Happy page 343, everyone!
I always seem to be a sucker for these. I actually thought it was pretty good.Sikamikanico said:Check it out if you want to read the whole thing - Slideshow here. I found it sitting on my harddrive from back in 2007. Nice.

Considering how we won't reach (!) page 343 no the 100 posts per page format (we'll get to 20,000 posts before then), this may as well be page 343.Hypertrooper said:ha. Junior are using 50post per page. You should use 100post per page, then you would become a member.

Thanks man. I'd love to do a new one in Reach, but I just don't have the time.

Whoo page 343.
I agree fully, that map is a lot of fun to vehicle around on, so its a shame that vehicles are so under supported. Another hog next to the rocket hog would be nice, a ghost somewhere would be awesome aswell. Currently the map plays like every other infantry map. We still havent got a 'Lost Platoon' type map in Reach. "Whine Whine Moan Moan" is probably what anyone is thinking, but this is something that people have been asking for since launch, and its crazy that even though in the vidoc 343 acknowledged that people wanted more vehicle maps that they dropped the ball there. I just dont understand it.
On a sidenote Im still hoping for a map that has Banshee spawns on it. It would be unbalanced as hell but would be a huge amount of fun.

Maybe even for storyboarding.Blue Ninja said:Speaking Noble Team, HBO's Leviathan put up three more pages from his amazing "A Fistful of Arrows"-comic. That final panel is amazing. So amazing, even, I made an avatar of it. If anyone wants to use it, be my guest.
Does he have a regular interval he posts these in?

Eh, I like 50. Makes it easier to read on my phone, loading less images.

No, he posts some when he's done. His next batch will apparently have a few more images.A27 Tawpgun said:
Something is always "Not Halo" until devs/players find they don't want to do without it.Deputy Moonman said:
See: Elites in multiplayer, Firefight, Jetpacks (believe!), etc.
Call me cynical, but if it does come out, I'm half-expecting the trend to continue: a Halo Editing Kit with less exposed features and functionality, and more aggravating ways to gimp the online experience. Okay, so MS kinda learned on that last point, but I can't help but wonder if they'll goof just as bad with a H3 port.wwm0nkey said:
So anyone want to guess when they will announce Halo 3 PC? Really do hope they get a good devloper this time around and make it a GOOD port unlike Halo 2 Vista which requires you to use a controller because KB+M support sucks. Oh also custom resolution and more than 8x AA and actually have AF support as well.

Operation Chastity is having a Halo: reach tournament that will end on the release of the trailer for Operation Chastity on June 18th

Bitch Bitch Moan Moan Time:
Its really currently too easy on Highlands for people to just camp they're base waiting for the action to come to them. These bases are so blocked off that you literally need to walk into the snipers lines of sights to get any combat. The big rock formation on the red ream base and the big green tower on the blue team base really act like big barriers, which you have to pass to meet people a lot of the time. Doing so usually puts you up against like 5 people who are all able to see you as soon as you enter the area.
This is pretty frustrating because the centre of the map would be a great area for combat, hell even both sides of the map provide a lot of fun when people use them, but right now theres a real lack of action going on. Going through the teleporters to either side is a gamble becaue its unlikely anyone will be around there and you will be stuck 'in the middle of nowhere' The same problem occurs on Hemmorage to an extent and it sucks that to get any action you have to do suicide runs across such a big map.
On Halo 3 it was a lot easier to flush out campers and spot snipers - people turtled and the maps wernt perfect but you could overcome it, but with Reach this turtling really hurts the gameplay.

Use ckohler's GAF webapp if you aren't already, it makes it much easier. You can turn off image loading by default and avatars.O D I N said:

Too difficult for Al to shoot down. Same reason you can't board the banshee on Holdout.Tunavi said:

Would it be possible to take the announcers sound clips and make an app? I'd love to make a simple countdown timer with the way he says things like "10 seconds remaining".

I've played it 2x. I hope I never play it again. I also absolutely love driving a hog in normal MP games.Crucio said:
