How to make a solid Halo game Step 1: Don't release an unfinished game for the 3rd time in a row

[@SteadfastWL]

Don't forget coop

[@BigRascal]

Tbf halo 4 released as a full game just it was baisically cod with a halo skin. Halo 5 was released kinda like infinite, good gameplay (terrible campaign though) but they actually rolled out updates and content really quickly and it released with way more content then infinite did. However infinite was technically a full game sorta, it had multiplayer and campaign. But it didn’t have split screen or co-op campaign and it had a ton of false promises. They said the game would release with a ton of stuff that it didn’t release with. And it either didn’t get it at all or the content they promised came like a year and a half later.

[@jackaroostertoo917]

@@JerryBear712 Which they have changed

[@cl3ms08]

No no no, Slipspace Engine was a big pain in the ass for the development team. To save money, the engine was made by external contractors, "hired" for a limited period, so when it was finished, the stable Halo development team had no idea how the engine worked. And the contractors were gone, so basically no one knew how the engine worked. And boy, it worked badly. Even with the 1-year delay of the game, the game lookls good but you can feel that the development was painful. Somehow when you play the game, you can see and feel the little things that are off, showing the Slipspace Engine was terribly designed.

[@3hxde]

@marklastname1993 they literally did. apparently they are saying they fired some higher up people and changed a lot of development processes and are actually trying to focus on making the game better and bringing back what halo used to be. I'm not gonna sit here and glaze them, acting like they WILL actually do this. but this is straight from what they said themselves.

[@FunnieApple]

​@@KidGreeD14It's highly unlikely it will be a mess like Infinite. UE5 is a pretty standard development software that most Dev's use when they are starting off. It's significantly easier to master it and competently build games on it (because it has engine support by EPIC) than "Slipspace" was because that engine was a hodge podge of existing Halo structure and whatever code and building blocks and of the hundreds of contractors put into it, effectively making it almost impossible to fix. They'd have to fuck up something pretty bad to do the same on UE5. The only thing most people aren't taking into account, is that the "Halo feel" might be gone as code used by Bungie will likely be scrapped.

This is the last hop, the last stand, the very last chance to bring back Halo to life. To do so, they have to remake Halo Reach / 1 / 2 / ODST and 3. They have to bring back Halo to new Gen Z and more to make it back as a popular video game.

People don’t understand that this isn’t just about graphics. This is about performance and production. The games will be run on an engine that the studio can spend less time working on to make actually useable and more time just throwing content into. A huge problem for the studio with Slipspace is that their upgrades to Slipspace required every contracted employee to spend a lot of time learning the completely unique engine. Now they can hire people already fairly experienced with UE5 and speed production along. Maintenance will also be easier for the game because everyone has years of experience in fixing UE issues.

There's a lot good here, Pierre at the helm, multiple titles cooking, switch to UE5. Make a game that has Halo 4 & Inf's story beats, Halo INF's gameplay loop and art style, Halo 5's long term support. You do that and youll have a winner on your hands. As 343 you did all these things at different times, bring it all together and brign Halo back to the fore where it belongs.
