…g, just like sprint or smart scope, which funnily doesn’t work since the tech test, so they have to find something else to be negative about. I’ve read some wild wild takes about 343i and how MS should shut them down at this point, like “cut the kangaroo’s legs” (i don’t know what that means). It’s so blatantly disgusting and reads like drunken gibberish. I’m just laughing at this whole thing. I think you can have a reasonnable take and don’t like how 343i advertising is kind of concerning and how Staten is everywhere to reassure fans. I just raised an eyebrow when he said they will launch SP and MP together at ONL, like it wasn’t before ?? But you have to actually pay attention to a game you don’t care, so… Game is launching in december. Let’s go… Let’s finish the fight, it’s just draining…

While I’m with you here, I’m a little confused

Did you mean to reply to something else? Because I’m not sure what what I was talking about has to do with your post

@Jeans

Oh ok. It just sounded like the opposite to me ! It’s why they won’t reassure people. They just can’t until the game launches.

He said this during the E3 showcase too it wasn’t a new thing, he just said both will launch this holiday instead of the release date. The fact he has already said that and then again clearly shows the SP is going to be ok. My guess was co-op and forge were having a lot of issues that made it too hard for them to fix SP issues AND co-op + forge on top.

Maybe the MP tech test brought in more bugs they didn’t see for MP on top of that too.

Sorry, yeah, I shouldn’t have replied to you, wrong thread. It’s just your post that got me thinking. I do that all the time…

And you’re name often reminds me to put my pants back on

So fair play

thats probably likely game development is messy till the end

A lot has indeed happened since the last podcast. It will be interesting to hear everyone’s thoughts now that the news has settled and we now have a firm release date.

YHMAH - Episode 26: Release Date, Campaign Co-op Delayed, & So Much More

Going live

[Mort]

Great episode again guys, you have a great dynamicisificamation as a cast.

[DeoGame (Farewell)]

Great podcast. Thank you so much for answering my question and for the great discussion. Wish I could have joined live. Just to iterate on the two questions asked:

1. My comment about hoping Halo can one day be seen as a game rather than the “carrier of the Xbox legacy” was more so in reference to how big the first party has gotten and how much more should be on offer. Halo of course should still be great and the face of the brand, but for a time and place where it’s ok for a Halo game to get a rock solid 85 without being seen as destructive to the ecosystem because it didn’t match CE’s 97. One where Halo can be delayed if needed or launch missing something like co-op without a massive backlash because co-op fans can throw in Redfall 2 for the couple months delay or there is so much coming out it’s all good (launch last year was kinda quiet). That sorta thing. I suspect that will come naturally with time between Infinite as a platform and MS’s 5 fold expension of first party capabilities.

2. When I referred to Halo as a “monster of Bungie’s making” it was entirely just on how high they set the bar, shoulders of giants, all that stuff. Tough act to follow and all that. People on /r/Halo heavily upvoted a post comparing Reach to Infinite whilst ignoring the context.

Greetings, ya rocket launcher carrying mongoose biker gang

If you could choose one classic map to be in the upcoming flight at the end of the month. Which would it be?

[Doncabesa (Jesse Norris)]

Greetings!

Two questions this time:

1. How is the bookcast coming along? Would be very fun methinks…

2. What is your least liked weapon in the Halo games? It can be the one you perform the worst with in MP, or really go out of your way to not use in the campaigns etc.

[Good_Old_Collingwood]

Hello!

if you could, what game genre would you port Halo over to?

For me, I have always thought that Xbox should team up with Koei Techmo to make a Halo Warriors game. For me, the personalities and factions in the Halo world would be great for that kind of game.

whats your hype level at for the game at this point
