I actually really like when the villain says they're invulnerable to something and just ends up being wrong/lying.

Yeah they probably forgot all about that quote most likely. Which then begs the question, what exactly did his transformation do? It didn't make him immune to flood infection, and it didn't make him immune to composition.

>So he's gone, right?
>Just so I'm clear.
He's gone.
I know Chief words it in a way that leaves him in a status where he theoretically could return if they wanted to use him again but for all intents and purposes he's probably not coming back.

It seems pretty clear to me based on the way they had him go down in Halo 4 as well as what the documentaries said about what was then known as "the ancient evil" that he was supposed to be somewhat of a reoccurring antagonist, but they scrapped that idea, likely due to negative feedback.

It's possible that he was supposed to be what Warden is but they instead decided to just ignore Didact and make a less pivotal character to do Cortana's bidding but still be leader of the prometheans.
>>
>>170260951
I'd say so, yeah.
Kind of a shame really. I mean yeah he was edgy/10 but at he was at least more interesting than Britbong Eternal.

The intent was to be immune to flood. He just fucked himself in reality.

He's in the Domain. He cant have a body AFAIK with CortAna and Warden running the show but his consciousness exists.

I'm torn because on one hand I like games that end throwing you against everything the game has taught you to fight like a final exam of sorts (CE, 5) but on the other hand I like the idea of the covies being the starter enemy and the main antagonists getting the final boss spot (3, 4).

The only one I don't like for final enemies is 2. Just having Brutes, Jackals, and Buggers feels a bit anticlimactic to me, especially compared to the previous level where the flood are taking over high charity.

You're going to have to replay the levels a few times over to get it. You can do it.

Take your time. Learn the levels and become proficient.
You don't have to be a speedrun expect, but every game has a few good skips you should know.
>>
>>170267198
I tried Nak3d Eli's methods for Halo 2 speedrun but i dunno, i feel like he tries the methods for the lowest time as possible instead of just good enough to get the achievement.
This guy seems alright, i'll check both guides, thanks.

Anyone else have problems with halo wars 2 freezing on the xbone?
>>
>>170272225
That's happened to me a few times, usually before a disconnect
>>
>>170268660
First off, pro speedrunners like naked Eli are not going to help you much. They're more likely to just get you frusterated. What you need is someone to slowly walk you through some of the essential skips. Everything else should be just trial and error. Practice makes perfect. Listening to Eli is like listening to a professional athletes trying to teach you how to play on the NFL. You need a personal tutor for just a few instances.

>>170268832
>Also i read something about a save&quit method everytime you die, does that actually work?
It works in CE on every checkpoint. If you save and quit you can go back into the checkpoint with the time where it was. The reason being that every time you die, the timer KEEPS GOING, so if you make it to a place you suspect you will have trouble with, save, quit, and go back in, then if you die for 10 minutes you can just reload the original save and get your 10 minutes back.
This method works also on Halo 2 HOWEVER if you try to do it on the final checkpoint, it will void the whole mission attempt, so if you're near the end of a level on H2, don't save and quit.

The nice thing about the 3 hour legendary runs are that they don't have to be all done in order. It just takes your lowest level times and adds them all up. However, you can't mic and match solo with Co op. One of the other for all levels.
>>
>>170271910
Holy fuck can't unsee
>>
>>170273198
Ok thanks, what about 3, 4 and ODST? Does save and quitting work on those games?
>>
>>170260007

“In Halo 4 we explicitly state the Composer has no effect on Didact or Chief for that matter - thanks Librarian. What we see here isn’t a standard Composer usage by any stretch of the imagination. This is six plus Composers detonating all at once, their energy expelled in an uncontrolled manner. He’s not "Composed” in the traditional sense because there is nothing there to process him. What he is, well, what he is is a surprise. But he’s out there. He’s alive. We’ll see him again.”

- Brian Reed
>>
>>170273542
I'm not sure. I went through those with 4 player co-op and didn't have much of a problem hitting par time.

I would honestly recommend getting those ones out of the way first. Get a group of 4 people and run through them.
>>
>>170273542
Those games require no speedrunning to complete. You can literally just get 3 other people to run with you on legendary in under 3 hours.
Not trying to be mean but if you are worried about speedrunning these games I cant imagine you being able to get goat roped or monopolized.
>>
>>170273802
>Well see him again

Yup. Halo 5 looked like it needed another 6 months in development when it launched. And what do you know, after over a year of updates, the game is actually a hell of a lot better IMO.

M$ needs to stop being a bunch of jews and just give them some breathing room. Making a Halo game is pressure enough.

Knights, crawlers, and watchers have such cool designs. The don't really look like forerunner machines and could do without the floaty bits, but they still look cool.

It's a shame that wardens and soldiers are so boring. Literally just bionicles, and the English-speaking is a bit more regarded than when the covenant do it. Because robots don't really need to vocalize to communicate

The main issue with Halo 5 wasn't that Cortana herself was back but that they pushed that to the side for Osiris shenanigans. If Halo 5 was just Chief and Blue Team, it would have made sense.

I guess we'll have to wait and see but I am not a fan of the Bionicles.

We can't just keep fighting the covenant and I do acknowledge how difficult it must be to try and come up with factions and enemies on par with the covenant but Prometheans are tedious to fight.

I feel like this arc has just gone off on a tangent, its a mess and we need to start anew in my opinion. New writers, new focus, new enemies, new allies. Salvage what we can, bring Lasky front and center since we've barely seen him, try and dial down the prometheans, focus on Chief and Blue Team. It might be cool if we actually got some of the taste of what 5 should have been, trying to track Cortana and visiting Human colonies throughout the Galaxy and seeing how the Guardians are effecting her only to eventually find your way back to a Halo ring and come full circle.

The forerunners used to have a sense of mysteriousness about them and how the games have explored them has been extremely lackluster. There has to be more the games can explore than a couple of rings, requiem, the didact and prometheans.

Maybe Halo would benefit from a refresh. Now I'm not saying the next Mass Effect is good or bad but what they have done, which is separate themselves from the timeline of the previous games, is allowing them to explore more of the universe. Obviously where would this leave Chief? It would be a problem.

It would be great if Halo could do this as we're going to be continuously retreading the same stuff unless 343 really want to dive in and reboot the forerunners. Actually rebooting the forerunners seems like the best option to me

Good analysis, definitely agree.

HOPEFULLY the arc gets finished off with 6, and we get some kind of resolution.From there we can find a new faction, redirect our focus to the stronger characters, and start a new plot that isn't a complete clusterfuck.

I read once that they were gonna scrap the idea of just a new trilogy and just keep making one, continuous story. If that implies that they're just gonna keep going off on this tangent without tying up loose ends and "starting over" per se, then 343 is gonna need to hire some damn good writers.

A real shame that they had to tarnish the franchise with such a shitty arc, though. Complete disappointment in the grand scheme of things. Hate to be the guy that said "Bungie should have died with Halo," but if the next couple campaigns are as bad as 4 and 5, then I really don't see a bright future for this franchise.

I feel that Halo 7 should get a DOOM refresh where Master Chief is thrown through time and space to an alternate universe where he has to fight Covenant and Flood again with the UNSC. Chief is seen as so ancient warrior god from some parallel dimension know as the "Legendary Soldier" by the UNSC, the "The Demon from the ancients" by the Covenant, "The one that walked between worlds by the Flood" and "the Quantum Reclaimer" by the Forerunners and most once again save the Galaxy from Halo rings.

>>170304601
This is some of the truest shit I've read in regard to 5's story.

I appreciate series' that acknowledge their failures but aren't ashamed by them. You don't get to keep retaking a test until you get A.

A good example is the tron movies.
The first one is bad. Really bad. Seriously go watch it.
The sequel came out decades later and had the chance to essentially just be entirely separated or even a reboot, but it didn't do that. It said "yeah, that movie happened, and this is a great sequel to that bad movie" and it made all the more worthwhile.
It's like real life. You'll have bad years. You can't do them over, but if you can accept them and move on, you'll appreciate the good ones more.
No franchise is perfect. The fact is we were spoiled for a long time with Halo. Now we have 2 campaigns that just look like those neighbors that moved into the neighborhood that you just don't like. Don't ignore them, build on them, learn from your mistakes, and Halo could be better than ever before.

So I can't say everything here is fact. Some is just concepts. Some is in "game". So things can change. Be removed. And I've only seen a little. And heard rumors from other employees. So don't take this as all fact. More like a little focus to what may come

>So far the pelican. Scorpion. SMG. Grunts and Elites have old designs (may have both for each)

>Looks like the forge team is working on both Halo5. But most of thier is on Halo 6 forge. It seems like anything in Halo5 forge will return .

>Looks like forerunner design is going more classic. Only things that seem to have "floaty" design are enemies and vehicles. Structures look more Halo 3...

>Lots of Halo Wars 2 looking things.

>Seems like they are looking at the best rated or liked multiplayers. From Halo 2-3 and Halo 5. They are ignoring halo 4. Halo Reach and Halo CE (not saying CE is bad. But it's different online)

>Two player split screen looks great. Best I've seen in halo in awhile. Not sure if 4 will come in We can only hope

>Most of Halo 5 things are in. But tweaked. And from what I've heard now everything EVERYTHING is a custom option. For example:. Removing smart scope OR having 10x zoom on every weapon

>Heard MP designers talk about having classic sized non sprint maps. As well as sprint type maps.

Here are some HUGE rumors. Hear says and I have no proof. Nor do the people who told me

>Campaign will let you pick between chief and Locke and your 3 team mates.

>Your team roster is a pretty big list. Includes Spartan ops characters. And others.

No it's not. Every enemy has clear weak points, including the knights and the wardens. In Halo 4, the knights were just bullet sponges and if that incineration cannon or fuel rod that you had left behind for an encounter had despawned, there were just some areas you were hopelessly fucked at on solo Legendary. This isn't the case in 5 both because power weapons are more plentiful, knights are weaker (if you know what you're doing), and each level has a secret high level REQ weapon (Nornfang, Pool of Radiance, etc.) hidden not far from where you'll need it most that you can retrieve.

I was super active in the thread and online in Halo 3, Reach, and 4's heydays. Between Halo 4 and 5 I graduated college, got married, and started a career. Between Halo 5 and Halo Wars 2, I became a father.

Now I play a few hours before I go to bed and that's about it during the week.

If you bought the most recent bundle, it came with everything. Likewise if you bought the bundle that came with the Taken King version of the game, you wouldn't be out too much for the final expansion. Really, you only got screwed if you bought the game at release (you know, like long time Bungie fans did).

I would say don't make the same mistake with Destiny 2, but I know I won't even be bothering with it anyways. Like >>170318839 , I no longer have time for grindfests at this point in my life even if it happens to surprise us and not be a shitfest (unlikely with zero involvement from Staten, Marty, or Lehto). I'll be sticking to traditional shooters/fighters/RTS games with rounds/matches that let me get my gaming fix in 15-30 minute increments for the foreseeable future.

>Fuck right off. Marty was a stuck-up old fuck who thought he could boss the big dogs around.
He did. He dragged Bungie through court. He was also 100% morally correct throughout the entire ordeal.
And Salvatori by himself is nothing compared to the duo, as evidenced by the majority of post-launch Destiny's pathetic soundtracks. So much of the audio direction flies directly in the face of what Marty states in his interviews.
>Well guess what Marty, it wasn't the good old days where Halo was the killer app needed to launch the Xbox, Activision isn't going to be like MS bending over to you anymore.

The leaked story, while predictable, is leaps and bounds above anything in vanilla Destiny or any of the expansions (barring the Grimoire, which really owes itself to Kirpatrick more than anyone). Rise of Iron is one of the most insufferably retarded pieces of writing I've ever experienced.
>Jason is the only one who actually stick around for us and is busting himself up trying to fix this whole mess.
Aw, I'm gonna cry :(

Destiny is garbage. Your precious studio and lead haven't been able to change that for the last three years. But hey, here's hoping you might for D2. At least know MoTS will guarantee that some of your music's good :^)

Just heard Brian Reed isn't the lead writer anymore and it got me thinking. How come they don't just hire one of the guys who write the Halo novels to be the lead writer? I've never got around to reading them but from the people who have, I only hear them say good things about the novels. Sorry if this sounds like a naive question to ask by the way.

The man delivered quality soundtracks. When you're the best around at what you do, you can be a bit of an asshole.

Marty just wanted to be paid the money he was still owed after they let him go and they refused, so he took them to court and won.

It was bad decision for Bungie to fire him and a worse decision for them to try and screw him out of what he was owed.

The masses still like him, it's just the people in charge don't because he does what he thinks is right, whether ONI agrees or not. Chief has an excellent personal moral compass that doesn't perfectly align with the UNSC's.
>>
>>170353591
Imagine if they injected any ounce of complexity into the Halo 5 story, and questioned the UNSC for its practices. Asked whether or not the Spartan Program was worth it, asked whether they had been doing a good job fighting wars or making decisions. Would have been a decent story route to take.

I think they explored this briefly in like one cutscene with Halsey in 5 (or 4? Can't remember) but they should've gone further done the rabbit hole

Right, I remember it now.

Remember when they started to humanize Cheif and were actually gonna explore on his personality? Then 5 happened?

That was one of the only things I liked about 4's story and they completely abandoned it in the next title, what a huge fucking failure

>>170354269
It led into spartan ops which I assume was supposed to lead into 5 but instead there were massive rewrites and spartan ops got finished up in the comics.

I agree that Chief's personality was handled well in 4. He never "broke", but you could tell he felt out of place in a new time. The scene with Lasky on Infinity has little diologue but it says so much.
>>
>>170354539
Yep, I wasn't crazy about 4's story, but at least it had its moments and things it did right, like that

Halo 5 had barely any good story moments whatsoever, complete step down for an already degrading storyline.
>>
Just so I understand

Mankind went to space, did horrible things, captured that Didact. Now Didact wants revenge

?
>>
>>170354539
>>170354770
The central unifying characteristic of the Halo games is the dynamic between Chief and Cortana. It's very tongue and Cheek yet also personal. I've enjoyed seeing it transform and become more serious across the franchise.
Despite my issues with 5's story, I don't mind Cortana being the big bad, it's just another degree to their relationship which has transformed across 16 years of Halo.
I just hope they handle it well in 6.
I liked the way Cortana kept her traditional cheeky demeanor when shit-talking Osiris in the last level of 5. I would like to see that only with Chief in 6. Something like "Oh John, glad you could make it. I have to get things done here though so I'm sending some prometheans your way. Please play nice".
>>
>>170355451
I agree with this analysis.
Thanks for giving me hope for 6.

What diologue exchange/line best represents the Chief/Cortana relationship?

>>170355615
>What diologue exchange/line best represents the Chief/Cortana relationship?

"Bet you can't stick it"

>>170355451
Yep, I also don't mind the idea of Cortana turning on Chief. Actually find it kind of interesting.

Would have been 100x better if her transformation happened without Osiris being involved, or whatever the Guardian bullshit was (completely forgot about how that worked, very forgetable)

Honestly it could turn out okay with some good writers, but 343's track record has been so wonky so far that I think it'll be foolish of us to expect anything great.

>>170355770
Where Halo 5 goes with its story isn't really the issue with it. It's how it gets there.
Osiris is pretty bad. Like, everything about them is pretty terrible.
Also, the Guardians are dumb. Literally the Mass Effect 3 reapers in both appearance and purpose.
Why they couldn't just have her take control of the Halo rings and threaten the universe with those is beyond me.

They fucked the scaling hard on the remake. The whole middle part is like twice as wide, but the outer rooms are like 80% of the original's size. Also, the teleporters worked differently in 3. Your orientation was forced, so you couldn't walk through a port backwards and be facing the other way. Which was really shitty for the teleporter into shotgun.

Bungie just neglected to include them in-game (or most things from the expanded lore, really)

So writers always found one way or another to have them be elsewhere. Chief was kinda doing his own thing for most of the trilogy anyways.

Fun fact though. Linda WAS on the pillar of Autumn during CE,she was technically just dead and frozen in a cryopod. They show this in CE:anniversary.

Nobody ever thought that. The only time he was the "last spartan" was in CE, where to literally everyone in the events of the game, he WAS the last known Spartan because they were stranded on some fuck-nowhere ring

The first track of the Halo 2 soundtrack, the track that advertised the game, is called "The Last Spartan"

You're missing the point. Most players don't know the lore. They just know chief, cortana, and the covenant.

>>170397253
So people are more likely to read the titles of songs in a soundtrack than to hear about the expanded lore?

Ingame, the important part, they NEVER once mention chief as the "last spartan" or anything similar to that. It was on the case for CE, which again, he was the last known Spartan to the crew of the pillar of Autumn.

I didn't get into the books since after Halo 4, and I still knew this.

Of course. Halo players live the music after all. There are big halo you tubers that didn't even know who blue team were.

>>170397780
Most people assumed the spartans died on reach.

There was a very poor understanding of what reach was and what it meant. If anyone read any books, they only read the first one, which makes it look like chief was the sole surviving spartan.

Jun didn't die on reach

He went with halsey

Halsey was alive in 4

I never read the books.
I always had a vague understanding of the extra lore. I knew there were more spartans at one point, but that they were all gone. This is pretty much what everyone I knew seemed to believe, including people I talked to online.

By the time 5 came out, I had done some reading and knew about blue team, but there's no way anyone that didn't read the books knew who they were when 5 started up. The game just kind of has them there.

The Normies who play the games definitely don't know the difference between the Spartan 2's and 4's, so I'm left wondering why nobody complained when there was Spartans showing up out of nowhere in halo 4?

It's because nobody ever assumed chief was the last Spartan past CE
>>
>>170398681
>It's because nobody ever assumed chief was the last Spartan past CE
If by nobody you mean most people, then sure.

You guys ALL have it wrong. My normie friend was looking at my CE manual one day, and he said "Wait, chief isn't the last Spartan, what about the ones on multiplayer??"

>>170398681
Nigger, the fact that people are already saying they didn't know and know other people that didn't know throws your "nobody" argument out the window.
Stop speaking for more than just yourself. Just say YOU knew.

The point is that plenty didn't know who the hell blue team were when they were suddenly just... there. At the beginning of the game.
>>
>>170398734
Then I'll ask again, why was nobody confused when more Spartans showed up in Halo 4
>>
>>170398681
I knew there were other spartans, but I had no idea who blue team were. I honestly thought they were new spartans assigned to chief until Locke said they grew up together. Then I had to check Wikipedia to figure out who they were. That's terrible implementation.
>>
>>170398907
>Then I'll ask again, why was nobody confused when more Spartans showed up in Halo 4
Because they were new spartans? I'm not seeing what you're getting at here. The game made it pretty clear that the Spartan IV's were new. Spartan Ops talked about it, the opening scene to 4 mentioned "replacing" the chief. Then cortana non-shalontly says "let's show these """""SPARTANS"""""" a thing or two.
>>
>>170398907
Basically people understood there were 2s, 3s, and 4s.
Most players thought Chief was the last 2. And even if they didn't, they had no idea why Kelly, Fred, and Linda were suddenly just there in 5.

All it takes is a singular Google search about halo or chief one day when you're bored and boom there you go

No books required. If you never did something like that, I can't see why you would search for the Halo page on 4chan either, or seen something about it in a different halo thread on /v/ or something. Seriously.
>>
>>170403603
CE didn't have the big bad didact or the messy cartoon exposition cutscene with librarian

Every character and faction in CE was introduced to where you basically understood them, didact was just like "ok he's a forerunner, but why is he so evil and pissed at humans" and all that shit, librarian was an even bigger mess. especially since anyone who read the terminals thought she was dead. Which she was. Just not techncially. Or some bullshit.
>>
>>170404363
Yeah, 4 was a big jumbled mess

CE was much simpler, and thus easier to comprehend for your average player

It's all well and good that the lore fans had stuff to connect the dots with in 4, but for normal players it was just confusing and brought up more questions than it answered
>>
>>170403603
>Halo 4 isn't any more relieant on the forerunner or travis books
Never said it was
>>
>>170404363
>>170404570
I don't follow. The only reason you know the covenant is bad in CE is because the manual tells you and they attack you in game.

4 tells you the didact is bad and he attacks you, and then it ALSO gives you his backstory in terminals

Why is the former okay and not the latter
>>
>>170405598
CE was made in the late 90's and story was definitely not as important, especially in an FPS

halo 4 was released in 2012 and had a much larger focus on story, I guess they just forgot to include explanations for the didact eh?

Yes, I recognize the terminals are there, but they are hidden and again, the average player won't watch them, and lastly they don't tell some of the important bits anyways. It couldn't have been SOOOO hard for them to have Cortana explain his story in a little scene.

It would have made the whole thing more stomachable.
>>
Don't be sad that halo is gone, be glad that it happened.
>>
>>170405995
But the complaint is that 4 relies on the EU and doesn't epxlain enough/isn't understandbale

Even if CE being old excuses it's lack of explanation, it still wouldn't explain why people got confused in one and not the other.

Since we are on a book discussion here, what is everyone's consensus on Fall of Reach? I'm a normie and some of the revelations like ONI kidnapping kids and replacing them with replicants so they could use them as guinea pig augmented child soldiers and turn them against their fellow humans who were rebelling is just not quite what I expected. I'm seriously wondering what the reception was like when it came out.
>>
>>170406941
I don't know about when it came out but it's a solid book and basically the foundation for the rest of halo lore.

Fit the whole "supersoldiers" feel of the games pretty well, while also representing it in a more realistic way.
>>
>>170407508
I'm starting to think the purpose of the EU is the convenience it gives 343. They can put the chief in a different situation each title with little explanation expected in game. What is their thinking that taking a plot fleshed out over several novels for the sole purpose of gutting the group of protagonist, half leaving for "reasons", just so the staff dont have to make a plot themselves and enjoy the fruits of bungies labor?

>>
>>170435530
Somewhat high, but unless it's releasing 2017 I doubt it
>>
>>170435530
>What are the chances we will see Halo news at E3?
There hasn't been a single E3 in the last 15 years that didn't have some Halo announcement, no matter how small.
Despite that, if there was ever a year where nothing was going to be announced, this would be it. A game just came out this year, H3A is all but officially not happening, and nobody should expect Halo 6 before 2018.

Instead, expect Microsoft to pour all their time and effort this year into scorpio. They've watched Sony become successful by neglecting the exclusive market and largely riding off of licensed multiplats, so Xbox will probably make the Carlsen that instead of having the best games, scorpio will be the definitive way to play the best games. If there is a Halo announcement, it will probably be a teaser for H6 with no in-game footage and very vague visuals. Perhaps news of how to get into the H6 beta at MOST.

Basically they can't beat Cortana but they can stop her from gaining access to the domain in the first place.
Cortana fires the halo rings and destroys pretty much everything about a third into the game. You go back to stop her but you go back too far, basically where Halo 3 ended.

Then what is a good helmet?
>>
>>170449279
Am I the only person who thinks all of those kinda look like shit?

Last game with good armour was Reach tbhfam
>>
>>170449454
Why, Achilles of course!
>>
>>170449482
Reach armor was also kind of shit outside of a half dozen options.
>>
>>170449482
Yeah basically.
But to be fair those are some of the better helmets in Halo 5.
>>
>>170449482
Yes, out of millions of people in this world, you're the only one with this unique thought.
>>
>>170449482
Essentially. Reach nailed the armor aesthetic.
That being said, not all Halo 5 armor is equally shit.

It's an expression you pedantic cunt

I love how mad people get when you kill them while you're wearing this

Why would you want a guardian model on your desk anyway?
It would be a constant reminder of 5's campaign.

>>170450921
I just want to finish it because I payed extra money for the special edition.

Have any of you fellas played evolve?

Given that ultimate edition will be free next week on, wanna know if I should be looking forward to it
>>
>>170451237
It can be fun, but make sure you have friends

Yes, at launch.

Many guaranteed there would be Forge and a File Browser with 5 at launch
>>
>>170448116
Look like decent guys.
They must have to deal with a lot of stress.
>>
>>170451636
Honestly having a file browser/game browser at launch would go a long way

How is /hg/ celebrating International Woman's Day?

I only have two IRL friends on xbox that I'd actually talk to, and not both at once as they're not friends with each other
Pretty annoying, might have to chat with randoms

Haven't played H5 in a minute, anything good added in the past few months? Might give it another run this weekend

>>170451431
The level design was actually pretty solid tho

Tonight marks my one week anniversary of nofap / noporn / nolewdimages etc etc

Actually feel good. So I'll celebrate by respecting women's bodily autonomy and by protesting the objectification of manipulated young women in the porn industry!
