Max. numbers of players for the campaign?

[W.A. the Anum]

As the title says. Im "Not" really sure if i remember correctly but i guess it WAS 2 players max?
(srsly its so long ago i dont remember anymore). So i would like to know how many players can play the campaign in the MC collection "Now"? Does someone know?

2 was the max for coop on the same xbox I believe, with 4 player coop being possible using online.

so 4 players are able to play the campaign online? that would be great tbh

4 across all games, except in CEA and 2A, which only accept 2.

2 players online coop for Combat Evolved Anniversary and Halo 2 Anniversary.

4 players online coop for Reach, 3, ODST and 4.

Ya that was how it was in Halo Reach, Halo 3, Halo 3:ODST and pretty sure in Halo 4 too. I'd imagine Halo 1 and 2 can be played with 4 player coop too, but not 100% sure about those ones.

thats kinda bit oddly made. so basicly, if we go from the releases now, We can play Reach 4 player coop but CEA AND H2A, the games which will be released AFTER Reach, will only have 2 player coop.

I hope you know and see where im going with this...

No way around it, CEA and 2A are older than Reach, that's why that limitation exists and is apparently unable to overcome.

Halo Combat Evolved and Halo 2 were the first 2 Halo games, Halo Reach was made later on and was a prequel to Halo Combat Evolved.

of course i got (and i knew that) you but again, its a bit stupit if you get noe reach and play with 3 of your buddys but next is CEA and now you can only play it with 1 buddy. i mean, yes, i understand that Halo 1 is techicly older than reach but, or the MC collection, they could have add 4 player coop for the both games which doesnt have one tbh...

The thing is, they couldn't.

which is slighty disappointing since first you play reach with 3 friends, get CEA and H2A which you can only play with one of your friends and that kinda a long gap... Im not mad now but its really a bit disappointing tbh here.

How is that stupid? If they could patch/update Halo 1 for 4-player online co-op I'd imagine they would have, but it wasn't feasible.

Doesn't matter that Reach is "earlier" in the timeline, it was made LATER in reality and thus was properly coded for allowing four-player in a way that 1 and 2 were not.

Wait until modders break that limit and make it 16 players coop

dude. i know that
reach came out when? close after halo 3? i duno. Im talking about the order as how youre able to play with friends COZ of the cronological order - NOT of the release order. I played pretty much every halo game (ex. halo 4) back in the day, thats why i asked coz im not sure anymore.

So yes, it is kinda a shame if you play -now- a game which was made later than halo 1, Halo Reach, with 4 player coop but after that, you play 2 games in a row with only 1 friend.

Thats what i mean. IF they would have patched Halo 1 & 2 with 4 player coop camp. it would be really nice tbh - if its even possible.

Even thought the campaign is set as 4 player on 3, odst, 4, and reach. people will likely find a way to mod it to 5 or more players.

As for CE and 2, they'll first figure out modding for 3 and 4 player then move to the 5+. but none of the increased player counts will be official things.
