Halo Custom Edition is still extremely fun to play. I find the custom story lines better than Reach's already.


The CMT maps are pretty awesome. And the Lumoria storyline is pretty good aswell.

RPSP was an extremely fun and amazing. The large scale battles were epic. Though it was long because of how many enemies there were. Wave after wave... then there's gotta be wraiths and elites with swords...


Haven't played RPSP yet. I'm downloading them now. They look pretty awesome though.

I say a pretty epic series of modded CE battles.

#1
Marines vs Hunters, Elites, Jackals, and Grunts
Cool things: When playing as a Hunter, your are basically a walking, automatic, fuel-rod artillary cannon

#2
SPARTAN vs Grunts vs Grunts
Cool Things: Grunts were using sniper rifles and pistols

#3
SPARTAN vs Sentinels vs Elites vs The Flood
Cool Things: Sentinels were equiped with dual assault rifles instead of sentinel beams, Elites had dual energy swords and active camo, When you killed a Flood it would just get back up in a few seconds, a hunting rifle-looking weapon that fired a rocket that moves insanely slow but when it impacts it causes a massive nuclear explosion consuming the magority of the map(Blood Gulch)

Yeah I have to warn you though, its like a 2 hour long campaign, especially since there are endless waves of enemies. But I don't want to spoil it for you, good luck and have fun!

Ah that sucks, I don't really know how to make my own maps, but if I did, using that info I could of made something like that of my own lol.

Have you tried maps like

Battle for Blood Gulch
Blood Gulch_AI
Elite Alpha Siege (though this map is extremely explosive, I suggest using the Dev mod tool with deathless player on)
Only the Smallest Survive (really laggy)
Land Wars

I can just put on infinite ammo, all weapons, deathless player and x5 fast forward in the dev mode ;) Alot easier...

I think the golden Age of Halo has ended.

It was great for Halo Ce, 2 and ended with Halo 3. By then, people wanted faster gameplay and Halo doesn't exactly offer that.


I think your definition of fast gameplay is backwards. CoD is a slow paced shooter, Halo is a frenzied action game. Generally, the longer the kill times, the faster the gameplay (look at Quake).

Yeah but cheats make it a lot less fun! Its basically skipping through the entire thing. I mean I guess it would be okay on the extremely long parts but I went through the entire thing no problem!

I think he meant faster kills.

Fun fact, the FMJ perk in CoD would actually make your rounds do LESS damage. So much for realism. Hollow-Points would do FAR more damage against "soft" targets.

Never knew that (well of course I wouldn't know that because I haven't owned a CoD game before, only borrowed one for a month). I thought it would actually do more damage. lol...

FMJ stands for Full Metal Jacket. This means the round is entirely encased in a fairly dense metal. When it hits the target, it will keep going, which means on "soft" targets it will just pass through you without doing too much damage. Hollow-Point rounds hit the target and "explode"(Or rather turn to shrapnel via expanding) tearing the insides apart.

Man it is a massive campaign... I have been playing for a while now and only got up to the ship at the damn part (In the elephant)... For some reason my gun doesn't work every now and then... I will play it later when i have enough time lol.

RC Clone is the anti-thesis of a lurker.

Sign the will. It's dead. Time to move on to the next big series.

I hope Bungie's next franchise doesn't fail.

But it would be friggin hilarious if it did, given the attitude they developed Reach with.

Halo CEA
Halo 4
Halo 5

I think there is still a lot of good gaming to come out of the Halo franchise. What I want to know is, "What is Bungie's next campaign in a major game going to be like?"

I just have worried for Halo 4. As does everyone.


Speak for yourself my friend.
I have no worries at all, and don't doubt 343i's capabilities in any way.

As for the OP: no, Halo is not dead. You can hardly call a series dead when there are 2 games on their way, another 2 on the horizon (H5/6), a book coming out this week and another one early next year, both followed by 3 more. When Waypoint is getting major updates, etc etc etc.
Halo is far from dead. Maybe not as immensely popular as it was around 2004-2007, but still a big name in the industry that is alive and kicking and will be for quite a while.

It seems pretty weird to think of it like that, CoD is faster in pretty much most ways - dying and killing is faster, running is faster, therefore battles are faster etc.

If you're talking about multi: yes, COD is faster. Thats also why tactics are completely absent from the game. You simply have no time for anything else than either run and gun, or hide and camp.
But if you're talking about campaign: Halo is faster. And thats all due to it being FAR more dynamic than CoD's (and 95% of all FPS games) shooting galleries. Halo has constant shifting battles, CoD has "sit in an "alley", shoot X mindless enemies and more on to next scripted event" gameplay which is very stale and slow.

Bungie CLEARLY said the Forerunners were all destroyed along with galactic life. But what does 343 do? Make a game about the Forerunners.


there is no proof it is about the forerunners
