Hey, no hating on TBBT. Next to Mr. Spock and Maurice Moss, Sheldon is the only TV character I can relate to.

Definitely wasn't the best of it. Show is great if you're into mathematics and science. The laughter can be a bit over the top, but it is real people live... The quality of the show has been decreasing over the seasons. The first two-three seasons were great though.

Just watch this though - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K02O02NqndE - try to ignore the laughter.

I wish NeoGAF were like Yu-Gi-Oh! and you could sacrifice users to summon stronger members.

They got banned, really?

Ozzy is only here to try to suck up to the devs.

I'd just like you and other developer(s) staff here to know there are some of us here that respect your personal activities on forums and that you're not just here to service our Halo consumerism. When you do choose to comment regarding Halo it is highly appreciated. After all every forum poster would be chasing you guys for their "important answers". It's a real sign of maturity for David and yourself to still be posting here, especially given the recent posting attitude of many members of this, and other, Internet forums.

The Internet anonymous soapbox and recent generations are just so disrespectful, flippant and entitled it's gotten way past ridiculous.

Hopefully you guys'n'gals do read the quality posts and get some useful feedback for Halo in between having a good personal laugh as some of the better community members here. Thanks for hanging around and I've always highly respected your demeanour and comments on/off the Halo field since your early days at Bungie.

You guys realise when Sundance says “support” he wants cash handouts from MS to cover the prize money, right?

You mean like when 343 went out of their way to supply MLG with the Anniversary DLC for their events and were rewarded with MLG dropping Reach only a couple of months later? Nah, they've always stood by Halo's side out of love for the game :lol

Not nice to see decent members of the community banned, but if people stuck to discussing the game and the franchise (or even off topic stuff) instead of flinging shit then they wouldn't be in this predicament. I know people are tired with the situation at the moment, as we wait for official channels to awake from post-launch hibernation, but in the mean time it's best to keep your frustrations muted if the alternative is directing them at others.

According to u4ix, they did:

They didn't have chairs BECAUSE they did a favor for Halo. Venues are booked a year in advance. They moved the layout of the entire venue in order to have Halo there. They couldn't have chairs because they added Halo AFTER the venue had been booked and having chairs in front of the door would have broken fire code.

Again, MLG had to SCRAP to afford Halo in the past. Reason being, little to no support monetarily from Bungie and MS at the time. MLG foot the bill for Halo for a decade, then after showing years of support for their (Microsoft's) game, they go and sign a deal with Virgin Gaming.

Why? If the game is no longer fun competitively why in the world would you support it? Would it not be better to make a stand in the hopes that they will re evaluate the game mechanics?



Worse stuff is said around here daily.

I've come to terms that 343i won't re-evaluate game mechanics. I've been trying to make myself heard since the release of Halo 3, I did have some displeasure when Halo 2 was released but the patch eased that pain. I'm just tried if being apart the most vocal community yet we always fall upon deaf ears and empty promises.

Edit: I'd be completely happy if they made default movement like Halo 2's. I want crisp movement again. If 343i gave us only that I'd be satisfied.

Going +20 in assist really pissed me off. Moments where I freaking did most of the work and my teammate swoops in at the last minute. SMH.
Click to expand...

Well if I stay alive, I don't usually mind those types of assists. If they swoop in, I won't get too pissed (just as long as they do the same thing when I'm getting ganged up on). But going +20 WOULD be pretty aggravating, lol

But it just seems like it's pandering to me when you see "+5" in the middle of your screen after you respawn.

"Even though you died, we'll throw you a bone anyway". It just makes me even more salty =p

....This is not a new strategy, hopping and strafing back and forth have been staple evasion techniques in Halo forever. Or at least since Halo 2... didnt actually see too many people jumping around in Halo: CE, but it was offline, so obviously a smaller sample population.

Its worse on Battlefield
(At least it was on 2)

EDIT: Without watching that video I assumed it was about dolphin diving in Battlefield 2, I now realise I'm an idiot.

Pre-patch Battlefield 2 dolphin diving was absolutely ridiculous.

But I was mesmerised with the game as a whole so the frustration didn't stop me playing. I remember getting home from school not long after launch and my brother had reached the next rank, and spent the unlock point on some shitehawk LMG. I was livid, I'd had my eye on the G36C for weeks.

You know it wasn't bad in Halo or Halo 2. At least I didn't encounter it a lot. Then Halo 3 it started becoming more damn common and now in Halo 4 it's off the fucking charts. It's such goddamn bullshit. It really is. Hurrr Duuurrrr I can bunny hop around better then you so I win. Fuck actually shooting anyone. Just hop the fuck around till they have to reload. Just pisses me off so goddamn much. Guess it doesn't help that I've had 3 games where right off spawn someone on the other team has an Incineration cannon. I mean literally from spawn number 1 with no running to one of the initial ordinance drops. Then thow in the campers camping with invisibility and you have one frustrating goddamn day of this game.

It's sad because everything underneath the crap is fun. But between the bullshit and of course people playing like assholes it just gets so goddamn frustrating.

Yeah, the core gameplay is really solid... It's just been slathered with a thick layer of shit.
