I think I saw some map talk earlier. Just wanted to say that The Pit > all

And I'm about to blind jump into the Firefly series bluray, I've heard its good, any fans around? (since it's scifi)

I love Firefly. Hopefully you'll enjoy it and have a greater appreciation for the ODST campaign and Nathan Fillion in general. Make sure to watch Serenity after you're done with the TV episodes.

I watched Serenity before Firefly, it was good in that order too

You know that there is a WP7 app for HaloWaypoint? Otherwise Silverlight support should come with Mango. I had a education about WP7 and Sliverlight a few months ago.

Didn't think to use the waypoint app, good call.

Anyway, I think my general point still stands, the physics and hammer in Reach still make Reach grifball feel more grounded. A top 10 in Halo 3 would have offered more acrobatic clips. I has fun with H3 grifball. In Reach not so much. But its rocket race that disappointed me in Reach...

I'm hitting up a few of ye with friend requests. Anyone want one? :p

I'll take any amount of complaints from Halo playing people over just about the rest of the internet's complaints on Halo any day of the week. This thread is tame :p

My BF and I just started watching it a week ago! It's so awesome! The story seems a little meh but I really like all the characters. :)

I envy you and Sai. I basically watched the first 3 episodes accidentally then could not FREEKING stop watching. Your heart will be sad when you are all out of eps. to watch. Luckily Doctor Who came along to fill the sci-fi TV void.

I'm going to try playing Reach again in full force this month, so I can feel even more relieved when the TU hits. I've been mostly going back achievement hunting and playing arcade games recently.

GT: Retrogames. Always happy to have people to play with that aren't blithering assholes.

I too, will probably be playing a lot. Let my Live subscription lapse in February and I've kinda missed playing Reach. Check out my file share often because I tend to play in Forge more than any other part of the game.

Same here, actually. We watched Serenity again after it was all over, though. But watching the movie first works really well too.

Glad you're digging it, Letters. So good.

Yeah, the memories of people who don't complain as much are much better. Wait, they aren't. We get to hear their cool insights like "I assert things about the design of Halo CE but I literally cannot remember whether the weapon that I claim single-handedly ruined the game was hitscan or not" and "strafing is useless" and "the plasma pistol is unbalanced because of players positioning themselves badly".

These rockets sure are overpowered! I don't have any chance to turn around and kill the other player when they get the jump on me with them!!!

I was merely making a point as to why we have an OT6.

HaloSphere v2 launched on HaloCharts a while back and once again I am suuuuucked in :/

It was a reference to FyreWulff mentioning how his group of players frequently banned the plasma pistol from use in Halo CE because they could not turn around when he got the jump on them with it.

You just click an awful lot of things. You can equip weapons, armor, AAs, etc but each one that unlocks is seemingly better than previous ones. You have base traits you can incement when you level up and you sort of 1v1 other players and gain EXP and Skill. It's addictive, b warned :/

Considering the act of picking up the controller and playing Halo automatically includes playing with yourself, yes Fyrewull has always and will always play with bad kids.

and that junior can't be Eazy. Eazy would not be in favor of rockets that wipe everyone in the room they hit with minimal aiming effort required

Got a tracking number from Sennheiser for my headset. Very fast turnaround time, I was surprised. I should get my new replacement headset early next week.

I do not know how I implied that. I was taking a jab at FyreWulff's attitude towards the CE plasma pistol.

Hahahahaha, that's awesome.

What's with the sudden thread slowdown? Shit's worse than Asylum.

Good games tonight! Not with any of you, but regardless.

Edit: Firefly sucks. /controversialopinion

I doubt it (the thread). Most of Halo GAF will still probably post here about everything and the multiplayer is still technically Reach.

I meant that playlists that aren't affected by the TU are gonna be dead. I am probably wrong, because Living Dead will always be the most popular playlist. I was just joking.

Living Dead wasn't the most popular playlist before...then again it never had a permanent home like it does in Reach. Can you imagine a world where Team Objective has a consistent +10,000 player population?

I think it would be interesting if they turned off kill medals and kill/death stat tracking in objective, and replaced it with a feedback system more suited to objective play. I know that the majority of the player population supposedly doesn't care about objective, but I think that Halo games put so much focus on slayer from top-to-bottom via the UI that it can detract from the experience.
