Damned if we do, damned if we don't.

Maybe implement a toggle in the options? Turn button glitches/super jumps on or off?

 

[BigTnaples]

I dig this!

Want a ODST Remaster too!

And Reach. Reach please.

 

[Darkmakaimura]

Yep. There is no 360 version. That was Amazon.com mistake.

Good thing I placed my pre-order for the Xbox One version then.

 

[Opus Angelorum]

Stinkles, any reason ODST was omitted?

 

[jay23]

They gave us everything we asked for all maps and original halo 2 MP.

 

[SatansReverence]

Stinkles, any reason ODST was omitted?

It's the Master Chief collection.

There was no Master Chief in ODST.

 

[biosnake20]

I want to see more of the Halo 2 Anniversary, they didn't show much at the conference.

 

[Kibbles]

Damned if we do, damned if we don't.

You guys made the right call.

 

[Twin Tails]

Yep. There is no 360 version. That was Amazon.com mistake.

is this in game or CG?

There are three hidden links in the trailer which lead to this site.

Supposedly if you click on all three hidden links in the video you unlock something, it doesn't work for me so I dunno.

 

[dorkimoe]

so is there mp for every game 1-4? Thats going to fragment the shit out of the community..unless everyone is just in 2..which would be fine

 

[BigTnaples]

Maybe implement a toggle in the options? Turn button glitches/super jumps on or off?

That would segment the player base WAY too much.


Not viable.

 

[Kelsey]

Maybe implement a toggle in the options? Turn button glitches/super jumps on or off?

And further fracture the player base. No thank you.

 

[The Librarian]

I wonder if the achievements will be as fun as the Halo 1 Anni achievements.

 

[The Lamonster]

This has convinced me to buy an Xbox One. Seeing Ascension gameplay at E3 sealed the deal for me.

Good job 343 and Microsoft! Planning to get the bone on Nov. 10th!

Spoiler

or the 11th if there's a Halo bundle or branded console

 

[bastian]

is this in game or CG?

CG. Keep Blur Studios away from games.

 

[mrklaw]

100 multiplayer maps would have me concerned about player dilution. I hope they have good ways to find active maps easily.

 

[TacticalFox88]

How does Halo 3 look?

That's what I wanna know

 

[BigTnaples]

It's the Master Chief collection.

There was no Master Chief in ODST.

Well, technically MC was in ODST and Reach, albeit briefly.

 

[mcrommert]

Hopefully they use the assets of the Pc version of halo 1 for the multiplayer...much better looking than the original xbox assets

 

[Bungie's]

Yeah..

I think they should probably rethink the glitches.

Some of the maps also had explotiable elements to them that should probably be corrected.

I like the idea of them being a toggle.. but I have no idea if that is even possible.

Not a dealbreaker for me though.

If my wife asks, she can find me on the 2v2 playlist for the next 5 years.

But that's what made Halo 2 so much fun. Rocket lunge 24/7 yo

 

[Falagard]

Stinkles, any reason ODST was omitted?

Probably logistics... the amount of work porting each engine, and the QA involved in this project must have been ridiculous. Adding another full game into the mix would have been crazy, though the Firefight mode in ODST is my favorite.

 

[RetroStu]

Halo 1-4 is not remastered. Only Halo 2 is remastered. Halo 1, 3, and 4 use the original engines. They just run 1080p. Which is still a big upgrade in my book.

No they are using the first Halo Anniversary as well, they said it in the collection trailer.

 

[Benjamin1981]

Frankie just sold a Xbone. Sooo hyped.

 

[bastian]

It's the Master Chief collection.

There was no Master Chief in ODST.

Technically he was in Reach.

 

[darthbob]

Stinkles, any reason ODST was omitted?

Perhaps because Master Chief isn't in the game?

 

[Future PhaZe]

Maybe implement a toggle in the options? Turn button glitches/super jumps on or off?

there is a glitchless halo 2 available

it's called halo 3

 

[Cse]

Any information on 4 player split screen?

 

[SatansReverence]

Well, technically MC was in ODST and Reach, albeit briefly.

I don't remember seeing him in ODST and wasn't it Linda in Reach?

On another important note, Halo 2. Which version is it? 1.0? 1.1? 1.5?

 

[Altered Juice]

i knew that lie about halo 2 anniversary not being announced this year from that frank dude was bullshit. but i am a bit confused....so can we play every halo multiplayer or is just halo 2's mp with all the maps

A friend of mine just started a petition to bring Halo 2 Anniversary to PC, so I thought I could share it here, in case someone may find it interesting:

Would you like that?

 

[GavinGT]

so is there mp for every game 1-4? Thats going to fragment the shit out of the community..unless everyone is just in 2..which would be fine

There are hoppers for each individual game, or a hopper that randomly throws you into any of the four games.

 

[BigTnaples]

How does Halo 3 look?

That's what I wanna know

Like this.

 

[The Librarian]

Well, technically MC was in ODST and Reach, albeit briefly.

My memory must be drawing a blank, but he doesn't appear in ODST. Sgt. Johnson does.

 

[PlumCantaloupe]

That is a hell of a lot of maps. I wonder how they will handle player fragmentation between so many maps and modes.

Perhaps they are just hoping this will sell so many XboxOne's it won't be an issue?

 

[Mdot]

Any gameplay screens on Waypoint? I'm at work and blocked from it.

 

[Darkmakaimura]

Never pre-ordered a game announced at E3 until today. I wonder how many have been placed already? Also, any way to travel 5 months into the future?

 

[dorkimoe]

There are hoppers for each individual game, or a hopper that randomly throws you into any of the four games.

woah.. ok day 1 sign me back up for halo guys

 

[DesertFox]

So to clarify, all Halo 2 MP maps have reworked graphics, plus there are 6 remained maps running in a native Xbox One engine?

Please tell me not only 6 maps have updated graphics and the rest are relegated to 2004 mode...

 

[GhaleonEB]

Just taking a break to catch up on the news, but learning the glitches are in makes me a lot less sad I'll miss out on it. As Frankie said, there was no easy way out of it, but I was on the "damned if we don't" side of things.

 

[Palette Swap]

So, the H3 and 4 campaigns use all the vanilla assets but are rendered at 1080p (and targeting 60fps) ?

Pull a bundle come November and I'll probably get myself a Halo box lol.

 

[Unstable]

That would segment the player base WAY too much.


Not viable.

And further fracture the player base. No thank you.

Sorry, I should have been more clear. I was talking about custom game options. Just if you want them on/off with friends.

 

[Grinchy]

This is a pretty insane package. I can't believe they're only charging $60 for this.

 

[The Lamonster]

totally getting this digital so I don't wear out the disc drive.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

And Reach. Reach please.

I think a Halo Universe Collection with ODST, Halo Wars and Reach would be pretty awesome.

EDIT: It would be a good one to release between 5 and 6 too.

Not us. Looks shady.

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

Where's the campaign footage?

 

[VanquishUK]

Damned if we do, damned if we don't.

Either way, thank you guys!

 

[E92 M3]

Damned if we do, damned if we don't.

It's good kept them in - it was all part of the charm!

I wonder if the achievements will be as fun as the Halo 1 Anni achievements.

Hopefully no annoying/grindy multiplayer achievement. *Remembers everyone asking to boost achievements in Halo 3*.

 

[Outlaw Torn]

Some comparisons for Halo 2 were posted on Waypoint. More in the link.

[Danny 117]

My memory must be drawing a blank, but he doesn't appear in ODST. Sgt. Johnson does.

If we want to be technical he's in the opening cut scene aboard the in amber clad as it follows reget through slipspace . Never actually appears though so it would be silly to include odst
