At the SXSW Halo tournament, Microsoft revealed some new information about the PC version of Halo: The Master Chief Collection. According to the publisher, the PC test for Halo Reach, the first game that will come out on the PC, is almost ready to go and the sign ups for Halo Insider are currently open.
Microsoft claimed that the test is almost ready to be launched and, at this point, it only needs a large amount of signups. This test will take place on Steam and there will be a new Reddit AMA this Tuesday.
Furthermore, Microsoft revealed that Halo: The Master Chief Collection will not be a Play Anywhere game, though it is looking into options for current Xbox One owners of this collection (perhaps a discount?). Moreover, there won’t be cross platform support between the Xbox One and the PC version at launch.
343 Industries claimed that it wants to do such a thing, however it needs first to finish the games for the PC and it wants its community to tell them that they indeed want a cross platform feature.
Those interested can sign up for the Halo MCC PC Insider program by visiting its official website.

No hearing Sp4ctr0 Spencer crying on day one? Pre-order cancelled!
if it happens, i might buy it just to make a compilation of obliterating peasants to make low iq man child xbots cry.
Maybe I should send you footage of controller players absolutely shi+ing on PC players in Destiny pvp. But that might make you cry and ruin your day.
Please tell me you’re just trolling and don’t really believe that.
Why would you think I’m trolling ?
Can you show me these videos? I’d like to see how they do it.
On youtube, search for “Ace of Spades & Sniper 55 Defeat We Ran [Live] | Destiny 2 Black Armory”
I’m not allowed to post links without approval. You can find other videos of him playing with controller on PC.

so you have a 50 fov screen and a soft aimlock and you still manage to suck like this. buy me this game, i’m willing to play against this dude on money.
He’s one of the top ranked players on PC, plus he doesn’t die the entire match and you think he sucks ? lol he would mop the floor with you.
Also. 50 fov ? Are you blind ? That’s 105 fov. It’s the same as the max fov in Overwatch.
105 fov? did you pull that out of your anoos?he’s dog shet, you obviously haven’t seen good aim in your entire life. if you played on pc you would have.
1. That’s 105 fov. No, I didn’t pull that out of my anoos. I pulled that from the in game settings.
2. He has good aim ON CONTROLLER. If you never played controller, it looks weird to you. It’s not like he misses many shots. You just think he doesn’t have good aim because your brain isn’t used to movement on controller.
3. I know what good aim looks like because I have it. I’m not the best but I’m pretty good at most shooters I play. I don’t track my stats in other games but In Destiny 2 I’m in the top 3% of players and an 80% sniper rifle accuracy. That means head shots. Body shots don’t count towards the accuracy stat. I play mouse and keyboard personally, btw.
4. I play on PC every day. In case you’re gonna accuse me of lying about playing on PC, here’s a photo I took the last time someone asked me to prove it on this website:
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/1f0d520e4dd9527df884dde56b81ca6cf1f337cce2a0d2a4d4a6dd3d6cb9ed72.jpg
accept my invite and let’s play a counter strike game and show me what good aim and movement mean. i’ll cap my monitor frequency and frame rate if you want (to minimum 60).
also i’m very certain that image is you pretending to some extend. (either you asked a friend or that box belongs to someone else or something that a desperate nerd would do to prove himself on the internet).
LMAO I faked the image, okay. Don’t know why it’s so hard for you to believe that I’m just a real gamer who plays both console and PC and I’m not dogmatic and fanatic about gaming platforms. I simply hate PC elitism and I have an appreciation for consoles because I believe they have great things to bring to the table.
I told you I’m not good at counter strike because I’m not familiar with how the bullet spread works. I’m sure you’re aware that even if I aim perfectly at your head, it’s not enough. I have to pace my shots a certain way. I tried CS GO once but found it boring and wasn’t interested in putting more time into it. Don’t know how fair it would be to brag about beating me in a game I have less than an hour of play time when you have almost 2000 hours played. Also, not really worth wasting time installing it to prove anything to you. If you get Destiny 2 I’ll take you up on your offer since I play it anyway and wouldn’t be much of an effort.
Btw, why would you cap your monitor at 60 ? As you can see in the image, I have a G sync 144 Hz/1440p monitor. I’m no stranger to high refresh rate gaming lol.
the fact that you’re so desperate to show is a good indicator. at best case scenario you’re a poor peasant who lives with his parents and is ok with spending his mcdonald salary on hardware and games.
” I’m sure you’re aware that even if I aim perfectly at your head, it’s not enough”
whatever that means. excuses, excuses. you’re just a shet talker.
You’re probably the one who is still trying to squeeze every bit of life out of his gtx 770 and calling me a peasant lol. That’s usually the “master race” type. They have a sh11t PC and can’t also afford a console alongside it. That’s why they hate consoles so much.
Quite a feat when Destiny, the game that you worship, isn’t even on PC!
Also, LOL at you as a Sony Pony seeking to switch the topic from Halo TMCC to Destiny.
Destiny 2 is on PC. I’m not switching the topic. I’m talking about console peasants beating PC players who think they are good at shooters just because they play on PC.
lol i would love to go against a console peasant in a MP game wait i already do with my xim 4 and let me tell you it’s a— whooping all the time but i would like to take them on pc native.dude do you have a rig ? becuase i would like to see you use a controller VS me using a mouse and keyboard
if you have destiny 2 I would gladly play with you controller vs m+k and teach you some manners. My controller skills are a bit rusty since I haven’t practiced in quite a while but shouldn’t be an issue against the casuals on this website.
Nice straw man.
do you want to play against me in csgo with a controller?i’m willing to bet up to $100k if you’re interested. we’ll play best out of 16.
any day, any player with a controller.

I’m pretty sure even if CS GO has controller support, they don’t allow aim assist for controllers, so that would be pointless. But you would probably beat me at CS GO even on a mouse since I haven’t played CS since 1.6 and I’m not really familiar with the weapon recoil and bullet spread mechanic. It’s not just about aiming.
you say peasants are equal to pc players on keyboard and mouse but you cry about lack of aim assist at the same time.
You need aim assist on a controller. Nobody is denying here that controllers are an inferior input for shooters. Aim assist helps to put them on something close to an equal playing field. It’s not a crutch since the input method is already so disadvantaged. The discussion is about player skill.
yeah now all of a sudden discussion is about player skill that is not possible to measure and compare on two different type of controls. well, one thing is for sure, you peasants would get obliterated by pc players that aren’t 12(or under) or new to pc gaming.
Whatever you have to tell yourself to sleep better at night.
with aim assist? that’s the main problem here, no need for the system to babysit me, play without it and let us know how it went. Or give it to ALL the players (I tried KM+M on cronusmax on PS4, technically the aim assist still kicks in….. it’s just ridiculous how WAY too easy it is haha!)
Since thumbsticks are way less precise you need aim assist on controllers. But since you felt the need to use a cronusmax, you obviously didn’t have the necessary skill to use a controller even with the aim assist, hence no babysitting is involved and player skill is required.
I use the cronusmax to be able to play with my g27 wheel on the ps4(didnt want to invest in a g29 yet), but I was curious to see if adding aim assist to a km+m setup like a controller would give that great of an advantage, And it does!
But its fine, your answer was “thumbsticks are less precise”, so kb+m is better, just wanted to make sure you knew that.
I hope there’s cross platform in the future
The wailing of children, be them 12 or 30 years old, never ceases to amuse.
I wonder what happened to SpecTr0?
He might be locked away in an Asylum somewhere.
Isn’t that the guy whole claimed the xbox one x was some beast when it contains a tablet like CPU?
SpecTr0 made so many silly claims. He might have. I will forever remember him as claiming that the XBox One X was superior to the 1080 Ti because it had more RAM. lol
I don’t know but he’s a big Sony fan and I think he just likes to come here to troll PC gamers.
signed up and ready
I’m getting prepared…

that’s a big rat
Doesn’t look like Tim Sweeney to me!
lol
Looks like Stwert Little if he played WoW all day.
“Moreover, there won’t be cross platform support between the Xbox One and the PC version at launch.”
Well, duh. If there was cross-platform play at release Xbox player would be massacred! It’s probably for the best that Xbox and PC MCC players stay segregated. 😉
Youtuber cultofmush confirmed Xbox Gold not required, I can hear the fanboy’s squirming already.
I’m always down for more PC support. However, Microsoft would be messing up pretty big if they don’t update the console version with this new M&K support they have. Crossplay should happen whenever they figure it out, but lets at least give console players a chance to fight back. Plus just a smoother game to play for campaign.
there is no reason to buy a xbox console anymore except to give xbox 3b a year in xbox live money….rip xbox.
