woosh. And personally, i'll continue to rag on the choices they make because of Halo 4 (and the subpar MCC), but not the people that make up the company.
unless its tashi, because he cant get an overkill.

Kinda says more about the general opinion of 343 than anything imo.
It's gone from "release a good halo game" to "just release a working game".
Kinda effs up the trust people have in them as a company.

nilla has Foundation done so far. I know there's a Beaver Creek in the works. Outside of those, I haven't found any other good ones yet. Hard when file sharing isn't up and running.

Yes, the combat in Halo CE is still unmatched IMO.
I don't know what it is exactly, but the combat has such a nice flow to it, at times it feels almost like a dance. So good.

This game has LAN?
Hey man, I'm not going to be able to make it by ten, so if there are alternates go ahead and give someone my spot.
I don't know about you guys but I'd rather have a good game that isn't working and needs to be fixed than a shitty game that runs perfectly? Halo 4 worked perfectly fine at launch. That did nothing to make it better or save its population (and by the time 343 had made a lot of improvements it was too late).
As always you guys fail to disappoint.

The explosions are so tiny... still looks good though.
I wonder if HaloGaf will ever recover from the blow that was Halo 4...
Same. Most of my old friends don't have Xbones so I don't have anyone to play Halo with;( Added some folks already and after finals and I come home I'll be on every night probs.

we are getting more of the same in Halo 5 so no.
Dunno if its an MCC thing or an Xbone thing. We had similar issues on Destiny so I think its an Xbone thing.
Well one things for sure, this party system horse shit is most definitely 343.

Exactly why I don't even try playing multiplayer anymore.
Also goes to show just how good the old halos are that people are willing to suffer through just to play them

So how many people actually made it into the match?
Your stream only showing as offline for me.
I'm seeing more that isn't the same than stuff that is.
Fixed fix
It never even recovered from Reach.
Pretty much, people give 343 shit, but the creator started the downward spiral.

Why can't they just increase base player movement. You do know Halo 5 base player movement is actually slower than H2A based on what has been shown.
I am all for mixing it up, thrusters or whatever. No way ADS and sprint should be there.

Halo 5 looks better the more I watch it. I am still very apprehensive about sprint and ground pound and still annoyed by the fake ADS. It takes up so much of the screen and the smart scopes are overly gaudy with odd visual frills that do nothing short of take up even more screen.
I wish they would just come out and say, "we at 343 industries had 'top men' analyze this industry and they determined that classic Halo, as you know and love, is no longer financially viable. Therefore, please don't assume you will get a Halo 1 or 2 experience in future releases."
Honestly, if they were that transparent I would still buy the game but be far less pissed off in the long run. I'm sick of hearing they want feedback but they seem to cherry pick the feedback that they agree with according to their own vision.
We need transparency and blunt honesty in this broken and shady industry.

if they want to tell classic Halo to fuck off, then they should be transparent. i agree. instead of sugar coating their bullshit.

I'd really like to see MS have 343 split in two with one group working on a classic halo game. The other side can do everything they ever wanted to do to halo, but under a new IP. That's sounds like a win win to me, but I'm not in the business so who knows. Stop the innovation nonsense for a game that doesn't need any innovation. Pour that creativity into a totally new game. Boom. Double profits.
I have a feeling not everyone wants to play halo 2 for every subsequent halo game.
This is where these guys seem to lose track of things. I personally, do not like Halo 2 much at all. I think 3 is the best Halo, and that seems to be a minority opinion on forums. So if you're a dev, it's impossible to make every Halo fan happy. The MCC is the best solution, if it would just fucking work.

Precisely. This game is too established to "refresh" and "modernize."
New IP's have the liberty of doing what they want because they establish the game as a whole. Even COD understands this basic concept to some degree.
If 343 wants Halo to be big in the e-sports culture then quit redefining the freaking sport and how it plays and its own rules. Refine it and update it. Don't make radical changes.
After playing the MCC I'm actually far less open to new features. I have played so much Halo 1 and 2 (albeit broken!) and I still can't believe they want to deviate from it. It's bewildering me.
You would think that our common demand for the simpler approach would give them relief because apparently they can't even fix a menu that supports games they never even made.
If Halo 5 deviates too far, as it seems it has ALREADY, then I'm done with this franchise.

That argument is bullshit as well. No one is asking for Halo 2 every game. there may be a few but this asinine viewpoint is like Don Matrick saying the 360 is for those with bad internet.

I'd still prefer a halo 3 over sprint, thrusters, ground pound, and all the other additions they're putting into the game.

Online connection is required to verify with XBL, but gameplay is over LAN for tournaments.

Yup, and most of us that love halo 2 the most would take halo 3 over reach and onward.
I'm just tired of them pretending they are keeping what we love and adding in changes, when in reality small changes (even things like grenade fuse times) effect the game in a huge way.
The fact that they have just now said, "oops ground pound does effect crouch jumping" just goes to show how far their heads are up their you know what in regards to classic halo combat and movement.
Go make a new game, like someone else said.
Quit saying your are making chocolate chip cookies, but adding nuts and raisins in it. STOP IT.

It's slightly better than the launch state and thats after what like 3 patches?
I think the problems are wayyyyy to deep and at some point 343 will just pull everyone to crunch on Halo 5.
It's going to take a while, but there's no way they leave this game broken.
