A bunch of fucking people have. I remember beating it on legendary SOLO in the 8th grade.

This isn't your fucking highschool anymore, bozo. There are alot of people out there, and those people have done great things. Beating Halo 2 on legendary is fucking LAUGHABLE.

They are men who have mastered mathematics, built skyscrapers, designed microchips, programmed Photoshop, etc. Beating a game on the hardest difficulty ain't shit, you fucking sheltered brat. This is why you are sub 4500 MMR and aren't Global Elite, because you are a GENETIC SHITTER.

Reach solo-legendary is overall a harder experience.

No, Halo's Legendary is one of the best examples of good difficulty because you can kill things almost as quickly as on Easy if you know how the game works, and the only unfair thing in the entire series is the snipers in 2.

I just want to be able to play through Halo 3 and 5 with a mouse and keyboard. I don't care if that means adding mouse and keyboard support to the Xbox games and they never come to PC.

It'd take no effort and iirc the Xbox One already supports mouse and keyboard in game if developers support it too.

>>342887523
The only thing legendary does is up the damage that enemies can deal. You still kill them in the same amount of time if you play well.

The ammo thing maybe, but I don't think so. Either way legendary is not difficult, just use cover a lot and use every weapon to your advantage
>>
>>342880885
I've never beaten Halo 2, period. I got up to the Delta Halo, realized I was playing the exact same game as the first, and stopped playing.
>>
>>342887523
They don't take away your ammo at all, and you'd know that if you actually played the game.

Enemies do get upgrades to shield strength though, which just means you have to use plasma based weapons to break shields, which is convenient for the enemies who use those because it works against you too.

Legendary was really just more tedious than anything. Only played a bit of H2 on Legendary and it felt a bit samey. Legendary only makes a handful of weapons viable and kinda forces you to cheese your way through specific situations. It's not really like playing at a peak level, it's just kinda silly.

Have any of you faggots beat halo 5 solo legendary? I really don't think it's possible.

>>
>>342887523
>They take away a lot of your ammo
No they don't, you're confusing legendary with skulls.

Enemies get upgraded shields, health, weapons, ranks, and AI though. The purpose is to encourage you to take advantage of different weapon types. They don't want you sticking with Pistols/BRs the entire game.

>Legendary was really just more tedious than anything.

Not really, I can go through the entire game without dying once for CE. It does make the assault rifle effectively useless though, and certain weapon combinations are insanely overpowered like carrying around plasma pistol + regular pistol.

Beat it coop on xbox back in the day with my bro and solo on PC I'm recent years. Believe it or not but coop is actually harder than solo because iron skull is always active. Also halo 2 is by far the hardest halo but only on xbox. The PC version is much easier on legendary because of mouse. Especially at the Outskirts/Metroplois snipers.

I did it blind at release. It's not hard when you can just sit back and wait for the AI to respawn before you throw them into the fight again. The worst part is the 3 wardens at the end, you just have to hope you can nuke one down before the other two rape you, and then do it again.

Legendary kinda pigeon holes you into using only specific weapons. I'd be more fine with it if Halo had more weapons that could reliably headshot for damage but the game just doesn't have that. That and the fact that elites will randomly dodge sticky grenades is really annoying. I'd be fine if they could dodge grenades that you throw from range but they will literally read your inputs and dodge a point blank sticky grenade, which makes the whole ordeal more of a dice roll than a test of skill.

This has nothing to do with it being tedious. You're forced to stick to cover and wait for your shield to recharge constantly, which is tedious. The games on Legendary are more a test of patience than a test of skill.

The automatic in CE feels like trash though. Spammy, weak, no way to burst fire it to better control the RNG spread.

Sniper and shotgun are godtier though. The shotgun in CE is insane really, you can easily clear out a hallway of flood in seconds with the fucking thing. Probably one of the most satisfying shotguns in a game.

speaking of skulls, i turned on the no auto aim skull whenever i could because it actually made the game easier for me so its pretty funny how i got free points for making it "harder". auto aim always just made me miss a lot with the sniper because another enemy would pull away my aim or something.

I get that, but rumor is Halo 5 wasn't originally meant to be Halo 5. It was meant to be a spinoff open world game similar to ODST where Team Osiris searches for clues to chief's disappearance and said clues would trigger flashback missions to explain what's going on.

The story we got in Halo 5 is apparently around 30% of what was planned, hence the major discrepancies between the pre-release material and the final game.

Halo 5 actually has some of the best gameplay the series has ever had, and it's forge is almost a dev tool. it's just the story sucks and the campaign is short, and it lacks local multiplayer.

Which is why you should just get the free PC port of rorge and customs once that comes out, since that;s literally all the good shit the game has to offer for free.

Mostly correct. I don't hate Reach, but it's a stupid fucking entry to the series. The only people who seem to love it were the guys who started with it.

I mean, I had a lot of fun with its broke ass multi, but its cannon breaking and really weird, shitty writing and gameplay direction just made it a chore to play.

Of course, now in the age of 343i, Reach seems acceptable. It's funny how, as series go down the tubes, what used to be the worst entries get remembered more and more fondly.
>>
>>342892574
2 is much harder than 3 on Legendary. If you did 2 already, 3 is going to be a cakewalk. Parts of CE can eat a dick though, specifically The Two Betrayals and Keyes.
>>
>>342888317
Flood levels in CE are fun as fuck. The entire game is you largley fighting projectile based enemies and using cover to recharge your health, then suddenly you get put into a situation were you need to constantly move and you actually need to run and gun to survive them.

>>342890801
I mean for the single player, it's been like 10 years since I've played Halo CE multiplayer.
>>
>>342892304
most of that applies to Halo 4 and 5.

at least Reach was fun and TRIED to fit into canon instead of shattering it into a million pieces while ruining characters. all 343 has going for it is making MC an actual character, but they fucked that up by making him barely even matter in Halo 5.

and fuck you, forge world was amazing. Customization from that and armor options have been the biggest letdowns since.

>It's funny how, as series go down the tubes, what used to be the worst entries get remembered more and more fondly.
To my credit, at least, even when the game first came out and people were upset at it, I liked it. And I started the series with CE.

Pretty much this, out of all of Halo 5's problems as a story, breaking canon wasn't too much of a problem. There were some contradictory things such as the Domain being referred to as a Forerunner construct, but that can easily be explained as the characters didn't know it was a Precursor creation.
>>
>>342893509
I did, it completely shit all over the established cannon regarding everything from the battle of Reach, Cortana, the Spartan II program, and the Spartan III program. I'd read Nylund's trilogy before Reach came out, so I got to experience every cannon break in real time. Wasn't fun. Or necessary. They had good subject matter regarding Reach to work with already, and Noble team and the events of the game were completely uninteresting by comparison.

Spartan III's wearing MJOLNIR armor in the promos were the first red flag. It just got worse from there.

>but Eric Nylund worked on Reach's limited edition content

I know, he wrote what he was contracted to write. That doesn't change that Bungie decided to suddenly shit all over what he'd made for them in the past. Felt like a slap in the face.

>To my credit, at least, even when the game first came out and people were upset at it, I liked it. And I started the series with CE.

I like Reach as well. That doesn't change everything that's wrong with it. I'm capable of enjoying it while not defending everything that it fucked up. Just like how I enjoyed Halo 4 for at least one run through while still knowing that it was dogshit. Or Oblivion. A game can be good, but still have a lot wrong with it.

I can understand this one, just because not having energy shields would change the gameplay (like odst). I remember them mentioning this in a vidoc, and they knew that spartan 3's didn't have shields, they just chose to ignore that for gameplay sake.

>>342889897
I really hated how H2 just removed all the gun feedback. Instead of having a Pistol where the slide blew back and felt strong even for a one-ton walking tank, you had a rifle that farted and barely even wiggled in your hands. None of the animations or movement felt like they had any weight.

A bunch of people hate the jump delay too, but I loved how it felt like you were trying to get said one-ton tank off the ground, not like Halo 2 where you just rocket up 50 feet into the air instantly.

They could have slapped shields on their SPI armor. Shields aren't the issue, it's that MJOLNIR can only be worn by SII's. III's don't have the necessary augments to not get ripped apart by it. This is mentioned in Ghosts of Onyx.

It's just such a weird oversight. They could have just said their armor wasn't MJOLNIR, but some custom ONI shit that has shields but not the super-duper reaction time and strength boosts that make it dangerous for non II's.

I mean, I don't want to sound like a sad nerd who's hung up on lore, but I'm a pretty butthurt nerd who's hung up on lore. I don't like the Pete Hines attitude that devs seem to have about their cannon. If it's part of the series, I want it to be as respected as the game content.
