I was looking at tag emblems and found something that might work for me since the crescent moons are gone in Halo 4. But I'm not interested in going Tracker before Rogue.

Never try to talk to XBL support, good god.
She told me I would maybe have to wait until next weekend cause you know this weekend is here. What kind of logic is that. She had no clue of it. This is such a backwards way of doing it. Could have just unlocked them for everyone who played before the 20th.

Nah brother. Sometimes I feel like it was made just for the macho dudebro smoke weed errday kind of people, which is not what I am.
I just go there because our swim team occasionally does after meets.
Well, if you have a particular taste for wings, that's understandable. They're not amazing or anything.
Eh, your not really in a position to criticize.
True, he plays D3 nightly.
What's funny is that Juices is exactly the type of person he hates in Halo when it comes to D3.

Shots fired! My own opinions are pretty particular and in the miniority, but if I had to go with one person's views over anyone else's in this thread, I'd probably choose Juices (although I find Cyren's views to be pretty acceptable, too). 343 needs to hire one of these guys!

How? I dont eat mt dew doritos to level faster in a /fps, thats you guys
btw I would play Halo 4 if it wasnt a fucking joke.
A way to boost that? I am at 2/5 with 1/25
just try to get first strike every time you play a match
swat and regicide are good playlists to get them. oh and if you don't mind playing flood it's probably the quickest to master the first strike commendation, because there's the potential to earn three first strikes per match.yeah, seriously. ordnance mastery (like 6-8 different weapons for UNSC iirc) to unlock stances? I'll probably stop playing the game before i master that. first strike mastery is pretty short. I think total of around 100 first strikes? last tier is only 50.
what's your gt. I'm up for 4 or reach
I posted this in the Gaming Halo thread and didn't get any responses. I'd appreciate some feedback on it, thanks:
Now Halo-GAF, I got some questions and would like to know what the experts here think. First, has anyone else experienced the issue in this topic? Stinkles responded but OP never responded if it was fixed. Some Google shows me that this issue is a little more widespread than I thought. I'd really like to know how to fix this for my friend/try to avoid it happening to me. This issue is also mentioned in the Halo Waypoint forums here, but isn't listed in the known issues sticky thread here.
Secondly, cheating. Has anyone else experienced cheating yet? I just got finished with a game of CTF on Ragnarok where our team was about to score, the game then pauses at that black screen and says its trying to re-establish connections and start the game again, then after a minute or so the game returns, we no longer have the flag, and the other team scores instantly. After that, our team is like, wtf just happened, did we get standby'd? Then everyone else on the team quits as we quickly run over and score (no one was there on their team). I'm thinking that just one person cheated and everyone else recognized that and quit out of fear of getting reported.
So I see that there is no way to report people in-game, and the only option is do so through Xbox Live. I can't remember, was it like this way in Reach? The thing is, I'm trying to figure out WHO cheated, as I don't want to report someone erroneously. I'm going to watch the replay and see if I can see anything strange, but my initial thought it that the person who scored is the most likely candidate. Thoughts, GAF?

So, yeah. Blops 2 is really good. I just spent a huge chunk of the night playing it and didn't have any of the frustration I got in Halo 4. Even when I was getting shit on. Plus I can put perry the platypus on my playercard/weapon.
Haha, my friends can't stand it. I actually really liked it though.
These are dark times for Halo indeed.
Also Rosso, how is Far Cry 3?
it existed in reach, but nowhere near as much as It happens to me in halo 4. every few games I get a black screen while some others are in fact still playing and scoring. it's either easier to cheat or the games just buggy as fuck in regards to networking.

I'm playing 3 right now. Yall can join in / shoot me an invite anytime!
Holy shit. Can you even say what you do? To pull those kind of hours sounds awful. The compensation better be worth it.

I generally have an alright time unless I get matched up against full teams, which seems to be happening more and more to me lately. Also, I don't understand why people think vehicles are easy to kill. My experience says otherwise. Players getting 30 kills with the Gauss Hog... And single stickies, sometimes, two stickies, are not enough to kill things. Yeah, sure, team shoot, but if you're playing solo, good luck trying to get everyone to focus fire on something. Vehicles are once again the cesspool they were in Halo 3 in my opinion. Idiots going around everywhere getting undeserved easy kills. It's really discouraging playing BTB when you're basically at risk at being one shot by just about everything driving or flying around. And vehicles respawn way too quickly. I haven't had the best results trying to use the plasma pistol either. Thing doesn't lock on to anything it seems.
Really, so you are seeing cheaters every few games?! How come there aren't a lot of people complaining about it, then?

So just to confirm, anyone who owns the collectors edition of Halo 4 already have this code?
I feel like I wasted some of my money...
Specializations? Yeah, LE got them day 1 (ability to see all of them/use them). We knew this before launch though. David said it wouldn't be too long for everyone else to get them.
Corporate finance, cost analyst specifically. (Quote for some specifics) And yeah, the compensation is worth it. I actually like my job and love the company I work for. Just not when it's trying to kill me.
I think I'm going to wrap up some home building in Skyrim and hop on for a couple of Halo 4 games. I kinda feel like blowing stuff up tonight. Can't imagine why. :lol
Really, really good! It's my game of the year. Story mode is fantastic (I've spent hours just wandering the jungle... and it's fun), coop is kinda... tacky, but fun (very arcadey if I had to be honest) and multiplayer is quite average... BUT, the map editor is absolutely amazing and is the saving grace in that department.
Really puts Forge into perspective.

If that's the case then I just wasted a perfectly good code. I didn't realise what it was, would've been nice if it had actually specified that it was the specialisations that I already had rather than just saying "You’ve earned a free gift".

Thats cool. If you have fun play it. I played and had no fun, even tho I shit on kids and went 40/44. It just didn't have what I wanted.

Not really though. If you're going to get the map packs regardless, you basically still pay what anyone else would pay for everything, plus a few extras.

My double XP finally works, yay!
About time.
About time.
Pretty sure the regular+map pack code is 5-10 bucks cheaper. Enjoy your pamphlet though!
Second game I try tonight.
JIP into a BTB Infinity Slayer game where our team is down 10-180 on Exile. The other team has the Banshee, Gauss and Scorpion and are camping our spawns.
I asked this question after PAX, when that was my only experience on Exile there, and it was kindly included the Q&A Bulletin.
From what I can tell the vehicle set up is the same as PAX. The Gauss Hog and Scorpion should not be in matchmaking, for the reasons I ran into at PAX and the experience it creates in matchmaking. We need a non-Heavies BTB.

To be fair, you just started playing it and you had similar feelings about Halo 4 when you first started. Let it sink in and report back in a couple weeks on both.
If only players could spawn with a way to deal with vehicles that's more reliable than the green gun.
Or if BTB could just remove all vehicles except the chaingun Warthog so BTB games don't devolve into one team getting slaughtered by vehicles with one-hit kill weapons.

Why the hell didn't I get an email for this yet??
Also here's my cat yawning.
Knew this photo I took last week would come in handy.
