I agree, I wouldn't even be mad if they just replaced the Anniversary graphics entirely, they add absolutely nothing to the game other than "wow, so this is what Halo: CE would have looked like if it was a shit game made in 2011"

[@WhackyPigeon]

I would like a new anniversary for CE, especially since I think Halo CE anniversary is just plain ugly

[@MainsDude]

Its really interesting of how much it was changed. Like how The Library in Halo:CE was dark and in Anniversary it was this illuminated place. And how Guilty Spark, despite being more horrorish with its foggy swamp, became this mystical forest with its bluish hue all around and the yellow lights everywhere. And on top of that most people dont really like the change while most people love the changes in Halo 2 Anniversary.

[@elijahjarman2837]

that was my biggest complaint in Combat's anniversary graphics, too much lighting killed the atmosphere but halo 2's anniversary graphics are a complete 180; the updated visuals are amazing, but i have to take points off because the cutscenes, while nice, don't really gel with me

[@LiatKolink]

[@omgit5shawnxd]

Fun Fact, the port that we see as Halo CE Classic is actually a port of the original Game. When Halo CE FIRST came to PC it was ported by a 3rd party studio and they took short cuts and ported the game very quickly and took out a lot of original graphical designs, ambience, lighting, etc of the Original Xbox Release. So when 343 ported the game over to new consoles with the anniverseary edition, they ported a ported version of the game. So when they made the remastered edition, its actually of the non original game.

[@piratebandana0473]

That's actually so disappointing, i had always played the pc port and knowing this fact makes wonder the differences

[@RobbingHoodies]

@@piratebandana0473 they recently updated (I think this year, 2021) the MCC version of CE to correct the differences. So now CE Classic on MCC looks closer to the original Xbox Graphics. I think there's comparisons out there that we can look up.

[@cortesacrawford]

@@RobbingHoodies Yo 2nd this shit. The ce graphics we've been dealing worth were honestly a shame. The improvements in textures, lighting, and shadows have been amazing. It looks about 5 yrs newer(for a 20yr old game). There were even features that were straight up missing. Like Jackal shields were supposed to change colors as you shot them to signify they would dissappear. That's been missing since the gearbox release. It's finally back.

[@michaelandreipalon359]

Also, the OG HUD is back. And we're still waiting for the original version's sounds to come back. Pretty weird hearing the Assault Rifle and the Warthog sounding a bit too different than they were back on 2001. Either way, Gearbox Software sucks. Curse their abandonment of the Brothers in Arms games, their botched birthing of Aliens: Colonial Marines, the overratedness of the Borderlands (though some of the games have some merit), and their CEO still getting away from obvious crimes that make even the strange death of Stalin feel extremely cathartic.

Those huge empty areas in Halo 2 while out of bounds are most likely for optimization. Since these areas are not really visible to the player unless they exploit, they can just not populate these areas with models and textures to allow the game to load faster and run smoother.

[@supershadow102007]

As much as I know not a lot of ppl like the CE Anniversary graphics but honestly I liked them even if it doesn't line up with classic graphics a lot i enjoy doing playthough like I'll do one run in classic then another run in anniversary and that's another thing having that option to switch between the two while playing was a great choice

[@Albino_Basilisk]

I can get over the miss-alignment since I think it would’ve been impossible anyways without having to rework some of the classic geometry. What I’m bothered by is that the character and enemy models aren’t faithful to the original ones

[@AlejoConejo-vb8ln]

Same! I also like that it uses Halo Reach art style so you can play both back-to-back

[@sorrenblitz805]

I like them in some spots, hate them in others. Master Chief looks kinda off in Anniversary and Pillar of Autumn has all these pneumatic pump tubes everywhere that don't make much sense. The one hot take I have on it is that everybody thinks it ruins the atmosphere on 343 Guilty Spark and I disagree. It feels just as eerie in Anniversary to me as it does in Classic visuals.

[@ThaBeatConductor]

I use anniversary graphics to find ammo/grenades, then i switch back to OG.

[@sandman8993]

[@PureBrawler]

FYI the pelican out of bounds trick is easier if at the start of the level you start throwing your grenades while still seated in the pelican. The animation to get out of the pelican gets cancelled and it lifts off and flies you to a corner out of bounds and kicks you off/stays there. You can still get off at any time after the initial glitch.

I have a gameplay reason to prefer CE's original graphics to anniversary graphics. I find it harder to see Elite shields on anniversary, so back when I first started playing the game I didnt even pick up on the fact they had them, I had to be told. Original graphics its easier to see and therefore the gameplay works better

you guys should do a video comparing the Halo CE / Halo CE anniversary graphics and how Master Chief goes from hand animation in the original game to Mo-cap animation in the anniversary.

You know, the interesting part about the one in 343 Guilty Spark. Is that right when you spawn, if you spam your button to throw your grenades immediately and you throw all of them, you will actually stay seated in the pelican and you can watch it 'crash' and everything. Then you have to use your 'use' button to get out.

Yesterday I almost lost a Carbine on Halo 2 Quarantine Zone. Ik the crashed sentinel Factory where you fight flood and Sentinels, the wall in one corridor on anniversary graphics has an extra angle at the floor at 45 degrees but the classic graphics has a 90 degree angle from the wall to the floor. I briefly swapped my weapon and I dropped it into the angled wall and only found it after I switched to classic graphics

[@MBIPlays]

At: 4:49 you do realize you don't have to jump on the pelican to get outside of the map? After the cutscene just Spam the grenade button and your character will stay inside the pelican. And the pelican will land on top of the hill outside of the map.

[@Razgriz_01]

You know, they released the mod tools for Halo 1, and those mod tools have been around for a long time since the Custom Edition days. But 343i hasn't released any tools for its anniversary counterpart. Let the fans fix some of the big glaring issues anniversary has. Replace the Reach Marines with maybe H2A marines or have someone make a hid-def custom model that's a callback to the original Marine designs of Halo 1. Fix the lighting in 343 Guilty Spark Level. These are just two examples, there are a lot more to fix for Halo 1A. Halo 2A is fine in my opinion.

[@NYG5]

Nah man, ditch the reach marines and give me faithful plate armor CE marines with the grey PASGT-looking light armor. Some guy has done 2 HD high poly versions and it looks so nice, still the most iconic marine design of all.

[@odstat1949]

All I want is for them to them to fix the amount of blood, since CEA has significantly less blood than CE (Interestingly, the amount of blood seemed perfect in the demos they showed us, so I wonder what happened), the lighting, and the whole invisible wall thing. There's walls where there isn't any in og graphics, and none where there are.

[@sorrenblitz805]

It likely tanked the framerate

[@sorrenblitz805]

Usually when graphical effects are changed or removed it's because it tanked the framerate.

[@mateter5097]

Noodle made a video about the halo 1 anniversary graphics and how they are honestly really bad for a “remaster”. Constant misalignment and sometimes just completely wrong walls and areas. Also some really terrible lighting, like it’s really bright. Anniversary kind of ruins 343 guilty spark and the introduction of the flood

[@kinorris1709]

@Jfuwhgb Dnngjwo He neglects to mention something that isn't true? Tell me it isn't so. Halo CEA's graphics are so overcomplicated, and far too bright for the nighttime levels. You'd think with complex designs that they'd tleast put the effort into ensuring they'd match the geometry of the game, but it often didn't. The sound design is the only area where there aren't any stupid errors. And on top.of that, it isn't even the real Halo CE. It's based off the half assed port by Gearbox, who, being the incredibly massive idiots that they are when it comes to anything outside of Borderlands. For every minor detail CEA does semi-decently, there's several details that are done poorly. It is not an improvement when it fails to even line up textures correctly, oversaturates environments that were better left simple, and ruins the atmosphere of multiple levels. Also, Chief's suit in Anniversary is objectively uglier.

[@DGCpicturesEntertainment]

My favorite way of glitching thru map geometry on the new graphics is on The Library. If you go thru the small under hallways and jump in 1 of the areas that connect 1 hall to another, the roof is slightly higher in the old graphics. I remember the 1st time I discovered that and I was just like "Wha?"

[@thescotslair]

Alternatively on Guilty Spark you can just throw all of your grenades before you jump out of the pelican which allows you to ride out of bound easier than riding on the top.

[@everythingdigital1]

About to blow your mind on regret the elevator box glitch doesnt need boxes to be done in co-op... Kill player one or two stand in middle of elevator and delay the spawn by punching or swinging a sword. The elevator acts as a pinch when the doors close. Any way keep swinging till you see loading done then and only then at any point you wish during the ride you can move and stop swinging. The one player will spawn as the spectator camera cause the old spawn in last level is gone and he will phase through the elevator. From here you just die and respawn on them. I got a video of this explaining how it works in detail.

[@everythingdigital1]

Using this pinch and load zone bug you can find a few things some levels have broken default spots where the other player wont spawn at all and if you do another glitch you can player merge too it any way there are also some spots where the default spot is in mid air so it fails and you end up with a dead alive character. Speaking of that thanks to this bug in a player merge state you can effectively die at a load zone just right and end up dead but alive in legendary with out iron skull restarting. But without the other glitches involved you can pretty much spawn player one or two any where as a spectator cam unable to move but can punch just one time cant shoot nor use grenades'.

The reason why they don't line up is because they're in the background and no one expects you to be there so there wasn't a need to get it accurate and the games physics only respond to the classic geometry and that's why you phase through most of the levels geometry in the anniversary graphics

My biggest issue with CE:A's graphics, is how difficult it is to see enemies, compared to the OG. The character models seem to blend in with the environmental textures, and when you're swarmed, it's feels like looking for a grasshopper in a jungle. The lighting doesn't do it any favors either; it really fucks up the atmosphere, especially in darker areas like the underground bunkers of the first three levels.

Its not only in the gameplay. Some cutscenes have been retconned aswell. Two good examples are the ending cutscene of cairo station and the ending cutscene of metropolis.

Honestly I'm more bothered by the graphics changes they made to certain items. For example in CE remastered they removed the SPNKR logo as well as the little graphic telling you how two safely use it. Personally I always appreciated it especially since many real life launchers have them. Same goes for Halo 2 with the unsc crates. They used to have different labels telling you what was inside along with quantity and other specs like weight, very much like actual military crates. Sure they were full of random things that didn't make sense like field kitchens outside the entrance to the control room in the middle of a flood outbreak but they were still really cool. They replaced them with boring generic crates that have no information regarding contents.

It feels like more of a cod game whereas Halo 2 anniversary is absolutely a masterpiece. Visuals are on point and keeps the game's overall alienish tone intact. And the lighting💯💯💯👌

I still wonder how you can completely fail to understand why, 343 Guilty Spark and The Library looks the way it does in the original lol, plus the entire art style of Halo CEA is ugly in my opinion. At least Halo 2 A looks great, they enhanced OG art style instead of completely replacing it.

4:42 At the beginning of Guilty Spark you can stay in the pelican by throwing your grenades as soon as you take control of Chief, the pelican will lift off with you in it, land outside the map, and then you can explore like if you had done the jump you have to do with getting on top of the pelican like shown. Yeah you will use all of your grenades, but if you're just wanting to explore, that's not really a problem.
