Halo The Master Chief Collection |OT| Halo Never Died, It Was Just Missing In Action

Guys, I fucked up! I was going to go through all the campaigns in order only to find out that there is a playlist that does that for you and offers an achievement.

Looks like I have to run through Pillar of Autumn and Halo for the 500th time. :)

Does anyone know if the "complete the campaign" achievements unlock by playing through the Master Chief playlist?

This I'd also like to know... No way am I doing 1-3 again on legendary lol
 
Started Halo 1 at midnight. Destiny spoiled me with how well the movement and shooting is. But definitely excited to playthrough all the Halos! Got dominated online in the 2 matches I did. But mainly because I didn't know you had to change button layout for ALL Halos.

Still sucks that even lag/framerate issues on some cutscenes. I don't understand why this system sucks.

Yes, you need to have a little ability to overcome vehicles, but anyone can do it right off spawn. Better than later Halo games where they are literally unstoppable with a competent driver if you don't have a special weapon.

I tend to disagree with that. You can run up to a vehicle and board it in the other games, and you can bounce anything around that isn't a tank with a well placed grenade. You can even shoot the canopy out of the Scorpion and headshot the driver that way in all the games. But in H1, the vehicles never explode and kill instantly on touch, so it's just a battle of attrition getting back to the tank after you get shot out of it. Not fun IMO.

The picture I saw of a mocked-up Master Chief Collection JIRA inspired me to make an actual bug tracker to help organize everything that's going on and to make sure all the issues can be documented.

Everyone is welcome to help populate the site with content, please be mature and properly document the issues.

Did the server update go live? I've been stuck in the searching screen, couldn't play any game this afternoon.
 
Any UK gaffers want to play some co-op Halo 2 on legendary with me? Tried connecting to yanks and P2P handles varying connections like shit. No mic sadly, so I'll be quiet.

I'm up for it, but would you also be interested in Halo 1 legendary run? Want to re - beat all halos on legendary eventually.

The visual change to elites shields in h2a makes it harder to play. In the middle of battle it's very hard to tell which elite is shieled and which isn't. Also, the covenant weapons sound completely different. The sword just doesnt sound good at all.

Didn't get the memo regarding the 14th Amendment
Posting in this thread right now solely because it's page 117. But anyhow, I hope everything is working tonight.

I like the sounds, but I agree the elite's shields are too subtle. Still better than CEA, though. They just don't have any hit reactions in that :p

I like how unique the new sword sounds are but I agree they don't fit too well, the original's loud clash noise when you equipped it is still a great sound effect and fits the animation better.

I have the opposite opinion. I almost slammed my controller last night which is a rarity for me. I am of the opinion, my own, that "Assault on the control room" is one of the more poorly designe campaign mission of any fps. kept having deja-vu, stage just dragged forever (on heroic) and on top of being difficult, was just so repetitive with its environments. I passed, what, 3 sets of bridges, 5-7 circular rooms...

I was so pissed last night.

yes that mission have some repetition,can't argue with that.I personally don't really mind it though and it was pretty fast to go through these rooms for me.But I understand that it can be really tiresome.
I never said that game is perfect.There are some bad moments or even levels but it's not enough to ruin the game for me.For the most part Halo CE is still really great game in my opinion.

Awesome. Page 118.

I'm the Chief's estranged cousin who sometimes comes to holiday dinners and makes everyone feel awkward.

How do you Play Halo: CE MP?

I played the campaign when it came out but only played with my brother in MP split screen. I have no idea how to really play it competently though. I keep dying very quickly and have yet to really get a rhythm. I am ok with the rest but just can’t seem to get a grasp on this one. Having a hard time getting in games yesterday didn’t help.

Any tips?
