I liked the "For a brick, it sold pretty damn good!" or whatever it was.

Halo: The Master Chief Collection |OT2| Wake me when it's working.



Seriously though, it's working pretty well now. Not perfectly, but the team balancing and matchmaking times are pretty reasonable now. Having to matchmake after every game is pretty annoying, some general stability problems still exist (5v5 in a 4v4 playlist, freezing, getting booted from game loading screens, etc.) But I've had a lot of fun with it today. It finally feels like Halo.

I don't think shitting on devs is really approved, even though it's a joke. I remember I made the "Best Bungie game this year" one and it never got made :(

i dont even think that one is even really mean spirited at all, just a funny little twist of the name. it's not like uneven teams were some imaginary fable before 343 happened.

I played SWAT today. I got Halo 4 on the pit remake.

DMR like a boss! :)

I had three instances of triple kills, running around, didn't experience lag, even match. Oh baby baby.

My buddy and I are going to swat it up hard tonight. So stoked. :D

Edit : Halo MCC OT2| At least it's not Superman N64

I'm leaning towards not possible.

It was definitely not possible in the original Halo 3, but seeing as you don't even have the original armor functionality in the MCC, I could just see them adding a flag where the byte that determines your model is just forced to Spartan in certain playlists in-memory.

H2A SWAT has Spartans and Elites. Elites arent really any harder to headshot so it kind of seems like a non issue.

I don't think elites are the reason Halo 3 is left out of the swat playlist. I think it's probably more related to the fact that Halo 2,4, and CE are better suited for the play type.

They're technically not harder to shoot in Halo 3 either, but the player model makes people shoot at them incorrectly because people think their lowered head means they can't be shot from the back, when you can still kill an elite from the back the same way you can a spartan.

It was a whole controversy back in Halo 3's prime, and 90% of SWAT was Elites :lol

That's cool lol. I never got to play halo 1-3 (only played reach and 4, I only got an Xbox 360 after owning a PS3 for a few years).
