What makes chief a COOL GUY, but locke a boring ninny?

>>171418194
In CE, Chief came back for Keyes twice despite being ordered not to, got sassy with Cortana when she started getting really bitchy around the middle, and juggled a grenade as an answer to blowing up Halo.
Locke is just a fan of green lights.

>>171418194
Locke has 0 personality while Chief has at least cracked a few jokes.
A lot of Chief's behavior is bland but in CE his first line of dialogue is still a joke, he's had a few of those.

>>171418194
Somewhat of a character, which they refused to do for Locke

Didn't realize we had a new thread.

Anyway report "LessThan 90 IQ" for unsporting conduct. Specifically, team killing with a scout hog.

>>171418194
The Rookie has more personality than Locke, and he doesn't even have a voice.

>>171420204
Because Rookie and Chief is a playable character while Locke is an OC donus steel that 343 tried to front their mystery plot

I fucking loved the Rookie, he didn't say shit but acted like a badass.

I enjoyed playing as him more then I did the Chief in CE because of how Rookie was actually alone in New Mombosa.

>>171420726
It would have been a lot better if he wasn't going around punching brute chieftains to death and you had to actually be scared of getting into fights but Rookie was cool because he got shit done anyway

You are currently browsing /hg/ thread #293.
The featured map is "Infinity"

And with that, we have run through all the maps for Halo: Combat Evolved. What a journey it's been since Blood Gulch was used in thread #185 as the first corresponding map for these posts. It helps to serve as a reminder that as we move forward towards thread #300 and beyond, we always remember the game that started it all, without which there would be no /hg/ to begin with.

Not all of them.
Molten and The Rig for instance are very different. But Torque/Stasis and Empire/Eden are essentially the same map. They play slightly differently, but they're essentially the same map.

>>171431267
Put reach's total back down to 9, because you can't even play the DLC ones any longer.

It's kinda pathetic how few maps reach had, did bungie think forge would make up for it so much?

>>171434468

Invite friends to game.
Load up maps.
Play maps.
Wow what a concept.
>It's kinda pathetic how few maps reach had, did bungie think forge would make up for it so much?
It has more than CE and 3 less than 2. If we're considering that pathetic, then we might as well consider 5's lack of ground up maps in exchange for cheap remixes pathetic.

>>171434345
PiP is coming.

>>171434468
Technically there's over 80 Reach maps available in matchmaking if you count all the Forge World varients. There's a bigger difference between cliffhanger and Atom then there is between 5's Eden and empire.

Of course, this is irrelevant because maps shouldn't "not count" just because you can't play them in matchmaking. And you can by the way. You need to make sure everyone in the lobby has them though.

>>171434468
WTF I hate Reach DLC now.
Oh wait, no I dont, because at least they didn't ever prevent me from playing traditional playlists because I didn't have certain maps installed.
Besides, I can have friends over and load up the maps for some system link fun, no XBL required.

>>171436181
Well I've never played Destiny, but I've always enjoyed custom matches with people I know more than matchmaking, so... to each his own?
Maybe it's just because I'm an old timer that grew up in the Halo 2 days where the standard after a match was grouping up and playing a map with the people you wanted to outside of matchmaking.

Either way, it was never a problem for me to play the Reach DLC.

MW2 has splitscreen but it's very VERY limited in what you can do.
For instance, you're restricted to the basic level 1 class guns with guest acvounts. You can't use any weapon/killstreak you want in offline/split screen unless you unlock them online. A real bummer.
Black Ops fixed this.

Not because of the conclusions he comes to, but the ways he articulates his evidence and draws connections to corresponding influences from other games and the industry.
It's a very well paced and conversed video with good references and clear demonstration of knowledge on the various subjects.

TL;DR it's alike a Raycevik video with humor added in.

Local multiplayer counts, but I don't see how you are defending the lack of matchmaking

>>171436612
My friends don't play shitty games like halo Reach and destiny, so I agree with him in that aspect.

Using outside sources like group forums or customs posting or whatever, it shouldn't be needed

You would think that bungie. The company who shaped and pioneered the entire modern console online system, would be smart enough to put a group board or something in their game. Which other MMO's have had for decades. But nope!

Well, you don't need 13, but if you want that many for some reason than you can easily find a group through various Xbox One clubs. The Halo Customs club has multiple Halo Reach groups ready to play DLC maps at many times a week.
>>171439595
Oh, well you don't even like Halo Reach then, so there's nothing to complain about.

Shitting on one while defending the other is hypocritical. They're both so tremendously flawed that praising one and criticizing the other as shit is fast track way to having your opinion be disqualified by most.

>>171440671

For you maybe. I generally can't stand matchmaking. Too much of a focus on sweaty play. I prefer playing with friends.
It certainly beats keeping people out of playlists due to not having the DLC either way.

>>171440791
I don't understand what you're trying to say here?

CE has matchmaking on MCC and a server browser on PC. I can play it whenever I like.

I can't play the reach DLC maps whenever I like, because there is no matchmaking for them. Only the 9 launch maps and whatever forge variants are in there. The majority of reach's real maps are only available in customs now.

What about these statements do you find so disagreeable with?

>>171440671
I disagree, completely actually, with the notion that custom match lobbies are lesser in any extent to matchmaking. In fact, I would argue tats the most pure varient of Halo as a social game.

HOWEVER

I appreciate you actually having the balls and posting your Gamertag. I scanned your game history and you don't have any games on their with significant progress that I wouldn't deem as at least alright. So all the power to you.

>>171441585
>Can I turn CE on right now and play matchmaking on it?

Yes actually, via XBC. I did a little in december.

>>171441663
So you played LAN and not matchmaking.

>>171441332
I never said that customs were lesser. Customs are the heart&soul of halo.

except in the aspect of taking longer to set up and get organized, that's kinda the point of the "matchmaking" thing.

All I have been saying this whole time is that I wish those DLC maps would be easily available in matchmaking, it's everyone else who doesn't seem to think the same for some reason. Reach is fun, but only having 9 real maps online is a huge dissapointment.

Who would win in a fight between a squad of odsts and a Spartan IV? Aren't the IVs supposed to have very minor enhancements?

In your happiest dreams, what genre would you like to see Halo tackle in a potential sequel/spinoff?

I'd love to see a gritty space western, possibly because I've seen Logan, Hell or High Water, and Once Upon a Time in the West only a couple weeks apart from each other this month. Although with Halo's current mess of space politics and apocalyptic schemes I don't know what story it could tell.

>>171441502
So they didn't increase the time in Halo 5? Because the time between that double and triple seemed ridiculous.

>>171441585
No, but you couldn't do that in 2001 either.

You USED to be able to play reach DLC in matchmaking, you can't anymore as far as I'm aware.

I agree with wiz in that aspect, reach DLC maps and ODST firefight are 2 parts of halo that have been sort of lost to time.

So it takes a Saturday night for this general to not be dead? I'll take it

Who's trying to play boyos

>>171441997
>No, but you couldn't do that in 2001 either.
So it was literally unplayable and therefore worse than Reach missing three maps.

>>171441920
I would want to see a Mass Effect styled space opera where you play as a joint spec ops squad of elites, hunters and humans as you go around the galaxy visiting covenant homeworlds and covertly fighting the Storm and ONI

We can't currently play CE without paying for a $40 expansion pack to play it online. If local doesn't count, then CE had no multiplayer.

>>171442070
Nobody ever said it was literally unplayable, what the hell are you talking about

What is so wrong about wanting matchmaking??


Also, >3 maps
Breakpoint, tempest, Anchor 9, condemned, Highlands, battle canyon, penance, high noon, ridgeline, solitary, and breakneck
That's 11 more maps compared to the 9 maps reach currently has

I'm inclined to think it's the former, even though it soidns stupid, because he got the new shields and firmware and boost/ground-pound stuff

>>171445563
Either the former or they just gave the suit an entire overhaul to include the new hardware and stuff.

>>171445676
if Chief and Locke are wearing the same tier armor and Chief also has 1000x stronger roids, why was the game and marketing pretending that Locke had even the slightest prayer of winning against him?

>>171445964
Because it wouldn't have been interesting otherwise.

>>171445964
The fight was pussy shit. Completely irredeemable.

343 should have set the fight up as Chief solo vs Team Osiris to make it realistic while still making it a challenge for Chief. Maybe harken back to the time where young John gets jumped by a group of ODSTs and kills one of them by making him nearly kill a member of Osiris, so Locke would actually have a reason to hate him instead of

>>171441920
Imagine ODST, using the assassination mechanics/animations, primarily built around stealth and no power armor, with the missions focused on assassinations/capturing territory for ONI/the UNSC.

You know, what Halo 4.5 should have had Locke do so we learned about his character.

what's with the reddit circle jerk about no magnums in BTB?

who the fuck cares? BTB plays great

>>171452239
No it doesn't

Most of the maps were literally designed for AR/Magnum starts, so 343's "solution" to solve all the BR sniping was to just spam more rocks and obstacles everywhere

Just look at Valhalla to see

not sure why that's a bad thing anon

>>171452239
They were designed for magnum/ar starts.
The H5 BR is too easy to use at range which messes up play on the maps, H5 magnum is closer to H3 BR in terms of effective range.

>>171452164
Nah I'm not really into UFC. Thanks for the offer though :3

ah well there it is then. I guess if you're looking more of an h3 btb experience then I can see how h5 btb is not desirable.

personally, I find h5 btb similiar to reach btb, which is my favorite variant of btb.

>>171479548
>Is Halo 5 the sweatiest halo?
Absolutely.
And that's not necessarily a universally bad thing. If anything it's a great casual filter. Of course it naturally results in certain negative effects as well such as low playlist populations.

>>171479548
Ranking system is more casual friendly compared to H2.

>>171455816
Ah, thought you were more annoyed about the music or something

>>171479548
Yes.
The ranks reset but the gameplay is more ultra balanced so there's no RNG factorization at all to help the weak fight back against the stong. It's 100% survival of the fittest.

>>171480074

It's unfortunate because Warzone had a chance to be a good less sweaty alternative to arena but it takes it way waaaay too far in that direction to the point where it's basically Halo 4 multi with even more RNG plus microtransactions.

That being said I look forward to a more polished warzone in H6. I have no hope on the req system not returning, but they can definitely fix other aspects of the mode.

For a continuation to a very closed ending, H4 manages to make a new story that's not very heavily focused in past events. The pacing is pretty decent, except for the librarian cutscene. The characters were decent despite not being as memorable as the ones from the original trilogy. It even managed to get a very conclusive ending despite having a sequel planed.

If he knew the prophesy was false, why did he try to activate all the rings?

>>171502368
He knew the Ark was out of range of all the other installations.
His plan was to get his most loyal troops to the ark, fire the rings, killing humanity and the flood (and elites), and then return to the Galaxy through the portal to rule unopposed.
Truth specifically had the execution of the elites planned ahead of time because he knew the brutes were dumb enough to buy whatever excuse he made up about how the journey didn't work. The elites wouldn't have bought it.

>>171502368
Lighting the rings from the ark wouldn't have killed him. He was just trying to kill off humanity and other enemies.
He had orchestrated the entire elite rebellion behind the scenes because he knew the elites would have questioned why they had not embarked on the journey after the lighting. With the Brutes he would have just made something up like "the God's have cleansed the universe of our enemies but our work is not yet done" or some shit.

>that's the problem. he hasn't done anything.
- stopped the covenant from developing a fatal human extinction disease on the remnants of Alpha Halo
- led a team of spartans to successfully secure Dr. Halsey
- Single-handedly defeated and killed Jul M'Dama
- held his own against the master chief in 1v1 Combat, winning the CQB portion of the fight
- Saved the Arbiter's life
- Saved Buck's life twice
- Fought side by side with the arbiter against the last stand of the covenant
- Rescued the master chief and blue team from Cortana's clutches

He's done plenty. More than any other character that's not the chief actually.

I would have been giddy if the new season was even half as good as the old show Jesus Christ this is visceral as fuck. It might even be better than the old show had Mako been able to do the voice

>saved Arby's life
I realize what happens in my playthrough isn't necessarily "canon", but I've stood there on legendary and watched Arbiter and the SOS take out everybody in the room with no problem.
