A lot of things to do between now and the media briefing. Super excited about the campaign footage and even more about Spartan Ops later this day! Oh yeah!

[04:39] == MTW [~MTW@pool-98-114-203-18.phlapa.fios.verizon.net] has joined #halogaf
[04:39] <MTW> HELLO
[04:39] <MTW> THIS IS MTW SPEAKING
[04:42] <Ryaaan14> Screenshots or it didn't happen
[04:42] <MTW> oh? screenshots of what?
[04:43] <Ryaaan14> Beta menu.
[04:43] <MTW> sure.
[04:43] <MTW> let me wake up my xbox.
[04:43] <Ryaaan14> Waiting.
[04:43] <MTW> you're going to be waiting at least 5 minutes.
[04:43] <Ryaaan14> Well fucking hell. brb setting alarm clock
[04:44] <Ryaaan14> That dilapidated dev console?
[04:44] <MTW> what?
[04:44] <Ryaaan14> I have an OG brick and that shit boots up in a good 20 secs.
[04:44] <MTW> i had to plug a console actually in
[04:45] <MTW> and pull the photo out of Photo Stream
[04:45] <MTW> which is what i am currently waiting on
[04:45] <Ryaaan14> So while we wait for your shit to boot
[04:45] <MTW> there we go
[04:45] <Ryaaan14> What do you think of HaloGAF
[04:45] <MTW> I approve.
[04:45] <MTW> http://i.imgur.com/EgHKG.jpg
[04:46] <Ryaaan14> I have one final request.
[04:46] <Ryaaan14> Before I totally believe you
[04:46] <MTW> ask and we shall recieve
[04:46] <MTW> so long as it isn't me fucking myself
[04:46] <Ryaaan14> Write on a little note "Hello HaloGAF" on the shotgun loadout
[04:46] <Ryaaan14> So you can see both
[04:46] <MTW> hah.
[04:47] <MTW> let me see
[04:47] <Ryaaan14> That'll make the internet explode
[04:47] <MTW> instead of writing, I will print a note.
[04:47] <Ryaaan14> Kotaku will probably net around $5k from it
[04:47] <MTW> fuck Kotaku, seriously
[04:47] <Ryaaan14> No, write it.
[04:47] <MTW> my hand writing is attrocious
[04:47] <Ryaaan14> Print can be photoshopped.
[04:47] <Ryaaan14> idc
[04:47] <Ryaaan14> So is mine bro
[04:47] <MTW> well, let's find a pen...
[04:48] <Ryaaan14> Actually
[04:49] <MTW> this is going to take some doing. written.
[04:49] <Ryaaan14> While you do that, why don't you make a tweet @Ryaaan14
[04:49] <Ryaaan14> Should have probably said that first
[04:49] <MTW> done
[04:49] <Ryaaan14> Lurker proof.
[04:50] <MTW>
[04:50] <Ryaaan14> Oh shit lmao
[04:50] <MTW> enjoy my hand writing
[04:51] <Ryaaan14> Hahahaha
[04:51] <Ryaaan14> Can I ask you a few questions?
[04:51] <MTW> go!
[04:51] <Ryaaan14> Armor
[04:51] <MTW> what about armor?
[04:51] <Ryaaan14> Is it custimizable by piece or by set
[04:52] <MTW> it is just like it is in reach
[04:52] <MTW> exactly
[04:52] <Ryaaan14> So by piece.
[04:52] <MTW> paintable only as a whole
[04:52] <MTW> yes
[04:52] <MTW> helmet/chest/etc
[04:52] <Ryaaan14> Ok so skins are whole
[04:52] <MTW> yep, i said that on twitter actually
[04:52] <Ryaaan14> How scaled are loadout/perk unlocks?
[04:53] <Ryaaan14> I know beta is beta, but ya know.
[04:53] <MTW> not well
[04:53] <MTW> you just get credit to buy whatever you want
[04:53] <MTW> some better stuff is tied to having a higher level
[04:53] <MTW> you get perks that make you deadly pretty early on
[04:53] <Ryaaan14> How do you feel about the aim assist?
[04:53] <MTW> that has never bothered me in any game, so no real opinion
[04:54] <Ryaaan14> Did you play Halo 3 and Reach?
[04:54] <MTW> yes
[04:54] <Ryaaan14> Which does the movement/aiming feel closer to?
[04:54] <MTW> good question.
[04:54] <MTW> if halo 3 had jet packs.
[04:54] <Ryaaan14> Ok
[04:54] <Ryaaan14> About that
[04:55] <Ryaaan14> How does the "jet booster" play?
[04:55] <MTW> it just shoots you horizonal. very weird.
[04:55] <MTW> regular jet pack is still in though
[04:55] <MTW> the armor ability menu scrolls futher than you guys have seen
[04:55] <MTW> one last item is on that screen
[04:55] <MTW> jet pack.
[04:55] <Ryaaan14> So boost and jetback are separate things?
[04:55] <Ryaaan14> *jetpack
[04:55] <MTW> yes.
[04:56] <MTW> jet pack is an armor ability
[04:56] <MTW> but you unlock it late
[04:56] <Ryaaan14> What is boost then?
[04:56] <MTW> thruster unlocks earlyish
[04:56] <Ryaaan14> A perk?
[04:56] <MTW> for a second i thought that wasn't an armor ability, had to check. it is one as well.
[04:56] <Ryaaan14> Ok so you can get a nerfec jetpack earlier
[04:56] <Ryaaan14> *nerfed
[04:56] <MTW> not so nerfed, but yes.
[04:57] <Ryaaan14> Ok, bloom
[04:57] <Ryaaan14> Does it exist
[04:57] <MTW> not really, no.
[04:57] <MTW> nothing like reach
[04:57] <MTW> shots go where you point.
[04:57] <Ryaaan14> So bloom is ONLY visual?
[04:57] <Ryaaan14> Just to time shots
[04:58] <MTW> that appears to be it, yes. keep in mind I am not a halo expert. i just know i hated how rifles worked in reach, and this is much better.
[04:58] <Ryaaan14> Good to know
[04:58] <Ryaaan14> Do you know anything about player tags?
[04:59] <Ryaaan14> Like the 4 character title we had
[04:59] <MTW> same as before
[04:59] <MTW> 4 character tag
[04:59] <Ryaaan14> Ok
[04:59] <Ryaaan14> How does the Sniper feel?
[04:59] <FyreWulff> all i want to know is
[04:59] <MTW> fucking great.
[04:59] <MTW> like halo 1
[04:59] <FyreWulff> does the game have Legacy sticks
[04:59] <Ryaaan14> lmao here we go
[04:59] <MTW> checking
[05:00] <MTW> yep!
[05:00] <FyreWulff> hooray
[05:00] <MTW> legacy/legacy southpaw is in
[05:00] <FyreWulff> we're good then
[05:00] <FyreWulff> don't give two shits about multi
[05:00] <FyreWulff> so i at least know i can still play campaign
[05:00] <FyreWulff> :3
[05:00] <Ryaaan14> On that note, recon control sceme?
[05:00] <Ryaaan14> *scheme?
[05:01] <MTW> it's in.
[05:01] <Ryaaan14> Good.
[05:01] <Ryaaan14> Can you list the perks?
[05:01] <MTW> that's a looong fucking list
[05:01] <Ryaaan14> I've got time.
[05:01] <MTW> i'd rather not transcribe that much shit, not now anyway
[05:01] <MTW> ask again later
[05:01] <MTW> you have them all anyway it hink
[05:02] <MTW> didn't that italian site leak those?

Said it in the chat but -
"Personally I think I'd hold on to it until after the conference, because I believe in controlled hype. But most would probably pop it up. Getting people all in a tizzy over MP stuff could easily dampen their perspective on the first 10 minutes."

I thought we were only getting Campaign stuff at the conference/

Is FUD going to be updated with E3 Halo stuff as it is happening? Most gaming sites are blocked for me at work which sucks.

I'm pretty sure it will be. Dani does an excellent job of keeping that thing up to date. I always use it for events like this and he keeps it more current than any other site I've found.
