Very good point Omega.
[quote=“Revan_XVIV, post:113, topic:558511, full:true”]What Halo 5 NEEDS is a full port to Steam with modding capabilities similar to MCC. Don’t ruin MCC by adding a game that will destroy the games stability, rather release it as a standalone steam port, and maybe release some bug fixes for both the Steam AND Xbox builds.[/quote]Agreed, except that I would add that HALO 5 needs split-screen added, and this needs to include cross-platform CO-OP. However, with the recent staffing reductions at Microsoft in mind, I’d rather they focused on getting all the games in MCC working cross-platform for all modes (including split-screen CO-OP on any consoles involved, and on PC too if you have a supremely powerful PC with multiple monitors connected) first.
The one thing you could do to ‘include’ HALO 5 in MCC is to include HALO 5 in the digital license, ie. if you buy (or have previously purchased) the Master Chief Collection bundle for XBOX on the MS Store then you get to download and run HALO 5 on your XBOX without the game disc and if you buy\already-have the MCC bundle on the Steam store you would be able to download and play HALO 5. In both cases HALO 5 would remain a separate install with no actual in-game integration with MCC - essentially it just means you have already paid for MCC you don’t need to pay extra for HALO 5. Or you could have it included, as a play-anywhere game, if you have already bought HALO 5 instead of including it in MCC.

I like this idea… I mean we know 343 would never do it as they actually want to make sales money off of Halo 5., but it is a good idea.

Bring back the missing fileshare and theatre mode features!
I also want to add that it wouldn’t be a great idea to add it due to how far it detracts from the past halos. this isn’t me being a purist or “it ain’t halo” kind of view. halo CE through halo 4 have almost similar sandbox and controls. 5’s sandbox incorporates advance movement, which would be jaring if you went from a match of H3 and then to H5. furthermore you also have the Req system for warzone. how might exactly would you incorporate this system into MCC which 343 has stated will not put micro in it.
then ofc there’s the points that @Revan_XVIV has stated, where the stability would just tank and the UI is jank. AND the fact that the size would double (and yes you can DL each game individually, but H5 alone is either almost or a little over 100GB). and for the gazillionth time, 343 said they wont add it to MCC
…tho “technically” they did. i forget which menu it is in, but I believe if you go into extras, there is a button that takes you over to Halo 5, which is above the button that takes you over to infinite…so like Technically its in already?? lol
what you would really want is, and I’m gonna say it yet again, rehaul halo 5 much like they did with MCC. let us not forget that customization at launch was on par with CE. yes CE, you were only able to change your colors and armor SET, meaning no visors, no different armor pieces, no weapon or vehicle skins, no effects. nothing. just the color and the set. and also the fact that Reach was added 5 years later which btw MCC’s first idea was a collection of games with Chief in it, with ODST as a paid add on. and I believe it took the community to pressure them into adding reach. might be wrong on that, but i remember something like that was the reason i never got into playing MCC cause i was a reach baby. now look at it (besides the stability issues), its was the go to halo game prior to infinite and id argue, after infinite (again besides the stability issues). 5 would go farther if they took time to rehaul everything. as in fleshed out customization, progression, stability, matchmaking, etc.
frankly nowadays when i see people ask for MCC i wanna ask…why?

Is this the right time to point out that another glaring issue with Halo 5 is the whole “no split-screen” thing?

oh yeah theres that too. i cant believe I’m saying this but i actually forgot about that lol.
so now lets add the fact they have to implement split screen into the game when they port it over to MCC (still has to be a thing when they rehaul it too tho).

Not really. I play super fiesta with only sprint, no thrusters and no slide distance regularly.
That’s an easy fix, make req items unlimited use and make it so you have to complete challenges to unlock them.
Thanks for the shoutout 
This ^
Personally I wouldn’t mind just a full port of 5 to PC as is and then for 343 to give all versions of H5 some stability fixes, but I am vehemently against adding Halo 5 to MCC.

Fair Fair. thb they could have a setting in search labeled “disabled AM” to turn all that off :o
Oh I know. I think you’re idea and my Idea on fixing it are pretty good (mine was adding making them a cooldown + limited uses depending on the rarity)
np for some reason I always seem to message on the same posts as you lol

In custom games they do, you can turn off both sprint and thrusters, and disabling sprint disables sliding.
I don’t know why people in this community are so hellbent on H5 being added to MCC despite it clearly not being a good idea stability wise.

I wanna know that too. I only hear “it be cool” or “they gotta add it” but never why they should add it. it prolly be “well so everything is in one spot” or “because its the next step” which isn’t really good reasons. MCC was really made just to port every main halo game thats not on the One.

Not even every main Halo game, just port the 360 titles to the newer generation.

was gonna say no, but you are technically right; they ported CEA instead of the OG, and H2A was made specifically for MCC…wow x.x

Please make some kind of mechanism to remove people that keep betraying in custom game browser. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve tried to play Desert Bus capture the flag and the entire game is ruined by people betraying. Reporting them seems to do nothing. You should make some kind of mechanism where they get banned if they betray 3 times in a row or 3 times within a certain timeframe. Dumb trolls shouldn’t be able to ruin the entire game for people actually trying to play and have fun.
