Subject: 343 have ruined a good game

To be honest, this was a smart decision on the developer's part. If they had tried to remake CE with multiplayer, which is exceptionally difficult, they would have taken population from Reach and Halo 3. Instead, they simply made it an Arcade game and a map pack for Reach. This maintains their base population, and might gain a few more people as well.

Since it's only $20, I will most likely be grabbing it.

all that the new halo CE remake is:
halo reach multiplayer
with a map pack
and halo CE story.

the reason that people wanted the game to be remade is so they could reminisce the good old day of playing halo system link at LAN parties and so on.


Original CE- Delicious Burger
HD Remake- Burger with your favorite sauce, plus fries.

You can eat the Burger even better now, but the Fries are optional. Both are good, but you don't have to eat both.

Just because you just like playing with friends doesn't mean they should take out multiplayer.... That... makes... no sense, sir. How does adding in new stuff instantly make it ruined when all the original components remain there?

and to have an experience they have not had before (playing halo CE online.

as if people want to play the halo CE campaign when it doesn't even look that much better than it did before.
yes of course people will enjoy the campaign.

i would of preferred it to be a full priced game but to be a proper remake ( including online play)



price of game:

halo reach multiplayer £0 (most people already have it)
with a map pack £10 (normal price for map pack)
and halo CE story. £5 (compared to halo:odst which was
£20, because all there doing is putting a layer of graphics on top of the original game, no need for script writers, concept artist, voice actors and most other game developers. its not alot of work compared to an original game)

how do you know its going to be $20? where did you get that info from?

but reach is not doing as good as they thought it would do. so for the year in between before halo 4 comes out it would of given people something to play. and personally i would of bought it at full price if they had the original multiplayer

all the original components don't actually remain though, multiplayer was an original component.

I just care about campaign playing like the original and the remade CE maps for multiplayer. I'm fine with Reach gameplay for the remade MP maps.

No actually, that is not complete bull-blam!-. Bungie has been commenting on this for years, that they cannot simply "patch" CE to play on xbl and the biggest reason for that is because they would have had to remake the game from the ground-up as it was never made for xbl multiplayer. That means there was never any consideration for weapon balance outside of split-screen or LAN, and that IS A BIG DEAL.

If you think it's a simple or smart thing to take existing CE MP and throw it on live you understand relatively little about game design or game balance.
It's not complete bull-blam!-, but it is pretty garbage. The reason it works on LAN at all is because of bandwidth. Honestly, if everyboady had cable or fiber, the game would run fine most of the time. The game doesn't send that much information console to console. But the low standards of "broadband" logistically kill hce multiplayer cuz about half the population would lag too severely to play a decent game.


But that is in no way the fault of the developer or 343i as the guy I quoted was insinuating, that's my point.
Oh, I agree with your stance. I*'m just pointing why it still does suck but it's not really in their control.
