Yea that why Bungie left because of fans like you who just wanna recreat a game over and over anover andover must be boring for a dev and your asking for more content lol what kind of content are devs allowed to use on halo lol so silly now .
you are so stuck in the past for the wrong reason it about get ting all the best bits together not to recreat same game yes HAlo 3 was great and if you like it so much like you said go play mcc but please dont try to make halo a boring game thats just destructive .
Bungie didnât leave for the reasons you gave. Bungie wanted to be done way before Halo 3. Destiny was always on their mind and you can see references to it in the original Halo games. They only made enough Halo games to fulfill a contract to buy themselves back from Microsoft.
Again no one said Halo canât innovate. I only say it should innovate in a way that keeps it true to itself. Halo CE-3 innovated greatly from game to game without losing its identity.
You asked why Halo canât radically shift away from its roots and i told you why and backed it up with the data. Halo 4 and 5 alienated the fans who liked Halo for what it originally was which is how we got Halo Infinite.
Sounds like a limited outlook and what is your definition of being true to itself because that doese not mean anything its a game !
Halo story will change and technology evolves! A spartan has alaways had a thruster for the last 10 years its a part of Halo if you like it or not .
Who are you to say whats the Halo roots! Thruster is at the heart for 10 years what are you going on about sir. your taking the roots out of the game lol
Plants have roots before they grow up. The roots are the first thing that grows so by definition the roots of Halo were established in Halo CE-3. In no way is it possible for thrusters to be part of Haloâs roots by definition because thrusters were not there at the beginning.
Also not sure how you get 10 years.
Halo 4 came out in 2012 and is the first and only game with personalized custom loadouts. Halo 4 did have the thruster but it wasnât default and only had the side thrust mechanic just like in Infinite.
Halo 5 came out in 2015 and is the only game with the default thruster you like. It was only the primary Halo game from 2015-2021. So not 10 years and even if it was 10 years there were still 14 years before Halo 5 and 11 before Halo 4 without thrusters so thrusters are not part of Haloâs roots.
343 basically tried to fundamentally change Halo in 4 and 5 to make it âthiersâ. Well they gained a small fanbase but lost a lot of the existing fanbase because many of the changes made in Halo 4 and 5 can not coexist with the traditional Halo feel, default thrusters being one of those changes (this is proven by sales numbers and active player charts that show the longevity of the games activity community). Thats why 343 tried a return to normalcy in Infinite.
wow i guess the thruster is not allowed then ! oh well its a pick up but i still dont understand what all the fuss is about honeslty its great to have as a counter action its like why have run and then say no thruster its bogling run is not roots lol anyways i prefer thruster more than run so i guess im only a small population that feels the same .
I understand what you mean. Thrusters were fun, thats just not part of the Halo tradition and so when thrusters replace the default Halo play style then they are bad.
If you wanted a specific playlist with thrusters i could understand that but not sure the playerbase is big enough to support it. But trying to make thursters default almost everywhere like they were in Halo 5 just canât continue in future Halo content because it actively goes against classic Halo. We want 343 to build off of the Halo foundation not break the foundation and replace it with something else.
I think the best way forward for Halo is to look back at what made the most successful game in the series i.e. Halo 3 so successful and build off that. Doing so will cut away most of the changes Halo 4 and 5 brought but thats really the only way forward for Halo.
The reason clamber and sprint arenât despised as much as thrusters is because they are just visual replacements for things that were already happening.
For clamber: In older games you jumped really high. This allowed you to reach higher ledges. This was necessary as clamber didnât exist. Now that we have clamber the jump is shorter but with clamber you can reach ledges near the same height as before.
For sprint: Older games had smaller maps so when you moved slower it made maps feel bigger. Well with more players you need more map space but if you moved just as slow it would be miserable so sprint was added to help you cross maps in a similar time. Plus no one wants to go walking speed everywhere and the only other option outside of sprint and always walking is always running. Always running doesnât work in Halo because the time to kill is longer and would make fights frustrating as people would just zip past you to cover to heal.
Thrusters are fundamentally different as they add a whole new dynamic. Thats why people say thrusters arenât core to Halo but are fine with sprint and clamber.
Thats a little strong for me how can thruster break a game its beond my understanding i guess
I thought it would complement a spartan not the other way .
anyways i do apreciate your efforts but as you say you cant make me drink it lMAO
just would like to add to this is we are just talking about thruster i can understand some of the other addition made like groundstomp and spartan charge and a few others also but thruster from what i understand was very well recievd by so many in my experience anyways it was fun chatting with you and i hope i have made you kind of understand why i am making my voice heard.
Its a great addition the thruster and should be given another chance i also miss getting that reversal badge its none existent now just like many .
Thruster is not at the heart of the game! it literally was introduced in halo 4! Get with the time. If you want it as a standard equipment, play halo 4/5, itâs not rocket science buddy. You come in here thinking you have good posts even though you are practically posting this exact topic like twice a week.
Ummm⌠still a reversal badge, where are you, 2015!!!
OP raised the argument that Halo should always evolve and have subtle changes but is complaining that thruster isnât in the game as a standard spartan ability, ironic.
