That's what the packet I was handed today says but you can never be sure with these internet folks.

For real though. I'm QA. And I'm never ever ever going to talk about my job. So don't ask, and don't PM me. But don't cry while I'm gone.

So we can blame you for Halo 5... Good luck on the job and congrats again.

QA is the bestest. Its one of the few departments that gets to see a project via an ongoing and cohesive perspective. Seeing a project from blockout to ship is pretty darn awesome. And getting to know a project's systems more than makes up for some of the repetitiveness and downtime that can happen. The QA folks are the industry's unsung heroes.

Not that I'm in any way biased.

It's also Halo, which puts a smile on my face no matter what I'm asked to do. Not too long ago was a pretty troubling time in my life so I'm gonna have my moment here and then go in peace. Thanks everyone.

Looks like 343 is improving and actually hired some this time around.

Congrats on the job. I'm going to ask you about it once a week.

I'll always prefer Halo with no motion tracker, that's old news. But I'm just 1 person, and there are many others with many other opinions.
Click to expand...

Would changing it to be a little less informative ever be possible?

Like elevation, etc. You don't need to know that. I actually LIKE the motion tracker in Destiny. Gives you an idea, but that's about it.

Yet every few games someone in our party gets kicked or enemies spawn and kill us multiple times before we might eventually even get to spawn. It's still quite a mess. Playable now yea, but still major issues. Then there is sht like File Share, H2 icoms, and other features being a mess

Congrats on the job, in the future we need to see all blown out of proportion arguments settled in 1v1 customs and posted right here at HaloGAF. You know it's the only way to get things done and keep up the post count here as 343i keep stealing all HaloGAF regular member posters for staff.

Well that's a good plan really.

New Halo comes out ---> HaloGAF complains ---> Hire HaloGAF to help improve

New Halo with GAF Staffers come out ---> HaloGAF complains ---> Hire HaloGAF to help improve


Eventually, there will be no HaloGAF to complain and therefore, the series is back on track!

We can push blame to another person now? Neat.

Grats, GrizzNKev
Click to expand...

Yup. Remember, everyone, from now on every single thing is Grizz's fault. Awkward story beat? Grizz. Ugly animation? Grizz. Abundance of quitters? Dammit, Grizz, why didn't you implement quit penalties?

Seriously tho, gratz!

Congrats man!

Just remember not to drink on the job like you were during our H5 Beta playthroughs...

...or drink anyway, for the lulz. Drunk Halo is best Halo after all.

Oh look, MCC still doesn't work.

Fiddle de dee.

I'm so well and truly done with multiplayer on this thing.
Click to expand...

I haven't played MCC in probably a month...been playing Insurgency on PC instead, as well as Diablo 3.

I've lost all hope for MCC ever getting fixed. All I was ever interested in was playing Halo CE on Xbox Live and before this last update, it was playing just fine netcode-wise...now it's completely unplayable.


Yay, not banned anymore! :)

why you gotta leave tho

If you're in QA can you tell Melad he needs to get back to Destiny for some HoW runs. Man needs his Gjallahorn. Contact Homeboyd he'll get you up to speed. Xbone A I R F L O W rides again

The Bad

actually H4 in the MCC is better than on 360

it is more bearable.

though H3 except for the shitty game/maptypes is the best MP mode in the MCC
Click to expand...

I have to agree with this.

Both H4 and H3 are the only two that run almost fine for me(besides the shitty gametypes etc)
But with CE,2 and H2A? Issues over issues.
