any reason why halo 4 fileshare isnt on waypoint yet? or just waiting on the site to update?

 

[Risen]

They said it could be inaccurate, there's a system to figure it out though through twitch/own3d. This is the first time MLG Halo had that available so it's easy now. No idea why they don't release it, I think after 8 years we would like to hear it from them.

LOL at Ben being salty... irresponsible Ben... irresponsible.

Easier to write the narrative when you bury the statistics.

The API method is highly accurate.

 

[Bregmann Roche]

Maybe if MLG released their stream/attendance numbers to the public we would have a better understanding of whether or not we will need to bring our own chairs to any given event.

Since Halo 4 is finally here, I think this is the perfect timing to be a part of the community.

So I just got a call this morning from someone I know letting me know they were sending me a LE console and game.

What unlocks come with the LE console again?

Unicorn Armor.

Spoiler

There should be a special assassination for the Unicorn armor by shoving the head spike into someone's head.

 

[neoism]

Mine is sporadic. But I think it's messing up member status as well. Yup, definitely messing up member status

Good to hear. Finally have something to go off of.

Competitive Gametypes by Nexy

I really hope we play the game for a full 3 months (big maps, crazy weapons, different gametypes) as they are BEFORE we make a single change.

Imagine what possibilities we could be missing if we strip this game down before any meta game comes into play. Also WE NEED regular old matchmaking dudes to want to play with us.

Super obvious but looking at all the gametype discussion so far makes me sick. "Remove this, change this". How about we try to adjust some of this shit with our gameplay rather than forge?

You will literally get one before me. :-(

Although I do have the matching Tritton headset, just nothing to match it with yet.

Can't keep halo off my head, might as well do something remotely useful. Sketch is done

Halo4 ETA 20h.. too damn long

Wow that looks really good. Any plans to complete it with color and all that good stuff?

Question. I'm working on a new spawning system for Grifball and need to do some calculations. Does anyone know what the FoV is in MM?

Also, Still some work to do but i tossed away the salt and updated High Speed Halo.

I remember somewhere that it's 78 degrees (in single screen)

 

[Gr1mLock]

343 really fucked up here. When I play single player I'm going to be thinking of what I'm missing in MP. When I'm playing MP I'm going to be thinking I should be continuing the fight in single player.
WTF, thanks guys. How do they let this stuff slip through?

RIP Halo.

Gamestop robocalls invite me to "Join the Party" at 10pm. You, too, can stand in line in the cold for two hours!

It's okay, I won't actually get it for a week or so (it's being mailed). I was going to drive to Seattle to pick it up, but I would rather stay home and play the actual game.

lol there is something wrong with the world if BigShow gets one before you.

I'm a pretty big deal.

I've gotten a tracking number. F5'ing all night?

 

[The P of Poland]

Might be taking a Halo 4 break in December. It's been a long, long time since two games will have held my interest as strongly at the same time; the Skyrim Dragonborn trailer gave me freaking chills between the music, the Dragon Priests, and that thing you can do.

OH. MY.

 

[heckfu]

Just got a picture on my phone of a package that arrived at my house.

Looks like ill have the LE soundtrack waiting on me this afternoon!

I've a tracking number for a next day air shipment as well but it seemingly hasn't been handed over to UPS by MS yet. Getting anxious about it being shipped out in time for it to be delivered tomorrow

Nexy Quote

Even if I agreed with Nexy's take on merging casuals and competitive players (I don't), I would still say that three months is far too long. In that amount of time you risk losing hardcore players who despise the new stuff in order to replace them with normals. I'd give it a few weeks while keeping an eye on Slayer Pro's population. If that playlist has healthy numbers, then strip the game down to the ground. If it doesn't, then strip it down anyway, because I don't see any significant influx of new MLG fans happening, no matter how close to default MLG settings are.

That's just a couple Euros less than what I got mine for, although mine came in last week already - hopefully some people got in on this because that's another hell of a great deal.

Can't stop thinking about this game! I wish I could go to the midnight release.

Yes. But I'm a bit rusty and the tablet's acting up so it might take a while

[vgamer1]

Okay. Here's my deal. I wanna get halo 4 tonight. If I go into gamestop at around 8 and preorder, and also trade in these games for it: skate 2, viva pinata: trouble in paradise, and blops. According to their site I should get an extra 10$ for trading in three games and an extra 30% since it's going toward H4. According to CAG's gamestop trade in value calculator thing I should get about $42 or something? Does this seem right?
