  • Unlike 343 Industries, those Bungie behind-scenes weren't used for marketing, they're only available in limited editions as bonus content. Most of those Bungie devs aren't working at the company anymore. 343 Industries rarely talks about development in those making-of videos, there's few explanation about anything in Halo 5 behind-the-scenes. If you want more you should watch the following sources below.

      The first step in the right direction is Doom. The modern shooter that UNDERSTANDS that it's a video game and is therefore an incredibly fun video game, instead of a "gritty and realistic" piece of shit.

      Gosh, how DARE the community try to tell 343i what they want from a game! Don't people know that 343i is the best company ever and they and their games are absolutely completely perfect? Clearly, Halo 5's story was amazing, and the players are just stupid for not understanding it.

      I'm pretty sure even casuals don't like this novelty shit. It cheepens the game so much. It reminds me of those shitty F2P games like Crossfire. I really noticed when the newest COD had dancing multicoloured robots spouting memes and dabbing. I think that's why normalfags like COD 4 so much.

      I feel it's more Microsoft than 343 though. They want more money and they will push the game in awkward ways to get it. Even if it makes the game suck. It's part of the reason Bungie left Microsoft, they were always making compromises to the game. It's a miracle Halo 1-3 were as good as they were.

      ShadowBrony I think 343 focused on fun too much and they forgot the serious bits like the story. The multiplayer which was supposed to be fun, was competitive maps. And just like that one Bungie developer said, "if you think your game is fun, it's not." You have to really think about your game and what can go, what can stay, and what needs to be implemented to make it even better.

      eM97 Halo was never meant to be on the competitive circuit. They have a thousand fps games on the market that cater to that crowed. Halo was always about the experience of the individual and made you feel apart of a community and care about the characters and have fun. It always stressed creativity and design, but now it's all about attracting more players making more money and being pretty and relevant rather than good. They bought this Game and it's rights to make money and buy a fan base, because it was a good "investment" not because they cared about it or its history and story. All I'm saying is they took the game that alot of us grew up around and used it to make a name for themselves and make money and it hurts to see something we loved gutted and replaced. It's like watching someone tear down or bulldoze a park, maybe even an arcade you spent a lot of your life around to build a mall. Most of us have just accepted that what we loved is dead and that's that. Sure we all secretly hope it isn't or that it makes a comeback into our hearts but it's just a different thing now with the same face. We are just sad, that's all.

Halo's style doesnt fit wacky skins, same as older CoD's and other games with more grim stories. that's a thing devs today don't realise, if something doesn't fit the aesthetic it doesn't belong there, end of story.
      look at games like Team Fortress 2, which started the whole craze around skins and lootboxes for the larger masses, it's made to be wacky from the start, hell it's just a mod of the Half-life 2 engine, with no great overarching story, simply "2 teams, go kill each other" so of course it fits a game like that, but ask yourself what does a pizza skin on Spartans armor give the spartan? is it going to make the battle this Spartan goes easier? is it a good camouflage? or is it just a distracting and weird thing that doesn't fit the whole style of the game?

      @kaelanirevyruun1676 Před 7 lety +30

      Yeah, Bungie made halo to be a story about a lone soldier with almost infinite luck saving humanity over and over... And they made Reach purely to help non-lore buffs to understand why it's so important when Keyes says "Cortana, all I need to know is, *did we lose them*?", at the beginning of combat evolved.
      They ended Halo 3 the way they did cos what they basically did was took the Arbiter, sent him home and then had Cortana and the Master Chief drift until (presumably) they would eventually be found by humanity and the Chief would be brought home at long last.
      The reason Bungie had the Chief say "Wake me... when you need me" was probably only in part cos then they could wrap up the story of the master chief and then lay the Halo franchise to rest, and pursue new adventures and possibilities. They didn't want Halo to become a money machine...
      343 should have taken up the story with the Arbiter instead, detailing him leaving earth and then exiting slipspace over Sanghelios all in the one cutscene, and maybe mention something along the lines of "Home... I never thought I would see it again..." And then have it skip ahead a bit and then put the player in the shoes of the Arbiter in the middle of a conversation as maybe idk, say... Lord Hood is briefing the Arbiter on a new threat to humanity, or maybe offering aid to help the arbiter reunite the Sangheli culture once more, and return it to how it was before the Covenant. Then maybe have the player go through missions, putting down terrestrial threats to the Sangheli and then skip ahead a bit to a human commander asking the Arbiter for aid in managing a new threat to humanity (The Flood maybe? Or possibly the Prometheans returning of their own volition, with the didact having been brought out of his slumber by scientists investigating a shield world (Probably Requiem again) and accidentally freeing him, and then have the next few missions or so focused around the Arbiter and some elites maybe teaming up with UNSC forces to take down the didact and ensure that this time he won't come back again.
      that's one game down... Say they want to make another, perhaps put you in the shoes of a SPARTAN IV who is sent to investigate the distress beacon of a ship thought to have faded into legend: The UNSC Spirit of Fire. you go in, boots get on the ground and then at the end of the first level, you find the crashed remains of the UNSC Forward Unto Dawn which contains the data ghost of Cortana and the still cryo frozen Chief... something happens and he gets thawed out, but the hatch won't open and the Chief can't get it open from inside. So you have to do a quicktime event to punch the glass and get him out... He asks about Cortana, and then sees that Cortana is no more, with only a data ghost of herself left in the system cos it's been so long. then he returns to earth and mourns her loss... While you and the Arbiter perhaps, or maybe other Spartans go on the offensive against the remaining forces of the Promethean army.
      you still get the "No! Cortana's dead!" moment, and find out what happened to the Master Chief... but then he's taken out for the moment from the story, and eventually returns, looking much older, and lo and behold, he is an instructor, maybe providing a mentor figure for a SPARTAN VI program...
      If I were to take a side in the current split in the Halo community... I would be on the Bungie side. Halo 4's story was cool... But Halo 5 was NOT a true halo game. They retconned their own previous game, just cos people got cranky about them taking Cortana out... She was in the middle of Rampancy, which was also in Bungie canon if I remember right... So yeah. We'll just have to see if 343 can turn everything around and revive the Halo franchise when they (eventually) come out with Halo 6.

      Twylite Fang "Wake me when you need me." When I played Halo 4 I expected Chief to be saving the galaxy in epic fashion... but all I got was a depressing story about his "humanity", with lame music, lame armor, call of duty-esque features, and although the Didact is cool.. he pretty much killed the "mystery" of the forerunners.. as far as I'm concerned Halo 4, 5,& 6 are non-canon.

It's all well and good blaming 343 for everything, but pay some attention and you'll see that the beginning of the end was with reach. Sprint, armor abilities, weapon bloom, no real rank system, shitty bland forge made maps. NO. FUCK bungie. They ruined halo forever.

      Bungie back then had talent and didn't seem to want to rape our wallets nearly as badly as 343 does. We would gladly give halo tons of money today if it was still... You know... GOOD?!?!?!?!!!! I have bought multiple copies of all the bungie halo titles. Can't say the same for 343s halo games. Haven't gotten any newer halo games since halo 4 lol. That one left a bad taste in my mouth.
      The problem is that the games are pretty "meh" under 343. Maybe not big riggs or super man 64 bad but still.... They are pretty bad especially when it comes to price. Gaming was cheaper once upon a time and wages used to be better so to see micro transaction trash like halo 5 flood the market is really just faggot shit lol.
      Don't forget guys... This is the company that sold us a 60 dollar drink coaster known as MCC. And then while failing to fix it to this very day... 343 came out to tell us that Halo 5 wouldn't suck like MCC lol. That's sad when you have to come out and tell us that your next game wont suck like your last game hahahaha.
      Here's the real funny part... Halo 5 did suck and still sucks even after updates. Shit story, codlike gameplay, weak/lack of content... especially at launch, micro transactions, and broken modes/glitches within forge, theater, and fire fight.
      The game really had a "we will fix it later with updates and patches" approach and they never really did fulfill that mind set with halo 5. The "free dlc" sounded nice but in reality it wasn't nice at all... The free DLC is just stuff that the game should have launched with.
      Clearly the game wasn't ready. They shouldn't launch a unfinished game. Makes for a bad first impression and shows that they are greedy. Also... Games that get updated can get better yeah sure... But that hardly ever happens and 343 sure as shit never seems to be able to pull it off.
      If they some how pull off a miracle and make halo 6 as good as a bungie halo game that doesn't have a super cod cloned feel to the game play, comes as a finished game, and doesn't have wallet raping... Then I will kiss 343s ass but lets get real here guys... THAT WONT HAPPEN LOL! RIP HALO! 2001- to whenever the fuck 343 started fucking shit up big time... Which is pretty much right when halo 4 launched and we got to see how crappy they truly are.

    Bungie understood that Halo didn’t need to be overly complex or over designed or “competitive” or revolutionary. It needed to be endless fun, that you can pick up and play whenever with whomever, and master the game over time while having fun. 343 saw this franchise as nothing more than shiny marketing opportunities and a money making machine.

Sadly 343 fucked it up with MCC by having us play it through their sloppy slow disorganised menu system and shit matchmaking system. It's just not the authentic complete Halo 3 experience that it should have been purely because of 343's incompetence.

Like after chief kills guilty spark and has to leave quickly, running across that bridge, chief SPRINTS in the cutscene. the only thing I could think was, "a super soldier, with cybernetic super armor, just now learned how to sprint after 3 games?" I mean it's strange that it took so long to add climb and sprint when they both felt like they belonged since the beginning. Built in boosters, better movement and sprinting is the best changes to Halo ever. 343 did plenty of horrible things to Halo but fixing the overly heavy and slow chief from 3 is not one of them.

Just like master chief failed to save humanity from the banished, 343 failed to keep Halo's popularity. Halo infinite shows how 343 took their failures to heart and learnt for the future. These failures are never gonna go away, just like how all the people who died in the war are never gonna come back, but both chief and 343 have to move forward to the future and try to turn the ship around.

    The whole problem with 343's attempts at "injecting character" into Chief is that he was never a "character" in the first place. What can you honestly say is a defining character trait in Chief? He's brave? Like Joe Staten said, he's a green suit of armor you inhabit that allows you to shoot aliens, and we loved him for it. All of his spoken dialogue is written in the perspective of the player's immediate knowledge, and current thoughts of what's happening in the world, with some occasional early 2000s "I just want to shoot shit" quippy attitude. He's a reflection of the player through and through. Without the unique connection each player develops while playing the trilogy, Chief is nothing more than a husk. So when 343 sets out to "find Chief's humanity", that means having to establish a baseline of Chief's canon personality and basically shitting on the connection people made with him in the original trilogy, with the problem being exacerbated with them choosing to heavily base all of their games on a hyper-exagerated Chief and Cortana relationship. Chief and Cortana were nothing more than battlemates, with some playfulness thrown in here and there. If Halo 4 was your first game, you'd think they were fuckin' in love.

      Halo Reach is the worst Halo game to date, no doubt about it. More content? My ass LOL. It's story was over-all the worst as well, bottom of the barrel over-all.
      Halo 4 had way more content to play and see then Reach did at all. Hell, Halo 4's forge alone was a slight improvement of Reach's, and it's custom game options were widely the same (besides some problems with the Infection game type that is)
      The only problem with Halo 4 was that it had to many similarities to Reach, causing it to over-all die. It's gameplay though was essentially Halo 2's when you get rid of all the loadouts, AA's and such.
      Halo 4 also had a wayy better story then any of the Halo games to date.
      Halo 5 improved upon Halo 4 in terms of the content, it just took 343 much longer to release all of the content over a year due to the fact that they essentially had to recreate the story from scratch a year upon release due to Microsoft's own doings, which essentially you got the story you have today.

      When people used to tell me that Reach should have been the last Halo game, I disagreed with them. I told them that 343i would create great things. How wrong I was... Rest in Peace, my former favourite franchise...

    Bungie: how can we best serve the player?
    343: how can we manipulate the player to serve us?

    You know, now that I think about it, I dont think I've ever even tried to skip a single cutscene in the original Halo trilogy.
    I never even considered how strange that was, since at the time i was the kind of player to mash every button I could during cutscenes and dialogue, but somehow the thought never even crossed my mind while playing through the campaigns. I felt like I _needed_ to see what was going to happen.
    It really goes to show just how much thought and care was put into halo by the old bungie team.

      For me the cutscenes were the reward after completing a level. I played Halo when I was pretty young so I sucked at it a lot, but getting to see Master Chief do and say cool shit was enough for me to push through all of the deaths lmao

    The original Halo trilogy is what got me into gaming, and also specifically into multiplayer. I fucking miss those days :(
