Should have numbered the thread.
Either way good job fracas

I don't regret going the direction I did for this gen, but missing out on the MCC stings quite a bit. Looks (and sounds) wonderful. I'd have been there day zero.
I can update the title on request, just let me know Fracas. "Halo OT20: Your Mom is Fat and Your Work is Useless" has a certain ring to it.
Stinkles - Do send a flare my way (or to any mod/admin) if you are seeing things that are out of line. We work hard to combat the kind of caustic stuff you are describing, but it's an impossible task given the size of the forum; we can't read every thread and post. We've been a bit more hands-off with HaloGAF recently but I'll be watching as MCC launches. (Ahem.) Any questions or concerns about moderation please shoot a PM to any of the mod team.

-reads GUNGNIR in song title-
yes! keep recognizing my baby! :'D
GUNGNIR variant for life.
The music, as expected, is the literal definition of awesome.
Isn't it just Soundcloud? Though I agree it is a well made player.

Ryan at IGN (the dude handling a lot of the MCC updates) posted on his twitter that Halo CE gameplay is coming this week.

People seem to want a number, so feel free to chuck it on. 20 should be the number we're on, but I'm not sure. I liked the infinity symbol I had there to begin with lol.I don't regret going the direction I did for this gen, but missing out on the MCC stings quite a bit. Looks (and sounds) wonderful.

Wow, props to Stinkles for the well said response.
The phrase in the title was funny, as a single comment. It was a jab at a work that a lot of people put their heart and souls into for a long time though, so it probably wasn't the greatest phrase to use. Kind of like making a billboard or poster for the group that says "Halo 4 sucks", and then expecting newcommers and devs alike to be happy to join.
My 2 cents. The new title is still a jab at Halo 4. I'd vote for changing it to something positive about the great god damn collection we are getting the chance to buy in a month.
5 games,
5 engines,
103 multiplayer maps,
402 achievements,
Halo 5 multi beta,
1 fucking disc.
There's tons of title options there to get people hyped for this fucking awesome collections releasing.
I think it's 21.
Yep, last numbered OT was 19. Anniversary was 20. This one is 21.

He should feel bad. Very bad. So bad even that he should change his name to SpeedyFracasDude. Fracas is bad.I know you didn't make it up, so don't feel bad. IMHO it should be changed, but that's just me. I'm an insignificant junior member.
In the words of my illustrious brother and homie and guy I rarely speak to so idk why I call him my brother:
Funny thing is, the 3 out of 4 was CE, H2 and H4 because Halo 3 is factually the worst Halo. What else is funny is that H2A multiplayer should be considered a 5th game as I've explained in the last thread.
Let's be honest here, H2A is giving us more than many $60 games lol. Why are we still only saying we're getting 4 games in this package? WHO KNOWS, 343 isn't doing it either.
stfu
:]
It is a positive title. But what its doing is acknowledging Halo 4's shortcomings and praising that classic Halo is returning in glorious 1080p 60fps

God dammit.
343 gonna fuck around and make me buy an Xbox One

I didn't make the OT to provide 343 with free PR.

Wish you could put gifs into titles, cuz it woulda definitely been the HBK BJ.

I see Fracas' first OT has turned into a disaster.
Who saw that coming?
Who saw that coming?
Yeah. This is one thing that bugs me with most OTs these days, especially the Destiny one. If it reads like a PR release, I take the the OP a lot less seriously when it comes to the subject.
Me!

Well I was hoping the tone around here would change but it looks like this OT is starting it off on the wrong foot.

Okay, this discussion sucks. Lock this thread, throw away the keys.
Halo |OT22| Maybe next time, HaloGAF. CE you all in hell.

Random comment from IGN:
to get killed off by the Flood.

I'd play that, although the only part I dislike is Ridley getting infected. Horse shit. Ridley's too big

Sure is looking that way, isn't it? Still no details about H1 and H2, particularly in relation to how their netcode is being addressed for the shift to the Azure platform. I sure hope Halo 1 is getting a proper rebuild of the netcode, as any of us who have played Halo PC can tell you that simply having dedicated servers doesn't cut it for any real competitive play.
I really don't understand why they're staying silent on the original games, especially when it's something that so many of us are very, very excited for. I'd much rather hear "hey, we're having problems with the ports of the original games and the Azure hosting is proving more difficult than anticipated, but we're working diligently to deliver an excellent product" than just radio silence.
Yes please.
Also, all the drama over the thread title in general is getting a little ridiculous. Then again, I don't even know what the "it really feels like Halo" reference is.
Hell, the drama around here over threads in general is ridiculous. Who gives a damn who makes the thread? The info in the first post is pretty much only a formality, too, really. It's all pretty insignificant in the end.
We're all here because we're fans of Halo and want to talk about it, and we have a thread to put our posts in. That's all that counts.

My name is Fracas. I used to be OP. Until...
We got a burn notice on you. You're blacklisted.
When you're burned, you've got nothing: no thread, no quotes, no post history. You're stuck in whatever thread they decide to dump you in.
Where am I?
HaloGAF
You type whatever thought comes your way. You rely on anyone who's still replying to you. A shitpost-happy ex-clan member...
Shall we flame them?
An old friend who used to inform on you to Ghaleon...
You know gaffers... bunch of bitchy little girls.
Developers too...
Hey, is that Stinkles again?
... if you're desperate.
Someone needs your help, Elzar
Bottom line? Until you figure out who burned you... you're not posting OPs anywhere

We're getting classic CE and classic H2 footage this week. Patience grasshoppers.

Halo 4 was bad and there are tons of constructive posts explaining why. Anyone getting butthurt over a thread title needs to re-evaluate their internet experience.
