- Clip of playthrough of the Halo 2 e3 2003 build restored by the digsite team at HCS worlds 2024.
Might become playable on The Master Chief Collection on Steam on November 9th 2024
The original engine looked so beautiful, especially the lighting. For 2004 this would have been amazing
this recreation actually didnt have the stencil shadows (not yet at least), but we did see the original build showcased too.
343 has the demo. But theyre too busy to release it i guess
@@mmfood97I mean, they've got their hands full with the Infinite Store. 😂
@@mmfood97 they literally said Nov. 9th.
@@mmfood97 It is said that the H2E3 Demo runs in something that's not be able to run in neither Halo CE retail or Halo 2 retail; it's like its own sub-engine
It’s unbelievable how accurate to the original demo that this is, respect to them, they have worked incredibly hard
Right but the fact that it's only on PC feels like a stab in the back
When prior to the first Digsite release I thought the team was just being lazy because I had no idea just how much content there was, and various modders would stream themselves making their mods. After the first Digsite drop happened it opened my eyes to just how much cut content Halo has. It’s pretty crazy how so many of the things we see in future titles were originally meant for CE/2. That combined with stuff like C3Sabertooth’s videos animating Halo 2’s storyboards, and Vengful Vadam’s Halo 2 Uncut mod makes me realize just how unfinished Halo 2 is. Now I understand why Bungie say the game’s their biggest failure (the final product is still pretty good aside from the HORRIBLE Legendary difficulty. It just could’ve been so much more if Bungie weren’t constrained by hardware/time).
You should also watch the Halo 2 Making Of DVD if you can. It goes into the entire development cycle of Halo 2. It’s a miracle that Halo 2 even was able to release in the state it was in. Game was barely held together by duct tape. It’s great to see though since those days both 343 and the Halo community going through and bringing the cut content back into the game for MCC.
I love that sound of the long swords flying over the AA gun
I loved it when I was 11, love it now at 31 😍
Yes. 20 years later, but we’re getting it on the 20th anniversary!
Finally, the halo 2 I was promised (not to say the one we got wasn’t good, but I like this demo mission cus it really has an emphasis on the destruction on earth)
Since 2003 I’ve been waiting for this moment!! My inner 11 child is smiling ❤
I've always wanted to play Halo 2. The opening scene with the huge city is amazing.
bruh the gauss hog running over the friendly XD
Sacrifices must be made.
Brings a tear to my eyes bro, im so happy we're finally getting this mission 20 years later. Better late than never
Plays the song Hoobastank - The Reason in the background 1:25 people who have watched the halo 2 behind the scenes film would know the emotions.
Hope the gauss hog turret has blue explosion effects like in the original
im more curious of what the Ex bungie employees who made the OG demo think of this? nostalgic?
Mad that someone took their toys...id be..
@@xXzaydoggXx who knows. But ive been waiting 20 years for this day to happen. im sure lots of young and middle age adults who were young teenagers and kids back then too.
@@xXzaydoggXx I don't think any devs would be upset a gem of their work got released.
@@Macbravolive Once I saw the E3 demo in the Making of Halo 2 Documentary, I dreamed for a day that I would be able to play it. The single shot BR is amazing!
3:02 when talking about the warthog that splatters a jackal, splatters a human instead 🤣 Classic.
Brutes in Old Mombasa would have crazy hectic, like actually doing guerilla warfare in alleys.
This is so epic! I still remember the first time I saw this Halo 2 demo and BEGGED my mom for a copy of Halo 2 haha
November 9 ❤
I don't think the demo is going to be completely like the original demo (and cannot expect that exactly) since there will be small differences. But regardless this is pretty cool. Now you just have to play the demo at 30 FPS to make it more accurate.
Shame it was all smoke and mirrors. I remember watching the Halo 2 demo back when it first dropped and everyone lost their minds. I still love 2 in its current state but imagine if we got what bungie originally envisioned. The lighting makes a world of difference, the melee combo looks so smooth, the BR switching to single shot when zoomed. Too bad bungie's ambitions went beyond the console's limitations.
good thing then that we got Halo 2 Uncut 😊
@@MYNAMEISFROWNERit's only an approximation of the cuts
Wish they could make the lighting better like the original
So this will only be available on Steam as opposed to console? That sucks
They said at the moment
Exactly, this is not a good start for the new halo studio
Think if they can improve the lighting and character animation popping should be awesome!
Its pretty cool. But it would be nice to see it work in the MCC remastered campaign.
@@ShawnMosher it would be, but that would take a while and it wouldn't capture the original vision they were going for
@@TheRealQuenny I agree. Im pretty sure the original vision has been tanted even more sense then.
It's so good we want it in the MCC please @Microsoft😢
@@christianpiriot4640 November 9th on Steam
@@TheRealQuenny Would've been cool as a built-in extra though.
Did you not watch the video?
Cool, now bring back that unfinished sprint. I wanna flip the bird at the covenant while I'm running. 😂
i would love to see some earlier cut concepts restored too, like sprint and wall peeking as well as melee combos.
@@TheRealQuenny I would love to see the halo 2 human turrets being used in first person cause essentially it's the SAW from halo 4. It's a small profile & not requiring 3rd person mode like the other turrets.
the vengeful vadam is there playing the demo!!!!!!!!!
Better than any 343 game
D O P E
I hope this means 343 will continue updating mcc
slim chance, since the digsite team is pretty much only making mods
So he mentioned this is not coming to Xbox "for now", does that mean there is still a chance of it happening?
If people make enough noise
@@SIXminWHISTLE very slim chance but I can hope
Ok !!!
NOIIIIISE NOIIISE NOOOOOOIISE !!!!!!
!@@abunny6925
Rip Xbox players
Why’d you cut out the beginning? Ugh
@@BlatantThrowAway it's basically the same as the original but my recording software was acting up
