Re: Battlefield or Halo?

Halo most definitely has a decent single-player, and the multiplayer has a good concept too, but n00bs just ruin the experience. The fact that you HAVE to play as the Arbiter in some missions really does suck though.

The one Voss to rule them all. The one Voss to find them. One Voss to bring them all and FRAG THEM!

Re: Battlefield or Halo?

Simply put, no-one is going to change their mind about what they think Halo and Battlefield are like. But Halo 3.

I quite happily admit that Halo on PC, have and love (No multiplayer, I have battlefield for that) Halo on XBox, lodda Sh** controls are so slow on consoles, Halo 2 on XBox, was is and will always be a complete wast of time, (not just because of the controls) Halo 2 on PC, also a wast of time and money, (WTF is the use of making it a Vista only game but not using dx9, so then people hack it onto xp just months after release?) Halo 3.... XBox......   .............   .............
     
Is good? Strangely enough, the controls don't feel sluggish, the repetitiveness is gone (unless you die and have to do the same bit again over and over and over *raises hand*) It just doesn't get boring. You feel sometimes like your doing the same thing over and over, but then stuff happens to break the monotone. "Tank beats Hunter...... Tank beats Ghost......... Tank beats Wraith!........ Tank beats EVERYTHING!!"  Plus running into a room to see a man curled in the corner blathering to himslef is funny, or was that because of the glitch that made the gun that was supposed to be pointed at his head disappear?

Admittedly it can be tedious at times, but it is a very fun, occasionally funny game.

I may lead a double life full of secrets and deception, but that's no reason to be suspicious.

"Dolph tie up the brat. Lesa hold the book. Vincent get the truck. And Kieth... Darn it change your name. Please. That's no scary, and I'm embarrassed to say it. -Boris. Try That.
Keith. you know? Oh, watch out for Kieth."

Re: Battlefield or Halo?

Halo is great. I find the controlls really tight and if they aren't right right away I change the sensitivity and donate a couple minutes to just getting the sensitivity down.

Halo 1 and 2 multiplayer is VERY good. Its a nice blend between Run and Gun and though many people doubt this, yes strategy!

Halo's gameplay is no more base than Battlefield's is. I mean BF2 is trash imo compared to Halo 1 & 2. But in anycase they are two differnent games aimed at different purposes.

Halo=kickass ramboing with team work to the side
Battlefield 2142/FS/1942/FH/Veitnam= Ramboing thats not so kick pie but made better due to a layer of teamwork.

Just so everyone knows

BF 2142>Halo1&2

have yet to play 3

Re: Battlefield or Halo?

Battlefield does not have basic gameplay. The teamwork is very tactical and takes skill and there are many ways to play it. Halo is just run about and shoot aliens.

PLease explain how halo is good

Re: Battlefield or Halo?

Heh. Well I'll try but I think no matter what I say you wont agree; which is fine, different strokes for different blokes.

On top of the fact that Halo is very solid as a FPS in regards to controls, weapons, and vehicles Halo beats Battlefield solidly on two fronts; Game modes (and the customization of them) and casual/living room appeal.

The game modes are an incredible on-up, you can Race you can do your standard death match you can do Team Death Match (very similar to Conquest), Territory (this is Conquest), CTF, Juggarnaught <--- hella fun on both sides, and more soo many more thanks to customization.

Living Room Appeal is something that might or might not matter to others. Its the ability to call over a bunch of friends look them in the face, laugh with them, drink with them, and just have fun socializing over a nice game of Halo.

Yes, this only works if you like Halo to begin with, but you know what? Most people who HATE (yes there is a difference between HATE and 'its a good game but I don't see all the hype') either

A. Believes 100% computer supremecy with FPS
B. Is a hard-core Strategy type, no concessions!

and not having them in the community is not a bad thing wink , aka I don't want the n00b I killed with the needler saying "OMG I Would have f*ing killed you if I had a mouse, damn these controlls suck, I f*ing hate the controller" and continues to play two more rounds.

Halo is good, definately overhyped, but it is a solid game. If you dont like it I don't care. Stop bitching and don't play it, simple huh? I'll still have 4 million+ people to play with and I can still be able to enjoy playing BF when I want to too!

Re: Battlefield or Halo?

This is a discussion. Sorry if you think all people that dont agree with you are bitching. But its not that i dont like consoles or normal fps. i loved red faction 2 on multiplayer. Maybe if i playd the new one. But halo 1 did not do anything for me. wasnt bad but wasnt good.
