The sad thing is that 10 dollar credit is just for amazon video too.

 

[Gr1mLock]

Anyone know if the thruster pack has invincibility frames? It doesn't seem all that fast, or maybe it just looks like it since you zoom out when you use it.

 

[Nando13]

Got my LE today!

lol

Amazon had some pretty weird quirks with that instant video stuff.

I've bought a few blus from them in the past few months and I get a voucher thing to watch them on instant video. If I am physically getting the blu, why would I watch them in lower quality on instant video?

So you can watch it while you're away from a bluray player I would imagine.

 

[Ryaaan14]

Nope, but you're close.

Laughed heartily.

 

[heckfu]

Oh shit when is the boom ball tourney tonight?

/random - Can anyone think of a way to add something halo to my avatar? Maybe a MC helmet under the Link hat?

Didactify that shit.

 

[malfcn]

Wonder what's on NFL. And I have hockey today.

 

[Ramirez]

Reposting for the morning crowd.

Don't let me down HaloGAF.

Let's make this successful.

Already got 10 teams or so, keep signing up!

 

[Buddermilk]

Redskins game brought to you in part by Halo 4. An Ancient Evil Awakens.
(Shows guy dressed as Master Chief jumping up and down on the field like a chearleader lol)

 

[Aggrotek]

Time to watch the Sudds choke.

 

[The P of Poland]

Dax never said.
FyreWulf hasn't given a time for his GBP 8v8 either. I'm thinking we should combine those.

 

[IHaveIce]

Ambush hopefully destroy them

So, watching this stream, are ranks going to be reset Frankie/David? Kind of lame that so many people will be that far ahead of you when playing them.

David said no.

Nope. Doesn't matter much anyway, there's not much of a real tactical advantage anyone will have on you after your first game, for Infinity modes. The unlocks are mostly sidegrades that support your playstyle more than they are upgrades as in CoD/BF.

 

[Plywood]

Silent Voting Screen on Devin's stream. Disappointing.

Only makes the quiet countdown sound at the last few seconds like in Reach.

At least there is a visual indication now, in the top right

 

[IHaveIce]

Oh god, it really is Darkman.

And now snipedown against suddoths lol it can't be better

Steitzer should come on and say "PROTECT YOUR VOTE"*

Then your controller should start rumbling and you should receive a text, tweet and email as well.

And for successful vote sprees* your XP increases by 5%!

Stolen from Yuhas

 

[Tashi]

Considering the jumps I'm seeing by Sudds and friends, it's clear they've have extensive time with the game. Ya dig?

Halogod is on a team with suddoths LOLWAT

Thought they (announcers) said Friday that they (the players) have only had access for about a week. But yeah, 20 hours a day for a week is extensive ;D

 

[kylej]

500 people in devins stream hory sheeit

 

[Aggrotek]

Sudd 1 looks like he belongs in a Where's Waldo book.

 

[lLemonDemon]

Suddoths pirated it apparently.

11k for MLG, then Devin next. Closest to him is sub 50 people!

Ah, well that's interesting.

No one has had access for the week prior unless a serious street date was broken or they got a leaked version.

 

[Havok]

I've noticed that the game seems to be in a pretty big rush to put matches together, so much so that it will often start the game with an odd number of players. I've had matches start 4 on 3, and just now for whatever reason it matched six players as a 4 on 2 game. Pretty weird, hopefully it gets ironed out.

 

[DesertFox]

Anybody know where I can find a list of all the glyphs that have been hidden in the bulletins?

 

[Ramirez]

David said no.

lame

That's a lot of lurkers.

Just passing on what they said. Don't know how or why they would have access, but just something they mentioned Friday during the warmups.

I basically am MLG.

How many players online? It probably won't work right if the numbers are relatively low.

 

[Aggrotek]

Lol that was great.

Who wants Reality check to win? Yeaaa

Who wants Ambush to win? YEEEEEEAAAAAAAA!!1!

 

[Havok]

This is happening in playlists with player counts between two and three thousand. It's got a decent pool to pull from. If it were something like CTF, which has about 150 people, I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest.

 

[kylej]

sk is on sudds team? thank you goofy for that snipe. you have done the world a great service.

Oh Doh! Thats a shame - lobby and matchmaking is always a good time to browse Gaf.


Also thanks a lot to Fyrewulff!

does this game have bad netcode?

Hey broskies

Anyone from UKHaloGAF going to the London Bridge event tomorrow?

The DMR sounds great but the BR sounds like a cricket. Horrible.

 

[TommyT]

Reloading weapon times seem way faster now.

That's what I said!

 

[Rickenslacker]

Seems fine so far. I don't see Infinity Slayer having legs for me with how it is right now, but it goes without saying that the BR is pretty awesome now compared to 3.

I see. Then it clearly doesn't prioritize full matches as it should. I suppose it should anyway...
