general-chat

[green solar]

halo isnt my main game anyway so that probably worth mentioning.

[meager linden]

Lol, smaller package
MCC has almost the same weight as Infinite iirc

[green solar]

if he had lots of precisious files probably! especially risk of rain 2

[green solar]

waaaaaaaaaaaaay more content! and even then its modular. i think i have reach, 3 and odst i stalled atm

yeah mcc is currently 69gb for me, including some mods

damn 28gig is mods… wow.

[meager linden]

way more content lol
And which is that content lmao? PvP or PvE?

[green solar]

both haha since its like 6 games xd

[torpid zephyr]

Stand down Spartan, pc can’t handle it anyway

[green solar]

not judging or anything! just saying

[torpid zephyr]

Soon actually

Announced and in works

[meager linden]

In 2554

[green solar]

i dont expect 1 game to compete with what… 6 of some of the most legendary titles of all time? it just is what it is though

maybe if it was like 20gig! but as is stands it just isnt worth it at all

[torpid zephyr]

Check the official halo news/instagram it’s literally their latest big announcement

[green solar]

skins ✨

thats another reason i couldnt play infinite… i want cat ears

if 343 emailed me cat ears id reinstall right now 😆

[forest lagoon]

Cat ears are a must for any self respecting Spartan

[meager linden]

Then don't buy it, it's your own choice to buy it or not

[green solar]

10 YEARS…….. of pvp lol

[torpid zephyr]

Up to speculation but my wife who is in the industry has kind of illuminated the big problems to me. Namely that 343 is a public traded entity with shareholders (who don’t play video games) as such all decisions made after launch had the sole purpose of generating revenue

[green solar]

true! 🥰

[green solar]

yeah, this haha

[green solar]

i already own it. ill definitely give it a shot if i ever upgrade my pc but for now infinite is just not a consideration to me!

i got outside to the ring….. 10fps xd

uninstalled

[fickle drift]

Let’s go 530 years from now

[torpid zephyr]

On the flip side BPEmma, the last year of infinite have been its best. Though they haven’t been able to recover the player base from such a poor launch, the dev team has taken such incredible strides to make infinite the best halo mp out there. Your opinion on the game is dated, having several ranked leagues, custom games browsers and servers, and a whole list of populated halo favourites like swat, rumblepit and btb

[green solar]

xd absolutely

[torpid zephyr]

It’s a complete 180 and I’m sad it won’t get the recognition it deserves

[green solar]

it ran…. but barely. id rather just not at that point

it was more like a steady 40 with dips into the 20 iirc

[torpid zephyr]

Infinite runs hot for me, and I have a 2080 super

[meager linden]

Oh yeah, just started countdown

[green solar]

i dont think its a dated opinion! all i said was mcc has more content, which it objectively does. and thats fine though!

like borderlands 2 has more content than 3 but i still prefer 3 for example

[green solar]

more content for less space. thats just true!

[forest lagoon]

It's not a problem i swear

[green solar]

maybe if i had 1tb or something but as i stands i have 900gb 🙈

[meager linden]

Best coating

[green solar]

innit. it doesnt need to run that badly, especially at low settings

[fickle drift]

Almost

[green solar]

ill die on that hill lol

i was really hoping for an optimisation pass but i dont think one ever came

[torpid zephyr]

If halo infinite has 100 players I am one of them.
If halo infinite has 10 players I am one of them.
If halo infinite has 1 player it is me.
If halo infinite has 0 players I am dead.

[green solar]

also i forgot to reply sorry. thank you! 💕

[torpid zephyr]

you’re technically my commanding officer. I haven’t even played halo 4,

[fickle drift]

W

[green solar]

loool fair halo 4 is a guilty pleasure i shouldnt like it but do

“she said that to me once. that i was a machine” 😢

[torpid zephyr]

stoopppp I don’t know yet

[woven mauve]

anyone knows how to enable exclusive fullscreen? the game has tons of input lag it makes it not fun to play.

[green solar]

play it!

[forest lagoon]

Halo 4 was great. Not my favorite Chief design, but story wise I like it

[green solar]

yeah that was precisely one of my issues too. no dedicated fullscreen = screw you if your behind on specs

[eager sorrel]

It's crazy to me they recast chief and Cortana in 4 originally

[meager linden]

And it takes only 193500 days to reach 2554 year

[woven mauve]

the thing is im not behind on specs at all...

[torpid zephyr]

Recasting Cortana is crazy as Taylor plays cortana in every rendition of her. Even the show lol

[eager sorrel]

They were so disconnected from the community and franchise

[green solar]

yeah your out of luck. no fullscreen 😢

[woven mauve]

thats 343 trying to reinvent the wheel 24/7

[fickle drift]

Let’s goo

[torpid zephyr]

STOP THE HATE

[green solar]

baffling they never added fullscreen!!

[woven mauve]

RIP, that and TAA are like the bloom and sepia of this generation

[green solar]

looooool thats so true

[meager linden]

And maybe we will see the covenant once more, and Spartans

[eager sorrel]

The paramount show tried to reinvent the wheel too 🤮

[elfin glacier]

D3D12 makes exclusive fullscreen redundant

[green solar]

it does in most circumstances. not all though. remember pcs are collections of parts that sometimes play differently with eachother

sometimes dedicated fullscreen is just needed for some people. simple as 😖

[torpid zephyr]

I posted my rant already on this

[eager sorrel]

What if they recast master chief in the new halo

[green solar]

james 118 🤤

[torpid zephyr]

Lock that down spartan

[green solar]

what does that mean

[eager sorrel]

TF are you on about

[elfin glacier]

nah

D3D maybe, DX is wider than just 3d rendering

[green solar]

unironically id watch that! jada pinkett smith as a spartan…. make it happen

missus captain ✨

[torpid zephyr]

She does look like a spartan II

[green solar]

she does!

[woven mauve]

Vulkan makes D3D12 redundant but one works better then the other in certain PCs, Fullscreen works better on mine for example, it gets rid of latency.

[hasty zinc]

disappointed i was that they again went directly against his canon. John 117 is a Spartan 1,
Well they said before it aired that it's a separate timeline and not canon to the games/books, also he's a Spartan 2 not a "Spartan 1" aka Orion

[green solar]

this @elfin glacier
pcs are like people; one size doesnt fit all. thats why you need more options

[torpid zephyr]

You have me there, I never went back to change that.

[green solar]

so bizzare they never added such a simple option 😖

[hasty zinc]

but going into I expected it to be very different as it is completely separate from any current canon/timeline

[torpid zephyr]

But my dearest mod you can not refute the needless blatant rewriting of most of the key characters behavior, values and mannerisms.

Exactly

[green solar]

yeah thats a big reason im not too concerned about the show… it isnt really canon its just its own thing

its not really intruding on halo. it just exists in its own bubble!

[woven mauve]

MS thinks Fullscreen is not needed because to them Windows 11 is made for Borderless fullscreen, now, its the same microsoft that makes games incompatible with 7.1 audio or polling rate higher then 500

[green solar]

yeah its just silly. the fact that some people need fullscreen is proof people need fullscreen lol

youd think thatd be obvious, but to be fair microsoft is a software company. what the heck do they know xd

[woven mauve]

oh and the same MS that did games for windows, then the windows store and tried to replace how executables work and failed because they were worse.

[green solar]

loooool

[hallow oyster]

Evening

[meager linden]

Night

[woven mauve]

You can force it back on, there are guides to do it, MS never gets rid of things they put on their OS, they just stack them on

[green solar]

i got rid of my xbox because dealing with microsoft shenanigans was annoying…… so funny that every time i have an issue on my pc its 99% of the time traceable to microsoft

cant find the minecraft bedrock exe. oh its because microsoft hid it in some deep crypt of a file path guarded by hundreds upon hundreds of random numbers.
and literally i have a clip of gamebar freezing my game in multiplayer to tell me i earned “points”…….. nebulous points lol

i cant share it here though no permission. its so funny xd

[woven mauve]

i think there are tools to automatically get rid of bloatware, Chris Titus's tool is one of them

Also yeah thats always been a thing with them, they think they know what people want, not listen to what people ask for.

And they can afford to be like that so they wont bother

Anyway I found a way to get rid of some of the input lag, and it was ending the windows explorer so its not rendering, something fullscreen does too.

[elfin glacier]

well people refuse to switch to linux so yeah

depends on the games

[woven mauve]

some games are compatible with linux natively or using the workarounds, some run better there, but some also pulled the plug on linux support, payday 2 and GTA V are an example, the reasons vary

[obsidian wyvern]

https://x.com/_Okom/status/1861095740342145275?t=i7ikibOIWM1mep7vVT6tpg&s=19

Okom (@_Okom) on X

Intentional or an error in the stat tracking systems? The play counts for #Halo Infinite maps and modes rose to the millions within days.

Twitter · Nov 25, 2024, 5:12 PM

so did the servers just have a moment lol

[elfin glacier]

again, depends on the game. CDrom shouldn't matter

[woven mauve]

Probably a UI Bug.

Boys when camera

[elfin glacier]

kubuntu

get 24.04 for long term support

only downside is that its not gonna have the latest software but it's supported longer

[green solar]

I FOUND IT. i still love it its so funny
https://youtu.be/wZ7K5il2J98?si=1VCqWQnivKrQfAZC

[elfin glacier]

linux mint used to be easier and had a bit more preinstalled but nowadays it's not significantly better

[torpid zephyr]

Lmfao

[green solar]

points 🎊

[elfin glacier]

not gonna get too technical but Kubuntu is closer to Ubuntu, but has a much nicer out of the box while still having access to all the stuff Ubuntu does

the default desktop is very familiar but also way more customizable

like a ton of different themes

[woven mauve]

Game bar got debloated out of the system that afternoon

[elfin glacier]

also, for the most part nowadays you probably never have to touch the command line for casual use (internet, gaming, office work)

[green solar]

its just such a perfect analogy for microsoft… everything is fine. then they show up 😖

chaos ensues 💔

[woven mauve]

usually MS does one terrible and one decent OS, so hopefully they keep it like that and make W12 decent, starting with a rollback on the hardware thing.

[normal owl]

Win11 has been great for me: zero issues so far the entire time.

[woven mauve]

RIght?

[torpid zephyr]

Okay ONI spook

[normal owl]

I'm sure the small 5% subset of computer users who use their computers in such a way that they would prefer Linux have their justifiable gripes, but for the vast majority of computer users, Windows is just fine.

Small minority of drivers prefer stick shift: that's great for them, but automatic works just fine for the vast majority's needs.

[torpid zephyr]

I kid, I agree actually. Been building pc’s, modding and gaming for 15 years. Never once needed to nor considered switching OS

NOT that Microsoft needs a few of its billions of users to white knight for it

[green solar]

how active is the lfg here?? i feel like squadding up for firefight or something

[torpid zephyr]

(((( they will banish you to lfg chat, but genuinely you’re more likely to find people in general and go to dms but you didn’t hear that from me ))))

[normal owl]

Satya is on his way right now to pick us up in his jet and personally thank us for our kind words about MS! Are you dressing formal or semi-casual?

[amber mirage]

I see you're on a first name basis with him

[green solar]

oh 😖
does anyone here fancy some mcc? i feel like making halo friends! i dont have any haha

[normal owl]

Yeah, or nickname is "MSN": Microsoft Satya Nadella. He gets a chuckle out of that.

[torpid zephyr]

Boiler room jumper, with a paperboy cap I will keep squeezed between my hands and repeating “Thankya sir” after ever sentence .

[pliant hatch]

holy crap guys, LFG channels

lets go to DMs or LFG xd

[green solar]

i was asking for clarification 😭

yee ok

[torpid zephyr]

yea we have important things to discuss here. Like Operating systems and using LFG

[normal owl]

lol

[fickle drift]

to play ranked is crazy

[woven mauve]

MM yeah operating systems are made of operations

[fickle drift]

god dam 50 matches

[obsidian wyvern]

because there was a cheater problem

[fickle drift]

o

[obsidian wyvern]

which.. still hasn't been patched

[fickle drift]

lol then remove it man im new and dont want to play bad people in casual

[green solar]

why do people cheat its so bizzare!

[fickle drift]

its like they need to be good at something since life isnt treating them that well 😉

[obsidian wyvern]

crazy thing is this cheat is the same one used in halo 5

[molten pelican]

Yeah I can relate, however there seems to be the issue of a black screen with a cursor after logging in. But it has only happened twice and the easy fix is to just get to the troubleshoot screen and uninstall the latest quality update and make sure it doesn't install again

[normal owl]

because they are so starved for any kind of confidence that they will literally work to obtain meaningless wins in a video game where no one even knows who they actually are.

[green solar]

well if thats true i do feel sorry for them… cheating isnt the answer but hey ho theres worse paths to take i suppose.

[torpid zephyr]

Comp MCC or Infinite?

[fickle drift]

inf

[normal owl]

Have you tried speaking to your computer in a soothing voice?

[molten pelican]

A lot of time it's a new account and they have nothing to lose and troll, either way it's aggravating

[green solar]

daww well i do feel for people like that. still though

[torpid zephyr]

God I wish more people played ranked infinite. I’m trying to hit onyx in ranked snipers but diamond 4 is so low populated sometimes I can’t even match

[molten pelican]

I think that was the issue, I put it to sleep with my incredibly deep voice

[normal owl]

Well, their situation is sympathetic only up until they decide that it justifies them attacking other people's happiness in order to serve themselves.

[torpid zephyr]

Oi Oi Bakaaa

[normal owl]

"Swoon & Restart: estimated time 4 min"

[molten pelican]

No sympathy only ban

[green solar]

no your right haha for sure, im just sort of like. well its only a game. them cheating on something so meaningless goes both ways in my opinion. id rather someone cheat in halo or csgo than idk. harass people i suppose

spoken like a true casual gamer i guess 🤷‍♀️

[molten pelican]

I'd rather they not cheat at all and then everyone has fun lol

[green solar]

im a sympathetic person 😞 but i feel you haha

[green solar]

valid lol

[torpid zephyr]

Sympathy IS them getting banned. The best thing for people whose toxic learned behaviour negatively affects those around them is to teach them consequences.

That’s the only way you can help lead them towards a brighter path

[normal owl]

That is very kindhearted of you, but think of it another way: they are purposely and knowingly messing with a fellow diner's meal who paid for it just like the cheater did for theirs. That's not right to do.

[green solar]

oh gosh please dont think im saying they shouldnt get banned!

im just offering my sympathies. thats all 🫶

[green solar]

haha i see your analogy for sure

[molten pelican]

I sympathize with your decision to get banned

Have a nice day ciao

No really I'm sympathetic too I was weeping uncontrollably when Alex got banned from the pride in Madagascar 2

[torpid zephyr]

That was tough. Even for a hardened military weapon.

[obsidian wyvern]

I think they should be fined

What’s tricky is people’s protest to anticheats. The community wants a bulletproof cheater free experience, but don’t want invasive software on their devices. How is that possible

[normal owl]

yes but only black licorice 😋

[lethal sand]

uhhhhhhhhh wdym

[lethal sand]

I like all of the Halos

[torpid zephyr]

The type of content we push people to #lfg for

[molten pelican]

No really I don't know why there are so many negative reviews on games for either having anti cheat or because of cheaters, do they hear themselves lol

[lethal sand]

what

[torpid zephyr]

Don’t worry about it

[lethal sand]

ok

[fickle drift]

my poor ol 6600xt working hard at 1440p lol

shoulda got 7600xt or 6700xt but its wtv was too lazy to return

its run 60% usuage for 90 fps good enough for halo ig

[molten pelican]

That's perfectly good

[torpid zephyr]

I play on a 1080p monitor and turned the render resolution to 75% I think. Legit can’t notice a difference and runs better

[molten pelican]

I'm getting the most out of my 2060, going strong

[torpid zephyr]

Turn up that sharpness baby

[molten pelican]

Saves your GPU like 15 degrees as well lol

[torpid zephyr]

Man this game makes my pc hot ^

[winter flame]

u wanna run ur GPU to the limit tho

CPU bottleneck is not great

[torpid zephyr]

I wish I knew what that meant brother

[winter flame]

bottleneck = what's stopping the game running faster

[fossil skiff]

Slap more transistors in that thang

[winter flame]

you want ur GPU to be at 100% for minimal latency, that way it isn't waiting for anything else and tossing the frame right into ur eyeballs

can someone create an art of "eac bug" eating its main food - halo lobbies

maybe a mantis

custom game lobbies usually come to end when eac bug hits it's a great killer of enthusiam

eac bug 🪲
food: halo lobbies, enthusiasm, parties

[balmy glade]

huh??

[lethal sand]

ok

[lethal sand]

whats eac

whats an eac bug

[granite sky]

Easy anti cheat! The bug is players often get the eac popup randomly and it makes it so the match cannot start, happens very often in custom games

[lethal sand]

what

I’ve only gotten that problem once and it was because my internet was disconnecting

but idk

If you have an actual creation that is halo related and comports with the rules you can post in #1076327824924872755 , but 'check out my channel' isn't allowed at all.

[rough spire]

all of the context is from Halo MCC. How is that not halo related?

its all sweaty, mostly 8v8 games

[cedar turret]

Again, if you have an individual creation you can post in #1076327824924872755 assuming it is halo-related and comports with the rules. But just 'check out my channel' is a no-go

If you still don't understand take it to modmail, please.

[lapis ivy]

you can use or script third person view in forge?

[hasty zinc]

I don't know the exact details on how it works

[faint mantle]

@hollow sparrow next time pls tag individual staff members

[wheat nexus]

Entrenched II when

[meager linden]

Good morning Spartans

[lime laurel]

soon probably

maybe tomorrow if we behave

[pine marsh]

Nighty night y’all

[surreal rune]

Anybody buy that Ghost of Reach bundle?

Do the headphones attach to any other helmets?

Looks like it does equip on the standard Pilot helm at least

Wonder if i'll end up buying PIlot for that

I like the headphones but I could pass on the skull

[shrewd hull]

If I were to use file explorer app on xbox and download a mod file and put it into mcc's files then disconnect from the internet (So I don't get banned) would I be able to play mods on xbox?
I know you can download mods for fallout 3 and do this for xbox but idk about halo lol.

[regal cradle]

It does and it looks really good on it too. Highly recommend getting it

[north plover]

@velvet quail hi!

[surreal rune]

Do you know which ones? I've only found that Pilot works

[obsidian wyvern]

not possible for halo afaik

[shrewd hull]

Awww

[winter flame]

You literally can’t anyway

Xbox is like 3 separate OSs and the system that runs games is completely locked down

[graceful inlet]

Good Morning

[steady jolt]

Not entirely sure what you're trying to do, but downloading Xbox 360 to your computer isn't something you can do. You'll need to check and see if Pocket Edition (assuming Minecraft?) is available for PC, which I'm sure it was only ever a mobile game release

[obsidian wyvern]

but why would you need pocket edition when you have the regular game there lol

i can't tell what else pocket edition would be so it has to be Minecraft

[oak ibex]

Hello Dubai

[silver fable]

why would you want to play bedrock edition when java is better

unless that deleted user was talking about the secret halo pocket edition

[wheat ridge]

Use an emulator

[hardy shoal]

Are you allowed to post somewhere here that I'm hosting a halo mcc server?

[lethal sand]

uhhhhhhhhhhh

I think lfg?

like, are you posting an AD

because if so then idk

[hardy shoal]

Nah I just want to post a message like "I've got a custom lobby up anyone"
And post the lobby name

[jade gust]

That would go in one of the LFG channels

[obsidian wyvern]

just noticed something when looking at a monitor

[graceful inlet]

I see that mint blitz was again trash talking on halo as always...
his video says: 343 Industries Replaced The Master Chief.
and.. as again its not the truth.... it should be more like this: how 343 Industries almost Replaced The Master Chief's voice in Halo 4.
but then it would not be a clickbait...🙄

[lethal sand]

so #lfg-customs

looking-for-group customs

[lethal sand]

what

[trim saddle]

utube creators gotta stand out somehow

[lethal sand]

I already knew about this

[graceful inlet]

especially the ones with negative videos.

[lethal sand]

it was kinda scummy of him of doing that

either way its old news

like, 12 years old news

[graceful inlet]

yeah but he named the video like they replaced the voice actors of john and cortana and that the new games will have new voices.

[lethal sand]

yeah I know

I watched that part of the vid

[trim saddle]

meh, ive been in 3 BTB games with him and everytime hes left after dying 3 times so -shrug- other than that i dont watch his videos and only hear about him from situations like these.

[lethal sand]

he joins matches to show gameplay in the background

[trim saddle]

i wonder what career rank he is

[obsidian wyvern]

hero

[trim saddle]

Oh, so he does play full games?

[graceful inlet]

yeah unfortunetly this "watching" is giving him money... 🙄 thats the wort part.
and also it was kinda wierd to me when he said 343 INDUSTRIES when its Halo Studio now... 😐 I was like: did he lived under the bridge or what?
then I found out he was talking about halo 4 💀 but he puts new halo game pictures there

[obsidian wyvern]

sometimes

[jade gust]

Grifter's gotta grift

Like, he's basically just doing this to stir up controversy within the community and get people to watch his videos

[graceful inlet]

I see that I said wort instead of worst😂

[graceful inlet]

I really hate this kind of people. my friend is still sending me his videos... and he watches them even though I told him that he is a (I cant say that here.)

[jade gust]

And given he tweeted about it before releasing the video, he likely did it with the intention of getting people mad on Twitter first, then hope they'll look it up on YouTube and see his video

[graceful inlet]

💀 thats kinda... pathetic

[trim saddle]

and the more we talk about him, the more attention he gets, Ive been treating him like "the one we must not mention"

[graceful inlet]

yeah youre right.. my bad. its just that his videos really piss me off

[trim saddle]

I understand and agree, but there are better things to spend your energy and thoughts on 🙂

[obsidian wyvern]

it's awesome how much people are turning on him with this video, thriving off that negativity

he straight up doesn't deserve a platform

and it's crazy 343 still shout him out and stuff with all the lies he regularly makes videos/tweets on

[jade gust]

I wish I could find it but I spoke about it on Twitter and how recasts happen in the industry all the time. Not to mention that the dialogue in the early builds of Halo 4 was most likely just temp audio

[graceful inlet]

i would ban him...

[obsidian wyvern]

he got banned from 5 for smurfing

and then had the audacity to complain about smurfing being a problem

[graceful inlet]

especially if I were halo studios, I'd never support him... I think I saw his name on the world championship and it kinda confused me. How can a guy like that get support from someone he hates on

I really dont undertand how HE can have 200K+ subscribers

[obsidian wyvern]

because people see his trick videos, which turned out to be mods for the most part

[steady jolt]

I try my best not to engage with the discussions, but I just do not understand that video. It's been over 12 years, why are we bringing this sup and trying to cause drama. There's absolutely no reason for it, it's just sad :/

[molten pelican]

I liked his trick videos when he used to post those

[molten pelican]

nevermind

[obsidian wyvern]

lol

[obsidian wyvern]

it's the title that annoys me most

[amber mirage]

When your job revolves around one super niche thing, you've gotta find a way to milk every cent.

[obsidian wyvern]

I think we should try move him on from this job 🙏

go be a bad content creator in another community

[molten pelican]

I mean it's just a channel, people don't have to watch him lol

However It does seem like there are very few solid halo channels out there

[fickle drift]

I wasn't aware there were any left.

[molten pelican]

Just some gameplay one's

[amber mirage]

One can dream

[fickle drift]

The odd interesting video sure but not channels holistically.

[molten pelican]

There is this one channel I forgot the name of lemme look it up

It's just halo
3 multiplayer gameplay lol

FatRat but he hasn't posted in like a year lol

[fickle drift]

See cause I'd have said Silver but he's gone quiet as well.

[molten pelican]

Yeah the good ones were from some years ago

FatRat has good gameplay videos he's very talented

Actually there are some good speed run channels but that's a very specific audience, like halo completionist

[hasty zinc]

I think the worst part is the echo chamber in the comments, it's like he makes the titles of the videos like that so people will just go in and comment because he knows it will get engagement

[molten pelican]

Which one are you talking about

Oh yeah obviously mints lol

[hasty zinc]

oh my discord wasn't caught up

oops

[jade gust]

It do be like that

[fickle drift]

Oh Mint's milking confirmation bias sure, cause he doesn't have the talent or desire to diversify his content or offer any valuable insight.

[molten pelican]

The smaller achievement guide channels are a life saver

[hasty zinc]

maka

[jade gust]

Only reason is to stir up controversy within the community as there's not much in the way of news for the next game. Easier to get people mad over 12 year old info

[fickle drift]

Shoutout to The Respawn Zone though, guy's still keeping up to date with the weekly Moas lol

[jade gust]

Oh worm. Didn't know people were still going for those

[molten pelican]

I'm not sure that halo is a very popular subject on YouTube especially because of games like fortnite and COD so they have to rely on controversial stuff for views

I don't know if a lot of people actually watch casual halo content

[obsidian wyvern]

I see him in games every few days at least

played infinite btb with him a while back

[fickle drift]

That's good, might be waiting until the next title before making new guides I suppose.
Though he could update his H3 one to factor Mythic in that'd be nice.

[molten pelican]

Il have to look him up, I'm pretty sure I've watched his videos without noticing his name

[obsidian wyvern]

hes halo completionist

[molten pelican]

Oh lol

Yeah I use him all the time

[jade gust]

Given some stuff I see from CODtubers, it seems like they're not doing much better. Doesn't help that I have no clue what's going on these days in regards to what COD is trying to be as it claims to be going for realism but then you have weird undead cyborgs with internal organs exposed working for the CIA or something as a multiplayer character

Like, last I checked, undead cyborgs aren't a thing

[obsidian wyvern]

I hate the inconsistent art style

[fickle drift]

Nicki Minaj in WW2 or smth idk

[obsidian wyvern]

yeah bruh

[jade gust]

Oh yeah, that happened too

[fossil skiff]

Huhhhhh

[molten pelican]

I've never liked games with inconsistent art style, always lose interest, I liked when everyone looks like soldiers lol

[jade gust]

Didn't WW2 also feature a laser gun from Advanced Warfare too?

[unborn garden]

where can i find mates for ranked mode

[hasty zinc]

#lfg-competitive

[obsidian wyvern]

idk about ww2 but blops has a few laser guns

[molten pelican]

That's actually a reason I never got into fortnite

[amber mirage]

I got kinda bored of everyone looking like soldiers when it was the only thing you got during the 360/PS3 generation. Was cool for a bit but started to get boring.

[molten pelican]

More immersive for me

[obsidian wyvern]

Fortnite was just built like that at the start so it didn't affect me

[molten pelican]

Battlebit is more immersive than cod these days haha

[molten pelican]

Right so I'm not dogging on it jus why I don't play it I'm not drawn to that style

[jade gust]

Yeah, Fortnite is inherently better for wacky stuff as it's been that way from day one

[fickle drift]

Okay granted this skin was for MWII so not as egregious I guess lol

[jade gust]

And like, sure, Zombies is wacky but the wacky stuff was directly inspired by stuff like 40s sci-fi for the ray gun or made to look like something that's cobbled together with tech of the time like BLOPS' thundergun

[molten pelican]

2020 warzone for the most part has consistent skins from what I remember

That's really what I played besides ghosts and the old MWs

[jade gust]

But why do I see people running round in comical rat heads fighting Homelander with a gun that looks more at home in a fantasy setting?

[molten pelican]

I played COD ghosts on a Wii U lmao

[amber mirage]

CoD is the ultimate fantasy game

The power fantasy

[jade gust]

I get a better one of those from Halo

[amber mirage]

Can't be Homelander in Halo

[jade gust]

I'd rather not be

[molten pelican]

At least halo is sort of consistent yeah

[jade gust]

Everyone knows Superman is better than Homelander

[molten pelican]

Excluding cat ears

[fickle drift]

I'm sure he poached some of Superman's Injustice moveset in MK

[molten pelican]

I'm based I swear

[fickle drift]

Second Sister could've had cat ears. But alas.

[jade gust]

Anyway, Halo has always had something that's dumb or funny thanks to the Grunts being written the way they were in CE and getting stuff like Hayabusa in Halo 3, allowing stuff like the fracture stuff to work in a multiplayer context in Infinite. I think some fit in Halo more than others but that's just the nature of pushing what does and doesn't work

[jade gust]

She would've made it out if she did

[molten pelican]

Cat ears don't fit in halo

[amber mirage]

Unbased confirmed

[molten pelican]

Theres a reason kat died

[amber mirage]

She didn't have the ears

[unique finch]

I dont care, give me cat ears on all helmets
Now!!!!

[molten pelican]

Yeah I was gonna say it was because she got shot in the head

[jade gust]

The ears would've saved her

[fossil skiff]

That’s what happens when you don’t look both ways just saying

[amber mirage]

If she had the ears on her helmet, she would've heard that loud phantom engine

[molten pelican]

It seems I am the only right person here, how unfortunate

[fickle drift]

I will say I'm glad that they're designed to be helmet attachments and not literal like, organic looking ears.

So there's a compromise in terms of doing the silly but making it work.

[jade gust]

Yeah

[unique finch]

Its all Kat's fault for dying
Severe skill issue

[fickle drift]

Plus they remind me of Celty so.

https://tenor.com/view/durarara-celty-helmet-riding-fast-drive-gif-13726351

[jade gust]

Like, if they were organic looking ears on top of a solid helmet, I'd dislike them

[molten pelican]

Why can't we just have actual cats in the game

[jade gust]

I still need to watch that

[unique finch]

CAT ON SHOULDER

And when you die he runs away

[molten pelican]

Also @obsidian wyvern actually why the hell cant I high five Marvin before a TF match, It makes me deeply sad

[jade gust]

Because we are fighting to protect cats

[obsidian wyvern]

skill issue

..how have u already unlocked Marvin

[molten pelican]

Because he is cool

[molten pelican]

Is there a button I'm missing

I can't continue like this

[obsidian wyvern]

I don't think so

I can't remember but there might be a

[molten pelican]

Il look it up

[obsidian wyvern]

an animation for it which is just chance based

[molten pelican]

No

[obsidian wyvern]

or maybe it's the 6-4 pilots who high five you

[molten pelican]

They did this on purpose

Actually maniacal

[molten pelican]

Maybe it's that, but Marvin's hand remains hopelessly high-five-less

[fickle drift]

Durarara!! is a blast, highly recommend

[jade gust]

I think we talked about it before XD. But don't worry, it's on my list

[obsidian wyvern]

I think you did lol because I remember this convo too

[amber mirage]

I don't. Repeat it word for word.

[jade gust]

Oh worm, that's from back before my name change

[hasty zinc]

could I inquire about the term "worm"?

is it like "wow"?

[jade gust]

Kinda

I picked up the habit of saying "Oh worm" from someone I used to know

[obsidian wyvern]

always thought he misheard the phrase "oh word" lol

[candid tusk]

Word.

[jade gust]

Ok, that would've been funny

[regal cradle]

Nah I’m playin idek what I’m talkin about lmao

[fickle drift]

Good morning or evening

[obsidian wyvern]

bruh

possibly just wasting someone else's money smh

[molten pelican]

lmao

[trim saddle]

we have those holographic bunny ears, so why not a holo kitty on my shoulder?

[molten pelican]

Or a real kitty on your shoulder

[trim saddle]

holo would be easier for them for sure since we dont have cloth physics currently.

[molten pelican]

I would rather do what's right than what's easy

Someone wiser than me once told me that many moons ago

[trim saddle]

yes but this is about a videogame.

Considering the animals in the campaign were mostly cut, i dont think they can add a cat. unless they just reskin one of those gopher looking things? either way the cat will need to be shorthair lol

[jade gust]

It'd be a bit more than a simple reskin to make a cat

[torpid zephyr]

Holopuppy is canon in infinite

[jade gust]

I don't need that one

[torpid zephyr]

#1308142775669231759 message

See? Holopuppy

Give us a cosmetic now

[jade gust]

Seeing a picture of one won't change my mind. Cats are better

[exotic heart]

hey anyone elses game not loading my infinite is just froze

[trim saddle]

is it at the loading screen before the match? if so then just reload the game. happens a few times a day for me.

[exotic heart]

its the game starting up thats its froze at

[covert dove]

[exotic heart]

nothing online is helping

[uneven halo]

Ita because implementing more micro transactions is more important than making a good game

[torpid zephyr]

Nvidia graphics card moment

I am staggered by the lack of support the pc infinite team can provide. I’m sure they’re underfunded and I sympathize but between the anticheat bug and Infinite being incompatible with the last TWO GeForce drivers, requiring me to convince my friends to rollback their drivers for one night so we can play our game. That’s so silly

[hasty zinc]

https://tenor.com/bkY4z.gif

[unique finch]

What's the best way to grind XP? been trying firefight but i have no idea if there's a faster way.

[jade gust]

Firefight's best for getting exp without fighting other players, but BTB is the best due to an exp multiplier

[obsidian wyvern]

what game

[fast raptor]

Ngl I hope we can get a mode like breakout from halo 5 again

That was like one of the good parts of halo 5

[covert dove]

🙂

[willow hamlet]

(I copied and pasted this from a convo with my brother cuz im too lazy to retype it)

I had a dream last night that moistcritical was a cosmetic option in halo and it just swappedbout the spartan armor worn by the player with an unblinking model of himself. There was also a weapon called the Moist beam that was a supercharged water gun

[unique finch]

Yeah, i suck at PvP

[dawn marten]

Bored so I'm watching the hobbit

[jade gust]

That's fair, I say stick with Firefight then, you'll normally get people who are going to focus on fighting the enemies too

[pliant hatch]

good movie to have on in the background.

[fickle drift]

speaking of movies, anyone here ever watched this one really dark animated film called 9?

its not R-rated but man is it grim as heck

[split kestrel]

You did not just make me remember that movie

I was forced to watch it at the age of 8 years old and holy crap

I will never forget it

[willow hamlet]

My mom wouldnt let me watch it as a kid cuz she thought it was too scary

[fickle drift]

wow... must've been traumatized. Sorry to hear that

[fickle drift]

it can get pretty spooky at times, its a more "mature" kind of animated film

the type we sadly don't see much of these days

[split kestrel]

Oh yeah, hell even with me being an Adult I would rather watch SAW than that ever again

[fickle drift]

fair

[willow hamlet]

Oddly enough my mom let me watch the uncut version of white chicks

[fickle drift]

wat

[willow hamlet]

I love that movie

The unrated version

[fickle drift]

doesn't unrated mean more adult than Rated R?

[willow hamlet]

Ye

I cant go into detail thats how inappropriate it got lol

Anyways im off to pursue my college education, have w good one yall

[frosty nova]

Might be a dumb question

Is there any website or artist I can find that has done Floor armor/coatings without the flood elements?

I’ve been wanting to play a Rusalka pre-infection and have cross referenced all her armor parts to items that can be gotten in season 1 heroes of reach. BUT her coating, any help would be greatly appreciated

[floral pollen]

Default Rusulka is just Cadet Purple I think

I made the kit of it once, de-floodified

[trim saddle]

i saw that 🧐

[frosty nova]

I double checked, the cadet purple seems to be a more Muted purple, the Rusalka is more vibrant

[floral pollen]

I'll remake it quickly and put screenshots in https://discord.com/channels/471722331820130324/1164394180676681798

I don't think there's an exact coating, but Cadet Purple is one of the closest I could find at least

[frosty nova]

That’s unfortunate. That 1 crucial elements is missing. All other MkV kits have every piece available even the Infected Jorge

[floral pollen]

I think the purple Flood-covered coating is the second best, but I think its still about the same shade as Cadet Purple

[frosty nova]

Yea that coating is very sick

[floral pollen]

Cadet Violet is the one I was thinking of, not Purple

[hasty sky]

Hello where is the meme chat

[floral pollen]

there is none

[fickle drift]

[hasty sky]

Damn..

[pallid plover]

Hey, anyone up for some modded MCC Slayer?

I wish

[meager linden]

Good night Spartans

[warm plume]

Yeah you do

[mortal spear]

ok cool. Makes those achievements a little easier to get I guess. now all i need is a friend

wait, why does good say that 343 removed campaign coop.. is that true?

Good night. 🫂🫡

[proud silo]

I know Halo CE on MCC normally only supports 2 players in coop, but what's the maximum you can have? I've seen people play with 4 players at once - can you do that with MCC on Steam with a specific mod?

[granite sky]

i havent heard of any such mods. halo 1 has 2 player campaign limit far as i know. where did u see 4 people play halo 1 co-op?

[proud silo]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ck3RmQ1aHhc This video. There's a link to this in the description but idk if this is the same thing https://github.com/WinterSquire/AlphaRing

[haughty comet]

right, favourite halo game

tell me

[rare cedar]

[fossil skiff]

Spartan strike

[crude jasper]

Reach

[stable pier]

why is your name baguete

[green solar]

not now but i would be at some point?! what kind of mods?

[molten pelican]

#lfg-customs

[hexed geyser]

when halo 7 comes out HS should have a Recap tv thingy for 1-Infinte (like they did in halo 4 (it would have to be in the 1st mission

[crude jasper]

That’ll be awesome if they did that

But we’ll have to wait till after the CE remake

[warm plume]

Underrated pick but halo

[hexed geyser]

i say that cuz there'll be people new to halo so i thought that will get new players up to speed

[warm plume]

True

Speaking of 7, this is a far fetched idea but imagine having access to the entire weapon Sandbox

Unsc, covenant, forerunner etc from reach all the way to infinite

[hexed geyser]

guys i own every Crash game on ps1 except Bash should i get that (& Get the og Xbox vers of the 6th gen crash games

[willow hamlet]

I think i still have that one lying around somewhere.

Never got to play it cuz my brother took the og xbox with him when he moved

[lethal sand]

box

[hexed geyser]

do you mean twinsanity or Wrath of cortex

[crude jasper]

My favorite halo

[warm plume]

Ironic

[crude jasper]

Very much so

[cosmic basalt]

This new Halo 2 playlist on Infinite has kept me coming back almost nightly for more.

[warm plume]

Don’t get me started on the legacy maps

Especially with the old movement you feel right at home

[cosmic basalt]

Couldn't have said it better, friend.

[crude jasper]

The new update actually got me playing halo multiplayer again on mcc after playing that mode for a bit

[cosmic basalt]

If only the voice chat was the same... lmao

[crude jasper]

Ya

[cosmic basalt]

I tried to search for halo 2 games on MCC and couldn't find any after like 5-10 minutes so I went back to finish the seasons I didn't yet on Infinite

[hexed geyser]

& Reach were my child hood

idk why i skipped 3

[warm plume]

It’s fine

[cosmic basalt]

Halo 3 custom games with the boys™️

nothing better

[warm plume]

Your choices are still phenomenal regardless

[crude jasper]

I actually used to play a lot of reaches multiplayer so I went back to that

[warm plume]

Fr

[crude jasper]

Reach and (unfortunately) 5 was my childhood

[cosmic basalt]

This guy knows whats up

[hexed geyser]

bro thought odst was 3 so thats why we accidentally skipped it

[warm plume]

I’ve been playing since 2014…. Man does the time fly by

[crude jasper]

Multiplayer was good campaign sucked

It does

[cosmic basalt]

Nothing beats those OG online days with the 360.

[warm plume]

Split screen with the boys was one hell of an experience

[crude jasper]

Agreed

[cosmic basalt]

Halo on Halo, Duck Hunt, Tremors and Rats, so many modes I'd kill to play again

[warm plume]

Invasion on reach was incredible

God do I miss playable elites

[cosmic basalt]

I will never talk bad on a halo before Halo 4, but Halo 3 had the best forge, custom games, etc... (I'm biased)

[crude jasper]

One of my favorite modes

[hexed geyser]

i thought there should of been a joke of GameCube era Peach & Cortana sharing VA's in 3

[crude jasper]

To bad no one plays it anymore

[warm plume]

Yeah :/

[cosmic basalt]

I went to Destiny and then D2.... from Alpha to about 3 months ago

[hexed geyser]

maybe any halo game could've made that joke

[cosmic basalt]

Pantheon broke me, not the game itself, but the toxic community... brought me back to simpler times.

[crude jasper]

I enjoyed the campaign and some of the multiplayer but halo five is when halo got bad for me

[winter flame]

Halo 3 AR sound

[lethal sand]

Halo 5 was fine for me because I care about gameplay

[warm plume]

Fair

[lethal sand]

I dont worry too much about story

if the gameplay is bad then I dont like it

[cosmic basalt]

That's a totally respectable take

Personally I'm a big lore nerd

[winter flame]

It was so bad but it’s also nostalgic now so I wouldn’t change it

[hexed geyser]

should HS bring back the old warthog honks for halo 7

[crude jasper]

Gameplay was awesome I’ll admit that but it was the bad story that for to me

[lethal sand]

[cosmic basalt]

After playing the Halo 2 playlist on infinite almost exclusively I can say that sprint ruined that classic Halo feel for me

[warm plume]

Tbh the only things which made halo 5 hated was the campaign and rec packs

[crude jasper]

Those are actually my main problems with 5

[lethal sand]

Sprint is meh

for me it doesnt cause a huge effect

[crude jasper]

I’m a guy that gets really into the lore of halo and just loves the story and 5 kind of ruined some of it for me

[lethal sand]

well my first Halo was Halo 5 so idk

[cosmic basalt]

If it's an armor mod, that's fine... but this isn't COD. I want to have a moderately fast walk speed and to be able to out shoot, not out run someone.

[crude jasper]

Same

[lethal sand]

I can see why people dont like the story

[warm plume]

I feel you on that

[lethal sand]

in Halo 5 nothing happens

you don’t do much

[crude jasper]

Basically just canceled out the ending of 4

[warm plume]

Cortana coming back as forerunner was kinda dumb, it ruined the impact of halo 4’s ending

[lethal sand]

Basically yeah

[warm plume]

Yeah

[lethal sand]

Halo 4’s story was better than Halo 5’s story

[crude jasper]

Definitely

[warm plume]

It’s gameplay however…

It could use some improvement

[crude jasper]

It’s good on multiplayer and gameplay

[warm plume]

True

[lethal sand]

I mean, if I were to recall the biggest impact from Halo 5, it would be like

[crude jasper]

I actually grew up playing a lot of the multiplayer( as well as reach) I did have fun with it

[lethal sand]

idk

[lethal sand]

I prefer Halo 5’s gameplay than Halo 4’s

[crude jasper]

Ya

[lethal sand]

but I only play canpaign

I dont have Xbox Live to play multiplayer

[crude jasper]

Oof

[warm plume]

At least infinites multiplayer is free

[crude jasper]

Ye

[lethal sand]

yeah

what

[warm plume]

Good lord, going back into halo 2 legendary. I’m surprised the sniper jackal is the most hated enemy

[crude jasper]

The biggest impact was Locke getting his butt kicked by chief

[lethal sand]

idk about that

[lethal sand]

I guess

[warm plume]

Personally I think the drones are far worse

[lethal sand]

but I mean story wise

[crude jasper]

Agreed

[warm plume]

Those buggers absolutely take up all of your ammo

[lethal sand]

I hate the drones

[crude jasper]

There really is now big impact story wise in my opinion

[crude jasper]

Yep

Plus rocket flood in ce

[lethal sand]

maybe its the Infinity finding Zeta Halo?

[warm plume]

A source of nightmares

[lethal sand]

did Infinity find Zeta Halo while escaping Cortana or later

[crude jasper]

Later

[warm plume]

Halo 2’s have target lock….

[lethal sand]

because Halo Infinite starts with the view of Zeta Halo directly from the legendary ending of Halo 5

[lethal sand]

oh

then idk then

[crude jasper]

In the book bad blood the infinity actually goes to Saint Helios to get Chief and blue team and fireteam Osiris

[lethal sand]

I guess Blue Team being saved by Osiris

[crude jasper]

Ye

[lethal sand]

but people hate on Halo 5 a little too much

I get the story issue

[warm plume]

Yeah

[lethal sand]

there wasn’t that big of an impact there story wise

but the gameplay was cool

and the graphics were also cool

[crude jasper]

That’s honestly the only issue with me

The story

[warm plume]

Mind you halo is one of those games where it’s popular is mainly driven by the story as a pose to the multiplayer

[crude jasper]

Plus it felt like chief got side charactered by his own story

[lethal sand]

multiplayer is still popular but yeah

[warm plume]

Infact CE had its multiplayer mode added as a last addition

[cobalt jewel]

Story, artstyle, and the req packs were the issues I had with halo 5. Gameplay was fun I'll to be honest

[lethal sand]

story is one of the main parts

[warm plume]

Yeah

[crude jasper]

Did not know that

[lethal sand]

I didnt care about the art style

[lethal sand]

I dont think CE was built for multiplayer at first

so they added that later once they built it

[crude jasper]

I thought the art style was mid

[cobalt jewel]

I cared a lot about it, 5's style was so... odd

[lethal sand]

I didnt really care

it was better than Halo 4’s

[cobalt jewel]

The classic style is recognizable and iconic

[lethal sand]

yeah

[warm plume]

Welp now you do pal

[crude jasper]

I can see that

[crude jasper]

Thank you very much

[warm plume]

You’re welcome!

[lethal sand]

but the graphics were cool

like in general

the effects were awesome

[crude jasper]

Agreed

Ye

[lethal sand]

and I really liked the environments

my favorite is the first level

[inner bear]

Would anyone knows how to show my halo 3 and Reach achievements which both games I have completed 100% but it’s not showing my gamerscore. I’m aware there’s syncing issue but how do I get around to that

[lethal sand]

is that like on MCC

[inner bear]

No the original games 360

I’m an OG lol

[lethal sand]

did it give you the achievements?

[warm plume]

Damn

[inner bear]

I have both games unlocked everything but it’s not syncing my achievements for some reasons

[crude jasper]

I gotta admit the music in 5 was awesome honestly chefs kiss

[inner bear]

If I go to my achievements and scroll down it says that I have it unlocked but the score isn’t showing

[warm plume]

Arby approved

[crude jasper]

Ha

[inner bear]

ODST too damn I didn’t realize I’ve got all achievements

How to bypass that

[warm plume]

That game has hardcoded my brain to think of rain whenever I see something related to an odst in any way

[green solar]

@crude jasper i swear ive seen you in custom lobbies before! 🤔

[mellow orchid]

Idk why but this songs been stuck in my head and heart today so wanted to share it with others: https://youtu.be/TuyisGsNr4g?si=dIsWYHX7zBKjQd1H

[lethal sand]

I think 360 games dont give gamerscore?

I have 0 clue, dont take it from me

[crude jasper]

Maybe

[hexed geyser]

they do

[crude jasper]

Where do you think you seen me in custom games

[green solar]

do you hang around social lobbies sometimes?

[lethal sand]

then I dont know

[crude jasper]

Wdym

[green solar]

if you dont know what i mean im probably wrong haha. is thel vadamee a canon elite or something

[wise pecan]

Hi everyone

[hexed geyser]

for my 6y/o bro's 7th bday he's planning on getting a switch for a present

[crude jasper]

He’s the arbiter in halo 2

[hexed geyser]

you guys weere right the Xbox would be confusing for him

[crude jasper]

That was his name before he became the arbiter

[green solar]

oh fair, i might be thinking of another guy with the same name xd

[crude jasper]

lol

I officially hate the halo flood with a shotgun they just insta kill your when you turn a corner

[crude jasper]

Actually thel ‘Vadamee isn’t even my username on mcc so definitely not me

[green solar]

fair!

[zealous spear]

[crude jasper]

“What would you have your arbiter do.”

[green solar]

im not a huge halo buff haha sorry i just know what the games said nothing more

well all but infinite. and 5 since i forgot it and it isnt on pc

[cedar turret]

The games said, "Clean your room."

[warm plume]

“This armor suits you, but it cannot hide that mark.”

[bleak shoal]

Damn

I just finished Arcane

I'm in grief

[hasty sky]

i enjoyed star wars 9

[bleak shoal]

Edgerunners and now this

[hasty sky]

yes ok

now we are waiting for squid game 2

🗿

[celest gate]

Hello people

[hasty sky]

helllo kid

[peak sequoia]

Truth and reconciliation….

AAHHGGGGGGGG

[lethal sand]

happy birthday to your brother!

[lethal sand]

what

[peak sequoia]

I’m trying to do legendary ce campaign

[lethal sand]

yeah no goodluck

The Library is the worst level in Halo

in my opinion

I played it on Heroic and I can safely say, I am never touching that game again

[hexed geyser]

its in january

[bleak shoal]

[celest gate]

Not so personal opinion of mine: Halo 2 Is the MOST OVERRATED game of all time.

[fickle drift]

Ban this user

[celest gate]

I say this for 4 good reason's:

[bleak shoal]

I bet unpolished is one of them

[grizzled gazelle]

My thoughts on the Avenger: MA5K go brrrr

[lethal sand]

oh

happy early birthday to your brother!!!

[lethal sand]

dont start drama

[bleak shoal]

Bruh how???

[lethal sand]

[bleak shoal]

Halo 2 actually is unpolished.

[lethal sand]

idk

I feel like an argument is brewing

[lethal sand]

yeah I know

[bleak shoal]

Look idk I'm just guessing one of the guys 4 reasons

[celest gate]

1. The gameplay just feels.... IDK average it feels rather overhyped and whatnot.
2. Graphics just feel plain bad... granted, graphics ain't everything. but if 343 halo 2 graphics look much better than OG in one persons opinion then clearyly bungie messed something up
   (Granted the art style was meant for the lighting system of "Stencil Shadows" but i really wonder if the people @ bungie knew this and covered it up but when they realized the og build couldn't run they just had to build a game in 10 months

[fast raptor]

Would you mind explaining why the gameplay is average other than it just "seeming" overhyped

Respectfully,

[celest gate]

one minute i'm still giving my other 2 reasons

[bleak shoal]

I Low-key agree with the graphics though

[pliant hatch]

are you comparing h2a graphics with the og ones?

[celest gate]

Halo 2 anniversary

[bleak shoal]

So your telling me

[pliant hatch]

lmao

[bleak shoal]

If the halo 2 anniversary graphics looks better, isn't that the point???

It's not even a high bar to pass, this is a 2003 game your making remastered graphics for

[celest gate]

3. this game was RUSHED TO HELL & BACK. like how is it bungie had to nearly cancel halo 2 and redo it just to launch it in 10 months, and became the Game of all time instantly/ yet sonic 06 with 2 years of dev time, launched and it was absolute DOGWATER. like how is that possible?
   (Before you ask yes i am aware of what sega was making Sonic Team do at the time.)

[bleak shoal]

Have you ever seen Sonic 06? That was literally broken

You could play the game and then suddenly get flung out of the map

[pliant hatch]

umm, that's not helping your point lmao.

[celest gate]

yes i have thank goodness for ChaosX

[fast raptor]

What I will say is that h2A is beautiful but it's way too saturated

I liked the range of the original h2 more between vibrant scenes and darker ones

[bleak shoal]

Me or him/her?

[obsidian wyvern]

woooooo

[pliant hatch]

not you

[bleak shoal]

Ok

[brisk panther]

wooooo congratz

[obsidian wyvern]

just the LASO ones now, dk why it shows 95 though

[fast raptor]

I beat reach and odst on legendary and immediately jumped into halo 2 to macrodose myself with the hardest of the chief games

[bleak shoal]

For clarification though, the difference between the two rushed games, Sonic 06 and H2, is that one is actually playable. The other is downright broken and will ruin your experience

Does halo 2 suddenly ever glitch you out of the map? No

Does halo 2 ever suddenly softlock itself? No

Damn uhm lol

[fast raptor]

Also if halo 2 wasn't a little bit jank it wouldn't be considered one of the most technical fps games of it's time

Like, moon jumping, scope lunging, etc...

[celest gate]

Can i finish my thought pls i'm currently writing about the difficulty and how it breaks the games lore.

[cobalt jewel]

I thought we love jank

[fast raptor]

I love jank

[bleak shoal]

Yeah I love the sword fly and button combos

[cobalt jewel]

Jankiness is a feature

"If it broke don't fix!"

[pliant hatch]

well so far you're 0 for 3, but maybe this one will be good.

[fast raptor]

And if we completely ignore SMG starts the multiplayer was just, perfect

[molten pelican]

Awesome man

[celest gate]

4 THE DIFFICULY SPIKE IS ABSURDLY BAD!! ppl like Hiddenxperia talk so highly of Halo 2 yet they tend to get frustrated about halo 2's legendary.
On legendary your shields will go down in 4-1 shot and Jakal snipers will up and 1 shot you if not careful. which breaks the lore of MK 6 armor:
The Shields are supposed to recharge faster and be much stranger compared to MK V. yet can go down in 1 regular plasma pistol shot under the right circumstances ( i know that wouldn't happen but anyways) it feels much like a serious downgrade.
It's as if they actually gave Chief MK IV armour with WEAK AF shields instead of MK 6

[hasty zinc]

idk man, it's just a video game lol

[bleak shoal]

Also tbf, the development for Sonic 06 was hell. More than half the studio got moved to work on other games

[fast raptor]

have I gotta pull out the dark souls motto

[muted rose]

Genuinely it would apply here

[bleak shoal]

Maybe just don't play the legendary if your bad

You still have easy difficulty

[fast raptor]

I mean legendary isn't even the canon difficulty so idk why it matters

[celest gate]

LASO is an utter nightmare:
IT's one thing if the difficulty breaks the games lore. its another when only 2 people (Penguinz0 and some other guy, i forgot his name) Beat Halo 2's laso without dying.

[bleak shoal]

Yeah true

[hasty zinc]

having the game being lore accurate for damage would be awful

[bleak shoal]

OMG. ITS LIKE LASO IS SUPPOSE TO BE LIKE THAT

[obsidian wyvern]

my halo 2 LASO reset a few missions in 😁 😁

[bleak shoal]

LASO IS MEANT TO BE THE ULTIMATE MAKE YOU CRASH OUT DIFFICULTY WHAT

[celest gate]

This is just my opinion though so Would You Kindly take this take on halo 2 with 2 grains of salt
