Yeah, like was stated before, so long as that shit is spoiler tagged. I won't be getting to that novel for some time.
I have R.A Salvatore books to catch up on, and the new clancy book to digest before getting to it.
My copy of Cryptum arrived today, I'll be starting it later tonight. I had to buy it from an Amazon UK seller though, they said it would've taken up to a month otherwise :/ how's everyone finding it so far?
The climb from Colonel to Grade 1 is taking long enough for me, when I eventually hit Grade 3 the 220k to Brigadier will seem like forever!

Nah, it's not that bad yet. My climb is now:MrBig said:
Brigadier Grade 1 - 120k
Brigadier Grade 2 - 120k
Brigadier Grade 3 - 120k
General - 240k
General Grade 1 - 200k
General Grade 2 - 150k
General Grade 3 - 150k
General Grade 4 - 150k
From the b.net FAQ.
I'll clear each of those in about one week, except for the climb to General and General Grade 1, which will likely be a 2-week affair, depending on the Challenges.
After that, into the unknown (to me). I haven't followed where it goes from there, yet. I know the last several ranks are a few million cR apart.
For some reason I really wanted to hit Brigadier, I'm not sure why.
Odd, I guess I never checked what the requirement was after I passed G1. Wonder why tehy made the first hump different when they've always been the same.
It may have been because Brigadier is the rank that unlocks everything besides security helmet. Also it has the best icon
e: here's all the ranks http://www.halopedian.com/Rank_(Halo:_Reach)
Daily credit cap is now 120k? I'm sitting at like 55k for today and I was getting worried

I just got a new slim 360 and Halo reach and I always thought that reload was the RB and melee was the X button. Is there any way to switch these two in the settings? They have a bunch of preloaded settings with nicknames like Lefty, Recon, etc but I couldn't find a way to pick and choose which individual buttons to remap. It's annoying that they changed this.
Edit: And also what's with the assassinations? How do you do them? It seems dumb because while you're wasting time killing someone slowly then another guy can just kill you.

Yeah I was referring to Halo 3 when I said the controls used to be reload on LB and melee on X. I guess there's no way to change it then. I'm getting used to it but it's annoying. I'll just pick up a cheap copy of ODST to go back to the old controls.

You will get it if you choose Recon as a control-setting.Synth_floyd said:

Hmm, my mistake. I guess it has been a while since I played Halo 3. I looked at the manual for Halo 3 online and melee was B. Alright I'll just switch to recon controls.
Also, how do assassinations work and what's the point if it leaves you vulnerable for a few seconds to do the same thing a simple melee would?

Luckily ive got all the armour I want, so im out of the ranking race but just as feedback I think the Reach system is the least rewarding/ enticing system out of all the games ive played recently.
With other games that use the exp system, the exp between ranks is just close enough to give a sense of "just one more game". With Reach, early on you lose that. The fact that you have 3 grades of each rank just makes it worse.
Im so glad Reach doesnt give the higher ranks things like better weapons, but thats a big draw of other games which use a exp system. With Assassins Creed Brotherhood I get a new perk, I want to try it out, and after a few games trying it out im probably just 1 or 2 games away from ranking up again, its a vicious cycle! I guess the point im making is, this system just isnt really ever going to work with Halo.
I guess Reach's system can be considered as less of a short term grind and more of a long term reward for commited fans which is cool - on another related note, those challenges still suck. :lol
EDIT: Actually ive always found it sort of annoying how little player ability plays into the system, most Cr comes from game complete, so it seems as though doing really well isnt actually rewarded, I personally just want to do well for the sake of the game, but it would be nice to be rewarded for it considering the game has a ranking system. I also think its irritating how theres a rich get richer syndrome, people shouldnt earn more for the same performance simply because they are higher ranked.

I was wondering the same thing. I'm already online if people wanna get some customs rolling.MrBig said:

Too tired for customs personally, but it is early (ha!) yet, so I'm sure some group will form at some point later.

Start with two raised platforms on either end of the map. Those are your bases. Put a large, nonsensical structure in the middle. Put sniper rifles everywhere and pay no attention to spawning or player movement. Connect the bases and central structure with nonsensical platforms and bridges. Congratulations! Your map just made it into Community Slayer!
I kid I kid. I'm liking Community Slayer, just not Capacitor and Elevation.
Edit: This avatar is making me snarky!

IGN boards splintered off and a lot of guys I know made a new board, I won't say it here because I don't want to advertise another board.
Anyway, I haven't played with many of them in a while, or some of them at all. Plus they aren't doing only customs, we we are doing a mix of customs and BTB MM, been incredibly fun so far, but now I got Wifetaculared so I have to go, and come back later.
Either way, donging on kids is fun with friends.
I still love you GAF, especially you Tashi*

You can have mine that I've built so far. It's in a good neighborhood, has a nice ocean view, and comes with two beam emitters (one not working), and another Forerunner ship that teleported into the side of a cliff, just like Breakpoint!
But seriously, I have no idea what I'm doing with it when it comes to Invasion only spawns/weapons, and regular CTF/Bomb/Slayer items. :s

Oh a little something that some of you may enjoy, yeah, it's the reward for that FF competition, but you can all get one free.
This isn't against TOS is it? If it is let me know and I'll remove it.

Not sure why, but glad you could use it!
I'm pretty sure it's allowed in the ToS too, so you're good there. There have been plenty "hey get this free here!" threads with much larger payoffs (like games or XBL month codes for free) with their own threads, so this should be fine.Alienshogun said:Not sure why, but glad you could use it!
