I doubt that they will add the Halo: Reach system, but they did mention that they were exploring deeper Armor customization and also EXP systems, so these could actually be added down the road. They probably follow the current model in the MCC, where you choose from presets for each game in the collection, because MCC (right now) doesn't support individual armor customization.
Here is a video on how it currently works in the MCC for reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1I4lozmVmQs
Yeah, you can only have armor sets for whatever reason. Pretty baffling.wait...as far as I can tell, you are only allowed to select your armor in those games...but I mean, the entire armor.
In halo 3, you could mix and match different parts, and I know you could do that in Halo 4. Has that changed in MCC?
everything :)Dumb question. Is this just for reach that it is up to 4k/60fps or all of the MCC?
Can....can they fix that?Yeah, you can only have armor sets for whatever reason. Pretty baffling.
They've talked about adding it, but no one really knows at this point. I don't get it either.Can....can they fix that?
It's not as big a deal in Halo 3 as I could never tell what armor someone was wearing aside from the helmet anyway, but armor customization is a much bigger part of Halo Reach since it changed your character model in cutscenes. Being able to mix and match there is more important than anywhere else.
From those that purchased the MCC, can you explain to me how does multiplayer work.
Is there one central multiplayer for the entire collection or does each game have its own multiplayer ?
I really hope they have the full customisation from Reach and just not armor sets. I loved they way you could make your spartan look.Can....can they fix that?

Both, there's individual playlists underneath a match composer, with the match composer you can select which games and gametypes you want to play and it will match you accordingly.From those that purchased the MCC, can you explain to me how does multiplayer work.

It would be a huge oof if they didn't include this. Reach had the best customization in the entire series imo.I really hope they have the full customisation from Reach and just not armor sets. I loved they way you could make your spartan look.
TO think about all that money that MS has been sitting on for so long. PC is the perfect place for their games.
The PC announcement is the absolute top post of r/Halo, even higher than the announcement for Infinite. Damn, people really were waiting for this.
I saw a post with 110k points last night on r/all, people are excited

It's not too high, actually. Though they elected to have a megathread rather than a direct link.
I think that was r/Gaming, which is at over 124k now, but it's also not even the top post of the month.I saw a post with 110k points last night on r/all, people are excited
Honestly wish they just waited a few years for the ten year anniversary of Reach to give it the H2 anniversary treatment, I love the game, and it being on PC is kinda insane, but damn if Reach isn't the Halo that I want that treatment with the most.
Well...I hope they find a simpler way to do it, but if that's what it takes...They could fix armor customization in a sense. But since the MCC slices all the games up, it's no longer in engine when you're changing the armor so there isn't a way to show you what your Spartan looks like without making a sort of complex solution. Like making an image of every possible permutation in reach would be Overkill... So they need a way to generate the images without being in game.
All colours, all pieces, everything.
Same, also to support the Steam releaseProbably will have access to this on the Windows Store but will double-dip for Steam, this is insane.
Agreed, not only did it offer the best way to customize your spartan, the armor parts themselves have never looked better.It would be a huge oof if they didn't include this. Reach had the best customization in the entire series imo.
I'd give up any of those Halo games to get Perfect Dark with M&KB support.

I love everything I'm reading here. Hopefully at least the first part comes to fruition!Here's my non-educated, overly optimistic speculation that is definitely 100% going to happen:
Halo 5 is a ways off but needs to be out before Infinite, will release at the start of next year. The rest of the games therefore need to be out even earlier.
Reach gets shadow-dropped on Sunday - that's clearly why they're holding out on release details until then.
As soon as the announcement goes live, a bunch of big streamers will have the game already and will be streaming right away.
MCC games will then be released between now and the end of the year, one every couple of months.
Trump gets impeached. Brexit gets cancelled. The world in general decides to chill the fuck out, stop all the bullshit, and relax with some Halo. Guaranteed.

I hope you're right about every single part of this, but especially the bolded.Here's my non-educated, overly optimistic speculation that is definitely 100% going to happen:

It's almost exactly identical to the original game. They added the optional redone visuals and soundtrack, but they run on top of what is basically a port of the Windows version of the original game. Ditto for Halo 2 Anniversary, which is based on Halo 2 Vista.Never played the MCC before, so pardon my ignorance.
How are the physics, vehicle destruction, etc. on Halo: CE? Is it the same game, or did they "upgrade" it?
If it's the original game, I'm all about some multiplayer when it releases.
For Halo 2 Anniversary weren't there 2 engines?I hope you're right about every single part of this, but especially the bolded.
