Consider the project dead Maybe it's not dead Edition

>What is this?

The leaked version of Halo: Online, released early for testing in Russia; it is roughly similar to Halo 3. Our top scientists have finally released a public patch that allows multiplayer via the Halo 3 system link menu.

ElDewrito (updater/launcher. Instructions in the readme): http://a.pomf.se/pmilei.zip

https://d.maxfile.ro/gvrxiwabha.7z (with backup files for people without a clean Halo Online install)

IF you have trouble updating your client, open up dewrito.json in your text editor of choice and change the updateServiceUrl to the following: "updateServiceUrl": "http://dew.halo.click/update_server/update.json"

>How do I host a server?

Port forward ports 11774 TCP, 11775 UDP, and 9987 UDP, then you just go into Multiplayer and change it to Online Tab with Host a Game.

Sorry, I misread the first part of your post. I thought you were saying you were making threads on fullchan /vg/

also sorry for calling your program shit, but it kinda was.

>Why the hell are people still posting on this board?

You have to post in order to bring more posters, anon. And I'd rather talk about halo here than on /v/, seeing as over the last couple of months full/v/ has deteriorated to halfchan levels of shit and you can hardly have good threads without obnoxious levels of shitposting anymore.

>Would you guys care to join the Steam /vg/ group that I made eons ago?

Not particularly. I don't use steam to catch up on the progress of projects I'm interested in.

On the one hand you have a Story of classic epicness, trought with implicit speciesism and natural order. A war of tribes, Humans versus the Covenant, and the Flood an even enemy of mass spreading.

It's an epic story, one that will make you cry if you are high on the dope. In Master Chief's emotionless helmet, you sense, deeply, a real sacrificer. A man who gave his whole life to save his tribe, even if they started him off in the SPARTAN program by unlawful means. Tears rolled down my eyes because he was the definition of loyalty, of absolute, sheer Godliness.

Halo rules the games in terms of proportion of war. Surely, any fiction can beat this just by defining objects as larger than the halos, the ark, and the ships in the game, make it on an intergalactic instead of just galactic. But Halo captures the small parts building a great, =great= empire. We sense the humanity of the marines, in their upgraded-WW2 uniforms. They are expendable, but necessary as a buffer against the numbers of humans. Master Chief is part of a species, a group, that must survive for their own sake. We can see, as well, that the majority of the humans in Halo are 1 race, white. In Halo 1-3 there are no black marines, only Sgt. Johnson. A truth that will not be seen by bluepilled people: Humanity will only ever be so advanced if it maintains a white majority, which is supremely capable of maintaining high-functioning systems. There is only one black man that is in the UNSC in Halo 1-3, Sgt. Johnson, which is telling that yes there is very capable black people, but there are a tiny tiny minority. In this story of ever loyalty of white people to themselves, in keeping their tribe strong, there is no mention of it. It is a fantasy that through the colorblind mentality of the 2000s, we ended up with a majority white world where only the most virtuous black people were left. This may not be in alignment with reality, black people lack a sense of honor at alarming rates, but some do, and they were the ones that made it tPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

File: 1460415119520-4.jpg (6.5 KB, 300x168, 25:14, images.jpg)

I bring this up, because how could Master Chief be loyal to an army of equal amounts of Asians, Blacks, and Whites? What about Mexicans, as I see similar such type of people in Halo 3. If these subspecies were presented as 1 species in Halo, the narrative wouldn't strike as boldly. There organically would be too much thought of infighting and competition. Even after the Elites teamed up with the Humans in Halo 3, they returned to their home planet, Sanghelios. Halo is a story of strident loyalty.

And in addition, the marines, like I said earlier, don't look too fancy. They are raw soldiers, raw sacrificers as it is seen. Even Master Chief's armor design looks blatantly raw and unclean. He looks very brute in Halo 2-3's armor, and in Halo 1 where the story is introduced, he appears more spiritual and curvy, like a purpose is imprinted in his armor. Later he is faced with the reality of war, and his armor changes. Halo 4's armor sucked and the story should've ended at Halo 3, left as an open legend.

There is also the godliness of Halo. Some people have called it a Christian allegory. The Halos, which represent the wages of sin. Flood, which represents sin. The Covenant, which represents Judaism. The Brutes are clear portrayals of current day black people, jackals are hyper-jews, grunts are degenerates, Elites are powerful people who are abused by the Jewry, and eventually rebel. Drones, which are insectoids, are a tough enemy to beat when they swarm in numbers, I think they represent the organically evil nature of mass-produced technology. Master Chief is Jesus, coming down to redirect all life, not just the evil, into Godly order. Except, the story is much more European, more viking-like than it is semitic as the story of Jesus is. Instead of Master Chief giving his shirt as well and turning the other cheek, he imposes with brute force and impeccable discipline the will of God. The survival of good humanity, which is largely synonymous with white humanity, even against the most evil enemies.

In the end, Halo is just Halo, and it is a great story of loyalty, of Godliness, and of whiteness.

It also has a marvelous gameplay, especially in multiplayer, the BR which is only effective if one has disciplined aim and a jumping spirit of strafing. The Sniper which is the best weapon in the game, capable of climbing mt. Kilimanjaro and conquering the other team down from the depths of losingness. The frag grenade works especially different, exploding on a set time after hitting the ground. The Spartan is a grenade master, tossing it off walls and throwing it far distances for the final BR killshot to follow.

But in the very end, it's just a game and we gotta stop playing it and pick up the real Battle Rifle, and stand up for Europa, go to the Gym, become strong, and raise a family.

But maybe after a while, after the family is well off, the Muslim hordes are defeated, and world Jewry is subjugated, maybe then will be the time to pull out the dusty Xbox 360 from the storage, put in Halo 3, and show our sons what a real game is.

We are proud to announce that ElDewrito has finally reached the milestone version of 0.5. This update will allow you to play on all of the new maps present in the latest official release of Halo Online: High Ground, Last Resort, Narrows, Standoff, The Pit and Sandtrap.

This will be the last major release of ElDewrito made by the original team. We have decided to focus our collective efforts on an entirely new project called Anvil Online, which is a mod for Halo Online that has different design goals from ElDewrito. We will do our best to keep you updated on our progress on this project. We will create another post later with more details on the project.

We welcome the community to continue our efforts in the meantime, while we work hard to bring you the best experience that we possibly can.

With every ending is a new beginning.

SO, ITT: WE DISCUSS WHY 343i IS FUCKING AWFUL

I'll start:

>Halo Waypoint is composed entirely of faggots who want to suck Microsoft's flacid dong

>MCC is still a fucking bugged mess with no dedicated infection matchmaking playlists

>Further ruining of any hope that Halo 3: ODST will get a sequel

>God forbid the rigged "sprint polls" that contained every shill on the market, and kept every shitty feature that nobody wanted in Halo 5

I can't name any sources off the top of my head, but I'm 99% sure that I heard (from multiple sources) that Halo 3's online multiplayer user base blew Halo 4 out of the fucking water post-release boost. Basically, the consumers shat on Microshaft's fucktarded attempt at pulling players from the COD playerbase. Nobody wanted to play Halo 4's online when Halo 3's followed the tradition of the series far better.

Tl;dr, we play Halo because we don't feel like playing something similar to COD. When they try to shove COD-style garbage down our throats, we go back to the game we originally liked.

All i remember is playing halo 3 custom games till times that i find difficult to stay up to now

and i had no idea

several nights I wouldn't even sleep and not because i didn't want to but because time passed so quickly

I remember adding people just for the lobbies

I remember begging for invites

I remember joining at the last slot

I remember making friends ( still even remember some of their gamer tags )

I remember countless and countless hours on forge trying to make a map that would become popular and then asking every lobby to give it a shot

I remember all the amazing times in those games that in all honesty were extremely innovative and creative

I remember playing COOP with a ridiculous amount of skulls on and then (( assuming i already hunted for them ))

I remember practically sucking dicks to try and get recon even though I preferred my armor

And tbh I would kill to have one of those spectacular nights back again

Halo 3 has been one of the few games to reach me on a level

So I decided to check out some multiplayer footage of Halo 5 since I've only seen various clips of one map. Boy was I disappointed.

This map isn't finished, right? Tell me it's just a beta thing. Not only do the structures look completely untextured, but the environment around the map looks like complete shit.
