Both. Dual SMGs.

They had better return in Halo 5.

I was thinking about this the other day about how duals could finally work since it seems 343 is taking the "make everything powerful" route, but then I thought about the SAW. In order for dual wielding to be worth using, it has to be extremely powerful like the SAW, but once I looked at the sandbox as a whole and saw we already have a stronger starting automatics lineup on top of an even stronger Ordnance automatic (the SAW), I came to the realization that dual wielding would be useless at this point.

Maybe they'll make a powerup in Halo 5 that you can diel wield your primary/secondary weapons for a short period of time like the Gunzerker :b


Also, let me know the next time you're on MM so I can get dem mapz <3

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

I got you covered bro. I applied as soon as that position opened.

Ha, I'm applied for Sustain Associate Producer, but Community Coordinator is much more my thing. I've basically done that kind of job as a second job for a year and a half now for THQ.

Something will come along someday hopefully.

Haha so good

 

[Coux]

I go to Northeastern, on campus on St Stephens

I was thinking of maybe living on JP off campus next year.

Lots of Northeastern folks around these parts. My gf is a an alum from there. She's the only one I've met that plays halo. We'll, now there's you as well.

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

Haha so good

Hey, like it or not I do like to apply for jobs I'd like to have. Seems to be a foreign concept here, people seem to hate on you for it.

Such is life.

Hire Juices.

 

[feel]

still expensive. Boston is expensive as shit for y'all who have never been. fun though.

Welcome back man!

You want to get hired at 343? I had no idea.

 

[Vire]

Wonder how the first day of reviews for press went...

 

[FyreWulff]

If duals ever came back, I'd rather see them streamlined.

No separate button to initiate a dual wield, and you can only dual two of the same weapon.

So like it is now in Reach/4, except if you're holding a SMG, and walk over another SMG, it just says "Hold RB to pick up another SMG".

If weapons can only be held with the same weapons, then it'd simplify the balancing trainwreck immensely.

I'm in that weird spot where I'm not against dual wielding but not calling for it's return either. It was very much an afterthought in Halo 3, and I hardly ever used it there.

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

Oh welcome back, I wondered why it seemed so nice around here lately. /salt

Fine, if it's that big of deal that I've mentioned positions at 343 (when said positions were being discussed, and relevant to the thread), I'll stop. Didn't realize it annoyed people, because, you know, I've said something all of about four times when jobs were mentioned over the course of a year.

 

[Tashi]

Wonder how the first day of reviews for press went...

Swimmingly I would imagine.

God damn, my fiery burn to play Reach lately has been unmatched. I just wanna poopy on people.

 

[FateBreaker]

Wonder how the first day of reviews for press went...

Wait, what? When are the reviews released?

 

[Reagan's BR]

I just ordered a copy of the Reach Legendary Edition Guide for the art section at the end. I hope I get a decent cover. If I end up with Kat I'll be livid.

Could be worse, I ended up with Six, lol.

 

[Reagan's BR]

If I get Kat we should talk about trading.

Edit: Does anyone know why the Halo 3 art book had such a small print? Frankie?

 

[Stinkles]

Why do you hate Kat so much? You've mentioned her like three days in a row now. :lol

 

[Tashi]

Wonder what media outlets went.

I would imagine a decent amount including popular mainstream newspapers and magazines.

 

[Steelyuhas]

The tall, dapper Seattle native who's generally seen creeping behind Angel or Allison Stroll. Also a Waypoint mod.

I'm not a waypoint mod.

 

[u4iX]

Wonder what media outlets went.

I just hope they get a fair impression of the multiplayer experience.

New map video from IGN tomorrow correct? Excited. I get a much better sense of the map flow with a free cam view of the map opposed to just a first person walk through or even gameplay.

Also, are we expecting some Forge news soon as well?

To quote the illustrious Flava Flav... YEAAA BOYYY.

 

[The Librarian]

You're tall?

Please.

I mean I don't even want to joke about it anymore. :/

 

[u4iX]

Please.

I mean I don't even want to joke about it anymore. :/

I'm sure people would be attracted to some new forge news; it'd really be magnetic to some. Not to polarize the audience, but that's just the plus and minus of it all.

 

[Reagan's BR]

Why do you hate Kat so much? You've mentioned her like three days in a row now. :lol

I just do; she was my least favorite character in Reach, she died in a really lame way, she can't say colonel, etc. I'm just not a fan of her, at all.

If I had to rank the characters in Reach from best to worst:
6
Jun
Emile
Carter
Jorge
Halsey
Auntie Dot
OONSK
Colonel Holland
That Militia guy with the stollen guns
The Zealot
Grunt 312
The Forklift

You stop it. Stop it right now. It is not ok to joke about this anymore. This is serious. I am serious.

This is serious.

Media playing competitive multiplayer modes...LOL

You're tall?

6'1"

Spoiler

4 inches above average male height is considered tall right?

Kat

Haha. They killed Kat right as they started peeling back the hacker Russian girl pastiche they built--not thirty seconds after her first real meaningful exchange with Six.

I think that we could have lost either Emile or Jun and strengthened the remaining characters. My gut says Emile, since he was useless in gameplay and rather one-dimensional (that was kind of the point--keeping his game face on as it were.)

As a 5'8 hobbit I envy you tall tree people.

Psh, you're not that short. 5'10" is good enough for me anyhow. If a chick only dates people 6' and over and she's not a basketball player I'm not interested in her either

I'm 3 inches taller than you, what does that make me?

I think you should be, but hey I guess I'm a tiny bit biased.

Goddammit, Tashi.

If I had to rank the characters in Reach from best to worst:

Haha, fair enough. I liked her at first, but eventually downgraded that down to mere indifference. I'd rate Noble Team Jorge > Jun > Kat > Carter > Emile. Jorge is by far the best, though.

An Ent if we go by the Cyren system.

:lol I'm like a quarter inch short of six feet. So I just call myself six feet.

It would seem Jeff from Giant Bomb went:

Can not WAIT for that new map tomorrow!

I want to take Kat off of my LE statue and replace her with a 6 action figure. I might have a Batman figure from when I was a kid.

 

[GhaleonEB]

Whichever map it is, I doubt it'll cause a meltdown.

Well played.


I liked Kat, in cinematics. Get her near a Warthog and she's psychotic. Her death was handled about as badly as humanly possible.
