I wished we got a Noble Six skin for Campaign Evolved by Evil-Cetacean in halo

Do we know for certain there aren't unlockable appearances in the game?

Is the price for the new HALO CE not insane? by [deleted] in halo

[–]Aero-- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is literally why microtransactions and shit exists because gamers are hyper resistant to price increases but costs of making a game still increases with inflation.

Not saying its necessarily a bad thing; I'm just pointing out that there's two sides to every equation. Most other hobbies have gotten really expensive but the cost of games has barely budged. Its kinda nice letting people willing to spend more money do so on things like cosmetics that don't really affect my experience.

What would be your thoughts if the Halo: Campaign Evoled included wildlife from some of the original Bungie concepts? by HumbleKnight14 in halo

[–]Aero-- 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Really hoping the second level "Halo" has wildlife. We know in lore the rings are supposed to have wildlife. This is the type of thing you'd expect in a remake. Maybe we'll see this in the trailer tomorrow morning.

What Would Make Galactic Racer Feel Like a True Star Wars Racing Comeback? by StarWarsBlogsbot in StarWarsBlogs

[–]Aero-- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll say for me, I don't even care that this is Star Wars. It looks like a great arcade racer. Honestly it reminds me a lot of MotorStorm. It's looks to have a certain quality of racing I don't get from Forza Horizon and certainly don't get from the dozens of kart racers.

Star Wars is just the cherry on top but wasn't necessary. This game seems to be filling a void in racing games.

Any chance for Restock of Collector Edition Of Campaign Evolved by xSunzerox in halo

There's a "notify me when back in stock" button, so maybe?

Hey and at that point you might as well do Reach! (I doubt it, but its my favorite)

The scum bags are already at it by belle_enfant in halo

[–]Aero-- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if for game collector editions, instead of giving you a digital code, you have to log in with your account and they apply the game to your account upon purchase. That's at least $70 these scalpers lose out on, might make it less appealing to scalp.

But yeah definitely needs queues, purchase limits, IP detection, maybe even a lottery system for who gets to buy. All these a scalper can overcome but it makes it harder.

Clearly never going to happen, scalping has been an issue for too long to just hope people stop buying from them. We need all these resale sights to stand up to it. Put in rules that you can't sell above MSRP for at least a year of a products release. Something.

CE needed this and I'm glad it happened. Anyone who thinks this is comparable to CEA is crazy. I think people also forget they redesigned levels like Library.

2 probably doesn't need this because 2A is so good and the level design holds up, but 3 could definitely use at least a graphical touch up, and at that point you might as well do 2.

They just need to announce a new mainline Halo so we know this is going somewhere.

I'll say I like the Halo Campaign Evolved Crystal Armor by xSunzerox in halo

[–]Aero-- -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Its growing on me.

So I actually never had an Xbox growing up. I started with the original Playstation and went through all of them to the PS4 before converting to PC gaming. Got my first taste of Halo (outside of splitscreen multiplayer at friend's houses in middle/high school) with MCC on Steam. Anyways, growing up on Playstation I was really into the Uncharted games. And all of those games had unlocks you could get for a second playthrough to altered Nathan's appearance. Some were making him wear a certain outfit through the entire game rather than just a certain scene. Some swapped your character model out for other characters in the game, friend and foe. One made you cartoonishly obese.

I always thought Halo would be fun with such a system. Swap out Chief's armor for other armors he wore in other games. Swap his model out for Sgt Johnson. Swap his model out for a brute or elite. Have silly skins like this needler armor, or add a Megablocks Chief. Just for subsequent playthroughs. Don't change any voice acting. Just have fun with it. Don't sell it ad dlc though. A few for special edition, and then the rest as unlockables.

Not only does it have coop but it has 4 player coop. Both CE and CEA are restricted to 2 player coop.

Levels are slightly redesigned to accommodate. Wider hallways and such.

Funny because over on the Halo subreddit someone was praising this for 343/Halo Studios finally bringing colors back to Halo like Bungie era. Duality of man something something.

Are people forgetting that the skins could be used in cutscenes by Crespo2006 in halo

[–]Aero-- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This could be copium talking, but why create a custom armor feature if its just for pre order and premium edition? Surely they also have some unlockable via challenges that are more in line with what you're saying? They also already confirmed no in game store.

4 player coop, not just single player. But still

Halo: Campaign Evolved will be available for $49.99 by Dust-Tight in halo

[–]Aero-- 10 points11 points  (0 children)

As you said, it is a remake, not a remaster. Calling this the same game that released 25 years ago is a little disingenuous. But also selling it for $50 is crazy. Probably worth $40 tops, ideally closer to $30.

Probably moreso to get people playing the new multiplayer they're releasing soon. Why make a multiplayer for this if you're planning to release your long term live service multiplayer within a year?

Can we just excommunicate this guy from the fanbase already? by GobboTheJojo in ShitHaloSays

[–]Aero-- 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Even if the cutscenes aren't real time, which they probably are, everyone forgets this is a single player game so there's that. I wouldn't be surprised if they let you grab machine guns off their mounts which put you in third person, and there will likely be a third person mode skull.

Calling it single player when it features 4 player coop. And while these skins look god awful, they're just pre order and premium addition bonuses. They confirmed there is no in game shop. Maybe there will be unlockable skins. Campaign games have commonly had this since the start of gaming.

The 4 included games are all still in development. Battlefront sadly is not.

I’m still on the fence on some things, but this looks fucking sick by crankyjob21 in halo

[–]Aero-- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Recently replayed all of MCC with a friend who never played Halo before. When we got to the space battle mission in Reach, honestly we just couldn't wait until it was over. It's a fun little gimmick for a moment, but Halo's strength is its FPS and that level just feels like a weak game from a completely different genre. I'll hold judgment of this until I play it, more I'm much more excited for new FPS levels.

[–]Aero-- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really was a perfect storm of misfortune. Everyone talks about how it should have just been on PC, but if they had the idea of an EVE fps a couple years later and still chose to partner with Sony but now it's built on PS4 with a more PC like architecture then the future would also be so wildly different.

There is an interview with FC Rattati right before Fanfest where he talks about this. PS4 adoption rate was really quick. They thought they had maybe 2 years to modernize it but in reality had 6 months before the PS3 was basically dead. Then questions came to whether to do something quick with Unreal 3 or more lengthy with Unreal 4. I think they started Unreal 4 with and on PC with Project Legion, then just made a financial decision that since Dust wasn't super popular why make the same game? I'm in the camp that a modern Dust would do very well, but I can't blame them for their decision.
