Anyone on? Too lazy to check bungie.net but I want to play Reach with some folks.

I hate playing MM alone. My trueskill is lulzy and I hate talking on mic with randoms since I'm a woman.

Anyway for those who don't have my tag it's: "i devolution i".

Eh, if you want we can just do party chat. Don't worry, I'm not a creeper, I'm 30 and married with a kid, I feel bad for women on XBL because of what you just said, and because people instantly turn creepy when they find out a woman is in game.

Zayne you getting on?

Team and Party was literally the best thing to ever happen for me, use that shit all of the time now.

Yeah I've gotten the creepers, the misogynists, and little kids who actually use the "c" word at me. It's ridiculous.

I'm always creepy. It's part of my "charm".

And no, probably not getting on.

Hey guys, what is the general (if any) trend for halo and map pack pricing? Do they go free or go on sale routinely? I want the noble map pack but don't want to drop 10 bucks on 3 maps -_-

Heard that.

I don't play alone cause I'll go up against a coordinated pro group, and my random team mates will try to use ARs no matter what range it is.

Map packs continue to sell months and years after release, so despite the Halo 2 maps and the first Halo 3 DLC going free, that trend has stopped. Special sales are unlikely this year or the next.

What might happen; the map pack may get a discount of a few hundred points.... in a year or two's time. It is also possible that we'll see a disc at retail with multiple (all?) potential future and current DLC on it. That disc, if it happens, won't be free.

In short, pay now or pay later. Otherwise you'll be waiting years to get them at a slightly lower price. If you buy them now, you'll get more use out of them for a longer period of time, thus increasing the potential "value" (playtime) you get from your purchase.

The less map packs you buy, at least with past Halos, the more you get locked out of games as well from what I recall, won't feel bad I'm totally wrong about this. Eventually the "dlc" now becomes integrated into the normal playlists. Might as well get them now and play them while the population of the game is high too.

I mean, I like going in with a party of 4 and matching a party of 4. The competition is the best like that. If I could run 4's and match a party of 4 everytime, I would.

What I meant was when I played in h2, if you didn't have the maps, you weren't even allowed in the playlist. I guess in Reach they aren't being that mean about it.

Halo 2 maps went free so there was no reason you couldn't have them.

Reach isn't forcing players to have them in order to play, which they did for Halo 3.

No they weren't. Not at first. If you didn't get them right away you were locked out of playlists. So my point was, he should get them while there are tons of people currently playing. But Reach is a bit different, like Breakpoint is in invasion but everyone, even those without DLC, can get in that playlist.

You honestly don't sound like a 12 year old boy :lol I could tell instantly that you were a woman at least.

But yeah, I always figured party chat was a godsend to females on Halo. Was almost impossible to find a decent group on H2 when playing with a mic'd female. Damn anonymous punks.

My favorite is still "GO MAKE ME A SANDWICH."

My name is unisex for that very reason though. I used to be in an all girl's gaming clan so my name had the clan tag in it but I just wanted to play Halo, not be involved in drama. Drama found me anyway though, funny how that happens. I said "f that" and left. This was years ago though.
