Should I go OG graphics or remastered? Any tips? Anonymous Quoted By: >>544007271if you want to have fun pick medium I can't remember the name fuck, do the remastered graphics for a first playthrough, it's alot easier on the eyes Anonymous Quoted By: >>544018578 >>544007271HeroicOG graphics because 343's art style is dogshit and the original's is literally classic and unbeatable Anonymous Quoted By: Heroic, original graphics. anniversary graphics are good but you're forced to listen to the anniversary OST Anonymous Quoted By: >>544018578 heroic, legendary is too hard for a comfy run as halo 2 is the hardest campaign to beatanniversary textures are very bad and don't have symmetry with the original game. some terrain and objects are slimmer in anniversary, leading to shooting into walls and wasting bullets when you're using updated graphics. never use updated graphics for 1/2 Anonymous Quoted By: >>544018578 >>544007271The new graphics are nice and shiny but if you want the boomer halo 2 experience then slap on the old graphics.In terms of difficulty you should only play Normal if you're not that good at vidya. If you're up for the challenge, pick Heroic or Legendary. Heroic is the nicest way to go as enemies are tough but you can still kill them in multiple ways, but Legendary is the real "fuck you" challenge that you should absolutely not do your first time around if you want to enjoy this game. In all, I recommend Heroic to the average anon. Anonymous Quoted By: >>544009514 >>544007271Either Normal or Legendary. Heroic doesn't feel different enough from Legendary. Anonymous Quoted By: >>544010241 >>544009026What are you smoking? The gap between Heroic and Normal is smaller than the one between Heroic and Legendary. Anonymous Quoted By: >>544018578 Heroic so you're not constantly getting mapped by Jackal snipers but you're also not an unstoppable killing machine even with shit weaponOG graphics because the new ones ruin the atmosphere of some levels Anonymous Quoted By: >>544010441 >>544007271Well considering remastered hitches and stutters like crazy on PC, classic Anonymous Quoted By: >>544009514Didn't feel like that to me. I've done LASO too. If you're fucked in Legendary, you're nearly always fucked in Heroic too. Anonymous Quoted By: You should reconsidering playing this game. Anonymous Quoted By: >>544009729how bout you get a better pc? time to ditch out the old sandy bridge i5 buddy Anonymous Quoted By: >>544018578 Why is there no way to use the new graphics and old soundtrack? Anonymous Quoted By: >>544007271Legendary if you don’t you are a faggot. Anonymous Quoted By: >>544018740 >>544007271Heroic is the intended difficulty.Remastered graphics are best on 1, but they make you realise the repetition in level design a lot more.Needlers are great against flood Anonymous Quoted By: >>544007271Halo 2 is the only campaign in the series (CE-Reach) that is more fun on normal because it's very poorly designed Anonymous Quoted By: saads Anonymous View SameGoogleImgOpsiqdbSauceNAO Halo 2 mcc missing visual effects.jpg, 3MiB, 1920x3780 Quoted By: >>544018661 >>544019043 I have a bunch of resources for people new to the Halo games here:>each game in the series and what they do good and bad here:: https://arch.b4k.co/v/thread/491764826/#491777582 and here: https://arch.b4k.co/v/thread/454286615/#454290407>of novels here: https://arch.b4k.co/v/thread/518545241/#518600906 and here (in more detail but excluding the first few, that is Fall of Reach, The Flood, First Strike, and Ghosts of Onyx): https://arch.b4k.co/v/thread/382611573/#382614809;>and gameplay tips and PSAs about your first time through each game here: https://arch.b4k.co/v/thread/542016740/#542018321 https://arch.b4k.co/v/thread/540483886/#540490286So I would consult those.Tl;dr:- If you have expirence with other FPS games and are decently competent, try for Heroic difficulty. This applies to every Halo game, as Heroic is what the games are designed around (contrary to what "normal" would imply) and are almost universally considered to have the best balance of fun and challenge. If Heroic is too much for you, drop it down to normal. - Halo 2's new graphics are much more faithful then CE's, so you can generally play in new graphics. However, there are some music tracks that are totally changed in the new graphics mode due to liscensing reasons, so on the missions "The Arbiter" and "Gravemind", for the former during the ending Banshee segment, and for the latter when you get to the room where Cortana says "you might wanna sit this one out" after the bridge with hunters on it, you'll want to switch to old graphics to hear the original tracks. You'll also know when those moments are because wierd prog rock will start to play>>544009631>>544007895>>544007721>>544007475The new graphics only change the artstyle and have geometry mismatch issues in CE, not Halo 2. Also for both CE and 2, the old graphics mode is missing some visual effects too, see pic, so even if you go with the original graphics it won't be 100% authentic anyways>>544012823Liscensng. Anonymous Quoted By: >>544018578I'll also add that you can change the graphics mode in real time for BOTH CE and 2, so there's really no reason to even autistic stick to either one mode or the other: Hit the back button and switch back and forth as you play to see how stuff is changed.I'd just err on using the original graphics mode as your "default" for CE (since in CE it does legitmately change the artystylw quite a bit), and the new graphics mode as byoue default for 2 Anonymous Quoted By: >>544014918I never found needlers useful against infection forms, but you're dead-on about their effectiveness against combat forms and carriers. Anonymous Quoted By: >>544007271Heroic, I enjoy Legendary but there are a lot of moments that are poorly thought out (see: jackal snipers) that just become a chore on legendary. You’ll get the most enjoyment from Heroic first time through. As for graphics, just go with why you prefer. I played as a kid but I enjoy the Anniversary graphics most of the time.
