Interesting assertion. Let's discuss it for the next three pages.

Dude, that's Condrad. He's pretty much a joke character.

Reach needs another map pack with original maps. I can't play the current maps until 4 arrives.

Where's the joke? It's just terrible.
Edit : I'm really in the mood for some Team Objective. Someone party up with me!

As bad as the AR is it will never leave us.
I'm not saying there isn't going to be another map pack.
But there isn't going to be another map pack.

Never said this particular scene was funny but Conrad is a joke character in the Mass Effect universe. It's like looking at food nipple and saying that Halo has terrible writing.
I'm actually the opposite, playing Heavies is actually pretty fun. I've been playing it the past few days with friends and it's not too bad if we lose.
Feels like a new experience almost. If we keep getting things added or changed to the playlists, I think I may reach 8000 games by the time 4 drops.
Watching the HaloGAF montage again, Sai-kun's warthog splatter is the most amazing thing ever.
Dude, that is still just one of the greatest things to ever happen to me in Halo. My buddy (who was gunning, and sitting right next to me) and I were just crying and watching that over and over. The splatter + the snipe right after as we miss the teammate's face by inches is just
too perfect. Only Halo.
Pokemon and Halo, I lol'd
How aren't those 2 exploits the same? You're exploiting something that is difficult to do, in order to obtain a competitive edge over someone who may not know how to perform the same exploit.

Okay.
That food nipple comment reminds me of something I've been thinking about. I wonder if 343 is going to add Grunt-style joke characters to the new trilogy. I really really really hope not. I mean, I know Grunts will probably be making a return at some point, but I hope they play a minor role, and I hope they're replaced by low tier enemies that aren't so... slap stick. I've never really liked the silly nature of the Grunts, and the only reason they don't seem like much of an issue to me now is because I'm used to them. But now that series is starting fresh, I'd like to ditch the joke characters. I don't want Halo to be ultra serious, but perhaps a little less absurd in it's humor.
That's one mess of a paragraph, but I don't feel like cleaning it up, hah.
Edit : Love your new avatar, Sai-kun. Dunno who they are, but the picture is great.
One is about character progression and leveling stats, and another is about executing a game mechanic glitch. If someone joined a Halo match with a modded full-auto BR, it would be similar. Executing a button combo is not the same as having a glitched character in a RPG.
Maby we should start a kickstarter for Certain Affinity.

The gauss hog? That thing is chocolate Jesus wrapped in bacon.

Yeah I got that the other day, didn't see anything on what the update was.
Even if there was another map pack, what's the point, DLC does not show up in matchmaking with any regularity.

Is that a... good thing? haha
Gauss hog is awful, and shouldn't be in matchmaking.

When the vehicle is made of paper, and there are power weapons and vehicles littered everywhere I feel its balanced.
Then again I mostly play MLG so BTB is more of a goof off thing for me.
They could always stick more Forge maps in.
I see what you mean, that's probably not the best example. What other shooters have button combos? Halo 2 is the only one I can think of.
Moebius was an incredible artist. Just the other night I was watching the Aliens Blu-Ray extras going over his concept art for that film. The man was prolific and unique. His passing is a great loss.
Holy hell. 0_o
And you landed it with a beaten-to-shit hog too :lol
Can't wait to see what you all have for Reach. Bunch of sick double kills I bet.
I got to use one of those awhile back, the thing is basically a Sniper Rifle on wheels, I was crossmapping anyone who was in my circle. Overpowered doesn't begin to describe it.
How about you do not give them any ideas Plywood. HOW ABOUT YOU CENSOR YOUR POST.

I should have said "quality maps" in my original post I guess haha.
Who needs map packs when you have infinite options?
EDIT: Duncan, I have a song idea for you. A song about Forge World to this song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Egt1Hq4wpE

Played some Anniversary Slayer yesterday, won 16 games straight.
+12, +17, +3, +17, +7, +9, +13, +10, +15, +14, +14, +0, +23, +18, +17, +13. Wasn't really playingthe next game when we lost and I went -7 >.< I would've had 19 in a row with +19, +17, and +21.
Feels good, so much better than vanilla Reach.

Awful if your on the end of it, Its not as bad as in halo 2 or 3, its easily flipped with DMR fire and Hogs are like paper now.
Put me in the camp that likes it

Wow. Never thought I would get spoiled on a cool moment from Mass Effect 3 from browsing this thread. Thanks guys. :/
Conrad is cool?
Shadowrun in a way has button combos with the way quick casting works, but that is skill based and takes a lot of experience and practice to get good at, just like most of the Halo 2 glitches did.

Yeah. Would've been cool to find out on my own, but whatevs. Not too bitter about it, anyway. Just, disappointed. haha

Best part is how effectively the bulkiness of the gauss gun actually shields the head of the gunner. So taking the guy out from certain angles is near impossible.
the longer I look at that .gif the more it looks like Team America by the way the body is like a rag doll lol
