Remaking Halo would be counter-productive.

And what you said about BG was horrible. BG is the most overused map along with the fact that most noobs/hackers/bots stay in there because other noobs/hackers/bots go there. Go play a more intense map, like Battle Creek or Longest, let's see how your cross-mapping sniper shots work out.

Big maps are fun every once in a while, but people need to play the more compact maps more often. It hones their skills for unexpected encounters better then cross-map sniping.

Not to mention the fact that overuse of punctuation doesn't make you appear mature...just saying.

AFAIK, why remake Halo for the 360 platform when the 360 itself is backwards-compatible with the original Xbox?

Unless the newer versions of the console (not the Kinect-enabled one) disabled the backwards-compatibility hardware - like the PS3...

I wouldn't know, I don't own a 360 :x

i still own and regulary use my original becuase of some backwards compatibilty issues.

Urgh I don't want you to agree with me. I certainly don't have that view on the armour changing, indeed, Halo 2 and 3 have the same armour. Stop sounding foolish.
I wish they're have limited dual-wielding in Reach. Maybe let Spartans dual-wield the two Pistols and needlers, while elites could dual-wield all those and the plasma rifle and spiker. Though they might have to increase the damage/accuracy penalty by a rather large scale for balance.

I dislike some aspects of the Armour Abilities. My view is that Sprint and Evade have NOTHING to do with Armour attachments. Rather, they'd be more logically implemented as inherent abilities of the user. I think any Spartan should be able to Sprint, and any Elite should be able to evade, or both can do both, alongside having a unique Armour Ability. So imo every loadout should have Sprint, Evade, and a specific ability.

There should also be an extra ability to replace the overshield that doesn't exist anymore.

Active Camoflauge was completely useless. What, if I move at running speed I'm completely solid but still using cloak? Even when I'm crouch-walking I'm still extremely noticable? What the hell, I'm supposed to move up to someone by moving at half crouch-speed? The radar jammer is somewhat coutnerproductive, it jams the radars of everyone nearby, and alerts the enemy. It should have been the ability to not appear on the radar instead. I usually use Sprint or Evade over it. In fact, I've gotten to used to being able to get a quick burst of speed I can't really use any other ability.

sure is opinions in here..

yeah you're right I guess halo wars definitely isn't a halo game. it's not set in the halo universe, doesn't involve halo characters, and doesn't have halo mechanics or anything

oh and since we're all opinions in here, halo 3 was halo 2.5 hd.

Seriously? Modern warfare 2 was just pointless shooting

Xoronatus,

I am dissapoint. You cannot compare Halo to the worst FPS game called Call of Duty.

I don't understand why everyone has to compare Halo with CoD?!?! They have completely different story lines, combat, weapons, graphics, etc.........

I personally enjoy both series, but I could never choose one over the other. CoD is all about fast-paced combat and bleeding-edge technology, while Halo is slower paced and requires strategy and experience to REALLY do well. I personally think that Halo CE and CoD4: MW are both classics that no self-respecting gamer should EVER do without.

(And just for the record CoD6: MW2 is not as bad as some people say, but is DEFINATELY not the masterpeice that CoD4: MW was)

The reason people compare halo and cod is the fact they both sell a lot of games, but the only difference is that Halo stayed popular with 1 game alone for 3 years, and COD took 3 games to stay effective.

Now, the Halo series will drive itself to death unless they continue from halo 3, which probably wont happen because the game was always set to end there. ODST and Reach were afterthoughts and were kinda pressed to be made into a release.

Again, I miss the beta.

Sorry guys for starting this COD thing. Halo Reach is an awesome game, but compared to COD doesn't have as much explosions and action. It's much more elegant and organized. Which that's a good thing, the gameplay isn't just "right-click and spam bullets." Halo in my opinion is a better game, but could learn some important things from call of duty. Put more explosions .

Honnestly what I felt with the campaigns in Halo 2, 3 and getting worse up to reach is the lack of player involvement. I remember when I got Halo 1, that feeling I had that as the game moved we were heading straight into hell. Totally stranded, marines in smaller and smaller number.. then you hit the flood. That was striking because you feared ''Hey we're on a ring but if only ''one'' dropship gets away, we're all doomed''.

When we got in Halo 2 however, this lost all it's meaning. The covenant taking High Charity yet beeing unable to somewhat have ONE ship go away and rape the galaxy? This proved even worse in Halo 3 when the flood came on earth and were wiped out so easily...


In reach, all their attempts for Epic were fun but in the end, it never felt like the book Fall of Reach did. It never felt like Reach was worth fighting for. Placing 30 warthogs in a cutscene as ''Humanity'' answer to covenant attack ''all across the viery territory''... Really, just cheap epic, cheap campaign not enough polish done and not enough player investment. And I don't mean buying armors, I mean making you feel like YOU are the one playing and having an impact on saving reach. Where were all those civilians we saw on concept art when spartans fought across evacuating civilians? Really I never felt pressed, scared, urged, panicked or any thing like that in Halo Reach.

I can't give anymore information right now, but in 2 months I will be able to throw you some meat to chew on. For right now, the script (which is under wraps atm) looks good, but as for the game potential, I hope it improves a tad.

Who's gloating?

no

it's me

I am the gloater

you're so dumb 2l8

Back on Topic, Now

Well, Reach is a good game, with some flaws, but I like it. Why else would I be on HRCEMT?

Alright, back on topic:

I thought they were going to remake Halo 1 in HD, I heard it was going to have all of the same sound. I didn't hear any details about multiplayer. I also heard that after that they will release Halo 4, which will continue the story of Master Chief and will finish his story. I heard Halo Combat Revolved will come out in like April, and h4 will come out like a year after that. That's just what I heard.

I am just going to leave this here and let you guys make your own decision.

http://halonemesis.wikia.com/wiki/The_Nemesis_Project

Yeah, not saying a Halo Remake isn't in the works but, one it's not confirmed (only speculation at the moment) and if it is happening it's not happening this year.

I liked Halo 3's ending, thought it was a satisfying ending to Master Chief's story.

I dont ever want to see that again, please don't post stuff like that here again, this is an on topic thread, please keep it that way, if you wish to share that, share it with Dennis, he will be able to do something about it.



Halo 1 remake was in the doings, this Halo script I got is a possibility, not a fact, it has a poor chance of passing que if anybody knows what I mean. The script is good for a book.

The Halo 1 thing I have no information on. Nemesis? I had some info on it going into Alpha about a year ago, but Im not sure from there. As far as I know, its gone, but don't take my word for it.

The "Halo 4" was an idea pondered with since they first thought of the ending of the game, they decided 3 games was enough, and they ended up with 2 spinoffs (ODST and Wars), and a company remake flashback (Reach). Saying they are making a fourth continuation of John's storyline is premature as of right this moment.

I am not all knowing, I am just informed! =)

Well... you are emotionally unstable enough to be cyber bullying a guy over the internet.

Wow, I just watched a little bit of the Reach campaign again. Reminds me of how actually good Reach was. Pretty darn good encounters.

Not much storyline to eat off of though, people thrived off the relationship between characters in Halo 1, 2, and in 3. Even ODST had some good storyline to it.

Literal translation of my pervious statement +1 to you

considering your latest Troll post earlier today I have lost all belief in any words.

343 already said what they were doing.

and it wasnt this if you wanna know just look up comicon of this year with 343

I did not mention 343 now did I? Stay on topic

not legit than. only 2 people own halo's rights Microcrap and 343

hey! Dennis is a GOOD GUY!!!

I have PMed him and I asked him if I could be a moderator

sadly you don't have a new moderator-in-training because Dennis works for UXB
and he said that he could not give me those rights because it says that in his contract and I don't work for UXB

The whole time he was nice and courteous to me about my proposal and he did not get mean

AND JUST FOR THE SAKE OF THIS THREAD, STAY ON TOPIC!!!

or you might see the dark, mean and angry side of Dennis

oh my god he even has his own spell-check ( I tried to spell it dennis

STAY ON TOPIC!!!

If you don't like this place, then why do you keep coming back?

Promise?

If you created a new name to avoid being harassed why did you announce yourself?

People can't resist this place. Like:

JoshFlighter.
Selentic.
L0d3x.
L283023.
HIRALIS.
ASP_Grunts.
martynball.
assassinchief.

The list just keeps going.

i like cereal

Could I make a suggestion than, don't set yourself up to be trolled/harassed. I've been here since 06 and have yet to have an issue with harassment on this Forum (though I'm not surprised by people being harassed).

When you created your thread about "Begone Trolls" or whatever it was you just asked people to irritate you. Ask and you shall receive.

Also if we need to continue this, let's take it to PM's.
