So how is this gonna work with multiplayer? is every game gonna have its own MP server so we can jump between each game or is every map gonna be remade for halo 2 since that's what they are trumpeting?
but the icing on the cake is the halo 5 beta... WOOT!:)
that's the confusing part so will every game have its own dedicated MP or are all the maps being remade for halo 2?
personally this collection is going to be a real test for 343I, Because now in one game you will have the classic Halo 2 MP that everyone LAUDS as the best ever in the series. And then you will have the Beta for the future of the series and it will be interesting to see how many people will like Halo 5 or in the future play Halo 5 MP over Halo 2... Interesting predicament to me.
From what I understand, Only Halo 2 maps are being redone in a new engine to update the graphics. Each game will have it's own multiplayer with all the maps untouched.
"Meanwhile, multiplayer matchmaking will offer the usual assortment of playlists you’ve come to expect from Halo games – Team Snipers, Rumble Pit, etc. – and let players vote on which map they want next. But what’s cool is that you may be presented with three choices that span three different games. Say, Halo: CE’s “Wizard,” Halo 2’s “Lockout,” and Halo 3’s “The Pit.” Whichever gets the most votes is the game that MCC will launch, after which you’ll be taken back to the multiplayer lobby with your friends." IGN
This means it is one big matchmaking Halo combo that gives you 4 selections each game that is either one of the 4 games. So pick a game type and then vote for the map and game
I need more!
My boy Neighbor still a beast with that sniper. This is going to provide me another 1000+ hours of MP amazingness.
Halo 2 was a good game :)
Ghost and Neighbor! Halo 2! WE BACK BABY!
EDIT: Disagree? So we're not back? :(
Xbox One must buy, and Halo Collection day one for me! I will get it soon. I am very excited to finally Halo 1 maps online also!
