Halo |OT 20| It really does feel like Halo

How do you know it isn't like Halo 4 where you can skip the killcam and do exactly that?






I see literally no negatives in seeing how you died. It's actually quite a nice thing to watch instead of monitoring your dead body/teammates.

You would rather watch a replay of you losing a battle than watch something that could provide valuable information when you respawn?

You mean like in Halo 4 where you hit X and immediately respawn? You mean like that?

Why aren't people feeling the killcams? They respawn time is still set, this simply changes what you see while dead.

Because Halo is its own game and doesn't need to just be grabbing features from other games to make itself more "modern" (i.e. generic). Killcams give too much information away, also. Players should pass their time watching the third person teammate cams to help give them an idea where their team is at, what's happening, and what to do when they spawn.

No, I mean like in 4 where you hit a button and watch the spawn timer tick down.
Just teasing you mate.

I can't say I'm surprised they added loadouts and killcams. I'm not even that mad as long as that shit don't touch the real Halo games. Anniversary is a superficial one-off and I can't force myself to care about it. It's just an unfortunate indicator that 343 wankery will continue on into Halo 5.

Watching this gameplay in 30fps seems pointless :| Like yup, that's Halo 3.

Ugh disappointing I'm just gonna go get food.

So, every map has a top-down schematic view during loading. Nice.
Was afraid they'd only have them for Halo 2 Anniversary maps.

These matches need to be like 2-3 minutes long max so we can just riffle through the maps.

And this guy playing currently is... bad.
 
If we're just gonna be seeing 30fps gameplay then I only want to see new Halo 2 anniversary stuff. Don't show old games unless we get to see it at a buttery 60fps

I feel another 2 Dev montage coming on.

That was almost as bad as the hornet flipping.

And this is confirming Halo 3 will be the go to game for me, still looks so good.
 
Dammit, IGN, I didn't want to edit another video so soon. I don't have the time.

EDIT: like, I get that not everyone is an MLG 1337 pro sauce, but at a certain point it's like an infant trying to drive a car. It's cute, but you're not fulfilling the purpose of the car.

Wow guys have you forgotten their Halo 5 Beta first look? It reinforced "fair starts" with the same weapon as the other spartans on the field.

Chillax bruthas.

Halo 5 BETA, not what the full game will be. Full game will most likely be a cluster fuck.

I have a feeling they're going to segregate arena Halo and Halo 4 tots. The latter of which we probably won't see for a while, until they've fooled us into believing Halo 5 will be legit.

That hilarious death pose is the reason I don't want killcams ahah
