Halo Online for PC announced - in Russia Only Though
Halo Online will launch this spring, only in Russia. It's designed to run well on lower-end PCs. There's no campaign mode, but the game is set on a secret UNSC space station called "Anvil" where Spartans train together and test new technology.
Microsoft today announced Halo Online, a PC-exclusive free-to-play title that will launch in Russia only. Click to enhance. The development of the game will be handled by Saber Interactive, who previously helped develop Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary edition and the recently released, Halo: The Master Chief Collection. 343 Industries will oversee the project. Halo Online will be based after the events of Halo 3. It will feature classic weapons and vehicles from previous Halo games, as well as a bout of fan favorite maps. The game will be powered by a modified version of the Halo 3 engine. As of yet, Microsoft has no plans to release the game outside of Russia.

Fair enough. Its fun to play around on though. I didnt expect to... i dont know, feel? the way i would when seeing what is basically h3 mp, on the PC, in 1080p+ running so well.
It was exactly how id imagine it being. Awesome.
I can understand how ms cant see how much they'd make by releasing this series on pc.
Give the pc community H3mp, proper pc hardware support, driver forced AA and even skip the dx11/12 added "features" and they'd make a killing. Imo, it's be massive in the sense of what we havent seen since doom was first released on pc back in the 90's.
To me, h3 is the closet a mp game has come to perfection. Only Q3A and UT come close.
I think I have to go with Halo Reach being the best, only because of the newer Forge mode in it.
Halo does have an amazing MP experience though, I have never had a bad experience with MP and Halo. Only hours and hours of fun! Even in Halo PC pistol sniping!
