really random, but I'm really glad we got CEA. It's is so damn good. probably one of the best looking games I've ever played.

The funny thing is 343 gave us CEA which is as pure as Halo gets, at least campaign wise, since there is no MP, but then they released 4 which is filled with all kinds of stuff that isn't Halo at all.

The beta brings me back to freshman year of college and getting my first xbox, exciting times those were.

Brings me back to the beginning of the end for Halo, sad times those were.

CEA's graphics were awesome, but the lag on aiming in Anny mode is atrocious.

No thanks. ODST had the worst characterization and most unlikeable personalities in the entire franchise. 343's main team should be on it, they did at least a half-decent job with the main campaign's new characters.
My memory may be serving me poorly but worst characterization goes to the Reach crew minus Kat & Jorge.

Agree with this.

Auntie Dot was insignificant
That colonel or whatever was insignificant
Carter was a bland by the books leader
Jun has 2 lines
Emile was meh

On CEA Graphics, I think it looks nice but they went on a color overboard. The graphics in space look laughably bad.

Space IS colorful!

Which is a fucking shame to be honest. Reach had good features, not good gameplay.
Reach MLG > Halo 4
Not that I'm going back, though. I'd rather go back to Halo 3 which is actually enjoyable even when you're not pooping on kids who are playing the game using their feet.

At least I played that game for longer than two weeks.
Cool, I guess? I played it for two year straight with all the backward ass-shit it had. Halo 4 is the better game.

Halo 2 > Halo 3 > Halo 4 > Reach for me.

I would rather people flock to Halo 3 then go back to the abomination that is Reach, sorry even thinking about playing that game pissed me off.

What about Halo 4 MLG? Or general barebones/hardcore Halo 4 gametypes, mods or not?
 
not really surprised by formal. Reach is a better Halo game than Halo 4 when you play it with MLG settings. "great core gameplay hidden beneath the new mechanics" can blow me. with the next map pack being gross brown Certain Affinity outsourced monstrosities it's probably better to cut losses and go back to Reach if you're still interested in Halo
I honestly cant remember but did reach have an mlg mode upon release? If it did not, the comparison isnt fair, at least not yet.
 
It still looked off. It wasn't just a cool nebula, like it was all blue and bright, and blerghh.
It was actually more purple, get your colors right.

RIP Tawpgun

People are getting too hung up on realism. The space in CEA is obviously very stylized and isn't meant to be a realistic depiction of space. Whether you think that's ugly or unfaithful to Bungie's version is another issue entirely.

Damn. You either gotta cook for yourself or get a meal plan and eat well in the dining halls.

You pay for Halo and Live. You can afford a basic pan or some shit.
 
nah people have been running into these guys in matchmaking.

hard to get headshots, when there are no heads to shoot at

Lots of people are getting banned for this aswell. It's against Xbox TOS much like those modded no sprint normal respawns are but some are clearly more enforced than others I'm curious to what position MS would have if the Competetivw community started using a modded gametype as its core mode.

Pretty solid Guardian remake here.

Best I've seen so far anyways.
Yep but there are some problems for my taste, some parts are too dark and in the video it seems like you can't throw grenades the lift up, they get stuck there in a loop. Also I think you can jump the golden lift down.

Yup. And you save so much money by cooking for yourself.

Yep, and I hope he works out or something.
Cooking is fun and you learn really cool stuff.

Cooking is fantastic. I really only started doing it for myself like 2 years ago, but I love it. I got sick of eating at the school cafeteria after a year of it. Blegh. I cut back pretty much completely on fast food as well. I cook almost all of my meals.

I can cook well enough. But even the best chef wouldn't be able to make stuff with no ingredients, no cookware, and no money or means to get that stuff.

time to start saving, buddy!
 
Why is this even a thing the engine can do

ps. i'm eating an entire 10oz bag of spinach to counter the diabeetus in here

I think and this is just speculation that it's the effect that gets applied to the flood models (it nulls the armour) but its being applied to the standard spartan IV model
