For those that like the competitive scene, Halo 2 10K announced for January.
Keeping up with 3 of these threads are impossible.

I feel like this is the best thread.
Has the least talk about resolutions which is a massive change from the rest of gaf.
At least people are excited to talkt Halo again
Yeah, it's cool to see how much the community has bounced back.

Still trying to get over it being talked about in public. I mentioned that I might be grabbing an Xbone to a guy at work and he immediately said "Master Chief collection right?"
The power!
It's an Ace for Microsoft, they need to really take advantage of it.
I've got a few friends jumping on board because of the collection.

Wasn't this already explained as older Forerunner tech not in use is lacklustre where the Halo 4 stuff they wanted to show current working Forerunner tech?
I'm always amazed at how scrutinized different game version graphics or models and more are, not just Halo either.

Burial Mounds in forge? I dunno, it doesn't seem that forge-able to me without using just an insane amount of pieces. Lots of rolling terrain and tunnels.
I do think they should do a forge reveal of some kind, like Nuevo Forge World where there are several setups for other Halo 2 maps.

I'd accept that answer.
Tashir needs to coordinate his communities into making podcasts and stuff.

I am too. I hope we get at least one new MP map reveal. I am hoping the dark horse will be Containment.
What's the Panel called 343 are having?

Dunno if it's been confirmed yet, in terms of place and time.

If you find it, do share.
The MCC is confirmed to be shown. There were earlier reports on Destructoid that it'd be playable for attendees but that's been debunked.

I just couldn't help myself in that thread about best FPS single player level of all time...(warning lots of images)
I think back when Bungie did them (Halo 3 era) they had a novelty and production value that has diminished as Youtube proliferated.
As for podcasts, they're always a ton of work. You need to have people willing to dedicate a huge amount of time to coordinating and editing them. Sounds like a good use of some of those community hires, though! Get on Lynda.com, learn yourself Logic or Pro Tools and then chain Frankie and co. to chairs for a few hours every month.

Omg, those Blur videos will be something gorgeous! OMG!
I guess that's a fine answer! I normally really don't care about stuff like this, but I had just played Halo 3 and 4 in relative succession and it struck me how much I prefer the Bungie aesthetic.
Also - Haven't been here long, but this does seem like a real nice community. I hope to play with some of you this November and beyond.
haha, thanks!

What if they announce remaster Coagulation which is the new forge world for H2A at RTX. Not the same layout as Halo Reach forge world but same idea tho.

Liking the influx of new peeps. Welcome to HaloGAF, newbies!
I'm assuming we are getting a Forge World type map, that has the terrain already there.
I think it would be so cool if the Halo 2 remastered multiplayer is functionally identical to the original and takes off.
Just the idea of playing Halo 2 on new, professionally designed maps after all these years is tantalizing (Assuming 343/Saber/Whomever decides to make new maps if the version is a hit).

Hell yeah, if you didn't already look at this Waypoint page it has dozens of screenshots from the Blur cutscenes. Just click the "show more button".
Thx, just found it by a guy called Greg Horn when doing that Halo 2 post in the fps thread. Yeah I play Halo 4 most week nights with a regular group of Aussies (mostly Melbourne based) that I've played with since Halo 2/3. We do LANs at my house 1-2 times a year. I try not to be an asshole as I usually only play with Aussies or New Zealanders because of international latency. GT the same as my username here, one GT for life babeee! I really should join a night of HaloGAF though, if they can stand me
Also every single Forerunner structure is now made out of a bunch of separate free-floating parts now? Like before Halo 3 there were probably a total of like 4 instances of floating Forerunner stuff but now it's basically everywhere for no reason.

Yeah, exactly. And then Relic island, and a little flat area for Sanctuary, Warlock, Turf, etc. I hope they put a lot of thought into what's forge-able and what's less so.

I can't think of anything free floating other sentinels in previous games forerunner tech wise.

I've posted this new thread about ideas for ODST2. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=843806
I've spent weeks thinking over the mechanics. Any suggestions / further tweaks would be welcomed.

Wow, the Prophet and the Arbiter... It's incredible and creepy at the same time.
Yeah, for the record, the only instances of floating Foreruner structures I can think of pre-Halo 4 are platform in the Library, the Delta Halo control room, and the rocket platform on Epitaph. It's fucking everywhere now. Maybe Halo Wars actually started the trend, but still it's on 343 for taking it to such a ridiculous extreme.

This ^
Any Halo PC vets here? I have questions.
Was the 180 glitch present in Halo PC?
Was the infinite ammo glitch present in Halo PC?
Were sidewinder and blood gulch escapable in halo pc?
Question for 343:
Are we getting the PC or Xbox version of sidewinder? (involves teleporters)
