Halo |OT18| We're Back Baby!

- Start date
Played TS and LS BR's in the infinity playlist tonight and it felt good. There are still kids voting for infinity though. Most of the people still playing H4 like it for some reason.
I'm pretty much pro level status in rocket race if you didn't know. Check my montages out bro. PM if you have any questions.

If you get every achievement in Halo 4 it levels itself off. Halo 4 has 2,000 Gamerscore.
What map(s) did you play on?
They mentioned at some point that there was a certain gametype in Reach that supported more than 16 players. I don't think it was named, though. Maybe the original version of Invasion? It was cut and the game was returned to the usual 16 max.
What has definitely never been mentioned is the map that Boneyard replaced. It's location got cut from Campaign and Boneyard had to be converted from campaign to make up the slot. That's all we know.
Easier said than done. Especially with some of the shitty achievements that Halo 4 has given us.

Playing new Ricochet playlist. First game is Haven. Works pretty well. Pretty fun.
Second game, we are outvoted and have to play Solace.
THEY WILL NEVER FUCKING LEARN! FIRST FUEL RODS ON THIS MAP, NOW THIS!?

There's a Binary Rifle on the other side base.........
Fuck, you made me remember that 'you ate all the chips' achievement in Reach. Was stuck with my first ever weird ass number for achievements. Took me forever with a solid team to do that one and get all the Noble achievements. Had to like cap all the flags before the timer ran out. Did it with a great group on Anchor 9.
I'm so over achievements and gamerscore though. Hope you can turn this off or make it less prominent for XbOne.

No, and usually not on objective. AT LAUNCH in slayer, yes. But apparently you have trouble reading spoilered text.
I made a HaloGAF group on LastFM if anyone wants to join or add me.
If anything, achievements are going to be ever more prominent - especially considering devs can add them whenever and the old limits aren't relevant anymore
Gotta evolve dat gaming legacy bro!
(still think Achievements are okay, but people attach a bit too much to them sometimes)
Yeah, agreed.
...
Since when are there bald marines in Halo CEA? I swear I've been through the campaign at least 6 times and tonight was the first time I've seen one. Just struck me as odd, hah
Plus 343i should totally get the voice actor for Captain Keyes back to voice another character. His voice is so awesome (other than Sgt. Stacker :lol)
It was a really great surprise to have Stacker pop up on "Reclaimer".

Don't tell Sage... He'll nerf it.

Anyone know if the Xbone will support Dolby IIz front height channel audio? I'm setting up a system with it at the moment, it would be nice if games supported it.
No idea. What is this front height business?
11/22 launch for the Xbox One, slight speed bumps and eight controller support. Interesting.
Even if he basically just says what he did in Halo 3
...
So, November 22nd for Xbox One. The plan was to get one on launch, but after working out how much it's going cost me (putting cash aside each week), I think it's too expensive for me to get at release. I'd have to give up taekwondo classes, any random expenditures (including GTAV + Supernatural Season 8 later this month) and even then I'd be $20 short (To get console + two games at release will cost me more than $800AUD).
Oh the perils of being an unemployed university student. Will see what happens early next year, I guess. Really wanted to get that next-gen BF4 experience too. :\

You buy DVD box sets? There's your problem right there
I'm laughing at gaming side taking every bit of Xbox One news as negative. The cognitive dissonance. "They speed bumped it?
... That means its build quality must have been sacrificed right?"

I love boxsets! I have a huge collection of tv shows that I plan to watch when I'm old and retired... haha.
Gaming side has been full of comments like that for a while now. I've learnt to just ignore them. But yeah, I seriously doubt that MS would allow something such as the RRoD to happen again
I still buy my CDs, but I just never watch seasons often enough to justify box sets I guess. That's what my Netflix is for.
Ok, so now that we've got the One release date, take your bets for the Halo 5 release date!

Basically instead of having your regular 5.1 or 7.1 channel speakers, you have two extra speakers above your main left and right, providing '3d' audio. It's a bit of a gimmick at the moment as there is no content that supports it (however Dobly ProLogic IIz can route certain audio to them).
Here's Dolby's explanation

Is there any way to play Ricochet offline without XBL Gold?

Gaming side has been full on anti-xbox mode since the DRM news. I tend to ignore those threads save for the information/links in the OPs now.
Yeah, you have people in there claiming that a CPU boost is bad news.......
Can grab it off someone's file share I guess... Ill upload it tonight if you want.

I might wait until Halo 5 bundle with XBO.
Why do you say that?
They don't have the best history of being 'reliable'. You're taking a decent risk by buying at launch.
...
and haha, junior'd. I was just having some fun. Oh well!
Yeah, I guess. My first 360 did die out but I got lucky and it was covered by warranty. Still, I enjoyed many games I otherwise wouldn't have since I tend not to buy older games.
And yeah, I saw the thread lol. I guess people didn't get it.
The only thing worth buying at launch is Apple products.

Ok, lifelong Apple fan here, and that statement is stupid. Sure, Apple products are well-made and don't have anything on the realm of RRoD, but come on. G4 Windtunnel. IPhone 4 antennas. They've had their own share of defects and issues.

lol.
I shall enjoy my brand new Xbox One and PS4 while you sit around playing Candy Crush!
Fixed.
