Back in High School, we had the Halo Demo saved to our cloud storage, and all throughout the day like 5 games of 32 people were playing

[–]respectwalk 10 points11 points ago

Back in high school cloud storage didn't exist... Neither did Halo... But in freshman year of college we would connect our xboxes together with cables and have massive battles!

[–]BullpenCatcher 1 point2 points ago

LAN parties on the original xbox.. warms the heart with nostalgia. If you look at my college transcript you can see a distinct dip in my GPA when Halo was around.

[–]HydroMagnet 4 points5 points ago

Same deal at our high school! Either you live in south GA, or that was a common thing.

[–]GodzillasPride 2 points3 points ago

Nah, my home base is in Louisiana.

[–]FRAGM3NT 2 points3 points ago

My coworkers and i still play unreal 10x a day - Bloodgulch one of the most common maps. So fun.

[–]mulimulix 2 points3 points ago

Well, we did the same thing in Australia! Whenever we would start a game, we'd start talking out loud, saying "No 'shees" and the teacher wouldn't have a clue what we were talking about.

I wish I had a picture of my friends house in high school, we had 4 tvs set in different rooms, 4 xbox's and 16 people! His parents hated us on the weekends it became more of a party! Girls even came! We had 100 foot cables ran upstairs, downstairs in the den! Fucking miss those days!!

[–]TheFrancais 2 points3 points ago

What's better is to have all those TVs in the SAME room. You can talk shit so much more easily.

[–]ScreamingAloudInside 3 points4 points ago

Ah that Halo PC demo... I wish more demo's contained their best multiplayer map and campaign level. Sure beats a 1 to 2gb download for a ten minute text heavy demo of the tutorial level. Although demo's for multiplayer centric games that give you free reign for XX minutes aren't too bad.

[–]NegimaSonic 2 points3 points ago

I did this except it was via USB drives. (This was in 2008). I even learned you could download mods for some of the stages and maps in the demo.

Though the downside was I think the year after I left high school, they stopped allowing people to run foreign exes so it might partially be my fault. Sorry future generations 7

[–]Rexxhunt 3 points4 points ago

You probably do not need this info now, but if you rename the foreign .exe to a whitelisted program such as explorer.exe or word.exe it will launch

[–]NegimaSonic 0 points1 point ago

hmm...I wonder, I thought they had it pretty solid after that, still, interesting tip. Hope I never have to use it XD

[–]Widdis 2 points3 points ago

My junior year of high school, a new school opened up that you could apply for. It was mostly a tech school, but everyone signed up because you got a laptop for the year.

Within 2 days of the first semester, there was a copy of Halo flying around that reached pretty much everyone.

The greatest thing was logging in and seeing 600 players in-game. The school only had like 1500 students.

[–]Kattaklysm 1 point2 points ago

We used to do this too! So many epic games were had, that and CS1.6 portable

[–]darth_mango 1 point2 points ago

We downloaded Halo onto our computer lab computers and would play LAN games all the time, it was really awesome.

[–]erratically_sporadic 1 point2 points ago

We actually had a math teacher that had an xbox in his office and we'd go in at lunch and play Halo. WTH, crappy school!

Exactly what I was thinking when I saw the original post. How could any true Halo player not put Blood Gultch as #1.

[–]malardanova 3 points4 points ago

Cabooses first line: I go how are you gonna get the tank to the planet and then he goes I'm just gonna pit it on the ship and then I go if you have a ship big enough for a tank why not put guns on the ship and use it instead

Hey guys, anyone here remember Halo?

[–]Br0IGotToMaintain 1 point2 points ago

the best mode in halo is everyone has active camo permanently, everyone has only sniper rifles.

you can't just shoot everywhere cause ppl will see you or discover your location via radar and shoot you. makes for some intense games. system link that shit

[–]bigmeech 1 point2 points ago

yeah please just post screenshots of maps and clog up my shit instead of posting it in the comments

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

How is it [FIXED]? Some people spent more time on the other map than on this one.

[–]MrBunnySlippers 1 point2 points ago

The good ol' days of Blood Gulch. Yelling at your friends in the other room playing linked systems. Then watching Red vs. Blue, and then more Blood Gulch. Damn good times.

This one time, I was, like, running around. And then, uh, there was, like, my friend, and he was all, y'know, launching rockets at me so I jumped. The only problem was, like, I jumped into the rocket and stuff. Yeah.

[–]skeptix 2 points3 points ago

Me and a smoking buddy in high school had our own game within the game. Each person would get a warthog, then we'd take turns grabbing the rocket launcher. Then the game would begin.

The original goal was to flip the other person's warthog so they auto-abandon. Once this was done, the flipper's goal was to kill the person now on the ground. The flippee's goal was to rocket launcher the flipper before getting run the fuck over. Whoever killed the other got a point, rinse and repeat.

[–]Advicetruck 2 points3 points ago

Yeah man, used to do this too, except it was splatter kills instead. Learned a lot about the rules of which hog would bounce depending on speed, direction etc, which was awesomely handy at LAN parties.

[–]grannys_forsaken 0 points1 point ago

yes. i did this with my brothers for countless hours. if you turned your jeep just right and dipped one of its front corners under the middle of their oncoming jeep it was a guaranteed flip every time. naturally when they knew this things became complicated again

[–]Advicetruck 0 points1 point ago

Yeah, and from memory the slower Hog ALWAYS flipped. Didn't matter where you got it. When you were playing chicken, sometimes it was easier just to take the hit, do a barrel roll over the other Hog, then try get behind him. Ahhh, memories...

[–]ThirdTimeRound 1 point2 points ago

Co-op on CE always devolved into flipping our Hogs or blowing them sky-high for me.

[–]GreenPlasticJim 0 points1 point ago

[–]Blamemeta 1 point2 points ago

If r/gaming likes Halo 1, why don't we just go play it? I mean, the multiplayer is still going, and there is about 1000 players still on there, every night. Also, pirated multiplayer works.

[–]zman0728 0 points1 point ago

It is interesting, after seeing the earlier Halo 2 related post, I booted up Halo 2 for some multiplayer. However, there are hardly any people on there any more in comparison to Halo 1.

One of the best methods for getting the flag was to drive the warhog INTO THE FUCKING BUILDING, it's a tight fit, but you can get all the way in.

Hardly ANYONE would ever catch on, and you would get so many road kills in the building.

It was really ridiculous

So many memories, me and a few friends would it up on Halo CE get on skype and raise havok, to jumping across the map with the flag in C.T.F and rapidly shot down. Heck it's why I got this user name, because I was just so terrible at, my friends just said my gun may as well be loaded with crayons... Also, the Coldsnap, that map was awesome especially the jet fights.

[–]zman0728 1 point2 points ago

Take heart, I bought it several months ago on clearance at Best Buy for only $10, and I think that is a permanent pricing for the game.

I spent stupid amounts of time trying to figure out how to do drive a ghost all the way up and out of the map.....It was a momentous occasion when i finally succeeded - and then I failed out of college.

[–]mildxsalsa 0 points1 point ago

Hahaha or the version in Unreal Tournament this was based off of, spent a lot of time in both.

[–]grannys_forsaken 0 points1 point ago

big team battle on coagulation is without a doubt the finest console gaming i have experienced.

25+ kill streak with the sniper rifle and shotgun. 20 splatters in one life in the ghost. driving the enemy around in the jeep and helping him to massacre your team as they peck at your shields. dropping the bomb through the level. the eagle's nest. riding the banshee across the map with the flag/bomb. and playing the game it was supposed to be played was pretty fun too

nothing in halo 3 or later compares IMHO.

[–][deleted] -2 points-1 points ago

No.

No no no no no no no.

Do not start this bullshit.

Do not start a trend where every jerkoff in r/gaming posts their [FIXED] image of some multiplayer level they loved.
