I'm in the same boat -- And my friend who I was gonna do launch night with won't be getting his Xbox until a couple days later!

Was thinking the other day... Do people ever use LFG sites for Shooters?
I wonder if there's any chance a variant of an LFG website could be efficiently used as a ersatz custom games browser.
Thinking of building one. Only if people think it could work though.

Judging by Destiny? No. It's just too cumbersome, even if it makes it easier to get exactly what you want, people'd rather just use matchmaking.

Isn't it just trolling scrubs who have the temerity to try to pick up the oddball on Swordbase?

Basically, with the added twist of putting the ball in the big center area by the purple grav lift, taking the high ground, and then slaughtering said scrubs as they sprint, jetpack, and sometimes crouch walk back to the killing zone over and over and over.
Hell yeah, do it. That'd be amazing.
I never got a PM from you bud, I saw you posted it here in the thread but I can't find a PM. mind sending it again?
Trolling scrubs was p much the only reason I played Reach after Squad Slayer was removed.

9pm launch for the digital version in my time zone
I'm still afraid that's a mistake and too good to be true, lol
Yes to the first part. As of today, no to the second.
Or going digital and playing it even earlier. Preloading is fucking great.

And it will be glorious! God, I'm so freaking excited. Not just for the MCC, but for that first look at Halo 5.
Yes to the first, but the 20 gig update isn't out yet. Should be in the next couple of days, though.

I already have it downloaded. What's all this about playing it early? How do you find out when it's playable in your time zone?
Edit: nvm, saw Tawp's post. Looks like I get it at 11pm instead of midnight.
The patch hasn't been finished yet, calm down.
We'll be able to preload it when it's done.

I believe so, and yes, as long as your console is in an "always listening" state, it should auto update. (Although I wish we could manually grab patches!)
EDIT: Beaten, badly.

Ugh, just found out I'm on call for launch night
At least it means I'm off on the 11th though, but I will be too sleep deprived to be competitive online. Campaign first then!

MAYBE.
Also reviewers are going to be able to show new content later on Wednesday, so yaaaay.
That reminds me, I need to bug my local Gamestop about the MCC midnight launch. The manager there confirmed they're doing a midnight launch, but I need to see if it's actually going to be a 12am launch or if it's going to be earlier in the night (my GS does that sometimes).
If it's actually midnight, I'm going to try to talk him into doing a 10pm launch instead since a) the digital copy unlocks at 11pm our time and not midnight and b) a 10pm launch will help the physical buyers get a jumpstart on that patch.
The boss at my gamestop is pretty cool, so he might just do that.
MAYBE.

Yay!
Tomorrow won't be entirely miserable!

I'm only getting my game on the 13th or 14th. The wait will be unbearable.
Brings a tear to my eye just thinking about it.

Will you still visit HaloGAF to feel the burn of envy in the interim?
It's pretty fun. Consists of joining 7 other people and doing about 4-5 small game modes followed by a horde mode at the end. The horde mode can get pretty damn intense with shit flying everywhere. It's balanced for 6 or more people, go with any less and its pretty much impossible.
Yes, it's ridiculous but you should play campaign until you unlock air boost at least

I actually liked Forge World: Asylum. Only issue was that it had that ugly green gray forge thing going on. Also, Solace was probably my favorite H4 map for team objective.

From the grave he strikes
Right after I get the Sunset Overdrive bundle for $315, this happens. Ughhh. Oh well, at least I got the nice white system I wanted.
So are we getting a Cragmire remake in MCC then?

I think Sunset will compliment the MCC better than COD:AW. I think you made the right choice.

At IGN headquarters Ryan is like "Well, we know Lockout and Blood Gulch will be 1 and 2 on our list. Let's just take all the other maps, throw them in a hat and go from their."
