Support NeoGAF

[GrizzNKev]

Bungie finally got rid of their halo database I guess, just when my HDD with all my H3 pics and vids died.

Yeah it's a shame we can't do that yet in H4. I wish bungie.net could have just passed everything, EVERYTHING...over to waypoint.

Don't worry, I'm sure Destiny will have awesome screenshots.

The more I play it, the more I realize that the Forge playlist is the best in this game. Every map feels solid the more you play them.

 

[EagleBurnn]

Does Waypoint support API yet?

Slightly less bullshit CTF settings on Simplex is pretty great.

 

[CyReN]

good halo on now http://www.twitch.tv/arenagamingleague

 

[Omni]

Does Waypoint support API yet?

Soon

Actually no. Last time they mentioned it they said they had no plans for API support

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

I like some of these forge maps, namely the ones on the asteroid. Dat skybox.

 

[YourExWife]

That flag comeback. My feels.

 

[DeadNames]

I don't have a problem with loadouts. With a balanced sandbox they can work, IMO.

...

Why the hell do ordnance drops hurt you? Not just the ones that fall from the sky, but the ones that teleport also damage you.

I was backtracking from someone holding a boltshot under the base in Valhalla and the sniper "spawned" in my path, not only blocking me... but also taking half of my shields, which was enough to let the douche with the boltshot to kill me.

My defining moment of ordnance was when I was playing FFA on Haven and then an energy sword falls from the sky and blows me to high hell.

I had some awesome times playing btb in H3. Plenty of this.

Oh man, that was crazy fun. Is the Gravity Hammer even in this game? You would hardly think it if you looked at the maps' weapon drops. Everything is Needlers, Sticky Dets, and Scattershots, with more interesting weapons like the Concussion Rifle and Hammer relegated to extremely rare personal Ordnance drops.

 

[Zoolader]

stars and bars bonanza.

Thanks bro I just found out bungie's halo stuff is all still online.

 

[User 73706]

They need to get film rendering back online. I recorded a clutch instance of me running past a dude in the middle of a firefight to grab the Simplex flag, jump back over his head to donkey punch him with the flag, and then immediately kill his teammate who was rounding the corner to get a capture. Feels good man.

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

Holy shit the framerate on lockout is bad.

 

[heckfu]

Holy shit the framerate on lockout is bad.

Deadly Cyclone has drawn a line in the sand. Supports 343, hates the cartographers.


I like the cut of this man's jib.

 

[EagleBurnn]

I'm going to laugh my ass off if B.net has API support for Destiny before Waypoint does for Halo.

 

[xxjuicesxx]

Holy shit the framerate on lockout is bad.

Holy shit the framerate on Lockout is cinematic. You mean.

in b4 human eye...

 

[Havok]

Wow, that last-second conversion was nice. Wish they'd hurry up and take Extraction out of the paywall/no population desert. Default settings aren't very good, so copy and paste the settings AGL is using.

 

[GrizzNKev]

Holy shit the framerate on Lockout is cinematic. You mean.

humans can see only 3 frames per photon wave per quantum second, google it

I will print this post, eat taco bell tonight, and shit on it later.

Whos playing Halo tonight?

 

[kittens]

Finally tuning into the AGL stream. Loving it already.

Haha, wow. Never had something like that happen! Sucks :\

Sounds awesome. I've actually had a few moments in-game where I've felt like a complete bad-ass and would have loved to grab a recording... but meh. I don't see rendering happening any time soon... It's taken them what, 3 months to get fileshares working? Plus another month on top of that for fileshare support on their site? I cringe just thinking about how long it would take them to introduce a rendering service.

Doesn't CoD have direct to Youtube or something? That would be nice.

 

[User 73706]

Gonna be honest here: unless there's a direct feed download included, I do not want Render To Youtube as a feature. It does nothing for its intended audience of machinimators if we have to download compressed video off of youtube before even using it.

 

[heckfu]

Whos playing Halo tonight?

This guy

 

[Blueblur1]

So I just turned on my Xbox and Halo 4 and found the Grifball playlist up. About to start a match right now.

 

[Fracas]

Grifball's up? This changes everything

edit: this also means SpOps is up

 

[YourExWife]

Holy crap Warriors. Stop with the tension.

 

[kittens]

I'm not seeing Grifball.

 

[TCKaos]

Grifball up early for anyone else?

EDIT: Haven't found a match yet. I think it's showing up but it's not matching anyone.

 

[Fracas]

I'm not seeing Grifball.

I'm playing it right now.

Get on my level

 

[kittens]

I'm playing it right now.

Get on my level

I'd say get shit on, but you're already playing Grifball.

 

[Omni]

Time to play some hostball. Wonder if it's any more playable than that in 3/Reach which were laggy as hell

 

[Blueblur1]

Wow, I never noticed how awful the Hammer sounds in Halo 4. All you hear during a Grifball match is "pew pew pew". It's awful. God, I hope they get a new sound director for Halo 5.

 

[xxjuicesxx]

Two players enter and swing hammers at each other. Host leaves. Thats Halo.

This guy

Hmm I guess I'll be on DIII then.

 

[Omni]

Instant respawn? LOL

 

[Zoolader]

Hey sleeping dogs is $10 on amazon. It's suppose to be awesome and this is much cheaper than what it was during the winter steam sale, so I'm buying it.

 

[Tawpgun]

wtf these settings right now.

Its literally better to die and respawn then to try and survive and recharge shields.

 

[Fracas]

Welp, Grifball is still terrible by myself.

 

[OverHeat]

This weekend I started playing Far Cry 3 love the campaign!

 

[EagleBurnn]

Why does no one pass the oddball as much as Warriors does? Ambush made the same mistakes.

 

[IHaveIce]

People saying Ninja made the Halo community in the Chat.. I'm dying.

 

[Omni]

Well... one game was enough of that crap.

At least there's Spartan Ops to look forward to tonight

 

[Slightly Live]

It's one sexy game on PC too.

Really didn't expect it to be so enjoyable. Hope against hope it gets a proper sequel.

 

[Tashi]

Loooooooooooool Grifball is out

 

[Slightly Live]

Loooooooooooool Grifball is out

Out and shit with instant respawns, apparently.

 

[Tawpgun]

"Ninja is the Joe Flacco of Halo"

Hahahahaha



Is Grifball really fucking instant respawn? Fix your fucking shit. When is that TU coming?

 

[User 73706]

The problem with the Hammer noises is that like 90% of the good sound it makes (in Halo 4) is bass on a certain level that just plain doesn't show up as effectively on televisions. People with super HD headphones might have better luck hearing it, but listening to the raw sound it's kind of baffling they decided on keeping the sound the way it is. Sounds too much like mechanical birdcalls without the bass.

 

[Steelyuhas]

I disagree. Infinity Slayer is a hot, chaotic mess, which is fun sometimes but not as the baseline experience.

This isn't about ultra competetive vs casual.

This is about fairness. You can have fun under settings that can be competetive. Even with vehicles and shit. But you can't be competetive under silly fiesta bullshit settings.

Agreed completely. It's important that everything be competitively viable, and that doesn't mean that you are playing hardcore tournament settings, it simply means that the maps, settings, weapon/vehicle placements are fair, so that the better team wins, not the team that got lucky due to random elements.

This guy

Ew

lol

Sound badass on my A50.
