I don't really want a H3 remaster, the game still looks great (except for the human faces). Instead, I just want a MCC relaunch with cross play.

Halo 15th Anniversary Teaser - Halo 3: Anniversary teased?
- Thread starter Theorry
- Start date
For me it's never been about the single player. I want to play halo 3 multiplayer again, but this time with a re-ignited population.

Appreciate it, boss. I just wanted to make clear that this wasn't a "take a cheap shot at MCC" thing. It was the first time this generation where I was legit heartbroken...
However, I too would dig the MCC port/play anywhere idea...

Although I don't like the direction 343 has taken the franchise, I gotta give it to Frank for stepping up and squashing a rumor. If only Blizzard had done the same thing when Diablo 4 rumors began circulating months before E3. Well done, Frank.
Thanks for this.
Halo 3 and 4 look and play good enough in the MCC. Just give us Reach remastered
Frankie already said no, and i don't see why people would think it was necessary to begin with.
If they were going to do it, they would have just allowed BC for Halo 1 Anniversary and Halo 4, released Halo 2 Anniversary stand alone and then worked on Halo 3 Anniversary.
The fact that Halo MCC came out shows that they felt that all the games were generally already up to par and needed no further tweaks.

It's not that I don't believe you, Frankie, but I recall there being no plans for H2A either.
So if you're not working on it, that's fine. But I won't 100℅ believe you until E3 2017 has come and gone without an announcement.
I don't care what some janitor says, Halo 3 Anniversary makes too much damn sense m'kay?
Its 10 year anniversary coincides with the launch of a new Xbox platform? Pfffftt. Halo is the most important franchise Microsoft has.
Halo HUD was basically designed for VR, and what do you know, this new Xbox platform is also made with VR in mind. How very convenient.
The best Halo is getting Anniversary treatment and I will eat Frankie's mop if I'm wrong.

I get what you mean, but I don't think it would make sense for 343i.
Future Halo games just need a Custom Game Browser with a lot more Custom Game Settings, so that you can replicate other Halo games. And I'm not just talking about a toggle for Sprint or Clamber, but stuff like individual weapon damage, rate of fire and other things. People would never have to leave the newest Halo game.
Also they are going to have a CE playlist on the 15th appareantly, but that probably won't play anything like CE.
What engine aspects are we talking about here?

Honestly, H3 anniversary after getting MCC is probably not worth it. I would much prefer a H5 expansion. Maybe a Scorpio facelift.

I recommend reading the Ballad of Hamish Beamish from Halo Fragments..
It really contextualizes the adversity that the janitor had to go through...

It's up to them to make profit. If they keep releasing games on their incredibly shitty store which no one wants to use or release incredibly buggy titles with shitty performance (which sometimes it's their owns UWP fault) then they can keep their games on the Xbox for all I care.

These guys don't even respect Halo 3 enough to fix the washed out colors on MCC, I don't want them making H3A.

Honestly, I'd take this if only to have the population bumped up again with some new patches.
Halo 3's campaign aged fairly well in the graphics department anyway.

how many people are there dreaming of a remaster to the worst halo game.
The MP has aged so poorly.
I'd love this so much.
Best campaign!

God please no, there's more than enough Halo as it is.
Instead, what they should do is 100% fix The MCC, including a 4K Scorpio patch in time for release. Plus Win10 store.
And when I say fix, I mean fix. As in 100% locked 60fps and 0 bugs across every game in the collection.
Then make it free with every new Xbox purchased for the rest of time. Redeem themselves a bit.

Fix MCC PLEASE!
I remember I bought an Xbox just for this.
Then sold it a couple weeks later. What a shitty launch for Microsofts most beloved franchise. Straight tarnish.
Then I bought another Xbox for Gears.
Except Gears 4 works.
Lmao.

Respectfully, why would they? I don't get why anyone's holding out hope for this. They didn't care enough to release a working product in the first place. The damage to the Halo brand is done, and they've got our money. Any fixes now would have only a fraction of the positive impact a fix would have closer to release, both in terms of reception and new revenue. There just isn't a business case.

Interchanging "Halo 2: Anniversary" and "MCC" in my prior response really doesn't change what I said.

Frankie if what you say is true then I'm not gonna lie... this is a major blow.
I miss classic H2/H3 style multiplayer and maps and there isn't a place to really get that because MCC is basically just a monument to Q/A's sins.

Halo 3 works fine on TMCC and wins a majority of the votes in Team Slayer and BTB.
If Halo 3 is what you want to play, you shouldn't have much difficulty doing so. Now if you're trying to play Halo CE BTB or 4v4s.. Good luck.

Halo 3 Remaster for TMCC and port to PC please
It's nice to dream...
I think you mean management sins, in rushing MCC out for release. Don't be blaming those poor Q/A bastards who very likely found everything and logged it, bust a gut to find them and then have all their work ignored because Microsoft to rush a release for xmas.
