Did Bungie Accidentally Confirm Firefight in Halo Reach?

Gameguru.in "They recently released a new vidoc yesterday titled Carnàge Carnivàle that showcases the many new modes and gameplay types which are being added into Reach. While discussing the multiplayer maps for the game, one the developers mentions the existence of the maps in the multiplayer mode being available for the single player campaign mode for Reach."

Fake
wow are you kidding me. Just read the article and this is drawing WAY too huge of a conclusion. They simply mean the maps are integrated with the campaign so everything looks familiar and in synergy.

Bad Editing
when dealing with rumors you have to put rumor in the title

I see no idea why, it's an excellent mode to increase re-playability and a great way people to have fun...

Niles5115d ago

I had tons of fun in ODST just because of firefight...

281219865115d ago

they are essentially crafted to generate looping experiences.

HolyOrangeCows5114d ago

They better not charge us extra for it. With the unfair practices they used with Halo 3 (eg blocking Big Team Battle unless you buy new maps), though, I wouldn't be surprised.

If they stop that crap, I'll meet y'all on the Reach train.
Here's hoping Firefight is included.

IaMs125114d ago

Well they did confirm that this game will have all the features of the previous games so it will have all this and more now.

Reibooi5114d ago

Well I say it's a pretty certain thing that Firefight will be in the game. It was the reason to own ODST and was incredibly fun.

That said I don't think what was said has anything to do with the mode being confirmed or not. What it sounds like to me is that he meant maps in multiplayer will be somewhat inspired by places you will visit in the campaign. MANY online multiplayer games do this and maybe Bungie is doing that with Reach.

SixZeroFour5114d ago

wasnt it already stated as fact that the multiplayer maps would be places taken straight out of the campaign...this doesnt mean there will be firefight (but i wish they are going to add firefight and with matchmaking this time, not that it will be hard for me to find a game with my friends anyways)

also, the spaces in multiplayer, although coming straight from campaign, will look different in a sense that the mood and weather will be changed. ei in campaign, a level can be cloudy, and rainy, but in multiplayer, that same level will be sunny and bright

cool cole5114d ago

Like they say in Kung Fu Panda, "There are no accidents".

and even with the firefight I do...

Niles5114d ago

i think...your avatar says it all....

Sunny_D5114d ago

What's the avatar? It's too small.

the Elites...Its gonna be damn sweet...

rogimusprime5114d ago

Firefight with MATCHMAKING!!!!!

Kind of tough to be directly compared with Horde mode when you don't have matchmaking. Not all of us have time to sit around and wait for our friends to come home from work so we can send them invites.

Either way, I'll still be picking this up on day one.

Wizziokid5114d ago (Edited 5114d ago )

It's kind of the same set-up as ODST with the squad so it dose fit in, and it was an amazing game-mode anyway.

I hope it dose happen but if it dose they need to move it to matchmaking because only being able to play with friends kind sucked, especially when your friends aren't playing it.

But at the same time I don't think what they said was really a hint, I think they just decided to make a basis where multiplayer and singleplayer have reference unlike past games where the MP maps didn't relate to the campaign at all.

IrishAssa5114d ago

I think he meant they are using single player levels for multiplayer maps not Firefight

Niles5114d ago

Marcus says Mutiplayer maps for Single player...Check the video out again...they did the same thing for ODST for firefight....Single player maps were available for Multplayer's firefight...

IrishAssa5114d ago

Maybe your right.

there is no point on even speculating if it will be in it though. I mean why the Hell not? They said they wanted to do more with firefight and Reach is the next sequel. No point in taking features out

Nebulas Zero5114d ago

Firefight is the only real source of fun I found with Halo 3: ODST. The single player was okay, but the world hub novelty wore off and the length was just a real downer. I hope they include Firefight with 4 player split-screen this time around, since the original only included 2 player split-screen (on the same TV).

IrishAssa5114d ago

I hate the way split-screen is not in alot of current gen games. Halo one of hte onl ones that stuck with it . Also WAW=Treyarc. MW2=infinity ward. IW will never take anything from Trey because they're to stuck up

How'd fallout not make the list. Atleast over cyberpunk, tales , and halo. Fallout been around since what 96 98 and has 5 6 games into it. It's full of lore when you play it. I'd even add star ocean to a point.

robtion480d ago

Agree Fallout should be on there.

MadLad480d ago

And somehow Planescape Torment doesn't even make the list.

Crows90480d ago

Hollow knight surpasses these.

shinoff2183480d ago

In lore? I must be missing something

Crows90480d ago (Edited 480d ago )

Yes in lore. Easily missed... absolutely. Never played a game that had me loving the world and lore behind it as much as that one. Most of course wouldn't be able to experience it since it is a more difficult game.

DarXyde480d ago

I can't speak for all titles on this list, but by the time you get to Dark Souls III, the lore is a bloody tapestry of intricacy

Crows90479d ago

Played them all. Im not saying the games on the list dont have good lore...I just think hollow knight had more lore that is hidden but present and more easily explored and accessed. The souls games have tremendous lore but theyre mostly hidden and stay that way unless you look for it and research it. The lore is not very accessible.

DarXyde479d ago

Crows90,

I think that's a somewhat fair assessment. For me, the Souls games are less upfront about the lore, but it does invite your fascination through NPCs, items, locations, bosses, etc. There's this kind of natural progression where the picture becomes just clear enough by doing the essential tasks, but it really makes you want to explore every inch of the world.

TheColbertinator480d ago

Suikoden and Legend of Heroes also have massive lore setups.

agent13480d ago

narration is more important than lore i'd rather watch the story and characters in a more cinematic way instead of searching for notes and stuff that's why i love sony exclusive games like uncharted and gow and hate from software games

shinoff2183479d ago

The article was top ten lore in video games. I think they did a bad job picking games out. I know what you mean though. I just like a variety of games and genres.

SullysCigar565d ago

Awesome news - so can we look forward to playing Halo: Infinite with no online issues circa 2033?

just_looken565d ago

"You can download the improved Reach AI mod at Mod DB" This was a mod 343 did nothing so the online will be fixed in our dreams.

SullysCigar565d ago

Par for the course with 343.

Profchaos564d ago

They did say they had a 10 year plan for infinite we just all assumed it would be DLC could of been a 10 year netcode rollout.

But seriously this is a mod the community won't be able to modify infinite in the same way

Cikatriz_ESP565d ago

Combat Evolved was the best campaign, and it's not even close.

just_looken565d ago

You should have tried this version of reach when it first came out remastered for a year there was no sound because 343 could not locate the sound files.

It was a special challenge.

badz149565d ago

more like the bunch at 343i are simply mentally challenged

ACEMANWISE565d ago

Well I guess 12 years is faster than most fixes. I guess this is a cheap way to "remaster" something nowadays.....by just fixing something that used to always be broken.

zidane1341565d ago

Did you even read the article? This is a mod to improve AI from back almost 2 gens ago. Nobody is claiming this is remastering anything. Yeesh.

Crows90564d ago

Halo is dead. Microsoft has other shooter franchises it cares more about now. 343 are no longer Xbox golden studio. They are likely to shift things around or even close it all together and give the IP to someone else.

343i decided to pummel the IP into the ground...and when they see it didn't quite look like Glenn's face they decided to just keep on pummeling. Not sure if Glenn is the IP or the fanbase in this case though.

Profchaos564d ago

343 were never the golden studio they were a hastily thrown together b team when bungie said we want to do something else cya

Crows90564d ago

Well ...I didn't want to say it but I agree. Makes you wonder why Microsoft gave them the IP and didn't keep Bungie or any of the talent they acquired from any studio.

CobraKai564d ago

“ Halo Infinite, Halo 3, or Halo: Combat Evolved. It’s hard to say which of the sci-fi FPS games offers the best experience all round.”
He lost me with Halo Infinite.
