Just like the original game. There would be local and LAN MP only.

I don't think so. From the clips, I heard that the MP would be incorporated into CEA.

mark vs are awesome.

It will supposedly come with Halo:CE maps remade for halo reach multiplayer however you do not need reach to play them. Its pretty much a part of the halo reach matchmaking completed designated for anniversary. Hope this Helped!

I'm hoping. Someone else had a theory that since they're basically rebuilding the game with graphics, it would work with multiplayer because they use a lot of the same textures. Hopefully he's right! CE's multiplayer shines on LAN.

I'm pretty sure it's similar to how ODST was.

Halo 3: ODST
-New campaign with altered gameplay
-Full Halo 3 multiplayer experience

Halo CEA
-CE campaign remade with classic gameplay
-Full Halo Reach multiplayer experience

Think of it like that.

Frog blast the ventcore!

This is exactly what I was wondering. They said they built on Reach's multiplayer because Halo 1 was never built for onlne and it would lag like a -blam!-. But Halo 1 always had local and splitscreen multiplayer, so why not anniverssary?

I kind of doubt it though since 343 seem stupid to me already, but it would be AMAZING to have.

Yes to the first, no the the second. CEA only comes with the 7 multiplayer maps. It doesn't include the Noble or Defiant DLC, or the original stock maps. Lame, no?

Actually I heard from halopedian that it was going to have the full reach experience and 6 updated classic maps and 1 new firefight map that may feature the flood.

There's nothing in the article that states CEA will have the entire Reach multiplayer experience.

Will we keep our Reach ranks then?

There's no difference between CEA multiplayer and Reach. It's the exact same thing, so yes.

TSB Gaming - Take A Seat B****!!!! Message TSB VeNomMm if you are interested in joining our clan TSB

tacticalKillJoy your wrong this is actually how it's going to work when you buy halo CE Anniversary it will only have one disc with only campaign on it. And the game will come with a code for you to download the 7 maps to your halo reach game so the 7 maps are NOT On the anniversary disc the 7 maps are on the Halo Reach disc

Yes and no...

The seven maps ARE on the CEA disc. Players will not need Halo Reach to play online, however they will be limited to those seven maps and the playlists they are included in.

CEA also comes with a download code for the maps so players with Halo Reach can enjoy the full matchmaking experience including the new maps and playlists.

Atleast research a little before calling people out on things that aren't even wrong.

So i can keep all my purchased armor parts etc.? Cool ^^
Though it would be great if Halo CEA also adds some more
armor parts. I hope we finally get the Mark IV armor and maybe even the one from Halo 4 teaser trailer ^^

Yes to keeping everything, maybe to new armor. They had planned to release more armor but I had heard they couldn't get it to work. We'll know by november =/

Please explain how 343i is stupid. In my opinion they've done everything they possibly could.

No. Halo Anniversary all ships on one disc. The map download enables you to play the Anniversary maps from Reach.
