Is it me or does Johnson look like your man Steve Harvey in this remake

Loved Halo 5 MP but the faithful hated it and the campaign as you say, was ass. Not getting into a sprint/ADS debate again but that's what kids want these days.

But yeah be nice if they came up with a way to modernise the game with idea's they haven't cribbed off someone else. The game was famous for it's AI and how fun it was at the time they should start there IMO.

modernising Halo without sprint and without ADS is so easy imo.

the ACTUAL THING that needs modernisation and 343i needs to look at what other shooters do is the one thing 343 refuses to actually modernise... and that's the gunplay and the aiming controls.

the gunplay is still stuck at relying on a ridiculous amount of aim assist and bullet magentism, and the aiming on controller still feels like you're playing a game from 2002.

the max turn speed in Infinite is so insanely slow that you can't even intuitively make use of its mechanics.
like the ability to use the Repulsor to do a high jump. in order to do that you have to aim to the ground, jump and trigger the Repulsor. doing that on controller feels so fucking awful, because it takes 5 business days until your slow ass aim speed allows you to adjust your aim far enough downwards to actually do that.

then there's the fucking singular reaction curve that is the fucking worst. while also forcing aim acceleration on at all times.

the entire feel of aiming and shooting in Halo Infinite feels so clunky and behind the times, yet they are scared to not have ADS, sprint and clamber because "we need to be modern"

and that mismatch imo shows very clearly that noone at that studio actually wants to modernise halo. all they do is parade the corpse of Halo around, while slapping different costumes on it to see if something sticks.

I'd rather put ice picks in my balls than listen to Act Maam. Biggest grifter on Youtube.

LMAO not even close.

Unless it's made with cute babies' blood, I don't give a fuck. The end result is pretty much the only thing that matters here.

Code Veronica will be using assets from requiem does that mean it's not a new game?

Exactly!

 

[DeepEnigma]

I can already tell by the thumbnail that the retard is retarded.

Saved me a click.

 

[Draugoth]

It's a lazy remake in my opinion. 59.99 for basically the same game from 2001 with no multiplayer is bananas. They should have given us 6-10 new levels.

same here... that guy is soooo smug and clueless

 

[Edgelord79]

Definitely not remarstered either that's for sure

YouTubers are engagement junkies, they do everything they can make any dumb face in order to get clicks.

 

[MiguelItUp]

Another thread with no description, just an embedded "Youtuber / content creator / influencer" video that's clearly begging for clicks and attention. Nah man, I'm good.

Why YouTubers are so fucking obsessed putting goofy ass face on the thumbnails? It's so fucking cringe.

Apparently it increases people's urge to click and watch? Lmao.

They're right (science), IQs are definitely in a decline.

 

[SeanyQuest]

All in all, this is better than anything those stupid bitches Bonnie and Kiki Wolfcuck ever produced. And its still somehow, even after all the changes....even without multiplayer, more enticing to Halo fans than any of the 343 titles.

This fucking guy is a douche, don't ever post his channel ever again.

What's all this bleating in here about resued assets in other remakes? The reason it's a problem is that the reused assets aren't accurate to the original game. Nobody would care if the assets still achieved the goal of bringing the original game to life rather than being a cheap copy.

The Act Man is right here. The assets are reused to the detriment of the original, the implementation of the Flood makes no sense (pure forms need a more developed Gravemind to occur), and Johnson sounds like (with the odd exception) he should be winking at the camera in the prequel missions.

Also Cortana looks like a horse.

I personally, never ever ever ever want to be reminded of a 343-made game ever again. There's a nostalgia about Reach but that game is complete trash too. At least it has "feeling" i guess. So seeing all those animations from 5, Infinite and Reach kinda blows. Like the way the elites move looks so....gay?

 

[xrnzaaas]

It's funny how youtubers pust 95% of the effort into the title and thumbnail and 5% into a solid explanation of their reasoning or the topic they're discussing. Clickbait is all that counts.

 

[DanielG165]

We're using Actman as a source now? Lol.

 

[hououinkyouma00]

I miss the old Act Man.

They're stiff like a docking cock.

Reach's Elites were modeled and animated to be imposing and chunky; something that doesn't work so well when ya just plop them on a slender model like Infinite's. Why they used Infinite's models instead making new ones I'll never know… money money money money

Something I hadn't noticed that Act Man pointed out was how fluid the CE sword swings were compared to Reach or 343's. It's crazy how many little details Bungie put in their old games (even Reach despite some of its shortcomings).

Reading from your own rule book I see

Can we not do zero effort OPs that are just a link to a semi-controversial video with no context, summary, or original thought to them? At least pose a discussion question or something resembling an original opinion.
