Looks shockingly like WoW...:(

[thehoodedsmack]

It's been discussed in the "WHAT!?!" thread, but perhaps it deserves its own. Yeah, good thing it was never released imo.

E : hoodedsmack beat me. In that case,


Thank god this never came to fruition. Not Halo in the SLIGHTEST.

Though some of the brute shot/carbine concepts were nice...

E : Might wanna add some lines between the pics, it's stretching the thread.

I especially like that white carbine, but idg how you would even hold the gold one 0_o

[ultama121]

Yeah, as everyone else was saying, this is not Halo. It looks like a mix between WoW and Mass Effect or something.

[Lateksi]

I didn't make a new thread because I wasn't sure if there was one already. No. I can't trust in search button.

Anyways, this project would have been pretty nice but to get to that they should have redone many things. It looks too much like some other games.

[Sel]

MICROSOFT TOLD YOU TO MILK HOW MUCH OFF THE SERIES BEFORE LETTING IT GO???

[FlyingStone]

That red carbine looks sexy..

:fapfapfap:

[Hotrod]

*sigh* No, this is just...no. The idea of it is too much, and it isn't Halo. However, those weapons do look nice.

[Warsaw]

The guns look Mass Effect-ish.

However, the idea of a Halo MMO is just failure of epic proportions.

[TeeKup]

A Halo MMO wouldn't make sense. But I am loving that white carbine.

[Heathen]

SAME HERE. I like that one and the Red one. As far as the brute thingies, I like the white one, red one, and green one.

[L0d3x]

Damn, they actually thought they could put MANA in halo?
It wouldn't make sense, a MMOFPS on the other hand *drools*

[Needles]

Looks like a bad rip-off a WoW.

But the carbine and brute shots look really nice.

[Heathen]

MMOFPSFTWWOO

E: Although life is basically a MMOFPSIRLFTWWOO


Looks like a good rip-off WoW.

[Lateksi]

LOL gotta sig that.

[ICEE]

Most of the atrocities unto god carbine variants look too humanized. The gold one looks like the inbred love child of a carbine and its mother.

[jngrow]

I like the gun variants. When I saw the random holo-blades and that random chick and shit, I died a little. I'm glad it was canceled.

[ICEE]

The only gun varients I like are the white carbine (:bandwagon:) and the top 'brute shot' pistol weapon

[Cortexian]

HALO themed MMORPG could be very good, as long as they designed it properly in the right time line (Pre-XBOX series, Harvest era).

[The_Wraith]

That game looks fucking terrible. So glad it never really saw the light of day. The Brute Shot/Carbine models are sexy so at least something good came out of it. Someone get on that for the mod scene.

[DaneO'Roo]

Those weapons really are all fucking nice looking, but god dam a MMO?

A First person mmo MAYBE. Only if it was done right and not gayed up with the shit all MMOs actually have.

Also, lmao, I bet I know why this MMO got canceled:


Cause Peter Jacksons already doing one :o

[Sel]

I believe my first post summed up the topic >__>

WAT.

Christ, some most of that stuff is terrible :gonk:

How they ever thought this would work is beyond me.

[klange]

I have the same problem with this as I had with Casino Royale. Now, CR was a good movie, but it was a horrible Bond movie. This probably could have been a good game, but it would have been a horrible Halo game.

[343guiltymc]

Did Ensemble know ANYTHING about Halo back when they were developing this?

[Lateksi]

That stuff looks really cool and two of them actually got some forerunner style on them. But it still doesn't look like Halo! I'm glad this project was canceled because the developer didn't even understand how the game should have been done.

[Sargent_Hawk]

LOL the bottom one looks like the nerf long strike.
The third one looks like a sniper rifle AR mix.

[ultama121]

Woah, the characters are almost UT like. 0_o

[Heathen]

LOL the bottom one looks like the nerf long strike.
The third one looks like a sniper rifle AR mix.

A snipAR?


E: Um...Female Spartan needs to cover up. Wtf is the point of armor with holes in the chest.
Covie Rockets hurt my brain.
What the effuck?

Also, http://kotaku.com/assets/images/gallery/9/2008/09/medium_2882400925_f2daaf2f80_o.jpg
No.

But if this game did come out, I would so be a technician.

E:Guys....make.

[TeeKup]

Scorpion Venom looks epic. That hog looks like crap.

[SnaFuBAR]

WTF :gonk:

[TeeKup]

That picture makes no sense.

[SnaFuBAR]

if i find the time i might make a couple of the covie vehicles.

[mech]

I saw a couple of shemales in that gallery.

[Pooky]

WTF :gonk:

At first I thought you were WTF'ing at the Lego Batman picture, and I was going to agree

[TeeKup]

Lego Batman? :gonk:

[Choking Victim]

http://kotaku.com/photogallery/halommoconcepts/1003718031

...What the fuck.

that guy on the left obviously would never fit through the standard door width. Whoever made these concepts needs to take an anatomy class...unless the artist is as oblong as that illustration. :|

[SnaFuBAR]

the chick looks like an anorexic junkie

[Botolf]

Haha, I can just imagine friends of the artists swiping their paper pads and uploading all this to the internets.

[DaneO'Roo]

The sniper concepts and tank coincepts are awesome.

[Heathen]

Scorpion Venom looks epic. That hog looks like crap.

Srs? I hated those. I hated them all.

[Arteen]

The Brute Shots, Carbines, and chubby dropship look nice, but everything else is entirely un-Halo.

[Hotrod]

You think those are WTF, wait until you look at this : http://kotaku.com/photogallery/halommoconcepts/1003717703

Now that, my friends, is what the fuck...times 5


The Brute Shots, Carbines, and chubby dropship look nice, but everything else is entirely un-Halo.
Agreed, except for maybe 1 or 2 of the Armors I saw.

[Heathen]

Love both the dropship variations.

And yes. Wtf at those greymatters. This isn't fucking Ben 10.

E: Look at him and my sig...

wtf.... demons? Since when were DEMONS in H A L O!

[Hotrod]

Let's put this all into one sentance : If they would have made this game, it wouldn't have been Halo since they have too many aspects from fanatasy, and all the sci-fi stuff just isn't right for the universe.

Or let's make it shorter : It just isn't Halo

Or maybe shorter than that : WHAT THE FUCK?!

Shorter you say? : WTF?!

They would have also ruined the storyline, since they'd have to explain where all the non-Halo aliens came from, and why there are a million Spartans running around killing each other.

[Sargent_Hawk]

WTF, ths can't be true, Halo is NOT a game about magic and leveling up shit!
This isin't halo, this is people acting stupid and trying to take halo and turn it into something else.

[Hotrod]

Well, not stupid people, since Ensemble is a great company, and their staff is as well, but I agree with the other part.

[mech]

wtf.... demons? Since when were DEMONS in H A L O!

Master Chief was a demon :tinfoil:

[Heathen]

basically what everyone is saying is:

It wouldn't make a good HALO game but it would have maybe been a good game.
On that note, some of those weapons and vehicles are pretty snazzy.

That about sum it up?

[Hotrod]

Yes it does.
