THE /HG/TAGE IV: BUNGIE EDITION is currently accepting clips from these games.

>Halo 2/Anniversary/Vista/Project Cartographer
>Halo 3/ODST/Firefight
>Halo Wars
>Halo: Reach
>Halo: The Master Chief Collection (excluding Halo 4/Spartan Ops)

If you'd like to submit a clip, either reply to this post with the xboxdvr/thehostyouuse link or message that link to "Sweaty Towels" on waypoint. Use the past community’tages as a reference on what to submit. I’ll be looking for casual and competitive clips from the multiplayer and the campaign.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fofX-OITWMw
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bj0swJRlm5g

If anyone needs me to record their clips from Halo 3 on the 360 then let me know. I'll be keeping my 360 with me for the next few weeks. if anyone wants to get achievements together on any 360era Halo then let me know, I have them all.

The first community'tage for /hg/ was done for the Halo 5 beta. There hasn't been a collaboration for clips from Halo 3 or Reach as far as I know so the easy way to group them all together was under the flag of bungie.

I might do a minitage for Halo 4 if enough people are interested and I'd have 2-3 of my own clips to contribute.

Have no idea why 343 doesn't return to the human-covenant war and make games set throughout it.

It's been fluctuating between being in front of and behind Battlefront, which has about 10,000 people on at any given time.
Those are embarrassing numbers for a franchise like Halo, and only a year after launch.

Halo hasn't been popular since 3, anon
>>
>>163171170
You mean it wasn't on top of the world since Halo 3.
Halo Reach was still plenty popular a year after launch.
>>
>>163171170
>Halo hasn't been popular since Reach ftfy
>>
>>163171170
Halo lost the top spot on XBL to COD 4 back in 2008.
It didn't regain the top spot again until Reach launched in 2010, which held on to the spot until Black Ops was launched a month later.
Reach stayed competitive in the top games until Halo 4 launched, but after a few months, Reach returned to being more popular than 4 on the charts, but by 2014, even it started to wane in popularity and to date no Halo has been enormously popular.
Halo 5 by comparison has been extremely unpopular from beginning to end, though a lot of that can be contributed to Microsoft's fumbling of the Xbox One and Sony regaining it's position as the normie platform from the PS2 days.
>>
>>163171546
TL;DR 343 is certainly partly to blame but in the end it's mostly Cod's rise to popularity and Halo 4 being a better game wouldn't have alleviated the drop off that much
>>
>>163171546
I remember a period of time where MW2 had been on top for so fucking long and people were hoping that ODST would just for a day take the top spot because to access the Reach Beta you needed to log into ODST and when the day came ODST git up to second bytes still couldn't dethrone MW2 and people were depressed.

I should have known then the honeymoon was over.

If you have ANY suggestions as to changes to be made, reply with reasonable suggestions. No, Patrick, Spartan Assault is *not* a game for these polls.

>>163179832
Why didn't you group the anniversary editions together with the original for the campaign?
>>
>>163180403
Graphical differences. Some find it to be enough to want them to be seperate, where some prefer the original CE's atmosphere and music to the updated version, because they say it fits the tone of the setting better, or what have you.

>>163163257
One campaign was borderline garbage filled with unnecessary retcons and is ignored even by 343, the has a campaign that is terrible but at least has good on-foot level design. One is important, the other plays no part in future event. Reach is Other M for all I care, shitty and unimportant.

It's actually the plasma pistol's texture.

There's this person who's forge game I joined called "HOOLIG4N 2" with the service tag "GIRL" who messaged and proclaimed that they were indeed a 16 year old girl, so I kept the conversation going for a while and they invited me to an Xbox live party, they didn't use a mic but wanted me to talk. And then the started calling me babe and saying I love you and we have a connection; I played along for about an hour up until the point where "she" told me about how her dad died in a helicopter crash saving another soldier in the military. After that I said I didn't believe a single word they told me the whole time we were talking, and there response was to kick me from the party, and block me.
Somebody add this weirdo amd try to find out what they're up to, probably some gay faggot.

I mean come on. People have forged maps better than bungie/343. People have made games up in Halo5 we wouldn't have dreamed of during Halo3. Fuck forged maps have better lighting than half of halos past levels.

Arena and Warzone is what people are referring to when they say multiplayer is shit. Arena tries to pander to the competitive community way too much, the multi was even designed with fucking mlg players. Lacks a variety of staple gametypes. Warzone should be what Invasion was to Reach, a big and fun alternative to big team but they completely fucking ruined big team to push their reqzone.

The arena maps are the worst in the series.
I suppose one could argue they personally think they're better than Reach's, but even if we accepted that, that would be an abysmal metric to have to beat

Just realized rail gun is req level 4 while wasp is 3.
They should increase wasp or lower rail gun or both.
>>
>>163334428
Base wasp should be 4 and not have shields, too easy to duck behind an obstruction and regen even with a close to death wasp.
>>
>>163334792
She still needs H2A's face.
>>
>>163335220
But its already only held together by sticks and strings why does it need to be weaker.
>>
>>163335281
Because it's cheap and strong. The shield makes it too survivable since potshots don't do anything, if it's too weak give it more hp.
>>
What if base wasp only has machine gun.
>>
>>163335227
That's a lot harder to do, but someone else is welcome to try
>>

I agree. It takes about a full br clip just to break the shield, by the time your shots are actually doing damage it's behind cover already. And of course if you're playing alone you can count on the fact that you'll be the only person on your team trying to shoot it. Always. Not to mention there's usually at least 2 or 3 of them in the air since it's only level 3 so you can just spawn a new one everytime you die.

H2A Cortana has a nice booty

Unfortunately blur/343 will never release any of those god-tier models

H2A cutscene chief, Tartarus, Johnson, truth, half-jaw, and arby never ever
>>
>>163335760
They'd probably be huge right?
Would the models even be the same since it wasn't in-engine cutscenes?
>>
>>163335652
Yeah, it wasn't too hard. I just erased h4 cortana's head and shoulders, then put a transparent overlay of H3 cortana on top. Then I smoothed out the edges and messed with the color balances and contrast.
>>
>>163335813
The cutscenes weren't in-engine but they were still made with 3D models, so blur or 343 has them stored away somewhere, never to be used again.

Pic related would be another cool one, 343 fucked up hard when they didn't use this version of him for Halo 5.

How the fuck do people get so retarded

Do they only play halo to be the big armor man who blasts aliens? Seriously what the fuck.

The story is shit nowadays specifically because they brought the focus back to master chief. he only had 3 missions in H5, but the story was still generally about him and still fucking garbage.

We are doomed to have nothing but master chief until they start hemmoraging money because nobody will buy these shitty games, yet if they try and switch things up, they'll get screeched at by autists demanding chief only.

5 doesn't have an absolutely disgusting amount of motion blur, five second time-out buttons, crippled movement speed/jump height, a sandbox almost entirely worthless outside of power weapons and the dmr, fall damage on maps specifically designed to be more vertical to accommodate the jetpack (a la sword base), and other shit that I can't remember because I haven't played that compound fracture of a game in six years.

I was qualifying my statement by making it clear that it wasn't one or the other. Just because you dislike reach doesn't mean you have to dislike Halo 5 and vice versa.

No matter how many updates 343 releases, they're not going to address the key issues and complaints fans have.

>>163362185
The maps have a lot to do with it.

There's tons of great community maps, but like they say, the first impression is the strongest, and at launch all we had were the in house 343 maps... and they're terrible.
Honestly they should just let Certain Affinity make the maps.

Reach killed Halo, bungie should never have gone out with an experimental change in the formula of everything.

Reach only did well because it came off of 3 and lorefags who loved Fall of Reach. If 343 released it as their first game it would be despised.

Health pickups are a staple of arena, just like powerups and power weapons.
The BR was easier to use than CE magnum due to high aim assist, hitscan, and burst letting you track over unshielded head.

Reach was a contract game, plus it didn't say Halo on the title screen, since Bungie wasn't working on a Chief Halo they felt it was okay to experiment.

I was always against calling Halo arena multiplayer, it isn't a quick clone the pacing is completely different, Health pick ups are in objective in combat evolved, in quake likes they are just a byproduct of moving around the map.

Halo CE has SOME great maps. Halo 2 is much more consistent in quality though.

Halo 3 is my favorite but i'd take a series of CE clones for decades over the CoDxHalo frankenstein we have today

No, it completely changes focuses of gameplay and how people will move around maps. Unless you have a study to show it improves consistency through space magic or some shit, I think you're about done here.

Except no. The plentifulness of medpacks around a map and how "weak" the are in comparison to overshield and camo is very different. It's like saying an AR pickup is the same as a rocket launcher.
>Do you really think combat situations with variable health are more consistant than combat situations with fixed health?
Considering how you're completely obscuring what "consistent" means, I'll say yes anyways. Medpacks are part of the map design. It'll be as "consistent" as other things that are firmly planted on the map and have a timed respawn.
It sounds like your definition of "consistent" is "removing all possible variables" which is just simpler, weaker gameplay for the sake of "but management is too haaaaaard."
>>
>>163399008
The trilogy is iterative in the same design philosophy, the three have made an upward trend in reaching the goals of that design philosophy.

Every game introduces problems but each installment fixed more than it broke.

That is until Reach. Reach was an experiment to grab the call of duty audience that went horribly wrong. Every 343 game has reach's shitty DNA in it and Halo will never be back to its former glory culturally until it sheds the gameplay baggage it's picked up for the past decade.

And no, 3 is certainly not perfect, there are places to take the series in a positive direction, if I thought 3 was perfect I would play it and shut up.

>>163399106
You arn't understanding me. AR pickups and Rocket pickups ARE functionally the same in terms of tracking, placing it as a to do list in your head, walking up and grabbing it. Semantics semantics, and the end of the day, healthpacks are a commitment in Halo that takes time, in Quake it may modify your bunny hop arc and the flow but to compare the function at all is asinine. It has it's place in fast pace twitch shooters, in a slow game like halo it slows the game down EVEN MORE.


Consistency means every combat situation, you can expect a certain amount of damage to out your opponent. This knowlege is cruicial for on the fly decision making during your ballet with your opponent. It's also frustrating to be punished by an interloper moments after you finish your duel with your opponent, with minimal health. This is fine in quake because you're gonna be speeding to the next pack anyway and after some movement you'll be ok again, but Halo is a different beast, you're much more likely to not see that healthpack for longer, and it creates a disincentive for "fair" combat engagement.
>>
>>163399451
Literally no, Halo CE's multiplayer was an afterthought, a happy accident that turned out spectacular.

2 was the first time they actually tried to make Halo competitive, especially to sell Live.

>>163400191
Reach changed the visual design to be more gritty amd "realistic", added bloom, grenade indicators, a points system, perks, hitmarkers, sprint

>>163399952
>healthpacks are a commitment in Halo that takes time, in Quake it may modify your bunny hop arc and the flow but to compare the function at all is asinine.
Then maybe you shouldn't have compared it. That was you, remember.

And the better player would make it out of that, keeping in mind health spawns and whatnot. It sounds like you're just bad at management. Play better consistently rather than demanding the game be dumbed down because you suck.

>>163400095
>4 was the second attempt, built off the financial success of Reach.
Reach wasn't CoD.
>>
>>163400351
So you are denying the established fact that CE was an afterthought at the end of production?

Obviously someone had to balance the weapons, it's a game.

But they still understood that casual and competitive players want a smooth, balanced, yet familiar experience. I think the iterations did a great (but not perfect) job.

>>163400402
>CoD invented all of these

Friendly reminder that Halo 2 considered sprint. Fucking copying CoD.
And Halo always tried to be gritty. Just because the enemy shot blue bullets doesn't mean everything wasn't always designed to "work" functionally, be practical, etc.
Compare this to 4, which added weapon loadouts, permanent sprint, killcams, press x to respawns, etc.

No, I contrasted them, big difference

>just git gud lol

No, the mechanic unfairly punishes an aggressive playstyle (and promotes hiding until OHK weapons, because duels arn't worth it) and gives a present to another player who doesn't deserve it. In a game where the movement speed and TTK is what it is, healthpacks are a nuisance at best and it's great that Bungie nixed them. Power weapon placement and map structure work well enough in generating map flow in this sandbox.

See

Too bad Bungie threw this all out the window when they changed the weapon spawn mechanics.

Contrasting is a comparison, you moron.
>No, the mechanic unfairly punishes an aggressive playstyle (and promotes hiding until OHK weapons, because duels arn't worth it
That's how Halo always is, with or without medpacks. Not dying until you can grab a power weapon is how every fucking game ever made works.
>In a game where the movement speed and TTK is what it is, healthpacks are a nuisance at best
No, they're fine. Just because someone beats you to them because they played better doesn't mean it's poor design. It means you got outplayed.
>>
>>163400591
Armor abilities are fuctionally the same as perks in the sandbox. Random super powers you have over your opponent, like a slot machine that you throw out in every combat situation. A coin flip if you will.

>>163400615
Didn't say anywhere they invented it, doesn't matter what the invented, what matters is it was the top selling game at the time, and reach became more like it.

Hardly at all. You're reaching like crazy for comparisons. You just said that armor abilities are the equivalent of perks, when 4 went on to ACTUALLY have perks to show you what it's really like when Halo has perks.
>It looks like a cartoon, and it functioned better that way, the colorful and uncluttered nature of CE and 3 was much better for combat.
They look like cartoons because they tried to be realistic but did graphics bad. The only thing "cartoony" about them was the color palette using some bright colors. Everything was always meant to be realistic, and 2 went out of the way to be super brown and gritty, so you saying that the trilogy always tried to be unrealistic is bullshit.

Most of the recent top matches I've watched of 1v1s the player in stronger position will play defensively and there will be no frags for minutes.

So there wasn't any gritty looking games before Reach? Graphics wern't advanced enough yet?

Or you're just wrong.
>Provide me an opposite argument, why should healthpacks return to Halo (and lets say, actual Halo, IE the trilogy)
You made the claim they should be gone forever. You have yet to back that up. You compared them to powerups like overshield, so if things like that not being "consistent" is a problem, then you should verdantly stand by removing powerups from the sandbox. Hell, you should remove weapons on the map, too.
>>
>>163401837
And casual melee at your friends house looks nothing like Evo

Powerups provide a function that isn't necessary for combat, they are a bonus.

Full Health is absolutely necessary in a fair fight between two competent players.

>>
>>163401939
>So there wasn't any gritty looking games before Reach? Graphics wern't advanced enough yet?
The older Halo games were gritty. Just because Halo 1 had pretty shades of blue and orange doesn't mean it wasn't a game about humanity barely surviving while getting seared by plasma until they come across chest-devouring space parasites.
>Stop trying to make this a Reach vs 4 argument, both are absolute trash, and 4 is an iteration of Reach with a sprinkle of 3
No, 4 is an iteration of CoD using Reach's engine and assets. If you keep comparing Reach to CoD and how you think one is imitating the other, then I can bring in 4 to show you how Reach is so different from CoD and what Halo looks like when it tries to be CoD.
>>
>>163402236
>Full Health is absolutely necessary in a fair fight between two competent players.
Absolutely not. As other people have said, you brought up Quake and Quake isn't perfectly even all the time. If you aren't outgunning someone unless it's always a 1v1 with the exact same weapons, health, shields, map placement, etc. you're playing the wrong genre.
>I've provided arguments

>>
>>163402286
Gritty tone in the campaign and extended universe is not the same as gritty visual design.

Reach and 4 are similar in design philosophy, so you arn't convincing me of their great differences.

I do not dispute that 4 is more CoD like, if that is your point. Reach started the trend though, and its success made it OK in 343's eyes to iterate towards CoD.

The backlash from that choice is what created the Frankenstein known as Halo 5
>>
>>163402407
The point isn't complete fairness, but a semblance of it, you need to weigh the benefits and detriments when adding or removing features, I feel the increased consistency in damage needing to be dealt, as well as scratching off a purely defensive priority off of a players mind makes for a more balanced and fun experience for both players.

Second paragraph is a non-argument.
>>
>>163402551
>Gritty tone in the campaign and extended universe is not the same as gritty visual design.
Halo had that as well. Or are you forgetting that they made a unique Elite model and Marine model dedicated to having exposed ribs?
>Reach and 4 are similar in design philosophy, so you arn't convincing me of their great differences.
Except they're not. Reach had even starts except in Infection and Invasion, no perks, sprint was a tradeoff, no progression system outside of aesthetics, etc. 4 had uneven starts, instant respawn, sprint on every player, weapon progression, etc. They are VERY different in design.
>Reach started the trend though
Only if you reach like crazy to say stuff like getting armor through a system that isn't achievements is the same as CoD's prestige system.
>The backlash from that choice is what created the Frankenstein known as Halo 5
No, that was the backlash to 4. The backlash of Reach was ignored by 343 and that's how we got 4.
>>
>>163402812
>I feel the increased consistency in damage needing to be dealt, as well as scratching off a purely defensive priority off of a players mind makes for a more balanced and fun experience for both players.
Then I guess we have to remove all weapons that aren't the weapons you spawn with, remove walls to hide behind, take away boost, sprint, and walking in general because that can be defensive, and just make it a game about who pulled the trigger the fastest.

You want everything to be even as possible. Then I guess we have to saw down the maps so people can't be above one another.

Won't. And you ignored most of my post if you think that's my logic. Stop shitposting and be serious.
>>
>>163403373
>Target. Market.
Then you just lost this argument, because the Reach target market was Halo fans. The 4 target market was people who weren't Halo fans. As I said, the hiring practices reflect this.
>>
>>163403436
Where did I say that? Point to the line.

>>163403492
>Reach target market was Halo fans.

Oh you poor poor soul.

By that logic Halo 4 was for the fans because it was lore heavy.
>>

You refuse to explain your "logic" and how it differs. You just cry that someone used your logic.
>>
>>163403676
>By that logic Halo 4 was for the fans because it was lore heavy.
The existence of lore doesn't make Halo. The gameplay makes Halo. Halo 4 was designed to NOT be like previous games but to be more like CoD. Reach was designed to be like 3 but replacing the equipment button with armor abilities.
>>
>>163403492
No offense but neither was targeted towards Halo fans, Reach lost me with that shitty VGA 2009 trailer.

Did you play either game? How can you possibly be this dense? It's literally night and day between the games.

I'm sure you have or you wouldn't be here but wow some opinions make my head spin.

>>163403767
>Reach was designed to be like 3 but replacing the equipment button with armor abilities
Not him but no, Reach took more from Shadow Run then trying to be like any Halo game, getting rid of bleed through, adding bloom, fucking up the equipment system, breaking melee, and jacking up the health system along with running speed and jump height does not make for a game trying to be like a Halo game. If Reach wasn't a contract game I would hate Bungie forever.
>>

>Did you play either game? How can you possibly be this dense? It's literally night and day between the games.
To quote you, that's not an argument. Hell, one of the major criticisms of Reach was that it was like 3 instead of 2, but with bloom. That's all Reach is: 3 with bloom, armor abilities replacing equipment, and medpacks are back.

No, the major complaint that Reach had was that it didn't play like a Halo game.
>>
>>163404269
Except it did and nobody said that.
>>
>>163404269
This, at fucking all.

Halo CE -> 2 was a smaller jump than 3-> Reach

Ho lee fuck am I on waypoint forums right now?

Not an argument.

Wasn't meant to be sweetheart, you've made it clear you have no basis in reality so any discussion would be fruitless and unproductive in revising my own opinion :^)
>>
>>163404363
>>163404339
Halo 1, 2, and 3 all play alike, Halo Reach and beyond don't I think you two need to get your eyes checked or replay the games
>>
>>163404572
We already live in a world where you claim that medpacks are unfair but everything else is fine. We left reality long ago.
>>
>>163404616
I agree with you, use your context clues on my post

It's sad. I'm writing a script for a video on how to fix the current state of Halo now, and was hoping for something to be gained here. I guess not.
>>
>>163404873
Yes, they all have equal starts, power ups on map, and focus on the three triangles melee, shoot, grenade.
>>
>>163404992
Reach does that, but they all play different. CE had medpacks, 3 had a health system like 5. Physics also greatly differ in each game.
>>
>>163404873
The core design philosophy is the same, my dude.

It might be a generalization but you can feel they share the same blood.
>>
>>163404992
>>163405070
CE feels and plays quite different.
>>
>>163405070
Then you're arbitrarily cutting off your generalization.
>>
>>163405068
Reach gimped melee(bleedthru), shooting (bloom) and grenades (nerf and glowing frags) and had unequal starts (AA) what are you smoking

>>163405068
But Reach doesn't have the core design philosophy. As how different Halo 4 is from other Halo games, it surprising brought back bleed through, faster movement speed, and higher jump height.
>>
>>163404992
I suppose we can include H5 then?
>>
>>163405176
Pac man and ms pacman play different can't say the have the same design goals no sir

>>163405160
Only a tad more than 2 and 3, the biggest difference is the visual design.
>>
>>163405186
So all three parts of the triangle are nerfed, and everyone had access to these abilities that were only even in a few playlists. Got it.

>>163405239
>But Reach doesn't have the core design philosophy.
You keep saying this, but that's just you saying "Power of the Cellâ„¢."
>>
>>163405284
Halo 5 is the closest we've had to a good game since 3. But Halo 5 throws a monkey wrench into movement options which DESTROYS map design
>>
>>163405303
>the biggest difference is the visual design.
No way, that's their biggest similarity.
>>
>>163405303
>Only a tad more than 2 and 3, the biggest difference is the visual design.
And Reach is only a "tad" different from 2 and 3 in the same vein that CE is from 2 and 3. Hell, Reach is more like CE than 2 and 3. It had medpacks back, no dual wielding, etc.
>>
>>163405309
Yup you got it good job, it's completely different!
>>
>>163405309
This guy explains it well >>163405186

>>163405383
Actually Halo is the best Halo multiplayer since Halo 2.
>>
>>163405392
>reach is like ce
Fuck off you obviously have no idea what you are talking about.

>he fell for the back to our roots meme
>>
>>163405567
And I already covered how it's wrong. Three points of a triangle were filed down and everyone had the armor abilities from the very start of the match.
>>
>>163405568
Halo 3 improved on Halo 2 in many ways. It wasn't perfect but it did.
>>
>>163405568
>Halo
How long until the reboot? Not remake. Reboot.
>>
>>163405670
>everyone had random mystery boxes with no visual cues on their person to bust out every encounter so it's balanced

This is the target market folks...

>>163405823

>>
>>163405392
Not him but no it's not
>>
>>163405715
wrong
>>
>>163405670
But the armor abilities were a fourth layer that completely destroyed the three triangle that Bungie pushed hard in Halo 1-3.
