No H4 news on the 29th makes me really sad, when the shit are they going to show the damn game? Hope they share some audio content today :(

In about 3 days we will hit the 6 MONTHS WITHOUT H4 NEWS mark, that's just not right.

I know I may just be wrong but the Toy Fair fiasco left me really dissapointed.

Yeah.. Even though it seems Halo 4 wont be at the Spring Showcase I really can't see it being too much longer til we see something. With all of use anticipating something around the corner Im sure if our wait is to be much longer our dreams would have been crushed much harder. Then again, who knows. Hell, maybe they dont know, it possible they are still in the process of deciding how and when to show it off. Lets hope for GDC though.

Well Frank did talk about going to talk to partners and show them everything to get reading for the marketing campaign, so I can't imagine real news is THAT far off.

Well, ultimately I think what Frankie was trying to emphasize is that we don't read into his words or lack of words too much. In this case, he never said Halo 4 wouldn't be there, he simply said we shouldn't assume it was just because he didn't comment on it. Basically wait and see, and only set your hype meter if he says so.

That said, I hope we get a surprise info drop in the near future. This game is getting me to Halo 3 levels of anticipation.

Gonna lol pretty hard if they don't show anything at the MS event, especially since they've seen how pumped everyone is and kind of expecting it. I know they don't have an obligation to shoot down rumors, but man...

Well, for the most part Frankies post seemed to make me believe it wont be there, but Ill wait and see, though Im not expecting anything. I still expect a trailer before we see gameplay outright.

How do you make these skulls spawn each time you score in a Halo Ball gametype? I labelled some hill markers as GOAL_NOISE_MAKER but I just get the sound, not the skulls :(
Click to expand...

You have to set your GOAL_NOISE_MAKER to the team that scores into that goal (so if it's the goal red is defending, set it to Blue Team) and then set the spawn sequence to the number of points the goal is worth.


So GOAL_NOISE_MAKER / BLUE TEAM / 1 will make skulls explode when Blue scores 1 point

GOAL_NOISE_MAKER / RED TEAM / 3 will make skulls fire off only when Red Team puts a ball into a 3-point goal

There was a video posted here a few threads back where a guy threw a grenade out the doorway to the outside of Countdown after a guy ran by, and instead of bouncing forward, it bounced at 90 degrees after the guy who ran by. Seems pretty damning to me.

Also I just woke up an hour ago, but it looks like they finally put a bullet into Waypoint. Happy little engineer shows up when I put it up. Hopefully they make it stay up after this.

It was your fault to get hyped for it. Game is definitely coming this year. That's all I need to know. Okay. Some gameplay stuff would be interesting too. But I have a lot of games which distract me from Halo 4 somehow. Still If 343i says that news is coming, I'll get more hyped than you ever were. Definitely.

And a Sparkast is coming! Why don't you get hyped for more teases?! Remember the second last Sparkast? Some awesome teases if you ask me.

Waypoint has been incredibly slow all day. Even more so than usual. I took several minutes to load a page at times.

Funny thing is, I took 45 minutes to get that time score, but got the Tricky score immediately after switching back. Time just isn't my blessing.

Your ghost was my mortal enemy, I got that score by following your ghost game after game after game and just trying to shave corners off here and there. Good game. (despite not even playing you lol)

Yeah, I was cutting corners hard to beat Tawp who would out of nowhere leap ahead of me or grind a pole faster. And everytime I try to grind up the tree in the beginning I fail.

I actually love Frankie/David teases but after a six months media blackout you just get hyped for everything, even a Toy Fair (I'm not even gonna buy one of these figurines).

I'm sure I'll remember Halo 4 because of how awesome it'll be but also because of its shitty marketing campaign.

Sure, Frankie would just hop in here and say "it hasn't even started" or "there's much more to come" but for now it has been a complete FAILURE.

Fuuuuuck. I really want to get below 2 minutes, some GAFers have done it but that's just magic. Joined the 20K Tricky club. Game NEEDS fireworks on jumps. I felt I deserved it after that run.

Okay Lyphen, you punk, that is an amazing score : ).

Out of curiosity, can I do a head count, how many HaloGaf people are getting SSX?

Random semi-spoilerific Primordium question-

Were the glowing creatures in the lake a type of Engineer?
If so, Im would love to see that realized in the games in one way or another.
