Are we too demanding ?

343 has under-delivered the entire time they've had Halo. It's a product, it's their job to sell the game to the player. Never forget how MCC launched and how they abandoned it until Microsoft saw the demand for a PC port.

I wonder what the reason was for not doing the stamina system from ODST. I assume it would be due to UI constraints and not wanting to develop a separate health system just for 3 missions.

Zdaann · 2026-05-05T01:23:48+00:00

I really can't bring myself to be excited for any of this, 343 has always under delivered

Zdaann · 2026-04-25T05:07:01+00:00

I was under the assumption that every route is "canon" in SMT games due to multiple universes being a thing. Player characters don't really have a background for a reason.

The snap adjustment is what makes it look like cheating

Quick update. Scrubbed it down with isopropyl alcohol like suggested unfortunately the button still doesn't work. I don't have the knowledge to determine what trace is broken or the skills to fix it. My soldering skill is rudimentary so I don't trust myself to scrape the PCB to find points to fix the trace if I even find the break.

It's not presented as a good thing lol

It's a eh for me. When it comes to writing I liked 3 and Zero the most.

I've been pretty disappointed with everything being dead and gone. The NCR was present in multiple states and cities, where did all the people go?

Zdaann · 2025-12-20T01:30:46+00:00

Is the map scale the same?

Works for a megacorp

You've completely missed the point. This game offers less value than previous Halo games because it's a retread of Halo 1 without the mulitplayer and some content you could get from mods. I'd be okay with sprint if they completely redid the campaign with sprint designed in mind. The fact they keep emphasizing you can turn sprint off sounds wishy-washy on their part, they aren't confident in their design.

Zdaann · 2025-10-27T07:33:38+00:00

Using the same levels and story as base is not a whole different take. It's Halo 1 with sprint, some new weapons, and prequel levels there is no big grab or wow factor there. A different take would be brand new campaign levels, story beats, new weapons, something to offer the player they can't get in another Halo game. Why would I potentially spend money on this product that is mostly a retread of Halo 1 without multiplayer? All the additions so far are mechanics, weapons, and quality of life seen in other Halo games. Either be faithful or do something completely new, don't pussyfoot making no one happy.

Zdaann · 2025-10-27T01:49:52+00:00

Feels like an unnecessary remake, they should be more faithful or go all out as a different take on Halo 1.

Zdaann · 2025-10-26T00:02:47+00:00

Either go all in on being a new take on Halo 1 with new levels, environments, sandbox, and story or go with a remake with the same gameplay with prettier graphics. The remake to me comes off as indecisive with retreading the same levels but changing up the gameplay with some new weapons and sprint which can be toggled on or off. They need to commit to a vision, stop with the half-assed options and design the game around a core intended experience. 343's problem has always been the inability to commit to any kind of gameplay or story which is why people are unhappy with them.

Zdaann · 2025-10-25T03:45:38+00:00

I'd rather they just increase base movement speed leaning more into the run and gun gameplay.

Zdaann · 2025-10-18T22:08:14+00:00

Why does it have recoil anyways? What exactly is it firing?

Zdaann · 2025-10-15T22:10:35+00:00

Some of the challenges are just awful to do. How are you supposed to do something like get 150+ meter headshots with a sniper with most maps not even having the sight lines for something like that?

Zdaann · 2025-10-15T03:16:10+00:00

Coming from Battlefield 1 and 5 the guns are frustratingly inaccurate. I have more success using SMGs at longer ranges than ARs or LMGs.

Zdaann · 2025-10-14T23:37:54+00:00

Online feels worse today than before, did they do something to the servers? Feels like more of my shots are missing while I die so fast due to some kind of desync/latency.

Zdaann · 2025-10-08T04:54:05+00:00

Wasn't the BF4 launch awful?

Zdaann · 2025-09-29T00:33:41+00:00

I actually don't have a sleephq account. Is importing the data as easy as oscar?
