This all makes sense.

Sarah Palmer is the Jar Jar Binks of Halo

 

[Fuchsdh]

No, those were so out of place and stupid in reach.

Well, canonically they would have made more sense in Halo 4.

It's pretty clear a lot of people like progression systems that give you cosmetic stuff, so why not cater to those players? Competitive types can ignore it. Besides, I think most people here would rather have unlocks be purely cosmetic than gameplay-altering, so a larger bevy of stuff seems like a good fit. I think the progression system itself should probably take the best parts of Reach's Armory and Halo 4's level unlocks and combine them.

Very cool.

Too bad the game is still Killzone.

What do you think of the new Halo logo?

I prefer the blue one like halo 4.

Jesus. I've never played a Killzone game but that feature set alone (not to mention all classes unlocked from the beginning) is making me reconsider.

 

[heckfu]

Ozzy banned from here and Moa banned from Waypoint? The reckoning is here.

Just wait until you play them. They are the epitome of everything wrong with this gen's shooters.

I was watching the GiantBomb stream when this happened. So funny.

Ozzy got banned? What did he do?

yeah I am actually working on a project right now, and I have assembled all the different title logos for the Halo games I own, Reach really started the change, then 343 tweaked that a little for the logo going forward

Spoiler

I know the order is not correct, its the order I finished them in

Spoiler

kerning on the word "reach" looks off

 

[CyReN]

Quick Ricochet Record Game.

 

[J10]

Piss filter aside, the Pit remake looks pretty good in motion. I bet it's a ton of fun to play on sans AAs.

[Demoncarnotaur]

Second half of the game turns into Pacific Rim.

Elbow rocket!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RyLXNtSsmT8&

So here is the survivor package. First game of the day and first time using it and within 5 minutes, I knew how terrible it was. The guy shot me with a rocket, and I would have died, but nope, a perk allowed me to live, in which I then killed the guy who shot me.

Wow. Wtf 343. =/

If you were wondering what was in the TU, here are a shitload of unannounced weapon and armor skins someone found.

EDIT: A few of these appear to be related to Spartan Assault.

Oh, interesting. We know there will be even more with the toys this fall.

All these new skins and we still don't have an Orbital variant without the skull.

I know, too bad since that helmet looks great without it.

Someone forget the change the target poster to the new Grunt design?

:lol wtf

At least its the superior design.

did you just quote your own tweet master race

Wow, they didn't say anything about this before launch of the DLC.

 

[Hey You]

Did anyone ever track down that multi team gametype?

 

[Madness]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4OydfJB_nhc

1080P TitanFall gameplay without signing in lol. Pretty intense. The seamless transition between Titan and on foot looks great. I can really see PC'ers and many other shooter lovers play the hell out of this game. The fast movement, wall and double jumping etc.

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

Ricochet is a lot of fun when you have a decent team. The Pit works well for it.

 

[Enter The 36 Chambers]

That'll never happen for Halo.

 

[xxjuicesxx]

Can someone explain Ricochet to me? It looks really dumb. Like Grifball but with walls and AA's and no instant respawn.

Seems super easy to get it into the area for a split second, shouldn't they have an arm time and just call it assault?

 

[Fuchsdh]

Yep, Ricochet is a lot of fun, the Pit is the Pit, and Vertigo works really well for extraction. The zappers felt like they had their use and weren't obnoxious, here's to hoping there's more interactive maps in Halo's future again.

Blasted through the achievements with a crew from HBO, glad they're out of the way.

It's a faster-paced Assault or Flag. You can play it "straight" and walk it in or you can throw it into the goal or to your allies. Basically assault if you could throw the ball. It's a blast, especially with good teams.

 

[Enter The 36 Chambers]

Ricochet is a puzzle mode. At the start 5 loadouts are shown. You have to try recreate these loadouts before time runs out. If you win you unlock new perks.

It's not easy at all unless you're playing a bad team, especially on the Pit. You can score by running the ball into the zone or throwing it in (50pts for a run, 20 for a throw). You basically try to get the ball into the other team's goal. It feels different from assault. Faster.

 

[belushy]

I have no intention of buying this pack, but Ricochet did look very fun from the videos Beyond posted and were streaming earlier. Competitive? Maybe at a high level but it seems pretty easy to pub stomp on it in matchmaking.

Well, you can say that about basically any gametype.

It's coming to general matchmaking as it should in a few weeks though so you don't have to buy it. Not sure what maps it will work really well on though... Skyline, maybe, although the throws would seem really easy.

 

[xxjuicesxx]

I dunno dudes, sounds really easy to get a win. Are good teams even still playing Halo 4? I heard all the good players left to games that have money on the line.

He's going pro in Dota 2.

You'll see his Jerry Maguire kid face in the International 5 Compendium.

I thought Ricochet was getting its own playlist?

 

[malfcn]

I forgot DLC was out today.

 

[Dongs Macabre]

I thought Ricochet was getting its own playlist?

Probably eventually. Right now it's for people who own the DLC, though, and only works on one map.

 

[belushy]

I thought Ricochet was getting its own playlist?

If I'm not mistaken they will add the playlist in like two weeks, or something like that. That is when it goes public for everyone and not just the Champions Bundle buyers(at least i think that is what I read a while back).

 

[m23]

What do you find appealing about it?

I have a weak spot for mechs.

Same here.
MechAssault. MA2: Lone Wolf.

 

[ExigentContact]

You can do this in Halo: CE aboard the Pillar of Autumn

Except in Halo CE betrayed Marines don't have reticle magnetism (IIRC), which automatically makes it less fun. And the most memorable area to betray Marines made them invincible.
