Look at this character.
Lol Gandhi got fucked.
why are they wearing suits? *sigh*
halo is serious business...
duped!
Gandhi doesn't cast anymore, he got a job as eSports coordinator (I think that is the position) at Hirez for Smite.
edit: This happened last week I think, he casted his last event (for now) over the weekend at UMG Dallas.
edit: Googled to make sure I was right and he actually will be a commentator. Don't know why I thought he was a "coordinator" lol

So the guy who always talked about how he would never sell himself out to be a caster for a game he has no knowledge now commentates smite which he always trashed when AGL wanted to push it alongside Halo.
Lol this guy.

Nice vid, ExWife. You literally just edited it right? Because the Frankie helmet photo was in there. I wonder how Biggy got the Wraith stuck in the ground like that though.

Props for the Plinkett lines.

No Puckett? Preorder canceled.
If the original game didn't have it, it won't be in MCC either.

I was actually in the final stages of editing and I saw the picture and had to put it in.
As for the wraith, we were playing on a crazy bad Australian host and I guess the latency somehow forced the wraith into the ground's geometry. It was insane. It forced the entire match to run at like 8 fps until it gets destroyed and goes back up to 30fps. Likely due to the game trying to figure out what the hell to do.
Plinkett is love. Plinkett is life.
Maybe down the line, but the second book soured me too much.
Totally forgot about Mortal Dictata, I guess I skipped three books.
Silentium was pretty good. Mortal Dictata however, couldn't get past the first third of the book.

Just started Silentium after (after multiple attempts) giving up on on Primordium. Ended up just reading the plot summary on Halopedia. Haven't even started the Kilo Five trilogy.

I'd take Gandhi over Alex. But that's just preference of caster style really.

Got a Haven kind of feel to it. I like it.
- Sanctuary
- Zanzibar
- Coagulation
- Ascension
- Lockout
- Terminal, Waterworks or Containment?

Still one more to go, right?
My bad. I edited my post.

Lol I was thinking the same thing
. I was a little confused lolThe map looks so awesome
Looks like they're screengrabs from a video, not native captures. They aren't full-resolution, either - 1280x720, which also points to them being from video.

Hope we get some high res non compressed shots soon, the map looks great.
I also hope we finally get to see Coag at the PAX panel. After that we will just have to wait for whenever they decide to reveal the final map, maybe sometime in October?

I'll just call it shotgun. The green tone in some of the room looks cool as hell though.

at least from what we see, the map wasn't destroyed like blackout
so for me i don't really care :>

Still looks blurry, hope that's Gamespot's fault.
it should be... look at the top of green room and the details lost

Yeah I don't think it'd be a huge leap to say forge reveal with Coag and Lockout playable at PAX, right?

I love the look of green room.

probably due to how the set up the images to wipe from old H2 to new.
edit: I would also be totally cool with Containment as the last big map. Never felt like I got to play that map enough.
