The old one got locked, let's just continue here. Here's an explanation for those idiots who keep on hating on remakes of official content: First of all, if everything was completely custom, it wouldn't be Halo. Very little here is completely custom. You see, if assets from games such as Reach, e.g. weapons are remade, they can help create a different custom experience with those assets. For example, a new map could be made using SPARTAN - III bipeds, but custom vehicles and weapons etc. Imo, as long as the map itself is custom, I'm fine with it, and in any case, remakes are pretty good. For example, I have Halo 2 and 3, yet still play the remakes. Why? Because they still have different features, in a different engine and MP gameplay in a unique PC gaming community.

Now, I hope that explains a bit. I will go into more detail if necessary. In the meantime, feel free to post any Reach-related stuff here. Let's try and be a constructive community, not one which cries out as soon as it doesn't understand the concept of something.

As always, live long and prosper.

This has been a Petera275 epically long post.

There already is a Reach WIP Thread...

Really? Nobody pointed this out to me on the old one. Could you send me a link please?

k thx. Even so, this is not a WIP thread as such. This is a summary of all Reach stuff so far which people can comment on. Not exactly a place for constant progress updates, but just a list of what has been done so far in a small space for people to admire.

Actually this thread is nothing at the moment since all you've done is stated what you "reserved" this space for.

The last version of this thread had all the stuff Peter was talking about, it's just that one member here decided to go off on an extended limb about how non-custom stuff from other games is making its way here...and then it got locked :|

Well, WIP threads do that anyway...

WIP threads are constant spread-out updates. This is more like a gallery merged with a place for ideas. This thread will be everything Reach put into one small thread rather than the standard.

There's already a place with 22 pages filled for Halo Reach content. Use that thread.

Seriously people it's simple. This site has a search utility for a reason. Search before you post something that had to have been done before. Why would reach be out this long without people putting up one of these threads. This was actually up during beta time too. :/

No one cares for Reach ports or even anything custom. The reach weapons just look bad in Halo.

The dozen or so newbie members who keep asking for Reach crap say otherwise.

can some one rip n convert the reach bmr?

you mean the...







-
BATTLE MARKSMAN RIFLE? :D

yea that one

Some people just don't recognize sarcasm...and some people just don't know their Halo. *coughthedudeabovecough*

It's the DMR, dude:

Designated
Marksman
Rifle

And it's already out - albeit in a horrible, non-perfected form, that is.

lolwut?

Btw guys, feel free to post any random reach stuff here, even if there is another WIP thread. Unless Dennis wants to lock it, and I'm happy for him to, 'cos this is kind of pointless.

In other news, FRMT are working hard and may actually release the finished DMR soon, rather than that crappy leaked one. They're good guys, respect them. They try hard, even if they may not look skilful to you, they are passionate about what they do, just as I was once.

Also, be prepared for updated Reach maps, meaning Boneyard and Swordbase. Finally. You may've noticed that Cheddars has been working on this from a while back, and after a little talk, I have also given Spartan 279 some stuff. So be prepared for some pretty quality stuff. We all know I was a failiure, so I'll just be on the sidelines, doing separate projects and occasionally helping out where I can with people.

Does that mean HRCEMT is officially disbanded?

Um, yeah, you could say that. Basically. HRCEMT was a bunch of mismatch volunteers who had very little interest, led by myself, an inexperienced newbie with no idea of the stuff involved at the time of establishment. I may establish a team later on, but for the moment, I'm doing my own thing. Despite this, I'll be happy to work alongside you anytime, Xoronatus. I know you really wanted it to happen, and were an enthusiastic member and supporter. Don't worry. There'll still be releases. Just not by HRCEMT. By me, the members of FRMT and possibly Spartan 279 solo also.

Alright, that's fine. I'll just continue making some solo stuff. Ok, well good luck on your projects, I'll be looking forward to your releases. If you need anything, just PM me on Halomaps or on Xfire.
