Can halo ever be revived?
It's pretty obvious that with Halo 4 343 industries dropped the ball. But is it possible that they can redeem themselves with halo 5? Can the halo series ever be brought back to its former glory? Or is halo a doomed series? Discuss.

If Halo 5 is good, yes. If Halo 5 is bad, no. If Halo 5 is only okay, bweh.

[quote]Can the halo series ever be brought back to its former glory?[/quote]No. [quote]Or is halo a doomed series?[/quote]You're looking at it the wrong way. [quote]Discuss.[/quote]Pop quiz! What do Lord of the Rings, Turok, Twilight, Halo, Toy Story, Harry Potter, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, and Crash Bandicoot all have in common? Answer: they are all franchises that have ended. The last Halo game that was made was Halo: Reach, which came out way back in 2010. The Halo story arc ended with Master Chief and Cortana drifting aimlessly in space at the end of Halo 3, which came out in 2007. I think we can all agree that the Halo series ended on a high note with plenty of closure including saving the Earth, the ultimate fates of the main characters, and, of course, the fact that Master Chief finally finished the fight. Halo 4 is in the same vein as Halo Wars: it's not really a Halo game. It's made by different people working under a different company name with different stories and different characters. Halo Wars, Halo 4, and whatever else 343i decides to make is ultimately just Halo fanfiction. [b]TL;DR:[/b] Halo can't be revived because it doesn't need to be. Halo as a franchise has run its course and come to a perfectly acceptable conclusion.

Editado por NAStheMagiking: 10/8/2013 4:10:59 AMHalo 4 was great at it's core, but 343 made some questionable decisions. Hopefully, with the feedback and general response to some of their decisions, they can craft a better experience. They've already shown their dedication to the cause with numerous adjustments to the MP. They've also hired the guy who was responsible for StarCraft 2's ranking system, I believe; which also tells us they're making strides. They spoke about a spectator mode during the global championships, as well. Then of course we have dedicated servers and 60fps. I think the next Halo will make some significant changes.

21 RespuestasAnd with people saying Halo Reach was a lot better. Well that's probably just because they've stuck with bungie through out the years and have taken a liking to the way their graphics are and how they show the story's of their games. And I can't possibly see how people can say halo 4 was worse than halo reach. Like story of reach was cool and all. But I find it much cooler now that halo 4 is turning the halo universe into something new and cool. But I guess it's all really a matter of opinion on what a person thinks about the 2 games.

Bungie and 343 seem to hang out , maybe bungie will give them some advice .
-
Sure. And since Hell will long since have frozen over, we can all go play ice slayer.
-
No, the Halo we all know and love is dead. Gone forever.
-
Halo wasn't doomed to begin with. Heck I think 343 did a great job with the game turning it into now a new series of the game with the forerunner saga they're making now.
-
Doomed series.
-
Yes.. If they released Halo CE, Halo 2 and Halo 3 on Steam with Workshop support. : ). Don't say it won't happen.. why else does Steam have "Offical" Halo CE, Halo 2 and Halo 3 groups. You can't join them, yet they have members for them.

I doubt it, I liked Halo 4's story but not so much on the multiplayer. It's not really that the game is bad and 343 are evil, They ruined Halo Reach for me with that TU, which is a mixed blessing really. If they hadn't screwed up Reach I wouldn't have moved onto Battlefield which I am enjoying a hell of a lot more than Halo's Multiplayer. I'll still keep up with the Halo story but I won't be buying the Xbone and Halp 5. The best 343 can do is maintain their current fanbase if they don't manage to permaban them all before Halo 5 comes out.

3 RespuestasMultiplayer isn't the only part of Halo y'know

6 RespuestasBy this forum's logic, as soon as Bungie takes the thralls it will become sex in the form of a video game disk. Oh well, I'll just have to continue being "dead" and enjoying this "dead" game.

5 Respuestasthe mp failed. but campaing was realy good. actually it is one of the best, the story was realy great
-
6 RespuestasH4 sold about 8.5 million copies and you are speaking as if it is dead. Top Logic

Easily, they just need to drop the "master chief space jesus" gig and work on doing what they hinted at in halo 4 - including the expanded universe; imagine a game based on contact harvest, or on onyx, or even just an accurate recreation of the fall of reach? - My knowledge of the halo universe has faded alot post reach, but i know there's still plenty of things left to explore, and master chief/cortana are not one of those things.

Halo 4 turned out to be fine, in the end, in the competitive gameplay settings. Halo will never be restored. Not as long as COD and Battlefield are around. Other than that, dedicated servers and 60FPS are a great addition to Halo 5.
-
The ball is still dropping.

[quote] Halo Wars, Halo 4, and whatever else 343i decides to make is ultimately just Halo fanfiction.[/quote] And that is why I don't really care about what 343i does (beyond it being really meh, uninspired, and unnecessary as hell), I already have my Halo.
-
I don't have high hopes for Halo 5, due to the time constraints 343 already has. I'd say that Halo 6 might be pretty good though.
-
I don't have high hopes for 343's Halo series. It's just so different. Even if Bungie had made it, I still would've greatly disliked it. I like Bungie, but that doesn't mean I'll never criticize anything they do. I was pretty vocal about my dislike for Reach.

2 RespuestasHalo is dad.
-
no it's been dead for awhile
-
24 Respuestas343 already revived it after the Reach disaster.

I say only if bungie makes it, no offense to 343
