I thought an update said an extraction playlist will launch with the Crimson Map Pack?
That's just so there will be more playlists when a "Classic TU" is implemented

If by "launch with" you mean "buy the dlc to play the awesome new mode on TWO MAPS, yes.
They did say that but it's been revised to "playlist featuring extraction" since.

An Extraction playlist was originally announced for December 10th, but it was announced by IGN, so I think there was a miscommunication, as I don't think 343 ever said anything directly themselves about Extraction. (I may be wrong about that.)huh. I thought there would also be an extraction playlist. That's weird.
When the fuck am I getting 1 flag
I want an Extraction playlist, they're already taking away King. :/
Yep, the gametype that is on the disc is essentially paywalled in MM for the time being.
Holy shit.
I'm basically positive that you guys have seen this, but just to be sure: That "Phantom Pain" game announced at the VGAs earlier is pretty much confirmed to be Metal Gear Solid 5.
I had no idea until I got on GAF. I said gatdamn.

Wth. How did it get on Requiem?This?

Spills It David. Do Spartans have to fight inside that Precursor Scarab Baby of Doom thing?

Dark souls 2? Thank god.
Outside of MGS5, Dark Souls 2, Tomb Raider, and South Park, I was pretty disappointed. Especially with Bioshock Infinite. Framerate was really bad, and the enemy AI was sluggish.
I still can't get over how crazy the guerilla announcement of MGS is though.

Haha, Uncharted wasn't built on the groundwork done by earlier Lara Crofts, nope.
Trailer if you haven't seen it
And I wanted ChromeHounds 2! Next-gen stuff/Destiny will be for E3....even though I think E3 is outdated and there is no real use for it anymore.

I've never had that happen.
We had multiple occasions tonight where the match started and our team was full, but nearly everyone on the enemy team left. Like one dude would have been playing CTF against 5. Nightmare scenario. JIP filled it up before we even got to sprint to the power weapons. Which is to say, I love JIP. It's just a shame they're somehow letting people into matches that are nearly over.
Then again, it's certainly possible that the time it takes between finding a match that needs a JIP player and actually having your Spartan spawn is enough time to take a winnable fight to completely out of balance one. I mean, if they find you a match that's CTF, 5 vs 1 with a score of 2-0, should they put you in there? The enemy team needs to score three times, that's not terrible. At the same time, if it takes you even just 2 minutes to get into the match, that's enough time for the game to ultimately be at 4-0 with the final cap in progress.
It's probably a hard thing to balance out.

Nearly every game is fucking lag city.

It's fun that players are still baffled by the party settings that are Regicide. It's a game about killing the king. If you're the king, it's hard to rack up score. Blue shells left and right. This should no longer be surprising.
Where do you live? You should do a speedtest. We only had one lag-tastic game tonight, but otherwise it's more or less silky smooth.

I just watched Forward Unto Dawn finally.

Bungie has said a few times their game is getting revealed next year, so I wasn't sure where all the expectation came from for Destiny. I wouldn't expect next gen stuff until after the holidays, don't want to hype up next year's model when you're trying to sell this one.
CES or E3. MS might even make their own event again.

Does everyone in HaloGAF hate themselves?
I honestly can't play the gametype unless i have a friend in the party. When I'm by myself, I constantly rage. When I'm with a bud, I'm always laughing at the ridiculous shit happening because it's not always on me! lol

Speaking of, has anyone compiled a list or links to all the stuff that was revealed? Gaming side is failing me, I don't want to look at whole bunch of different threads for this stuff.
Will someone at 343 please add a god damn respawn timer to this game? We can't even get respawn timers to work in the league.
How many times must I suffer through being killed by a jetpack guy who I just killed, but he instant respawns & flys to the sky and kills me before I can even regain my shield. What a complete & utter joke it is.

i doubt it. the design looks too odd for covenant origin. body and legs remind me of the promethan knights, i'm betting it's FR.

I'd probably give it a 7/10. For what it was, it was quite enjoyable.

I love your stream description.
"The casuals all buy our game then quit after getting destroyed 15 times. They choose things like AR starts on Valhalla and companies think thats what we want. They leave us, the real Fenrir Spirit's who come back night after night chasing the ghost of a good game".

Maybe it's a War Sphinx?

A War Sphinx isn't that big imo. Seems like a Flood/Precursor thing.
Earlier tonight:
>Me and buddy playing
>JiP
>Black screen with score board showing us down 3-0 before joining
>Join game
>"Enemy Captured Flag!" before even picking loadout
>Down 4-0
>Quit immediately
Thanks, 343.
as much as i'd love for the reclaimer-trilogy's story to take a turn and follow the Precursor/Flood story (pre-release, i did expect that to happen at the end of H4...) i don't see it happening, not now.
there's been a few hints to the upcoming task (confrontation between man and precursors/flood) by the librarian (when she explains why chief carries a "gene-song", iirc), but there's been not enough talk about precursors (not any at all in SpOps so far) to make me believe that we will get to see a full precursor battle-platform in Season 1. they haven't even been mentioned by name yet, right?

you guys are depressing.
You put too much weight in words said on the internet and spoken amongst friends.

Eh I joke about a lot of things, and there are many parts of the game that need improved, but I like Halo 4.
