i hope tomorrow's maps are followed with some pretty fun multiplayer challenges for the rest of the week. brotherhood's hooked me deep, and it's going to be hard to pull myself away to frolic on what look to be excellent additions to Reach's mapspace.
if you would have told me six months ago that I'd be forgoing Reach to essentially play glorified Hide-and-Seek, well, I would have been incredulous to say the least.
here's to changing things up!

I was hoping we would see the details on the "VIP" playlist on the playlists page. We usually can see playlists that are coming on the page early.

Any word as to what the UPDATE will change besides changing things to accommodate the new maps?

I know I'm the minority, but the challenge system has made me play less. Having challenges that are time intensive instead of skill intensive makes it harder for me to turn on my xbox when I can only play for an hour or so at night. Hitting Commander pretty much made me stop playing once I saw that it was going to take 50,000 cR to be promoted from the first tier of the rank. Also, a weekly challenge that is less than half the value of last weeks. No thanks. I hate to say it, but I'm slowly starting to dislike the challenge system. It's de-motivating me to play which is funny since that's the opposite of its intention.

At some point in Commander Grade 2 I realized two things:
1) I don't really give a shit what my armor looks like.
2) That goes triple for everyone else regarding my armor.
And of course it's been true since day one that 3) Rank doesn't indicate skill.
It was at this point that I ignored credits and only played Reach when I wanted to or thought I would have fun with it.

I'm on the opposite side of the fence. I want my armor to look cool, but I can never get it to look right. There's always something that irks me about the armor I use.Genesis Knight said:

Might be that the pose in the lobby menu (pre-game, Spartan cradling the DMR) is horrible for showing off armor. I wish they stood like they do in the armory.

I'm pretty happy with my armor now. Wasn't cool enough to get Recon in H3, but now that I can buy the non-goofy helmet I think this is what I'll be looking like for a while.Blue Ninja said:

True. I usually open up a quick game of campaign so I can see my Six in action in both a cutscene and gameplay, but I always end up dissatisfied. I was pretty happy with my original Six, wearing the pre-order Recon helmet, chest and shoulder pieces. Now I keep switching between my Recon, Pilot and JFO helmet, I keep trying to make a set of asymmetrical shoulders that actually look good, and I keep experimenting with colors. I originally used Blue and Gold, but now I switched over to Blue and Silver, accompanied by a Silver visor. I got tired of waiting/saving for that Gold visor.Genesis Knight said:
That's part of the problem, I think, at least for me. I buy something, only to see something I can't buy yet, and thinking "Hey, that looks awesome." Once I'm finally able to buy that, however, I'll see something even better, or I'll find myself torn about which armor piece I want to use.

Dang that sucks.
If it makes you feel any better, I submitted my map Yeti Bay under BTB, but I have a video of Capture the Flag. The rules state that the video of your map has to be of the gametype that it's made for. Hopefully they could look past something like that and choose it anyway. :lol

The job offer was meant for Juices! >:[urk said:
Also, my second guess immediately went towards the idea that urk was briefing ghaleon that some gaf mods were going to 'lose' this thread by accident as a heads up.

I'm confused. Whenever I look at my page, it's showing my Spartan updated, not the default one.

The joke was that you posted a link to to your stat's landing page, not the actual link to your stats. So the link you sent will just come up as the viewer's spartan not yours.

The link you sent is the default one, so anyone going to it will go to their own page.Dax01 said:

I assume its either a 'Crossroads has made it into matchmaking congrats!' message or map pack codes.
My Spartan hasnt updated yet either btw, HOPEFULLY they havent just decided to switch that feature off, the Spartan on my player page is ugly. :lol
