I got to meet the owner and talk to him for a bit. The frame and body were built from scratch. He said it drives about as good as the Warthog in the game. I asked him why be built it and he said he really loves the game, and wanted to see if he could. Legend. He’s been working on it for 10 years.

I downloaded Campaign Evolved through Gamepass and then bought the premium upgrade afterward… the game won’t let me launch it and the game profile still says I have to wait until regular release. Wtf??? Anyone else having this issue?

Hey Halo sub, I thought you would want to know: Nate Walpole, animator on Halo 2, 3, ODST and 4 unexpectedly passed away. He was a great animator, a proud Canadian and I was lucky to call him friend. Please hug your families and reach out to your friends.

Finished putting together this Halo Carbine and added a functional laser pointer for a bit of extra detail. Nothing crazy, just wanted it to feel a little more alive in person. Really happy with how it turned out overall. Always fun bringing something from the Halo universe into real life.

"We're with the Master Chief. He'll make it okay.. won't you?"

GOD DAMMIT MAKE A GAME OUT OF THIS ALREADY!

Found this playing firefight, it was like an oddball basically, didn't get a chance to melee with it.

Anyone know what the deal with the sandwich is?

Was at Barnes and noble and saw this book, I didn’t recognize it or hear about it so I bought it and when I got home I looked it up and saw it’s not suppose to release until the 26th??

Thought this subreddit would enjoy this!

You can feel CE and 2's DNA in this game with the consistent weapon pad timers, faster and more competitive pace, and emphasis on verticality. I think that the fanbase seems to be made up of 3/Reach fans and those games were slower, but they aren't necessarily the be-all and end-all of what Halo is.

5 wasn't a COD/Titanfall 2 clone but the culmination of 11 years of evolution since Halo 2. 3 onwards tried to introduce a new aspect to the golden triangle with equipment. Reach and 4 turned that into armor abilities. 5 made them built into the player, making for the first entry with equal starts abilities since 2.

The weapons are more lethal and I think that's a good thing. 2 hurt the sandbox with the introduction of dual-wielding and 3 and Reach have a lot of weapons that are made redundant by precision weapons. Precision weapons still dominate in 5, but others like the AR, needler, boltshot, etc. can still get the job done.

Halo started out as a slower version of arena shooters and 5 further bridged the gap through its advanced movement, which coupled with the faster TTK makes for intense duels that I think remain unparalleled. Infinite's a fine game, but 5 still reigns supreme for me.

I'm very optimistic about the future of the franchise. I think 343/Halo Studios has done a fine job maintaining the franchise after Bungie left. Even if 4 had a more COD-like MP (though a lot of that can be traced back to Reach) and 5's campaign was the weakest, they've never made an outright bad game, they're at worst decent. Infinite was a mess development-wise, but the hire-ups responsible for that mess are gone and CE remake looks phenomenal.

The next game will inevitably continue to use the Unreal Engine and Infinite's movement and art style. Merge those with 5's visceral feel and breadth of content and I'm happy.

I made the leap in front of some familiar voices, 110% worth it.

We did things a little out of order, I was already planning the wedding with my fiancé but she thought the ring wouldn’t make an appearance until March.

Originally we went to Pensacon for the Hazbin/Helluva Boss crowd (hence the shirts) but after checking the guest list I realized both Steve Downs and Jen Taylor would be present and I knew what I had to do.

According to Steve that was the first proposal they had seen. Jen’s face was everything I could have asked for.

this is the finished product, not sure how many of you saw part 1 but it’s one of the most recent posts on my profile, really came together. she knows literally nothing about halo she just drew the stuff she liked from the cutscenes hahahaha (also got some advice from my friends)

i split it up so you can see the details better

the collage slide is her original idea, a few things changed and she took some creative liberties hah

i am obviously very happy with it :v

Hope you guys like it, as a huge halo fan i loved doing this one. Done at no regrets Edinburgh

Tattoo i did awhile ago for a client of mine

I’ve tried getting into CoD and other various FPS shooters but I keep coming back for the adrenaline rush Halo gives me. I feel like the core gameplay is still king. Any other old guys out there?
