  1. Great article! My favorite name for an achievement in the list is "Dankey Kang". But I will be going for the easter egg achievements on purpose. Don't know if i will ever get the LASO one. Just crazy. I am not really happy about the ones tied to the leaderboards. though they are beating a 'par' score or time, it still means that the time or score will change. So by the time I will get the game, it will (should) be more difficult for me to get them. I will have to use speed run tactics to get them done. So stoked about this though!
  2. IGN released the complete list of Achievments for the Master Chief Collection. It sure is long, but what do you expect with 4000 points? There are overall achievements as well as ones that are tied to specific games. Some of them will be tied to a leaderboard that has yet to be discussed in full. Specifically they are tied to an average time or average score in different missions throughout the campaigns. Here is the link: -snip- I like that they tied the easter eggs in H2 to achievements. Those will be my favorite to get, what about everyone else? Which Achievement do you have on your radar as your first, or favorite? Combined.rtf
  3. Looks like your wait is over for the list of achievements. IGN just release the list. http://www.ign.com/wikis/halo-master-chief-collection/Achievements Have fun! My favorite achievements will be all the easter egg stuff in H2. MEGG, the soccer ball, the scarab gun, etc.
  4. According to Halo Follower on Youtube, Frank O'Conner has stated that they are having troubles getting Halo 2 Anniversary campaign to run at 1080p. He states that it is due to running 2 graphics engines at once and allowing for the instantaneous switch between OG H2 and updated graphics. While I would prefer to have it at 1080p, it isn't a huge deal. He says that this is not affecting the MP, only the campaign. What do you think about this?
  5. Halo 2 on the OG Xbox did get a patch for online gameplay. It removed a couple of glitches that were used unfairly in matchmaking games. Mostly the rocket/sword glitch. You could always remove it from your hard drive and have some fun in customs and in the campaign. In fact the speedrunners that set records in H2 use the glitch extensively and with all scoped weapons. I always had fun with it, but I am glad that they decided to go post patch with the MCC. I am definitely with you on the bounces. I spent so much time bouncing, I still dream about superbounces. I can remember precisely where to land for almost all of the bounces I used to use strategically. And I still remember the feeling of accomplishment the first time I got to the top of the 'X' building on headlong!
  6. WOO HOO!!!! Halo 2 in all of its glory foreveh!!! lol. Probably going to only play H2, not gonna lie. I don't remember exactly, maybe someone can clarify, but I think I heard something about being able to join random customs as well? Like you can set your custom game to joinable and anyone can search and find your custom game. Almost similar to what you can do with XBC it seems. If so, that sounds like a BLAST! I hope I heard that anyway.
  7. This is something that actually concerns me. I know that I should not be complaining, but part of the fun of H2 was FINDING the skulls in the first place. So by having those sitting there it makes them not a challenge. Maybe ,since they were on Normal difficulty in the playthrough, there are different skulls. Or it was just a teaser to show that skulls are indeed in the game. They would have had to know where to go to find the skull if it were hidden, so 343i decided the best way to "re" start the skull hunt was to shows us one at E3. I will be VERY disappointed if they are not original in placement. I distinctly remember having 2 profiles saved for IWHBYD. One was with the infinite active camo glitch, and was one to try it legit. So many hours put in to getting that skull legit. (t'was a slight Legendary Noob) I think what they will do is allow you to use them whenever, i.e. you don't have to find them to activate them. However, I would almost guarantee they use the achievements as motivation to actually find them within the game. Similar to H3 achievements. IWHBYD should be at least 75 gamerscore if not more!
  8. You can play the game in the original graphics though. Personally I rather enjoy the look of the textures and shading that they have done to the campaign footage that I have watched. I'm curious to see how they retextured the scarab gun....
  9. The Acsension that you are concerned about is the "reimagined" version. That MCC will also include a remastered Acension that will be true to H2 style and gameplay. At least that is what I understand as of right now.
  10. So according to OXM here are the 106! maps listed so far. It still has 3 unannounced "reimagined" maps for H2A. What do you guys think of the list and which maps are you looking forward to the most? From Halo: Combat Evolved Battle Creek Blood Gulch Boarding Action Chill Out Chiron TL-34 Damnation Danger Canyon (PC) Death Island (PC) Derelict Gephyrophobia (PC) Hang 'Em High Ice Fields (PC) Infinity (PC) Longest Prisoner Rat Race Sidewinder Timberland (PC) Wizard From Halo 2 Ascension Backwash Beaver Creek Burial Mounds Coagulation Colossus Containment Desolation District (PC) Elongation Foundation Gemini Headlong Ivory Tower Lockout Midship Relic Sanctuary Terminal Tombstone Turf Uplift (PC) Warlock Waterworks Zanzibar Halo 2 maps remastered using a "native" Xbox One engine Ascension Lockout Zanzibar ??? ??? ??? From Halo 3 Assembly Avalanche Blackout Boundless Citadel Cold Storage Construct Epilogue Epitaph Foundry Ghost Town Guardian Heretic High Ground Isolation Last Resort Longshore Onslaught Orbital Pit Stop Rat's Nest Sandbox Sandtrap Snowbound Standoff The Pit Valhalla From Halo 4 Abandon Adrift Ascent Complex Daybreak Erosion Exile Forge Island Grifball Court Harvest Haven Impact Landfall Longbow Meltdown Monolith Outcast Perdition Pitfall Ragnarok Ravine Relay Settler Shatter Skyline Solace Vertigo Vortex Wreckage http://www.totalxbox.com/78078/be-upstanding-for-halo-the-master-chief-collections-full-map-list/
  11. I was just re-watching the IGN interview, more like listening while working, but noticed while they were scrolling through the menu before playing the campaign, that there is a "Big Rumble" game type in the matchmaking. (shows all 4 have available maps for it) This excites me! I wish it were up to 16, but having a 12 person FFA gametype takes me back to pre-xbl days and LAN parties. Four xbox's, four tv's and 16 people going at it was AMAZING. We used to play inviz schwatguns on midship for hours. The other gametypes are typical, but that one struck me as new. Is it, or am I just crazy?
  12. I took this to mean EVERYTHING and not just map packs. I did read somewhere that there were a couple of maps that were not included. I think Desolation was one. I am happy that they decided to include "all" the maps though. There are so many that I did not want to pay for. (I'm a cheap gamer)
  13. Stoked for Halo in Nov!!! Now to buy the xb1... Any one want to make some donations to my "charity"?

      Much Thanks! lol

  14. "It is also important to note that Halo CE and Halo 2 multiplayer will be the EXACT same as when it first shipped." I am curious as to how exact this will be. One of my fondest memories of H2 is of superbouncing. The games will be running on original engines, so will I be able to get to the top of Lockout? What glitches will remain?!?!!?! If EVERYTHING IS THE EXACT SAME, who wants to meet for a dance party on the roof of Ivory Tower?
  15. Here is where I am on this: I REALLY want a full reboot, Halo 2 was/is the only midnight release I have ever experienced. If they do a H2A of any sort I will be first in line just like I was back then. (admittedly I could not purchase it on my own as I was only 16) but still first. (my friend who was 18 bought my copy for me). It was also the only special edition game I have purchased. I loved that metal case! This game changed my life, I was never very social prior to playing on live and really became the people person I am today because of it. I would gladly purchase an XB1 just to play this one game if for no other reason. I'm getting too sentimental. Love the game. If they could leave the game engine the same (with all glitches working) that would be SUPER! While my Gamertag would only show 'x' number of games played, I spent hours upon hours playing with all the glitches, superbounceing, exploring where I wasn't supposed to go, and killing my soul trying to get the IWHBYD skull with no glitches. Seriously just a graphics overhaul is all I need to spend $85 or more on this.

      Congrates :3 I wish you all well

  17. I Second that! Are you flipping kidding me???? How could I not want this for gaming???
  18. I wouldn't call that weird. I really enjoyed CE's campaign as well. As far as story I would go with CE, but I prefer H2's for the glitches that were in it.
  19. I'm really intrigued by how H5 will be. If there are similarities to H2 in some of the gameplay I could see them tying the H2 anniversary into it to get some extra revenue in 2014.
  20. It was like 343i didn't want people to camp with the pistol... oh wait isn't that part of zombies??? I was glad that in Reach they took away the ability to pick up ammo. Though that ability did make for some incredibly long and fun matches in H2. lol the zombies standing outside of the doorway on Foundation unloading their ammo to keep from giving the humans ammo!
  21. Infection on Reach was good. How is was supposed to be. I agree that Halo 4's is weak. Part of that has to do with the flood themselves and part on map selection. Some maps make it pretty difficult to be a zombie. Back to subject though, I think my favorite infection map for H2 was Zanzibar. Nothing like crouching in the water with 15 zombies trying to find you!
  22. None were bad, all were great. But if I had to pick a least favorite it would be the last one, because that was the end of the campaign...
  23. Mostly I just want more people to be involved in the gameplay. Like in H2 I could go into matchmaking as a random and EVERYONE would have a mic. Now it seems that it is rare unless you go in with a team. I like teamwork and comradery.
  24. r4nd0m voices are running through my mind...please make them stop

  25. Yay for everyone! Everyone wins when people are good!
