It's funny because plenty of us are in the 20-25 age beacket so we'd have been a bunch of 12 year olds when CE came out.
How much coffee have you had this morning?

I was 10 when the first halo came out. Played it with my older brother and his friend. Got my ass kicked quite a bit. Good times.

I was 10 as well. I played it with my good friend. That's all we did whenever I came over. It was his brothers Xbox. All the good times in campaign...

I remember when Halo 1 came out. I was in 4th grade and bragged so hard to my friends that I got an Xbox with Halo CE, NFL Fever 2002, and Munches oddworld Odysee for Christmas. Balllllllin!
Imagine the Halo 1 Pistol on console with these controls.

It would be cool if Quinn got a GAF account. I'd like to hear what he disagrees with.

Quinn would be a foil to u4ix, calling it.

I was with you on the first part and then you had to go and finish the post off with a total bullshit-fest.

How come every time I visit this thread you guys are bitching about 'slurpers' and 'scrubs?' What the fuck are you even talking about and why are you guys so hateful all the time?
That's what I said the last time someone post this picture in this thread. Everyone should understand they grew up since this day, but new kids aren't a bad thing for Halo (well, I'm not talking about the progression system with the gameplay blablabla), at least for the community.
I was about 9 years old when I played CE for the first time, followed the serie since this day. I'm a bit surprised 343 Industries tried to make Halo a generic shooter, but I understand why they do that. Now, I just hope they learned something from Halo 4 and they will correct as many thing as possible for their next title.
This post was not about the multiplayer part of Halo (I think the arena shooter we loved is now gone), the next big thing I'm waiting for the future of Halo is a cross-media experience, and I hope 343 Industries will go further with the Spartan Ops on Halo 5.

There was a lot of hyperbole in there, but also some truth, from what I've seen.
Don't let it get to you, man. Cool and composed Ellis is the best Ellis.

Thinks the Evil Empire is just misunderstood.
"Caring about Halo" might have been a bit ignorant... I should have said "the competitive crowd".
Weren't you the guy who was upset that most of us hate people who play with Jetpack in combination with an AR? Do you also like Camo as AA?
And the last question can be answered easily : Because we want a good halo and many of us already did their calm and long posts what is wrong, now we are just ranting again.
Ellis, why no Spartan Ops2?
EDIT: I never inteded to say Jess isn't a good person or not really interacting in the sense of answering, I meant that she isn't a designer/developer and can't answer that many questions or like Quinn have any impact on design choices, I also see her rarely playing with folks like Quinn does.
I didn't meant to talk Jess down.

It's days like this make me wonder why I waste time posting in this thread.

Here's my 15 minute interview with Walshy - all about competitive gaming with sprinkles of Halo and me admitting, with no shame, I won't challenge him to a 1v1 in Halo 2: http://youtu.be/pt7P_Fw-4qA
I think you guys will REALLY enjoy this - especially competitive gaming advocates like myself. He had some great stuff to share.

Um ill take strafing over ordnance & AA's. Thanks.
really? gosh if you're playing casually the strafe is fine, that's why I said in default multiplayer. I wouldn't complain if AAs and ordnance were removed and we were left with a barebones 4.
not that I'm trying to justify a slow strafe. I'd like a faster strafe just like any other guy.
and sai, I'm talking about the worst case scenario. I'd be fine with both things altered.
The strafing in Halo 4 is slow and sloppy.

That seems like something that would be difficult to change. However, if they've made it so they can adjust auto-aim in gametype scripting...the gunplay could be modified to work better with the strafe mechanics we have, so that they are more effective, and without further title updates.
I know it's not something that can be changed easily in Halo 4. I just focusing on future Halo games. If they focused around Halo CE/2 style movement and lowered aim assist it would be a major step in the right direction.
If made a gametype where they left strafe acceleration as it currently is (since they can't mess with it), upped movement speed a bit, lowered auto-aim for BR (to counter the slow strafe), and maybe made the BR a 4sk...
I'd play the shit out of that.

I'm a little surprised 343 didn't release a "classic" gametype with the TU, so the BR could be a 4-shot without messing up the rest of the sandbox.

The individual weapon modification knobs they added are gametype specific, so they can do that.

No I know that. I mean I'm surprised they didn't release something to show it off. Sure we know its possible, but we have yet to actually play a gametype where things are modified.
