Halo: Reach |OT7| What are They to Say Now?
- Thread starter The Librarian
- Start date
Whoa you still play Halo after that 75-1 incident? Surprising.
TRUCK NUTS
Everyone chokes eventually.
Pretty big bummer, still not sure what happened there. I can be on in about 20 minutes if you want to try again or play Reach or whatever.
It was nice to have a reminder of what difficult Firefight felt like, and how much fun Halo 3/ODST AI were to fight against. That's something that Reach seems to falter in, or at least my perception of it.
Yea, sure I'll hop on at like 930 and we can do whatever. I'd be up for another shot at ODST, maybe get a couple more this time.
Also, I updated this: http://galefire.com/2011/12/nexus-in-the-distance-enviro/
The big environment piece I posted before if anyone is interested.
Sorry, no. But how do you feel about flaming truck nuts?

I loved that commentary. Hilarious.
I'm going to throw something out there that some of HaloGAF may find alarming, so brace yourself and stay calm. What if there is no public beta for Halo 4? Try to keep out your obvious desires to play some form of the game as soon as possible.

I literally just laughed so hard and so fast that I choked. I got better, though.
Oh man. I'm sorry that Master Chief's balls made you choke.
I swear this wasn't an elaborate plot to kill you. With balls.
Edit: Worked on Kim Jong-il, though!

Bravo. Flipyap, we should do stand-up Halo comedy some time. I'll work on setting up the jokes, then you come in with the punchlines.
Snipedown's streaming H3 too - http://www.twitch.tv/snip3down
There are more people playing H3 Doubles than Team Objective in Reach.

Oh and look what he popped back in a more reliable game with better netcode...
A game called Reach.
Jesus look how fast the gameplay is compared to 3. Fuckin ehhhh. As shitty as Reach's framerate is its still better than 3's!
Its only saving grace.
What was the point of spending all that money and man hours on the first beta, then? Besides the fact that they're not really using it as a beta, more of a gametype preview. Unless they're actually going to attempt to push Zero Bloom into regular matchmaking.
They should have saved all their cute little changes for Halo 4.

Now you're just mad.
Considering they basically had 1 guy doing all the coding for the update, I doubt it was that much money and man hours comparatively, lol.
He's talking about the Bungie beta, they one where they changed practically nothing that mattered to retail.
definitely, maybe.

"Hey guys, let's have a total wankfest in tribute to the original Halo!"
"Sure! Hey, let's do it for Halo 4 since the code hasn't been pressed to disc and we can include all the options for the UI!"
"No"
"What"
"No. That would make too much sense. Let's pay for a single programmer to implement half the stuff actually needed to complete the experience, split the userbase, and then attempt to rebalance Bungie's game and stop after 3 weapons. Because we don't have enough manpower to actually pull off a complete TU. Also, we don't have the time to actually fix bugs in the game."
"But.. I thought we weren't doing Halo 1 multiplayer because it'd split the userbase?"
"This is different. It's a love letter to the fans. A love letter that they have to pay 15$ to access in matchmaking."

If you still wanna knock out some of those ODST FF achievements, hit me up. I'm just gonna do some Reach custom challenges.
I would but I think I've had enough of those for tonite, spent a while on them with Havok. Probably will do some more tomorrow night tho.

But after you played Zelda, you are better! And get me a hoodie.
3-month free access to drunkfu. limited to 50 copies due to liver failure, naturally.
It would surprise me that 343 would be so confident in their first game and make me a little worried. Its one thing to have internal testing of a couple thousand, but its another to have millions testing everything about your game and backend.
Just can't achieve the same results. Also, if they want feedback on gameplay and weapons, they wouldn't be able to get the same feedback from other MGS employees who most probably don't play much halo like they would from the general halo fanbase.
