Is this the final of the two weeks BWU fast? It feels like it's been longer, my belly is hungry.
Yesterday's credits fell over me like rain. After playing FF doubles attack (2x score attack, in which the rocket hog actually works) I mistakenly wandered into BTB and paid the ultimate price for it. A painfully long drawn out loss due to complete team disorganization in CTF. I find it easier to push into the base to grab a flag if you do it while the opposing team is dead. Well, everybody wanted to make sure the other team had respawned and took position before wandering into the base, or better yet push in solo. Again and again. I wonder why we got shut out, though? I should've asked the 3 guys waiting at the sniper spawn on Hemorrhage staring at each other. They seemed calm.

This is the first time in years that Bungie won't announce anything (unless they do it as Bungie Aerospace). At least it won't end up like this.

That Pit remake on Tempest is really good. The way its set up on Tempest makes for a pretty nice aesthetic. The glass wall and the view through it is pretty awesome.

Invasion anyone?
Fun game today despite our squad ending up on the losing side. I was all set to clutch the victory once that tank spawned but unfortunately my teammate (apparently in an effort to man the gunner) got a bit too up close and personal with both a tank shell and a plasma blast from your wraith resulting in a betrayal and more or less the game. At least I managed to complete the "Neuroscience" challenge for the day so there's that at least. Oh and my teammates were idiots :/
A quick clip from our game today showing what happens when you get a bit too greedy after capturing a territory:
"Tanked"
And a bonus clip. As you can see I haven't had much luck with vehicles lately lol

Hey You said:
Did Living Dead get an update recently?
Because that's the only scenario where I see it deserving a Super Jackpot. Why has Classic still not gotten one? Or Team Objective?
In the same vein, I don't think Squad Slayer needs a Double Jackpot (although I haven't looked at the population numbers in a couple days.)
*grumble*
Unless Jeremiah is planning on updating Classic or TO soon and wants to save the Super Duper Jackpot for after that rolls out. But I very much doubt that.

Team Objective is getting a BTB-style overhaul in the June update, so I can see it being the target of a super jackpot after it rolls out.
Hey all, just thought I'd point this out, approximately 11 hours ago these two tweets were posted on @nobleactual. http://twitter.com/#!/nobleactual
"Am I alive?"
"Control has been yielded to the SYSTEM PERIL CORE SHUTDOWN. RESTARTING IN 48 HOURS."
On the main twitter page is says this:
"System status has been altered. Shutting down core functions. Restarting in 48 hours.
http://www.nobleactual.com/"
What does this mean? @nobleactual hasn't been used since Sept 14th 2010.
Now all of a sudden it seems something is going to happen to the Reach Dev Blog.
My theory: A rehash of the dev blog into a website to help bring Bungie's new IP into the light. OR 343i has taken ownership of the blog and twitter account to promote a new Halo.

I think the main problem with Reach's grenades is the radius, it's like no matter how far away you get, you'll still hear that whirring sound, and then you have no shields and 2 blips of health, so annoying. They also don't bounce as fluidly as the past 2 games, like when you throw one on Swordbase off the walls it's like it just impacted a sponge or something, kind of just dies right there.
Tashi, GBG is an old clan from Halo 3 (maybe before that?), they had a humpday as SBG, I played with them for a while on 3, they had quite a few 50s at the time, I can't really say how good they are now. It is looking like this tourney won't be as cut and dry as I thought it would be though. It would also appear we have a spy among us from 2o2p, lol.

Ahh, forgot about those Zombie updates. Guess I'm just displaying my biased opinion of that playlist.Hey You said:
I had already seen that Jeremiah post on Classic, I just wish it would get a Super Jackpot. There's always the remote chance it will cause a huge increase in population and, if enough players stick, the playlist could once again be deemed worthy of updates.
Still, it's good to know Team Objective will get some attention soon.
I wonder if it could use a Sword base variant that's better for CTF? I need to do more testing, but I think Glaive is certainly better than the current setup.

I couldn't find more information, so I'm just going to leave this here.
Jason Bretz, senior environment artist at Certain Affinity, had this on his LinkedIn game summary:
There's quite a few members who worked on "DC Universe" who are now at Certain Affinity, though Sony Online Entertainment and Certain Affinity are both in Austin.
But he seems to have updated his employment information to be current -- why not his game summary?

Crucio, is @nobleactual an official Bungie Twitter account? It looks like it was just tweeting from a couple different RSS feeds (with the occasional spam tweet thrown in.)
I don't think a Bungie employee posted 20,000 times as @nobleactual...
