Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

Mmm...where have you found that picture?
Anyway, you might be interested in reading this.


Interesting read. I loved the troll that came in briefly a third of the way down the second page, got owned, and left. :P

Yes, I AM just that awesome.

That's probably just some indev testing. If you look at the picture the AR is the one from the Pre-Alpha version shown at E3 and in the first Campaign demo.

Because they were developing the game when it was being shot. The fact that it's the Pre-Alpha version doesn't make a difference. The fact that it's being ran in an executable outside of a development tool on the PC is what matters.

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.

You're 100% certain it's not going to happen? Because Matthew Karch, the CEO of Saber Interactive, the guys who are actually developing this remake, said that he wouldn't be surprised to see a PC version later on.

So I'm kinda wondering how you know more about the game's future than the CEO of the company developing H:A.

you got me there, my only reason is a strong gut feeling

Matthew Karch, the CEO of Saber Interactive, the guys who are actually developing this remake, said that he wouldn't be surprised to see a PC version later on. if they use C.E's engine for multiplayer but with better graphics like in the CEA campaign then It would be good IMO but with reaches multiplayer... nah! till this day that game has endless complaints about bloom, armour locking, weapons...

So I'm kinda wondering how you know more about the game's future than the CEO of the company developing H:A.like I said before, just one of those moments when you just know the answer to something before it happens, know what I mean?

It might be that they'll release it later on for the PC with the original Halo multiplayer updated like it is for the Campaign as well. First thing they'd have to do is wait a bit so that there wouldn't be as much of a lash back from Xbox fans due to us getting the true Halo: Combat Evolved Multiplayer when they got a map pack.

Another thing I believe they might do (Due to something that I'm not willing to point out, but the people in the know will know what I'm talking about) is adjust the engine some for greater modding capabilities. A 2.0 version of the original engine if you will. It would also include a better netcode. *thumbs up* Of course, that's all speculation.

so... the graphics engine... is there a way to tear it off the 360 version and put it on the pc version? it should already be configured for the game, so all that is necessary is the engine right? i'm not the most knowledgeable in this kind of stuff.

No. I thought that would work too, but it won't.

Think of it this way:

The PC has its own operating system. (Windows or... Mac... ewww...)

The Xbox has its own operating system. (Its probably just called Xbox)

CEA is coded for the Xbox's operating system. If you wanted it on the PC then you would have recode just about everything.

Copy and paste doesn't work well in this situation.

the original xbox ran a brand of GNU right? so we have to figure out the OS, than make a program or edit the engine to work with XP or 7 or whatever, right?

I don't know, but either way we need to find an asian kid to do it. I don't think anyone on this forum could do it.

The graphics engine that is used in CEA is compatible with the PC.

This is one of the config files found in Halo: Anniversary files.

Does anything look suspicious to you?

EDIT: Oh damn, I guess I forgot that Saber engine is multiplatform. :(

I doubt it. Although if it did, it would be nice to the PC gamers out there.
