Halo 2 for Life!

Halo fans should have the choice between all halo games online mp.

I hate how 343 just sucked all the fun out of the remake of ce by making the mp = reach.

they shouldn't have been lazy and actually made a true remake deserving of ce statrue.

Before you make more of a fool of yourself just know that it is a 100% HD remake of Halo CE. Nothing more. The MP you saw is footage of classic maps that are being released for Reach. What the remake ACTUALLY is, is a $60 HD version of a $10 game that you probably already own.

If you didn't Play Halo: CE or Halo 2 MP, your opinion about Halo means nada.

CE + H2 >>>>>>>>>>>>>> H3+Reach+H4

They dont want to let people buy the classic Halos b/c they know that everyone who does will realize just how -blam!- Halo 3 and Reach gameplay really is in comparison.

CE: HD will have the CE multiplayer in HD. Not on XBL. Nothing new is added. Its just a spit shined (spit on) version of CE. What are you confused about?

The multiplayer is for Anniversary, there isn't any plans for a map pack for Reach. Also, it is $40 USD, not $60, and it's an enhanced version of that $10 game. So no one already owns it.

pretty much this. i cant believe they would do this... i mean who honestly wanted a halo CE remake for the campaign we've all played 50 times... i want a good multiplayer that rewarded skillful players... not this n00b friendly -blam!- called halo reach.

Your wrong, unfortunately... I've watched multiple videos and even noticed Halo: Reach weapons IN THE HALO ANNIVERSARY MULTIPLAYER GAMEPLAY! In the 343 vidoc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-5bC5tLR9E You will notice DMRs are evident in a few of those clips.

SO Halo anniversary = OLD HALO CAMPAIGN (exactly the same with updated prettyness) and it comes with a HALO REACH multiplayer map pack of Halo CE remakes for multiplayer.

Which SUCKS! Agree 100% with the OP.

At this point I hope it IS essentially a new map pack for Reach much like ODST was to H3. It certainly does NOT appear to be the same MP gameplay because of the assassination and I'm pretty sure I saw a DMR at 3:10ish in the video. The last thing I want is a Reach-based multiplayer that's not compatible with the rest of Reach. That would be the worst.

That's such a bull-blam!- answer. "It wouldn't be the same game you remembered it to be."

Yeah, no -blam!-; it would be better. Everyone wanted Halo: CE to be on Xbox Live. That's why so many people were doing it through xbox connect.

And as for whoring the pistol...how is that any different from people whoring a battle rifle or DMR? If bungie really wanted a variety of weapons to be used in matchmaking, then they wouldn't start every match off with everyone having a DMR and they wouldn't liberally scatter them around the map.

In most of the Halo CE maps there was only one area where the pistol spawned anyway and snipers could easily take them out. I swear to god...all this whining about the pistol is a bunch of bull-blam!-. In Halo CE you could even make it so that you started out with a plasma pistol instead of a pistol. That way you would actually have to be good and work for your weapons.

Leave it to Bungie to do the opposite of what everyone wants once again. Bungie is just a horrible game developer that got lucky once.

READ ILOVEMONKEY's LINK. It is a map-pack for Reach, there is no CE multiplayer.

I bring knives to gunfights.

I am very saddened by this....

That explains the multiplayer quite well, but it's not sufficient for Campaign. However, I like the idea of switching graphics in-game.

Glory and fame, blood is our name!
Souls full of thunder, hearts of steel!
Killers of men, a warrior's friend!
Sworn to avenge our fallen brothers!
Sons of the gods, today we shall die.
Open Valhalla's door!
Let the battle begin, with swords in the wind! Hail Gods of War!

Anyone know if it's gonna be an Arcade title, or a hard-disk release?

Hey, now, I really like Halo 3 and Reach for what they are; insulting those games is no way to express your opinion about the lack of real Halo MP in the remake.

That being said, what the -blam!-, 343i? What. The. -blam!-.

  • 06.06.2011 9:10 PM PDT

I agree. This is boneheaded. From what I could see, the CE remake uses new textures, and that's it. The same crappy warthog physics (fun as hell, though!), everything. Part of what I was looking forward to was a re-interpretation of the classic CE art direction that started the whole Halo design theme. This doesn't extend the story in any way. Terminals? Those were in Halo 3. In CE let's try something else.

  • 06.06.2011 9:20 PM PDT

I am disappoint. They better well fix the multiplayer of Reach ten times over, else I will never trust 343 again to make a Halo game.

"Disrupt" Reach's community? How about add to it? It was not a smart decision to not have the core CE gameplay to balance out with the maps. Hell, if the maps are a DLC anyway, why not have a different gameplay to go with it? At the very least, we have the Classic playlist, but that's just me being optimistic.

343i, not Bungie. Its still a travesty, but do not focus your disappointment upon the wrong source.

  • 06.06.2011 9:43 PM PDT

I agree with OP, I think they should have at least put the guns and all that stuff they changed into the MP, they could have done something cool with the multiplayer.... I didn't want to see AA's again, I wanted a better/more classic multiplayer experience than I am given with reach.


In fact it is what I expected.

I am an orange mist amongst a sea of blue, so my flames may stand out and represent all those who trully believe in this great sacriment of Bungie history, let my story be told as the only legendary still standing even after I fall Just as my comrades did so graciously to fight for the true loyal.
If you have legendary, would you stand by my side and go forth into a sea blue and demise as my brothers fighting for those who are trully loyal to Bungie?

I heard it's only supposed to be $40 since the multiplayer would be a seperate disk similar to ODST.
