Now that its just included in the PC launch it doesn't surprise me that Reach will cost money. I got ODST for free so I wasn’t aware Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stickey Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Reach should be free. What makes them think they have an actual gold product to actually sell? If the standards is the way this game originally launched, then expect to pay for something they will get around to later. Thanks 343!

I'm not sure if you're being serious, but the 360 game is BC and it was a GWG previously so it kinda should be free as an update IMO, especially since there are still issues with MCC afaik. Anyway, I'm honestly just excited to play Reach in 4k at 60-120fps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stickey Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Dead serious lol. Not sure if I'll ever give 343 a single dime after the MCC bullshit. Kind of ruined gaming for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stickey Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Lol, I was super pumped for this game to come out. All I wanted to play was H2 multi since I was super hardcore about the game back in the day. So yeah, super pumped for over a year, get the game and its broken, thought to myself, they should have it up in a few hours, hours became days, days became weeks and weeks became months. All in that time Microsoft lowed the price of the game in half, gave us "free" content to make up for the disaster, and guess what! The game is still broken and they want to sell more! No. Yes I know, the salt is deep on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nokt Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Some things from the reddit AMA https://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/b2yhk8/mcc_pc_halo_reach_and_halo_insider_ama/ - You'll have to purchase titles one by one or just wait to buy them all once the whole collection is released - FOV sliders will be a game by game basis - Shooting for unlimited cap frame rate, but no guarantees - Custom games browser is still up in the air - They are looking into "official" mods and are talking with the eldewrito team. Won't be released at launch - All Reach customization will be there, but earning that gear might change a little bit from the original release - Progress will carry over from console to PC - Dedicated servers is a "goal" - Ruffian (Crackdown 2, MCC, Crackdown 3) Splash Damage (Gears, Doom 3, Wolfenstein multiplayer) are helping develop - Planned supporting Windowed Mode, 21:9, 16:9, 16:10, 3:2, 4:3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, they're not releasing all 6 games at once...? That's f'n stupid if true and doesn't make it a "collection" of any sort minus that they'll all launch through the same .exe file. I like the idea of just buying what you want instead of needing to buy all of them, but not releasing them all at once is beyond dumb... But, I'd be skipping Halo 4 for sure if it saves me even $1 Quote - Shooting for unlimited cap frame rate, but no guarantees If there's a cap, it better be 60fps and not 30. Quote - Progress will carry over from console to PC This makes sense for the Windows Store version, but how would this work on Steam? Does/can Steam link with an XBL account?

In order to make sure that they "get this right" they are focusing one game at a time and holding "flights" (I posted a link above to join) to test the game so players can provide feedback and bugs can get squashed. Instead of making everyone wait for every single game to get tested before release you can buy the games as they become available. Starting with the chronological order of when the game occurred in the Halo timeline, so Reach > CE > 2 > 3 > 4. Considering MCC runs at (mostly) 60 I don't see why they would cap it below that. Since it requires Xbox Live on steam you'll probably have to sign into your Xbox account like in the game or something of that nature.

Super bouncing still exists somewhat, it just doesn't work how it did in the original. I haven't tried but from what I've seen you have to jump from a lot higher distances.

Spawn_of_Apathy Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 I have zero faith in any of this. Especially Reach. 343 has cucked this thing up since day one, and it’s still hot garbage. The studio should be burned to ground with the people still inside the building. It’s one franchise and they have completely failed to manage it since they took over.

Commissar SFLUFAN Posted June 10, 2019 Author Share Posted June 10, 2019 Halo Reach on PC plays pretty much like you'd expect (and that's a good thing) - PC World And while Halo Reach still looks like a 2010 game even on PC, the increased resolution and improved antialiasing certainly make it look crisper and cleaner than it ever did before. There are occasionally some muddy-looking textures, especially one close-up shot of the inside of a Warthog during the “Tempest Perimeter” intro cutscene. Those felt few and far between though, and while playing I didn’t really notice much except “Yeah, it looks a few years old now.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
