Halo without the multiplayer? Is this a joke? The idiots at Bungie/343 have been failing for 10 years now and keep on doing so. These clowns could never get it right after the original, it just kept on going down hill. All they had to do is put Halo 1 multiplayer on live and they couldn’t even do that. Halo is dead!

It’s better with reach’s formula, it would be to much work to start up a whole new multiplayer engine because Halo CE didn’t even have Live multiplayer and matchmaking.

I think they are at least trying to make the classic playlist more classic through the TU, and hopefully it will play like HCE.

I agree though OP, I cannot believe the disrespect with HCe multiplayer when it truly was something special and unique not seen in todays video games. It will always be the definitive Halo in the series to me, I would play it over ANY game today if it had online capabilties.

Not sure if dumb or just trolling…

Even though HCE multiplayer would be cool. It would get boring because of OP pistol and other things I don’t care to list because they are so obvious.

Reach however is more fresh and (IMO) more better in every way than HCE multiplayer could ever be. With the title update 343 will fix (I hope) the little flaws Reach currently has.

Yes.

Lol, Halo was released 10 years ago. -Yoink-.

There is no multiplayer for a coupl’a reasons:

  1. Because it would detract from Halo Reach’s already small multiplayer population.
  2. To release a new but classic multiplayer experience would make the purpose of a TU for Reach null and void.
  3. The game would just not play as we remember it without a serious update to the engine, which people don’t want. People remember CE as the most competitive Halo, but that is simply because games were always played on LAN. This meant shots ALWAYS registered.
  4. Everyone would -Yoink!- the Magnum 24/7.
  5. Some of the maps are just not good for matchmaking; Chiron TL-34 and Derelict would both be soooooooo campy and Boarding Action would be rife with spawn-killing.

In order to make CE multiplayer work on Live, they’d have to rework the netcode for online play. Which would change how the game plays. And then you’d cry your little fanboy heart out because they changed something about your Precious, and how it’s not “how I remember it!!”
