Not really. I'm abivalent. I just wouldn't cry/take extreme issue with it. I made it clear numerous times I'm not anti-AA as is the norm. I think they can be implemented better and would like to see strives to do so.

Reporting for duty!
MLG Evade Defense Force =/= Normal People Playlists Evade Defence Force
The reality is that in non MLG playlists everyone can spawn with it.
G THE F OOOOOOO
good luck! what job?
Okay. Elite only is the only good implementation of it.

We had Drop Shield for eight months and this will be evade's eighth month in matchmaking, I think it's a nice chance to completely kill it from matchmaking, we'll even act like this fiasco never ever happened!
EVADE 4 ELITES!!11!

Ha, thanks guys! Its a web developer position at an ad/branding/design studio. They do some pretty big brands and also design graphics for skis and snowboards. They have a mini ramp in the office too. Would be an awesome gig. I haven't had an interview or job since I left my last one in August so pretty nervous. Naturally, I came to HaloGAF to let that out.

That Sounds awesome, good luck! : )
Well thats the realist part lol
Knock Bungie for the implementation, not the ability itself.

It's unbelievable on the new settings in MLG. With the increased movement speed Evade is unreal, you can fly all over the map while everyone else is jogging.
lmao. Reach is truly the game of the forever.
You shoulda died so many times, but instead Evade allowed you to be 50 feet from your original fight in one button press, I really don't know how anyone who liked the first 3 Halo's could defend such tripe.

This is wrong in so many ways, wow
There are Regenerator defenders out there, too.
I was going to include Bubble Shield camping defenders in my list of crazy people, but I don't want to get anybody here riled up.

About time I finally get to participate in this madness!
Are you a very recently approved member of neogaf?
Yes, after five long months of agonizing wait. At least they sent that approval mail four times!
What country are you posting from and whats your current age.
Germany, 20 years old.
At what age did you get into Halo and with which game.
Naturally Halo: CE on the original Xbox. Invested hours after hours into the Co-op and MP with my cousin. I think that was back in 2002/03.
For how long have you been reading HaloGAF?
Uh... for 2 or 3 years? Time sure flies!
Whats your absolute favorite Halo campaign? And your favorite multiplayer? (youre not allowed to pick Halo: Combat Evolved for any of the two)
That's a tough one, but I'll go with ODST campaign-wise and Halo 3 in terms of multiplayer. While I do love certain aspects of Reach (higher level of customization, weapon feedback, animations, etc.), I prefer 3's level of mobility (strafing, higher jumping).
Highest Halo 3 level and which playlist.
46 in Lone Wolves (and 45 in Double Team).
AR or BR?
DMR
Absolute favorite multiplayer map from Combat Evolved, Halo 2 and 3 (just one from each).
Sidewinder, Lockout, The Pit.
Least hated Reach mp map.(excluding Anniversary pack)
Countdown, I guess...
Do you prefer BTB or MLG? (pre-Reach era)
BTB.
Competitive multiplayer or Firefight?
MP.
Games completed on solo Legendary.
Halo 2, 3, ODST and Reach. Anniversary will be next, but college is keeping me too busy right now.
Are you EazyB? Mike DongBlain?
Aren't we all?
What are some of your favorite Campaign missions.
Halo (CE and 3), Silent Cartographer, The Ark and The Covenant, Exodus and most of ODST's missions.
Favorite Reach playlists.
Haven't played Reach in a while... (thanks college!) What playlists are there even at the moment?
Size of frankie erotica folder (in megabytes).
Lost track of the numbers a long time ago... He has infected the whole system!
Opinion on reticule bloom.
The idea isn't exactly bad, but the execution is lacking. I'm okay with it in Campaign and Firefight, but it can get really frustrating in MP.
Opinion on Armor Abilities and the one you usually end up picking.
Again, not exactly bad, but I feel like they distract a bit too much from Halo's core principles. Most of the time I end up picking Sprint.
Why are you a Halo fan?
Halo: CE's co-op remains one of my greatest gaming experiences ever. It's what made me buy an Xbox for Halo 2 and from then on it just kept on going and going: From local Co-op and MP sessions over Xbox Live shenanigans thanks to the 360 to meeting lots of interesting people due to our shared hobby. Also I simply enjoy Halo's gameplay, music and lore which is why I've read every single book to date and am eagerly anticipating Halo 4 as much as any of you guys.
Now, let's wait together.

A lot of bad things are great in theory. He's okay.
also, for that evade video, if he got his melee I would have laughed so hard
Wearing it for luck for tonight MLG console announcement.
I am naked in hopes that 343 announces Halo 4 stuff soon and that it is somewhat stripped back to basics.
Also I'm going to send in a Resume to 343 to be Halo 4's playlist manager.

Reminds me of the qoute from JP3, just replace Billy with Bungie.
Billy Brennan: You have to believe me, this was a stupid decision but I did it with the best intentions.
Dr. Grant: With the best intentions? Some of the worst things imaginable have been done with the best intentions.

Uhhhh...don't you have a job interview to go to??? The way you described that place made it sound casual...but I doubt it's THAT casual.
You're better than this.
Yup, leaving now. Someone get naked in protest while I am gone.

It looks like I'll be on many kill lists at the end of February.
I don't see the problem, everything works fine.

Thats not abuse, thats just another team of really bad uncoordinated players getting crapped on in MLG.
They didn't time or acquire a single power weapon and had 0 teamwork. Their shot was pretty rough too.
Just adapt, stop bitching about evade. Its not going anywhere.

So if Halo 4 would be in this Showcase then Halo 4 will probably be on their April issue.

It just occurred to me that the speed at which this thread moves is far more problematic whilst participating.
I'm mostly waiting for Halo 4 right now.
I really hope you hate Halo 4, so that you're stuck playing Reach for the rest of eternity by yourself.
Not even quite by half am I.

I didn't think I'd ever say this, but I agree with Juices, adapt or die.
Adapt or move on to better things, is more like it!

If by die you mean stop playing then you win. I dont know why exactly thats supposed to be a good argument though.
EDIT: Beaten
Totally. I'm really excited. We should learn a lot about the new style being brought to the game by the new leadership.
We're talking about the US friendly against Italy, right? Cause that's gonna be awesome. Donovan and Dempsey are gonna style all over those Italian thugs.
