Halo mod on half-Life 2

I ask you this:

<BLOCKQUOTE dir=ltr style="MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px">
Do you think someone should make a Halo mod for Half-Life 2? Seeing that Halo 2 was as expected to be.

There are 2 yes's and no's. I did this for a more detailed look at the poll. You can see the differences in the choices.

I love Halo personally, and don't really see a need to redo it for another engine. I think Halo 2 lived up to my expectations :smile:

Halo2 is perfectly fine, but why would you want to waste all that time making an unoriginal mod? Take your energy and work ethic and use them to build something new, fun, and unique. If you're so hell bent on making a Halo mod why don't you start by trying to make Coagulation in HL2DM (yes, the jeeps work in DM)

When I started this idea, I should have said Halo like mod for Half-Life 2. You know, with the "Space Marine" like adventures and action. Not really a direct clone of the Halo series. But, I felt seeing what people felt about a direct clone. I believe people would enjoy a Halo mod fo Half-Life 2 if it looked better, behaved realistically, ak physics, and perhaps added more gameplay options, like multiplayer war missions.

I like Halo, I hate consoles, I hate the pc version.
I whould play it on the source engine :smile:

I'll tell ya man, if you could give every single HL2 gun a close combat option where you smack people with the butt of your rifle you'd be one giant step towards awesome.

No! Don't do this to halo! in big mascuelin voice I hate halo. Just let it rot.

Halo was really repetitive and boring. And i hate consoles. No halo! Halo Bad!

Or how about some Duke Nukem 3D style kicking?

OH MY GOD HALO2 MOD ON PC!!!!!!!!! I DON'T KNOW WHY THEY EVEN MADE AN XBOX WHEN THERE'S GENIUSES OUT THERE LIKE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!

HALO 2 CAN SUCK BALLS, its sooooo bad,

The storyline is just snippets stolen from other games, turok,half life, and there is even elements of certain filmes in there too.

Halo 2 is just halo 1 with duel weilding, i refuse to play either one of them, and as soon as it comes out on pc, i shall spit on it.

Why not make a good mod involving "Space Marines" like a warhammer mod, at least there the marines would not suck, as you could give them fangs and call them space wolves.

I've never played Halo. When I tried to download the demo, it always messed up. And I'll never EVER get an Xbox. I swear the Xbox controller has something against me, I hate it! That and from what I've read, Halo 2 isn't worth my time.

A Warhammer 40k mod would be good if it was pulled off well enough, but I think taking the setting of Inquisitor could be much better. An Inquisitor mod would sooo rock!

You say all that and you haven't played either game? Your intellect is only surpassed by your fantastic linguistic skills.

Halo 2 is just halo 1 with duel weilding

That statement is just utterly wrong.

Ironic how you complain about Halo's story and yet you think that a mod about space marines would be original.

I have to admit that the Halo series is one of the better Xbox games
around (if not the best), but I think they should stick to the console.

The last Halo-port to PC was crap (not really optimized), and I don't
think it is even possible to create a mod for it. Just let Bungie port
it to PC, we'll see.

Bungie never ported it, Gearbox did.

If this mod was made correctly, it'd be ok. But it wouldn't be Halo. It would HL2 with Halo models and such. Since you've have to practically rewrite the engine to make it Halo like.

I never said it would be original, besides, there is no set stroyline for the world of warhammer, and you could be creative and indeed, original, with the storyline. However, mostly, warhammer mods would be for multiplayer, again, much better than halo, halo's multiplayer is the worts steaming heap of s**t i have ever seen. Goldeneye on the N64 rules the multiplayer word, with counter strke close behind.

I'm gonna assume you haven't played Halo 2 multiplayer on Live then? If
you can find a game without some racist prick or a person who won't
stop singing some s**t hip-hop, its quite an amazing multiplayer :smile: The
vehicles just feel much more weighted and fun to use than those in any
other FPS I've come across.

what about the hlaf life 2 vehicles, they feel the correct weight...

...except when i double backflipped the hovercraft...

Hey reno.

Halo 2 does have a fun multiplayer mode, yes the vehicles are about the best in any game to date, and the people that play it are generally nice. But (and there's always a but) It plays slowly, and does not feel like you are running, the control systems is lagy and cumbersome, that and its about the only game even worth thinking about playing on Xbox, which hurts the wallet. But what really lets halo 2 down, is its single player mode, halo had an ok single player, that was chalenging and, sometimes, fun, to play. Halo2 is not fun to play, its like the end of halo1, but all the way through, samey and boring.

It could have been great, but there are some unavoidable thing that let it down.

Anyway, from what ive seen, i think halo is like marmite....You either love it, or hate it.

I hate it....for those of you that haven't gathered that already, lol.

Yeh, lol, the HL2 vehicles are a bit fickle at times :biggrin:

It does play quite slow but I wouldn't say thats a bad thing, just an
acquired taste I think :smile: I totally disagree about Halo 2's single
player being boring - on the contrary I find it to be far more varied
and exciting than Halo 1 (albeit with less "wow" factor, due to the
fact its not as brand spanking new as Halo was). I don't see how you
could say Halo 2 is more samey than Halo 1 - don't you remember the
repeating rooms of the covenant ship, or the library?! Halo 2 rarely
re-uses any room with the exception of a couple of chapters, and even
then at least they feature some differences between them. I've
completed it on Heroic and while it wasn't that hard, it was
challenging and I rarely felt I was breezing through it. I'm looking
forward to having more time on my hands so I can play it through on
legendary :smile:

And please don't get me started on the Xbox topic, it has a huge number of games beyond Halo worth playing.
