Now that Bungie is including the sprint action, the lunge may go away altogether. Not really sure how it would work while you jump though.

Pretty good question. Probably still will be, but if not, not a bad move, either. I hope the melee-lunge goes back to its Halo: CE roots, as well.

Holy shit, reading about Infinity ward and Activision makes me really glad Bungie went independent.

Yeah, I'm glad as well. But Microsoft is far from being as evil as Activision. Hopefully 343i ends up picking these guys up :D

Final call for all clips!


Awesome news indeed. =o
Click to expand...
Hurgh! I am extremely upset with my lack of clips for this montage...

I have one clip from last night, but it wasn't really anything special... Stick across midship+frag for a double kill.

I'll made a clip of it tonight and upload it to my file share.

The internet here at camp is so inconsistent... I had to get off last night because I kept lagging :\.. I am assuming we have a shared T3 line here, so the speed test LOOKS like I have great down/up speeds... But the sharing causes random spikes in lag.

Oh well!

Whatever the MP Bomb is I am extremely excited for it... Though I am not sure if we should be expecting it today (or like Wu said) tomorrow :\

When was that thing posted? Late last night? If so then yeah it will be tomorrow. I don't care though. I'm just happy that we are finally getting MP news. :D

Butttt...if I had been set on hoping to hear it today and found this out, I feel that this gif would have been appropriate.

All your base.

So if the podcast they're recording today hits before the content they're releasing today, it's on my shoulders? This is quite possibly the best thing I could possibly be blamed for ever.

Then again, if March's podcast gets delayed like February's, you could be blamed for that.

You're right, the range I stated was incorrect, that was the range when they "went active," though the 3 you mention in the first sentence were all at least 7 when conscripted, going by birthdates on Bungie.net and the start of the SIII program (2531). Carter was 11, Emile was 8, and Jun was 7 (and just for reference Kat was 7 when Beta Company was created).

You're still ignoring the main reason anybody has an accent: the people they learned the language from had one. If you take some one from, say, Arkansas, who only knows 1 language and compared their manner of speaking to mine, they would sound differently than I despite both of us only knowing 1 language: English.

And you claim that Cat has a very thick accent, yet we have heard her say a grand total of 1 word.
Click to expand...
Pretty sure Kurt, Mendez and an AI, along with UNSC trainers, raised them their whole early life. Send me to Britain now (or whatever country), and I won't develop an accent like Jorge for the rest of my life.

It's the same exact thing as the ODST live-action ad. For "entertainment purposes", they had an ODST training program in Hungarian, even though the official language of the UNSC is english. No matter what country or planet it's on, the official language should be used in all official capacities. To make it more 'epic', they took away from the character of the franchise to appeal to mainstream.

I honestly think it was a misnomer. I'm positive Bungie works on multiple things, including, *duh duh duuuuuuh*, trailers. Don't look too far into this cave, it only goes so deep.

Seems like Bungie's dropping a dirty bomb now. Ouch, sorry I broke a metaphore again. Looking forward to whatever could be in the pipe!

Not everyone has sprint, so lunge needs to stay.

What, like on a melee? I'm certain it still will be in. Lunge is only for covering ground, I'd think it'd be useless in CQB.

That kind of looks like a mission where you're on the gun of a pelican or some other ship and you have to shoot covenant before landing

Can be something completely different though
