The Halo Thread V12: The Last Thread Turned Into A Bridge - Games

Almost got bronze reps done, just 25 or so to go in Commons than that one rare emblem or uncommon emblem, than its onto the decent/good stuff.

Is there any way to set a non-letterbox resolution in eldewrito now? I was kinda hoping to finally be able to use my desktop res

I think Microsoft will consider biting on bringing Halo to PC when (and if) the Eldewrito devs manage to get campaign working. [QUOTE=Bloodshot12;49629224]Is there any way to set a non-letterbox resolution in eldewrito now?

I stopped playing halo after halo 4,halo 4 never really impressed me after halo reach and I personally feel that reach was the best,has the new halo's been any better from numher 4,haven't even watched any reviews.maybe worth trying out again.?

Halo 5 is kinda confusing, because so much of it is amazing and so much of it is total ass. The campaign is very fun and beautiful, with arguably the best core gameplay the series has ever seen, but the boss fights and story are absolutely terrible. Again, the core mechanics of the multiplayer are incredible, but the map selection and game mode variation are [B]SEVERELY[/B] lacking. A lot of the maps also look extremely low quality, especially considering how beautiful most of the campaign is. Warzone is a lot of fun, even if if the REQ system is a little too RNG for some people. Luckily, 343 is slowly adding a lot of content over time, and I honestly believe that once they add all of the classic gamemodes they are missing (and hopefully more) it will be as good as it can be, because it has potential to be the best Halo ever, gameplay wise.

343 polished and gave the core gameplay a kick in the pants it's been sorely needing since Reach, and in some opinions since 3/ODST since that game just built on everything 2 introduced. But pretty much everything surrounding it seems to be the equivalent of being underbaked and not thought out well, and the campaign's promising story from before the release feels like it got entirely thrown out for something that has no idea what it's trying to do with little to no consistency or even mention to the build-up to it. I don't know how you [i]fuck up that bad[/i] unless the game got a heavy re-write at some point but they couldn't alter FIND THE TRUTH in time to compensate. That or it was pretty much borderline false advertising.

It was absolutely a Destiny-type scenario where the entire story got rewritten. Hell, even the Halo 2 Anniversary cutscene followed the storyline that Hunt the Truth promised and I'm pissed as hell we didn't get it.

[QUOTE=Neddy;49627854]devils third shit[/QUOTE] Saber doesn't run Innova, who operates the CDN that this came from. I'm also pretty sure Devil's Third Online has been up for a while, probably since the closed beta in Japan. It seems as if Innova just simply cannot stop putting unreleased/closed beta game builds up on the CDN, though. First with Halo Online, now with this. You can freely grab the files even though the game is completely unreleased. I'd say they would've kept HO up too for a while if tons of people didn't start downloading it like crazy or trying to download it (referring to the alpha build, the current build is still up). [QUOTE=Bloodshot12;49629224]Is there any way to set a non-letterbox resolution in eldewrito now? I was kinda hoping to finally be able to use my desktop res[/QUOTE] Not yet. It's in the works, we're still solving a bug or two relating to UI scaling, but you will be able to run ElDewrito and have it scale to any resolution or aspect ratio in the future. It's been tried with triple monitors, 4:3, and more. All works and scales very well. Just on more feature on the pile of features that make ElDewrito very capable of pushing your PC to the limit and running it however you like. Bungie really did a good job with their UI and it's scaling. It's surprisingly capable despite Halo 3 running at a locked resolution and aspect ratios. I say Bungie despite Saber making HO because Saber simply used the existing UI system that Bungie had in place.

After finishing 5s campaign I'm convinced I could dribble onto paper a better story, that was traaaash.

Perhaps what they envisioned was larger than the standard halo campaign length

Or it ended with the chief dying or Oni as permanent series villains and someone stepped in and went "woah woah we can't make this too good" It would explain Locke's horrible voice acting. Might even explain why he's a different guy, beyond the Jessica Jones conflict which I dont buy.

Got the French Fry Magnum. Now all I need is the Pizza AR and I can stop caring about REQ packs. [t]http://i.imgur.com/BBYBJ4T.png[/t]

[video=youtube_share;K9rI3VkAyVk]http://youtu.be/K9rI3VkAyVk[/video] I am so into this. I don't understand how someone can write off Halo 5 off as a whole when shit like this exists and shit even more extravagant can and does exist

This too [video=youtube;vCATEr78HBI]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCATEr78HBI[/video]

[media]http://imgur.com/a/5SNOO[/media] Map isn't done, shaders aren't done, textures aren't done, fog isn't here, etc. I will try to get it done on the day eldewrito 0.5.3 is out It seems I have atleast a week [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/fCVG5V0.png[/IMG]

God this is so surreal. It feels like just yesterday i was looking at some CE modders talking about how playing eldewrito was pointless as it would never get custom maps.

Still, i'll take "improper" any day over "nothing at all"

So my Eldewrito launcher has been "validating" for like 30 minutes now, what do

[QUOTE=Bathtub;49637565]So my Eldewrito launcher has been "validating" for like 30 minutes now, what do[/QUOTE] It's because you edited tags for the H3 models. Ignore it. Just play it. Next time an update comes out, though, you'll have to do some drag-and-drop.

I don't actually think my Eldewrito is up to date, does it update from the launcher or do I have to redownload?

i wish you could center the reticle without having your weapon take up 1/3 of the screen

Halo 5's forge really is amazing, though. [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-QLyt-MT4M[/media]

[QUOTE=Bathtub;49638190]i wish you could center the reticle without having your weapon take up 1/3 of the screen[/QUOTE] There's a mod out there that edits the tags so that it looks right, but I forget where I downloaded it from. It also means you can't use the launcher anymore to update the game. [t]http://i.imgur.com/OaozPur.jpg[/t]

Since Rise of the Tomb Raider came out on the Windows Store, I've realized how easy it would it would be to hack if Halo came out. It's Xbox integrated, of course, so I wonder if the ban hammer would come down on the purchase MS account. Ofc none of this matters until MS decides to give us Halo on PC

Arby's going to be a guest character for season three of Killer Insticnt, fancy that.

I wanna make a remake/ aesthetic send up to Gears of War's gridlock but with way more pathways and rooms behind the blocked off rubble in the center of the original map + enterable high rises like the buildings in Battlefield 3's Operation Metro I also have to finish my Senior thesis.
