What the heck is a forum signature!?!?

Hey, Merry Christmas everyone!

I was wondering if you know/think/assume/wish that Halo 3 would be released on the PC? I personally would love that. I think it would extend the life of the game dramatically.

Thoughts?

The legendary ending for Halo 4 is Masturcheef and Arby making love.

Seems like a good idea, but seeing how halo 3 has been out for at least three years, probably won't happen.

BUNGIE AND MICROSOFT FAILS HALO 2 VISTA.

Everytime someone buys a copy of Halo 2 Vista, a puppy dies.

Well, I believe everyone is/should be ready for Halo 3 for PC.

DX 11 Graphics cards, and there's plenty that are cheaper than Xbox 360 itself.

People would have higher Forge Budgets, due to the fact, PC's always have more RAM available compared to Xbox 360.

Higher RAM = Higher limits for everything, including Player limits. :D

I still think there's an interest in Halo 3 for PC, but Microsoft needs to commit themselves into caring for the Custom map making community, Halo 2 Vista was evident they didn't give two -blam!-s about map makers.

I'm ready... :D

We already have a big, dumb thread for this in the Halo PC forum.

I'd recommend posting there instead, as that forum tends to have more PC-enthusiasts than the Halo 3 forum.

it would make sense, but seeing as how the popularity of multiplayer in halo 3 is dropping, it probably would'nt make much of an impact.

When you have honest researched opinions, you get banned from Bnet alot...

Halo 2 Vista is downright AWFUL. They ruined the controls completely and because of this, the custom maps people took time making never got any attention.

In order for Halo 3 to work on the PC (and it should release eventually) these features would benefit it greatly:

* Bring back hitscan to Halo 3

* A REAL map editor, with even easier to use tools and an even greater number of options

* Optimatch playlists for people to find Custom Games

* Weapon tweaking/balancing. Keep the BR as it is (with hitscan), give the AR a buff and hitscan, buff dual wields etc

* Firefight in Halo 3 that works on Custom Maps, I know you want it :)

*More options for Armor, maybe a few new helmets and more color options, such as Visor.

* Dedicated servers for customs

* Custom button mapping for both the controller and the keyboard

* More customization and selection (such as being able to select weapons such as the Carbine, Beam Rifle and Sentinel Beam as weapons in custom games

I know this list is big, but the fact is after comparing Halo 2 to its Vista counterpart, there is NO comparison, the Xbox version wins every time.

The biggest problem with Halo 2 as a remake was that it didn't treat current gamers with respect. It actually took steps backwards from Halo 2, and that is NEVER a good thing for the PC gaming community, that expects daily patches and options.

Halo 3 should maintain its core on the PC but if its released in the 2011/2012 area, it needs to feel like a 2011 game. Thats why I'm worried about the 343 CE remake, can they keep the core gameplay elements intact, but make the game feel fresh?

Only time will tell, and I really would love Halo 3 on the PC.

If they want to make money on this, they need to support modding, and modding communities. :D
