Awesome thanks a lot man, cool that these codes are still being put together. Any idea where 343 hid the glyphs?
Apparently the pros don't like it because of the dev cycle. Having to adapt to a new CoD every year doesn't sit well with them. It's why games like CS 1.6 are still played competetively.

That makes sense. Yearly iterations aren't good for a competitive scene because as soon as you start scratching the surface a new game comes out and mixes everything up. I guess it's only a real problem if no one agrees on which game to stick with, since 1.6 didn't die out when CZ, CS:S and now GO came out.

The game just came out ffs.

Oh man, my stats make look like a real asshole. Explosions everywhere.
When all else fails and you're trapped in a warthog alone getting ambushed, just drive it straight into the crowd, hop out and throw down the plasma at your vehicle as a last resort. HUGE EXPLOSION muahahaha.

Kill everyone but the king.
The gametype still sucks, bring back FFA, it would be amazing in Halo 4.

Right, same reason why Starcraft is a huge competitive hit, change the game minimally through patches/fixes and the metagame evolves itself
So true.

Any specific reasons? Was thinking of picking it up soon.

To everyone playing later last night (kittens, barlow, etc): check your recent games. I'm looking for that dude that looked like Megatron (I'm guessing it was FOTUS) but I can't for the life of me find it in my history.
Oh, and fun fact: you can set player trait zones to teams, and it'll actually work! For example, setting a player trait zone to Team 8 and applying bottomless clip will give Cyan Team bottomless clip, but nobody else. If you combine that with a gametype with one-sided options such as Dominion (and force the game into Sudden Death, but only get points for kills or whatever) that's up to six possible unique player traits! Combined with loadouts you could actually make a pretty diverse class-style system.

It was. Not to mention those guys were eating shots 5 feet in front of me. Lol, can't imagine how it was for Hyper.
Some time in December that the devs will not specify further.

They were hungry, I gave them what they wanted but... they never stopped.
It was fun. Thanks to everyone who'd watched Tashi's stream, endured my English, and seen my dreams being broken (to get carried by Tashi. but yeah...)

And the campaign doesn't have frame drops either!

Decrease auto-aim/aim magnetism.
We met in the middle. You brought me down some and I brought you up some. That's why I performed worse than you thought I was going to and you peformed better than you thought you were going to hahahaha.
It was a cool experience though.

Not bad, then they could make the single shots stronger. While we're at it, let's scrap the Pulse 'nades as loadout weapons too and make them worthy of picking up or choosing in an Ordnance. Those things should wreck shit..
Hell, why not even remove the Light Rifle and make it an Ordnance Rifle that's as stronger as a Damage Boost, but has less shots. After all, each of the Promethean weapons should be overpowered :]

We are blaming the lack of Railguns as the reason for our loses. Haha.
Fine with that lol

Well, Bregmann and I just suffered our final loss. We dominated a few matches, at least. It was fun, but jetpack and instant spawn is awful. And the fact that some loadouts get AR as well as DMR/BR is dumb. But ah well, I had fun.

343 have graciously given me a preview of an update they're working on for the X on death issue. They've decided to listen to the community but to also incorporate their revolutionary UI vision as well to set them apart. This was all I could get to show, but it's just one step closer to classic Halo we all know and love.
They also brought back the Unicorn vs Wolf motif for red and blue as you can see there. You rock 343.

If the insta respawn red X thing is an issue, just make the X's last shorter, or have them fade like 2 seconds after someone spawns. Hell, it could even tell the player for 2 seconds where they died.
Also played a CTF match on adrift with randoms. So good. Was intense. Ended my daily Halo on a high note.

Honestly, because its disheartening such an easy to use weapon is that effective. Before we use to strike down scrublet AR users with out precision weapons.
Now... now we're scared.

well good news for Halo 4: Black Ops 2 is utter shit. I don't understand how the netcode gets worse over time instead of better. There is no good connection game, there is only whether you are on the host's side or not. Combine that with boring weapons and a terrible unlock schedule (I've only unlocked one weapon in the last 8 levels I think), menus that take forever to load, and boring perks and you get my least favorite CoD game of all time, so far anyway. And the maps aren't even good either.
I agree with you 100 percent. I haven't gotten much practice with it due to work (I know, I know, it's all I talk about anymore) but I'll start using it sunday night.

I think the AR is perfect. It's fun to use, powerful at short range, but useless at anything approaching long range. The DMR still dominates in 80% of encounters.
