Custom challenge stuff seems totally awesome. Playing around with that will pull me out of Skyrim at least for tonight.

Obviously need to be friends with Ghaleon to get his sweet firefight challenges. Still not really sure how they work, bit limited?

Waypoint update looks awesome.

Watching Tashi melt faces.

I didn't send it out, just stopped there until I find some answers. I want to test the waters today, but not until I know the scope of what I can tinker with.

Only being able to set a number for total medals, rather than specify which ones, limits Firefight Challenges significanly.

Looks like:

Kills: pick a number
Headshots: pick a number
Medals: pick a number
Kills of Enemy: select which enemy to target

Off to check Campaign ones.

This may sound crazy to you but apparently english is not everybody's first language, crazy stuff eh?

Not nice from you dude :/

I think I fixed my mistakes, is the edit ok?
I was just teasing, sorry. Guess I should have put a smiley face there or something so it was a little more obvious.

I actually knew English wasn't your first language too. It's Spanish, right? But yeah, just jokes, didn't mean to offend.
 
Anniversary's packaging is pretty neat, it makes up for the lack of a special edition.

Lol no problem then bro, that's what happens when you take HaloGAF seriously.

Peace <3

So I see the custom challenges thing on Halo Waypoint. What's to stop people from just creating a bunch of easy challenges to complete and earn tons of credits?

Technically you bought an 11 pack then.
Yup. Me ->

500 Bugger kills with Legendary minimum difficulty and all skulls on is worth a whopping 5,000cR. Heh

Also, there's still a cR cap.

Dat player behavior in matchmaking.

*looks at current weekly*

I don't see a specific weapon listed in that challenge. Perhaps I'm not reading it correctly.
We all know that you guys want to raise the use of the plasma pistole.


It feels so good to finish Halo without Warthog. SO good. Best mission ever.
Oh keep it clean, Dax01, I know I just want you guys to know that I nearly... you know I nearly did that naughty thing. So pretty that mission.

Yup, just a coincidence that a weekly that encourages you to use roughly pistol sized weapons runs during the same week Anniversary comes out with a gametype with a 3 shot kill pistol. :lol

Wait a second? Plasma pistol is a 3 shot kill weapon now?

Tashi I booked you for this weekend. You must make a pro out of me.

Is anyone else having issues signing into Halo Waypoint with their Live ID?

I sign in, and it does nothing. Hit sign in again, takes me to my Xbox LIVE account page.

wtf

Edit: Derp me. Went to a different page on the site, greeted with a nice 'Authentication is Offline' message. Well, thanks for letting me know now. :)

It's a one shot kill. For maximum skillz.

The Skyrim thread moves to fast for it's own good. No one ever answers my questions! :-( Maybe yall can help:

Okay, so I had something really weird happen to me. I found a random dead sabre cat in the middle of a road, and after I looted it it started glowing and made a REALLY loud explosion sound. The glow lingered for a few moments but eventually faded. Was that some kind of trap? It didn't seem to hurt my HP...
Maybe it just alerts enemies to my presence? IDK.
 
Devolution said:

Feeling the same thing. Probably for the best though, I have a FAT amount of work that needs to get done in the next two days. So naturally, I've been watching Tashi's stream for the past hour...
 
halo.xbox.com is running sooooo slooooow

Do custom challenges appear in game so those that i challenged know what the challenge is? Or do they have to accept it via the website?

Thinks the Evil Empire is just misunderstood.

It's all handled outside of the game so you'll want to keep a web connected device nearby to check up on your progress.

E4? *kuroyume-style roll eyes*

How was the episode? Any clever criticism/humour?
It was pretty tame. Mosly jokes about names: Grand Theft Scratcy, Mapple, Gamestation, YBOX, Electronic Crafts, Shaun White: Time Snowboarder, Dig Dug revelations, Terrance Malik's Tree of Life Online (I Laughed), Assassins Creed: Summer of Love, Guts of War 2, Marching Band.

The rest of the episode was about the Mom trying to be fun-cool-mom for the kids. Homer felt left out and then it goes downhill.
