PC request mega thread

Games Halo: The Master Chief Collection
1

I figured it would be a good idea to keep the whole bring it to PC request/debate in one place. So if you want to see the game come to PC please post here.

my personal take on the issue. Give it time for a proper port. I’ve seen a lot of people going “give it a year” which i agree with, though not for the same reason as most of those people. If the game is going to come to PC than it needs to be done right, and there’s a lot of stuff that needs to get done.
-extensive bug testing(4 games in 1 needs a lot of testing, especially on PC)
-optimizations
-upgrading the maximum resolution and frame rate(currently it’s 1080p and 60FPS)
-incorporate proper graphics and control options
-set up multilayer servers, and create the option for people to host their own servers(also direct IP connect)
-cross platform play, even if only something you can do privately
-maybe some extra DX features if possible that only PC’s could handle.

Although I’m against a PC release for now, I do have a question.

How would cross-platform play work? Live for Windows is being shut down and unless they plan on making it a Windows 8 only release, I don’t see how people are going to be able to play cross-platform otherwise.

according to a gamespot article(can’t give a link right now since I’m on a tablet) cross platform play is possible, and Microsoft released a statement saying they work closely with devs interested in that. So it can be done.

I kind of feel like this is a petition thread. Which really isn’t needed as frankie already didn’t turn down the idea of a PC release. “has to be the right product for the right time.”

I already thought they wouldn’t do H2A and they did that and more so i have no doubt at some point there will be a release to PC. But it probably won’t happen for a very long time. They need to finish MCC and halo 5.

Please, explain your self, what do you mean by “For Now”?

> How would cross-platform play work? Live for Windows is being shut down and unless they plan on making it a Windows 8 only release, I don’t see how people are going to be able to play cross-platform otherwise.

Cross platform play is possible, but if Microsoft pulled the H2V move again, then for all we’ll know is for years AFTER that game’s release, you’ll have Microsoft acting as if there’s no fans on the PC, and the Halo community who mostly play on the Xbox thinking that there’s no fans on the PC, and we’ll be right back where we started. Granted I don’t mind the idea of Microsoft using Halo to try selling their OSs, BUT they need to do one of two things: #1 make an OS that EVERYONE will be willing to upgrade to, and not think of it as Vista 3.0, and actually make it much more accepted among the vets and the newer user base. #2 have it designed that the only way you can play cross platform, and have some extra functionality that can only be obtained from playing on Windows 8 (IE Touch Screen controls), BUT have release it on Windows 7 and newer.

> I kind of feel like this is a petition thread.

WHERE in OP’s post did it say the word “Petition”!? NO WHERE, so NO, this is a petition thread.

> Which really isn’t needed as frankie already didn’t turn down the idea of a PC release.

You’re right, BUT that doesn’t mean we can’t post threads like this stating what we wish could be. I remember hearing about an artical where Frankie said there wasn’t going to be a Halo 2 Anniversary, and YET people still posted threads about it, requesting it, and here we are today, with a Halo 2 Anniversary game on the horizon, so, this thread “really isn’t needed” is only half true, but if we just left him to it, he might as well use it as a “I’ll do it next year” excuse and put it off, and forget about it. These kinds of threads keeps it at the top of his mind.

> “has to be the right product for the right time.”

I personally HATE that statement right there, because it’s full of unknowns that might as well be “We’re not going to do anything” or “No, no, no, no, no, no, no, don’t want to do it” What is the right product? another Mobileish game like Spartan Assault? And when is the right time? another 7 to 15+ years before they start saying “Yes, we’ll start drawing up some ideas”? Yes, at face value that statement doesn’t say no, but at the same time, it doesn’t say yes.

> But it probably won’t happen for a very long time. They need to finish MCC and halo 5.

Now, there is the problem that some, if not most of us have, that “Very long time”, for a very long time, we haven’t heard anything about a PC release, and it’s only been with 343i that we’ve had any luck of getting a Halo game on the PC. But Xbox Players, they KNOW they’re going to get a Halo 5, they KNOW they’re going to get a Halo 6, and now they KNOW they’re getting Halo CE - 4 on the Xbox One. PC players, We don’t know anything other than Frankie has said “has to be the right product for the right time”. And to me, at this rate, Halo on the PC is becoming Half Life 2 Episode 3/Half Life 3.

> They need to finish MCC and halo 5.

I’m questioning this, MOSTLY because I don’t want them to wait until AFTER Halo 5’s release for them to come out and announce a Halo PC title, I would like them to at least either announce it with in the next few months that they’re working on a release, give PC players something to look forward to. But, if they’re going to port MCC to the PC, I say they should announce it around 6 months after the Xbox One release, and then release it around the time Halo 5 does. Because at that point, Halo MCC isn’t selling Xbox One’s, Halo 5 is.

Read the bulletin this week. It says they are concerned with pushing out MCC on X1. After that, you can ask them to consider their viewpoint.
Sorry mate, but for the foreseeable future, it’s not happening. I’m not against it happening, I’m no exclusive purist guy, but for now, it may be better to wait.

I’d rather them finish the current projects before working on a PC release, which they haven’t even started yet. Granted the Xbox One uses the same architecture as PC’s do, I see them finishing Halo:MCC on Xbox One and finishing their touch-ups on the Halo 5 beta, following the feedback and finishing Halo 5. After all that, go start working on a PC port for MCC. But as of right now, I don’t see it happening until around 2016.

That’s what I meant by for now. There’s other stuff they’re working on and I don’t wanna see any push-backs on the release dates. Just my opinion though. I just don’t see a PC release at the same time as the Xbox One release. It will probably happen after the above has been done.

But a port does not require a full team, you would need some coders and testers yes, but besides that not much. Even if that did delay halo 5 by a little, that’s a good thing. that means QA has more time to find bugs and level designers can go over and revamp levels to be more interesting, maybe even add some more multiplayer ones.

plus, a port might not even need 343 to get directly involved at all and take time away from Halo 5. They could probably get Saber to create a PC port after the game is finalized. Maybe even get Skybox labs(they’ve been updating the old ensamble RTS’s and releasing them on steam) to do a port. and for anyone who doesn’t know Ensamble RTS’s are microsoft games.

@weird.

Dude no need to be hostile.

1)I said it FEELS. Please tell me you know what feels means.
2)It’s probably logical to assume when frankie denied H2A that they wanted to make the actual drop epic when revealed. Which it did. I don’t think people smashing the forums daily screaming “we need H2A!” got them to make it. this isn’t even where 343 members post frequently and certainly isn’t the only halo related forum site.
3)So basically you hate anticipation? there is merit behind waiting for the right time. There is merit behind being cryptic. It’s annoying and frustrating but much better for everyone then just spoon feeding you answers.
4)What do you expect? Halo became an exclusive for xbox a long time ago. I would have expected most halo fans to own a console for halo. The population of halo PC players that still are playing a halo PC game is small. So selling to them right now isn’t a smart move. Perhaps you should learn about proper marketing before jumping all over me.
5) I’d rather them give the proper attention on the products they are already working on then throwing out a bone to the PC crowd just to quiet them.

> Read the bulletin this week. It says they are concerned with pushing out MCC on X1. After that, you can ask them to consider their viewpoint.

I read the Bulletin, and until I hear something more concrete from them, I’m still going to roll like they have no plans, because for all I could know,after Halo MCC is released, they could come out and say “NO! We’re going to wait a few more years down the road before even thinking about a PC release!”.

> Sorry mate, but for the foreseeable future, it’s not happening. I’m not against it happening, I’m no exclusive purist guy, but for now, it may be better to wait.

And this is a problem, because as I’ve pointed out before, in this thread or another thread, Xbox Players KNOW they’re getting Halo 5, and 6, they’ve known this since before Halo 4’s release. Since Halo 2’s release, PC players know NOTHING about rather or not they’ll see another Halo PC game.

This is true, 343i’s main team is currently working on Halo 5, BUT Saber is working on Halo MCC, and if Saber finishes with MCC, and turns around and ports it to the PC, it wouldn’t be a bad idea for them, and wouldn’t require them, or 343i to wait until Halo 6, and what ever other Halo games they have planed. HELL, 343i could have the next 15 years of Halo planned out for Xbox, BUT waiting 15 years for another Halo game on the PC just isn’t something that many Halo PC fans want to hear.

Right now, I get the feeling that EVERYONE on these forums just flat out hate loath PC players, and the idea of Halo on the PC, and the more I hear “products they are already working on then throwing out a bone to the PC crowd just to quiet them” and “I’d rather them finish the current projects before working on a PC release, which they haven’t even started yet” the more it feels like everyone wants 343i to wait another 10+ years just for them to turn around and say no, or “maybe when it’s the right time”, which honestly has been the biggest thorn in my side. You guys do realize that after Halo 5 is released, they’ll be working on Halo 6, and so on, Halo isn’t going to end until Microsoft says so, and I bet you that after each game, you’ll have the exact same threads, asking for more Halo games on the PC, and you’ll have people who respond with “Let 343i finish with the current and planed projects first”.

Okay, maybe Halo PC is never going to happen, maybe it’s worse than Half Life 3, maybe it’s just a myth, maybe I should spend my time and energy chasing big foot and getting the general public to agree that big foot is real, than trying get both the Halo community AND it’s developers to actually acknowledge Halo PC and it’s player/fan base, and actually release more Halo games on the PC. Because it’s obvious to me, that no matter how many posts, how many words, excuses, theories, ideas, concepts, and/or points I make, there’ll always be someone who has the “Xbox comes first, PC players can go F**K them selves” state of mind.

Halo is an Xbox exclusive, I realize that, I’m not stupid, I can read, and I’ve known this since day one. BUT no matter how many times people say it, Halo CE and Halo 2 on the PC leave me questioning, what’s the point of releasing those titles? to give in to demands of the players? Is that how Bungie, 343i, and Microsoft do things? give in to Demand?

So I guess I feel that the concept of Halo on the PC is over with, because based on the feelings I’m getting from everyone, and from statement from 343i, it’s not going to happen.

So, someone please explain to me WHY do I keep on posting, trying to change people’s minds? To try to get another Halo game on the PC?

neither halo 1 or 2 on PC’s population is representative of a modern halo games sales. I think in another thread someone said there were like 3,000 people on CE’s multiplayer right now. Spartan Assault on steam has at least 50,000 copies sold (I can tell with the leaderboards), and that’s just an extremely small spin off game.

As I said elsewhere, it’s absurdly simple; hire a third-party developer to make the port, just like Microsoft did for CE back in 2003 when they hired Gearbox to port it to PC.

Also, all Frankie’s statement really means is that they don’t ever plan to make Halo for PC, but also don’t want to flat-out say “you’re history” to a sizable fan base.

I understand where you’re coming from, I do. The thing is, there’s a lot of games on PC that are never coming to consoles, but you don’t see me constantly requesting them to make a console version either. As I said in a previous topic, if you really want something that’s exclusive, then you have to go out of your comfort zone to play it.

I can’t help but feel this is a “PC MASTER RACE” issue, which I never understood in the first place. I understand graphics and custom controls and mods are important features in PC gaming, but there’s some problems in PC Gaming too. (Which I refuse to mention since it’s all already been mentioned so many times already on this board already.)

In short, I don’t hate PC gamers. It’s usually the other way around. I’m just not a fan of the PC elitism/fanboyism that goes around so often without any thought or logic into exclusivity and console sales and PC gaming issues.

But I’m out. I voiced my opinion and whether it’s agreeable or not, at least it’s out there.

You misunderstand me.
I want a PC version, a lot more than any console. Then all my friends who don’t even own a console and miss halo could play with me. I want it just as much as the rest of you, maybe a bit less. I’m just saying, if you pester someone, usually you don’t get a response that satisfies. I speak from real life experience, having 7 brothers. There are always exceptions, of course, but that is what I have observed.
That being said, you need no argument to put me on the bandwagon. I’m simply looking at this from a realists point of view.
I still support your efforts for PC titles such as this.

But it’s not a “PC MASTER RACE” issue for me or a lot of Halo PC proponents at all. For me, it’s just this- I have a Windows PC, I don’t have an Xbox 360 or Xbox One, and I love Halo. Simple as that.
The attitude I’ve actually detected most on forums is predominantly that of an offended “XBOX MASTER RACE”. What I keep hearing, over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again, is “Halo is only meant for us privileged Xbox fanboys and us alone; it always has been, it always will be, and you pathetic PC whiners should suck it up and go fork over $499 for a console you don’t want to play the games you want. Never mind that the only full Halo game you PC gamers have gotten in seven years is being shut down, and we’ve had our fun for a long time now.”

Why is it so terrible for someone to want to get to finally enjoy a few games that Xbox gamers have been enjoying for years and years? Why do Xbox fanboys have to be so venomous about Windows gamers asking 343 to give them a few ports of old games? Why?

16

> I’m just saying, if you pester someone, usually you don’t get a response that satisfies.

I get what you’re saying, BUT as the same time, from my training in the military, if you don’t pester someone, you get put on the back burner and forgotten about. Which, I’ve had to deal with a lot. And you really can’t tell with a person until you either get the unwanted response, or you get the response that you want. But my aim isn’t to pester 343i, and cause them to say no, my aim to keep the PC community in mind, not on the back burner, not in the back of their minds, not a side note. I want 343i to be more proactive and aware of the PC community, and generally be more talkative with the community as a whole PC included. I also want to get the rest of the community to be more aware of PC gamers, and realize that the key to everyone getting along is realizing who all is here, and that we all have a single factor that all of us have in common, and that’s that we are Halo fans, and we are passionate of Halo. That is the message I’m trying to get through to people. I am VERY passionate when it comes to Halo, and more so for PC than Xbox, but I don’t forget about Xbox, nor do I try to treat them any different than PC.

i don’t think creating countless threads everytime a halo game
is announced would get you closer to your PC halo game.
they’re not stupid, they’re a company. it’s a part of their job
to remember things like this. but it is an undeniable fact,
that if you’re a console-exclusive company & want to take a step
on another console OR the PC, it takes YEARS of preparation & calculation.
one can not just copy & paste stuff or simply hire another company
to make it happen.

besides that, you can’t comparing the production of a PC-halo game
almost ten years ago and the production of a PC halo game right now.
the gaming-industry is changing all the time.

and like i said, for 343i, there are simply right now too many unknowns
for even the considering of planing for a port of a halo game.
i know this fact will piss off a lot of people, but you can’t & you won’t change it.
they won’t think about it any more & won’t plan & work on a pc port any faster
just because there are every two days new topics about a pc-game request created.
like i said, they are not stupid, they won’t forget about the pc-community
if you stop creating topics. and like some other person in another thread like this already precisely stated, all threads like this do, is starting unnecessary
& informal discussions of the pro’s & contra’s of a pc-release,
nobody’s winning anything, neither pc-community nor the xbox-only-community.
people need to realize this, on “both sides”.
the pc community needs to realize that they won’t get a pc game sooner,
just because they create multiple topics to compensate their frustration for the lack of a pc game and the xbox-community has to realize that in some time 343i maybe will take the step and release a major halo game on a pc.
and both sides need also to realize, that it is not to us, if one or the another
will happen.

Halo is their franchise, they are the producers of the Halo Games,
they are in charge of what will happen, if it happens & when it will happen.
they are not Bungie, which already over 10 years experience in the
gaming industry, when halo cam out, they’re brand new & all they’ve already released is Halo 4 and Halo Spartan Assault.
They need time to establish themselfes. i mentioned it already in a similiar
thread like this, the production of a pc game is not easy, there are a lot
of things they have to prepare, calculate, plan, care & watch over.
that’s also the reason, why they’re not making any specific announcements,
they simply can’t. or would you approve it, if they for example announce
H5G for mid 2016 for PC just to hear in a year that it didn’t work out
& to get your hopes blown up like a sticky nade ? probably not.

all i’m trying to say is, give them time & let them do.
have some trust in a new company.

Guys the whole reason I made this thread is so we don’t have to deal with 2 new threads a day about this topic. And maybe this won’t make 343 come out with a PC halo faster, but it certainly is going to be a constant reminder that there is demand.

@Smok. No, making a PC game is not that hard of an undertaking, especially if they got Saber to do it, if it was we wouldn’t have a bajilion multiplatform games in this industry. All it comes down to is making the necessary changes, testing, and than releasing the game. Being an established developer has jack to do with it, and I’d also like to point out that most of 343 is industry veterans.
