wow Halo 4 is number eight now in the top 10 xbl. Not even a year old.
Great news for Speedy Blue Dude
Check his gamer pic and avatar.

Fuck, beat me to it. RoosterTeeth's got millions of followers so I'm sure their wacky, approachable antics are getting a lot of people re-hyped for the game.
Halo is the new Metroid.

With Halo 3 going free soon, did they ever fix the issue where the game ran much slower when installed to the hard drive? Or does that not apply to direct download games?
Also will need to switch over to 3 full time for a week or so before free month so I can memorize and time all the weapons again.

Have we even considered if this Halo XB1 Is An Campaign Expansion Dlc and the real Halo 5 or Spinoff will release in 2015???

Dedicated servers for Campaign?
Technically, they could do this for campaign co-op, if they want to go to asynch AI and get rid of the button press delays. Host the AI in an Azure instance and offload the bandwidth demand of 40+ AI to a neutral server.
There's a whole bunch of assumptions and doors this opens up.

We should be hearing about 343i's plans for Halo 2 PC any day now, right?
Come on Steam release!
Come on Steam release!
Oh yeah, it's all but confirmed!
Goes to show you how big of a difference there is between a 10/10 game and. 9.8/10
Hehehe
I'm surprised there's that many playing its MP to be honest. Free Roam is great for a week then it gets boring because there's nothing to do except drive around cars.
Easily worse than GTA III, Vice City, and San Andreas, but it seems Rockstar is pulling off a much better product in GTA V.
Soooo uhhh apparently that Microsoft esport survey I filled out awhile back got me a phone call with Microsoft and now I have to sign a NDA about stuff I will be hearing tomorrow....in the survey I did go on a HUGE rant about how Halo 2's 1-50 system was perfect for competitive community and eased newer players into the competitive side without having to sacrifice the skill gap.

NDA... what the hell for?
Stuff that will be talked about in a 2 hour phone call tomorrow apparently.
That's awesome!

wwm0nkey will save Halo
I am REALLY hoping this is about Microsoft's new Xbox Live matchmaking system.

Yeah, chances are we're getting 1-50 ranks for some bullshit like FIFA.

Well sadly I can not post anything that I say or hear tomorrow so just look out for either a:| or
Can you post random responses today and attach a number prior to signing and hearing of info and then post the number that corresponds during your NDA?
Like a sexy loophole.
Wow. And to think Halo 4 will be out of the top 10 soon too - Splinter Cell, GTAV, CoD Ghosts, BF4, AC, [Halo 3?] and Watchdogs are all going to destroy it. Game isn't even a year old.
I guess that's what happens when you fuck with a franchise and alienate all your fans.
eh that might work, or I will just do what CBOAT does XD
but I will probably remain silent unless its really small because all I know so far is that I am 1 of 50 people who got selected to do this and the survey was only about competitive gaming.

Keep tight lipped dude, a smile will be enough for now otherwise microsoft will not play nice.
To have a global phone call about halo 4 though I don't quite understand the reasons.
Yeah thats my plan, first time signing a NDA too
Also its not just about Halo, not even sure if Halo will be mentioned.
lol, maybe next time.
Also, wtf, when was this eSports survey? I would've gone ham on that if I'd known about it.
I get random surveys from time to time because I signed up for the Microsoft Game Studio Beta program on connect.microsoft.com
Got a copy of Halo 4 for a Happy Wars survey before lol
I can see it now...
"After an extensive phone call with an anonymous NeoGAF user about the competitiveness of Halo, we have included a new Ordnance Plus(tm) and Accurate Sight System(tm) (ASS for short) in Halo 5.
The Ordnance Plus system will allow players to call in their own personal Scarab or Banshee Strikes! The ASS system will allow players to sacrifice their mobility for the sake of their accuracy! We felt these changes fit our vision of making Halo more accessible(tm) for everyone."

Don't know why you'd risk it... Your steam/gamertag are shown here, as is your location. They're pretty ruthless against people who break NDA and they almost always find out, especially as Frankie and Ellis browse here.
That being said, hopefully you get asked some exciting questions for the future of eSports/Halo.

Don't worry no NDAs will be broke even though that might make some here sad lol
I am sure there will be one or two Halo things in there.
What the flying fuck, I've been signed up there since 2009 iirc. Why the hell did they never email me? Is it because I wasn't in the US at the time I signed up? Someone at MS is getting sued for racism because I want me free copy of Halo 4.
Survey thing is like a lottery, I got lucky....2 times apparently lol

Yea they called me for something once, and then said I didn't qualify when I told them I wasn't a fan of heavy metal music.
I got called once for a Game of Thrones thing but then because I didn't have HBO they also said I did not qualify, this is the first time I do!
Also just read the NDA....yeah I aint breaking shit lol
