Hello Spartans! My name is duck, and I am planning on remaking a halo game for PC. It will probably be a mish mash of different models from different games, made in Unity 4. It will not be the best, but I will strive to make good multi-player maps. Campaign may not come around, as it would take a lot longer than a few weeks. Please suggest any stuff you want me to add! Duck

Remake a Halo game on PC? Unless you mean emulate it, then I don't see that happening until a year or two later. Thats a massive project man. A team of hundreds of developers, modelers, animators, etc works on average on a Halo game for 2-4 years.

Yes, but you can but try. I have a small team of other people, and the main reason Halo takes so long to make is because they need to come up with 2-6 hours of campaign, good storyline.

I'm sorry but as great as the campaigns are it does not take that long to write a 2-6 hour story. For example CoD does that every year. Granted the story for Halo goes into more detail, variety, and overall storytelling. But writing the story if they took their sweet ass time would take 1 of 4 years. And even then all the hired coders, animators, etc aren't just sitting around waiting for the story. They are working from the beginning to end. If you want to try it I am not at all against it. I just want to make sure you are aware of the time and respurces it takes to make a game like that.

Don't worry, I will try to be aware of time. I appreciate that it will take a long time, but I think that it will be good as I can get it when I release it! TDuck

What game should I try to recreate though. Reach or 3? It really depends. Are you recreating the gameplay mechanics and/or the maps. Personally, I'd recommend remaking Halo 3's gameplay with models from various Halo games (perhaps your own interpretation on some things) with maps from other games as well. For example, I believe Headlong (or Breakneck in Reach) and Adrift would be fairly interesting maps to play on with that style of gameplay. I shouldn't have to remind you, but make sure you have heretic in there

What is heretic? I have not played some of the campaigns! I am not sure if Breakneck would be possible... I will try headlong, adrift looks interesting...
