Agreed. And I actually really like Destiny too. But, just nothing compares to Halo in my opinion. The core gameplay is just unmatched in my opinion. Also, I've loved every single Halo including 4 and Reach.

Yeah TU Reach has 80% bloom, melees after shots can kill instead of just making the guy one shot, and a couple other things. There were almost 15K people on when I got on last night, IDK how true that 70k thing was but thats still way more than H3.
I wish they would have done the same thing with H3; make it free and taken the DLC requirements off of a lot of the playlists or just make the maps free. No reason to keep trying to make money off a 7 year old game.
I'd still rather play H3 even with all the cheating and the nonsense thats going on right now. Still too many things about Reach and 4 that annoy

List of maps that will be included in the Team Slayer playlist at launch. Rumor has it that the initial launch will contain more Cross Game playlists as opposed to Game Specific Playlists (as in a H2 only Playlist, H3 only, etc etc etc). I can see why they'd start off that way, its one of the main things they were pushing, but cross game playlists arent going to be good for anyone who hasnt played all the games.
I'm hoping each game has its own generic Team Slayer, Team Doubles, Big Team playlist, OBJ, FFA, and hopefully a Team Hardcore one at launch and then eventually bring in things like Snipers and SWAT later in that rotational playlist spot.
I never played CE with people like that cause no XBL and what not, and I'd rather deal with the cesspool that is H4 multiplayer as little as possible, even though I doubt anyone would ever vote for a H4 map in the pregame lobby.
They'll never be able to please everybody with the playlists though, if they tried they would have to make like 50 playlists

Man I can't wait!!!
Halo 1 online we had to go through XB Connect I think it was called. Hook the Xbox up to the computer or something, too long ago to remember exactly lol but the joy of playing against people online was crazy.

Yeah thats what it was called. Never tried it myself, but I heard it was hit or miss in terms of how good the connection was.

I don't know about combining all of the games in one playlist.
None of them play the same so to say.
Well speaking from H2 to H3.
In H2 where you shoot at with your reticle is where the bullets register whereas with H3 you have to lead your shots.
I thought Reach was a good game just the bloom and armor abilities made it :x
I hope they remove running or sprint or whatever it's called because it's easy for someone to get away if they're one shot.
I hated that crap in Reach and H4.
Doubt they'll do so for H5 though.
Man I hope there is DLC for this where they remake more maps and then eventually do H3.
Even though many swear by H2 I think H3 is where it's at and where I will spend most of my time playing.
I'm just wondering how it will feel with a XB1 controller now and if there is still going to be modding and cheating going on.

And there in lies the problem with the mixed bag playlists, that one difference makes both games play completely different, then you add CE to the mix where the BR doesnt even exist and you die in three pistol shots.
Sprint in Halo needs to die and never come back.
It took me a while to get used to leading my shots too, when I first started playing H3 I would never lead regardless of distance.
Nah Putting in Work is right. H2 had hitscan so where ever you shot the bullet connected instantly whereas most guns in Halo 3 were projectile based so you were supposed to lead your shot if you were shooting from far away. The closest thing to it in H3 was the Laser.
For the record Projectile>Hitscan in the amount of skill it takes IMO, hitscan is madness and it was one of my main issues with Reach. The DMR was hitscan and had the range of the sniper, it made map movement a chore.
Hitscan also makes everyone a God with snipe. It was way too easy to use in H2 and Reach.
In Halo 2 I didnt mind it because it was all I knew, but once H3 came out and I started to feel the difference I much preferred projectile shooting. If H3 didnt have all those coding issues that cause bullets to just flat out disappear when you shoot them it would be flawless
Now that Halo is going to have dedicated servers as opposed to P2P I hope they go with a projectile BR in Halo 5
Yeah they still have those.

No, you did need to lead online in halo 2. That's not even debatable. Why do you think people battled for host?

Bruh, I played the game till it was taken down. Don't lead with the BR and snipe online without host and it'll miss once they're at a distance. People forced host for this reason.
Sweep sniping is a good example of taking advantage of the system online. Lead, shoot, and literally almost pull the bullet across the head

I never got to play H2 online, but I remember when H3 came out I was watching a MLG match and they were talking about the leading the shots part and other differences.
They reason they were mentioning it was because the developers themselves said they made that change for distance shooting and mostly because they were talking about Final Boss most noteably Walshy falling from grace due to the changes they made with leading your shots from H2 to H3 and other button glitches that made Walshy the dominant H2 player but he was buns in H3.

In h2 (online of course) once you reach a certain distance if you don't lead you'll never hit, zoomed in on not IF you don't have host. If you did have host you DID have to lead but definately not to the amount you would have to if not. In H3 you had to lead no matter what to a certain degree. Aiming in H3 is harder than h2 for sure but H2 wasn't a walk in the park either. The auto aim (slowing down the radical when on a target) happens much more drastic on H2 which also makes the aiming easier

Dave wasn't nearly the player people made him out to be. He was very good in CE in terms of his skill so he played with the best and master calling out weapon times controlling spawns etc.. in 2005 when addy became commonly used it became a matter of time for people to catch up to their skill and learn the teamwork needed. Basically Dave was ahead of the curve in ce and was still a good player in h2 but he was being caught up to, the ogres were the real reason FB was so dominant. and your right he sucks at halo 3

Are those halo ce screen shots from the classic mode or remastered mode ?
Those pics are from the multiplayer of combat evolved. Its not going to have "anniversary graphics". The single player will look better, but the multi for CE and Halo 2 ( not anniversary 2) will look bad
