The game does not take your military "rank" into account for matchmaking, at all.
I feel like I haven't been posting much, and I'm still 5 spot.

MLG needs to remove the pistol. Holy fuck is it annoying. It just kills man, it's so fuckin fast and so fuckin strong. If you wanna keep it, put it on a fuckin 3 minute respawn timer. The worst part is that people are relying on them and they think that they're good because they get kills with it. They're abusing the game. PLEASE GO AWAY!

After the "BTS" Vidoc stuff 343 put out for Halo CE:A i was hoping for some kind of dev dairy,vidoc,BTS type stuff for Halo 4 starting with the new year and revealing something big and new every few months. Multiplayer, Forge, Firefight, Campaign.
Hope for this dream is slowly fading, none the less i have faith that Halo 4 will be great.

I dont see how, surely the two a completely separate variables. Why would they be coded together at all. Infact im fairly sure they are not, I remember back when i played around with the beta you could null weapon bloom and it had no visible effect on damage bleed.

Nothing crazy, It just confirmed a Master Chief and Cryotube set and a Cortana figure if I recall. Ill see if I can find the exact info.
Frozen Master Chief in Cryotube
Warthog
Case of 8 - Includes Master Chief and Cortana, the rest are TBD
There were a few other TBD box sets, but they had no product info at all.

I know but for me as a player, I can predicate if the player knows the map etc through the rank. I feel safer if I play against and with randoms of the nearly same rank.
Not seeing it posted here but Square Enix is going to release a Red and Blue version of the Master Chief Play-Arts Kai. I hope they don't have the same quality as the Master Chief. Master Chief was a disappointed product. The left arm has a wrong component.(Instead of a left shoulder part, my Master Chief has the right shoulder part on the left side.) Figure is very unstable.
Did you post it a few months ago? I thought it was Barrow Roll, but I was wrong again like always.

Ill be buying everthing!. I really like the mcfarlane stuff. haters gunna hate.
Wondering if i should grab the Play Arts line. A large Chief + Noble team would be great to have. (need to fill my new shelves)

Noble Team= YES. Master Chief= NOPE. Shitty quality for mine and I asked a friend who has the figure too and he says that it has shitty quality too. But Barrow doesn't have any problems with his Master Chief. Maybe Europe gets the shitty quality and America gets the great quality like always.

I've shied away from models. I have a rare model worth a few hundred monies that isn't Halo related, so I'll happily hunt down good 3D art. It's expensive though and thankfully I've resisted the temptation with Halo thus far.
It's only a matter of time before I can't resist any longer (and have the cash!).
losers. all of you.

That's the Bungie I've always loved. I'm very happy to see them come out against it.
Really glad to see they came out and stated where they stand on it.

Could you post it? Just upgraded to a new PC at work and for some reason I can't get into b.net due to a LiveID issue, and xbox.com is not loading.
Ah, SOPA stand, I'm guessing? Bravo.

Urk should've mentioned the Senate's counterpart, PIPA, but some good news came out today regarding that:
News can be found here.
Glad to see Senator Leahy coming around. He's one of my favorite senators – a genuine progressive in most cases (but that's motherfucking Vermont for you, God, what a kickass state) – and it's been hurting me to see to push through this kind of legislation.

What we can do via quickly cooked mods and what 343 had the time to do, while preserving film and map variant compatibility are two separate things. Much like how bloomless guns were possible via modding, but of course they weren't compatible with unmodded games, nor could you watch films from normal Reach, because it would desync even if you got it to play. Modders can also selectively adjust bloom and/or spread on guns, while the 343 flag for 85%/ZB affects the DMR and NR at the same time.
At this point they have avoided all questions put forth, which I'd like to have seen answered. We don't know if they're separate parameters or if it's basically a "Activate Reach 1.1 stuff" flag and the game adopts the settings as a package.
One thing I noticed is that unlike other Megalo script functions, Zero Bloom remains in effect even after the 'Game Over' fires.
LiveID login availability is spotty today.

You just call me American? smh
Although my figure did come from an American distributor. Which got their figures from a Japanese company. Which probably had it's figures made in a Chinese factory.

I love Assassin's Creed, but damn, these base defense mini-games in Revelations are so stupid, repetitive, and boring. Do you have to do them in order to beat the main story?

RE: Halo Universe thread:
There it is.
Commence arguing about thread titles.
GhaleonEB said:The current Reach OT thread in Community - the 7th - is nearing the thread cap of 20,000 posts.
Over the course of the year, discussion in the thread has expanded beyond a focus on Reach as other Halo content has been released. New novels, the CEA release, Halo 4 rumors/speculation, etc. have all become a large share of the threads. That's led to a lot of discussion about whether the next OT should be titled for Reach, or to be something along the lines of a broader Halo Universe thread.
Going with that framing for the thread would be less about changing the purpose of the OT and more about acknowledging the ongoing scope of discussion. My thought is the Reach OT's could be rebranded Halo Universe discussions until the release of Halo 4 (at which point we'd have a Halo 4 OT).
The intent wouldn't be to replace ongoing or future Halo threads, but rather to make it clear that discussion of all things Halo is okay in the thread.
Please let me know what you think - I'll probably need to post the next OT late tonight or tomorrow.
Regards,
~Ben
duckroll said:That sounds pretty much in-line with how we view the evolving function of the Community forum. As fans of specific franchises get together and discuss about something over a long period of time, the scope of the discussions tend to expand. To prevent such discussions (which are totally valid, but simply off topic in many threads) from derailing actual news threads about new products in such a franchise, we have started encouraging Community Franchise threads for most of the bigger (and smaller but with a strong niche) game franchises.
So what you are suggesting is certainly welcome, and would definitely be consistent with what is expected of discussions which take place in the Community forum anyway. Feel free.
There it is.
Commence arguing about thread titles.
