Oh this game justifies my Xbox One purchase for sure. Planning to replay 1-4
Halo 2 online multiplayer was...a thing that I liked (to put it extremely mildly).
I hope they somehow keep all the stupid out of bounds stuff in a particular game setting or something. Except in ranked matches where it should, of course, be fixed. Me and my crew would spend hours climbing around Headlong and Turf and Burial Mounds and Waterworks AND EVERY MAP FUCK HALO 2 HAD SUCH GREAT MAPS GODDAMN IT FUCK.

You know what? It might feel stupid, but really it's not. It's damn amazing package for anyone even remotely interested in Halo and you'd be far from the only one taking the plunge because of this game (I know personally know many, and I know like, no people
).Besides, it's (most likely) not like there won't be other games you'll buy down the line.
I was the exact same way! After playing a few matches I would end up setting up a party and glitching, either trying to get out of the maps or super bouncing!

I finally get what's bugging me about this MC Collection. I love the new Blur cutscenes, and everything they show about the 6 remastered maps looks stunning. STUNNING.
But I wanted them to remake the SP campaign to look like the redone 6 maps. The campaign looks 'bleh'. If the entire game looked like the 6 maps, I'd have kept my xbox one and pre-ordered this game in a heartbeat.

Sanctuary looks pretty.

Really like the aesthetic on Shrine with the winding branches, looming structures and vistas, and of course the water. Will be interesting to see how the lifts and waterfalls change gameplay.
Delta Halo on the other hand looked rough with the trees especially. I'll bet the lighting and shading and whatever else are still works in progress though, so I wont get out the pitchfork.
What will probably generate the most buzz is the Halo 2[ish] universal ranking system. That's gonna be huge.
If you guys have clips or screenshots, lemme know so I can update the OP.

I did.
I hardly ever turn on my Xbox One now. But once this comes out....maaaaaan.
The amount of time I'll spend playing this and Halo 5 will make the XB1 worth every penny.

THEY FIXED THE ELITES!
Also in multiplayer they remade the models for more weapons like the pistol and the shotgun.
So much better than what the first showed and Halo 4.

Just the original. CEA is in Reach's engine.

CEA multiplayer used the Reach engine. Reach isn't in the collection.
It'll have the original CE multiplayer. The remastered Campaign is there though.

Time to update the infographic.

If I remember correctly, each individual game will have it's own ranking system like it originally had. I might be wrong though

Man, Sanctuary looked downright gorgeous. I was not expecting the map to look that good. Just three more months...

Nope, the Ranking System in The Master Chief Collection is unified across all games. It would be odd to have four different ranking systems when all the games are handled through one matchmaking system.
They showed the unified system with the Ranking in the top right corner of the Main Menu.

"Skill based ranking system exactly like Halo 2"
I think I pooped myself a little bit.

oh ya, that's for sure given. But I don't think it will be individual per game and also per playlist because that would be just a mess.
Yea that's what I was thinking... That sounds like too much.
Oh thanks!CEA multiplayer used the Reach engine. Reach isn't in the collection.

It's a very good thing. Halo CE's multiplayer is amazing.

I''m so happy Elites look like Elites again. Canonically speaking, I would have been very upset if High Charity's fleets employed Halo 4-style armor. That would have pissed me off for eternity.
On a similar topic, we finally have HD screens of Honor Guards.
