To me its a slower UT BUT if they put in 4 player splitscreen and offline co-op I will buy it.
Its always fun with friends.

I don't know what is up with people in this thread. Halo franchise is one of the best out there. Halo 2 multiplayer is in my top 5 games. The game has a good story worth playing through, and the gun play is better than most shooters out there.
Id rather have this than 100 Half life 3s.

it's not about if there is a demand for halo on pc. it is one of the big, big system sellers for the xbox. it has to be exclusive.
Comment has been collapsed.
Timed exclusive maybe. I'd say most people who have a decent enough PC won't get an XONE until the price drops extremely anyways. If it stays console exclusive for a year then comes to PC that'd be great. Also, if MS was smart they'd make the collection one of the first DX12 ports and only release DX12 to Win 8.1 and beyond to also capitalize on pushing software. It's kind of shitty, but Halo 2 Vista tells me that'd be the corporate plan.

Yup, if they are smart they will do exactly what killed halo 2 on pc....

Only if there is a Master Race Chief mode when all the soldiers on your team are dressed as Nazi's and you are Hitler in the Chiefs suit and the aliens are the allies.
I can be the last boss, kicker will be that I have infinite HP and am unstoppable and kill you and take over Germany and start my own army called the Hillers which plan is to eradicate all male species.

Sorry, I meant HALO: CE as a standalone game. My point is, I don't want to pay for four games & only ever play one of them.
I found Halo 2, 3 & 4 to be terrible. The moment Bungie decided to make the vehicles destructible was the moment, in my eyes, I found the series to be dead. After I finished the campaign, all I did was grenade jump vehicles to places where weren't originally allowed to go. To me, that was more fun than the Halo series could've ever offered. So many hours wasted doing that with friends. Worth it.

Personally liked 2 best, liked the way the alien/human combination was pulled off, hated 3, not sure why, have no played 4, 1 was alright imo...nothing special.

Is there no way to turn destruction off in custom game types?

HALO is one of most frustrating games i've ever played And i don't understand What exactly people love about this series???

"Not sure how honestly, controls are fine and it has many different difficulty modes"
LOL so its great game then cuz its fine? i like the story but gameplay is just the same...
halo 1: Great start for FPS on consoles i get it + INTRODUCED T-BAG
halo 2 : garbage Super boring campaign just run and gun same weapons same enemies
halo 3: added a few weapons some new location new aliens same everything
halo odst :awful,waste of money,power,time,everything was the same
HAlo reach : awesome story new abilities great MP,level editor,fantastic music and ending (best halo game IMO)
halo 4: very short campaign everything is somehow new but a COD rip-off
what i'm saying is halo is not a "WOW" " MUST PLAY" game but its still attract people attention thanks to Microsoft for the INSANE advertisements on this series
more than 90% of halo fans are brainwashed by the ads they're like "HALO IS EXTRAORDINARY" but they cant explain why.....

The only Halo game that I thought was amazing was Reach. Too bad Master Chief isn't in that one.
Halo Wars was pretty good too, but that's about it. Again, no Master Chief there.

I was "campaigning" left and right for the PC release of Dark Souls, but I am kind of... completely and totally indifferent about this one. Based on my - limited, I admit - experience with Halos, I find them to be bland, unexciting, slow games with silly design elements and not very enjoyable gunplay. I just don't know how good they would be on PC, being FPS games designed solely for gamepad... Sure, maybe I would look at them if they were released on Steam, but I'm not looking forward to that possibility, to be honest.

We are not console gamers. Having said that, They will have to change some things.
First AIM. You know is stupid when you shoot from the hip, empty the entire clip firing everywhere except where you want and you have to finish the opponent with a bitchslap. The console community was so happy about this game because they didnt had to aim at all, just spray and pray. Maybe get a kill or 2 with melee if the ping was good.
It is also damm frustrating to throw a grenade when you are trying to aim.
Another thing they have to fix, 'RUN'. Sometimes you are in the middle of nowhere without a vehicle, some maps were actually big so yes, its needed.
If they dont change the aim, at least to let you use a shield and a sword, you are ending it melee anyways, might as well take a weapon that can actually hit something.

I don't think you've played it, have you? I would assume you haven't since you say "we are not console gamers", whoever we is anyways.
Comment has been collapsed.
I did, was tossing nades like a boss trying to aim.
Pc gamers of course. ;)
Its a fun game, im not saying it isnt, its just that it was created specifically for consoles. Slow moving targets, so you can actually kill them without aiming assist, no need to aim for the same reason (though they added some weapons on halo 2, which no one on pc played since it was vista only). Quite some health, or half the shots wasted, dont know there.
You could run in DOOM, that is one of the oldest fps game. Halo is a fun game, but the pace is way below the standards of pc gaming.

Just because there is no ADS doesn't mean you don't have to aim. And just because you have a PC doesn't mean you can't have a console.
Comment has been collapsed.
... Dude, get CE, use the basic rifle. aim some one at mid distance and empty the clip. Thats what i mean, it has deliberately low accuracy so it can hit if you dont have it dead centered, or just close to the center but not quite in the area, making it friendly for console users. The Slow movement and the no run/prone is for the same reason.
Yet again. "WE" Stand for pc gamers only. You are not on the list? Well, you are not part of the "WE" i talked about. But "WE" are many.
The fact is the same, Halo was made for consoles, it was fun, it is still fun as there is still players in servers, yet is not on par with FPC that were actually meant to play on computers.

I dunno why you are so elisist as I believe we are actually gamers and not just PC gamers. And I still don't know what you mean by basic rifle as you can actually aim in with the rifle.
Comment has been collapsed.
Not an elitists at all. I just know how to differentiate a game created for a console and one that wasnt.
"Just because there is no ADS doesn't mean you don't have to aim." Can you or cant you?
of COURSE you have to put the damm sight right in the middle. but the basic rifle has low accuracy ON purpose so you can hit even if you didnt/cant quite aimed to the middle, that is because is SLOWER to aim on a controller. In other games where you actually aim, the dead center is smaller thus the aim aid was implemented.
All im saying is that a slow paced CQC game like halo fits very well on consoles, not very well when you can actually aim properly with a mouse and keyboard where a 1/2 shot on the head/upper body is lights out.
Comment has been collapsed.
I realised when you said you have played it, you mean once. It's clear you did not understand the controls "tossing nades like a boss trying to aim". You also have no clue on the various weapons in the game that do allow you to aim, such as this basic rifle you are talking about. I would assume the rifle you are talking about is the battle rifle which in fact does have a scope which is probably why you had a hard time shooting from a distance.
So all in all, you seem to know a lot about a game you've played 5 minutes at most. I'm done here.

Someone started this not too long ago, and it would be nice to finish the fight on PC. Many were disappointed back in 2007 when Halo 3 wasn't coming to PC. This could change that. As stated by an interview with 343 and heard in this podcast, there are definitely chances it could come to PC, but Microsoft still might be skeptical. Let's see if we can show that PC gamers do want Halo!
Also, no comments about how "Halo is bad and for console plebs" or something.
PC Gamer agrees it should be on PC too. "I'm not even convinced that it'd eat into Xbox One sales that much—PC gamers aren't going to buy a new console to play some remastered shooters, but they might pick them up on Steam."
EDIT: Thanks to DillonMabry, who informed me about this website, is that there is a place that will communicate more directly with Microsoft.
You can vote to get it on PC here.
There is also a Change.org petition running here aswell.
EDIT 2: Want the Master Chief Collection on PC? There's actually a way we can do it.
We need to show 343 Industries that there is demand for it on PC, just like we did with From Software. If hundreds of thousands of people send them requests for it, we can obtain it.
We have started a campaign on twitter with the hashtags #HaloForPC and #Halo4PC. If we all tweet it to 343i execs, we may get their attention.
Their twitter accounts are @Halo @Brav @bsangel and @franklez. Help spread the word and help us get their attention!
