thanks for the link.


Man, I hope they will say something about halo 3 on steam. If so what's you're reaction will be like?

Gamescom Aftermath

Announcement of 'Halo Channel' A centre to watch and play Halo media and earn rewards:



MCC Halo 2 Campaign:

A very short playthrough of Delta Halo showcasing the difference in visuals between the original game and the remake:




MCC Halo 2 Multiplayer

ASSAULT RIFLE IN HALO 2 CONFIRMED

Sanctuary has been named as one of the remade maps in H2's MCC multiplayer. A Halo 4-looking assault rifle has been spotted as well. Dynamic events have been added to all 6 remade maps with the one in Sanctuary being destroyable waterfall release hatches which obstruct vision and change the course of a battle.




Halo 5 Beta

First ingame footage of H5 Guardians beta. 2 maps shown and it looks like H4 armor perms will be returning. Very detailed AR, SR and BR shown.




No PC news whatsoever. No console bundle announced.

Glad to see that they're redoing the Covenant sounds making them more alien and less metallic (unlike in Halo 4). I'm really excited

343i ripped my BR :C

that halo 2 anniversary gives you that old feeling and halo 3:)

Sancturay looks great and halo 5: guardians looks awesome.
Anyone got an xbox one?

60 fps on dedi servers!!1!111

Xbox one is better because it has all of the halo series but PC don't.

YES! It has halo reach! And odst! Don't forget custom edition!

xD yeh. Regardless PC is powerfull in the world but still xbox one get to have halo and we don't.


All we have halo 1 and halo 2 on PC. Lolz no one don't even play halo 2 on PC ROFL

I kinda like how the assault rifle's flashlight now has a selector switch instead of just a power stud, and can now toggle between light in the visible and infrared spectrums.

^ yet they will probably be lazy and use h4 anims anyway. anyways, disappointed, its all another mod of h4. H2A looks nice i guess, BUT PLEASE REMOVE THE GRENADE MARKERS.
Halo 5, while im glad is going back to their routes gameplay wise, looks like a "halo 4 2" visually.

i love you.. thanks for the pics :)

H5G SMG (Dual Wielding? :D)



New weapon in the trailer, looks to be anti air and looks like the scrapped dush from halo 3 (perhaps a hint at big maps?)



H5 AR



H5 DMR



Reflex sight BR (suggests that the square scope is gone, honestly tells me that a form of ADS animations are possible.



These were the best images i could get. should be good enough for people to use for reference with modelling.

SANCTUARY. Are you kidding me. How about we remake every map that has already been remade 10 times. also the next tomb raider is xbox exclusive which makes me sad. why the fkkk would you make your 2nd game exclusive to a certain console. thats like bayonetta 2 on wii u

cuzz money. also sanctuary is remade that much, bloodgulch (coag) is the one that annoys me.
Edited by MEGASEAN2812 on Aug 12, 2014 at 02:06 PM

Blood Gulch is practically synonymous with Halo. If any of the maps are going to be remade for every new game that comes out, Blood Gulch is the one I'd expect.

Why don't we just remake all of the maps already remade in later halo games? That way we have literally nothing new.

could be the ark too. and in escalation, they were in i03.
Edited by MEGASEAN2812 on Aug 12, 2014 at 02:23 PM

Screencap?

pretty sure its placeholder and i think the ring is the h1 model, could be installation 03.

Edited by MEGASEAN2812 on Aug 12, 2014 at 02:37 PM

This look like it might be a top-loader, like the P90, as opposed to the side-fed M7 we've seen in previous games.

i wouldnt mind seeing that, sounds pretty interesting.

VKMT H5CE Confirmed

I bet you guys that there is going to be a DLC for more remade maps that will probably cost around $15 USD. Its kinda sad.
I hope the heretics looks good.
Edited by Spiral on Aug 12, 2014 at 03:34 PM

they couldve changed it for this trailer so it doesnt give out plot details or something. we know it cant be i04 cuzz its destroyed.
Edited by MEGASEAN2812 on Aug 12, 2014 at 05:33 PM

nee moar dis sew kewl mi leke h2a

Twice xD

For all you know...

looks great. definitely haven't missed dat 90° FOV though.

inb4 H2A rips for OS+H2SPP

Are you denying the future of Johnlex2 and his rightful position at 343i.
BOW DOWN YOU FILTHY HUMANS WITH YOUR CUSTOM TAGS!

erl herl jernlernerx2, fer her ers gerd

But actual decent rips would take a lot of work.

Also that 1st Halo 2 original pic. Never seen actual Halo 2 look that good :O where my jaggies at?

Well at least it's not impossible considering the H4 tags project so I give about 5 months before someone releases crap and another year to actually get something semi working.

yea, not impossible, just harder than previous generations, given the (presumed) new file system/formats as well as the increased poly count of the models

One map looks like a remake of zealot from reach.

No, it looks like a clear Midship-inspired map, it only looks like Zealot because of how the covenant architecture is.

Also the new AR and other weapons...look ugh. Too much going on. And that new "rocket launcher" whatever looks boring.
