The second will probably be more fun.

Halo |OT14| They call it Halo
- Thread starter Overdoziz
- Start date
When you go in solo and your teammate isn't talking and you have no idea where they died,it gets frustrating real fast. I just quit now since it doesn't matter. I do bait for pro only. Abandon has too much crap in the way for my liking. Not simplistic enough.
Get back on. I need someone to play with.
Were you the only person to not get your moon shoes with your copy of Halo 3?

Yeah I always took it as a sort of eulogy to Noble 6, but since she refers to Noble 6 as "you" I didn't really take it as being a speech that actually happens in cannon - more symbolic than anything, imo. That the scene is happening in 2589 was just to show Reach had been re-terraformed and the humans had began to land and recolonize (notice the UNSC ship in the distance).
I wonder if the next game will feature Bornstellar...

Theatricality and deception are powerful agents to the uninitiated... but we are initiated, aren't we?
Jump height was attenuated in halo 3 relative to halo 2 wasn't it? It always seemed like I wasn't making jumps I should have been able to when playing on the pit.

These settings are painful.
Ugh I am about to leave for the day. Sorry.
You wanna dong tonight? I should be home much earlier.
Sidenote: anyone have the warheads? My new living room is a lot more spacious than my last and those wireless headphone look so legit and have really good reviews. All opinions welcome.

The correct date is actually "not soon enough". ;-)
Happy GrimBirthdayOne!
Probably won't be home tonight.

Would they work with the next Xbox? I wouldn't buy a proprietary headset this close to launch until I had confirmation it would, but that's me.
Yeah I thought about that but I have a guy moving in with me in a week or so and our sleep schedules conflict a lot with me getting off work at midnight and him going in at 7 am so I want to try and minimize extra noise. I would literally see him getting ready for work as I get ready lol.
I know the price point is high but I would end up moving this box to my room when the nextbox comes out.
The engadget review is really high on praise for it I just didn't know if anyone had first hand experience.

The Pit > Longbow
Isolation > Solace
Epitaph > Abandon
Construct > Adrift
SANDTARP > Complex
Guardian > Haven
Lol. To each their own... at least Epitaph had OS, Camo and Rockets on respawn timers to fight over. Better aesthetics too. Abandon has poop colour foliage everywhere, no flow, no regularly timed weapons (i think) and an overpowered central structure that's a nightmare to prize a competent team from. Plus Epilogue multi team Crazy King wuz da best.

I saw an article the other day that ranked it one of the top 10 maps in the franchise. I was bewildered.

Didn't IGN post something about the best maps in the franchise, and HaloGAF came up with a lot of cute runner-ups including Epitaph?

Construct was the best and nothing has come close to emulating it.

Agreed. Reach as a whole was better than Halo 4. Art design and graphics were stellar too.

Sooo easy.
1st time was a nightmare. Easy once you know what to do though.

Wait. Do I have to do the Singleplayer mission on Legendary this weekend to get the singleplayer achievement?
The Henery

Yep. I don't think Epitaph is a good map I'm just using it to emphasize how bad Abandon is. I doesn't really work for anything amongst the current gametypes. A one sided objective might make it semi-decent. Big if though.

According to Fyre, only multiplayer stuff needs to be done.

Eagle I think we're in the same game LOL
I'm so blasted dude..... I got the flag and like 2 mins of holding it my friend says "you're going the wrong way" - This game could've ended a long time ago hahah
Feels good to play Halo on a day like this. Not too far from my area:

I honestly think Halo 4 Legendary is the easiest Legendary to date due to the poor AI and how easy it is to cheese encounters. I'd probably rank them, from easiest to hardest:
Halo 4 > Halo 3 > Halo Reach > Halo CE > Halo 3 ODST > Halo 2 > fucking bullshit AI in Halo Wars
Halo 4 > Halo 3 > Halo Reach > Halo CE > Halo 3 ODST > Halo 2 > fucking bullshit AI in Halo Wars

Also Abandon sucks. Am I the only one that notices the fact that there are some very, very questionable rock wall placements? There's one rock ramp near the back lift that LEADS INTO a cave/wall formation when trying to go into the purple trees area. You literally have to run up the ramp and then turn left, otherwise you're gonna get stuck on this stupid corner. I've seen so many people run up the ramp and literally run into this wall/cave thingy.
There's another place that has this problem also near the purple trees area. It's when you're at ring 2 and headed towards the trees. Walking along that railing will make you run straight into a big rock wall. I've done it so many times by accident when I'm in a strafe battle. I just never expect this big ass wall to come out of nowhere.
We should make a montage of people running into these two walls.
I would take some pics to show you where this is but I can't figure out how to access my file share on Waypoint's website. edit: nvm. I thought they already added that feature. Guess not =/

It's way more easy, I think anyone can notice how easy (or dumb) are the Elites in Halo 4...
The AI reduction was because of the hardware, right? I really hope the AI is improved in the next Halo (in the nextbox).
Also Halo Wars AI wasn't that hard, Halo 2 was worse. For me at least.
OG Blood Gulch played beautifully but every remake was miserable.
I know it's a thing to say how terrible lists are...
but holy shit that list is terrible.
but holy shit that list is terrible.
Coag is leagues better than Blood Gulch. The redesigned bases and improved teleporter exits cement that spot. I even like Blood Gulch for what it is, but Big Team CTF BRs on Coagulation was great.
Ew.
This trolling is quite masterful actually.
