ign can such my @ss. 343I gave NOTHING. IO1 is a fan made Halo game for pc that aims to recreate that Halo 2 - Halo 3 feeling. 343i, Bungie and even Microsoft have offered 0 help to this game (except 343i hosting a forum section on their site). now i dont hate 343 or anything but they did NOT create this game. that title is bs.
English
-
The title said nothing about them helping i01.
-
Nobody said they're helping make, or making the game at all. They're just saying that they acknowledged the project and said they really liked it, etc.
-
yes, i read it wrong. not sleeping with a long day ahead isnt a good combination.
-
Not to butt in, but I believe an apology is owed? [spoiler]INTERNET MANNERS![/spoiler]
-
the only apology i owe is against ign but i doubt they even read this post.
-
Nobody said they made the game, just that 343 are allowing the project to go through. Nowhere does it say, "343 Creates new Halo game titled Installation 01"
-
Not bs
-
No. Your reading comprehension is poor. The title simply and clearly states that 343 Industries gives the game their blessing. It does not, in any way, imply that they had any part in its development or should be given any credit for doing so. The way it is written is the proper way to write it.
-
Well, they did create the game... They own the license to it. This is a project thats basically remastering it.
-
they create official Halo games. they did not create io1
-
Copying their product. It's Halo. They could get shut down for infringement but 343 is letting them build it. 343 always has say-so over this game, not the other way around.
-
Installation 01 was born here, on the #gaming forum, a couple years ago, when one user had an idea and started recruiting other users.
-
Uh huh.
-
Dude what are you talking about, he's not claiming 343i made the game. He's saying 343i gave the devs their blessing. Meaning 343i won't shut the -blam!-ing game down, not that they're taking credit for making the game. Come on man, at least pay attention to what you're reading.
-
i'm just talking about the title which is misleading
-
I'm not sure why you have an issue with the title. All it says is that 343 is allowing them to make the game.
-
it says "Gives" while they didn't give nor did they create this game
-
"Gives" in this context refers to 343 saying it's okay for them to continue development of the game.
-
yes but by reading the title alone you get another impression
-
No you don't, I got the impression 343i are giving them their blessing to make the game. Which is great imo, they could have shut the project down.
-
some do some dont and no they could not have shut the project down since it's fair use. if any microsoft would be the one shutting it down
-
Fair use is shaky at best and going by precedent means nothing here. It doesn't matter if you might call it fair use, when a cease-and-desist letter gets sent out people stop because some ordinary guy on the streets doesn't have the money to fight -blam!-ing Microsoft. If you copy something copyrighted in a way the owner worries might hurt its brand (either from taking potential customers' attention or associating something not up to their standard with their intellectual property) they generally send a letter that people absolutely don't have the money to fight. For years popular fan projects have been going that way, such as a Star Wars project which was forced to re-brand by a C&D notice. This is absolutely something good on the part of Microsoft as the franchise owners and 343i as the current developers of the series. Based on other responses I see, you seem to be the only one who didn't understand the title. Generally speaking, it's far more likely you're the crazy one than the last sane person on Earth. Work on your reading comprehension.
-
care to explain why you think i'm most likely the crazy one? you assumed that because i typed a few sentences on Bungie.net? and like i said 343i cant shut it down only Microsoft can which will most likely not happen since it's under fair use. and no i dont need to work on my reading comprehension because 1 mistake lol you aint my teacher or some shit
-
Edited by eviltedi: 7/1/2017 7:32:06 AMI know Microsoft could shut it down, Microsoft own 343i so Microsoft must also be ok with this, and to be honest,,, you're the only one that seems confused by the thread title. Also 343i could shut them down on copyright infringement. It's great they're not.

[quote]yes but by reading the title alone you get another impression[/quote] Reading comprehension isnt your strong suit, is it?
