Do you have at least one bar of energy, you need a bar per takedown.GhaleonEB said:

What is with this failed ass troll.
I dong on kids hard in BTB. Kill them on spawn or while they're moving across map from hilarious distances with the DMR. I'm sure they love that and it doesn't cause them to ragequit. I can see where it causes a stand still in BTB. It's more detrimental to BTB play than beneficial. And the maps don't help because they offer little way in moving across map without the issue of being pinged from an opponent from a vast distance. So what happens? You either get a really one sided game or a game that ends in a tie/no one scoring. I don't think I've seen a game on hemorrhage (or its FW edits) yet that was competitive with both teams scoring. I've seen some last minute scoring of one bomb arm for instance but I've yet to see any push and pull, it's usually just one team with their face in the mud.

Have you got your robot arms yet? You need to get augmented before you can do takedowns. Yeah you're in the training phase.

Oh man, I just remembered, you don't get Takedowns till a certain point in the story, don't want to fill up this thread with DX stuff, but that could be it, totally forgot that after 40hrs where it was doable.GhaleonEB said:
I'm really confused. I'm not allowed to play a stealth style yet? I thought that was the point of the game. The gun play is horrific and I'm trying to avoid it.lybertyboy said:

Last question, I didn't want to go get shit on in the Deus Ex thread. Sorry for the de-rail.

No, you can totally play stealthy, just sneak past everyone when they aren't looking to new cover.GhaleonEB said:

Also I didn't get an answer earlier, is zerofire the closest person in distance to me now? (I'm in the Bay Area north of SF) Because I want to experiment with sending some stuff out.

It is actually better to be the 1 than part of the 6 because you have a massive tactical advantage in slayer. But still impressive.Tunavi said:

The game doesn't start properly until after the Lab section. You will get your first takedown tutorial after it's finished and no, you can't do any takedowns until you get augmented.
You can play stealthy during the intro, but that means sneaking past everyone.
After the intro, you'll never have to fire a gun again if you choose (bosses excluded).
Best advice is get past that intro section and into the real game ASAP.
Guys, guys, guys relax! You should all know by now that Ghal's trustworthiness when it comes to opinions on all things Halo doesn't translate well at all to good opinions when talking about other games. xD
Just ask him for his personal opinion on your favorite games ever, go ahead, prepare to be heartbroken.
edit- and I'm bailing out for the night, still haven't gotten around to playing Deux Ex and don't want to know details
btw about Firefly (maybe spoilers)

The gunplay is actually pretty good for a game thats not really a "shooter"
I'd suggest sitting in that training and figuring it out.
I'm doing good quickscoping enemies with the sniper.

It's far easier to get into than the gunplay in the original, from memory the reticule sway was ridiculous at the start.xxjuicesxx said:

Given the spawns on hemorrhage there wasn't much they could do actually. The weapon slows down big team, why would you argue different?

I've got a new babysitting gig Saturday nights for these freaking AWESOME kids. We spent the evening climbing on street signs, playing the Game of Life (made up our own rules, so it was fun), listening to Queen, and hitting each other with foam Nerf maces. SO AWESOME.
But it means I'm going to be missing customs indefinitely. :-(
I'm getting on for a few games now if yall aren't too pooped

He definitely brings some entertainment, that's for sure.
I know I absolutely hate one of his favorite game this generation. Opinions are opinions I guess.

They are now going for a no-kill win.
They weren't too far off last game If the ran across a really bad team it might be possible.

I was just making a quip (a terrible one I suppose?). However, in response to your statement...
There are additional terms in the Agreement between Bungie and Activision that were never disclosed.
As long as we are not aware of these additional terms, we don't know the full extent of the partnership. Two sentences do not mean anything.

I have the film, if anyone's interested.
Though yeah, you have a huge advantage in Slayer because there's way more enemies to kill and way less teammates to die. It's pretty fun going 4/6/whatever v 1, actually. It feels like a sort of practice mode or something.

lol oh the coincidences.
I'm amazed that people are advocating a switch back to the previous main weapons. The DMR is an excellent weapon and I will be crushed if we are back to rate-capped spread laden BRs in Halo 4.
Although in a perfect world there is room for both weapons to coexist to offer both playing experiences.

DMR's range needs to be nerfed hard, it's annoying in BTB. Shouldn't affect small maps, but you shouldn't be able to ping people from across Hemo with a non power weapon, pretty dumb.
We had a hilarious game of 2 Flag Slayer on Zealot tonight where it kept spawning the guys right in front of us. 3 People in the basement and me in the top mid, and the game refused to spawn them any where but their basement, was hilariously broken.
