I did not make it haha:

Halcylon now works for 343 because of incredible work like that.

+1.

Return assists to the Reach Beta settings.. this would be a cherry on top of the icing on the cake.

That would be awesome.

Really? I knew he did some contract work at Bungie or something. That is really cool that he works there now.

 

[BigShow36]

Move fast and jump higher are user definable settings already.

Yes, but moving faster makes the already painfully slow strafe even slower, which renders faster movement nearly worthless for any realistic application. Strafe speed (movement acceleration) is actually more important than movement speed from a balance perspective. Can we control movement acceleration now, or is movement acceleration now proportional to movement speed? If not, the TU's other features (bloom, bleedthrough) are going to be less impactful and beneficial than they otherwise would be.

haha, aside from me thinking the iPhone is superior, I just know that Hyper bitches about his phone all the time.

he's an easy target.

Well I can't help it if Hyper is a crybaby lol.

Dat nade tossing.

I'll be honest, I literally laughed at those two nades thrown.

 

[Gabotron ES]

Same here bro

 

[Tunavi]

I should have gone to halofest...

 

[Steelyuhas]

I should have gone to halofest...

Yeah I'm pretty disappointed that I'm not going. I wouldn't have had to get a hotel or a plane ticket, just PAX pass and drive to my parents.

Had I known with PAX passes went on sale that Halo CEA and a TU were coming this fall...

Going into Snipers alone...

HERE WE GO >_<

You like self-inflicting pain bro?

 

[Tawpgun]

smh.

 

[Stinkles]

Mmhmm. I am going to do the first "populated" walkthrough of the setup - with the Warthog, the art, the kiosks etc all set up.

 

[thezerofire]

Going into Snipers

here is your first mistake

alone...

OH GOD

 

[Tawpgun]

OH GOD

Snipers is the only good solo playlist.

Juniors for life.

I remember when I was a junior, up until recently. *pleasant sigh*

Reminds me of when alienshogun tried to call me out and burn me for being a junior member, when I'd actually been registered longer than him. A few days later he committed internet suicide with that picture of him holding a handgun. Anyone still have that pic? God how I laughed.

 

[StalkerUKCG]

Pumped for halofest, frankie any word on what panels which should keep our eyes extra peeled while watching?

When/where can we line up for halofest? How is tournament entrance going to work?

 

[neoism]

So I'm sure there will a Halofest thread but is everyone going to post there... I think you all /we should just post here.

That's what I assumed would happen anyway.

I am not going to be here tomorrow. I am going to have a ton to catch up on.

Haha I thought I was accepted quickly until I talked to Starwolf.

 

[Tawpgun]

Was anyone assigned to make one?

 

[neoism]

Some Gametrailers footage with Dan's insight.

Might be the worst player I have ever seen lol. Also, apparently using the Pistol is a sin or something.

yeah I stopped at 40 seconds in... WTF He has sprint ... doesn't use it. o.0

 

[Reagan's BR]

Looked like his first time playing a Halo/FPS game.

 

[thezerofire]

I'll have to disagree there. I think Snipers is a terrible playlist regardless of how many people you go in with.

oh is that what happened? I'd like to see

 

[squidhands]

Ghaleon kind of hinted that he might, with his comment about bringing his laptop to HaloFest. I could have taken it wrong, but that was my impression.

edit: VV that's entirely possible. VV

I thought that was so he could start OT6 when this one reached 20k posts.


Also I saw this mentioned a while back but would it be against the rules for us to just have a Halogaf thread instead of a Reach one? Seeing as how we talk about all of the Halo titles in here and pretty soon we will be talking about Reach and CEA.

Give me a better solo playlist.

None isn't an answer.

 

[Tunavi]

Squad Slayer. At least you can't get immediately killed on your spawn.

I ain't touching my favorite playlist without a team.

In Snipers I can carry much easier than I can in a standard game.

 

[PooBone]

Pretty sure it was in a Reach thread pre-launch.

In snipers all that happens is everyone votes for Uncaged for some reason and we inevitably get spawn camped.

 

[senador]

I've been playing snipers solo lately. I would agree it's one of the few lists you can go into alone. I've won games with quitters on my team or at least gone positive. That doesn't happen for me in other lists.

That's because other lists have bloom.

 

[The Librarian]

Give me a better solo playlist.

BOOM! Ball FFA. Or a team playlist of BOOM! Ball.

It would be the bestest playlist ever of all time.

 

[Tunavi]

There NEEDS to be a Slayer Pro playlist.

Actually, arena should just be slayer pro.

 

[senador]

That's because other lists have bloom.

That and other reasons. No radar, no additional power weapons, Sprint only, minimal grenades.

Wow writing it out makes it sound even better!

 

[senador]

There NEEDS to be a Slayer Pro playlist.

I would like that if Needle Rifle loadout had frags instead of plasmas. I prefer NR but that loadout makes it a sticky fest. That includes me. My TOD in Slayer Pro usually ends up being plasmas with 6-10 sticks.

Sorry for 2 posts. I am on phone and it's difficult to combine quotes.

I would play this exclusively until the TU dropped.

 

[Barrow Roll]

Sorry double post. So I'll leave you with a cool Star Wars style Halo poster:

Carter's shoulder armor is wrong cuz he just mirrored the image. That bugs me. But it's still pretty cool.

And I'm sorry 100 ppp people, you probably have this image quoted 3 times now.

 

[feel]

Anyone up for the Halofest thread creating duties?? And I don't mean just making the thread and tossing a couple banners and some info in there and never touching it again, any of us could do that, I meant someone willing to keep it updated through the weekend with all the stuff happening and new important info/media coming out.

That's a good idea. It'll make it easier for those of us going to PAX to give quick impressions.

I vote Uncaged over Hemo anyday.

 

[MrBig]

Here was my HBO intro for hitmonchan, which didn't make the vote
I learned a lot making it though and will gladly do any more work for anyone here

*considers*

My weekend is too unknown for me to do it, unlike when I did the MS Gamescon thread. If no one else steps up to the plate I'll do it (as best as I reasonably can).

What's the point of a Halo fest thread when there's a Halo thread?

This would be in Gaming, as there'll be a lot of news from the event, that is of interest to more than just HaloGAF.
