Hey now, I have mellowed out. Three years and counting of being a junior member, I guess I fall under the radar.

Halo |OT9| One Final Effort Is All That Remains

I never really understood why camping the base was considered a taboo issue. There is clearly one spot on the map to defend, what's wrong with actually defending that spot? As annoying as it can be it's a legitimate strategy.
In my opinion good 2 flag CTF and neutral assault clear up this issue as you're often out and about on the map either assisting with flag cap, actively returning or stopping the enemy, or trying to figure out where the hell the bomb carrier is hiding/sneaking/lurking.

In that IGN Flood gameplay, Kevin Franklin said they put Active Camo into Flood to assist campers, can only assume that is why it is in loadouts as well.
So I doubt they'd do something like that to stop campers...
Last night when I got to that point, I was about half a second from posting how much I loved that line. Tongue-in-cheek things like that are awesome.
I like you.
Mostly because of your beard 
Also, who here has a level 50 in Borderlands? Trying to get Vermivorous the Invincible to spawn might be the worse experience in that game. So frustrating.

Never forget fighting Crystallisks.
I could never kill those things.

Yep, I'm about ready to just wait for someone to dupe me the head that it drops. I haven't even gotten it to spawn once, the two layers of chance here working against me are infuriating.
Melee their legs.
Honestly only liked about two songs :\
Also, the announcer calls out every 1 second you hold the hill.
"Hill HELD." "Hill HELD." "Hill DOMINATION." "Hill SASSINATION"
Hill King +10, Hill King +10, Hill King +10, Hill Emperor +10
I for one welcome the ability to assassinate people with the hill.
Those things are like extremely easy to kill in BL2.
I got the Siren headpiece he drops last night. So awesome!
Anyone know what the floodsassination looks like?
I admit, i'm getting tired of all this sassy sassination stuttering. Shufferin Shuckatash

Did anyone notice this on the side of the IGN article thing about Abandon?

Why is Ravine listed under the regular maps? It shouldn't be and there should be 2 "Unkown Multiplayer maps" on the list... I really hope IGN screwed up.

What Siren headpiece? Any cool ones?
I found it quite disappointing actually. Matt sounds like he's doing a bad Freddie Mercury impersonation at times. I think I'll stick with their older albums.

Cat ears for Maya, it's the last one I need to get.

Why are our non-remake Forerunner maps names from the Soundtrack? Are we going to get a map called Faithless or Ascendancy?
Also made me realize it'd be a cool distinction to have The indicate a forge environment.
The Ravine, The Warehouse, The Sandbox,
The hell? Did they add her pubes onto the texture?

There are so many small teases. I like it.
"Do you believe in any gods?" "No, but I'm prepared to be persuaded if one should appear."
"The Ravine is a forge map that has huge verticality and a large playable area over the sea. It features a large forerunner structure, and a hilly plain."

Look closely bro, bottom-left. They're angular but she's a siren, they could be magic pubes or something.
Well this is just mean

Whoaaa, there's way more heads than I thought. I only have six or something.
That's the skin I'm using for my siren. I'm using a better haircut, though. Too bad the cat ears are tied to that hair.
Its one of those magic albums that gets better every listen. Didn't like it at first, now its contending with Black Holes and Revelations.

Agreed, I don't like the heads that are modifications of her default hairstyle either. Still though, do want that for completion's sake.

Am watching that IGN Abandon vid and wondering, did Halo 4 drop the idea of level area callouts?
I always appreciated those, and would think they'd be even more helpful now that the game has ordinance and semi-random item positioning.

No one ever used the ones Bungie made because a lot of them were just too long or difficult to remember. Players inevitably came up with their own and the same will happen in Halo 4.
That would great so we could actually call out death locations instead of "on my X."
^^ Also because whenever you decided to look and learn where you are at, you were dead and it wasn't showing.
Oh shit, I haven't noticed them. Are they gone? Was really hoping they'd come back with good names and show when you die so it was easier to learn them. Damn.

You got proof of that? Because that picture was in OT8 and was concept art.

Well this is just mean
I'm guessing this also means no watching films with parties, either.
Bungie's rationale for dropping it in Reach was lame. I've got two dozen regulars I play Halo with, and every last one of us used this feature in Halo 3 pretty consistently. Maybe we're just a different breed of person with radically different wants and needs from the majority of the Halo community.

It's artwork that was released with information about future War Games DLC maps.

That art work was released when they announced the map pass and they said it was concept art for one of the DLC maps.
