Subject: halo CEA should it be remade on PC

Do what? I have the Index! You can just float and sputter!

Just ask Microsoft to distribute the new graphics engine overlay... (like that would work). But for real that is what we would need to play it on pc.

yes it is 343


No, to the best of our understanding, it's using the same physics engine and other parts but the graphics engine is most certainly not one of them. It's patently clear and 343 have stated that themselves.

ok whatever thats just not what i see and hear all the time

Yeah. That's right. I don't have a 50 in H3. I never got Onyx in Reach. If a game sucks too much, I won't even bother trying for such trivial "accolades". Besides, I've done way more things that take far more skill and talent than anything that can be done in a video game.

"In fact, the game is running two engines at once; the original engine to retain the classic Halo gameplay, overlaid with the new graphics engine."

It's not that hard to understand, dude.

From my forum on the flood:

Halo 2 vista didn't seem to work for my computer so he told me I could get a refund or get the next Halo game for PC free. Uhhh what? For a sec I thought he meant they were just doing like a Halo Anniversary for PC, but he said it wasn't Halo 1 or 2 and it would come out in the next 6-12 months

O_o

I'm sure we'd need HPC's source code as well.

They would have announced that by now. At least I think they would have.

This thread is full of glaring examples of your ignorance.

Using a different graphics engine that we have no access to though. Ripping the assets and dumping them in HPC as it is wouldn't work.

Seven remade multiplayer maps for Halo: Reach will be included.

Ever heard of Ascension? The tool that allows you to rip textures from Halo: Reach maps?

Now, let's think, how many textures "sets" are in campaign that aren't in multiplayer maps?

In the trailer I saw Hang 'em High, that one map that takes place on a covenant ship that I haven't played in forever, and Battle Creek.

If we rip the textures from all seven maps, and fill in the gaps with community-made textures from FTW, then I think we could get a verry nice looking Halo.

Keep in mind also that although the graphics engine is proprietary, the original Blam engine is preserved. Meaning that old extraction techniques might not be useless.

I wish it were this simple, but recoding a game for console and then porting that to pc is no easy feat. That's why h2/3/reach based maps in halo custom edition look HORRID. -blam!- on a shingle...

No, that's because Halo CE lacks some of the features of Halo 2 and 3.

Actually, a lot.

The situation with porting those maps has little correlation to porting an entire game. The CE:A remake uses the PC engine, I believe, so thus it shouldn't be that difficult to port it to the PC.

Also, keep in mind that the Xbox 360 would have basically been a PC if it wasn't for the processors, which I don't think are Intel. But the console is Directx9 based.

nah HALO is best for xbox, CoD4 is best for PC. no one will play it HALO C.E.A on PC.

These sea urchins are why we can't have nice things.

Heck, I'm still waiting for halo 3 PC.

I don't have an xbox and I don't want one either to be honest.
Got one free, I'm pretty happy playing Reach with it.

I wish we could all get free XBoxes. Sigh...

I agree. It should be made for PC. If they were to do that, they should have an updated Custom Edition for it. That would be awesomer than ever!

  • 07.15.2011 10:29 AM PDT

:3 I will die. :[

Just get Halo PC and download a rehashed "Halo 3 Mod" and, it will be like Halo CEA. The graphics are just similar to the failing "Halo 3 Mods". When I first saw the Trailer, I was underwhelmed by the looks. I even asked myself: "Why buy a game that, I already bought 10-11 years ago for $40, of the change in Graphics?"
