Stuff like this is why I can't get too hyped for MCC.

Then get ready for TJ Slayer. SMG starts, movement speed set to 10%. All BTB. No scrubs. Believe.

 

[GringoSuave89]

my first thought here was "why are there red stripes on their necks and belts? they arent supposed to have those!"

that made me feel old

Death comes for us all

Your sarcasm is not lost on me, but 50 people quote him and you pick me to say something to, lol.

Spartan Ops is the only part of a Halo game I didn't finish or play much of. Now, if Spartan Ops was just a feature of Firefight (AI scripting, Drop Pods, etc.), then that would've been exponentially more attractive ;]

Cause you replied in the form of something other than a wall of animated gifs. Thought, perhaps you had something worthwhile to offer.

 

[Akai__]

The standard Guardian map is pretty bad, yeah.

MLG Odball or MLG Slayer are both great on Guardian, though.

 

[VinFTW]

I actually don't remember my first game in Halo 3 (not in beta)... Hmm...

I'll never forget my first game in Halo 2. Was head to head on Lockout. Dominated that fool with the sword.

I didn't even mean that post as an insult towards 343. The sad truth, whether that guy was joking or not, is that some people actually believe SMG/AR starts are the proper way to play BTB.

You guys have to cater to everyone, and I get that. Thus why I temper my hype, because I know I'm gonna have to probably play a lot of shit I don't want to in MCC.

I mean, it goes without saying, I'm gonna play more MCC than 90% of people on this forum, I'm loyal to a fault when it comes to Halo.

Halo 5

I have a better idea: Historical scenarios. From books and new ones, perhaps even the Chief's campaign missions (ie the Spartan IVs study and "play through" the missions to learn).

 

[The Librarian]

Goldenboy just posted that... do you guys think it could be in relation to:

ESPORTS™

I think I know what this is about!

 

[Deception]

First game of Halo 3 was 8 player FFA on Guardian with a bunch of my buddies. We were all at max hype. Good times.

Spillllllllll!

Ogre 2 is probably the main character of Halo 5. Good way to kill off master chief.


IGN, Gamespot...TAKE NOTE! Make a bunch of articles and video discussions on false information, get paid for advertisements, and then quote Frankie 10 days after he already corrects me. Hire me, I know what's up.

There's a lot of people that think SMG/AR starts are the default deal across the board. It's Bungies fault for rolling that out originally.

Halo 1 pistol is OP bro. Scrub.

Sentinel Beam starts is the only way to play BTB.

Same here- my first H2 game was after the midnight release, Rumble Shotguns on Midship and I won handily.

I also just checked my H3 stats- besides having an abysmal k/d (1.3ish), the Laser was my 6th used weapon in the game- even more than the shotgun.

GLORIOUS LASER

 

[BigEvilTurtle]

First game of Halo 2 online was Head to Head on Foundation.

I got wrecked 6-9 but I was only 11 years old!

 

[thezerofire]

BR starts were only good for specific matches. Definitely not in BTB maps.

lol can't believe this is still an actually held opinion

 

[IHaveIce]

AR start lovers in 2014.


Help

Sounds like a good addition, as it doesn't really replace the idea of what I mentioned. If Firefight is to return, it would be awesome if we could tell the AI what to do and dictate where battles happen, etc.

Not saying for us to craft our own narratives with cutscenes and text (although that would be slick for Machinima), but to better allow for custom Firefight experiences.

 

[The Librarian]

First game of Halo 2 online was Team Slayer on Relic.

First game in Halo 3 Beta was Team Slayer on High Ground.

 

[Sephzilla]

Meh, I'm still fine with AR/SMG starts on small maps where the weapon can actually be worth half a crap. But BR starts are pretty much essential on anything that's mid/large sized.

 

[NobleGundam]

Ouch. It hurts.

Man I wanted see how SpOps Season 2 would've turned out to be. Is that how Spartan Assault and Strike were to be (excluding the top down gameplay) for the story?

[Nowise10]

If I pre-order The Masterchief Collection digitally on Xbox, will I have to wait until it hits 12:01 AM Pacific time, in order to play it? I don't want to wait 2 hours :|

 

[Sephzilla]

If I remember right my first game of Halo 2 I think was 1 Flag CTF on Zanzibar. I remember doing well.

Yeah, you're old. About as old as my father actually, hahaha. He still plays Halo to this day though so that's nice.

Unpossible.

I also forgot that if you move too fast from crouch in OG CE you stand up and get donged on.

Halo 1 - Chill out 1v1

Halo 2 - FFA Lockout

Halo 3 beta - FFA Territories on Valhalla

Halo 3 - FFA Guardian

Halo Reach beta - TS powerhouse

Halo Reach - BTB Paradiso (ewwwww)

Halo 4 - dunno

I think only Frankie or Tashi could reply and know the answer to this for sure but most games in the past few weeks that have been available for digital pre-ordering/pre-loading say they are playable at 12AM Eastern time so there's that. I'm pretty sure I read somewhere MS saying it was up to the makers of the game what time it was available so here's hoping 343 chooses 12AM Easter and not Pacific!
