It's easy to have the bandwidth for that when you have 5 people playing the game online.

Well of course. I wasn't trying to imply anything else. I only posted that because CS: GO is being made with Valve, and TF2's a Valve game. The only reason why I remember TF2 has a spectator mode is because people in this were talking about a spectator mode, and I went online because I was curious about the state of TF2 on the 360. I was scrolling through the menus and said to myself, "Oh. Hey a spectator mode."

I must've not used it a lot because I forgot it was there.

Prediction for the news today:

It's nearly 6:00 PM my time (EST), which means it's only 3:00 PM 343i time. My guess is they'll release whatever news/video/bulletin/steak as they're walking out of the door at 5:00.

So not for another two hours. Hope it comes before then.

BELI343.

Question is when will they be available to do some damage control on here? You know if it shows anything new the majority of us will freak out about it.

We wouldn't want anyone like THIS playing our game now would we...


What are you really trying to say by making that statement?

So not only does 343 hate spectator mode, they also actively discourage handicapped gamers from playing Halo also.


Dude, to far, chill a bit

That sounds like a problem for tomorrow.

Although Frankles and jEllis will likely stick around tonight to confirm/clarify things (if they do announce anything new), and I'd expect Ms. sTroll and the Nordic Dragonslayer (Kiki) to lurk on Twitter.

I thought that post was sarcastic enough for most to pick up on it.

I'm sorry, I'll dumb it down a notch.

Very few people, if any, are leaving working a 5 in a video game studio that's a month away from finishing their game.

Josh Holmes tweeted about leaving work at about 10:30 PM last night.

It showed up again? Shouldn't someone like.. take that out of the pile that it selects from?

Or are they not able to do that?

Naw, its in every map file, and the game randomizes it. They cant really "take it out". Pretty sure there is a challenge that is impossible Bungie put it that shows up every once in awhile. Forgot what it was though...
 
All this talk of Gamefuel also reminded me of this:

Do people not like to be surprised anymore? Serious question. I kind of don't want to be given everything 3 months in advance because that kind of ruins the experience for me.

Nah, I certainly want surprises, but I would like a lot more detail about the things that we do sort of know about already. Ghaleon put it better than me already, so Ill leave my post off here.

Yeah it was there this morning for 1 cR. Not sure if they can remove it from rotation, but they pulled the assist challenges for a long time. Now it's back... : /

Been busy the past few days, so much so that right now I've been up for 25 hours straight. Finally have a chance to sleep, but I'm afraid as soon as I do, today's info is going to drop. Such a silly thing to keep myself up for, but it's fun being there as it happens.

Anyone else have the new dashboard beta and noticing massive lag and NAT changes? I can't even play any L4D2 matches as it gives me "gamertag not found" errors when it tries to load a map. In Reach I have seen noticeable lag ever since updating to the beta dashboard... all so I can have more squares on my home screen...

I don't think that is remotely possible. How could updated software for the dashboard affect Reach's matchmaking systems?
I like surprises. I enjoy the very little I read and no about campaign and await the few times I play it.

MP I don't care to have stuff thats unknown to me. Rather see everything MP has ahead of time.

Yeah beating the drum of most people here, but I'm the same. I'd like to just see enough campaign to get me excited about it (already seen that at E3), but MP can have the lid blown off. The overwhelming majority of my playtime with the game of the next couple of years will be War Games matchmaking, so it's nice to know what I've investing in.

Since 343 denied any future development of Halo 2 Anniversary. How about a sequel of Halo Wars 2? Maybe not by 343 but by another passionate dev. similar to Ensemble Studios? It is and was a good underrated spin off of FPS Halo.

Wait what is this nonsense. 343 Just crushed the Rumour that H2A was being actively developed right? Not that it would never be made. H:CEA was did fantastic job at making CE fresh for a new generation and its been a pretty big wish of mine to get H2:A made.

Besides, they need to fill the quota of having a Halo game every year.
 
Custom buttons would allow for a BXR to magically appear in the coding of the game.

Bigshow and I fully understand this.

We wouldn't want anyone like THIS playing our game now would we...
Thanks for linking to that vid. I've always been an advocate of fully customizable controls, but I never really thought about it from that perspective. I signed the petition, for all the good that will do.

343 pls

I have the beta, and everything is fine with me.
