I have an issue with this one thing in both Halo and Metroid lol, in Halo why does every UNSC, Covenant, and Forerunner facility have terminals where you can insert AI Data Chips? in Metroid why do the GF, Space Pirates, and Chozo all have small tunnel like openings made specifically for a ball to go through. It's like these idiots are asking to be infiltrated by Samus Aran and the Master Chief, lol.

The Forerunners had their tampering with things. Even the ancient humans had technology based off the Forerunners though there were more Precursor influence. Covenant technology just happens to be their spin on Forerunners too. The Librarian liked the humans so she definitely helped them in her own ways such as letting some of the tech be human usable.

The Chozo could do shit like Morph ball & speedbooster without their suits. This ain't unique, some of Zebus' inhabitants can do the same or similar. They'd naturally have holes for themselves. The Feds would have things like ventilation ducts they'd expect no one to fit inside & navigate well. IRL ducts aren't as easy to navigate as movie & video game ones. The pirates? Some of their tech is stolen from Chozo shit & as Zero Mission shown, they themselves can crawl through those holes. Besides, they're crazy fuckers.

I don't know. They're Spartans, they can figure it out and make it work. Booty based assassinations. A run and slide past them, so when they turn to shoot it's booty. Booty based ground pounds. They have the technology to have and make great butts, used them!

Sorta-ish spoilers on Atriox's character (My interpretation from info learned):
Though later stuff really just makes him look like a massive hypocrite, considering he left because he didn't like being used by the Covenant.

I always thought if as Forerunner planning. The Librarian planned everything up to and including what would lead to the Spartan programme, smart AIs, etc. How Forerunner tech is usable by certain humans and so on.

The Covenant, having their tech largely based on Forerunner tech would just use the same things they would use out of habit.

So, by the Librarian's fuckery alone, people would eventually make tech that was Forerunner compatible and it just so happened that the covenant were lazy fucks and never tried to find their own form factor.

If they invented their own version of USB, the UNSC would have been fucked.

That story mode was fucking shit

Everyone suddenly knows everything there is to know about the ark and the Halo rings
everyone suddenly has the latest UNSC gear
Barely any mention of the war
no fucking mention whatsoever that HUMANITY WON, and no subsequent scene of the crews reaction to that, no scene of ANYBODY's reaction to that
that cringy canned speech cutter gives
And Isabel, while fine as a character, has a really fucking stupid scene. We didnt need 2 minutes of watching her hollywood hacking. It should have been instant, not some "struggle".

So I think everyone would know about the Ark but just avoid it except to pirate. No one wants to go someplace that had a bunch of flood.

Still, you wanna know something even more fucked up? Humanity almost lost the Ark like 3 other times since the end of Halo 3, which would have ended the galaxy as we know it. Read the wiki. These fuckers have nearly gotten us killed because they want to study a mass galaxy extinction apparatus.

Eh, I guess I'm more upset because I feel like they're taking in a lack of multiplayer too heavily.

It revolutionized Halo with Firefight (shoulda had a matchmaking mode though, otherwise you needed friends). And the soundtrack was probably my favorite of all the Halos. It nailed the tone it was trying to set while also remaining true to the series' themes.

The story was just a mechanism to learn about the characters as you went, yet integrate yourself as the Rookie. Regardless of them cocking it up with books, I think it was honestly one of the top Halos.

See, this doesn't bother me that much.

I'm of a different opinion than most it seems. I don't really care how great Halo Wars 2 is perceived to be, I'm just glad it exists.
It was a niche RTS game that really hit the Halo esthetic out of the park and I never really expected a sequel. After all, Ensemble closed down and years went by without word. It seemed like the legendary ending would never be investigated.

But then they actually released a sequel, and 8 years later at that!
I don't know, that just makes me happy. It's probably my favorite decision made in the post-bungie era.

Anyone else feel this way?

I'd call you a liar if you didn't think Firefight was an important development in Halo's multiplayers. I think they cocked it up more in 5, however it was an interesting take on the survival meme games started to have.

Rather than just monotone waves sent at you, they allowed you to pick a difficulty and then didn't let you pick the skulls. You had to change tactics on the fly, and were forced to experience skulls that you might never actually fight. If you want to you could go to certain rounds (with sets and bosses), or you can play infinitely. They were able to capitalize on a common idea without carbon copying what everyone else was doing with endless monotone waves.

>>168989814
The characters were fine and cliche like they needed to be. Dare and Buck had a romance, but this was a romantic story and if you couldn't tell you were stupid. Everyone survives at the end? Reconciled romance? Surviving impossible odds? The whole point of the story wasn't the engineer, it was a tale of camaraderie and brotherhood going the extra mile to bring everyone home.

Besides Dare and Buck broke up months later, as they probably would have in a real relationship. So many relationships strained after WWII because they were made in the heat of not knowing if you'd live to see another vagina. Hell, my grandpa is a Korean War vet and even I can see he just married the first white woman he saw when he came back from the war. At least tell me why you didn't like the characters, then we can have a point to discuss.

Well at least that's just how i feel because you're fighting Decimus for the most part of the game and Atriox only joins the scene in the last 2 missions, so it kinda makes sense that the missing Cutter vs Atriox stuff should be the focus of the DLC campaign.
I think you'll probably be right about the missing Blur cutscenes, they ain't cheap and i doubt 343 will drop the big bucks for just a short DLC, wouldn't mind in-game dialogue and cutscenes though.

what the fuck
>>
>>168991092
>>168991803

I know it doesn't have to be about them, but with Reach and ODST I don't see how they could do it.

Reach was about the impossible odds of saving Cortana using a squad that hates you because you replaced an essential family member.

ODST was a squad of humans overcoming impossible odds through wit, dedication, comradeship, and brotherhood.

So we have three problems. First, "Been there, done that". I don't honestly think they can make an effective squad when they have made all the caracters. Cocky sniper, quiet sniper, fearless leader, cocky leader, God fearing man, Spiritual Bear, cocky woman, cocky ONI woman, wise cracker, black wise cracker, and silent protagonist. It's all been done, it will just be a remix of whatever previous character archtypes they make. Unless they simply make some characters straight unlikable, which is a hard idea to work with.

Second problem? What are ODST's even like now? They can make Spartans cheaply and drop them much faster and safer than they can drop regular ODST's. The Spartans are also their own branch now, so why wouldn't they go in first? They're not a clandestine group only for stealth missions, they're like sending a literal battalion to help your troops with full shielding, superhuman strength, minus the indoctrination the Spartan II's had.

I honestly think the ODST's are obsolete. Which isn't a bad thin on it's face, but how do you emulate the human struggle it's predecessor had when now they can do backflips and punch Brutes in the fucking mouth? They were made because they were cheap and effective troops, but now they're not at war. They don't need to be cheap, they need to be efficient.

[Part 1 of 2]
>>
>>168991092
>>168991803

Finally, what story do you pair this with? The point of the ODST's in their story is that they weren't the center of the universe, however they were right on it's cusp. The Chief, Keyes, and the Covenant fucked off to another Halo ring, while these guys had to pick up the pieces. Hopefully they have something planet ending that you can work with to make a setting isolation, but they're setting up the Inifinity as the last bastion. Cortana is going to have a firm eye on them, so there will be no isolated squads because they can immediately alert all units where any fighting is. That's the point of the Guardian, to make insurrection, resistance, and fighting impossible. If they could do it from some cool underground resistance standpoint that'd be interesting, but with so many Guardians policing the galaxy I don't see how you make that work and still be lore friendly.

I still hope they make it, I would love it if they could do it. I just don't have hope that they will.

[Part 2 of 2]
>>
>>168992317
>>168992462
I think they could perfectly make a Marine/ODST game set during the Covenant war, a prequel like Reach but from a more human perspective. I always dreamed of a Band of Brothers-like Halo game, following the same squad throught the years of war, changing perspectives from time to time and then they all die at the end or something.

Based on where we are at, the next game would have to be much longer to close out this whole guardian thing.

Ideally in my mind we start off as the resistance and eventually make our way to the new halo ring and have a climactic battle with cortana there.
Maybe the flood gets released on the ring, maybe not, I don't know, but perhaps Anders finds a way to make it so that the halo array targets AI instead of organics.

>>168997463
Retcon 4 & 5 and the Forerunner saga. Chief instead meets up with the guys on Onyx and they fight factions of human separatists and covenant splinter groups. The shaky alliance of Covenant separatists and the UNSC continues on, albeit challenged by aforementioned groups.

Instead of focusing on impossible odds and galactic events, the infighting among the humans showcase the authoritarian aspects of the UNSC.
>>
>>168997463
It needs to come to a sort of closure where the covenant and the prometheans are finished off, probably on the halo ring.

The 7th game can see the return of the flood and the banished replacing the covenant.

It could happen. They've established that AI 'souls' can be permanently destroyed because the Didact ran out of prometheans and had to make new ones out of humans in the Halo 4 terminals.

Here I thought I was gonna get a story where Chief after the loss of Cortana was gonna go rogue and fucking ravage UNSC tanks, Spartans, Mechs, while taking down the ONI shadow government. The insurrection would be in full swing by 6 and he'd be their leader.

But no, 343 hates me.

The drastic change in plot, tone, and theme between season 1 and 2 of Hunt the Truth is just more evidence to suggest that there was a DRASTIC change in Halo 5 development and writing about a year before launch
>>
"THERE'S THAT GUARDIAN SONG AGAIN!"

Don't you hate it when games do this? When they handhold you even through the dialogue like you're some kind of mental retard?
Yeah, we all heard the buzz. Nobody would say that after hearing it.
And Halo 4 and 5 do this over and over and over again.

Yeah, I know, just let me have my dreams. I really wanted halo to become more gritty and real. ODST felt like a step in the right direction, but imagine having an M-rated game full of death and destruction. A marine-based game dealing with a flood infestation would make for a great horror game.
>>
>>168999878
Season 2 just went and undermined the whole point of Season 1. ONI became the serious good guy again with desperate measures.

Rather than making that cool as fuck Illuminati story where ONI was gonna false flag chief as a civilian murderer, changing public opinion to allow Locke to take him out, media blackouts and the like.

I mean come the fuck on, it woulda been great.

In this case: defining how good or bad everybody thinks Halo Wars 2 is, even though that's literally impossible because the game released hours ago for most people.

Definitely closer to 10 than 0 but you're missing the point, user score is not reliable or honest at all, period. 90% of those revies are either "I like it, i'll give it a 10" or "I don't like it, i'll give it a 0", shit's fucking retarded.

It's not completely devoid of strategy, no.

Warzone for instance has less cancerous pay2win, but the game mode is pretty random and devoid of real strategy.
Blitz has more strategy, but the possibility for pay2win is higher.

One of the best parts of Halo is only having two weapons at least multiplayer wise.

>why does the warthog control like shit? driving it felt like walking with trainers on an icy lake

It doesn't? Unless you are driving on ice, halo has some of the simplest and cleanest vehicles

>will all the games have forced diversity? mexican marine shouting in spanish, then the black guy at the beginning of 2

This is pretty bad bait right? The majority of the marines have Aussie accents and a few I think voiced by other bungie employees making accents and a Puerto Rican. Johnson is based off Apone from Aliens and is in the first game as well, halo is heavily inspired from Aliens just look at the Pelican. It's not forced diversity they just didn't have VAs, the elites going wort wort wort is johnsons VA saying go go go but reversed.

i mean are the levels generally open and are there no navigation markers. i was pretty disorientated at times.

the warthog controls like shit and i play a lot of racing games so i should know. if you drive at full speed and take a harsh turn the vehicle will tumble over. not fun. so that's why i'm asking if it improves.

yes that was bait, sorry.

do all of the games take around 7 hours? currently playing on normal.

The warthog shouldn't be flipping like that, it honestly controls really well for a game that old. All of CE is pretty floaty jumps included and that transfers to vehicles as well but they shouldn't be flipping that much. Halo 2 and 3 stuff starts getting wonkier with vehicles. Reach on they kinda get stuck to the floor which makes kinda weird flip situations I really don't like it after how much time I put into CE -3 . Also play on heroic its a much better experience and they give you nav markers occasionally they show up a bit more in the later games getting more and more annoying and showing up for everything in the newest ones. You are supposed to explore and find new routes and stuff, everything kinda moves you in the right direction and cortana gives you a nav marker for stuff thats hard to find. You are going to have fun with 3 lol lots of vehicle missions, you will get used to the physics eventually and then you won't think the warthog feels weird. You also could coop through the campaigns and fuck around since thats another large part of halo.

Level design was pretty cool although I have to say that the original version looks more grim than the remastered one, especially the snow and swamp levels. I didn't like that some levels were reused in the game and that there were no navigation markers which made it hard to orientate. I wish they put some background noise in the first part because at times theres no sound at all. What I really enjoyed was using the grenades.

Playing 2 right now, all the point and all the points I didn't like seem to be resolved, especially the warthog. Bretty good desu

You're both half right and half wrong.

You're correct that Breath of the Wild is pretty empty. There's trees, """mountains""", and Plains, but not much in the actual game. Most of the time it's just empty riding around. Think Windows Walker again except this time no boats. So anyone expecting the next evolution in sandbox gaming is going to be very disappointed.

However, you're wrong about the map size. It's very large for a Zelda game, and while it's nothing impressive (Skyrim wasn't that big when it released) it's still far bigger than "3x TP"

No problems at all in blitz beta, game runs at 100-120 fps with no lag

In release in half of games I get 15-30 fps with even worse drops down to 1-5 fps and massive lag with 2-4 seconds between input and execution

None of those are even the hardest in the game.
I have 2 of them.
>>
>>169108492
Not him but i unlocked them like this:
Icarus: there was a glitch around launch that let you start a level, quit immediatly and still would count.
Domination: boosting.
LASO Master: another glitch, if someone had a save on the last checkpoint for each game's last mission, they could share it with you, play that last segment and bam, achievement unlocked.
>>
>>169108782
I was able to glitch the spartan ops missions but could never get the glitch for LASO to work and I tried it SEVERAL times.
I finally dug down and tried to do it legit.
Was able to do both CE and Halo 3 with a friend. Currently going through Halo 4. Not sure if I want to attempt Halo 2 or ODST.

After beating 2 of them, I can say that LASO is VERY difficult, but still infinitely more possible than I had ever thought before attempting it.
>>
>>169109112
The scariest thing about LASO campaigns have always been the thought of them.
It's a very "only thing to fear is fear itself" thing.
The first mission of any LASO campaign is always the hardest because you're getting used to the new way to play.
After that it just sort of starts to come together.

Reach is the 3rd worst Halo game. It's better than 4 but that's not a compliment and it's only better than 5 because 5's campaign is so horrifically abysmal that it ends up averaging out slightly worse.

A more realistic scenario would be:

>Marine leader
>ODST leader
>Serina
>Brute Chieftain (HW1)
>Arbiter (HW1)
>Prophet (HW1)

All of them with 1 hero, 1 unique units, 2-3 unique leader powers and the rest of their units would be the same as current UNSC/Banished.
