Tonight there was more people on Reach than Halo 4. So yea I guess cause its more fun and a better game.
Imagine reading this post a year ago.
I'm sure the space time continuum has actually broke.

Ok guys I just got done play testing the new Murder Miners update again and for the competitive types, on map weapon spawns change the pace of the game and make map control key and increases the skill gap with pistol/AR starts. Also the hookshot basically makes you spider man.
Also something I can't go into to much detail about because its a bit off but just got the ok to say, there will be DLC for the game via code in another cheap game (game is being made only so they can sell DLC) but one of the items it will unlock will make you burst with joy.
*not so subtle hint*
EDIT: Preview of the new update. Hookshot is still in the works but we needed to showcase it.

You can join. I just get tired of MLG over and over. I do like mixing it up with all the crap.

It's wasn't that bad to me actually. I had fun! Totally didn't see myself going back to Reach this much though
I'm not touching anything out of MLG. I've played 321 matches of Reach since Halo 4 came out of which 314 were in the MLG playlist. Even though playing solo can suck sometimes it's so much better than anything else in Reach or Halo 4. Now stop crying about getting shit on and play MLG some time.

hmmm maybe my hint was a bit harder than I thought
well in that case I guess I don't actually care what it is
Hey who knows they might add that as well since they have pretty good post release support.
I went back to Reach tonight. Mainly because my internet is still capped and I can't download the TU for Halo 4, but also because I had an urge to play it for some reason. Well after a few games I have to say, Reach is just as crap as I remembered it to be. Everything looks like smudgy shit and it all plays very frustratingly. I don't think I'll ever get to a point where I'll consider Reach better than Halo 4.
Halo 3 is where it's at.

Anyone have a hunch that Legendary Slayer might be a
variant of classic Slayer?
If so, I think it'd be nice to start forging some classic looking maps.

I put the tracks on the Halo 4 vol. 1 and 2 soundtrack together, and in chronological order. If anyone's interested, I can post the tracklist.

My Guardian remake is nearly all but done, just need to place spawns kills zones and weapons. It is by no means a perfect remake but it is pretty close.

343....ouch!
While I absolutely agree that Reach is a better game than 4 I think the Reach population counter is broken. It has been reading the same numbers for quite some time.

Maybe the Halo 4 counters are broken too. Maybe the population isn't steadily decreasing.
God, I'm sick of Microsoft. They are and have always been a thorn in this franchise. And now they're completely running it
into the ground.

Why pick the BTB type that consisted of the Spartan Laser, equipment, did not utilize 1-flag or 1-bomb well at all/ignored it, Assault was instant-arm, and a set of mediocre maps?
Grenades have been either too strong or too spammy. Halo 4 has had that mixture in between, but even then it's all because they made the Resupply tool as a goddamn 'upgrade'. On some maps we can see a player obtain all three types of grenades, which I don't like.
Melee has been a bigger mess.

I said goddamn. Looks really good. Not a pixel perfect remake by any standard but looks incredibly solid.

Hardest forge map I've ever made. I wish 343 just remade it so I didn't have to bother hahaha.

I just showed my old Halo 3 Doubles partner (so we played guardian ALOT) and he said good job. Interestingly however he also said
"Shame the forge objects look like plastic ass" Nice to see even those who dropped Halo during reach still thing forge is bland.
How would he know what plastic ass looks like?
Edit: that Blood Dragon leak looks amazing.

No dude it's 2 bricks of ramen with a slice of cheese in the middle popped in the microwave. Poor student grilled cheese.
That looks awesome. Tashi, get that shit in matchmaking.
Yeah. Thats why Reach is #16, because the population from #5 to #16 is only a thousand or two.
Have some common sense. No, Reach's population didn't exceed Halo 4. Like, if you thought for 5 seconds you would be "oh well that doesn't add up, its not true", whether or not what the population counter says on the game.
Yeah, because the most played list only takes into account active players at one specific moment in time. oh wait...
It's perfectly reasonable to think that at times some of the lower ranked games have a higher online population.

We need some of these remakes in matchmaking stat. Guardian brings back good memories.

Major Nelson's weekly Live charts are based on the total number of unique users who have played that week. There's nothing to stop Reach having a higher current population than Halo 4 now and again whilst attracting less unique users over the course of a week.
You get that, right?
