Why do so many people here hate Halo when it's the granddaddy of FPS?
Because it's casual trash and anyone who likes it was born well into the 90s

Retarded bait aside, I loved halo. It was a great, fun game with a cool story.
There are lots of really old and grumpy PCnerds on /v/. They can't admit that Halo is pretty good.
I like halo

no those faggots grew up on halo 3 and reach. i was born in 1990, everyone loved halo, some of my friends traded in their PS2s for halo, halo 2 was the biggest game in the world.

Gen Z millennials: The Thread.
i always loved halo 1 & 2. decent shooter, great story.
loved how the forerunners were these mysterious, ultra-technological people of the past. hated how they are just generic enemies in the new games.

Dunno about that, but it's definitely a classic. Series lost me with 3, but I still have a fond place in my heart for Halo.
>>341452071
Halo 3 wasn't bad either, the multiplayer was excellent even. They should have ended with 3 and done some other shit but Microsoft didn't have anything else to fall back on so it became stale and they're just asspulling at this point
>>341451434

People still LAN Halo 1, you just have to know the right people.
Although my group became much less active once MCC hit.

How old are you?
>>341451434
People hate it because it was the poster child of Xbox and Sony and Nintendo already had fanboys in 2001. That's where the hatred began. Every other argument against it somehow stemmed from that.
>>341452415
Want some more (you)s? Or something? You could've just asked

I don't think that picture applies to millenials. You know millenials refers to people born in 1980-1999 right?

Linear design can be amazing, if the levels are actually interesting, like in Half-Life.
Gaylo, not so much.

I was born in 88 and the the original halo trilogy is better than half the tacticool shit that's out now
>>341452479
Not that guy, but I guess you are going to lie through your teeth that Halo 2 had "tuh best campaign" right?
>>341452985
You didn't answer my question, but here's another (you)
Use it wisely
Who else played Goldeneye as their first FPS?
>>341452546
It uses all 3 keys nicely, has both bright and dark areas and actually kinda feels like I'd expect an evil megacorporation's moonbase to feel like.
>>341452479
>chirping 3 but not posting what's actually wrong with it
I will say this though, the only thing h3 had over 2 was the graphics and forge everything else was watered down. oh and the shit maps compared to 2
>>341452813
no one born in 1980 relates to anyone born in 1999. stop using retarded definitions of 'generations'
>>341452985
Oh no people like things you don't. It's just the worst, isn't it?
>>341453329
It had a better campaign then what ever the hell that shit was in Halo 2 as well.
>>341451434
Because Halo 4 and 5 are shit. Gameplay is shit, artstyle is shit, story is shit, MP is shit.
I loved the series until and including Reach, but until Bungie returns, I have zero interest. Fuck 343i.
>>341453130
No.That was ODST
>>341453329
You basically listed everything wrong with it already.
Although I will give Bungie some points since it was the only Halo game that wasn't a complete overhaul of its predecessor.
>>341453453

>>341451934
Halo isn't really that linear. In the first game, and to a lesser extent, 3 and Reach, some levels were pretty open to exploration. Halo 3 ODST was even open world. I'd have loved to have a proper open world Halo where you play as a spartan.

I wasn't talking about MP, I know Halo 2 had a better MP it just didn't have a better SP.
>>341453329
>Halo 3
>shit maps
Guardian, The Pit, and Construct are three of the best maps in the series. Isolation and Snowbound are the only two that I would call bad.
halo on legendary will always be special to me

Are you out of your goddamn mind? Get off /v/ kiddo
>>341453690

This is fine, but health needed to be visible so that it didn't feel like you just randomly took more damage. This happened in Halo 1 and it was a better game for it.

>>341454031

Shit remake of Lockout. The only ways around the map leave you totally visible and vulnerable. Slayer became a standstill.
>Pit
Pic related. No reason to ever move to the other side, as every power item spawns in a hallway on the 50-yard line.
>Construct
The bottom floor might as well not even be there because nobody used it. Overreliance on lifts, and only 2 hard routes to the top.
>>341454047
smg was weaker but I guess you could duel wield it/hold up to 8 nades...I also hated the bleed through, 1 shot sniper pissed me off so much and the guy can't get a head shot. it was better with the more "auto" weaker sniper in h2
>>341454031

>>341454040
just because it was a FPS before Halo doesn't mean it was any good. what Halo did, was something nothing else had done. sure, it was a point your gun and shoot, but the way it was delivered was so amazing, so different. the 3d technology, the introduction of the aliens and the flood, the fast paced shooting. the guns, the atmosphere, music, the visuals at the time. it wa s something to behold and only Sony fags were seething with jealous rage because they were afraid of change.
>>341454280gitgud
>>341455046
You pretty much just described the very games you're arguing against. Minus the 3D, ofcourse.
>>341455580

I did like how they had the covenant running scared and you didn't know why at first, really built up the tension.

Let's hear some more of this awful opinion.
>>341451434
>>341452083
Because they're scrubs who did not have friends IRL to link up multiple Xboxes with for glorious basement LAN action. I honestly think this is the answer, tbqhwyf.
I'm actually visiting my hometown right now and decided to bust out the Gamecube and Xbox for some multiplayer nostalgia with my friends. Last night we played some Halo:CE for about 3 hours.
I had forgotten how easy it was to create characters, make new game modes, etc. We jumped right into some bitching old game modes and proceeded tohave fun. Blood Gulch CTF, Oddball on Derelict, Slayer on Hang Em High and fucking rockets onWizard.
I have yet to have as much fun in any multiplayer experience that I had in 8th grade playing CE every day after school with friends. On the weekends we would get 8 person LANs and the game never got boring. The only reason we even stopped was because Halo 2 came out.
imho the console shooter experience will never be as good as halo:ce was because we're too far into online gaming and the people in the proper age range now have no idea what a LAN even is.
I highly recommend busting out the old brick and grabbing some friends for a CE sesh. Most fun multiplayer experience I've had in years was last night.

Spouting memes won't make those shit maps any better. But of course 3babbies have no arguments.
>>341455952
>wide open spaces only good for spamming the pistol
>maps with random shit piled everywhere for seemingly no reason
>bland textures and environments
>map is literally just two hallways next to each other
I loved Halo 1 too anon but let's stop pretending it's better than 2 or 3 just to get more fedora points on 4chan.
>>341456125
I know you're just a baiting faggot, but I'll bite anyway.
Hang em High and Blood Gulch are literally 10/10 FPS maps
There you go, you cucking faggot. you can leave now
>>341456125
The only actual argument you made was against Construct. The rest is buzzword spouting nonsense and bias.
>>341456412
>giving yous to the wrong anon
wew lad
>2 maps out of the whole game
Wow anon.
>>341455046
Are you talking about half-life?
>>341456329
>>wide open spaces only good for spamming the pistol
As opposed to the wide open spaces on other maps? Halo 1 has some relatively tight map design if you look at any map that isn't Derelict or Hang Em High.
>>maps with random shit piled everywhere for seemingly no reason
Like what? Again, later games have this except worse.
>>bland textures and environments
It's a 2001 game trying to run at 4-player splitscreen and keep the framerate above 10.
>>map is literally just two hallways next to each other
"no."
first one was fine back in the day, pointless box canyon made for some good capture the flag, with vehicles, something only unreal had also done at the time. also red vs blue.
>grandaddy of fps
doom, quake, unreal, lightgun games? cod1? half life?
lern your gaming history OP.
>>341452856
If you think Halo's linear then you haven't played past CE's first level.
Everyone who grew up with it loved it in my experiences. I'm talking about the first one I mean, I enjoyed 1-3 and never played 4. Regardless of where it is now it'll always hold a special place in my heart.
>>341456524
>The rest is buzzword spouting nonsense and bias.
It's not, though. But thank you for at least trying.
