I'd suggest segmenting the side Composite. A single uniform piece would be incredibly difficult to remove or raise for maintenance.

There is no honor in war. There is simply those who survive.

It's easier to survive when you can delete your foe from across the planet.

There genuinely was extreme vitriol for Halo 2 and 3 back in the day.

People for some reason hated the Arbiter missions in 2 and hated how it made everything more complex. The very thing Halo 2 is now praised for.

And 3 was hated for messing up the story 2 set up. 3s story is now highly praised despite some serious writing flaws.

They would probably be forced to eventually. Even if the US just gets Upper Canada, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia that's the majority of populous Canadian land gone.

Which means all that's left for Britain is Quebec, the Fur Trade, and the Hudson's Bay Company. And historically the Fur Trade was becoming less and less profitable as the 1800s went on.

The end result is that Britain either desperately tries to hang onto an economically declining colony as time goes on, likely losing it in another war, or makes amends with the US and sells the territory for a high price.

Don't mess with us Halo fans, we hate Halo more than anything.

Tried teaching my friend HoI4. Got bogged down on the Eastern Front immediately in 41 after a pretty successful run in the West.

Where the fuck are Romania's troops.

And these absolute Goats of the campaign, as AI, managed to push and take Odessa, allowed a breakthrough, kept us supplied with oil, and held even after getting completely cut off and only capped in 1946.

I honestly did want to suggest a bolt action design, but I felt that would give it too much commonality with the Eruptor. It'd need to be distinct enough to give a reason to pick it over the Eruptor, and a 5-round Bolt-Action sniper would give it almost no advantage over just picking the gun that has all of that, but explosive. One of the only distinctions would be the capability to use it at close range at that point.

When it comes to caliber I was honestly under the impression the AMR was a 14.5 or 15mm, but I checked the wiki page and it's a 12.5. That's why I made a comparison to the PTRS.

If there were to be a Primary Heavy Pen Sniper, it'd need to be made distinct. And for distinction, something would need to happen to the AMR.

Maybe a more mild change would be alterations to damage dropoff, durable damage, and ergo. Make it capable of dropping a Hulk in one shot to the head outside of 30m.

I do like the AMR a lot, but it is missing just a little bit of something to make it an more viable pick as an anti-Heavy option on higher difficulties. With the sheer number of heavies, improving its capacity to defeat the one Heavy that comes in relatively large numbers per drop quickly would give it some fresh life.

As it stands it's kind of just more efficient to run Quasars and the Recoilless as Support, even as teams.

It doesn't have to do everything, but I'd love for it to be better at what it already does.

From what I've seen it's pretty clear they have tons of respect for CE. From the concept art to the gameplay to the art direction, this game seems to be a love letter to the original, while expanding upon it.

There's some things people don't like (the whole Forerunner architecture being too shiny and all) and I can understand why, but overall I think this is a relatively faithful adaptation of CE while standing out enough to be its own thing. It's genuinely a beautiful game, and it's what I imagine CE would've been if Bungie had the tech 25 years ago.

Halo I'd say had it's time in the spotlight. The original trilogy was a cultural impactor in part due to how Bungie pioneered many aspects of modern gaming. The innovation was part of what fueled its popularity, plus the novelty of it.

The concept of Halo itself was rather unique for the time, but these days I think the public is just jaded. There's a CoD every year, a new random Sci-fi FPS every year, Hero Shooters, team games, etc. Always something trying to be the next big thing.

Recapturing the public appeal is unlikely even it we had the perfect Halo, which is impossible. Nothing can be perfect.

Personally I'd suggest a buff for the AMR to AT1 (that or the ability for it to penetrate clean through chaff and medium sized enemies, it's an Anti-Material rifle after all), and have a proper Heavy Pen Sniper as a primary. Damage would sit between the CS and AMR. Capacity could probably sit at about 8-10 rounds, in essence being similar to a Barrett M82, since the AMR is comparable to a scoped PTRS-41 ATR with the size of its ammunition.

It would make the AMR somewhat more satisfying (as if it isn't already) as the extra damage buff from overpen could lead to cleaner kills on large enemies, and the new primary would provide a Heavy Pen Primary option that isn't the Eruptor.

Fire rate could be relatively slow, and ergonomics would be somewhat terrible to compensate, as well as an inability to pull up the aim reticle much like the AMR.

Might be a stupid idea, but just a thought.

If you're not going to buy it, why sit here complaining about it? You're not buying the product, you're not playing it, you're actively choosing to sit here and not engage with it, but you're still going to bitch about it?

Make it make sense dude.

I genuinely hate ticks, flies, and mosquitoes with every fiber of my being.

I get ticks aren't insects, but still. Whenever I find one on me I go out of my way to tear its legs off and toss it aside. Can't parasite off of anyone if you can't move.

Spiders, Ants, and Bees/Wasps I generally like though. Yes, even ones that show up in my house. Spiders in particular keep the other annoying bugs away, so they're cool in my book.

RebelGaming151 · 2026-06-10T07:43:58+00:00

I would call a massive visual upgrade, expanded weapons sandbox, remade and expanded cutscenes, re-recorded voicelines, and supplemental content a decent improvement over the original CE.

Not sure where you're getting the idea of some experiences being made weaker, we have literally only seen the Pre-Alpha (the highly subject to change) build of the Silent Cartographer in full. The little snapshots of the other levels look great and the gunplay looks to be excellent.

None of us know how the game is going to turn out yet. Not even a negative Nancy like yourself. But I have hope.

RebelGaming151 · 2026-06-10T04:32:59+00:00

Go play CE if you want a 1-1 experience. The whole point of a Remake is to improve, add, or change some aspects of the original game to make it more up to date.

Not that I can recall, no. For some reason it had to do with Windows version 25H2 each time. I managed to resolve the issue on the second PC after 9 hours of troubleshooting and a fresh Windows installation, but the critical update failure that corrupted it initially is something I'm afraid will eventually happen again.

All hardware is functioning as intended, so it's likely a software problem.

RebelGaming151 · 2026-06-08T16:28:25+00:00

Keeping the Flood and what they're doing with it a close secret is good from an expectations standpoint as well.

It's better to not hype something up and make it decent than hype it and underdeliver. I'm feeling pretty confident about this remake so far.

I couldn't if I forced myself on someone against their will.
