I took a drawing class at the community college in my hometown. I made an A because I flirted with the art teacher.MrBig said:

^That Hobbit video was amazing, god I cant wait for that movie.
Interesting if it was seen in the armoury. I figured if it were something, it had to do with 343. It would be pretty awesome if Bungie did find a way to hide armour in the code to be unlocked after release that people didn't see or know about.

Heh. We've been going through threads as I've been expecting. I expect we'll get to OT6 by time Anniversary rolls around.GhaleonEB said:

Well. here's the thread if anyone was interested:

EDIT: Apparently the image has been there for 24 hours too? How long does it usually take for that thing to update?

I just hope it doesn't become the new Hayabusa. Reach has avoided that problem thus far.
On the other hand, Ice Cream Cone Head was really easy to spot and see for sniping.
edit: in retrospect, I now sometimes wonder why the Katana wasn't the "Recon" of Halo 3, instead of the helmet. It was a lot more obvious.

I liked to call people with both the Katana on their back and a Sniper Rifle "helicopters"

That reminded me of a really old shop I did.
Isn't that my Halo 3 Spartan? I remember taking a photo just like that (same armor, same armor color, same map, same pose) with Eazy because we were taking photos for urk to use for GAF's Bungie Favorites Bnet post.
I could be wrong, though.
Could very well be. I Googled Recon and chose one of the better ones. I think the origin of it was someone on bungie.net said they wanted a frozen helmet instead of a flaming helmet. I delivered.Domino Theory said:Isn't that my Halo 3 Spartan?

y u no on when I'm on? Played some not fun games in Rumble Pit and got wrecked in Squad Slayer playing with Risen's friends... We got matched up with an insane team twice in a row. And our team wasn't working together at all.
Will you guys be on tomorrow morning? I'm free until 4:30 EST.kylej said:
I still need to wash away all the Bungie Day Armor Lock with BK Blood.
When I wrote my speculation piece about the next Firefight map, one of the things I hoped for was no crates. I had two things in mind when I said that; one was the abundance of crates cluttering up Glacier.
The other was this crate on Unearthed, which I swear is magnetic or something. I get stuck down there rather often, as do Covenant.

On that note, tomorrow my wife and kids are leaving to visit family for over a week. I'll have a wee bit more playtime.Devin Olsen said:

I was at a concert for Vancouvers 125th birthday (mother mother is amazing). So I didn't have a chance to play much today but I'll be on first thing tomorrow morning and I'm free pretty much all day.

I got an idea for the Title Update,
Tie the loopy loops the Banshee does to its booster so it can only do TWO. Fuck its so overpowered!

This times 1,000. Next to bloom, this is my biggest complaint with Reach.xxjuicesxx said:
The Banshee uses its booster when it flips and rolls. Why isn't that taking away from the energy reserves?

Hitmonchan107 said:
I like bloom, but I do hope they fix the banshee. I don't play much BTB though.
What I'd really like to see addressed are spawns, weapon timers, and max weapon count.
I've either had bad spawns, my teammates have, or teams spawn right in front of me. It happens so much lately, and its so frustrating. Every map needs better spawns and safe zones or whatever. Spawning a member or more of each team at the same time at opposite sides of bottom hallway on Countdown actually is
Weapon timers and max on map... man they suck right now. Boardwalk, Asylum, and Countdown are the worst. My team got owned in Squad the other day because the other team controlled 3 snipers the whole time. 3! Then today in TS I had a sniper with over 15 rounds and a shotgun with 28. Well, my teammate also had an overly full shotgun and so did the other team. Shortly after noticing this, it turns out that the other team then grabbed an additional snipers even though I had the rounds from both snipers. How does this happen? This was without black screen, I can't imagine if one had happened. It'd be like Oprah: "A power weapon for you, and you, and you!! We all get power weapons!".
As for timers, I think they come back way too damn fast. Like Ram was saying the other day, snipes are never not in play on Asylum (or Boardwalk and others for that matter). Snipes could do with doubling (or 1.5x) of timers IMO. Anchor 9 could use a doubling on the time for rockets.
Good grief, hold me.

Yes but senador most of that stuff isn't changing the gameplay. Thats all playlist setting changes. That stuff won't be fixed until I'm hired.
I want to see the Banshee weakened as its way too strong at the moment. I'd like to see the banshee bomb radius reduced too if thats possible, right now you barely have to be close to get a kill.

It seems that whenever an enemy gets in the Banshee, they're huge bullet sponges, and their fuel rod shots are overpowered. When I get in the Banshee, 3 shots with a DMR can take me down, and my fuel rod shots do as much damage as a pea shooter.
xxjuicesxx said:
True. I should have prefaced by saying I hope 343i attends to those things via playlist management. Have you applied yet? You may have missed my introductory post, but I am all in favor of juiceska, or juiceamiah, or juicesonfire or whatever.

Didn't mean to open that can of worms. Sorry. :^)Voltron64 said:
Yeah, I have no idea why the banshee tricks didn't use the boost reserve. I don't have much hope for that being changed because they've yet to actually change vehicles in a TU, they just add new ones to the .maps (see also: Transport Falcon)
I guess in theory they could either bring back the H3 Banshee model and call it a "Skirmish Banshee" or something that has a slower fuel rod and it's tricks use the energy meter.
It'd be neat if we could get Space Banshees in a multiplayer map.
At least it's finally possible to do the full range of banshee tricks with Legacy sticks in Reach. For years I've been stuck only being able to backflip since Halo 2. Reach finally lets me barrel roll. It's like the vehicle has completely changed for me :lol
Banshees go down fast though, if you just teamshoot them with DMRs. I think people have been trained by Halo 2 and 3 too much where the BR/Pistol was pretty much useless against the banshee. DMR/Pistol eats them up now.

Just watched that earlier. I hope Halo 4 is AMAZING, but nothing in 2012 will top the gaming experience for me that Infinite will provide.
Anyone hating on Bioshock 1 is straight trolling lol. At the very least, if you hate on Bioshock 1, you hate narrative in games, which is sad. In my opinion, the first Bioshock is the best single player experience of this generation, and by a country mile.
Also, you peps see the new Hobbit production video? HAWT <3
I see comparing Halo 4 to Bioshock as somewhat silly. They'll both be good games, and serve completely different playstyles and experiences. Although I still believe there should still be 3 year gaps between mainline Halo titles - knowing that it seems MS wants them every two years now, why should I buy DLC if the userbase is going to have moved on in a year? It's the same reason I've never bought CoD DLC.
Unless they want to actually do something innovative like make Halo 4 / 5 / 6 an FPS "platform" like Rock Band where we can export maps from Halo 4 and use it's DLC in 5 and 6.

I'll buy COD DLC any day of the week because it actually has good implementation. DLC implementation in Halo is horrible, and doesn't make buying DLC worth it. I'll be taking a stand against Halo 4 DLC unless there is good implementation.
