Yesterday I got to play the multiplayer demo for Halo Anniversary at Fan Expo. I got whooped, but I blame it on someone upping the sensitivity higher than I'm used to. We played a team slayer game in Beaver/Battle Creek, but I forget what they called it. It had a lot of changes like man cannons, expanded caves, ect. Everything looked awesome. It plays pretty much like Reach though, not that that's bad. All the menus looked the same, didn't get to peek in the armory though. The guy said "You can change your button preferences, but if you change your armour I will cry." He also looked down on inverting the right thumbstick, but that's how I play.

I'll try to get in to play again today, but I know the line will be much bigger. They gave out a code to the top two players of the round. I didn't catch what it was for. Early beta download I'm guessing.

I don't know if this has already been posted, but heres a preview of the multiplayer maps:

The thing that is in the back of my mind is... Where the -Blam!- is Blood Gulch?

The thing that scares me now: at 5:18, someone calls it the "Halo Anniversary DLC".

Discuss.

 

[SHdude]

Yeah, the multiplayer will run on the reach engine and for anyone without Halo: Anniversary, the maps will be available as DLC eventually.

 

[SchizophrenicMC]

To answer your question, SHdude, Blood Gulch is in Forge World - Canyon.

Anyway, just throwing this in here for kicks, he said "CE" which to me always makes me think Custom Edition. Though I know he meant Combat Evolved, how cool would it be for Coldsnap to be in Anniversary? xD

 

[Varsity]

I dont like forge worlds blood gulch. I hope it gets remade with anniversary.

[Unity]

I must say he DOES move more naturally !

HeadLong is leaked in CE Anniversary from IGN. I can't belive we finally get it back. Its the only map i ever spent more than 10 hours straight in the same party, i don't plan to every do it again, but it was good times.

 

[Unity]

Hey ForgedReclaimer -How is the Halo 4 chief going? last I herd you were modeling it. I figured these screenshots would also help you and other modelers if you ever plan to model some HD anniversary stuff.

 

[koshima07]

It may be easier to take the cheif from Halo, then detail the anniversary edition into the model, and make that HD, wouldn't it?

I am and i will be posting it as soon as possible. The real problem is I'm not making models anymore (for a little while) i bought a used computer from a family member and they said it worked perfect and that its too new (1 1/2 years) to be broken. I was short on cash and in the end, this computer is falling apart like my last. Although the big double edged swrod is i'm working more, this gets me money for my new system but stalls progress even further.

In short, you will have a Halo 4 spartan "Helmet" in some time.

Take as long as you need, Forged. You've done amazing work. KUDOS, yo.
