I've never played Halo in my life, but thinking about picking up the master chief collection. Mostly just looking for another shooter to play after Doom Eternal.

The games still good to this day? And how is the multiplayer?

They fucked up the port so don't bother unless you want to get really sweaty not only mastering the old game, but also mastering the port problems

Be careful if you're getting it on PC. My roomate bought it after me and it wont even run after several updates and there are a good deal of other people reporting the same.
I still have fun with it and the playerbase is still large enough to get games at any time of day.

The PC port is buggy as hell but if you look past that it's a solid series to play through with a great story.

Multiplayer can be a blast as well.

They're literally fine, Zig Forums's just sony central so they want it to fail. Games still hold up perfectly to this day, but 1's anniversary graphics are kind of soulless.

don't buy it, the port job is terrible

Halo 3 is perfectly fine, Reach has some minor issues but is, overall, very playable.

The original experience of the games has been thoroughly fucked by 343 but the mechanics are still solid, just dont bother with H2A or halo 4 multiplayer (theyre literally the same game :/)

How is Halo 2?
I remember being outraged that they made the desert level into a forest in 1.

OP you can get OG Halo CE and Halo 2 for free, Halo 2 from the project cartographer fan project and CE because all old CD keys for it are now unlimited use lmao

It definately worth it if youve never played halo. But seriously when you play the first games campaign try not to have any distractions around for a bit. Listen to the awesome ost and let yourself feel like an invincible badass.
Also dont be an idiot and play it on legendary your first go. Play CE on normal and then switch to heroic for halo 2 once youve got a feel for the combat.
I dont like to call it slow because its not, you have to be paying attention to everything to succeed. Its more like its very deliberate and methodical. Things dont go down from 1 bullet to the shoulder.

> You mean literally ruins the intended level design, progression and environmental story telling.

>Halo 3 is perfectly fine
Not even close

A lot, lot better than 1's. Only issue I have with 2A is Blur's cutscene sound design.

Really? Doesn't seem to work for me.

At launch you could shoot looking straight down in 2 and kill people on the enemy team. I didn't even bother checking if they patched it and just skipped it

this

If you liked Eternal, you're going to be pretty disappointed.

Yes really, look around for a CD Key

Do you get an error message at all? I had to delete halo1.dll and reinstall after not touching it until halo 2 and 3 dropped. Apparently, it isn't always that specific file, but it's usually a .dll needing to be deleted from what I've seen.

It's great, but don't just play multiplayer campaign and collectibles are the shit. Basically you get infinite replay value and 700 achievemnts

Pirate it and find out

the only truly fucked port is CE but every single version of CE in existence outside of the OG xbox release is fucked anyhow (halo 3 hitreg sucks too but it still plays fine)
the rest are so minorly different at this point you need autism to notice it

The Halo 2 remake is amazing. Actually adds soul in a lot of areas.
Only downsides are the load times are shit even on an SSD and they made Miranda look like she fucks dogs

This. It astonishes me how many people here don't remember the shitshow that was the gearbox port just because "muh KB+M multiplayer".

CE: Shooting is bugged and will fire more times than you pull the trigger. This means pistol combat (the main combat in the game) is broken as accuracy is tied to how fast you press fire
Reach: All the maps are shitty 343 maps and the game is only playable in the 343 tweaked mode where they made everything in the game hyper accurate completely breaking balance
2: Don't even bother
3: Projectile travel time is fundamentally broken, bullet trails are way off and you'll occasionally fire "phantom shots" or throw "phantom grenades". It's the same across all titles but it's extremely broken in 3

One of the best commercials ever made.

i have never encountered this CE shooting bug and i play mostly CE
you may not like 343's bullshit in reach (i don't) but that doesn't make the port broken
have encountered no issues in 2 since they patched the horrendous launch bugs
3's only problem is its already bad hitreg got worse. bloodshots and phantom nades arent new to MCC though, they've always been a thing. game's still plenty playable
not gonna speak to the 4 stuff since i haven't played 4 in MCC

Then you're a low IQ retard and nobody should listen to you

halo ce, regular 2, and 3 run perfect at 144 hz. besides the 60 tick issue, whats wrong?

...

Ignore the retard on Zig Forums, they're cancerous low IQ contrarians. The games aren't nearly as buggy as they say.

what do you mean by the reach maps are 343 maps

aw cmon man, at least put a bit of effort if you're gonna shitpost
you have so much ammo from 343's constant fuckups and this is what you give me? you should be ashamed of yourself
