Maybe I am just stupid, but to me it looks like CE Anniversary (from the Hang em High footage in the Bulletin) doesn’t really play like CE… The pistol is still instant hit, the reticule is bigger than the CE pistol, it’s an 8 bullet mag while CE’s was 12, and they are using bloom to try and make the same RoF (actually it seems slower than the CE Pistol)? Kids were getting 3,4,5 shots left and right, back in CE even the best of the best rarely got 3SKs. And then it seems grenades are the same ol’ Reach nades, Rocks haven’t changed (although they were pretty similar to CE rocks in the first place), Sniper is the same (while CE’s fires almost 2x as fast and the bullet travels slower), etc. It doesn’t really seem any different than the TU playlists except the pistol is a 3SK. I really hope this isn’t the finished product, as it looks far from CE-esk. If it is, I think a ZB DMR will make for better gameplay. Opinions anyone?
I mean look at this footage of CE gameplay compared to the Hang Em High video in the bulletin…
or this video; they seem to be of similar skill to the player in the CEA video; they are wasting like 12 bullets in a 1v1…
Herp a derp; mods please move this to the CEA forum -_-
that’s just the multiplayer, they remastered the campaign, and then threw in some remastered maps for a bonus, they didn’t remaster the multiplayer itself
Multiplayer is Reach modified to be like CE’s
Campaign is the exact same with new graphics and Easter Eggs (including but not limited to skulls, terminals, glitches and the original Easter Eggs)
No offense to OP but why do people always get the two confused when 343 mentioned it so many times. Campaign is the same 10 years ago. Multiplayer is Reach. Its basically what Bungie did with ODST
@Matt, Anniversary settings are not 100 percent CE due to Reach having different player models, shooting mechanics, weapon balance etc. So of course it’s not going to be the same, but it’s similar. i thought 343i cleared this up already?
The pistol in Anniversary has capped ROF similar to the Snipers. If you noticed during the video, even at close range the players didn’t fire the Magnum like in ZB or default Reach (I.E very very fast). Why? Because cap on the Mag.
Also, i am pretty sure those aren’t the final settings. There is time to tweak before and after CE:A releases :P.
I don’t believe CE pistol had such cap, you can fire that thing pretty fast. Not sure if Anniversary Mag is automatic like the CE pistol was.

Even so. The Halo CE magnum’s ROF was lower than the Reach magnum even when fired in fully automatic. they might lower the rof more just to make it more balanced. I remember shooting down banshees and destroying tanks with that magnum back in CE. Its beastly.
