This game is going to own. CTF on Halo 1 Blood Gulch with flag at home required to score on xbl should be fun.

I wonder if this game will have a Blood Gulch playlist at some point. It's going to have 5 different versions of the map. Does this game have forge?

The Kins posted:The achievement list is up. Some of them are utterly brutal (laffo at LASO Master). Also, confirmation that the PC-exclusive Halo 2 skull is included! I really hope that if you beat it on legendary it also give you the achievement for beating all the other difficulty levels, not that I care about 100% achievement completion but that would be terrible to have to beat it on every difficulty.

Does this game have forge for Halo 1 or just the games that originally had it + anniversary edition of 2? edit: I really wish Halo had custom game browsers. I think that would be a great way to try out forge maps and custom game types. Spacebump fucked around with this message at 17:51 on Oct 28, 2014 |

AdmiralViscen posted:When I got married in 2011, the morning of my groomsmen and I wanted to to some old school Halo 2 system link together. We had two XBoxes and all that but one of them didn't have the DLC so we were stuck doing it on the stock maps since XBox One (released in 2001) Live servers were no longer online. Halo 2's map dlc came out on a disc also. My friends and I just bought that and shared it.

Funkmaster General posted:Yeah, this sucks. It's like this for all the games. I really wanted to recreate my Halo 3 guy, but he had a clownsuit so I can't. Seems even worse for Halo 4, because there were so many options, but I care a little less. Also a shame that you can't preview your colors out of game tk make sure they look good, or choose visor colors etc etc. Does Halo 4 mp not have user made load outs anymore?

Tighclops posted:Reach was fun until 343 mangled it with their title update, but the maps were certainly unremarkable overall. What did 343 do to Reach with their update? I stopped playing by the time that rolled out. Also, Reach had some maps I remember being fun. Off the top of my head I liked Boardwalk, Sword Base, and Power House.

And who knew a hacked together game bundle of poo poo you already owned would have troubles Every game but 2 (Destiny and NBA 2k15, which both had less problems than this game) I've bought at launch in the last year have worked great. That's not almost every single one.

Sedisp posted:Far less people are making returns than you think. Even some people who say they're returning it are not actually doing that. Even more people will just trade it in which doesn't affect a product like MCC. I imagine a lot of people that didn't buy it on launch day that wanted to get the game still haven't bought the game and won't until it's fixed. That's my plan.

MrAptronym posted:Fall of Reach is the only Halo book I have read actually. It was a while ago, but I loved that thing. Also, 'I Love Bees' was surprisingly good. I Love Bees made me think Halo 2's story was going to be better than it turned out. It also had me excited for defending Earth in that game.

343 should have made this game only Halo 2 anniversary. Then it would probably have working multiplayer and they could do HD remakes of other Halo games later. Whoops.

It's kind of funny to me that during the lead up the kept stressing things like these ports were going to be as accurate as possible and they didn't want to change anything so people could do all the old bugs they liked. Then it turns out they actually ported PC versions of some of the games instead of Xbox. This really has no lan support? That's crazy.

Soul Glo posted:I was being facetious. It seems fairly arbitrary to cut off ODST's freeness, but at least the game is playable enough, and the issues have been known long enough, that anybody buying it now probably doesn't need to be placated with free content. A lot of people that buy gamers games for Christmas gifts aren't reading video game websites about broken games. I can't imagine the game is much better than it was on the 19th. That cut off date is really arbitrary.

The post game stat screen feels like a downgrade from the last few Halos. It's also really lazy what they did with picking armor for Halo 3/4. Does anyone stay with the lobby after games or does everyone still get dumped out to select your playlist after every round?

Last night I was playing Halo 1's campaign co-op. After beating the second to last level it almost started the next level then booted us into a multiplayer lobby. In the middle of the car section of the last level it randomly stopped gameplay and started to play the level intro cut scene, then restarted from the check point at the start of the car section. After beating Halo 1 is showed the ending then skipped the credits. How is the campaign so buggy?

Do 2 and 3 in MCC still have proxy chat? I'm always in a party so I have no idea. Proxy chat used to be hilarious in those games.

Just found enough players for a big team battle, voted on the map, then it kicked 4 players, and went back to looking for players. Guess I was just getting lucky with how well it's worked the last few times I've played. Also, I really wish there was a Big Team Slayer playlist and Big Team Objective instead of both together.

Max Wilco posted:So I just wanted to jump in ask this: Recently, I've taken an interest in playing Halo. I've only ever played the first game (albeit briefly, when over at a friend's house). I should point out that I don't own an XONE, or any of the other XBOX consoles. I know that there are PC ports of the first two games, but I don't know anything about their quality, or if they're even compatible with Windows 7. You can play all of them for decent prices on the 360. MCC on the bone has Halo 1-4 and will be getting ODST dlc. If you just want to play Halo, do it on the 360 for cheaper. If you want to play Halo 5 (when it comes out) or other non-Halo games consider the Xbox One.

Intel&Sebastian posted:Reminder that while, yeah Halo 4 launched "just fine", it also launched with like half the MP content of Reach (at Reach's launch) the spartan ops mode was universally panned as not as good as firefight and they strung people along promising forge maps and better playlists.....none of which happened until well after they were done shilling playerbase splitting DLC/Season pass junk. It was not exactly flawless and sent me back to Reach for the entire lifetime of that game. Didn't they also say they were going to do a second season of Spartan Ops that didn't happen?

Seedge posted:Sorry to ask for a recap, but had someone at college asking me about it: what exactly is working / broken in the Halo MCC MP? Last I heard, there were no Halo 1 or 2 playlists at all. Sometimes it takes a long time to find a game. Sometimes after taking 10+ minutes to find the game, it let's players vote on the map, acts like it's about to boot the game, and then goes straight to the post game carnage report. The campaigns also occasionally have glitches (at least Halo 1 I haven't beat the others on MCC yet)

Hey look at this picture the CEO of Microsoft tweeted. https://twitter.com/satyanadella/status/550366010453532673 Master Chief is saying Windows 10 while standing next to the words Master Chief collection. Wonder if this means MCC is coming to Windows 10 in 2015.
