Really liking this new Brute technology in HW2. Brutes are truly the underrated geniuses of Halo.
>>145685890
I bet they just stole forerunner tech
>>145685890
Nigger Brutes just steal everything
>>145686025
No Brutes were kangz n shiieet. They was the masters of the universe until their chief scientist created the forerunners.

>said people don't use windows 10 or xbone
>>145688441
I use both and it has no exclusives. Even Phantom Dust is confirmed for not being exclusive.
>>145688441
Xbox has actually a better game lineup than PS4 does now after this E3.
The only reason you wouldn't get one is if you have a very capable gaming PC and no console friends to play with (because comp multi is version exclusive)
>>145688441
>mfw I just built a PC recently
>soon to get free games because I own them on xbox
everything went better than expected
>>145688441
It's just sonygger shitposting.
Idort can certainly make that argument, but Idort are a small fraction of the gaming public.
And even then, you can't play matchmaking with console players, who have a much larger base.
>>145688441
>>145688587
*Microsoft Exclusive
>mfw I just bought an xbone to play Halo with my friends
I wasted my money didn't I?
>>145688441
>released for console and pc
>exclusive
Pick one.
>>145689072
>sigmundplayingBTB.webm
>>145689183
No, you'll be able to play with your friends. It's still uncertain how crossplay works for most of the games.
>>145689183
Not really. Halo 5 and MCC won't be ported over to PC except for forge and custom games in Halo 5.
Halo 6 on PC is a possibility.
>>145689127
The post said Xbone exclusive, and they're not. The point is that the xbone is worthless, especially since some people love the controller and you can buy that separately.
>>145689127
Meaningless since vast majority of pc gamers use microsoft os.
>>145689547
>implying that makes it exclusive
>implying Microsoft owns the production of personal computers
>implying they make a fucking cent off of distribution
No.
>>145689769
Its only on windows 10 AKA only on the windows 10 store so yes they make all the money you retard.
>>145689558
If you have a good PC or the will, time and money to build one then yes, the Xbone is completely worthless for you.
For the average consumer it still is a better and cheaper option than a PC.
>crossplay halo
>pc players shit on console with mouse aim

"Windows 10 Exclusive"
Most of the world still uses Windows 7, including me.
>>145689769
>Xbox one and Windows 10 exclusive
>Microsoft owns Windows
Come on anon, i'm sure you can connect the dots.
>>145690005
Not for long if Microsoft has their way.
They'll continue to push harder and harder for everyone to make move.
>>145689072
This is why we don't play multiplayer FPS on consoles.
>>145690282
My shitty computer can't get the windows 10 update. It doesn't have the requirements.
>>145689989
Halo isn't on PC and never will that's the Xbox flagship.
>>145689872
Distribution of hardware, you dip.
Not to mention, nobody fucking paid for windows 10.
>>145690565
Halo 6 is going to be on PC anon.
>>145689989
Crossplay won't include competitive natchmaking.
Spencer has already confirmed this.
The Windows pop will die quickly. Just like every other AAA game on PC that isn't COD or Battlefield... actually, even battlefield is pretty dead.
>>145690631
>posting tumblr cartoon characters
Literally worst than anime girls
>>145690565
Yeah but apparently Phil's plan is to make Xbox = Xbone+W10
I'm 99% sure Halo 6 will be released on both. They're already testing the waters with H5 Forge edition.

Why is literally everyone bad at this beta? It's a fucking babby slow RTS. I've had one good teammate so far and no good enemies.
>>145690982
>these fucking bitrates
Apply yourself.
>>145690631
You must have no idea what windows 10 is and how it works if you think MS doesn't make money off it.
>>145690746
>>145690694
Halo 6 will be on Windows 10 PCs, but matchmaking will not be shared between console and Windows servers.
Like >>145690716 said, the windows pop will probably dry up quick. Consoles have an infinitely larger AAA playerbase.
>>145690873
Team Fortress 2 was only made available on console via the Orange Box and received minimal updates then was dropped by valve completely.
>>145690982
>343i weapon skin

*Microsoft exclusive
>>145691476
I want this meme to die, you are probably just following what /v/ says and don't even know the cons of W10.
>>145691476
Also 'themselves', anon.
Personally, I don't mind it being on Win10. Means I don't have to get up off my ass and go into the other room to turn the TV and XBone on to play something. I'm happy with everything being on one platform.
>>145691732
Go away Phil no one wants windows 10

>This webm just reminds me that there isn't any theater in Halo campaign
>>145693635
Needs more tanktop guy
>>145693813
That's what DVR is for, I guess
I had a friend who really loved Halo and would play it pretty much every day, he had recommended me a series called Red vs Blue I think, do you guys how is it? Is it worth watching?
I haven't seen or talked to that guy for like 4 years, I don't know why I just remembered this at this hour
>>145693813
Literally the only reason H4 and H5 don't have a theater mode is because it fucks with the few QTE events in the games.
>>145694508
The action scenes kinda ruined it in the later seasons, but other than that it's pretty okay.
It's good for nostalgia.
>>145692753

haven't played Halo in a while because I sold everything
Halo for PC when?
Fuck microsoft
>>145697801
>Halo for PC when?
Why do you want to know? I thought you said it looks like shit.
>>145698150
Read my post again
I played all Halos and I like it but I prefer my multiplayers on the PC because it's much faster
that's why I rather play UT at the moment while I hope/wait for them to bring it to the PC
>>145698504
>UT
Well fuck dude, of course you don't like the look of new Halo
>>145698427
I've gotcha, fampai.
>Breath of the Wilds uses your TP save file stats for features
>Acerola's new game came out
>Monster Hunter demo
Fuck. How can I play Halo with all of this happening?
>That moment when everyone is distracted with E3 and Halo Wars 2 and nobody notices that firefight is coming in 2 weeks
>>145699213
Just grab your controller and turn on your Xbone.
>>145699524
I'm really excited to see what this "biggest update" includes besides Firefight, especially for Forge, but at the same it depresses to know that 343 will most likely stop supporting Halo 5. I really liked all those comfy streams, teases and speculation leading up to each month's update.
>>145699524
I'm pretty sure even 343 doesn't know that firefight is coming in two weeks.
>>145699945
I'm hoping we get a community update tomorrow night to show off another Forge tease and the REQ preview.
>>145700110
They said by the end of June. The 30th is exactly 2 weeks away.
>>145700150
The update is supposed to come at the end of june, so i guess they'll release the blurry REQ sheet tease next week and tomorrow will be just another tease.
>>145699213
What's it use the TP stats for?
Also, Breath of the Wilds looks fucking great with all the stuff they showed yesterday.
>>145700218
>343
>meeting their own schedules
Better start tweeting Bravo now, then.
>>145700402
There's only 1 more Friday in June after tomorrow.
>>145700445
The hearts you have in TP can be saved onto the wolf link amiibo, which is then used as a companion with that many hearts in BotW.
>>145700218
>>145700486
My guess is:
>17/06: Firefight and forge info/tease
>24/06: Blurry REQ sheet preview
>28-29/06: Update livestream
>30/06: Update release date
>>145700712
They never release an update without the full req reveal.
>>145700792
I'm pretty sure they saved the full REQ reveal for the first 2-3 streams.
>>145700960
Wasn't able to find anything for Infinity's Armory, but Cartographer's Gift was before the livestream/release.
>>145700445
Well, I don't know how that file happened
>>145700695
It just keeps getting better, now I can finally use my Wii U again
>>145694782
Maybe they shouldn't put in retarded QTE's then
Sometimes there's just things you can't fully capture with a 30 second first person clip that's lost forever if you don't immediately record it
>>145702048
You can change the amount of time a clip records.
>>145702048
Yeah, it's a really dumb thing to add in, but they probably thought nobody would care
>>145698821
no sorry you still don't get me
I like the look of Halo very much
but the multiplayer is too slow for me to take is serious
just look at all the webms posted here
and then look at UT, CS, Quake, you name it
everything is faster than a console multiplayer ego-shooter
>>145700695
>amiibo cancer
15$ physical DLC that will only get more expensive as time goes on
Imagine playing zelda U 20 years from now and wanting to use the wolf companion. Pull up eBay and see a list of them for 200$
>>145702254
The intent is to share them with a friend.
>>145702254
>bought TP on release for $60
>came with the amiibo
>not have to give a shit
Cry more.
>>145702406
None of my friends are retarded enough to buy amiibos either
I'm perfectly fine with amiibos as collectible figures, but provide an alternative way to unlock their features for someone who doesn't want them
>>145702502
>but provide an alternative way to unlock their features for someone who doesn't want them
There is, you enter-key-mashing dip. If you spent less time whining about it on internet forums, you'd know you'd only ever need one.
>>145702253
When I said look, I meant the gameplay.
Who gives a fuck about "muh garphics"?
It's always been slower than the others.
>>145702457
It's okay when Nintendo does it
>>145702254
I-It's okay when Nintendo does it!!
>>145702932
The only other ones to do that are Skylanders and Disney Infinity, and nobody complains about those.
It's more accurate to say that it's only "wrong" when Nintendo does it.
>>145702932
>it comes with the remaster
It's no different than bonuses when you move save data over to the sequel.
>>145703124
So instead of being a 15$ physical DLC, it's a 60$ physical DLC
Got it
I wouldn't have any problem with this if every game was like Mario maker, in that you can unlock the features without the amiibos, they just unlock it instantly
>>145703325
Did you cry about moving save files over in ME2 and 3?
And even then, the BotW feature literally is easy mode. You can start the game with a 20-heart companion with nonstop iframes.
>>145703325
>ignoring the argument
Get fucked.
>it's only bad when ninty does it!
Alright boys, let's take our guesses at what we'll get for new Commanders, since Prophet is a definite no-show.
>>145703674
It's bad when anyone does it
Amiibos are fucking cancer
>>145704509
>>145704819
Okay, so no more moving data between games ever. Alright.
>>145704974
You can move data between games without the use of a 60$ plastic Mcdonalds toy
>>145704862
Racist UNSC commander when?
>>145705149
>keeps insisting it's $60
>keeps factoring in the price of the game from which the save comes from
Your own argument is self-defeating. If you didn't pay that $60 for the game and amiibo, you wouldn't have a save at all.
>>145705279
>what are digital versions
>>145705371
>he bought a digital version of a game that everyone already owns
If you were buying digital, you should have just pirated the dolphin version, you retarded fuck.
>>145705149
That was included with the game.
For free.
You need $60 dollar games to move the data between games in the first place, is that bad too?
>>145705435
Digital version for convenience and because amiibos are cancer and support cancerous practices
Like locking game features behind 15$ physical DLC that will only get more expensive as time goes on and providing no alternative way to unlock these features in most titles
Oh yeah, you still don't need a mcdonalds toy to copy save data so I still don't see why it should matter if I have the digital copy or not
>>145705737
You bought an overpriced version of a game everyone already owned and were surprised when you didn't get the full package after refusing to buy the full package? Are you really this stupid?
I hope you swear up and down that 343 is the worst developer ever for locking all that stuff off at launch for Halo 4.
>>145705737
>came with the game
>complaining that it's locked away behind something that was free if they bought physical
Digital only faggots need to be gassed, how's it feel not owning your games?
Plus, locking things behind $60 digital only DLC is the new hotness, so have fun not even owning your DLC either.
>>145705973
I do hate halo 4, yeah.
And for the record I didn't actually buy itHacked WiiU
>>145706245
>complaining even though it didn't affect you
Oh boy, butthurt you can't steal DLC now?
Physical DLC is the best thing to happen just to get you faggots flustered.
>>145706245
So you pirated a game everyone already owned FOR FREE, and are mad that you're not getting access to content that you doubly refused to pay for?
You're cancer. Shit like amiibo exists because you pirate. Every single one of the complaints you've had is directly your fault.
>>145706472
I don't see how anyone could defend amiibos. Haven't bought a Nintendo sytem since the wii and I am glad.
Get fucked, drone
>>145706579
You're the only one getting fucked.
>>145706630
Keep telling yourself that as you pay 15$ for a plastic piece of shit to unlock content in the game you already bought
Literal C A N C E R
Why are people arguing about Nintendo games in my /hg/ reeeeeeeeee
>>145706579
>optional shit
>usually for single-player games and for features that make things easier
>now people can't pirate everything
>I- it's not like I wanted those games anyway, b-baka!
How's it feel knowing the industry caught on and is actively shitting on piracy?
>>145706730
All I know is that I paid standard price and got more content than a piratefag can, and that makes him upset over more games he'll refuse to buy. It added even more benefits to that price I paid. And that makes me happy.
>/hg/ - Zelda and amiibo's general
>>145706730
But you'll gladly pay 15 for DLC that according to the TOS you don't own? Have fun having your accounts locked and never being able to get your money back.
>>145704509

>buy game

>have to buy 15$ toy at Walmart
>>145707120
>toy came with game
>>145707189
Not digital copies and not every game
>>145707269
You bought a copy for convenience's sake, if you even bought it at all, and are upset that the convenience had a tradeoff. You have no right to be mad.
>>145707269
>buying digital
You don't own that, they can revoke it any time, for any reason.
You don't get the codes included with day 1 copies of certain games when you buy them used, to you whine about that too?
>>145707371
>still thinking I'm only talking about twilight princess
>>145707536
And you're still wrong. Why would buying digital give you the benefit of buying physical?
>>145707414
You don't own physical anymore on xbone or Ps4
If XBL goes down it asks me to purchase the game on the store when I put the disc in
>>145707536
>features for single-player games that make it easier
Yeah, I'm fine with that.
Plus, I own that physical DLC. They can't suddenly make it stop working like digital.
>>145707637
Not every game comes with an amiibo fucktard
Every other game it's 15$ dlc
>>145707717
Yeah, funny how that works.
Good thing that's one of the things nintendon't.
>>145707981
The ones with "significant" content come with that amiibo, unless it's Triple Deluxe. The rest are so minor that they don't even matter.
>>145707981
I still keep that DLC if my account is deleted, more than Microshit and Sony offers.
Especially with how ban-happy Microshit is, just look at Dragoneye.
>>145708101
He got banned for a screenshot right
>>145708278
No that was Sigmund, that was why he had to make an alt
>>145708278
Pretty sure he got banned for saying the equivalent of "get cancer" to somebody.
Lost all of his stuff, no appeal either.
And certainly no money back.
>>145707414
Yes actually, online passes and pre-order bonus codes are cancer as well
Stop eating the gaming industry's jewy shit
>>145708396
>Stop eating the gaming industry's jewy shit
Says the guy jewing stuff for free.
>>145708278
>>145708350
I got banned from posting screenshots to the game page or some shit.
The comm ban was telling somebody I fucked their mom, and it was for two weeks.
Now I just use really roundabout language.
>>145708464
What? I buy my games. If I do ever pirate one it's to see if I like it, then I buy it afterwards.
>>145708396
Okay, let me not lock my store up at night to protect my business, that's giving in to the security jew!
>>145708612
And if you bought these games, you'd have the amiibo, too. So there's no reason to complain. The only way you couldn't transfer your TP save to BotW for a tiny feature that everyone else will say you played the game wrong for using is if you pirated it.
>all this talk about new Reqs and Warzone Firefight
Am I the only one that's excited for the other stuff in the update? Namely the campaign scoring and new achievements? Finally something that adds replayability to the campaign. God knows it needed it.
>>145708957
all it needs is a PC port tbqhwymgf
>>145708612
>I'm not stealing this apple, I'm just tasting it first!
If you bought it, you'd have it too, you digital-buying shitter.
>>145708957
Campaign scoring is gonna be fun with /hg/
>>145708758
>having a doggo companion is playing the game wrong
Fuck off, it's a cool feature.
>>145709119
>eat apple while in store because hungry
>pay for apple afterwards
Meme off. Food analogies are shit by the way so fuck off with those.
>>145709190
Oh, I'm going to use it. That's why I'm playing TP right now. But it's very clearly easy mode. He follows you everywhere, seems to do several hearts of damage, never gets hit, and has 20 hearts of health.
Anybody that uses it is playing easy mode, and anyone complaining about not having it should have bought the last game. Really, it's Windwaker HD buyers getting fucked, here.
>>145709190
I like the idea of it, I can't wait to surf with doggo
>>145699213
>buying the Wii U version of Breath of the Wild
Not only will it run significantly worse, the lead dev has already said the Wii U tablet makes the game annoying to play.
>>145709346
>get blacklisted from store as a shoplifter
Good job, it's still stealing under the law.
Here's another one:
>open pack of trading cards before buying them
>>145709570
No, it's not. You tell them you ate an apple or show them the half-eaten one and they charge you for it
I've literally done this before while buying apples
>>145709092
>all it needs is a PC port tbqhwymgf
Spencer literally confirmed the other day it's not happening.
The forge mode is the best you can hope for. It at least comes with some custom game modes.
Halo 6 will launch on PC, granted, without crossplay with console players in matchmaking and likely without splitscreen.

There's a million reasons why I don't believe you.
No way would a store let that happen unless it was a small mom and pop that you knew personally.
>not addressing the argument
>>145709770
Full halo 5 multiplayer (and forge)is coming to PC
there's just no matchmaking for it. You've gotta get a group together.
>>145709770
Hopefully it's cross-buy
>>145709890
Nah man, the cashiers don't give a shit.
I've also opened bags of chips while shopping as well. If anyone were to confront me about it (it's never happened) I'd just say "yeah, I'm buying these, I could go buy it right now if you want"
Also I don't know what argument you want me to address and we've gotten off-topic from the already off-topic argument

Seemed pretty fine at the presentation

Hoping for a lot of new Forge stuff.

That's not in any way "full multiplayer" then.
There's also no warzone, warzone assault, warzone firefight, etc.
And you can't even play it with random people on PC. They have to be on your Xbox live friends list.
It will be a cool little treat, and I'll get some fun out of it, but it's nowhere near the full Halo 4 multiplayer experience. Not even close.
The primary usage for it is to make forge maps on PC for the larger playerbase on console.
Halo 6 will have a more true multiplayer experience, though even that won't have competitive crossplay with the larger player base on console.
>>145709905
Halo 5 forge mode is free
>>145710237
I don't see a problem here as long as you DO buy them
What difference does it make
>>145710430
>add random people to your friends list
>join them
It's not like there's a limit anymore.
>>145710463
The entire point is opening it to see what's inside, you're not supposed to be able to pick and choose.We've gone way off topic

Humanity stronk, death to Covvie scum
>>145710708
Yeah but you won't choose if you buy it. You're stuck with it.I agree
>>145711303Wanna argue about lore instead?
>>145710646
The overwhelming majority of PC users want nothing to do with Xbox Live

Sadly this.
It will be tough enough just to get /hg/ to play.
Hell, it's tough enough to get /hg/ to play now.
It's a nice gesture by MS, but it won't take off.
>>145712732
It's not that hard to get us to play, and I'm sure we'd do our forge shit on PC for easier control
>>145712732
Any /hg/ user who plays with us on Xbone already has an MS account and shouldn't care about avoiding Xbox Live.
>sisters friend is over
>I'm out of toilet paper while in bathroom
Send help
>>145713542
Just ask them to get some from the storage room, dumb-dumb
You go back in time before Halo 5 is released. Do you still buy it knowing what you know now?I wouldn't.
>>145712179
Then they won't be in matchmaking, now will they?
>>145713542
Call your sisters phone them and just tell them to get toilet paper.
>>145713747Yes, because it let me play with /hg/ and gave me something to do. Plus now I know it actually gets sorta better.
>>145713787
But what if they smell my stinky shit?
>>145713939
Tell them to just throw it through the door and you'll catch it.
>>145713542
Sacrifice your socks for the cause. Leave the bathroom barefoot, no one will notice.
