Florida/Marquette tonight. Big potential to be ugly for the Gators. :^(
Alright my ride will here shortly, if you can make sure to tune in this weekend to support Halo.
Here's my info too.
Good luck mayne!
here is the new mainstage for halo
This is the worst part of Reach's existence. Such a horrendous turd that it even killed MLG Halo. Bungie is terrible.
I know Cyren said the seating isn't done, but they probably won't need many more seats than that.
The number of chairs is representative of Reach's place on the XBL Activity list.
It's too fuckin hot.
Haha, in thr car now. 3 hours,to go.

As far as MLG, do you think it could spice things up if they could add a live in-game person (i.e. a 9th player)? This person would be kind of like a camera man for the audience, able to flip between people (both 3rd and first person), and free float the camera? SC has a similar dynamic and it really engages the audience quite a bit.
Halo 4 maybs?

Only if the spectator ghost guy is invisible. A floating/walking invisible camera. I think it'd be too much of a distraction otherwise. But it would still be hard to show the full scope and all the simultaneous action happening at any given moment.
Yes a spectator mode that is actively keeping track of the events taking place in the match would make a world of difference. It would do wonders for grassroots Halo events too. It would breed comentators and would require minimal equipment to broadcast a high production feeling stream/event.
I'm intrigued... but first person is so much more exciting. Seeing a clutch play in the first person, with rock solid aim, under high pressure pulling multi-kills is lost in third person.
A lot of what makes Halo great to watch is just that... watching from a great player's perspective. You lose that with a floating camera.
Seems like it would have to be mixed in sparingly.

It seems like a spectator mode in the vein of the Starcraft mode should be able to flip between peoples first person views. That said its not something I see working for a FPS game like Halo, outside of Lan's. Connection would kill it.

Good luck dude, don't choke!
No no no, of course first person. You can never get rid of that. However theres no way a caster can keep track of all players. Have the game assist the caster though. Let him know when a power weapon has been grabbed or when a player gets a double kill or something like that.

Any of ye guys drink this stuff?
This stuff is the nectar of the gods. It's a Canadian brand that seems to be pretty popular over here. Popular-ish.

Best of luck Cyren! Better get there a night early so you can be one of 8 spectators with a seat!

Shit's been around for a while. They have all kind of off the wall flavors (like really weird).
Wow. Trials coming out soon too with an amazing editor.
Seems like they've got that tech in place with ATLAS, building it into the game itself and giving basically a Live Theater mode would be great. Those Starcraft spectator tools are really the bar they should aim for.

Yeah, it's been out here for years too but was surprised when Xand and ACM said they hadn't heard of it. We only get the not-so-weird flavours.
This project is killing my gaming. I'll be back on Reach in a week.

Yeah, Jones Soda has been around for a while here on the US West Coast. My buddies and I were really into the bubblegum flavor back in middle school, circa 1998.
Agreed. Damn what if MS sold a specator application that connects a PC with all 8 Xbox 360's on LAN or can even tap in on Xbox Live. Like, you join a custom game as a specator, boot up the application on your PC. You turn your PC into a broadcasting booth.
Ship it.
DAMN IM GOOD!!!

This has probably been asked...
I am creating a custom game type and my buds want it to feel like Halo 3. Anyone have the proper Base Trait settings? I am talking about gravity, speed and jump etc.
Thanks

0% bloom, 0% Armor Abilities and 0% Loadouts.

Dont think you can set Bloom. How about the others?
Zeouterlimits

Oh I believe it's real.
Either terribly implemented by Bungie or just a useless algorithm but probably a mix of both.
you can download settings that have 0% bloom and you can change the others yourself

Once again rolling Halo 3 Team Slayer if anyone wants to join. You know, TS is a pretty good playlist. Yeah, sometimes you get stuff like AR starts on Standoff but mostly it's games like Team BRs on Citadel.

Yeah, go to the in-game file share (in the Start button menu), do a search for Halo Waypoint, and download the TU Zero Bloom (not sure on the exact name) gametype. From there, I'm 80% sure you can edit the gametype more yourself. Remove armor abilities, bump movement speed and jump height to 110%. That's about as close as you can get, I think.
Really hope something like this gets implemented with the Next Box.

A DLC map in Halo 3 matchmaking, I don't believe you.

You can download zero bloom gametypes?
I know you can change base traits, I was wondering what people were using for Halo 3 type settings.

Oh man, I remember that stuff. Haven't seen it in years, though maybe I'm just not looking for it.

We really need some Halo 4 info. Just one gameplay vid from Wraparound or something would be nice.

Perhaps you could elaborate or retract your ignorant suggestion.
