So, I just want to be clear on how Infinity Slayer works:

-Every 5, 10, 15, etc kills you get a weapon/power drop
-You can select to get an overshield that makes you invulnerable for 5 seconds

So now I might have to watch out for sprinting sword guys that are invincible.

When he spawns OS (jesus...) there's 11 seconds of total invulnerability after picking it up. I thought that was a glitch. monkey said the huge invulnerability is still there.

11 seconds?

Gotta be kidding me.

I thought i'm an angry person but playing with you...
OTOH, maybe i just keep all that hate and anger bottled up where as you just vent it as you get angrier?

lol, it isn't good to keep anger bottled up. It should be released immediately, even if people die.

 

[Woorloog]

lol, it isn't good to keep anger bottled up. It should be released immediately, even if people die.

Yeah, it should be released ASAP but... it is kinda hard to that when you're raised to keep everything bottled up. And i'd rather channel it into something constructive rather than just lash out.
Of course video games are not a source for any anger i feel, as i said today, i simply don't care about Reach either way, i just play it.

 

[Ryaaan14]

Does the OS just provide you with the 5 seconds of invulnerability, or does it start with that and fade out? Seems kind of shitty if it only has a 5 second effect, invulnerable or not.

That was a known bug in the E3 build. It has since been taken care of.

 

[Overdoziz]

Is there any invincibility at all now? I hope not because it made battles right after your opponent or you had picked up OS incredibly silly.

 

[kylej]

That was a known bug in the E3 build. It has since been taken care of.

Can the white text in the middle of the screen be turned off in the options menu?

 

[TS x Massacre]

11 seconds?

Gotta be kidding me.

Holy shit, yeah Kyle was right ,exactly 11 seconds, wow that's insane. Even stronger than armor lock b/c you can move!

Frankie David confirmed that this is a glitch!

=) Thanks David.

 

[Fracas]

Ah, okay, good to hear.

I don't suppose you can answer whether you're invulnerable at all with OS, or how long the overshield lasts?

[VivaciousJazzy]

Is there still a smaller period of invulnerability like on the old OS?

 

[CyReN]

Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn Cast Live Now.

 

[lybertyboy]

I know this was discussed in the past as an option, but not sure where it is in the stack rank of tasks for the UI team.

 

[TS x Massacre]

Or can you still "burn" the OS by getting damaged as you pick it up?

Make it happen and I'll send you a gift basket of beer.

What is this Nexuiz game?

 

[FyreWulff]

This period always seemed a longer for other people versus when I picked it up. Jerks.

Was fun to stay near it on the Pit and wait for some unlucky person to make a run for it, pick it up, and get them with no chance of them being able to do anything about it.

Try the XBLA demo:

I know this was discussed in the past as an option, but not sure where it is in the stack rank of tasks for the UI team.

So I assume it goes like this for the UI team?

1. Fix Medals
2. Fix Medals
3. Fix Medals
...

99. Option to turn off text

Spoiler

I don't mind the medals or the custom games lobby.

Ha ha, actually the medals have already changed since the E3 build.

Yeah, I'm actually fine with a lot of this as long as the gameplay is solid and the aesthetics/flow of the maps are well done.

Also, praying for a phenomenal netcode.

And as long as it's easy enough to navigate, i'm okay with it, I'll be spending most the time IN the game not the lobby =)

Ha ha, actually the medals have already changed since the E3 build.

Still good news nonetheless

 

[Overdoziz]

It's a Quake-esque game on consoles, really fun. Sadly not many people play it anymore. For 200msp it's definitely worth it, for 800 I don't know.

I hope its a glitch, please

Scroll up

Also, quick question for you David...

How old would you say the E3 build is at this point? As in, how long ago was it locked if you can remember? I'm sure it's been a crunching shitstorm with all the events/game coming out in < 4 months

 

[Vire]

Ha ha, actually the medals have already changed since the E3 build.

BOOOO....

SUCCUMBING TO THE HATERS ON GAF.

343, what happened to artistic integrity.

(lol okay, I hope the new ones retain the holographic feel)

I'll give the demo a try.

And... fuck, is it 4AM already?
Still not wanting to sleep. Sure, i'm tired and there's nothing interesting going on here but...

You're mixing up 343i and Bioware.

EDIT also, we've filled almost half of the thread in just 7 days?

I didn't mind them honestly, something different. Can't wait to see what's up next.

That particular pass was always going to be placeholder. I never understood the hate myself. I don't want anything to distract me from taking in the carnage I reign upon my opponents. How am I supposed to know I'm a master donger if I can't pour over every pixel of my dead enemy as they ragdoll to the ground?

 

[Franklinator]

Would a visit from my friend Mr. Lincoln make removing the text jump to the top of said stack?

 

[wwm0nkey]

EDIT: Hold on, how do you do the email thing to hide stuff?

I'll throw in a Halo 5 beta key.

Why isn't this man writing dialogue for Halo 4?

True poetry.

 

[Franklinator]

Ok so here are some Halo 4 Master Chief Avatar armor codes up for grabs.

Quote to reveal!







Will have more tomorrow

lol, you didn't put anything in the email tags

 

[Fracas]

EDIT: Hold on, how do you do the email thing to hide stuff?

I'd like it! lol

 

[Vire]

EDIT: Hold on, how do you do the email thing to hide stuff?

No need to do the e-mail trick, just PM it over my way.

 

[wwm0nkey]

lol, you didn't put anything in the email tags

I did but it was still showing them

 

[Woorloog]

You hide in the tag, not beetween tags.

 

[Fracas]

quote my post, it'll show how

 

[Franklinator]

EDIT: Hold on, how do you do the email thing to hide stuff?

Like this (quote to see)

[Overdoziz]

Random question David, did you guys ever consider adding something like this:

Now that would be logical evolution if I ever saw it.

Yep, something like that would be great provided it doesn't take up too much space.

 

[wwm0nkey]

Bumper jumper fixed, medals changed, and OS invincibility was an E3 build bug? Awesome. Small details like these make a huge difference.

 

[Vire]

Ok here we go

Darn, that went fast.

Last one was taken.

 

[neoism]
