To some degree the advanced movement in 5 is also an evolution of the jetpack.

I will go out and build a gaming PC the instant MCC gets announced for PC. I need me my Halo.
I just wanna play that amazing campaign in glorious graphics.
I mean, technically Chief is in both ODST and Reach though cut scenes.
Fireteam Raven should probably be added to MCC. Chief is in the arcade game.
I really hope they allow us to push LODs out further. Halo 4s LOD transitions are kinda butt on XB1X. The higher resolutions kinda require better LOD management.
My only concern right now for this is the Windows 10 store and multiplayer. I have played both Gears Ultimate and Gears 4 recently and have been unable to find a single multiplayer match. I don't know if those games are just dead or it has something to do with my connection but I have zero issues with games on other platforms
Halo 4 and 2A still have blob rocks in the distance. I'm guessing this is an engine limitation and not a hardware one.
Yeah I honestly had no idea Halo on PC would be so well recieved tbh.
If I had one comment on the topping, it wouldn't be about the ingredients, it would be "where's the rest of it?"
No idea what the MCC was like (other than the initial outrage). Did they give each game it's own multiplayer, or did they mash it all into one?
Huh. Doesn't Gears 4 have crossplay for multiplayer matchmaking? I know it didn't at launch, but I thought they added it at some point.
The answer is yes.
There are playlists for each game, as well as playlists that mix and match various modes for various games.
I know Halo Reach was using a pretty cool LOD management system that I assume evolved into what was used in Halo 4. My hope is we at least have some settings for it, because Reach at 4k will reveal those LOD transitions very clearly lol
Considering all I heard for years from PC gamers was how Halo was a below average shooter compared to the variety on the PC, me too.
It needs sauce wtf. I love me a good vegan pizza, but dude.
At the very least, I think we're getting something today. Whether that something is the PC release, Reach being added (maybe just the campaign, like how ODST omitted Firefight), the customs browser, all of the above, or something else entirely is a different question.
So, I don't know if this has been posted in the thread (I tried searching for it), but here is a post from Stinkles in a thread on windows 10:
Maybe I am reading too much into it, but that seems like some more indication of a pc release. Link to post.

It's all brought together. With the match composer, you pick the games and game types you actually want to play and then the system will find matches that fit your criteria.
Within the match composer they also have presets that ensure the best chances for finding games quickly.
That's fine by me. Sekiro's coming out next week, so I'll have something to play for a while, and I have a massive backlog.
This more than anything gives me hope for Halo: Infinite being more responsive to the player base's desires. If they have designed Slipstream in an intelligent way, it'll make rapid changes a lot easier. Halo 2's engine, from Bungie's own developer commentary in 2007, was a legendary hot mess and to think that it was the basis of everything going forward is kind of hilarious.
I really want pizza now. But I already have a giant pork chop in the oven, and it has been sitting there for almost 2 hours getting ready. Pizza at E3, when they show Halo Infinite.
Didn't they create a new engine for Halo 4?

Interesting, could be fun if there's enough players (well, there should be if this goes cross-platform), otherwise you can guarantee the majority of those options would never get played.
I am trying really hard to remember, when was Chief in ODST? Are you referring to when you see the Prophet of Regret and In Amber Clad slip out during the opening drop?
Theres gonna be some downside:
Release is months away
Reach is incomplete (campaign only)
Very limited PC options (No FoV slider)
Pick one (or multiple lol)

It'll release the same day that Master Chief is announced as a DLC character for Smash Ultimate. S Y N E R G Y.
Campaign only for now, multiplayer later if there's sufficient demand...
343 does weekly and monthly updates to make sure games are found consistently. Since they introduced the match composer outside of the MCC insider builds, I don't think I've waited for more than a minute before finding a match, mind you for a while I was only playing CE, 2 and 2A because I was sick of 3 and didn't want to play 4.
I got The Division 2's ultimate edition. As much as I want an Apex-like release, I'm okay with a month or two.
I could see Reach being campaign only due to the way things like Invasion were setup. Also, I'm hoping they have figured out a way to handle the customization better than they did with 3/4 in MCC.
