  1. Looking for someone to play through any and all of the legendary co-op campaign on The Master Chief Collection, message me or add me : xDrewski ..... I'm ready to play whenever
  2. So we have 4 Xbox One's in a house together and we've been trying to figure out how to system link our Xbox's to play Halo MCC. Does anyone know how to get this to work or where to go to find the answer? We can connect to Xbox Live, and we have Xbox Gold. We have a router to connect them all. We're all here and ready, so quickness with an answer would be greatly appreciated. If you need more info that I haven't provided, let me know! Thanks!
  3. A colossal amount of information was just revealed for the Halo 5 Beta at HaloFest this year (I'm talking ALLOT of info). The whole video is at the bottom of this article. Oh, and I'm sure I got some of the information wrong, so feel free to correct me if you see any errors. Here's the gist: Everyone starts the same. Every Spartan Ability (I'll detail those later on in this article), and Weapon (starter primary, secondary, and grenades) is given to the player at the beginning. No Loadouts. Like how Halos 1-3 were played. All weapons contain a zoom feature, with some akin to ADS (Aim Down Sights). Not all weapons have this, like the DMR (the DMR is nearly the same as it's H4 counterpart Scope wise, and aesthetically). There seems to be a before, and after game animation for each Player Team that shows their aesthetics. The winning team taunts the other team in bravado. Everything listed in this article is based off of work-in-progress material in the Beta. So it's not final. The time the Beta releases makes it the earliest public Halo Beta ever released. There are a total of 7 maps that will be able to be played on in the Beta. There are now Weapons on map as in previous Halo games. NO MORE ORDINANCE. There will be three game modes in the Beta. What they exactly are is not clear, but it's certain Multiplayer is one of them. Power Weapons run on static timers. So a weapon like the Prophet's Bane comes around every 4 minutes. There's a Shield Bar, and Health Bar, but I'm not quite sure how they work. Random information from HaloFest: 343i has an internal Pro team they use to test the game. What's pretty funny is that they have Pros vs. Devs... and the Devs get completely destroyed in Halo 5 MP lol. One match was 50-4. Most of the play-testers (like Josh Holmes, some Pro players, and a few other devs) will be online playing with the community when the Beta launches. A couple celebrities came to HaloFest... like: Wayne Brady from "Let's Make A Deal" (that dude is hilarious), Joel Mchale from "Community", and Ben Schwartz from "House of Lies". Spartan Abilities / Movement & Scoping mechanics: Weapons: Maps: Allot of new armor was shown at HaloFest, but unfortunately I won't be able to detail them right now due to me already spending more than an hour on this article. The Halo 5: Guardians Multiplayer Beta begins on December 29th, and runs for 3 weeks until January 18th, 2015. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Thoughts? Source: YouTube View full article

  6. Now we know that MCC has been released in some countries and for some it is not long until it's release date is due and many are excited about what MCC has to offer the Halo community and of course most notably the bring back of Halo 2 multiplayer -which has brought a sense of joy, that this heart stopping moment has made great impact on many Halo gamers as if 343 has answered their prayers on what many fans considered to be their top number one as most wanted on their wishlist bucket load on MCC. So the question would be, what will be the first thing you do once you get MCC? I am intrigued to know that maybe a majority of you will go for the campaign or maybe even the multiplayer or perhaps the forge as well. Post your comments below
  7. Hello Anyone else luck enough like myself to get Halo Master Chief Collection 24 hours early? Im from the UK and the site i bought it from sent it out early. I've been searching Halo 2 matchmaking and not suprisingly no one else is online. Anyone else got it yet?
  8. If you are interested in helping the creation of a brand new clan created just for the Master Chief Collection, then you are in luck. As being a classic halo veteran I had always enjoyed the amazing community from each game, although more so with the expansion of the series it seems that the bulk of the community has diminished. I would love to bring back the nostalgic memories from these older games and that also includes the strong clan system along side with the games. Having the option to play any multiplayer maps from games Halo 1, 2, 3 and 4 is a dream come true from the eyes of a competitive halo player. If you would like to help me rekindle the amazing moments of each of these games, then please read further for more information about the clan. L0AD (Last Order of Armed Delinquents) The name L0AD had been a creative idea rolling around in my head since Halo 3 late years. I wanted something that could be easily abbreviated and used in a GamerTag while keeping an overall epic meaning. My idea for this clan will to have a dual-rank system to where there will be a highly competitive skill rank and a overall rank such as community and clan effort. The systematical community rank system will follow a similar one to that of the Halo 3 1-50 system. Examples will be... Clan Leaders/Founders - Generals First round of recruits - Brigadiers Second round of recruits - Colonels Third round recruits - Commanders And etc... Since this is a new clan the community rank system will be based on a first come first serve basis. Although the skill rank system will be rather more interesting, as after the first few weeks the clan leaders will set up a first ever In-Clan Tournament to fight for the highest skill rank in the clan. this will be set up as the top five winners of the tournament will be known as skill rank Generals with their respected places 1-5 along side with that title. The same will go for the next five Brigadiers, five Colonels, five Commanders and so on. After a stable clan has been created there will be Bi-weekly competitions to fight for new skill rank positions. Now that there are four different halo games to choose from, we can split the clan into groups for each game having a skill tree ladder for each one. This will allow for a variety of players to enjoy the clan benefits while keeping a strong clan community over all. The clan is in its early stages of creation, merely just an idea. I believe with the help of new members it can grow into a very fun and well put together community. Also the clan will be set on an Eastern Coast US and Canada GMT-5 time zone. If you have any questions or maybe you are on-board with my Idea the you can contact me via Forum message, GamerTag (The 0ver L0ad) or post in the forum comments. I will be glad to hear any ideas from anyone. Future plans include - A clan website Clan Logo Clan Motto A proper title system Possible TeamSpeak Channel Clan Creator, The 0ver L0ad
  9. Today, Eurogamer confirmed that the Day 1 Update for the Master Chief Collection has shrunk from the usual 20GBs to 15GBs. Dan Ayoub also states that the TU is available to pre-download if you pre-ordered the digital copy (it seems you need to enable Auto-Download to get the update though). This allows players to play the game the moment HMCC launches: Multiplayer and all. Also, yesterday, Halo & Xbox channels on YouTube uploaded some HMCC launch trailers.

  11. Halo: The Master Chief Collection day one playlists With the Master Chief Collection coming ever so close, and IGN being the first with all the new stuff, we get some clarification on what we're able to do when you get home with your brand new disc. Dat smell Today we get to know the multiplayer playlists, that you'll be able to participate in, are available at launch. Of course 343i understands that you want all of it! Shotty Snipers, Grif Ball, etc. They can only include a certain amount that will not spread the population too thin. (Kinda what happened in Halo: Reach) But at the same time not add a too small amount that will bore you after a week or so. They tried to get it just right for you! Here they are!: Team Halo 2: Anniversary Play a combination of Slayer and objective gametypes. 4v4 Halo 2: Anniversary Rumble Watch your back Spartan! No one else will! 8 player Free-for-all (See what I did there?) Team Halo 2: Anniversary Social Unranked Slayer and objective gametypes for the more casual player. 5v5 Team Slayer Destroy your opponents in 4 Halo-games: Halo: Combat Evolved, Halo 2, Halo 3, and Halo 2: Anniversary. Team Slayer ONLY. 4v4 Big Team Battle Destroy even more opponents in Halo: Combat Evolved, Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo 4 and Halo 2: Anniversary. 8v8 Halo: Combat Evolved Where it all began... Play Slayer and objective gametypes on the maps from Halo CE. 4v4 Halo 2 Classic A mix of the most popular Slayer and objective gametypes from Halo 2. 4v4 Halo 3 A mix of the most popular Slayer and objective gametypes from Halo 3. 4v4 (Where is the 'Classic' in this one?) Halo 4 A mix of Team Slayer and onjective gametypes from Halo 4, Only small and medium maps to suit the amount of players. 5v5 Team Hardcore Gametypes from Halo 2 and Halo 3 approved by tournament standards. Your trusty BR only. 4v4 Halo eSports The official Halo eSports playlist. 4v4 SWAT Make your shots count! Headshot will kill instantly! 4v4. (GSD eat your heart out!) There you have it, the line-up of what you'll be able to play at launch. Is your favourite playlist not in there?! Were you almost posting an angry rant on 343i's official forums?! Don't fret! More playlists might be added in the near future! What are you going to play first? And what playlists would you like to see added? Let us know down below! Thank you for reading!

  13. IGN posted an in-depth look at the Master Chief Collection with a list of "Bonus Facts", one of them a quip on the Halo 2: Anniversary Resolution. Frank O'Connor assured not that long ago that 343i was doing everything it could to get H2A to full 1080p, but was unsure whether or not they could achieve it in time. The new information shows that his worry is now the case. Blur's H2A cinematics look so real, that it's scary (hehe) In the BF (Bonus Fact... there's literally no other way to describe it) 343i Executive Producer Dan Ayoub told IGN: “During development we were really pleased with the way the engine and buffer allowed us to switch instantly between classic and Anniversary engines that are running simultaneously – however that, as you might expect, put a hit on resolution." "The campaign of Halo 2: Anniversary looked fantastic at 720p with the level of detail and clarity it gave us, but like every other aspect of the game and tech, we wanted to push it further. So in the last weeks of development, our teams were able to meet a stretch goal and the campaign of Halo 2: Anniversary now runs 60 fps at a crisp resolution of 1328x1080, which is a significant and meaningful boost in image quality we think fans are really going to appreciate. All of the other games across the entire package of The Master Chief Collection run 60 fps at 1920x1080 native.” So the final resolution for both the H2/H2A Campaign is 1328x1080p, and the rest of MCC runs at 1920x1080p native. Side Note: Dynamic Elements (like the stalactites of Lockdown) can be removed in Forge Before the resolution revelation IGN posted a few facts about The Master Chief Collection that were unknown at this point. Here's the near-full-letter quote of the list: There is no confirmation yet for Pre-Loading the MCC. Halo 3 and Halo 4 make use of the Xbox One controller's impulse triggers out of the box. Halo: CE and Halo 2 may have that functionality added in via a game update shortly after release. The Scorpion tank is in the Coagulation Anniversary remake, but you have to turn it on in Forge. In classic Halo 2 multiplayer, the Ghost's fuel tank could be shot, causing the Ghost to explode. This is also possible in the Halo 2-emulating Xbox One engine that runs the six Anniversary maps. 343i states - "We had to get Havok to recreate aspects of the original physics code used for Halo 2,". Halo: CE Anniversary's Kinect features are not supported in MCC. Halo: CE's multiplayer maps are the PC versions of the maps due to resolution, but their settings, such as spawn points, are set to make them play exactly as the original Xbox versions (i.e. the Banshee won't be on Blood Gulch). - - - - - - - - - - - - Thoughts?

  14. I am very curious. I can't imagine why 343 wouldn't upgrade Halo CEA to instant swich unless it is somehow not possible, or if it went completely over their heads. (Instant switch, of course, meaning the graphical switching ability from new to original instantly; featuring in Halo 2A) If you have an answer, please inform me. Thank you.
  15. Recently a few screenshots of Avatars in the Player ID of Halo: The Master Chief Collection were revealed on Halo4Nation (which I'm thinking they got the images from PAX). The above image shows Avatars: Halo 2 & Halo 3 Arbiter (I'm assuming), Jul Mdama, and SGT Johnson. The Player Emblem seems to be on the right of the images From what we can see the Player ID consists of: - Emblem & Color Customization - Avatar - Service ID (I think like B312, N00B, or B00) - Clan Tag - Roster Nameplate. UPDATE: Another screenshot of Master Chief Avatars from Halo4Nation, and updated Cortana/Palmer screenshot. In the spoiler below. Player ID screenshots: Then we have Spartan Armor customization revealed by Blake BellaMoMa, and Elite Armor customization (revealed by muah). Spartans: http://www.343industries.org/forum/topic/37554-spartan-armour-revealed/?do=findComment&comment=335598 Elites: http://www.343industries.org/forum/topic/37531-some-h2a-elite-armor-revealed/?do=findComment&comment=335250 That's it.

  17. As the title says, a screenshot of Elite Armor from Halo 2: Anniversary has been revealed (seemingly from PAX, and courtesy of Halo4Nation). One of the variants closely resembles the classic Elite Armor seen in the older games (like CE, 2, and Halo Wars) and the other two (from my knowledge) are unknown variants. Also above the 3 sets (which I'm guessing there will be more) is the regular Armor Option, what seems to be a "Armor Type" option (for either Spartan or Elite races), and finally the Player Colors. It has been confirmed on numerous occasions that armor unlocked from previous games, along all other unlocks (including Ranks) WILL NOT carry over into the Master Chief Collection. It's a clean slate of course. Well... that's it. End of the show, thanks for watching, and all that. - - - - - Thoughts?

  23. As the title says, this is an attempted full recap of the Halo panel at Gamescom, Day 1. First up it's the Halo Channel Next up is the Halo 5: Guardians Beta First Look. Lastly, we have the Sanctuary MCC reveal (Sanctuary is Reach's Asylum) The ranking system for MCC was mentioned somewhere (probably in the full panel, which HaloFollower has on his profile... which I don't feel like linking since it's not the official post), and I think P34nut has it on his thread. Soo colorful... And last, but not least, we have the Delta Halo Campaign Gameplay (Ardent Prayer). Welp I'll try to get some more information, but for now this is it. Thanks to P34nut, Ledgend1221, Edward Kenway, and Ardent Prayer for a good chunk of the information. - - - - - Thoughts?

  24. The limited edition for the Master Chief Collection has been announced We asked for it, and we got it! A Master Chief limited Edition has been announced. This limited edition is now available for pre-order at most retailers. This edition will include: -A Steelbook case -A physical map book featuring all maps that are in the game -The Grunt Funeral Skull DLC Now a little sad news for the US gamers. The Steelbook case will not be available for you. But you can of course still get your hands on the Map book and early acces for the Grunt Funeral Skull. (All skulls will be available to everyone after a month) An official price has not been released yet but my guesses are that the price won't be that much higher since we're only getting 3 items. The release date is set on Nov 11th for the US and Nov 14th for the UK. Now I'm interested to hear if you're going to get this limited edition and of so, would you rather have it release on Nov 11th without the Steelbook or would you rather have a release on Nov 14th with the Steelbook? Let me know down below! Thank you for reading! Source
