I'm really reaching with the first one, but god damn ti! Nothing stops this hype! Let's fucking do this HaloGAF!
 
Halo Xbox One I knew you were my Destiny all along...
too soon?

I wonder if grunts get a voice makeover all of a sudden? Surely there's going to be some recording sessions for a couple of lines?

Sounds like you're just bad with the DMR. doesnt make the game bad.

Sure perhaps, but I'm more referring the the DMR being inconsistent, which frankly I did a horrible job of trying to communicate.

I never had this trouble with the battle rifle in Halo 3, and it's frustrating. With the DMR, I'll run into multiple situations with the exact same person and sometimes I'll win, or he'll win, despite me out playing him most of the time.

With 3's BR, I'd get some shots to the head or whatever, maybe beating the opponent down when he AR/rushes me, throw a grenade, whatever. Whatever the case, I'm always in control of the situation. Whichever one of us controls the situation better should and does usually come out on top. That's how a shooter, or at least a Halo, game should be. With Reach's precision weapon, I might win, or I might not. In Reach, I'm not really in control of the situation. It seems very luck-of-the-draw.

I'll be the first to say I'm not the best at halo or any competitive fps, but Reach kept leaving me feeling cheated.

welcome! can't wait to read more!!!

I said I don't own reach, so therefore my experience (in multiplayer) is limited to the demo... Is that a problem?

I think in the back of my mind I was actually hoping somebody could tell me the real game is better than the demo...

Uhhh, there's a multiplayer demo for halo reach?

Um...yes. It's all one demo.

Wasn't Contact Harvest responsible for the infamous "tactical error" passage?

That book was amazing and then the sex scene happened. What makes it funnier is Joe went on the Bungie podcast right before and talked about how he wanted to avoid the harlequin romance stuff with his sexy times. And we got... what we got.

Lol. Relax. Joe is Senior Creative Director at MS Studios. He is not working on Halo, except to get donged on by me in SWAT.


And none more sleeps is unrelated to StatenGate.

To be fair, given the dude's voice that scene probably feels completely natural to him.

Any objectors will be met with nanomachine and "apropos cultural evolution over 500 years" justifications.

Ah yes, I'm booted after one betrayal after not having betrayed anyone for a good 5 games. Lovely. I don't get why kills made during a betrayal aren't factored into it to see how accidental it was.

Welcome to Reach!

I don't know what the exact cooldown is, but in Reach any friendly fire damage you deal is considered towards being booted, and it's persistent between games. You don't have to completely kill someone and get the betrayal announcement to have it consider you for booting.


Of course, there's what I suspect a bit of random weighting in there, so people don't know they can safely betray x number of times before they can be booted, hence why you sometimes get booted for the rare betrayal.

My feelings are so conflicted right now.



I has simple question. Is none more sleeps related to halo for sure? And please tell me that "none more sleeps" is not true only on the condition that I keep myself awake for several days. That will be satisfactory.
