this reminds me of that guy who got called at cool skip cop and told the clap guy to filthy

Yeah noodle! Exactly how it was is when it was as like the shop chop down by the flim flam.

I'm going to assume I just witnessed someone having a stroke while typing on a games forum.....

What I want to know is, what was his post pre-edit?

Don't worry, Breakaway has a history of this.

How does that even make sense.

Like, it's in English (which is a plus), but it's still pretty wat.

Now I'm even more confused.

thats some neoism sentence structure right there

 

[ViewtifulJC]

Halo really is dead

That's rude and offensive.

HaloGAF needs a patch it seems.

I nominate breakaway to write a halogaf week-in-review every Tuesday.

[MrGreencastle]

Incredible Photoshop, Eugn. Hire this man, 343 and/or People magazine.


Also, I don't usually pimp RH stuff outside of the occasional podcast, but Wahrer had a super interesting write-up on what the Halo 2 campaign was supposed to be, and i didn't know half of this stuff.

The podcast discussing the E3 news will be out a little later this week.

Awesome stuff. Quarantine Zone is such a freaking crazy level. That wall...

 

[Tawpgun]

Patch would just break shit and add an underscore to every post

What HaloGAF really needs is a patch that removes people who vote AR starts or Halo 4 BTB.

THis might be a metaphor for MCC too

[CRIMSONxSERAPH]

So

Spoiler

off the PS-edit and devoid-of-English-structure statement topics

has anything more been said of armor customizations in 5 beyond that we'll get stuff in REQ packs? I didn't know if there was a good FAQ question someone was able to ask 343 at E3 that I had missed.

Also, the more I watch Warzone and the campaign gameplay we've been provided, I'm loving the sound design and music more every day!

 

[squidhands]

No one ever truly leaves Halogaf

[dwells]

Speaking of gun designs no one likes, I worked a little more on this guy (not done):

Spoiler

Legendary Binary Rifle. Slightly larger version.

Someday...

"Developed in 2558 by lead researchers Ryn Yi Donge and Jemma Blayne, the DG58, or 'Donge-Blayne,' represents the UNSC's first successful weapons implementation of Forerunner hardlight technology."

There, the name is canon now. Put it in, 343.

Nice writeup, although you might want to apply a stiffer copyedit; there's some extremely long run-on sentences and paragraphs without topic sentences.

While I knew the whole Basis-Threshold-Quarantize zone stuff it never occurred to me how obvious the relation of Burial Mounds and Quarantine Zone is. The palette swap from hot to cold was enough to fool me.

[The Henery]

Anyways, when are they adding Halo 3 to Hardcore?

Spoiler

and removing/splitting H2C from it?

I want to play a good gametype/map combination again.

https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/halo-community-update-5-12-15

The return of...Halo 3’s Hardcore game types... remain on the way as well. While some of these require some additional updates before they can be integrated into matchmaking, they remain a priority for the team

A month later: https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/halo-community-update-6-12-15

Also, the team is working to resolve issues that are preventing Halo 3’s Hardcore variants from being brought into matchmaking, but these do indeed remain a priority

It appears they're having huge problems forging the MLG variants. Not sure why seeing as forge was fixed months ago and the base maps have been updated.

I highly doubt they'll split H2C hardcore into its own list. They should let H3 MLG have the list all to itself for at least a month when the variants are ready; H2C has had the list for 8 months. I really don't want to play H2 when searching for H3 hardcore.

Can we just have a CTF/Assault playlist that doesn't have Halo 4 in it? I hate slayer. I'd even take a return Flagstravaganza.

Base maps are updated. Narrows has dynamic spawns. :babydave:

BTW, any word of whether H5 will integrate into MCC UI?

How can this still be a thing, when there's a guy who has actually replicated all the MLG maps (except the Forge maps) and gametypes? How come they ported that other Foundry map variant and added it into matchmaking

Spoiler

(forgot the name, but it's a terrible map either way)

?

And I absoultely agree to the bolded.

Frankie said it won't happen prior to the H5 beta, iirc.

Ah, fair enough. Thanks.

Tight endless/winding tunnels paired with long range OHKO shotguns is super awesome

Yeah, same here. I really hope they have a team doubled Playlist...

Spoiler

return of the legendary magnum baby

 

[Captain Friendo]

I have such an urge to see some more info on visual aspects for whatever reason.

What will the halo 5 armor variants look like?
What will the fall of reach series look like?

 

[kittens]

I said the same thing while I was "playing" Thieves' Den last night. :|

Yeahhhh... I think I'm finally fed up with Destiny PvP for good. I just play MCC now, mostly the Halo 4 playlist. It's not nearly as good as Halo 5 looks, but it's the best PvP out there imo. Halo 2 Classic is great too.

I'm just very pleased at how well the MCC is working. I look forward to playing it almost every day.

 

[Ricky Ricardo]

So, wait. I thought Halo was dad and MCC was trash. It works? I don't know who to trust any more.

Parties work, co op works, fairly quick MM waiting times, smooth connections, and a heavier bias of BR starts. There are always exceptions, as with any online experience, but it's darn good right now.

 

[kittens]

Yeah, it works pretty well now. Halo 4 matchmaking wouldn't find matches at times yesterday, while some other times it would find one almost instantly. It was weird. But yeah, it mostly works.

It works fine for the most part, however I think MM times depend heavily on your region. In NA MM is fairly fast and consistent, however in AUS for example it's probably hit or miss. Quitters/AFK, smg/ar starts, and playlist management are still issues. However, other than that it's quite playable.

When I saw it was Thieve's Den on Friday I noped and shut off my console. Didn't even bother playing it I hate that map.

Hmmm, sounds like I need to find a year card and hop on for some Halo before Halo 5 hits.

Yeah, great read. I knew most of the stuff already, but it's nice seeing it all in one place.

To think how crazy Halo 2 could've been, if it'd had a bit more time...

Elzar is completely right.

There's a sentence you don't expect ever to hear.
