i always felt like halo 3's hit detection was off from what i remember. then again i was usually drunk or really high or both when i would play that game

I've heard that too. I personally haven't noticed anything. It's still difficult for me to snipe people like it was on the 360. There used to be an issue on H3 MCC with deadzones, but that has since been resolved. I almost forgot... they haven't added armor customization and the new Halo 4 armor, armor mods, upgrades and weapon skins.

I used to think it was off until the first time I saw a sticky fall off a master chief and then I knew it was off

Okay yeah that's a fair point, that's including plenty of buffer space for future DLC. I was thinking god drat that's big, but they're probably just hedging their bets.

Probably being similarly optimistic as thinking that people would want DLC for Spartan Ops Season 2 (and apparently one goon did! :cheeky:)

Although with the plan for free map DLC its much more likely the community will stick around.

They just announced greater specifics. The disc of the game contains 46 gigs of data, and multiplayer will require a further 9 gigs to be downloaded, with the final size at launch being 55 gigs.

I've been waiting for a couple of months to play. Now they just need to add join in progress for custom games, fix Halo CE hit detection, Halo 2 emblems (personally, I prefer callsigns instead), some voice chat things and some other minor things and the game should then be fully functional.

Also, keep lobbies together after games and full Halo 3 armor customization.

Achievements have been posted. They look somewhat easy (Lone Wolf :gonk:). At least there's no LASO or speed running achievements.

There should be a team forfeit vote option added so you can end the game if the rest of your team is booted/quits.

I'm getting an xbone just for this. Assuming it launches without major issues.

Still debating between buying it from costco, thinking I can return it if it sucks, or buying from craigslist to save some scratch

So apparently the coop isn't drop in/out? Looked in the op for a group but didn't see anything about it. What's gonna be the procedure for not playing with robots? HaloLFG again?

So I booted up MCC for the first time in over a year and it finds matches now that are still unplayable unless it's Halo 2: Anniversary or Halo 4.

Are my settings messed up or did they never actually finish the netcode / servers stuff?

Edit: just had a halo 3 game that was fine. I think it's just CE and H2 :bang:

I don't think Halo 5 will move Bones the way Halo CE sold the OG Xbox, and besides everyone will probably quit a month or two after launch again
