This is the best first person shooter ever made.
>some of the best AI in any shooter: enemies can shoot, throw grenades, dodge, roll, juke, take cover, switch cover, bait and lure you, coordinate with each other, even get angry or scared. you feel like you're fighting sentient creatures with a sense of self preservation, and not just cardboard cutouts.
>enemy types, positioning and the tactics used by enemies change every time you play, meaning no firefight ever plays out the same way twice. endless replayability with skill-intensive gameplay that will challenge even veteran players and cannot be wholly memorized.
>graphics are still beautiful 20 years later with lushg landscapes and moody, chilly brutalistic architecture
>butter smooth animations, all sorts of fancy lighting and particle effects, killer music and voice acting... presentation is superb
>impressive physics system, real time rendered projectiles, enemies react realistically to being shot, insanely long object/decal permanence, tons of attention to detail
>balanced weapon system that prioritizes strategy and critical thinking (low IQ shitters who think the pistol is the only viable weapon need not apply)
>timeless multiplayer
Let me make something very clear: every game commonly said to be better than Halo CE is trash. It's almost astounding to me that somebody could call a game like Halo "baby's first FPS" while defending garbage made by id, Epic, Valve or Rare. Your average id shooter fan would get absolutely fucking raped on Legendary. Halo CE's gameplay is so incredibly cerebral compared to shit like DOOM or Quake (the allegedly "hardcore" shooters) that it isn't even funny. Halo 2 is what spawned the casual, consolebaby mountain dew and doritos culture of Halo. Not Halo CE. Halo CE is a solid gold 10/10 game that should be held amongst the likes of Super Mario 64 and Ocarina of Time. It is, in every conceivable way, a better game than anything which preceeded or succeeded it.

Nothing is without its flaws, but this is literally one level in the game and way, way overblown. Also the last few levels are great.

Halo probably had a negative influence, but I don't care. It doesn't detract from its own merits

Halo's environments are ridiculously more varied and realistic than anything in shit like DOOM which are, literally, copy pasted brown and grey cubes.

That's not inherently bad, what a stupid criticsm. By the way, you don't actually move slowly at all.

>everyone that loves halo had it as their first fps
My first shooter was DOOM 2 that I played around '96. I had also played Quake 2, Quake 3, Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, Timesplitters 2 and Unreal before ever touching Halo and I still like it more than any of those games. You are an idiot.

doom has survived on le epic reddit rip and tear memes... and mods. if people were forced to play nothing but doom's vanilla campaign over snd over, it would have been forgotten like a fart in the wind. meanwhile halo's campaign is timeless. halo is literally so good that it still inspires butthurt 20 years later even though it has a miniscule modding community and all of its appeal is built on a short campaign and a few multiplayer maps.

jesus. I like Halo, it’s one of my personal favorites, but this blind fanboyism annoys me no matter what game people are jizzing themselves over.
Halo isn’t some misunderstood masterpiece where people get filtered by aspects they think are bad because they haven’t taken the time to understand them (example: Super Metroid and people complaining the controls are slow, when they’re actually incredibly complex and responsive if a player takes the time to learn them).
The biggest complaint with Halo, the repeated level geometry in the missions in the second half, is an actual problem caused by rushed development towards the end of the project thanks to a strict deadline. It’s a problem the devs themselves have talked about wishing they could have addressed.
The repeated level geometry is a very exaggerated problem, it’s not nearly as annoying as some people make it out to be, but the game isn’t a flawless 10/10 either.

At the same time, Mario 64 and Ocarina of Time aren’t flawless 10/10 games either. Idk. This idea of a canon of 10/10 games is frustrating.
10/10 implies some kind of perfection.
Maybe “Five Star” I like better, I could call Halo, Mario 64, and Ocarina “Five Star” games, because they are some of the very best, but by the fractional rating system they’re all 9/10’s at most.

dual wielding ruined the series. CE had a nice roster of well-balanced weapons each with a niche to fill. then Halo 2 came along and basically turned the series into capeshit and introduced a bunch of stylenover substance bullshit like dual wielding. dual wielding meant every smallernweapon had to be gimped tongive you a reason to dual wield to begin with. completely ruined the magnum and then introduced the BR which was infinitely more overpowered and has plagued the series since it was introduced. they had the right idea with ODST and Halo 4, trying to go back to the roots a bit. but they could never recapture the serenity of CE's environments or the perfection of its systems.

When Halo came out, I had been heavily playing Quake for about 5 years, Quake 2 for 4 years, and Half-Life: DM (and TLC and CS) for 3 years. Not to mention Unreal Tournament for 3 years as well.

So I was used to rapid, high-speed deathmatch. I was also used to precise aiming with your mouse as a basic skill. I was also used to tight movement mechanics like strafe jumping.

In comparison, in Halo it felt like Master Chief was an obese smoker. He walks at a snails pace. The auto-aim was also super lame and took away a massive part of what I considered FPS skill.

Nah, I'm good bro. I don't need Halo here. (Yes, I have the same general complaints about GoldenEye, though I did like it better than Halo.)

do you have some kind of crooked penis? the first really level of the game ('Halo') has you explore a bug valley looking for several crashed ships. you can explore the valley and rescue the ships in whatever order you choose. another example, Silent Cartographer, is a literal island that you can explore and approach however you want. these are just a few examples. i wouldn't call Halo CE as an entire game "non-linear" but it absolutely affords greater freedom than games like Quake did. there are several open ended levels and levels with more than one route. play the game.

Halo CE is unironically the white man's shooter. I was about 11 when it came out, I was in boy scouts and I remember a few of the older guys had Xboxes and would talk about Halo or even bring their consoles/TVs to camping trips (if we were staying at a lodge at with electricity). Every single dude I ever met that liked that game ended up married, successful and happy. They were always just super friendly, clean guys. Honest, salt of the earth military men types. I was always so fucking jealous that I never had an Xbox and Halo. I finally played it when I got older and had my own money and I've loved it ever since. The whole game just oozes a positive vibe.

you don't understand how the weapons work. assault rifle is not a long range weapon, it's for mopping up groups of trash enemies in close quarters. it also depends entirely on difficulty, as you can kill an elite in like 3 sec with the AR on easy but need nearly 2 clips to do it on legendary. the pistol, sniper, rocket snd shotgun alone have insta-kill potential and that's half the weapon roster right there so you sound like you just suck at the game.

You're that one retard who replies to every single post in halo threads aren't you? You're a fucking retard with no sense of good gunplay. You don't need to make enemies bullet sponges in higher difficulties to make them threatening, which was a glaring issue even on Quake 1. No, nobody thinks of switching to the fucking starting pistol to deal more damage than an assault rifle on the average enemy you encounter from the first level onwards. You get a new weapon, you get its use-case right away to make a powerful first impression for people who first play the game on the harder difficulties.

there's nothing wrong with "hey the AR will kill shit enemies quickly but won't be the most effective weapon for a larger 1v1 encounter". you're basically sperging because the weapons have nuance instead of adhering to some retarded jack of all trades design philosophy. i would be very interested to see you play CE on legendary and how you'd fare. i imagine you would try to bruteforce everything and get frustrated, meanwhile neglecting strategies that would trivialize encounters. this would, of course, require actually learning how the weapons worked and being good at video games which... we know aren't your strong suits

2000s FPS are ALL TRASH. Growing up being blown away by the games of the 90s on PC & console, including the many great FPS, I was a hopeful seeker of new experiences thoroughly addicted, which led to a road of suffering through all the shite of the 2000s. All the time spent playing retard-tier 2000s FPS is one of my biggest gaming shames & regrets. The people championing them in this thread I assume either don't know better or are simply retarded. Something I find fascinating is there is not a single FPS in the 2000s that meets 90s gameplay standards. Just endless linear, repetitive, braindead shit. You'd think there would be one exception, but no, all the glory completely abandoned. There is but one exception that came close, and that is the Stalker games, though they're still not quite my ideal. Yet they're the only ones I consider remotely monocled of that decade, and worthy of a gaming historian's time. 90s FPS glory: -Genuine Challenge -Resource management (health, armor, ammo for 10+ guns, often minor inventory) -Non-linear level design that requires a little brainpower to navigate, as well as allows for multiple approaches. -Environmental hazards and puzzle elements -Platforming and climbing -projectile-based combat. 2000s on the other hand all hitscan hell. -Notable degree of environmental interactivity. -Huge enemy rosters with diverse behaviors, not just all human enemies and maybe a few extras if you're lucky. -Sometimes even entire optional/secret levels. -Swimming, or even freeform flying. (this is of course without going into the other side of the monocle coin with 90s realism-based tactical shooters, like System Shock, Deus Ex, Rainbow 6 or whatever).

>>10547234
Each 90s game had a twist on this formula, either small or a big twist, but retained the core standards defined by the mighty doom (for the most part).
Quite the design formula that made FPS a great genre. Prestigious. Actually demanded something from the player, moderately deep gameplay. FUN in abundance. All turned into linear shooting galleries with zero substance, graphics & realism emphasis over gameplay, laughable attempts to tell a story. To enjoy this shit you have to have a simple mind.

Certain ignorant people love to blame consoles for the decline, but that's horseshit when PC devs were largely the trend setters of the genre (Valve, id & Ion Storm were basically considered the kings), 90s console FPS were largely great too (NOT Goldeneye though it was ok at best), and there's not a single 2000s PC FPS that retained old gold standards, whether multiplatform or designed specifically for the PC. Doom 3, Half-Life 2, Unreal 2, Call of Duty, Quake 4, Bioshock, just endless SHIT.

Outside of Stalker, I cannot happily recommend a single 2000s FPS among all the trash I played. I could recommend a select few in the 7-8/10 (at best) range, but why bother when there's many better games to play?

And yes, Deus Ex is technically a 2000s game, but fuck off that game is 90s through an through, pretty much the culmination of a particular breed of 90s design standards, spent the majority of its dev time in the 90s. It's the ultimate end-game 90s game to top off the golden decade.

[Anonymous No.10547243]

>>10547239
The decline was so bad that the 2000s was Third Person Shooters's decade. There are many legit good TPS in the 2000s by comparison, before Epic games ruined it all towards the end of the decade with Gears of War. I consider them far more worthy to talk about:

Duke Nukem: Zero Hour
The Punisher
GUN
Dead Space
Max Payne
Max Payne 2
Resident Evil 4
Resident Evil 5
The Saboteur
Destroy All Humans 2
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City
Shadowgrounds
Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction
Red Dead Revolver
FF7: Dirge of Cerberus
The Suffering
The Suffering 2
Syphon Filter 2
Mafia
Mafia 2

Even the fucking 50 Cent game was more interesting than the majority of 2000s garbage FPS.

Sure some of these are rather mediocre too but 2000s TPS > 2000s FPS. FACT.

An absolute priority for peak first person gaming, then branch out from there once you have more acquired taste & understanding (Arx Fatalis, Unreal, Half-Life, Turok 1 & 2, Doom 64, Quake 2, Heretic, Descent, Ashes 2063, System Shock 1 and on and on).

Half-Life would be in the required playing list but it has a habit of making people retarded, resulting in them desiring realism, graphics, set pieces & storytelling over monocled engaging deep gameplay (this is relevant because gameplay is ~95% of most game's running time, therefore if it is shit and you enjoy it you should be questioning your life choices or reevaluating your intelligence). It is required playing because it did those things very well while still offering a *decent* gameplay experience, but not required before experiencing the real deal and gaining perspective.

Not even what I said, you knuckle-dragging chromossome burglar. Guns in shooters need to be powerful and fun to use, able to kill enemies just as fast as they can kill you with theirs, instead of being so shitty that you spend several minutes fighting one enemy at a time. Strong weapons are thrilling because you know they can put anyone down quickly including yourself. That's what makes a game exciting, and whatever slack-jawed idea of gunplay you have is worthless, you wouldn't know anything about it because you're a goddamn halotranny without any reading comprehension.
