The newest video/screenshot I have seen showed some universal playlists and one per game. Like it had Team Slayer and Big Team Battle which features maps from all 4 games and then had a generic Halo 1 playlist, Halo 2 playlist, etc.I'm sure this has been confirmed or talked about but, there'll be playlists for each individual game, right? Like, I just want to play H3 MLG playlist so that'll be an option without having the choice of a H1/CTF, H4/TS, etc.
IIRC there'll be an unified playlist so I know that much.
There was an amazing map for CTF in H2 or H3 which was symmetrical, indoor, both bases were opposite each other with a lower area below... To get to the other base you had to either go down and up a ramp on the other side or walk all the way around the top where there were often battles in a hall way near a spawning beam rifle at the top of a grav lift (from memory).
With good team work you could throw the flag up to someone on the higher level as a shortcut... It's a brilliant map, fingers crossed it gets the makeover.
Sorry, I'm reliving some memories here.
We finally get proper halo MP back, it peaked with H2 and H3 in my opinion, the "equipment" in halo 3 was waaaay better than armour abilities.
That 60fps sanctuary footage is the most excited I've been after watching a gaming vid in at least 5 years
I definitely can't watch 60 fps streams. Motion sickness hits me pretty hard. I've never experienced it when I play, but not being in control is what makes videos impossible.
Have they talked in detail about Halo 1 multiplayer? Will it be 16:9? What HUD and sound effects? Original or the shit CEA ones to match the campaign.
Glad I'm not the only one to go a little "ugh" on the 60fps stream.
I'd have answered you if you'd been able to keep an insult out of the question. I'm holding firm to halfway decent manners.

Aherm. Mr. Stinkles. Can you please tell me how the Halo 1 MP will be handled? Will it feature the o.g. engine/graphics. Namely, can I be a savage again with the pistol? 3 shotting fools. Or, will it kick back to the anniversary engine where it's more or less H3?
Thank you kindly.
Kindly
Me too. It doesn't happen when I play but the "intent-lag" (I am not controlling the character /camera) makes me woozy after a while watching others play.
Halo CE will use original sound effects in mp.
Danke shoen.
So, any insight on the engine? On a scale of 1-10, if I pick up my XBO controller and start playing the o.g. Halo MP, how much will the gameplay feel like I've been transported to my buddies parents basement system linking?
"feels like halo"
What stream?
I have to explain it to my friends quite a bit so yeah this'll be interesting.Given the sheer amount of content and additional effort that is going into this, coupled with how confusing what all that is for your average consumer, I'm genuinely curious how this game is going to be marketed. Seems like a very difficult product to advertise without selling it short.

There's your advertisement, That's enough for me."feels like halo"

I'm going to channel my inner other forum guy here who was unnecessarily blunt.
Pressures on: Feels like halo is too ambiguous as the game changed from game to game. Feels like whattttt Halo?
I'm confused. You're asking about Halo 1, right? Why wouldn't Halo 1 multiplayer feel like Halo 1 multiplayer?I'm going to channel my inner other forum guy here who was unnecessarily blunt.

They were on map pickups, you still had to fight for map control/ get to them to use them.There's a lot of talk about AA in Reach and Halo 4 but how did people feel about the various equipment in Halo 3? Was it generally well-received? Do people like them?
Looking back now, I thought they were a great addition.

That was Halo Reach modified to mimic Halo 1. In the MCC we're getting the actual Halo 1 multiplayer.Because Halo 1 Anniversary did not.
If you're talking about MM, that was Reach MM, not Halo 1, so I don't see what the deal is. Its Halo 1 multiplayer on Xbox Live.Because Halo 1 Anniversary did not.

It's pretty amazing that saying that "IT'S EVERY MAINLINE HALO 1080p 60FPS DEDICATED SERVERS EVERY MAP EVERY GAMETYPE EVERY CAMPAIGN ALL FUNCTIONALITY RETAINED AND A FULL-SCALE HALO 2 REMAKE AND HALO 2 MULTIPLAYER BONUS SUITE" is still potentially underselling it.

I think he's trying to say that H1CEA single player didn't quite "feel right" so he's wondering if non-remastered multiplayer will be the same way.

I think you have me on ignore, but is the H2A announcer audio/medals place holder or final?
