They also said that bubble shield is gone, if anyone cares.

Great news!

Hopefully there is also nothing homologous to a Regenerator, Power Drainer, or Armor Lock in the game either.

 

[Stinkles]

Why are they talking about the AR? Have they still not deleted it?

You spawn with a Plasma Pistol that shoots ARs.

 

[wwm0nkey]

You spawn with a Plasma Pistol that shoots ARs.

So Halo 2 mods are in then?

 

[Overdoziz]

You spawn with a Plasma Pistol that shoots ARs.

Why shoot when you can just sprint up to people and go for the double melee?

 

[HiredN00bs]

Who was the moron who decided on that?

 

[Domino Theory]

As long as Cocop works there, the AR will be the quintessential weapon of Halo.

 

[lybertyboy]

Because you'd die if you tried to do that.

Bubble cube confirmed

 

[CyReN]

Good podcadt.

Wonder if DMR will be nb, or both, or bloom.

 

[kittens]

DMR
AR :-(
No Bubble Shield :-|

 

[ElzarTheBam]

Because you'd die if you tried to do that.

I can just hear the crying from Myyke, I hope he's lurking. I really do.

 

[Fracas]

Warhouse confirmed terrible map. DMR coming back is hot though.

lol

 

[Overdoziz]

Because you'd die if you tried to do that.

So bleed-through is in.

 

[kittens]

What's happened to that kid? He posted often for a second and then disappeared.

 

[Tunavi]

for god sakes I hope they pick one and stick with it. Reach is a cluttered disaster.

 

[lybertyboy]

I was just commenting on your terrible melee accuracy.

 

[ElzarTheBam]

He's around, playing mass effect 3 whilst simultaneously engaging in beastiality...probably.

 

[CyReN]

I was just commenting on your terrible melee accuracy.

Is what happened to you really a glitch? That happens to be a fair amount on Zealot lifts when I follow someone and melee.

 

[op_ivy]

The DMR and The BR is in! 

called that shit and fuck yeah

 

[lybertyboy]

I know what you're talking about, but this was definitely a bug. It has since been fixed by one of our many awesome and talented and really good at Halo, engineers.

 

[Plywood]

Bloom finds a way to slip itself in. /conclusions

Don't you try and backpedal on me!

Nice to hear, glad that kind of stuff is getting nipped early.

 

[lybertyboy]

Don't you try and backpedal on me!

Why? I like to watch you whiff your melees.

 

[Fracas]

Bleedthrough has to be in, it would only make sense. The Reach shield/health system was complete garbage, surely H4 will have bleedthrough, right?

 

[kittens]

for god sakes I hope they pick one and stick with it. Reach is a cluttered disaster.

I could see bloom bring a viable option for reigning in the DMR without nerfing its range. Reach style bloom is definitely not what I want to see, though.

and lol @ Elzar.

Edit : and thanks to Ellis for answering questions / clarifying / mocking Over.

 

[Overdoziz]

1v1 me.

 

[HiredN00bs]

1v1 me.

ARs only.

 

[kylej]

lol

Mancannons to push you to the center, emphasis on skyboxes, random superfluous mech being built, multiple convoluted levels, dazzling visual style filled with crates and staircases and nonsense, Orbital similarities, etc. 343 loves their needlessly huge, boring maps too so I'm not sure how big it'll be.

I'm sure some will like it but the drabs of information we have are pretty much the polar opposite of what I want in a Halo map. Hopefully I'm wrong.

You getting on?

 

[Tashi]

DMR better for shooting opponents in mid-air. Makes me wonder about the bullet spread for the BR.

 

[Plywood]

Gimping BR confirmed

 

[kittens]

Yeah, same here. Need more info, lol.

 

[Fracas]

You getting on?

Yup, turning my box on now. Franklinator's gonna join us too, I think

Unless something has changed, then I'd still refer to this tweet from David that says there's no spread.

A man can dream.

 

[Tashi]

Congrats on THC content manager btw

 

[The Henery]

Fucking please tell me there's no rof related bloom in Halo 4. DMR and BR is interesting. Gonna be weird having two human precision rifles. Maybe the DMR will have a really slow rof while retaining its 3x scope.

 

[CyReN]

Congrats on THC content manager btw

We need more people prob if interested, its starting off very small at the moment.

 

[Risen]

Halo anyone?

I'll see if I can fill a role if needed. Writing articles sounds daunting.

Also, not sure what to take from their BR vs DMR on second thought. Not only will the game change drastically from now until release but I could probably beat everyone on todays podcast 1v4...in Halo 4. No offense.

 

[kylej]

Halo anyone?

Arena?

You gunna take that Frankie/David? You best 1v4 him in Halo 4 now.

Who is gonna be on tonight? I wanna get some post-birthday dong with my new Live subscription.

*Ain't confirmed but we can expect to have it or some other close range weapon.
**Same.

I believe the last time we faced each other in Halo, you were on the receiving end of me hitting your ceiling.

 

[kylej]

2 for Arena get on nerdlings and nerdettes. Scrublords and badkids also welcome.

 

[Plywood]

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

All this sexual innuendo is killing me now.

 

[Tashi]

Really? Props

Last time I remember us playing against eachother, you got the starring role in my CE map pack montage ;]

Lolol ply...Wood?
