Kind of reminds me of something from Myst or Riven.

Customs were fun, even though my team lost almost all of the games. Ram is the new power weapon.

So, I made four clips from the custom games last night.
Fancy - Total apparently gets confused when you jump around a lot.
My Best Snipe in Halo 3 - Yeah, it was complete luck, but I'll take what I can get.
Teasing Penguin - I set Ghal up for a kill without even knowing it.
Thread Needles - Probably the highlight of all my Needler use last night.

No render minutes, so you'll have to live with self-captured footage. At least it's Flash.
So close...

How come I'm always getting sniped out of vehicles?Dax01 said:
I took about a month and a half break and I guess that enough time to lose your skill.Deputy Moonman said:
Just added you back though I plan on playing much more frequently now. I had to defriend some people to make room for new juniors and you hadn't played in awhile.

If you get sniped by me, of all people, out of a vehicle, you know you got a problem.vhfive said:How come I'm always getting sniped out of vehicles?
It's like they were purposefully fucking with you.:lolLouis Wu said:No render minutes, so you'll have to live with self-captured footage. At least it's Flash.

Also, I forgot to mention that this was my favorite game of last night. I got no kills but two of the three flag captures. That takes some serious skill.

So I just beat Halo CE for the first time, except from the library I thought it was amazing. Should I play Halo 2 now ?
The Librarian
Banned
Yes, yes you should. Ghal will disagree with this, but just expect it to be worse than the first game.LordPhoque said:

I missed customs night! I want to play some Halo again sometime soon.
Looked like a blast.

On a Saturday night, message somebody from GAF that you see online playing. Dani (GT: Slightly Live) and vhfive (same for GT) are usually the organizers. Check this thread, also:Schmitty said:

Wanted to play customs last night, but my little brother had the Xbox tied up for 3 hours while he was marathoning to 70 in MW2. Looks like it was fun.

Was watching the Reach ViDoc again this morning and I think I noticed an Engineer on someone's monitor. I noticed pink looking floating tentacles that I hadn't noticed before so...Looks like Engineers might be back for Reach. News to me at least.
i thought you were going to get it right away then your teammate betrays you.:lolbig ander said:

I just really hope they redesign the engineers function in Reach, hopefully they will be unshielded at the very least so I dont need to carry a Plasma pistol around 'just in case'.
But seriusly Engineers just wernt much fun
GhaleonEB said:
So that's what happened :lol I had been at the other end of the teleporter and saw the Hornet pickup the bomb, so I headed back through the teleporter, clutching my RL with its lone remaining rocket, thinking "I can't blow this shot, or we lose the game." So of course I blew the shot :lol

That doesn't look like Isolation at all.Stormtrooper30 said:
I actually had the better chance to stop it - had I not wasted both my plasmas, I'd have stuck the Hornet when it was parked for pick up, instead of just dropping one guy with a frag. Though the rocket didn't help, of course. :lolOozer3993 said:
All through that game I was wondering what kind of BTB shenanigans Reach would have. I hope fall damage isn't in - the epic man cannons alone have been very good for memorable incidents.

There better be mancannons in Reach. I'll be severely disappointed if there aren't any.

The only similarity in those pictures are the rectangular protrusions coming out of the wall. Other than that, it doesn't look like Isolation.RotaryAce said:

Is this what you saw?
Looks like it's in the 'Isolation' map from Halo 3.
It could mean a number of things, we'll probably have to wait for some more pictures or videos of Reach to confirm that Huragok are in it.
That's not Isolation. Definitely not. That looks like the testing arena Bungie uses for tons of stuff. It's been seen in the H3 vidocs. There was one part of an H3 ViDoc where they showed a Brute in the same looking arena.
edit: I checked and I guess it's not the same place, but it looks like it. The picture with the engineer just has those extra walls. *shrug*
