Halo:CE more fair than Halo 2? LOL. Halo 2 has Jackal snipers and dual wielding Elites. As far as I'm aware, there are no monster closets. Everything is spawned in and can subsequently be killed. Halo:CE has monster closets in every Flood level. It's fair in the sense of AI ability, but definitely not in terms numbers.

I'll say this, the first 5 missions of CE hold up pretty well after 11 years. But the last 5 are old, awful gameplay that can quite frankly die in a bottomless pit, and only the CE purists would give a shit.

The Library and Keyes were the only two levels with monster closet Flood spawns. Those were also arguably the only two bad levels in the game. Two Betrayals is awesome, (especially the final big battle for the Banshee) and The Maw is pretty decent too. The problem with Halo 2 is that on Legendary you were often forced to shoot enemies from a distance because getting close means you die within 3 plasma bolts. In Halo 1 this wasn't the case at all which makes it more enjoyable since you've got a lot more options.

Halo 1 campaign foh lief

Morning HaloGAF... back to work on the Forge OT for me. So much to do with so little time. I'm currently sticking with:

Halo 4 Forge |OT| More than just a Shade of Grey

Since so few people have weighed in.

Halo 4 Forge |OT| Where YOU are the Arkitect
Halo 4 Forge |OT| If you build it, they will shun
Halo 4 Forge |OT| Cranes, Plains and SpartyMobiles
Halo 4 Forge |OT| Crafting a better tomorrow, one Brace, Large at a time
Halo 4 Forge |OT| The Foundation of your Imagination
Halo 4 Forge |OT| Veto for Colonnade

Spotted 20oz Game Fuel in the Bellevue Wal Mart here. Still no actual game fuel.

Stores still seem to have half normal Mt Dews and half halo 4 code normal dews. Weirdest rollout ever.

They probably have a whole bunch in the back but just restock them as needed. Nothing out of the ordinary.

When is the autoban thing going away Frankie?

Im still good and I played offline on a "player 1" account with the date changed to 11/7.

I also put 10 games in my tray afterwords to see if that helped not get caught even though I don't know why I should be "caught" playing a retail copy.

 

[Hydranockz]

Ask Hypertrooper.

He drives on the Autobahn!

Posted some impressions a few pages back but it was pretty late so it mostly got ignored lol

Also I didn't touch MP, only SP but I didn't see any references to groups at all.

Just caught up on the last couple of pages. Those Grunts and Jackals... abominations.


Also, surprised you guys didn't have BlindSwordsman banned.

Halo 4 Forge |OT| - #808080

I literally lol'ed.



So I added the level design resources... a lot of stuff by forgers and relating to forge and a few staple comprehensive level design articles relating to other games. Brought the character count to 18K. I'd say it is publishable about now. Probably add a little bit here or there throughout the day.

I was planning on waiting for the Halo 4 |OT| to be posted before I post it. If you guys feel otherwise and would like it posted sooner to say hold you over then I'd be cool with it. Would just feel a bit wrong to not have the game's OT that it is based off of... lol.
