Halo MCC on PC
March 16th, 2019, 15:19
Fellas..
I can't be the only one rocking Gothic but still excited for the Halo games coming to PC! Who else is ready to see Halo modernized, revved up to 4K and hear that familiar orchestral intro blast through a soundbar? Not to mention the fun they were online! Personally - I'm stoked!

It will be available on Steam! I wish I could relate with your complaint, but in all honesty I don't understand your beef. Literally, what's a universal app and why does that discredit the titles?

What's my Beef I use the LSTB branch without the bloatware = no windows store.
State of Decay 2 on the PC is a Universal Windows Platform App game.

All I want to hear is keyboard+mouse and there is absolutely no word about it.
In some perfect world it shouldn't be a question at all, sadly, thanks to insulting ports, it is.

Just to make it clear only thing we'll need in order to play Halo: MCC is an Xbox Live account, which can quickly created free of charge on Xbox'x site.
More details on: Do I need an Xbox Live account to play Halo: The Master Chief Collection on PC?

Bear in mind, though, that the LTSB build of Windows is not meant for naughty home users - it's only licensed for Enterprise use. All legit home versions of Windows would allow you to use the Windows Store.

No Cortana, no game telemetry, and no apps I don't need & can't un-install.
(Just like WIN7 before this whole windows as a service model)

Sure, and good luck to you. All I'm saying is that of all the criticisms leveled at the Microsoft store, the fact that some people can't access it is a bit misleading - anybody running the legit versions of Windows intended for home users do have that facility.

Well I have more problems with the Windows store then just sobbing I can't access it. I hate the whole model especially the Universal App games Microsoft embraced.
Even developers hate it and most have skipped the windows storefront.
(Also have flashbacks to the failed Windows Live storefront client.)

Other than the first game, are the SP campaigns worth much?
P.S. I had to actually search to see if Microsoft Store is on my PC. It's TINY and completely not worth getting some hacked up / stolen version of Windows just to not have it. As for Universal Apps, they are actually getting used quite a bit. They just aren't very good for games.

Not sure how I missed that announcement. I've only played the first game in the series, but I quite enjoyed it. This is a nice surprise.
