You should inform them that this particular game only counts for <1% of your total career stats, and their influence on such can be mathematically demonstrated as a rounding error.

Then they'll take your lunch money.

I support your efforts in the campaign against objective holding.

I always felt like Reach was a spin-off dressed up as a major title.

Anyone here watch Awake?
Just watched the most recent episode.. it was some of the best of TV ever.

It is a bit procedural a few episodes, but some of them are really awesome.
This newest one especially was phenomenal.

Quite random but I was just messing around on Spire and noticed both tier 1 objective covenant devices can be somewhat damaged or destroyed.

I already blew up Bravo (the tall purple thingy) with focused plasma turret fire and nades.

What's funny is I haven't been able to destroy Alpha because it has SHIELDS! Anyway, I was able to destroy it in forge by smashing a spawn point agains it, other funny fact is: once destroyed the model shown will be the same as the jammers found on New Alexandria.

Just wanted to share this with HaloGAF.

I was just about to ask the same thing. When someone says they don't think a game has changed enough to interest them, I take that to mean they never really cared for the game in the first place. I think it might be time to move on after 10 years. Or put it this way: I'm not a big fan of McDonald's, but I'm not waiting for it to become Five Guys, either.

True, but it sounds like you swing too far in the opposite direction for me.
I want some change.

I don't want the 9 level predictable (the vehicle level, the stealth level) format Campaign either. I do want to be surprised by some of the gameplay and structure of the Campaign.

Yeah. I'm more conservative when it comes to changes with multiplayer. But as far as campaign goes, I think it's time for a huge change. I'd like to be surprised as many times as possible, but in a good way obviously.

I only have the trial still, but me and Hydra are definitely gonna pick up the full game I'd say. I've played through the trial a few times now, much more fun than I thought it was going to be :P The fact that it's split screen was a pretty huge plus aswell :)

I've never played it on pc, so I can't compare the controls to that or anything. But I found the controls pretty easy to get the hang of :) The interface with the inventory confused me at first, sometimes it was hard to tell if something was created or not, but other than that it was generally quite simple to get into.

Yep, the inventory system is a bit clunky, it's pretty much the same inventory interface as the pc cersion except you're controlling the mouse pointer with the sticks. Aside from that, it controls really well. Cycle through items with the bumpers and interact with the world with the two triggers.

Ah yeah, I forgot you were getting that. Um, I'm probably gonna be leaving around 6 or 7. You'll definitely be offline before I get home I'd say, seeing as you sleep ridiculously early :P

I donated early on and even I think it got to be a little much. I can't imagine the level of annoyance for games press considering the number of backer comments that are basically "hey spam this guys twitter and maybe we'll get a retweet!"
