DMR is supposedly less accurate (or harder to hit with) at close range, so I guess BR is good for when you know you'll be fighting up close. But we'll see, I guess.
I think I'm gonna buy that red shirt. I really hope these aren't Bungie Day exclusive. If it turns out that whatever that symbol ends up representing sucks, I don't want to be stuck with a shirt for something I hate.
Could just not wear it?

You are right. The Spider Man movie rights belong to Sony Pictures. X-Men to 20th Century Fox and the other Marvel heroes to Disney. If the movie companies do not collaborate together, you won't see q crossover.
Btw the amazing spider-man was good.

anyone playing reach? I might get on for a little bit before bed.
I just played the worst match of Team Doubles on Reach earlier.
I mean... is it REALLY that hard to remove Uncaged from Reach entirely?!
EDIT: Okay, yep. I'm never going into Team Doubles ever again. The only way to win is to rush to power weapons, camp, and wait the match out.

Oh, it's Bungie day. Cool.
I'd love that scout book. Shipping it here would probably cost an arm and a leg, though.

That rings true for most of Reach. And it's a result of a constant, gradual nerfing of the precision weapons over time with each new Halo game. Makes it so that power weapons are too powerful, which, in turn, encourages less aggressive and admirable play styles. For some reason Bungie kept increasing the gap in power between power weapons and regular weapons, while at the same time flooding the game with more power weapons than before. Doesn't really make any sense. The sandbox is a mess.
Cursed Lemon alluded to this in one of his online rants how when the other team has power weapons there is absolutely no incentive to attack or even think about attacking. Because the sandbox is massively imbalanced. The developers have created a game that's all about retreating, hiding, whoring power weapons, and being a bitch. And I'm not even sure where the devs have been coming up with this idea that anything ever needed to be nerfed, or that the game ever needed to be slowed down. It's mind boggling and silly.
It's killing the pace of Halo and making Halo a lot less exciting to play and watch. Just look at MLG's lack of interest in Halo now. And I totally don't blame them. I have no idea what is going on in the Halo Dev Mansion. BEES!!!!
And now I've done my own rant. Woot!

Not what I heard. If your good enough the DMR is more versatile than the BR even a close range.
They BR really needs to be a 4shot. Same similar balance as Anniversary Magnum v DMR

Blah, on to the ER I go.
Do ERs/hospitals usually allow laptops/have wifi? Given my health history I see them keeping me for a while

I think I was 12 or 13, and I was introduced to Halo by my mate. It was my first console FPS and I remember only playing co-op campaign and getting stuck on the level the silent cartographer for a good few days. (We were out on the beach and had no idea where to go.)
For how long have you been reading HaloGAF?
For about 7 months now. It has been my main source of Halo information.
Whats your absolute favorite Halo campaign? And your favorite multiplayer? (youre not allowed to pick Halo: Combat Evolved for any of the two)
Halo 3 for both.
Highest Halo 3 level and which playlist.
46 in Snipers, Team Slayer, Doubles.

Now feel free to introduce yourself and/or share anything you want so we get to know you better, some of us would enjoy reading it. (optional)
I am currently in my fourth and final year at University in Dunedin, New Zealand finishing a Bachelor of Commerce Majoring in Tourism. I am an avid forger, and a big fan of competitive Halo. However I mostly play social games with my mates for fun. I would love to attend a Halo MLG tournament one day; I might get the chance next year if everything goes to plan. I play Basketball for my University and I used to play a lot of rugby and golf. Thats about it, Im finally glad that my waiting period to get onto Neogaf is over and I cant wait till Halo 4 comes out.

It really depends on which station you will be.
I was allowed to have a Laptop and a mobile phone beside me. Maybe somebody who lives near to you should clearify it for you. You can also say that you will need to do your job or homework, this works every time.

About twenty minutes if I'm reading my notes correctly.
Thanks. Didn't even know they were streaming the panel.
Wasn't there a world record Floodgate pacifist LASO run? I barely remember it. I think it was featured on Bungie.net

Oh yeah, for those on my team (kylej) it seems I will not be available today..at least not for a while..in ER currently, waiting for results of chest xray. Sorry!
I think I did Floodgate on LSASO in about 4minutes as my fastest. But that's speed running and not enjoying the campaign. I loved Halo 3 how it splits the Flood levels in small manageable chunks.
(With the exception of Cortana)

First thing I thought of when you said chest xray was the facehuggers from aliens, hope one of those doesn't show up on the scan! All jokes aside though I hope your ok?
As far as Bungie day goes, that blurb on the site made me laugh, after Reach you wont be kicking anyone's ass lol. I am curious on what that picture at the bottom alludes to, and I wonder if anyone has redeemed they're code yet? Would be interesting to know what happens.
