Halo |OT10| The Calm Before The Storm

I don't think anybody noticed or at least I haven't noticed any ,but there are no more fusion coils on the maps.While in some cases I find them annoying it created an interesting dynamic. Heck it what causes a lot of the random and funny deaths in Halo.

I really wanted to play Dishonored but FIFA is going to occupy all of my time until Halo 4.

WHICH REMINDS ME...does anyone want my Borderlands 2? Thinking about doing a giveaway at some point later in my shift or tomorrow.

Looking at the Dishonored review thread, looks like I shoulda saved my RE6 money for it. :p
Yeah, this is the second game this fall that I paid zero attention to until a few days before launch, and then got super excited about. The other one was Borderlands 2, and I freaking loved that game.

I'm selling BL2 to help justify buying Dishonored. :-X

Also, thanks again ThatsMytrunks for the new avatar. Love it. <3

This was really good. I also like what you did in this one.

I'll work on it a bit

Self quote. Fyrewulff, you would find this interesting:

Yeah, it was missing in all objective games. I was just saying that Neutral Flag Snipers was a ton of fun because people would just snipe across the U; grabbing the flag was incredibly difficult.

What in the shit, I don't even know how I missed that Containment door/shield system. That looked neato. And explains the design of a couple of parts that I always wondered about.

Halo 2's DLC is weird in general. The promo vids they released before the map pack all have dropped elements in them on most of the maps.

- Relic's energy wall.
- Sanctuary's collapsing columns
- Relic's sniper is in a weapon pod and not sitting on the ground
etc

In one of my ATLAS submissions for Halo 3 matchmaking, I converted Ghost Town into a horseshoe map. At the same time, I discovered I could open/close parts of the map by exploiting the fact that Halo 3 didn't support more than 2 teams for CTF or Assault, and the fact that flag/bomb posts were solid. So depending on the mode, I shut out the very abuseable center room to force both teams to go around the more exposed outer bend by making posts that belonged to Green Team:


If you wanted to, you could exploit this on Sandbox by using one of the scenery objects that moved after being placed, and pinning it to a ceiling with a CTF or Bomb post. Then in slayer it'd drop down and block off a passageway or make a bridge.

Is anyone else just feeling an intense amount of anxiousness about the launch? not in a bad way, I'm just completely ready. It feels like it should be Nov. 6th already...

I need the time to clear out my pretty compact 3DS backlog. Finish kingdom hearts, then beat Ocarina of Time, Cave Story, and Kid Icarus by nov 6th

I need the time to do school work and whatnot, but game-wise, Halo is taking ALL my money. That is unless work gets me a copy of Pokemon and/or Dishonored :/ a man can dream!
