I'm happy I can play now, don't get me wrong. I just prefer to have a physical copy. I might just pick up a used one soon and give away my code, not sure yet.

They simply cannot update the preview disc versions. Sending codes for GoD games is far easier/cheaper than mailing physical discs.

True, which is why I understand the decision.

On another note, it's kinda sad people are already trying to sell off codes for profit.

Only if you pickup the shipping costs. Otherwise I would say its the deal of the century.

I think you misunderstand. I will give you a Reach on demand code for your "black market" Halo Fest Duke. :)

Lets keep up the community love and give out a Zero Bloom CTF variant?

Seriously though, can one of you comment on when we might see a 0 bloom objective gametype uploaded?

No I understood, I was just being facetious

What is the size for a 360 case?
Click to expand...
It is already the size it needs to be. I edited in a pdf version in case your printer doesn't preserve that size

It will fit on an 8.5x11; its 10.807x7.213
I recommend going to someplace to get it printed if you only have standard paper, and printing it on pamphlet paper.

The resistance counters it nicely. It played surprisingly well.

Why increase dmg in the first place? Also, doesn't that make 'nades OP*? I don't think 110% DR counters those. Or does it?

*They're already, unless movement and jumping is boosted.

Good games guys. That was my first time getting to test out the zero bloom stuff in proper matches. It was pretty fun! Those matches were all pretty cool.

I might be on again later on if people are still on :)

Whilst I'm enjoying the no-bloom gameplay, you guys are all over the place with various setting such as movement, jump height, damage resistance etc. Not fun ice skating around a level and have to readjust each time with every group.

The raw version was bigger tham my 20" monitor, so I don't think that is the right size lol. Unless you mean unzoomed then ok. And yeah, there's a kinko's right near my apartment so I'll get it there

I think default ZBS is far too slow, movement wise. Players can't even go left or right without getting killed. It's bad enough with a 1v1 situation, let alone more. I think experimentation is the key to refining what is looking to be a promising playlist.

I should be sleeping right now. It's almost 3am here. Night you know. I know i've played with HaloGAFers very later before but that was when i was alone.
Also, i'm not keen on playing Reach before we get new maps.

EDIT my ideal game mode: non-nuke 'nades, no AAs, increased movement, zero bloom and that being BTB or at least a game with vehicles. EDIT of EDIT, let's make that useful and balanced vehicles. No Halo 3 ghost (was too strong IMO), Reach Banshee, Tank...

That's just relative to your screen size. It is the correct physical size but it seems large in the digital format since it is 300 dpi.

Has anyone NOT received a PPC yet, or is it a staggered release?

I wouldn't worry too much yet. Odds are they're still going out. Then you have to deal with sometimes mail being a bit sluggish getting to you. I'd say if you haven't gotten it by morning then be worried.

Also check spam folders to be sure it didn't get stuck in there.

Eh, I'm just impatient. Sitting here at work on GAF constantly refreshing my GMail on my Phone.

I'd honestly forward the email to my work email and redeem it here lol.

Also, lots of damage control for Microsoft today, Halo: Reach and console bans, lovely.

It's understandable. And really a new wave of bans today huh? I hadn't heard about that. Course I don't mod my console and try to ruin other people's fun on live so I tend not to follow that stuff closely.

Well actually, Microsoft has found that a subset of users who were banned, were banned unfairly, and are reversing the decision with a bit of compensation as well.

I did find it odd that SO MANY people were crying foul, because console bans happen every year, and I haven't seen one with so many whiners.

Turns out it was justified whining. :(
