No. No. And no again.

If CE is remade, the only changes from the original should be
-Better Graphics
-XBL support
-Better Netcode
-Forge (with a few forge world-esque maps of different themes)
-Halo 3 Theater

Nothing else needs to be changed.


If you think about it, they have much more room still if they only add those things. I'm sure they will allow you to pick up more weapons that you couldnt pick up in the original.

Besides that, I think a precision Rifle would work perfectly with the remake. Remakes are never exactly the same as the original..


YOU CANNOT IMPROVE UPON THE GAMEPLAY OF HALO CE. THE REST OF THE HALO SERIES IS A TESTAMENT TO THAT.

REMAKES ARE SUPPOSED TO BE AS CLOSE TO THE ORIGINAL AS POSSIBLE, WITH THE ADDITION OF SOME NEEDED IMPROVEMENTS. ADDING IN A BUNCH OF UNNECESSARY WEAPONS IS A STUPID IDEA AND WOULD SCREW UP THE WEAPON BALANCE.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND NOW THAT I'VE TYPED IT OUT IN PASSIVE AGRESSIVE CAPITAL LETTERS?


Everything can be improved. You're just afraid of change. I welcome any new additions to Halo CE remake and will laugh in your face when they do.

You live, you forge, you keep fighting.

The pistol is CE solution to the rifle

  • 11.30.2010 12:30 PM PDT

Having the sword in CE would dramatically change the game. So picking up other weapons shouldn't be allowed either.

A 3 shot kill pistol in MM would suck. Needs to be no less than and entire mag.

Why do you not want the pistol to fit that niche? It already does.


it's not good for competitive gameplay in my opinion. Having a weapon where you can easily spam 3 shots off to kill? it's fast, thats a good thing, but too fast.
Atleast, make it 4 shots to kill, or add the BR. The BR WORKED for competition in Halo 3 because off the bullet travel time, unlike Halo 2 were you could snipe with it.

When I play Halo CE with good people, kill times are extremely fast. It feels like COD. Also new medals should be added

Apparently you have never played CE. If you have then you would realize that it DOES NOT need any more weapons.

So, there's a lot of rumour, speculation, and many websites claiming that there will be a Halo CE remake.



No there isn't

*headdesk*

I am not afraid of change. Were I afraid of change, I'd still be playing hour long Perfect Dark matches with 8 Dark Sims. I'm wary of the fact that idiots like to suggest stupid ideas that they think will be cool, despite the fact that their ideas run counter to the spirit of the game they're suggesting things for.

I'm going to invade your heart like a barn swallow high on milk chocolate and grandma love.

Fairness is only possible within the limited powers of man. Elsewhere, there is only chance.

Thus I refute thee.

I would like to keep the weapons that Halo CE PC has.

Actually, I have it for PC in my laptop right now. I just played it last night. More weapons and a lot of extra things would maak this game boss.

I am an avid gamer with a passion to keep games fun and strategy provoking, rather than simply button mashing instant-reward games that plague the market nowadays. I'm not kind, but I'm rational, fair, and maybe, just maybe, somewhat intelligent.

Spamming the pistol WILL NOT get you a 3-shot, hell, a 6-shot for that matter. Holding down the trigger will guarantee that you do not get it. In order to 3-shot in CE, you have to give each bullet its own trigger pull. I hate how you anti-pistol people act as if it can be spammed like a CoD gun, it can't. I still play CE Xbox multiplayer to this day and I can attest that spamming will not work. The only change that should happen to the pistol is to tweak it so that it works online. CE's netcode is not set up for online, that's why Halo PC isn't that great.

If you played Halo CE then you would know at no point does MC encounter such a weapon and that is good, I pray for this "rumor" to be true because the BR/DMR has ruined all of halo for far to long.

Thank you friend

Only idiots won't accept possible changes. You're too obsessed with the original. The covies had barely and precision weapons, and the lack of weapons in Halo CE makes things sort of bland, allowing the pistol to dominate EVERYTHING. Like all game developers, they will attempt to add and BALANCE. Whether you like it or not, they will either nerf the pistol or add more weapons.

I can't believe this forum is so narrow minded. A remake of Halo CE in all of its originality would ONLY APPEAL TO ORIGINAL FAN BOYS. Anyone who becomes new to Halo wont like the small weapon base or anything.

I totally advocate more weapons for Halo CE. There aren't enough, and the pistol is horrible for competitive game play.

I'm playing Halo CE, I can kill very fast with it, atleast on PC. 3 shot minimum is still to fast, nerf it, or add a new weapon.

Once again, there isnt going to be one in the near future. Microsoft said this last month.
Good riddance too, dont try to fix what isn't broken. It's one of the classics and shouldn't be touched, like Super Smash Bros. and Super Mario 64.

The thing is 3 shots or 4 shots it still kills very fast. Couple that with the fact that only a small percentage of players can 3 shot with any sort of consistency (and that's on LAN, it'll be much more difficult when any sort of ping is involved), and the kill times will be fine.

It isn't the same as CoD. 3 shots to the toe kills you in CoD. In CE it takes 3 well placed shots, or else it becomes a 5 shot kill. And the pistol doesn't fire 15 rounds per second.

Unfortunately, 343 might not be composed of pro players, so I'm sure they will still have it take more shots to kill, but make it easier to hit the enemy.

Pssst....want a Forge World map?

Halo CE remake? Yes please, but classic weapon set ONLY, not nerfed, neither.

But as far as another matchmaking is concerned? Unnecessary - it will only draw the existing crowd away from Halo Reach.
To summarise:
We don't need another Halo (MM)
We don't need another rifle
All we want is life beyond armor lock

  • 11.30.2010 12:41 PM PDT

it should be in their but only as a custom game option, it should be in no way included in the campaign/matchmaking

Xbox is light years above PC for Halo CE. Also, how is the kill time too fast? Too fast for your poor reaction time to address? Or are you used to the molasses slow game play of Halo 3 and Reach? CE had the perfect balance; now it seems them and every Bnet fanboy acts as if a 1.1 second kill time is too fast. CoD kill times are too fast for the lack of skill it takes, CE takes so much more skill and has slightly slower kill times. It's fine, the pistol does not need to be nerfed.

Kill time are too fast when I so much as look at someone and they're dead. I play Halo CE, and Im good at it. I think I know if it's too fast or not. In my opinion, the Halo 3 BR had the PERFECT kill time, not too fast or too slow, but it could totally -blam!- if use properl.
