Depends on if they only offer it once the game has launched and been out for a while like KZ3.
If they were to do it too early, I know a lot of people who wouldn't bother with Campaign, and only get MP.
If they do it now, I think we would see a decent increase. It would be awesome if getting the $10 pack let you use the Reach maps with the Anniversary disc.
Edit: Sorry for the DP, I meant to edit my other post :/

Urban Dictionary is a bonafide morning blowjob virgin confirmed.
Which only makes me wonder even more. Why didn't ODST have expansion?
I understand what you're saying... but you also understand what I'm saying.

That's not DLC.
Should have been something like GTA expansion, still a great game though.
Are any of you on now still? I sent a few more FR from last night out...and..even you..Frankie.

Had fun playing Reach with ye tonight. Won't be a regular thing though, just was spurred on Over's Sanctuary remake.

Matchmaking should be the priority...well to this point in Halo, the MP DLC has had very little integration in matchmaking.
I thought that was interesting. Seeing as Halo's investment system doesn't actually unlock any in-game things, don't know how effective it would be. Wouldn't be a bad idea to try out at this point in Reach's life though.
If was originally going to be.
And to comment on Cyren's post, GTA IV is how you do some damn DLC. Sogood.gif
I am so terrible.
epic.

Well yeah, but in the end it wasn't. I'd wager something like the ODST we got being too large for DLC and too small for a full priced $60 game if it didn't have Halo 3 Mythic.
Weren't the GTAIV episodes pretty much just stand alone games that didn't require GTAIV? At that point does it really still count as DLC beyond technicalities? Not that I have anything against this approach. If ODST was digital download only without Halo 3 Mythic I'd have been fine with that, but it would still pretty much be it's own thing so I'd question why it'd be considered DLC.

You had to have GTA IV, and they were tied together through the plot as well.
I would.
You could purchase the two DLC separately at retail.

Yeah that was later though.
Microsoft wouldn't want to do it unless they could include it with new copies of Crackdown 3, because any DLC after the first two packs always has to be tied into a "marketing opportunity" instead of you know, giving the playerbase already playing the preexisting game a steady stream of content. Meanwhile, Gears of War gets more steady content releases than their own flagship series.
And Halo fans get more than half their multiplayer DLC as.. remakes of maps from previous games.

It should replace Asylum immediately, don't even test it.
I haven't played it yet (when I get home I will jump on to have a look), but it looks very promising. I would love 343 to replace Asylum with it if it is as big of an improvement as it looks.
Any framerate issues?
Some random bits of data from HaloGAF users* on this list. The least accurate player is Fuchsdh with a headshot percentage of 57% over 312 competitive games played. The most accurate is bananas with 93% over 615 competitive games played. HiredN00bs has the most games played with 7752 competitive games played. Awesome Barlow has the highest headshot rate** with a sniper rifle at 69.7%. The gaffer we don't want to give a sniper is Deputy Moonman, who has only a 42% chance of hitting the head with the long rifle. On average HaloGAF finishes 74.24% of their headshot capable weapon kills with headshots.
Judging by the data collected so far, the game registers headshots pretty well. Shadow really shouldn't have argued that it was the games fault when his accuracy with generic headshot weapons was only 69.5%, a good 5% lower than the HaloGAF average.
*I've only been able to aggregate data for letters A-H so far. I'm working on getting the rest, but my API key bugged out around gui's gamertag.
**There is one gaffer(Dark FaZe) with 75.9% sniper headshot rating, but he has less than 150 games played, which is far below the standard.

These kinds of stats are realy interesting. Would be interested in seeing more random stats.
That isn't Mountain Dew Voltage.
Somebody dropped this off for me as a present today
LET'S DO THIS
I'm going to be awake for the next 4 days
Ah yes, Mountain Dew Jizz Out.
I've been knocked out on this greatness for the past 2 days.
What other types of stats would you guys want? Currently I'm only gathering that of headshots and games played.
It doesn't even taste like grapes!

Cheap Squirt knock off, doesn't even taste as good! The only Mtn Dew worth drinking is the original, all others can GTFO.

Hah. Crazy King was less brutalizing.
Domino Theory
Crystal Dynamics
Yeah, unfortunately it never seems to not make big parties not lopsided in matchmaking games. Also, the game shafted you on that Crazy King game, it basically kept giving us new hills five feet away from each other.
Been a while since I had to decode a triple negative.
Caffeine does that to me

Shat on Fyrewulf's AR a couple times, was nice.
Fun games folks.
Unfortunately, the game doesn't seem to know what to do with a large mix of skill levels in a split party. It likes to stack the deck for one of the teams far too often. Putting me, Devo, Cyren, and kittens on the same team in that Hill game probably shouldn't be happening. The last game, Breakpoint Bomb, was much closer since it spread people around, even if it was a little boring and uneventful.

I agree. It fixes all of Asylum's problems, and looks nicer too.
Also, great games tonight, guys!
