Holy poo poo the halo wiki is a rabbit's hole. I tried looking for plot information and found out that there were pre-humans and then pre-cursors which were the most advanced thing and then came forerunners and I don't know what the gently caress

Creepy Goat posted:Ahhh this is annoying. I assumed it would have a long reload time and crappy accuracy to balance it so I could make a heavy weapons character; more of a suppression weapon that knocks enemies aim and movement around for tighter teamwork in matches. You an equip the suppressor, which is the successor to the covenant concussion rifle from what I can tell?

Is a metatag getting set up for this anytime soon? I never got to play with people from the forums on the first couple of games because I got into them late but I have been playing with goons on ME3 and it's way better than pubbies.

Better players than you playing Halo 4 now (Grand Finals for MLG Dallas are up on twitch now, I think it's 2-1 in a best of 7 or soemthing like that, I missed the earlier rounds) Quality is really garbage though, they're charging for the HD streams. Free streams are nicer looking

Watching the Machinima stream, and no doubt in my mind, this game is so much better looking than Halo Reach and the remake of Halo Combat Evolved that came out last year. Didn't realize at all that an Xbox 360 game could look this good.

Didn't realize at all that an Xbox 360 game could look this good. Definitely the technical swan song for the machine. Sort of surprised a UE engine game wasn't the one, but MS certainly threw enough money and engineers at this game. On that note, hurry the gently caress up next gen, these consoles are creaky and poo poo. edit: TDM is a pretty boring finals. CTF or anything objective based is more interesting to watch when serious teamplay is involved. victrix fucked around with this message at 01:57 on Nov 5, 2012 |

Making the game volume so low so I can listen to thumbsticks click constantly was a really bold and good choice and I'm happy whoever set up the stream made it.

Every host of an HD stream on twitch tv has their mic volume turned way up and the game volume down. Please, tell me more about how you should have killed that guy At least the EU hosts had the game volume up.

I decided to watch through that Forward Unto Dawn dealie again, this time without the breaks between episodes and I kind of dig it. But I definitely enjoyed it before John showed up and everything went to poo poo. I mean, yeah, it was going to happen, but the production values and the budget really don't hold up in that last episode and I thought the first three episodes were way more interesting than what came after. Halo: Highschool Edition and all. I did also somehow manage to miss the genuinely really funny line my first time through where Master Chief asks who's the best shot and Sully chokes out a "You, probably!?" EDIT: Also, way too much slow-mo throughout the series and some really overwrought musical cue choices.

I just liked some of the dainty running that chief did. like an 8ft tall super solder in powered armor needs to give a gently caress about uneven terrain.

I liked the bit where he told them he'd draw the enemy's fire and then just vanished for a couple of minutes while the Cadets got shot at and basically did all the work.

So has it been confirmed whether or not the double xp code on Doritoes bags can be reused for multiple people? Just asking because I work at a grocery store and may or may not have written down a whole smack o' codes. edit: if they can't be reused I am aware that this makes me a mega-dick vvv well the Mountain Dew for sure since those are inside the boxes, but the chip codes are outside and they might be reusable to account for jerks like me double edit: ok well I tested by making a new account on the thing or whatever and yeah you can totally reuse the Dorito codes, so I guess if anyone wants any just PM me and I'll get em to you tomorrow some time? I apologize sincerely to anyone who feels their purchase of Doritos or Mountain Dew for Halo 4 Double XP codes has been cheapened by my actions.

EDIT: Yeah, I don't know if 'mega-dick' is a legal term, but there's one or two proper ones that cover that, yeah.

So we are back to one health bar, as in Halo 3? I thought the shift back to the shield and health bars in Reach was very well received. Has 343 mentioned this change at all?

# ? Nov 5, 2012 08:47 |

I would assume the official line is "Health packs suxx." Also if you truly believe those Dorito codes aren't consumable it is your solemn duty to grab a billion of them and post em up.

I think the official lore reason was that the newer suits self-inject medications and biofoam. The gameplay reason is probably "because Halo 3 did it". I did like the health/shield combo myself, though.

I haven't played much Halo with goons before despite playing every game in the series to piece since the original (I loved that game soo much). Playing with goons in MWO have really opened me up to how much fun it can be, so I'd want to get in on this with you. Do you guys use Mumble, or do you like use the crappy ingame voice system? My headset uses USB so I don't think I can use it with the 360, I tried it before. If I have a standard mic that with a mini-jack plug, can I just put that into the controller and then it'll work? Oh and I added myself to the metatag!

So, Microsoft is doing a Halo 4 launch event today in Stockholm, featuring (among other things) me as one of the singers. It seems to be a pretty big budget event, and they will be live streaming it on http://www.areyouworthy.se/livefeed/ at 1:30pm EST / 6:30pm UTC.
