Rebirth? Are we dead yet? Not according to my calendar!
But still the game could use some new life.

So we (yes, I'm not alone) are proud to present a "secret" ( as in I'm not telling you anything) project I'm involved in, to bring new life to Halo PC.

Project 2: Rome0 Vict0r Beta 9

So why this topic?

I'll be posting multiple videos (teasers) on my Youtube Channel regarding this project.
Each of the teasers will include hints towards what the project could be about. At a certain point we'll reveal the project. At that point the project is also ready for use and for you to enjoy.
The first teaser is online since yesterday.

And can be found here:

Note it's very short! But it says enough at this stage.
Next one will be a bit longer.

Feel free to discuss. share, comment, rate subscribe do whatever. It's all for the greater good of the Halo 1 PC community.

Yours truly,

Sean Aero

Let me guess. You're trying to emulate Halo 1 on Halo 2 Vista or on Halo 3. Somehow.

Sounds crazy, but if you can make it work I'll give it a try. Be sure to note that copy-right prevents you from making your own Halo game if you make a profit off it. However, if this is free, you're safe.

Main goal of this project is to bring new life back to Halo pc, in what form it will come who knows.

Anyhow teaser 2 is online:

Oh, okay. You're just making a new story. Sounds lame.

Look, if you're wanting to get fans, you're either going to need to keep it secret until you can show some real info or give up secrecy and tell us more. Just releasing teasers with clips from other things (which, by the way, is even more lame) isn't going to get anyone hyped. We need real information on what this is. If you can't show us anything except two bad-quality teasers, then it's not ready to have anything revealed.

Sorry, bud. You just can't offer two bad-quality teasers and expect to have people care.

EDIT: I'm really not trying to sound very rude. I'm trying to give you feedback and suggestions, not put you down.

Thanks for the feedback. Appreciate it.

True.
Motivating people on the internet ( making them care) is a hard thing to do. Especially if you don't have a team of experts on your hand.
You should consider that this is a project done by fans. We are learning as we go. We have agreed on the fact that it could turn out to be a total disaster leaving behind disappointed players. On the other hand we are part of a dieing race it seems, anything Halo PC related seems to be falling apart. The community seems to be disappearing. There are no central point where people come together. If you type Halo in on Google the first 3 pages will be about Halo 3 (xbox 360). So can it hurt trying?

As for the teasers,

They are mainly meant for fun. Our main focus is on the project itself the teasers are just a bonus.
In the teasers we are giving hints, nothing more. So if you see something copied, it could be that it has to do something with the project. What you make of it is up to you.
( I will confirm that thinking about a release of Halo 3 by us is not an option.)

As for hyped. It's a project after all, how to hype,get people to care and be accurate, is part of learning from the project. I mean how many ideas in this world have really turned in to a "Hype"?

In that case you'll have to wait for no.3. Here we'll get more to the point.
We knew before the creation of the first teaser people would lose total interest if no.3 would not reveal anything at all.
(Yes, we do have a plan on how we approach things. Success rate not included :P)
The first two teasers were made to put down the question "What could it be?" and hopefully get people interested enough to find out what exactly it is.
In teaser no 3., we'll start explaining what the project is and probably get into more detail.

Thanks again for the feedback.

hmmm, this doesn't sound too bad, and it is true that halo pc is dying
(note the correct spelling of 'dieing'). Anyway its dying and lets all just hope this doesn't suck as much as halo 2. (no offence bungie, but it did suck.)

I switched it around in the end, was not sure thought dying comes from "dye" as in change the color of your hair. So figured I should just stick with "die" and add "-ing".
Thanks for the correction ^_^

Good luck with your project.FINISH THE FIGHT 2009!And yeah,I'm going to ask you a question for the game itself.Can you add a LIVE connection like XBL and Games for Windows LIVE.So you can add friends,Send invites and Such.If you are going to add this I will sincerely thank you.Also I have H2v LOL.

All I ask is that you don't try to capture me.

This forum doesn't get a lot of traffic. If you really want to advertise your project, try posting it here.

Sorry, this really doesn't see like it will go anywhere, I'll be waiting for CMT which (IMO) is making the biggest and best mods for Custom Edition
