343 industries said they were going to bring back the classic experience, yet all I see is blood coming out of my eyes instead of the tears of sadness that would normally come out, because they screwed up. But its alright for their first time, but they can do much blaming better.
They said they were going to bring back the old experience, and its hard to do that when all the weapons that had bloom still have bloom, even when they said they were going to have playlists with no bloom. Now we this 85% crap that need either its own playlist or some trashing. I think they should make a halo 2 and 3-ish set of playlists to replace the crap they pulled out of their -Yoinks!- and handed to us. And in the anniversary playlists the automatic weapons (AR, Plasma rifle and repeater) need a power up, because the phrase “tank beats everything” has been changed to “DMR beats everything, no matter what!”
Anniversary also needs to new invasion playlists, halo 2 and 3-ish invasion, and ce invasion.
One of the things that really bothered my about this crappy anniversary is that there’s one halo ce style playlist, 1, WTF!! Many fans were probably hoping for a classic experience delivered in a variety of playlist like ce anniversary slayer, squad, big team battle, objective, invasion, and etc. But for now its just a dream.
Help the cause, and help get the old halo experiences we know and love back! which would you rather have, what they pulled out their -Yoink-, or what they promised and what we all dreamed for.
A classic experience also didn’t have super-fuel rod banshees and Gauss hogs on headlong. I know the latter of which was included with the “default” variant included with the disc but matchmaking didn’t use that back in they day.
And I, as an ex-Halo fan, should not know more about the franchise than those who are supposed to be dedicating themselves to making Halo more awesome. But it seems the patent disregard for the game’s history and integrity that Bungie exhibited in the later years is continued here. Woopie.
Unfortunately, If 343i wanted to make the Multiplayer exactly like Halo CE, It would take too long. Instead, just took the Halo: Reach Engine as the primary Multiplayer for Anniversary. Besides, 343i has to work on Halo 4, that’s where their main focus is at. Halo CEA is just to celebrate the 10 years of Halo: Combat Evolved which started all the FPS, which we all play today.
The only disappointment with the Multiplayer part is the lack of all the Original CE maps. Probably they ran out of time to develop or the disc is nearly reaching It’s max because of the (3) Engines in that disc.
1 from the Saber Engine.
1 from the Original Halo CE to synchronize with the new Engine.
1 from the Halo: Reach Engine to power the Multiplayer.

Agreed. They should add more to the Playlists. (1) is not enough.
