I, for one, think that the Insurrectionist cause is completely and totally unjustified. Not only was it Earth which made the existence of these colonies possible, but their dedication toward a campaign of destruction targeted primarily toward innocent civilians, which has yielded the deaths of no less than 2 million on certain occasions, has revealed them as the mindless murderers that they are.

Their actions spit upon not only the homeworld from which they arose, but the human race as a whole, and no less but their complete subjugation or eradication should be the aim of the UNSC.

Such issues are vital and require address from the governing powers, but it warrants neither secession nor the abomnible acts through which the Innsurectionists hope to achieve it. Had the colonists made better efforts to articulate their demands, rather than carry out action against parties toward which their grievances are not directed, than perhaps military intervention need not have occured.

I admit that Halo 4's vehicle balance was problematic and binary due to loadouts (the necessity of spawning with a plasma pistol, the necessity of having a pilot class for those dumb perks), but the Mantis is easily avoided or countered if you aren't trash, and Halo 4 had the best BTB maps in the series by a mile. Like half the maps in the entire game, including DLC, are BTB maps.

Reach and 5 only have Forgeshit, and Reach was actually pretty okay in terms of vehicle play (especially turret gunning on the chopper) if you didn't mind DMR DMR DMR DMR DMR DMR DMR DMR DMR DMR DMR DMR and fifty thousand variants of Blood Gulch. The mode might as well not exist in 5, and 3 and prior were too laggy and limited.

Coinflip hitreg, push-to-talk, maps mostly unsuitably small for Big Team with minimal interior space (Halo 4's BTB maps do an excellent job of balancing interior and exterior space), no real BTB Forge potential until Reach.

Also, I hate to say it, but the DMR facilitated BTB really well, and you just can't have the same scale of ranged engagements with a BR.

He is wrong. The 4 Mantis needed another Mantis to take it down. You'd have to have like three people EMPing it to get close enough to jack, because the stomp shockwave range was insane AND an insta-kill.

>>157068350

>>157081790

Jetpack, you dense motherfucker.

Plasma pistol + jetpack is a one-man easy hijack. It's also the easiest target of all vehicles for ranged power weapons, of which there are shitloads in Halo 4 (especially with Ordnance on).
>>
>>157081790

The Mantis was an easy kill. The only way you'd survive long with it is if you hung back at your team's base and didn't engage except from whatever corner you holed up in.

>You'd have to have like three people EMPing it to get close enough to jack

Only if you're absolute shit
>>
>>157081790
>having trouble with the 4 Mantis
I mean, it was strong, but just hijack it then, nigga.
>>
>>157081967
If you're using jetpack on a map with a mantis, any decent player would have shot you down. Hell, the Mantis has homing rockets. Even if you EMP'd, the rockets would still hit you and then he'd walk away fine.
>>
>>157081654

Go fuck yourself, m8, if you don't like it you can leave
>>
>>157082116

That's why Halo 4 has sprint and interior spaces all over where the Mantis can't hit you, so if you don't suck you can always get to a spot to disable and engage it from the side instead of charging straight at it on an open field.

Mantis wasn't on those maps, and if you were in a Mantis and went near a tight space, you played the game wrong. So your best argument is that you played against people even worse than you are.

>>157082626

Mantis is on pretty much all the BTB maps and pretty much all the BTB maps have central and peripheral interior spaces where the Mantis can't get you to traverse the map. The only exception that springs to mind is Ragnarok (Valhalla), where you can (again) two-shot it with any of the copious sniper power weapons Halo 4 has.

Nah senpai, the DLC was lit and peeps actually bought it (unlike Reach) in part because they did a Season Pass, and also 6 out of 9 DLC maps were BTB.

5 BTB maps at launch is sure the heck better than Reach's 2.

The game had less than 100,000 total players per day by the time the very first DLC came out, and only one of those had a Mantis. The next map pack had less than 30,000 people.

For perspective, that's more than any FPS on Steam that isn't made by Valve.

>>157084604
Not "at any given time." That number is PER DAY. Steam measures all active players at a given time and the peak of the day of that number. Halo 4 was under any of those numbers when adding its total daily numbers together.

I think only Halo 3 measured players according to 24 hours. Reach and onward only provided measures for who was online at a single time. The infamous Halo 4 population graph only measured how many people were online at its most populous point each day.

I played the DLC maps all the time, man. 343 weighted them pretty heavily in the playlists. I remember being ecstatic when the first map pass was accidentally released for free and then they damage controlled it into a trial.

The only map nobody got to play much was Vertigo, next to Pitfall in that final DLC that wasn't part of the pass.

>>
>>157087107
That's good for you that you played a bad game. But you are one of few who played it, and that is all that needed to be said to win that argument.
The mantis launched on three maps, and your only strategy to beat it does not work on those maps. Anything after those is irrelevant because they were situations that nobody but you and less than a percent of the other people who bought the game even touched.

You have no argument because you are too trash to deal with the Mantis, nevermind being able to fucking SPAWN WITH TWO WEAPONS AND AN ARMOR ABILITY THAT HARD-COUNTER IT.

You are garbage at Halo; end of discussion. And Halo 4 is fundamentally the LEAST difficult Halo game to counter anything in, so you're even further irredeemable.

Reach never passed the population of 4. The overall player count is bugged and you have to add up each individual playlist to come to a number that has always been dramatically lower than 4 since 4 came out.

It comes with other shit aa well, thats not the only reason of course.

And for a game like Halo that lasts me 500+ hrs each installment, I dont feel guilty buying the top tier.

>>157091516

The player count in Reach has been bugged for some time but it wasn't then. Reach quickly surpasses Halo 4s population a couple of months after launch. I thought this was common knowledge?

What else does it come with?

>>157091516
That's not true at all. Reach rose back above 4's player count just a few months after 4 launched

Any proof for the alternate claim? Halo 4 having a tiny population isn't just a meme fella. Halos population was small as fuck post Halo 4, but Reach had a higher population and I'm not going to get involved into one of the >proof bait arguments

You obviously haven't been playing Halo very long if you didn't know Reach took over 4s population fairly quickly. Halo 4s population abandoned the game ridiculously fast. Halo 5 only held on somewhat because of the monthly updates and even then 343 are being very dubious with their numbers. If they're as good as they say they are, they would have release them.
>>
>>157092451
Reach had about 10,000 players on at any given time just last September, I find it hard to believe that Halo 4 would've has any higher

>Halo 5 only held on somewhat because of

pathetic scaremongering

does Reach have more population than 5 also?
>>
>>157093246
Anyone that isn't retarded can fathom that Reach had more players on than 4 during 4's lifetime aside from launch. It was the same with Reach and 3; people didn't buy the newer one because they were still playing the older one. And with 4, the people who bought the newer one dropped it in less than a month for BO2 or to go back to Reach where sprint was able to be turned off and custom games already existed.

Maybe it'll be something similar to that thing they did with H5 where you got like 5 premium packs a month and the packs were guaranteed to have good shit? Who knows.

Id like to see a return to paid map packs over microtransactions

Why dont we have population counters? Why do you frequently keep matching the same damn people in playlists? Hell, why do i even have a problem finding a game at all in some playlists?

Alright, I'll help you out a bit

https://majornelson.com/2013/07/24/live-activity-for-week-of-july-15/

Here's the activity chart for 9 months after Halo 4's release. While Halo 4 has closed the gap between it and Reach, Reach still hadn't caught up. Therefore, within quite a bit longer than a "couple months" after launch, Halo 4 still had more players than Reach.
>>
>>157093807

There are more people playing Halo 5 now than any other Halo game.

That is all that actually matters.
>>
>>157093693
I never went out of my way to add them up no, but a few thousand in slayer and BTB each combined with sparse pockets of 300 ish in the other modes would've seemed to add up

I don't know where you're pulling this "reach population counter bug" thing from, but I've never heard of a bug that somehow has the wrong amount of players yet still fluctuates on it's own

if you ever had, you would come up with a total less than half of whatever the overall is, because the overall accounts for people playing campaign, firefight, idling in menus, and not actually existing

You ever gonna provide proof of this major claim:
>>
>>157093939

https://majornelson.com/2013/11/07/live-activity-for-week-of-oct-28/

Now interestingly, HALO 3 overtook Halo 4 in October 2013. I'm wondering how this happened, since it had fallen below the Top 20 Most Played before the previous check in July. Was there an event? I forget when Games With Gold started, but I think this might be a bit early...

Though more to the point, by this time, a year after Halo 4's release, Halo Reach had dropped completely off the activity list. It had never overtaken Halo 4 at any point.
>>
>>157094356
>playing campaign, firefight and idling in menus

Yes, how do those not count as population? They're in the game. FF and campaign also had matchmaking.
>>
>>157094589
It's not really a major claim, of course older games won't have dick for population outside of mexican holdovers
>>
You faggots arent ignoring it
>>
>>157094040
No, I disagree.
No shit H5 has more people playing than reach and 4, but will we ever see the MASSIVE amounts of people playing Halo ever again?

Probably not. I think Halo is forever doomed to 35k and below numbers forever.

>>
>>157094614
>Now interestingly, HALO 3 overtook Halo 4 in October 2013.

This was the exact month it became free and it dropped off below Halo 4 the month after. This number only accounts for unique users who downloaded the game (because it was made FUCKING FREE) and ran it once during that month. It has no correlation whatsoever to actual matchmaking population or anything we care about, and they could not have even played multiplayer because most of the playlists require all DLC.

Also worth noting that for the entire first year of Halo 4's life, it was the top FPS on the console outside of CoD.

We can extend this to say it was the top FPS in all of videogaming that year outside of CoD and Valve.

So it's been about 3 days since I bought a bone and halo 5, I guess it's fine I was expecting much worse.

You know all the old guard employees left, right? Destiny costs around 180$ for all the content cut at launch, and you're going to sit there and say they care? At least 343 has the Forge Team that actually cares enough to take feedback and give us some decent stuff.

(Not counting any sales because i dont know the pricing of those) People who bought it AT LAUNCH would have had to pay 120$ at the very least for all of it's content.

That's 60$ for the base game, and then 60$ more for the collection which includes all the DLC and the base game again.


If they didn't wait two years to do that, it wouldve costed them 60$ for the base game, then 105$ of DLC. For a grand total of 165$.

I bought Destiny, that's 60, then I bought the first expansion for 20, then the second for 20, 40 (technically 60, I bought the Xbone version with Taken king to get off 360), and now Rise of Iron for 30. That's 170 dollars. 170 fucking dollars for cut content.

Dude, I dislike Activision as much as the next guy, but Bungie negotiated it so that they had complete control of the design process.

The fuck-ups are their own.

Now, they've fucked up hard, and had to renegotiate their contract losing much of that control. Activision has mandated other studios to "help" with Destiny 2 as a result.

And first and foremost THEY chose Activision. Bungie fucked themselves.

Oh, I'm aware that the taken king area was supposed to be in at launch. So was some swampy and another snowy area on earth along with ancient ruins on mars.

Halo 5 feels like a game they put several years worth of legitimate work into before someone a couple months before launch said "Mediocre!" and scrapped half of it.

The trailers and promotion makes me think Brian Reed got some college intern or something to write the story while he was off doing blow out of Filipino boys' asses, only to show up right before launch, read the script, and decide it was far too original and scary for his coked-out mind to use.

This was a few years before launch, right before the game got fucked over for whatever reason and they cut a ton of shit. They're probably vex ships yeah, but it's just more evidence of what happened to the game, if any more was even needed.

Incorrect. They fired him because he had done most of the work he needed to do already, and they thought they could make money off him since they already had his scores.
He recognized this and made complaints to fellow management. The court literally gave him everything he asked for cause he was in the right. Dude is still on Bungie's board even.

>>157108064
>$60 for all the DLC? Will I be hopelessly behind?
No, there's barely any content ;^). The game as it is now, is probably worth 60, but if you can get it for 40, you'd be doing better.
>>
>>157107997
>but it's just more evidence of what happened to the game, if any more was even needed.
Oh, definitely. But I'm willing to bet that this particular case was probably just regular cut content, not maliciously held stuff.
The only place it could be would be at the top of the Vex tower on Venus, and it would have just been a few corridors leading to big rooms like the copypasted Ketch is.

i think 387 at the moment, It should be possible to get to 400, but it's kinda odd.
Packages don't drop above 385, but gunsmith rewards and postgame rewards get above that.
>>
>>157108064
>$60 for all the DLC? Will I be hopelessly behind?
No, you can quickly catch up, but if you do use the level booster, you'll probably never touch the earlier levels, get some unique gear, and won't unlock some achievements.
Play the main game once through with one character, then pass the excess gear to the other two to be fused.
>>
>>157108234
Oh, I definitely agree. Some of the original content was definitely cut to be used as DLC or recycled in smaller ways to be used in raids and MP maps, but a lot was probably just plain old dropped entirely or never made it too far past the concept stage to begin with.

Destiny isn't an outright terrible game, it's just very money-grubbing and repetitive. I can see why people would like it, but it's not for me. And I'll always be dissapointed about the potential it had and what happened to bungie.

It is hysterical how tenderly you cling to the Grimoire. In-game, there is all the relevant lore you need to know.

>>157108354
>you'll probably never touch the earlier levels,
This is absurd. >>157108064 The story missions still give the rewards. Use the booster and then level your subclass, you won't be able to get to a high enough light without doing the story missions anyways.

>>157108497
I think the state it's in now is solid enough for it to die on. If the base game launched with the two expansions and TTK, that would have been worth the $60, so anyone jumping in now would get a decent deal.
Just don't take PvP seriously.
>>
>>157106643
>those obvious bullshit Activision business choices

Shut the fuck up. You slap down $100 on Infinite Warfare and you get TWO complete CoD games OFF THE BAT, no bullshit, no surprise unplanned expansions that aren't covered by the season pass, no Complete edition a year later you could've saved a ton of money on.

Bungie's bullshit is unprecedented and incompetent and it's obvious even they weren't clear on how much DLC they planned to release and were just winging it, badly, and behind schedule.

I mean, a month from now I'm getting two campaigns and something like 30 multiplayer maps plus change. The value prospect ridiculous even if IW turns out mediocre; it'll still at least be less aggressively boring and abusive than Destiny ever was.

w-what happened to games costing $60?
>>
>>157109086

Games cost $100 now because games are big and expensive to make.
>>
>>157108584
There is no lore in the main game, thats why the grimoire exits. The grimoire is literally the butchered version of the original story.


>>157108906
You ever thought about that deal existing only because CoDs fanbase has been demanding a boots on the ground game for a while now and Activision decided to take the easiest route to please these demands?

Hell, IW isnt even developing the Remaster, they gave that job to another studio. And you still need to buy the 100 dollar edition to get the remaster

>>
>>157109176

They have no faith in Infinity Ward after Ghosts, because nobody understood how dank and limitless that game is. You could do anything in that game.

I'm getting the $100 on principle just like I got BO3, but I also am deeply unenthused by Infinite Warfare, but it's an undeniable value prospect since it's the same amount of content I got with BO3 but now with the whole of CoD4's campaign and all 16 maps remastered. Essentially free when compared to other $100 Digital Deluxe editions.

>Hell, IW isnt even developing the Remaster, they gave that job to another studio.

This is a very good thing and Raven actually did a fantastic and faithful job of it.
>>
Only thing I really liked about Destiny was the sweet aesthetics. Wish 343 Halo had those.
>>
>>157109464
Fuck off, Bungie made that shitstain of a game so it's relevant here.
>>
>>157109176
>There is no lore in the main game
Incorrect.
Eris talks about Toland and shit.
Saladman tells the abridged tale of the Iron Lords
Ghost tells you stuff about the Warmind Rasputin, there are audio logs hidden in his bunkers, etc.
Grimoire exists because Bungie needed to keep their entire writing staff from quitting and it is their Soma.
Ultimately, it will amount to nothing. I expect a great quantity of your tears when your favorite piece of lore gets retconned.

You probably still believe characters will carry over, don't you?

>>157109154
>Games cost $100 now because games are big

No they cost that much because idiots will subsidize it for people like me who wait and get the deluxe GOTY edition.

The original version of CoD4, on 360. Logic doesn't apply here.

Whether MWR gets released standalone depends on sales, I'd guess.

There have been at least 2 at various points.

But you said people who pay $100 are idiots? Anybody who likes games you don't is idiot?
>>
If you think of MWR as a $60 game, which is fair because it's an absolute masterpiece that still holds up, then that makes Infinite Warfare $40 complete, which is $60 cheaper than any other complete CoD since BO1.

IW seems totally fine as a budget FPS, lol.

>>
>>157111341
Nobody had good enough gear on launch day to even try and complete the raid so it made sense to release it later when people had good enough gear
>>
>>157111285
it doesn't matter you retard, the raid wasn't meant to be done day 1 allowing players to have a fair chance to level their characters
>>
>>157111503

It'll still be healthy because IW will have more dumb shit to grind for, and CoD's population on PS4 is the highest of any console game period, so.

They made 3 more types ya know.

>>157118467
I know but I just mean the standard variants. Gunfighter and Tacticle are both kind of special.
So using AR as basis you'd have the different scope magnums at req level 1, then silenced, extended mag, kinetic etc magnums at req level 2. So on and so forth.
Just surprised they weren't base variants along with the rest and weren't added in ever.

>LateNight Gaming
Acts way too entitled. His presentation is whiny and he jumps to conclusions on what other people besides himself are thinking. Nothing in his videos are at all enlightning, even his "leak", which has assuming it's real at all, is very broad and generalized and makes nothing clear.
>The Act Man
Probably tge biggest "Halo fan" of the bunch listed here, that being said his critiques are not evenly spread out. He cares way too much about narrative even though there's so much more wrong with the games than just the stories right now.
>Hidden Xperia
Boring, repetative, and forgetable. Sounds like he treats it more like a job than a hobby. His points are nit really off or anything, but he never brings them anywhere.
>Readyuplive
Greenskull needs to take some mess and Calm. The. Fuck. Down. This isn't 2007 anymore. You don't need to intro your videos with that boring overused charade of diologue and explanation why you die 10 times in the match you're playing while you talk. While he's not a shill in the direct sense, he will never go out of his way to criticize 343 because he lives early access and special treatment.
>Halofollower
Remember what I said about LateNight acting entitled? Well take that and crank it up to 99999 and you have HaloFollower. This person should not be on youtube. He can't present, he can't make produce arguments, and he needs to learn the meaning of the word "fact". Possibly the most cancerous here.

Well, let's be fair - if your formula is decent from the get-go there shouldn't be a need for such drastic changes as 'our flagship gametype needs to be re-designed from the ground up so that people will actually play it'. With that said, however, I do agree that keeping things fresh and new to try and keep interest in the title going, especially if the changes are welcome refreshes and not just blatant rehashing.
>>
>>157180073
I'm not surprised they re-tooled Breakout, considering it was made by "e-sport pros" who ended up hating their own creation.
>>
>>157180714
The re-tooling was retarded though.
I'm convinced they only playtested on lan because of how awful shotgun fights are if there's any latency at all.
>>
>>157179020
I am assuming there is a certain degree of non-random in req packs, since my very last gold pack contained the Hunter armor and helmet, shoulda preordered from gamestop huh goyim?
>>
>>157178532
I can see the point he seems to be making
>bring back Breakout as ranked

>no place to play the old one
>>
>>157180714
The 'pro team' is arguably the main source of issues for Halo 5. Pulling from such a narrow pool of playtesters whose main investment in Halo is to earn money from it was bound to cause issues down the line, especially when the 'pro vision' for Halo differs so massively from what the general population wants.
>>
>>157181789
I can agree with this.
999/1000 halo players are not "pros"

I'm not saying they should cater to the demands of casuals either.
>>
>>157181789
>especially when the 'pro vision' for Halo differs so massively from what the general population wants.
There's probably a good video in that somewhere. Draw up a plan of the standard idea of Halo gameplay vs what Breakout is and how it's pretty much a different game.
I think everyone would have been fine with Breakout had it the development of 5 been delayed a year, and Halo: Breakout was sold as a $10 XBLA game to tide everyone over.

I don't like the 'pro' scene of Halo too much, but I can understand what drives some people to want to compete at a high level. There's space for both camps, but when you try to build the entire game around one (casuals for Halo Reach) or the other ('pro' for Halo 5), you end up alienating a good portion of your population.

>>157182185
>Standard Halo gameplay
And there's the big problem. I'm no dyed-in-the-wool Bungiefag, but I do think that Bungie's efforts in Halo were much better due mainly to the fact that everyone in the office was working towards the same vision of what Halo should be. 343i's big problem is that there are too many people trying to bring in so many other elements from different games, and it doesn't work out so well since a lot of the ideas aren't really fully-fleshed out or don't work well with other concepts.

I wound up uninstalling the ds3 wrapper because it would, for some reason, use up 20% of my CPU at any given time and for no particular reason.

>>157194652
Spent some time thinking about that last night, particularly with regards to their take on Forerunner architecture. The 343i designs do keep the idea of things being angular, but there's far too much emphasis on pieces of their architecture just randomly floating about, or on hard-light stuff.

Bungie's stuff really did look a lot better. They had the whole 'alien cathedral' thing going on, with flying buttresses and structures that looked strong and imposing and ancient rather than 'futuristic alien cyberpunk'. Stuff like the ziggurat in Assault on the Control Room, the Library, the dark corridors of the Silent Cartographer... we don't see any of that nowadays.

Words cannot express how much I hate the little floating pieces spammed everywhere

I don't mind magical mysterious floating pieces every once in a while, but when they're fucking everywhere they just become annoying and stupid

The worst part is how good the concepts looked and how shit forerunner architecture turned out ingame

Funnily enough, a few of the non-343 developed maps for halo 4 actually felt more like the original trilogy style, solace would be a good example. With how it's all overgrown and has the inlaid patterns and symbols and runes on the shiny metal surfaces rather than the boring grey 343 stuff
>>
>>157196954
Well the maps that weren't made by 343 were made by ex-Bungie guys at Certain Affinity.
>>
>>157196954
>floating pieces
That's my point though. I spent a lot of time thinking last night and trying to remember if any Bungie-era Forerunner architecture featured any of it. I think the Control Room in Halo 2 may have, but otherwise their take on Forerunner buildings was always 'make the structures look blocky and robust, and support them with delicate buttresses'. Bungie's style made it seem as though the structures really had been there for millennia, but 343i's stuff... seems as though it could've been built yesterday.

I'd really like to spend some time with a ripped sample of 343i's campaign geometry from Halo 4, and replace the Forerunner textures with stuff from Halo 3. Half of my issue is how un-tarnished the structures actually look.
>>
>>157197860
One of the halo 3 maps also had a small floating platform


The big long one with the outside walkways and the rockets and brute shot

That's about it though, I hate that floating shit. Especially that scene at the end of halo 5 where exuberant witness builds a bridge for you with flying pieces like it's fucking minecraft or legos
>>
>>157198267
epitaph
>>
>>157198267
You're thinking of Epitaph, but that was one tiny platform. The rest of the level adhered to the cathedral type thing the other anon was saying.
Also, the Index floats in the middle of a giant pit, but that's so that nobody else can get it. The entire purpose is that it's floating and away from everything else.
>>
>>157198495
Yeah, that's sort of what I was getting at. Small things like a floating platform here and there are believable and they fit with the general style of the Forerunners, but to simply have massive chunks of your buildings floating isn't that good-looking.

It's like they took the basic principle of 343 Guilty Spark having a floating inner core suspended inside an outer shell and said 'let's apply this to everything moving forward'. It doesn't convey any sense of ancient but advanced construction techniques.
>>
>>157198495
Well in Bungie's Halo CE commentary they did call the Index Forerunner magic literally since even they didn't know how the Index worked and they were the creators of the series, so Forerunners coming up with floating objects and geometry does make some since.
>>
>>157198754
>forerunners have solid light
>floating shit is somehow odd
I don't get people sometimes.
>>
>>157200087
The solid light always connects to something and projects from it. Floating shit just floats. Tiny stuff could be explained with magnetic fields, but not all that architecture in 4 that apparently no other Forerunner place used. At least until just after 4, where everyone starts running into places that suddenly do use floaty-tech.
>>
>>157200204
"Space Magic" whoosh
>>
>>157200087
>Hard light has been used since Halo CE and is an acceptable staple of Furerunner technology
>Floating structures aren't seen until Halo 4, where they're used to the exclusion of almost everything else
I'd give it a free pass if we'd seen floating architecture in greater variety in the Bungie-era games. As it stands, it's part of 343i's greater crime of shitting all over the style and aesthetic of what came before in the interests of making the series conform to their 'vision'.

I think it was honestly just the fact that they didnt expect to be attacked by beings THEY made, which ultimately gave the forerunners the advantage. Probably need to read more into it though.

Primordial, precursor, forerunner, it all basically means the same thing. Bad naming. (Especially how the forerunners actually referred to THEMSELVES as forerunners, and it wasn't just a name that humanity ascribed to them)

And I just find it silly how the ancient godlike galactic species (forerunner) needed an ancient godlike galactic species (precursor) to explain their origin...

It was fun when it was new and it's competitors were few.

Now Halo3 would have dozens of good if not better PC fps to fight with. On steam it would be buried in a few weeks. Off steam itll die faster

Customs will be played barely. MM will die because halo3 MM is nothing special. All it has (had) was the community and customs but both are gone

Halo Online failed mainly because of the publishing and marketing. Russia isn't the greatest market for Halo games as it is, and the fact that the game needed extensive modding to get it into a playable state outside of Russia was a pretty big turn-off even for the more dedicated Halo fans.

If it gets a proper, official, *global* release for all languages, and it were properly advertised, it'd do a lot better.

Yeah, but you also got to keep in mind that Halo Online was never meant for consumption outside of Russia.

I think the more likely answer is that Microsoft is shifting to their play anywhere plan (to make UWP somewhat more appealing to a public which is understandably weary), and it seems like a waste of time and money to get Halo Online to an optimal state when Halo 6 is due out in two years.

And anyone who has played Firefight knows it drops. I didn't make that list, but you're deluding yourself.
Also, just because the game runs at 60fps doesn't mean that animations, such as ones in the far distance, HAVE sixty frames to them.

Look at that clamber animation. That is not even 30 frames. One of the ways they cut down on stress to the engine to maintain 60 was by removing load on stuff in the distance. Go play warzone, look across the map at a guy without zooming, and you'll see shit like the "minimalist" animations in that webm.

Go test in upload studio, it cuts out every other frame. And then you still have to explain how the red team in the foreground is perfectly 30.

There's nothing to debate here, players and enemies at long distances animate at 30fps and lower to save on performance

And yet a webm was posted of it going below that. Prove it wrong if you're that confident.

>>157264971
>Only if the animation has two possible frames and they perfectly alternate.
it applies to any periodic animation like walk/run cycles.
>>
>>157265051
Fair enough.

>>157265136
And yet the clamber was what was mentioned, and goes well below 30. Funny, right? It's not periodic.
>>
>>157265079
I looked at every frame they change.
>>
>>157265243
>webm clearly shows missing frames, even for 30fps
>lol i looked
Anon, it's not up for debate. It goes below 30. It has for a year now.
>>
>>157265387
Did you look at frames?
>>
>>157265243
The human eye cannot see more then 5 frames per second.
>>
Spartans pose changes every frame -> not below 30 fps.
>>
/gowg/ on last legs boys, game was just released and they are already struggling to maintain posts. i knew you faggots who left would come back

Everyone has. It's just one guy being delusional, thinking that below thirty is somehow equal to or above thirty.
>>
>>157266332
Show me the frames of it going below 30.
Every frame spartan's pose changes.
>>
>>157266452
Not on the blue ones in the distance. The frames on the reds and the blues don't match. Especially on the climbing animation.

so which style of architecture is the best, halo 2 or halo 1?
halo 1 has its stark grey lines, its bold geometry
but halo 2 has its myterious ruins, its jungle-infested beams and its weird 'museum' of old-style architecture incased within a structure in the halo 1 style
so which is better?
>>
>>157266679
Output the frames and look my friend.

>>157266918
Halo 1, what is this tomb raider?

>that entire middle section where the blues keep teleporting at the wall
Yeah, that sure is 30.
>>
>>157267951
Which ones? Imgur fucked up the order on some of the frames (most obvious at beginning), they also lossy compress large images so the details of the tiny poses may be lost.
>>
>>157268047
>upload them out of order with literally random names
Just say you're wrong, already. You're the only one here insisting it's 30.
>>
>>157268319
I didn't do that, I dragged and dropped the directory into imgur and they fucked it up.
You literally only have to post two frames, just two.
>>
>>157268419
And if I pull from your own pictures, you'll just keep moving goalposts and saying "w-wait, I change my mind, those are THREE frames apart" or some shit.
The game drops below 30 all the time. Distance drawing, end of Firefight rounds when everything dies at once, when you're standing inside of an explosion. Get over it.
>>
>>157268594
No I won't, just pick them and I'll post the pngs in my directory.
>>
>>157268630
I already did and your first response was "w-wait they're out of order."
Just stop posting.
>>
>>157268716
You never specifcally said any images or posted any, you just said "middle section". too vague m8.
>>
>>157268778
He's one of those faggots that want you to find proof for him, because he's definitely correct and doesn't need to make any effort to prove his delusions for fear he may be wrong.
>>
>>157268778
It's only 6 seconds. If you can't see the sudden jumps around the 2-4 second mark, then you never have to worry about playing a game at 60 because you're the personification of that /v/ meme where your eyes can't see above 24 fps.
>>
>>157269012
What's only six seconds? The webm? I'm saying pick the couple frames out of the frames I extracted and post or link them in the album.
"middle section" is like 40+ frames to look at.
>>
>>157269234
And when I pointed it out, you whined that it's out of order. Your entire argument relies on that being in-order.
For everyone else, a simple look at the webm shows the difference between the foreground and the background, and only you have disputed it.
>>
>>157269309
I wasn't whining I was clarifying in case you had noticed, I only noticed after I posted the link.
>>
>>157269493
And my point is that you'll just keep "clarifying" forever because you can't accept something that has been in the game since launch.
>>

Feels good man

U will die because you are degenerate wino.

>>157270747
I take good care of my body, but I can't imagine my life beyond the age of like 25.
>>
>>157269925
If there's really proof, you can supply it. You claimed it less than 30, so show us YOUR proofs, since you made the claim.
>>
>>157271430
>webm already posted
>counterclaim "accidentally" messed up and refuses to fix it
>says it's therefore refuted
>>
>>157271571
That's not me anon. I'm uploading frames but it's going slow.
I think if you look at jumping spartan is can be misleading because the jump animation is very static, the running spartans at same distance seem to change positions every frame.
>>
>>157271784
>>157271784
New Tread.
Outfit your tank today!
>>
>>157271803
And the only argument made was that the clambering spartan is missing frames, which he is.
There are way more examples than that, but this one has yet to be proven wrong.
>>
>>157271978
If he's missing frames post the missing frames.
>>
>>157272053
He won't accept them from me. He'll claim I shopped it, edited the splicing, etc.

I'm aware that Imgur.com will stop allowing adult images since 15th of May. I'm taking actions to backup as much data as possible.
