Halo |OT3| Remember Reach?

LOL. At some point, there had to have been a meeting where a person or a group of persons put forward the ideas of BR spread, bloom, and more 5-shot kills, and instead of being fired on the spot, their ideas were implemented.

Let's take the worst aspects of Halo 3 and Reach, combine them with thinly-veiled CoD ripoffs, and get filthy rich.

OK, you are right at the edge of annoying at this point.

Put him on ignore. It's not like he's giving any new insight. Just repeats. You can fit one extra post per page. I am literally surprised HE'S not bored of it yet. I like it though. It's unusual - like horseradish candy or liquorice bread.

Stop being charismatic...you are distracting me from complaining.

Reach was bad. He does not want another bad game.

Nah, these people are always around. They're the same ones who were fellating Bungie during the Reach beta and during the lead up to release, and then they moan because the game didn't turn out the way they want. Do I think bitching will make 343 change one thing about Halo 4? Nope, but I'd rather do it than sit there and go "gee wilikers, this news sounds interesting, it could be good, or it could be bad, I dunno!"
 
I feel like HaloGaf is gonna divide into factions and there will be war.
Red vs. Blue.

It never ends. Nothing ever ends.

And believe me, I understand the bitching, worry and FUD. But we do still have to give at least most of the benefit of the doubt to those who have had actual time with the game along with those who are testing it on a regular basis, don't we?

It basically was considering the spread.

With faster kill times sprint wouldn't be as offensive, but it appears that won't be the case.

I still got 4 shot kills but definitely not as much as I did in MLG because MLG increased the weapon damage.

edit: Frank any other Halo 4 play time events in NY?

I wish I could something new (and positive) but so far Halo 4 MP sounds like it's the opposite of Batman so I really can't.

I know. I'm not one to not have an opinion either. I won't like a product just because I like the people making it.

I need to play online with you and juices again sometime.

Speaking of Game of Thrones, you guys watch South Park last night? Mr Garrison was teaching it to the students in the episode. It was pretty cool.

edit: I call Team 2

I don't mind at all. As long as you actually play it when it comes out to see if you like it or not, then you're free to opine endlessly.

So one question about that southpark episode.

did Kyle get those tickets because people thought he was gay and watching those 2 teams play is"gay"?
 
Juices said it all the years. We have to adapt. If we do not adapt, we will die. He was right the whole time.


I see no problem with bloom back. DMR has to be different than the BR. And bloom is perfect for it. And according to Killa's preview, it is different. So I can live with it. I'm going to adapt it.
 
Just to be crystal clear, IF you want to play with your wireless controller in Halo 2 Vista, you must have the Microsoft Wireless 360 accessory adapter from the picture. It is $10 and THE ONLY official way to play with your wireless controller. The Play and Charge Kit cord will only charge the controller.

Wired controllers work with no setup.

Thanks for double checking that, man. I thought that was the case.

I'm not exactly sure why he got those tickets but I don't know where you got that idea from lol. I didn't get that from it at all. I thought the tickets were from Cartman to get Kyle out of the picture so Tolken and Nichole can get together. That's my theory.

All I know is that with both the DMR and BRs being on the field I'm going to be oh so more hesitant about breaking out the trusty jetpack.

Curious, are things still being tweaked weapon wise on feedback and preferences or are things like the Bloom, 5 shot BR for sure in the final game?

lol

I just assumed Matt and Trey consider those 2 teams really bad so they insinuated that watching them play is less than manly

Well they need the Denver Nuggets because the show takes place in Colorado. Why they picked to face the clippers I don't know (Blake Griffin looked hilarious). They're both Playoff teams this year so I'm not sure that's the reason. But, they are historically "bad" teams. In the 90's the Denver Nuggets were pretty fucking bad. That seemed to change when they got Carmelo. They made the playoffs but never went that far. I'm rambling about basketball now lol, sorry.

All the more reason to get rid of it. ;)

Speaking of jetpack, I am slowly preparing myself for 343i to announce that fall damage is back to help balance it out. Unless they found a way to make fall damage only happen when you have the jetpack – that would be awesome.

I'd like to know this too.

No, that's what I wanted to know. I stopped following basketball a few years ago since none of the tv channels over here care about it so I have no idea of which team is bad or not.

Motherfuckers gettin' salty in this bitch.

I know it's Gaf, but damn. I haven't heard of one person who has played the game that said they were worried about all the controversial things we've read about. They all say it plays great and every time we read something that sounds concerning, someone who's played the game (or worked on the game) jumps in soothes the nerves. I know it won't work with everyone, but from what I've seen here (and in various other communities), the guys who are most vocal about how they hate something they read about in Halo 4 end up being ok after being talked down off the ledge with some clarifications here and there.

As soon as we start getting some videos, nerves will calm for most and we'll be stoked, yes stoked, to get our hands on it.

Can't wait to *see* more.
 
I'll definitely play it. I'll buy the game anyway to play through campaign (which sounds cool so far).

You'll be an Inheritor in H4 in a month.


Also yes barlow and Kyle both need to get on more. Same with all of HaloGAF. I've resorted to making random friends in MM this kid I've been playing with is fucking ridiculous he averages like 23 snipes a game. He is carrying me in SNIPES kids gotta be on ritalin or something.

Dude, you need a job with a real work schedule. Drop out and go pro. I can't blain at 2am, I gotta get up and lift then go work bright and early.

Stop being the voice of reason.

I want to see this crazy train derail and hit into a mountain. LET THE CHAOS INSUE!
