If you're a college student, there is a good chance you can get it for free if your school has Dreamspark from MS.

crosspost myself from the Microsoft E3 thread
Halo: Spartan Assault IS THE NEXT ODST!
It'll feature the actual Halo 4 MP and the next Spartan OPS!!!
DING! DING! DING!
You all can thank 10th Jun ;D
So basically you save more money if you buy Windows 7 than upgrade to Windows 8 than just buying 8 by itself?

Last i checked, Windows7 home was about the same price in my area.
Yes but not everyone goes there. Some people go here: http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/product...dows-vista-or-windows-7-english/10224346.aspx
lolwut
I bought both copies of Win8 I am running right now for $80 at microcenter.
I am but a student, sensei.

windows 7 is "good enough"
okay with 30fps in FPS games
tells people to have standards

Yeah I'm a college student and I have W7 now. But I can't really swing that cash right now.
Hmm...any idea how I can find out if my school has it? Or have a guess at who I should talk to? Department wise or whatever. I'll probably have to wait until the school year actually starts again, but oh well.

I assume you have some sort of an online hub student log in where you can manage various aspects of your collegiate career. If you have dreamspark, I'd assumed it has to be linked somewhere in there for students (that's how it was for me).
Those are the jokes.
30fps eh?

Serenity framerate is really bad, how do I contact 343 to tell them to remove it from MM or checkup on the status of its immediate removal.
People last night were saying that map WON from a contest of other maps...lol.
Who is in charge of Halo currently? Why cant I be? I could at least make better choices.
This is all halo related.
Halo.
Sure.

Contact Tashi, I heard he's a CC.
I don't even know which map Serenity is lol.

Shitonitis seems to have recurring symptoms.
NP... I slept through the end of it. Not sure why they didn't just quit. There needs to be a surrender button.

Juices is blowing it out of proportion. It's 60fps or bust with him

CCs brushing off player criticisms, bad form! Juices, Yuhas and I all thought it was pretty bad.
As nice as it was in Halo3 i guess. It's when people are outside melee lunge distance that it is bad.

Played a couple games with the update. So far it seems better. I'm not sure about the automatics buff though. AR (and SAW) feels like a beast now.

Surprisingly better than I expected and for comparison.

You're right, sorry.
Framerate was not an issue during testing . I'm sorry that your experience has been less than optimal.
Also, I'm looking for Doubles feedback. Let me know some things that you like/dislike.
I think I know which ones, hadn't framerate problems back then, but I also dislike the maps and vote against it everytime it came up

Maybe someone else can check it here we play Serenity at 58 minutes and a few more times but I'm not sure when because computer at work loads so slow it wont play video I'm just going by slow loading single non moving frames.
However it might not show the issue that well because I stream at 60fps and I dont know how that converts onto JTV and showing these framerate issues.

The incorrect Spartan Assault logo should have been enough of a giveaway, horrible B-K and Halo 5 typography aside.
Who's on 4?
Yeah I thought it looked fake but it was released before Spartan Assault was announced if i'm correct so I thought that gave it some credibility. Thank god the Halo 5 logo doesn't look like that.
Spartan Assault domains were registered before that picture though, thats why the logo is a dead give away its fake. Someone saw the domains were registered and made a fake pic. They probably didn't think Spartan Assault was going to be announced so soon.

What is the respawn time on the sword on haven? Feels like its every 60 seconds.
I played Serenity tonight in TO - KoTH with two full teams of six... frame rate was choppy almost the entire game, especially when on the open end of the map moving back towards the inside and the closed end.
Edit to say: the play back must change it a bit... but there were definitely times you could see it chug. On your play back it looked significantly better than what I experienced tonight.

Kill times are definitely faster. BTB seems much deadlier now, especially with some of the new vehicles and weapons on-map. I keep forgetting the changes and I'll rush the Mantis with a PP and get demolished by the upgraded chaingun. I need to re-work my strategies.

Yeah the damage boost has helped against PP and Grenade spam

if I were being forced to make a list of things that I would bet my life on not happening, ODST 2 would be on there
