Do you have to be a GF member?
Action Sack needs more minigames and not variants of Slayer/CTF. That Grill thing looks like a ton of fun.
RIP Dodgeball.
Dodgeball? Is that the one where the two teams throw sticky grenades at each other from two different platforms? It probably wouldn't work as well with all the magnetism stickies seem to have these days anyway...
San Andreas has more stream viewers than Halo 4.

Whuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut.overdoziz has always been an asshole
On my phone just go on twitch and sort by games it's about 5th rowSomeone is streaming San Andreas!?? Link me.
Because San Andreas is awesome. Best GTA game to date, IMO.San Andreas has more stream viewers than Halo 4.
Oh right. Yeah that could work.You could make the arena much, much larger. In Halo 3, it was tiny. Maybe give people TP to add another layer. And about the magnetism- I think the ones in Reach were a lot worse. I'll chuck a nade at a dude and watch it whiz by, but that's just me .
You need a account, not a active sub to their service.
I'm taking a break from Halogaf I have so many memories but the negativity's just too strong I'm sooo depressed all the time reading this thtread Master Chief is my best friend and it's like my other friends are beating him up and calling him names
Your posts are pretty good though
You bring up valid points. But yeah, seeing all the people leave HaloGAF makes me , even though I'm probably on most of your ignore lists.
Seeing that picture, I'm gonna come out and say Halo 4 is my favorite Halo art wise.
The Covenant look alien and hostile. The UNSC stuff looks militaristic and minimalist. The Forerunner things look elegant and smooth.
I'm also glad the UNSC weapons actually looks like weapons from the future. The Halo 4 BR is my favorite one artistically, it just sounds like utter crap.
The biggest problem with this thread right now is that people think being a sarcastic jerk is cool.
A couple of posters started this and almost everyone followed.
I remember Over used to be super nice before he joined GAF while watching Halo streams and now he's a sarcasm robot.
Nothing against him but it's true.
Being sarcastic, rude and "mean" on the internet doesn't mean you're cool, kids. Drop that kind of stuff and this place becomes more pleasant and a nice to hang around.
Doesn't help that the OP is basically a middle finger to 343.
I'll slow down the criticism. There will be less posts as a bonus too.
My problem with Brutes was that they were big goofballs. They weren't really intimidating and kinda made the game feel a bit too cartoony. The Halo 2 Brutes actually made me jump a few times because of their berserking.
I still think H2 Elites > all enemies since.
When you saw this, you knew shit was about to hit the fan.
With the exception of the big toe nails I love how this looks
The reason this happens is simple. You can spend a few hours carefully constructing a long and well thought out post filled with insight and constructive criticism and it will almost instantly be tossed aside and forgotten on a previous page. Sarcasm and meme/gif/insults seem to actually garner discussion (even in a limited sophomoric way).
You just convinced me everyone in this thread should be a sarcasm bot!
Spartan Ops: The LineOT but holy shit at the message conveyed in spec ops the line.
If only more military games were brave enough to centre around the moral choices made in war.
If you can look past the average gameplay, I would recommend it based on the narrative alone, HaloGaf.
The setting is also quite spectacular.
Seriously? Game is the blandest in the entire series, IMO.Seeing that picture, I'm gonna come out and say Halo 4 is my favorite Halo art wise.

It's just the way it is. People join HaloGAF and try to start discussion or have a real, honest, conversation about the game/universe/etc. When that attempt is met with sacaram GIFs and the general flow of "this game sucks, stop trying to save it" they either leave the thread completely (or take a break) or they join in.
It's not a good thing, but from the beginning you know the end.
Dax should definitely get the next OT.How about everyone stops acting like giant douchers?* I know for a fact I've been one on here. I look back at those older posts and want to slap myself. I've called 343 a bunch of monkeys working on this game on multiple occasions. Pretty fucking douchey on my behalf. Shit, the vast majority of my posts have been fucking terrible. It's hard not to be a filterless asshole on the Internet but you have to try. Scrap that, just do it.
Maybe let Dax make the next OT? That would set the tone of the entire thread. IDK though, just a thought.
*not everyone acts like one
The problem with most of the new people that try to engage in or incite an discussion usually fall victim to the mentality of HaloGAF vs me. That already sets a precedence, it sounds like the person will never respect or even acknowledge the other voices in the thread. I think that rubs regulars the wrong way and that is why new people sometimes are ridiculed to some extent. The person kind of forfeits that people will take him or her seriously.The reason this happens is simple.

HaloGAF has its rhythm. We bitch, moan, discuss, argue like clockwork about everything and anything. If you want to have your opinion heard, stop blaming and attacking the community and actually engage. People will know when its a quality post. If nothing happens, well at least you tried something.
Yeah, you could say that about some regulars too. I just feel that entry to barrier would much more easier for everybody if we stopped attacking the community as a hivemind. Everybody still has their opinions, some strong of course, but its much better than people doing the whole Im taking a break from HaloGAF thing.The problem is that for the most part, it's the regulars that cause and perpetuate this.
No OP has ever done that really.
I Think he had a falling out with 343 because of how they're treating him/CCs. see his tweets that were posted a couple of days agoDid he quit or something?
Glad someone gets it.No OP has ever done that really.
Stockholme Syndrome is a pretty good song.Some major stockholme syndrome going on in here.
No, thanks.Lets be friends

I bet it would become a more pleasant and nice place to hang around if the owners of the Halo franchise produced and released a passable Halo videogame

Can I counterbalance all this complaining and meta-complaining with free stuff? No? Well, might as well try.
I have no idea what this stuff is, beyond being Halo-related (possibly avatar items). Thanks to Bsangel and Rev from HBO's awesome LAN.
