No FPS is better on console. Period.

Good thing you can plug in your controller to the PC to make it a console if you really want to.

They'll have no excuse to half-a** H3A if they ever do it. There won't be any other games to hide behind and (pretend to) work on like in MCC, and now that H2A basically raised the bar as to what to expect from a Halo remaster, I expect H3A to have at least remastered/classic version of campaign and multiplayer with a forge even better than Halo 5's for the remastered multiplayer.

But I'm not holding my breath.

I expect Halo 3 to have a rewritten classic forge engine that adds in all the features from reach. Maybe magnets for good measure.

Why would you want to throw away the precision of using your mouse, and the plethora of keyboard options to hold a crappy little controller thats only fit for throwing at plasma screens?

Ahh! sorry Mootjuh I just saw the ' If you wanted to'. Phew for a moment there I thought you were serious my bad there.

Why just reach? What about all the good features from H4, H2A, and H5? Although 343 probably won't do it "cuz legacy code". That was one of their more prominent excuses for not being able to get MCC's multiplayer working for the older games. I don't buy it for one second though, or else stuff like Custom Edition and Halo Online/eldewrito wouldn't be a thing.

Those can come in too if they see fit but not H5's stuff. In order to add the stuff they have they've convoluted forge and it's very different. It's now an in-game map editor, rather than an in-game mode where you can build stuff. There won't be any kids who enter a game together and each try to build a base before throwing all the power weapons into it and having a battle between them. If you don't have a manual by your side you won't be able to figure anything out by looking at the controls either.

It isn't really bad, but it fundamentally changes what forge is to people. Some people will find the changes welcome, but it isn't for messing around anymore. It's for map making, and only map making. Halo 3's forge is kind of the opposite. You can't really make maps, unless you try really hard and spend forever on it. You just join a game with friends and spawn in weapons and vehicles and scenery, maybe move some of the objects to change where the bases are. It's a game mode with a unique twist. It could benefit from Reach's improvements, and 4's and H2A's, but don't drag H5 into this. It doesn't belong.

Too bad the other peeps have Mouse and keyboard and will obviously destroy you

Also the only reason I have no problem with Halo being an Xbox flagship title is that I prefer the
Xbox community as opposed to the PC community not trying to be rude but yeah I just dislike the mentality of the mass majority of
PC gamers granted i'm probably over generalizing but from my experience it's not, you dig?!

fun fact, was playing HCE with my friend. Was dominating them, and then all of a sudden I started getting rekt. asked at the end what they did, turns out they plugged in their controller and used it instead.

It varies from person to person when it comes to their comfortability between the keyboard and controller. Do not underestimate your opponent

Fair enough, Shit won't fly in any CS / cod4 promod / quake / any precision pc fps tho

by **R93_Sniper** January 9th 2016, 11:57 pm

Again, depends on the user, but yes I agree for the most part

Sometime people prefer the disadvantge because it makes it more fun that way.
Then you have wierdos like me who can't aim at things with the mouse because I played laggy Halo 1 for so long I instinctively lead when aiming at the enemy, which is just a straight up miss in modern games. So I plug in the controller because mentally I switch to aiming correctly. :/

THUMBS UP !
Dat is why I like HALO better on the consoles. I'm better with controllers than and everybody using the controller levels up gameplay for me but with Kb/Mouse.. I pretty much get rekt everytime :/

by **R93_Sniper** January 10th 2016, 4:38 am

Take your controller and plug it into your computer, done deal. Neesy is right about games not playing better on consoles, but the controller vs keyboard input is something completely different.

Edit: did you REALLY change my name to "Snayper" in that quote? really?

by Abdul Fatir January 10th 2016, 7:41 am

Yes, i can do that
But when everybody's playing with controllers, the battlefield gets leveled. If everybody's using kb/mouse and me a controller, i have a disadvantage.. even if i'm good at it
.
lol yeah "Snayper" sounds better :D

by Neesy January 10th 2016, 10:01 am

Or someone could just plug in their scuff and shoot a BR / DMR faster than you can.
