My favorite group.

This better be a joke.

Seriously.

I really like their picture caption for their third request:
We want this, just online...
THAT IS AN IMAGE OF DEATH ISLAND, YOU LETHARGICALLY-MINDED SILLY PERSONS!

Oh yeah, and "Scale back the flood." Wait, what? Do they understand Halo 1's narrative on a basic level? I guess I'll just go ahead and "scale back" the bridge battle scene in The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. And remove all that Odessa crap from Battlship Potemkin. And to top it off, I'll have Greedo shoot first.

Wow I'm actually really surprised someone would want all of those things... Just leave the game basically how it was don't go making it Halo CE Reach Edition.

It's a joke. It least, I hope.

so true.

Unfortunately.. I don't think that was a joke.

While the Flood weren't that fun to fight in subsequent Halo games, I loved them in the first. I'm one of the few people that really liked the Library. You're totally alone with this insane AI, and the constant waves of flood and the search for shotgun rounds feels like a great battle of atricion. Love it.

I <3 drop shields

DMR and Armor Abilities in Halo!? That's ridiculous. I sincerely hope they don't change up the multiplayer sandbox from what it was in the original halo. That's half the reason why I'm super psyched for this. Halo: CE multiplayer with Reach matchmaking/graphics/netcode = awesome.

This. No reason to add Armor Abilities or the DMR. The CE pistol is way better than the DMR.

I'd want the campaign to feel the exact same, except for a graphical update (Reach's graphics, presumably). I don't want to be able to play through The Library, just jetpacking over Flood the whole time. If Armor Abilites were in Matchmaking, I wouldn't buy this game. I want a Halo: Combat Evolved remake/remaster, not Halo: Reach Evolved.

4 player co-op and xbl in Halo CE would be awesome. They might as well do a remake since it's right after Reach.

RIP Halo 2: November 9, 2004-May 10, 2010
I was the 2nd to last person to get kicked off Halo 2, see the thread Here

I don't think that was a joke... but I really hope it was.

This is actually the stupidest thing ever posted on B.net:

Halo Reach armour abilities


I stopped reading there.

Excellent troll, 10/10.

I caught on after they asked for less Flood.

I do not think that that article (the equivelant of a blog post for the most part) is a joke, but I do think it is funny that most of his suggestions made the game easier.

I would make it even harder or add things that are unique to CE, not already in other games (except skulls)! I have not played H3, ODST or Reach, and I only play campaign CE and 2 but from what I hear all of the fuss is pretty much over what the MC can wear, look like, and how bad ass his armor can be, and multiplayer. So freeeking what, the idea of the game is to kill -blam!-, not look good doing it to others, and personally I prefer to play alone, not with a bunch of little kids screaming at me (especially when their tactics are laughable). I would consider adding the skulls, because they make it harder in ways. I would update the graphics, and I would make the game even harder in any way possible! I would not add weapons that already exist in any of the Halo games, but something new, and in the vein of the CE weapons would be fine. Maybe something that they planned to have, but did not put in and was not in any other game. What is the use as a consumer to buy a 10th anniversary item for boo coo bucks just to have the same thing in a different package? If the are going to do it, change it in some way that does not effect the story that we love, the maps that we love and hate, the music that is awesome or the feel of the game, just make it harder!

Yes that is a long run on paragraph, as a rant should be! I even contradict myself nicely, ah, a very good rant indeed!

He makes some very valid points... but they'd have to be implemented just right. Personally, I think that AAs would be a nice addition, but you'd have to script them so that they didn't mess up certain battles. For instance, putting Jetpack in 343 Guilty Spark would be just plain idiotic, as the level would lose everything that made it even vaguely challenging (since most of the flood don't wield weapons). As for the DMR, well, I'm for that. And who can argue with 4-Person campaign co-op? It doesn't detract anything at all.

So basically people don't want a remake of Halo:CE, they just want to trash up a classic game with all of Reach's stupid bells and whistles.

Awesome.

It's quite simple.

Keep weapons the same.

Keep damage tables the same.

Keep characters/enemies the same.

Keep physics the same (the exact same).

Keep graphics mostly the same (slight touch-up, okay. reach graphics, no).

Keep armor abilites out.

Keep campaign the same.

Keep and use all the multiplayer maps, as well as the PC ones.

Add online multiplayer (only reason ever to do this, albeit a big one).

Done.
