Oh my god the Mantis sounds fucking raw.

 

[Biggzy]

Every time I see the mantis, I think of Robocop 2.

 

[TrounceX]

Invisible ranks was always the best solution.

As long the system matches me up with equally skilled players I couldn't care less about a number next to my name.

 

[squidhands]

Holy crap, how do you miss the Mantis with the laser?

 

[thezerofire]

oh wow, they took down that ledge under the rock arch on Valhalla

 

[Redford]

Sad that Valhalla will never play the way it used to with the Mantis focus. And I'm pretty sure they'll be reluctant to remove it in MM. =/

 

[Satchel]

Ok, while I suspected everything about Monumentals post already, reading it from someone who has played through the whole thing has just sent me into hyperdrive.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

 

[Silly.Mikey]

The sounds are amazing.

 

[Hypertrooper]

Holy crap, how do you miss the Mantis with the laser?

How did Tashi miss the Mantis with the Railgun?

 

[ProtoCents]

Metal Gear

 

[MaritalWheat]

DAT GHOST SOUND. MN wasn't lying.

 

[NullPointer]

Invisible ranks was always the best solution.

Agreed 100%

Now if only they'd remove all in-game references to KDR I'd swoon.

 

[feel]

The mantis looks so menacing when you see one walking in the distance. Very cool.

If they come I hope they limit them to something like 2 maps per environment to avoid the over-saturation of Forge from Reach.

Yup, wouldn't actually mind having them there if they make up a just a very small % of the entire selection of maps in a given playlist.

 

[Kud Dukan]

The audio may actually be more impressive than the visuals IMO.

 

[ZROCOOL]

Mantis got taken down quick

 

[Conor 419]

Agreed 100%

Yeah but let's face it, it doesn't really exist.

 

[Cetra]

Good lord the sound effects are amazing.

 

[Zoolader]

No,there was backlash for AA and its still in.

AA... armor abilities?

 

[Franklinator]

This doesn't look very fun, it's like BTB Heavies with a flag.

 

[Redford]

Lol at the warthog getting hit by the nade.

Binary rifle has the most terrifying sound effect of all when scoping. Perfect.

 

[Kud Dukan]

Mantis got taken down quick

Considering how powerful it looked from the promotional videos, it looks pretty balanced here.

 

[Baconsammy]

The zoom sound on that promethean weapon is awesome.

This doesn't look very fun, it's like BTB Heavies with a flag.

We have different definitions of fun. This looks amazingly fun.

 

[Dug]

Dat zoom-in noise.

 

[Slayer-33]

Dat zoom-in noise.

God dayum

 

[BackdoorBeauty]

KZZL CHOKE

 

[Gr1mLock]

And this is the reason i dislike the slayer pro loadouts. The LR would be a perfect versatility weapon and would make shit interesting. But whatever, sterilize 'high level' play again.

 

[Silly.Mikey]

Yeah but let's face it, it doesn't really exist.

What they could do is put (on your Halo card or on waypoint) percentages of points per game, kills, assists, defends, flag grabs, etc... like that you'd still see your skill level compared to other players. Like in Basketball. Top performers type thing.

 

[Fracas]

This looks like Heavies but half the players quit out.

 

[Kud Dukan]

This stream just got a lot creepier.

 

[RebornYeti]

Man I wish I could be watching this stream right now.

I'm not even mad about ranks though. I just need this game now.

 

[Zoolader]

damn that wolf-bear-man is creepy.

 

[DrBo42]

damn that wolf-bear-man is creepy.

So creepy.

 

[feel]

Late, but that jump height..

 

[Cake Boss]

Terrible defense, shoot the driver.

 

[Baconsammy]

I'm happy about ranks. If not having them removes the bullshit that was happening before, they made an awesome decision.

 

[Demoncarnotaur]

The Mantis looks like a very fun to use vehicle.

On another note, am I crazy or is there a glitch where sometimes sounds don't happen for certain effects?

--

Blah I wanna see Abandon or another map that we really haven't seen a lot of.

 

[RdN]

Liked what I saw from the Mantis.. Looks great for defending the base, but not overpowered.

 

[DeadNames]

4sk flagnum.

Deal with it, BR.

 

[Domino Theory]

Wish rukari would've gotten a kill with the Binary Rifle. It's one of the funnest power weapons in the game.

 

[ElzarTheBam]

Liked what I saw from the Mantis.. Looks great for defending the base, but not overpowered.

Yeah, I was surprised in regards to how fast that warthog stripped its shields.

 

[TheOddOne]

"Currently we are committed to the flag carrier being committed!"

TU incoming.

 

[squidhands]

How did Tashi miss the Mantis with the Railgun?

Maybe the Mantis has some sort of magical ability to make people miss.

 

[Slayer-33]

DAT FUCKING MAIN MENU

 

[feel]

Theater is locked, what.


edit-

That spartan looks badass standing there. 3d backgrounds.. <3

 

[Devin Olsen]

Wish rukari would've gotten a kill with the Binary Rifle. It's one of the funnest power weapons in the game.

Only two shots in the clip though... Is it a one hit kill (regardless of where you hit them?) if not it seems kind of weak vs the human sniper.

 

[L1NETT]

"Currently we are committed to the flag carrier being committed!"

TU incoming.

One can hope.

Gimme gimme gimme some more options!

 

[Franklinator]

Theater is locked, what.

Maybe you have to be online to use it?

 

[Mr Jared]

Glad you're all enjoying the stream! We're having a blast here at 343 today. Definitely worth the trip up to play some Halo 4 with these guys.

 

[Izayoi]

Theater is locked, what.

Maybe you have to beat campaign first...?

 

[TheOddOne]

Maybe the Mantis has some sort of magical ability to make people miss.

He was trying to score a date with Bravo.
