selected unit.

I'm sure they will release the old builds, but probably not any time soon. Maybe when they finally decide to open source the game they will...

But personally, I think that the FPS was better then the RTS, but there should have been an option to switch between FPS and TPS. Well, Halo Wars is being made....

Well yes, but if halo started as an RTS I probably wouldn't be sitting here right now. Yeah, I mean it looks like they didn't really have a plan, I always imagined they thoroughly planned the thing out. But the graphics almost looked better in some places, especially the water.

The only reason why i think they took off the gun from the bach is because they changed it to a fps and you wouldn't see the gun on your back as you would in 3rd person. Some of those guns are pretty cool and maybe some day i might make one of them.

i dont believe halo was ever an RTS. it was a 3rd person shooter, but then they changed it to first person. and it used to be all open environments and you didnt follow a path in the campaign. but as you can see its all different now.

Did you watch the first video? In the very beginning it seemed to be. Listen to the people talk-- they said things like "In-game map editor" and at one point the UI came on and they said "Nice UI" while it was still in the birds eye view. I think they told some soldiers to go somewhere too, but I may be incorrect. It was an RTS at one point, if I'm correct. well ya i guess maybe your right.... i saw those videos a while back and i just thought it was like a little dev-cam like thing where they could fly around and tell people to do stuff. but now that i think about it it could have been an rts.

i thought it was still an FPS in that vid, but they were just using something to show it where they could fly around and control the AI or something. but that was like a few months ago when i first saw this vid.

TJ it's people like you who got the pot count taken away on halomaps. Stop posting random crap because you like to press the post button to see your post count go up. There was absoluly no point in it at all. Now to all the other people on this forum and not just this forum before you post it think about... Ask your self it is meaningful enough to be posted.

Quality over quantity, imo. To my understanding, thats why Dennis decided to take the post counts away, so people would judge posters on the merits of what they said instead of how often they posted.

Page 2. I like Halo as a FPS because fps has some magical power to make you think you are the character, or the one in the game.

But personally, I think that the FPS was better then the RTS, but there should have been an option to switch between FPS and TPS. Well, Halo Wars is being made.... Well yes, but if halo started as an RTS I probably wouldn't be sitting here right now. Yeah, I mean it looks like they didn't really have a plan, I always imagined they thoroughly planned the thing out. But the graphics almost looked better in some places, especially the water. In that case, you sir, fail. It is definite that the current halo (1) graphics are better then most of the graphics in the older versions. The only thing that I want back is the gun on their back, and we have accomplished that. Also, they had a plan. I work for Oasis-games, and even though we are Amateur, we work basically the same as any other game company. You have a plan, but you develop and grow onto it, so there will be many different versions. If we don't do that then whatever we come up with will be horrible. I meant mostly the water looked better I think, but you couldn't really tell the graphics, because the video was low-res. I figured they had a plan of some sort, but I guess they were just kind of testing things out. But I mean they had hummers and stuff lol. I always thought they made a whole big dialoge script and thought of the storyline way before they made the game. By plan I meant mostly storyline. I think one of Bungie's first game was on a ship with a bunch of aliens, throwing crap (yes, crap) at you lol!

Guys, leave TJ alone about the post count thing... There was no reason for anyone to go on about it, and nothing implied that he was going to brag about it, he just wanted to check, maybe to see if he should leave the forums and do other things for a while... I've felt that way sometimes....
