Do I need to buy the $40 Master Chief Collection just to play Halo Reach?
It says that Halo Reach is DLC and that it requires Halo: The Master Chief Collection (which is $40) to play Halo Reach.

That's what I'm concerned about.

No, you can just pay for Halo Reach separately (10 bucks). Wait till they fix the store page though.

The entire MCC is $40, If you ONLY want to play Halo Reach, it's $9.99, same with the other games. Individual Halo games are $9.99, or you can just buy the entire thing for $40

So it’s $60 individually and $40 in the package?

Reach is a DLC. You need the base of MCC in order to play it.

The MCC is 40 dollars.

40 bucks is for whole package. I got it and it says i have all of them in library.

When you purchase Reach for 10 bucks, you get base MCC, without other games as other games are treated as DLC.

It’s better to buy the $40 package it looks like because it’s 6 games at $9.99 each otherwise. Unless you want to buy them as they become available and not commit $40 upfront. It’ll save you $20 in the end though.

Store page is glitched at the moment. They always intended the capability of buying what you want. They haven't used the steam storefront often have they? They need to set Halo Master Chief Collection included with the purchase of Halo:Reach to fix the issue they have with the storefront currently. Other issues currently is that each game separately has the pricetag of the collection by itself. If you tried purchasing Halo 3 right now for example, it'd tell you it'd include every game in the collection.

Untrue. $40 get's you MCC, which is all 4 games. You can also buy them separately as they release for $10 each.
Go look at the store for Reach. It says you need MCC in order to play.

It's clearly an error. This was covered months ago.
I know it was covered, that every game can be purchased individually, but it doesn't matter. Unless they set the MCC to be a free game, there's literally noway to bypass this. That's just how Steam works.

The MCC was supposed to be free, and act as a hub, and you would buy the games as DLC.

They need to make MCC itself free.

What do you mean Facepalm? Go look at the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ SteamDB. Halo MCC has been listed as free this entire time. Stop acting like you're right.

Dude, look at the store page again.

"Purchase The Master Chief Collection Bundle or individual titles for access to available game content."

It's $40 for the entire package, or $10 per game.
I. Know. The. Games. Are. Individually. Purchasable.

That's not the point.

MCC was supposed to be a free program, from which you would buy the games individually. It would remedy the "requires base game in order to play." And fix all confusion.
