I'd like to ask for any submissions or recommendations for player streams, online events or regular communities getting together and broadcasting please.
I humbly request the kind members of HaloGAF to reply post with any links, events, communities, tournaments, broadcasts and similar.
Why? There is going to be a sticky'd thread in the Waypoint > Halo 4 forum for streams just like the one that was on today for BTB.NET exhibition match. I'm a superintendent moderator over at Waypoint now and I'd like to provide easy access for the Waypoint members/viewers to really get into Halo gaming and also present 343i with how popular streaming or spectating can be.
Waypoint thread link for BTB Showdown
Please beware that the post will have a language/maturity disclaimer and if tons of complaints file in then I'll have to remove a stream etc.
I'll be reaching out to the following community forums next with posts similar to this one:
1. AGL
2. Halo Council
3. Ready Up Live
4. 2 Old 2 Play
5. Halo Unity
6. BTB.net
7. MLG/GameBattles
8. reddit.com/r/halo
9. ForgeHub
10. 343industries.org
11. Pulse eSports
12. ACLpro.com.au
I'll ensure credit/source links for each community/streamer and try to keep up to date with the submissions. Public posts will also be allowed in reply so you can post directly in the sticky'd thread when/if you stream. I feel this is great exposure for the communities, events, teams and players alike so I appreciate any responses. In return I also think this is a good opportunity to maximise exposure for viewers, subscribers, broadcasting and/or streams to the Halo masses. Any advice or suggestions for this are welcome.

Guessing I can't use this to try and kick off my Stream and increase my non-existent viewer base?
Also, If FyreWulf doesn't mind, you should link his Stream, it's pretty good.

1. I'll collate what I can based on things like AGL events getting top billing but I'm more than happy to include any streaming links really. Just please beware that the post will have a language/maturity disclaimer and if tons of complaints file in them I'll have to remove a stream etc.
2. Thanks, if streams are publicly listed I don't see any issue including them, I will PM FyreWulf though just to be certain. Always liked his posts
Cheers, added.

Doodled an idea for a Precursor security drone. Think Quadraxis.

What kind of language would lead to the stream being removed? Too much swearing? Or more like offensive stuff?
Also, SEspider from HBO's Halo parody design on Threadless is up for voting. It only takes a few seconds to sign up and rate it. He's going through a tough time, and it would really help him out.

With how much you thought you were picked on, it's rather disappointing to see you do the same.
And you wasted a Yoda.
So this Game of Thrones is pretty good. On the last episode of Season 1 :]

Personally I'm not very strict on language but if Waypoint members post like 100 replies regarding one streamer and they have severe racism or something like that then it's not really the greatest to keep that stream linked on Waypoint in a sticky thread. The disclaimer is enough but based on multiple source feedback I wouldn't tolerate certain things, I think you get the picture.
MLG Ghandiiiiii likes to swear and throw out some very funny statements, basically everything he had in is stream today was passable by my standards. That's pretty straight forward.
Gave your friend's link a tweet too. Cool artwork.
How is that an insult? I always suspected Ozzy would become a moderator. He really liked the Halo 4 and he was/is super active on Waypoint, so it's only natural. And it's funny, because just a few pages back, I brought up how he called out Juices for saying he should be hired for 343 Industries.
Besides, weren't you the one who told me to chill out? (Which I have).
That aside, what did you think of the second to last episode of Game of Thrones?

Awesome, well here's my stream if you don't mind adding it.

Like I said, pretty dead and I'd like to kick-start it off with that Waypoint thread if you don't mind.
Been trying and get my stream running nice and smooth, and I think I've got it all ok now.Ozzy is this initiative, something you decided or are 343/community managers actively looking towards being more streaming friendly and to try and bring the community closer?
Because the next logical step would be to include in-game Twitch broadcasting much like Black Ops II.

Added. Truth be told I need to refine my own streaming setup. I'll be missing from this Waypoint thread for about a week or two. New man cave setup and I have to move a bunch of home theatre stuff before I can stream again.
I'm instructed to not speak about internal moderator things but answering your question would pass I'm sure. It was my idea from the BTB Showdown stream today, it was great fun to watch and I hope they do it weekly so it can become a highlight to this new sticky thread and other community forums. Logical expansion to that is why not open it up for everyone, manage and collate the good stuff to the top and the 343i Waypoint team approved it becoming a sticky for me to up keep. I wouldn't read anything into that but at least it can potentially highlight to 343i just how big streaming/spectating can be. *crosses fingers it doesn't back fire.

If you weren't joking on him then my bad, but yooooooooo Game of Thrones! That ending to Season 1 was SICK!! The second to last episode though ended with a big NOOOOOO ;'[
Pretty good show so far, but most definitely no TWD. I'm sure Season 2 will be infinitely better.
Turn arounddddd..
Every now and then etc etc I LOVE THIS SONG LOL - I cannot wait for next gen.

Damnnn dude, I'm sorry. Internet caps are the fucking worst. Glad I've never had to deal with them. Can you look at the gifs in the reveal thread at least?Can't watch BF4 video because my Internet is capped for the next week and uni is out for Easter so can't watch it there either.

So DICE released a trailer, 17 mins of SP footage, and a Frostbite 3 info at their reveal?
I bet Bungie is so confused right now. They thought their Destiny reveal was so cool.

Yeah, tell me about it. My current plan runs out soon, so I'm going to switch over to something with more allowance at least. and yeah, trying to load the .gifs now. Only so much you can do with a 64kbps connection though haha (real speeds less than half of that)

We are self-admitted cowards in the Latvian Mafia. No doubt about it!
Where do you folks live? Just curious. My internet provider is really shitty and expensive. speeds capped at 25 mbps, and only 250 gb a month limit. Never come close to the limit. I wouldn't even have known they'd started limiting my internet but I got a letter.
That said, while Battlefield 4 looks glorious, I'm just over it. I just cannot get excited over that type of combat anymore.
Yes it looks damn fine and blows any previous shooter out of the water, but those on-rails segments, the blood spatter, meh.
Those poor doggies though.

SERIOUSLY. The Destiny reveal was so utterly underwhelming. I'm still really curious about what they chose to do it like that.
Because BF4 is coming out much sooner than Destiny.

Just be like everyone else and ignore anything SP for Battlefield. DICE is just incapable of making a campaign anything above decent. They only make them now so they can have something cool to put in their trailers.
Live in New Orleans btw. Not sure about the Interent fees, it's all combined with my utilities bill for my apartment. It's okay. As long as I'm not not signing in and out of Xbox Live, I'm good.
Yup. We still don't have a clue when Destiny is releasing and Battlefield 4 will be out this fall for PC, probably be a launch title for PS4 in winter or whenever the PS4 launches.
Australia here. I pay $100 a month for 15GB allowance at 4G speeds (it's wireless). Tend to use the 15GB by the third week or so....
But yeah. From the limited stuff I've seen, it looks great!

Does that mean BTB will be playable again? Anything is better than Infinity BTB
If that happens I will never buy another Halo game. And I'm a huge Battlefield fan. Keep that shit out of Halo. Oh wait, too late. RIP Halo.

So, why did Bungie reveal Destiny so early, then? To make the PS4 unveiling?

Yeah it appears that Destiny was clearly not ready to be shown off, so why did they show it off, when it looks like it's coming out next spring at the earliest?

They still overhyped it by a lot. I don't think there was one "editor" there that wasn't disappointed because they had to drive and spend their whole weekend there for generic phrases and seconds of gameplay.
Infinity BF4 BTB.
All map packs are large scale, except one arena style map is thrown in just to piss off people.
