Damn I've been looking it up. I hate the game and its still shocking to see it so low.
Fuckin ignore me :v:
The fuck happened halfway through the chart? :v:
I can't play console Halos at all
If I sit close my eyes are incinerated by the FoV and if I sit far away I can't see because I'm nearsighted

There is a more up to date one on that site, it goes into more detail, the population has barely broken 30k in the last few months.

Oh, yeah that makes sense.

Halo 5 announced
[QUOTE=Atlascore;41182947]Football Manager 2013 has more active players than Halo 4.[/QUOTE]
Yes we established I was wrong. Thanks for ignoring the edit were I crossed it out and said I was wrong. You sure showed me.
[QUOTE=Bomimo;41180653]I don't see it. Could anyone enlighen me?[/QUOTE]
Simple. Many people like Halo for the multiplayer. Halo + Steam = Instant epicness
Workshop for Halo 1 and 2. (I don't think it'll work for 3, will it?)
[QUOTE=Altimor;41182704]I hope there's no anticheat if it's anything like Halo 2 and needs community tools/patches[/QUOTE]
Why would no anti cheat be better? I remember hearing about lots of hacks and cheating going on in H2V. (I'm not necessarily disagreeing, just wondering what your line of reasoning is on the subject)
As for the community tools, I assume you mean an SDK/Custom Edition. If so, I completely agree. Especially since I was a halo2Xbox modder back in the day(not cheating online, but fun stuff, like NPCs in MP, new guns, tweaks, etc).

Dancing around anticheats is a pain in the ass for engine mods.
[QUOTE=Simplemac3;41182562]/v/ is actually a decently reputable source if you've ever been there for any extended period of time[/QUOTE]
If you've been to /v/ for any extended period of time, you'd know how often they get these bullshit "Hey I work at __________" claims.
Not saying this story in particular is bullshit, but there isn't any reason not to doubt it.
[QUOTE=SuddenImpact;41180833]They should put powers like the crysis nanosuit has into the mjolnir powered armor.[/QUOTE]
they did it's called halo 4

What?
[QUOTE=Skyward;41183583]What?[/QUOTE]
halo 4 has lots of armor abilities and such
and they still weren't smart enough to add double tapping the jump button for the jetpack
even just toggling it with X would be ok, but nah I gotta stop aiming and hold the X button to jetpack
[QUOTE=Altimor;41183597]halo 4 has lots of armor abilities and such[/QUOTE]
Yeah, but hardly like Crysis. Plus so did Reach which was just a modified version of Equipment in 3.

Recon control layout 4 lyfe
Melee on anything but B is a sin.
Reach was decent IMO.
It made for a nice change of pace and the charachters in the singleplayer were good designed, even made me shed a tear couple of times.
But this was a few years back when I still was a Halo fan-boyish
[QUOTE=343N;41180204]Guys, the steam groups won't redirect you if you use mobile steam!
Also, the halo CE and halo 2 groups let you see the group admin (tomb) and all other members[/QUOTE]
tomb seems to be the default admin account for all games' store groups before access is given to developers (I remember him also being the admin of Duke Nukem 3D Megaton Edition and Shadow Warrior+). If he isn't a (public) admin of the Halo 3 group anymore, then it's likely that Halo 3 is closer to getting a store page than the other 2 games.
Wow this topic is popular.
I think a Halo 3 PC port would be pretty damn successful. And it'd be extra money out of something that isn't really making much anymore, so I see no reason for MS not to do it.
After all, M$
Eh, Halo Reach's story was kinda weak. I didn't care for any of the characters except Jorge. I did like how they made you FEEL like the UNSC was getting fucked at every turn though. It was good for the type of story they wanted to tell. And [sp]seeing Noble six getting fucked up by a bunch of elites like he was just a worthless grunt at the end was actually kinda harsh.[/sp]
And while people really gave the MP shit, I felt it was well done. The "loadouts" were hardly as big a deal as they were in 4. More often than not it was just picking your ability, weapons were usually the same unless it was Invasion. That and the loadout system added a lot for custom games. My biggest gripe was the map selection, and how most were ripped from the campaign. I wasn't a fan of that. But nothing forge world couldn't fix.
I'd say Reach was the best in terms of forging and custom games. 4 just shit all over it.
I still have my original Halo: Combat Evolved CD in the original box. I've played all of the Halo games except for Halo 4 and Reach, though. 2 was really fun, 3 felt too short.
Yeah I didn't realize it when I first played it, but I played it a while ago and 3's campaign was short as fuck.
Also why do people give Halo 2's campaign so much shit. It was my favorite tied with 1 and ODST.

bumper jumper
[editline]25th June 2013[/editline]
[QUOTE=synthiac;41183770]muh bumper jumper tho[/QUOTE]
ninja jumper
I tried to play bumper jumper but being so used to the same layout since 1 makes it tough to switch.
I do see the benefits though.
[QUOTE=synthiac;41183770]muh bumper jumper tho[/QUOTE]
bumper jumper is best if you use anything else you arent pro
I was way more okay with the Armour Abilities than I was with the straight up perks in Halo 4.
are they just going to use the gearbox port for halo 1 or are they going to re-port it to PC again?
That would be most pleasant.
If H3 came to PC I would be a very happy camper.
I hated Reach with a fiery passion and 4 just leaves me cold.
[QUOTE=ief014;41184015]are they just going to use the gearbox port for halo 1 or are they going to re-port it to PC again?[/QUOTE]
Gearbox did a good job porting, so I'd imagine they'd use that.
Unless they wanted to redo the netcode to be better instead of emulating system link like Gearbox did, but I [I]sincerely[/I] doubt they'd put the effort in to do that when you could just play halo 2 or 3 online instead.
