Is anyone playing this? Came out yesterday for PC (Windows 10). Has a ton of features.
Halo 5 Forge
is this no man's sky
All I fucking want is Halo 3 on PC.
Goddamn fucking Microsoft its been almost 9 years. Where's the fucking port.
But Halo 3 is the worst of the original trilogy?
It's me fucking with the environment settings
Soemone actually remade Sandtrap from scratch. Pretty cool but the custom maps seem to have glitchy shadows.
Came here to post this
...
Lol
>halo 3 anniversary comes out next year
>will probably work with windows 10
All you have to do is prolong your suicide for one year
It's so fucking glitchy it crashes literally every 2 hours or so and some gamemodes straight up don't work.
I wish I didn't have to get windows ten to use it, fine with seven
not only that but you need the anniversary update which is absolute dogshit right now
>tfw installed windows 10 on dual-boot a year ago because I was expecting them to throw their new games onto it
>i was right
why didn't they just release the whole game on PC
reeeeeee
I'd get it but I don't want that fucking virus on my computer.
Really needs a server browser
I have no friends
Think of it like Forza 6 apex. It's basically a beta test to see if the engine can work on PC without too much trouble.
They brought custom games and forge, probably to see the reception for the game and get the community growing while they fine tune the engine.
I suspect they'll port some more Halo stuff by next year and make them cost money now that this will get more people using Windows 10 and already aware of Halo coming to PC.
Oh christ it's been nearly 10 years since Halo 3, time to kill myself
I still remember getting banned for posting those leaked cutscenes
Nope. Piledriver doesn't work at all, so I can't.
>Piledriver
wat
>glitchy shadows
Bake the lighting, retard
You can't load AI units and there's no multiplayer, correct? If that's true what do you do? I suppose just navigating the environment in the highest settings you can handle could be interesting for a little while. Is there anything beyond that?
AMD CPU's (basically anything not the FX-#### series) won't work because they don't have SSE 4.1 instruction set (I don't know what this means either).
I have an 1100T/380, so although my setup barely beats the minimum requirements, I can't play it. Realistically, I can't complain too much because my CPU is 6 years old. But I am slightly disappointed. I suppose I'll play it in a year or two then when I upgrade.
I'm not the one who made any of the maps (yet), shitbird.
>no FOV slider
They're "looking into it", apparently.
Anyone up for some custom games? I'm bored.
Lol
The default FOV is 60 something right?
Yes but if you hold down whatever key is used to switch back and forth between Spartan and editor it should make the lighting better. At least that's how it works on console.
...
doesn't seem to work
I'd download it but it's fucking 37 GBs fuck that shit, same reason I didn't bother downloading Killer Instinct. These games on the Windows store are so fucking bloated.
65. It's terrible.
jej
Its a level editor
t. 3 babby
Spent like 8 hours making a map all night with a friend on the alpine map, put a bunch of trees and cover and cliffs and rocks and shit all over the place for a sniper duel type game where you only have one life and have to sneak around and snipe the other person before they snipe you. Coming from only using halo 3's forge, all the shit you can do in this one is fucking CRAZY.
the map we made is actually fun as fuck, felt like fighting the end in mgs3, one of our rounds lasted like 20 minutes
There is custom games, no matchmaking.
>promethean spartan laser
They really stopped trying with new weapons, didn't they?
There's one in the works, user. Be patient.
It's 10gb of language files and shit from the campaign you can't access as usual. They should really think about cleaning up the install.
When you can barely fit 10-15 games on your HD, it becomes in issue. This is part of the reason why I stopped pirating so many games. The install size is too big to make it worth my while.
That's what I thought when I started using this. I wasn't expecting much since it was free and I thought everyone shat on Halo 5, so my mind was honestly blown when I started using this.
According to reddit, you can also even put custom images onto map previews. No doubt that will be abused like Halo 3.
Phil Spencer literally said he rather put 343 to work on Halo 6, and have them port that one to PC, than port all of Halo 5.
That's a rocket launcher tard.
Some reason I can't get the anniversary update even if I check for new updates, is this still being rolled out?
>looks like spartan laser
>charges like spartan laser
>but it shoots a projectile instead of a laser!!!
how original
...
Best MP
You might have to manually download it from the official site. That's what I had to do.
>halo 3 mp better than ce
>halo 3 mp better than 2
muh minigames
Shitty netcode though, only the host doesn't have to lead his shots and would end up shitting on everyone unless some MLG party decides to pubstomp.
Halo 3 has worst campaign of the three, the slowest base movement speed. Also shitty netcode + projectile br lmao.
happened to me. I just reformatted and it wouldn't send me the update. I had to use the Media Creation Tool website to force the update - microsoft.com
The first option on the page ('Update now') will load it onto your system.
Did you upload the map? If so, what's your gamertag so I can try it.
h2 didn't have the customs guy
>h3
>worst campaign
But that's just retarded
>need to get windows 10 f
Get on making more race tracks.
>he never played tower of power
>muh forge minigames!
>waahh waahh play fat kid fat kiddddd!!!
Garbage.
Has only a couple good levels, the convenent has muh two scarabs fight which is garbage because you can just pew pew them with the hornet. Worst story of the first three, with stupid shit like miranda flying into window etc. Shitty levels like floodzone. Redone brutes are worse than they were in Halo 2.
i wish the movement didnt feel so fucking clunky. i dont remember halos movement control like you're moving through molasses.
Halo 5 has great movement m8, assuming you don't mind sprint. Only one that feels like molasses is 3.
Some of those "staple" forge minigames were disgustingly awful
like the fat kid thing or the clogged drain
i could not for the life of me do anything in terms of movement besides run linearly. i dont mind the jumping forcing me to commit to that jump arc but theres no fucking way im going to be able to do literally anything in terms of dodging. the movement doesnt feel good at all. maybe the FoV isnt helping it. ill just wait.
>mfw my friends and I designed Tower of Power.
Fucking plebs we lan'd that shit forever until we decided to spread it.
We also invented Predator.
Now remake it on Halo 5.
They're almost all trash. Sadly shitty minigame and novelty customs are still with us in Halo 5.
343 even made a community action sack playlist full of them.
What do you mean run linearly? I assume this is problem from keyboard movement vs continues stick movement.
For dodging you just side strafe, crouch, boost, or jump.
Does anyone have a lobby going? If not, I'll make one again.
It's ctrl + `
run in a straight line. crouching does not shit for dodging on KB+M, side strafing takes a good half a second to register so by the time you actually start strafing you're already getting shot to hell, when you jump you're in a very [predictable arc. boosting is literally the only option and you can do it once every 3-5 seconds or so. its a single dodge in a fight that is going to end very quickly. it doesnt feel good. it feels like whoever sees who first wins. like it always was, but with less time to do anything about it.
Is it just me or do custom levels look like shit? I downloaded a fanmade Sidewinder map and it looks like shit, even compared to the original ones. It's not even that the maker did a shitty job, but all the level editor maps look out of place.
I think you have to apply backgrounds or something, the stuff is just flat colors but the sandtrap map I played on was practically like Halo 3's somehow..
Why? We were like 15 with nothing to do. And it was a good game.
Like I'd waste my time working on shit made by a watered down company like 343. Halo died at the start of 3 and if you still play the games now you are pathetic.
The real fun was in 2 and 3. Kys if you still play Halo after it being cucked.
Does anyone want to play some custom games? Add me on Live.
I haven't played Halo in years though, not since Reach.
Is it not out in the UK, i checked the store and i says "halo 4:forge is not currently available
There's a discord channel with lots of people exchanging gamertags for their own servers
There's ~200 people in it right now
This is official remake.
CE was fun.
I still remember how excited I was when H3 was coming out. I don't think I've ever been as excited for a game, except MGSV, and we know how that went.
>microsoft.com
All i get is The error code is 0X00000005, in case you need it. "the thing that you are looking for is not here "
>o-only bungie can make a fun halo game!!! if you enjoy any others you're a cuck
most of Sup Forums is too young to have played the glory days of 2
just tried it. turned on raw inputs, made sure accel and smoothing were off. even after doing those things, mouse input has some weird shit going on, skipping pixels or something. 500 dpi, 2.0 sens, no other game I play has this problem. i knew they'd fuck up the mouse input.
microsoft.com
update using this
They should really add some texture options or something. I get they wanted people to be able to make WHATEVER they wanted, but all of them being flat colors like TF2 cp_orange kind of sucks.
I guess what else can you expect from a console game. Not like people could import textures and crap.
I'm in Ireland and I have it downloaded.
You just need win10 anniversary edition
does it have crossplay?
This
>being this delusional
Okay man sorry you couldn't enjoy the golden era of 2 and 3 where I created 4 modes still used today by 343 cucks.
(Predator, Tower of Power and Cops and Robbers).
I had fun inventing stuff and having original fun.
Enjoy your watered down sloppy seconds boi.
found a video on this issue
youtube.com
fucking damn idiot 343 cunts this is RETARD SHIT
>watered down
>the H5 map-maker has exponentially more features, tools, and props
>he's calling others delusional
I get i you don't like Halo any more but you don't have to act so retarded.
Okay keep enjoying your copies of what me and many other did before and on a better game.
Kys. Also we were like 15 max when that was cool so you should probably end your life if you still like that stuff young one.
Was anyone else able to run it at just below the minimum specs? I was able to run it on my i3-4330 8GB 750ti rig at 900p. But wasn't able to read what FPS I got since it's a UWP app and I don't know how to get an FPS overlay on it.
You talk like you're 15 now mate.
Don't resist user, you need me.
...
Is the game unoptimized?
Not giving the option to join, even on the gamercard.
