HALO CE: Mission Selection

[☯UrKungFuNoGood☯]

So I learned that there are collectibles and I'm 1/3 of the way through the game.
I can't go back and replay a previous mission level without losing latest progress???
What the &%$#?
I suddenly remember why I hate consoles and will never buy one.

You would only lose checkpoint progress of the mission you are currently on. After you replay the previous missions for the collectibles, you can always restart at the beginning of your current mission. Furthermore, missions don't usually take long to play anyway.

What the ♥♥♥♥ does that have to do with anything?

If you've ever played a game designed to be played on PC you know you can actually save a game and not be confined to checkpoint progress and single progression save systems.
You should try it out some time.

Just finish the game on your current run and then you can always replay the campaign on easy with some silly skulls just for fun and go for collectibles. It's what I'd do. They're all just cutscenes anyway.

Though I do agree it would sometimes be nice to have at least one save slot, even if it's one save per mission on difficulties higher than Easy, sucks to lose progress just because you have to go do something else at some point. Halo could certainly do that, checkpoints essentially work like automatic quick saves as opposed to a soft reset.

Damn, it must be really hard to be you and put up with these incredibly minor inconveniences.

Must be nice to be you with no responsibility for time other than wasting it repeating things playing a game.

Nice necro just to make a comeback. But if your time is that precious, why are you wasting it playing video games in the first place? We’re talking some 20 minutes of time lost just to catch up to where you previously were in a mission.
