Wow, BC didn't think it'd happen. Hope Halo Reach gets added.

 

[shrek]

That was extremely underwhelming.

MCC: Finally out of Beta

via backwards compatibility with your old xbox 360 halo titles. halo 3 hasn't been this functional since 2007!

 

[ElzarTheBam]

Garden Warfare two!!!!!!!!!!!

Ford GT > all of E3

Forza 6: Now With Realisms

 

[RowdyReverb]

Wow, BC didn't think it'd happen. Hope Halo Reach gets added.

I'd wager it's one of the first games available.

Curious about how the backwards compatibility works. Some sort of dynarec approach, I imagine.

Also curious why they did it - I imagine it's too late to be a selling point, at least enough of one to justify the cost of development.

Think of all those XBLA games just sitting in the wrong store.

 

[Stinkles]

Sweet, lots of craziness going on




Edit: oh BTB showing now. 24 players, and AI? blegh

Doesn't replace btb. You will see impressions from show floor tomorrow. It's dope.

Why no chief gameplay?

 

[Overdoziz]

Singleplayer section didn't do much for me. Hopefully they're not going for the constant cinematic action like a lot of shooters do these days.

Is it as dope as pre-release MCC? I was told that was dope too.

Calm it down

 

[Poodlestrike]

Singleplayer was a bit disappointing, but they really seemed like they were hurting for time, so I'ma hold on until more in-depth impressions. Hopefully it's not as scripted as it looked.

I have no earthly idea what Warzone is. Like, it's got a lot of stuff, and there were these red hunters? But other than that, totally in the dark.

 

[belushy]

Btw if Fallout 4 can do mods, then I hope Halo 6 will be able to do pc forge mode.

 

[Nowise10]

Covenanty vehicles look different in Warzone/Halo 5. But Warzone looks like it could be amazing if it all works together.

Yeah I'm... not sure what to feel about it. I don't hate the idea.
Will have to see that on the floor gameplay. Still though. Bigger player count.

"The Xbox Preview program lets players play games while they're still in development. After the resounding success that was Halo: The Master Chief Collection..."

 

[Akai__]

Singleplayer section didn't do much for me. Hopefully they're not going for the constant cinematic action like a lot of shooters do these days.

That running scene really didn't impress me. Looked like some QTE part.

Also, the amount of enemies was not that high. Probably for demo reasons, but it worries me.

 

[Granadier]

"The Xbox Preview program lets players play games while they're still in development. After the resounding success that was Halo: The Master Chief Collection..."

I can't wait to beta test all those betas.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

Cuphead demo

Early Access 2016 bitches

 

[Omni]

I hope there's more Halo stuff.

Kinda underwhelming compared to everything else >.> The campaign snippet looked like something you'd find in a CoD game. And I don't mean that in a bad way... it was just kinda dull. Too scripted and linear. Halo has always been about those big expansive environments.

Well. At one point it was.

 

[Zeouterlimits]

Gut reaction (had to watch while still at work) :
The Halo 4 E3 2012 demo was a lot more exciting, no?

 

[bobs...onGaf]

HYPE


demolished lol

I'm not going to hunt for breadcrumb bits of information from the show floor and I feel like I would need to in order to find out what war zone is. I'm going to assume it's similar to titanfall and the random ai in that was a big negative for me so I'm really not excited

I'm hoping 343 does a proper reveal at some point and I hope my assumptions are wrong

Usually a very scripted COD demo opens the MS show.

Copy and paste Halo and voila.

Pity, in the montage there appears to be some interesting ideas and stuff happening, but hiding it behind that awful scripted nonsense is very disappointing. And no Chief?

Minimal expectations set for Halo 5 this E3 and I'm disappointed already.

 

[-Ryn]

So does the BR have al fire now or is that just a fast ass burst?

 

[King Leo]

For a sec I thought Warzone was some type of large-scale Firefight mode.

If you suck at MP you can sneak around the periphery fighting covenant and prometheans and helping fight bosses. And contribute to team scorer, level and weapons and vehicle unlocks

It IS a MOBA!

Hey that could be cool.

 

[dwells]

Wow, Rare is making Pimps at Sea.

Tell me more.

 

[GringoSuave89]

I love the concept of everything, but I need to see more. Having Halo to start did it a disservice. Not enough time to really show anything

 

[Jellycrackers]

Also, I wanted to see Master Chief

 

[Slightly Live]

Wow, Rare is making Pimps at Sea.

Dem ocean graphics. So salty.

 

[Captain Friendo]

This Holo-lens, wow we're living in the bloody future

 

[Zoso Achilles]

Holy shit holo lens. What. The. Fuck.

 

[GringoSuave89]

Holo lense is blowing my mind right now

 

[daedalius]

waaat Gears beta TODAY?!

 

[GringoSuave89]

waaat Gears beta TODAY?!

If possible, we should get some parties going

 

[dwells]

So that's three demos that have ended the same way - Halo, DOOM, and Gears of War have all had the same gameplay demo formula that ends with big bad guy attacking main character and cut to black.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

I swear these MS demos all got the same memo to be scripted linear and kinda boring

 

[belushy]

So jking about the 2nd Halo?

 

[FUNKNOWN iXi]

That "Tek Bow"/Grenade Launcher Covenant weapon looks really fun to use.

 

[Twin Tails]

No Halo on backwards list.
BOOO I want to play Reach


Halo 5 demo was really COD. MP want to play though.

 

[wesleyshark]

What a fantastic showcase. Holy crap. I'm floored.

 

[Forerunner]

Damn, that was hype!

 

[Captain Friendo]

I've been left quite thoroughly impressed.

So jking about the 2nd Halo?

Froze for me right as he was saying that, what did he say exactly?

 

[daedalius]

Eh, that's always how show demos have been for years.

Not saying its a good thing.

That "Tek Bow"/Grenade Launcher Covenant weapon looks really fun to use.

It kinda bounced like a conc rifle/brute shot too? Seems like a pretty awesome new weapon.

Can't say I'm surprised - would've been pretty embarrassing to have free backwards compatibility that works better than the $60 Master Chief Collection.
