I'm pretty sure that wasn't him playing the voodoo devil.
Halo Bulletin Episode 2

aka: Halo bug report and release schedule revamp.
If that's what Kamp was referring to that's kinda lame. Good to hear they're focusing on improving the MCC at least.

Where is Dax? Haven't heard from her in a while.
Not sure, but boy was it awkward to see Marty O'Donnell accept the award for Best Score for Destiny, after being fired.

It was more awkward to see them use the main stage to give an award to Total Biscuit, a guy who has contributed nothing to the art form and didn't even show up, but then give Marty his award coming out of commercial break somewhere between the bathroom and row 107.
The music is pretty great (I know because I'm sitting at the Destiny menu screen because I can't login to my profile - because Xbox Live is down - hooray for always connected bullshit games).

I think she's spending her time in the Destiny OT. Haven't seen her post since I dropped my sub there.
Kampf teased something prior to being banned*, but nothing official.
*Do we know why, btw? Is it the teasing thing? I didn't mind it, but it was getting a little bit much towards the end there.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IjL2KUPnTHc343 would never gimp their asinine bullshit like that.
He isnt the only one that should minimize the posts.
Do they stop forward momentum? or if you get hit in the back does it increase the forward momentum because its adding its momentum to your forward momentum?
also, While people are growing tired of sprint Discussions; and 343 essentially telling anti-sprint fans to shut the fuck up because its still in. the fact that we are STILL having to defend our positions against sprint in the game is fucking ridiculous.
I wonder if hacks like this actually hurt the companies or just annoy the consumers. Serious question - does Xbox Live being down for 1-5 hours really hurt the bottom line for Microsoft?
All of Xbox LIve seems to be down - good luck with MCC (although at this rate MCC would probably work perfectly while every other game is offline).
Something is working tonight.

Six matches in a row so far, with about 50 seconds tops wait time between matches.
Joy to the world!

Always Online is evil and I hope it dies in a fire. There are very few games that justify its use and Destiny isn't one of them.
I'm playing it now...

It's not terribly hard to take down, I've killed it with every power weapon on the map, snipe, shotty, and rockets. And most idiots let you jack it anyways. But my experience is mostly from FFA so the banshee isn't always focused on me.
Honestly I like the revision with Zenith, that shield in the middle really does help moving around the map. And so many people will just run in while you sit on the other side with shotty.
Ditto, I'm not having much trouble tonight.

Looks like the Video Game Awards show is still the best cheeze tasting convention around.
Doritos promotions and Mountain Dew ads for everyone.

Perfect
This is Frankie's pre-recorded message before launch to all of us who purchased the broken MCC.
Technically we still have Saturday and Sunday depending on your idea of when the week ends. Either that or Kamp really overestimated how much we'd get out of this.

"Halo to go to Playstation."
That mid week patch that fixed the game, duh.

Could it be that that's because they really didn't know? Like... they've been saying? I'll freely admit that I don't know how it'd be possible, but I don't think we should discount the possibility out of hand.
I'll buy that they didn't expect issues on this scale but I don't believe for a second that none of this showed up in playtests. The game is fundamentally broken; we saw it in all the pre-release tourneys, etc.
lol ramen
I would never be able to play Halo as well with that controller.
Put it on EBay, or B/S/T, not like it'd be that much of a loss if you're that bothered.

But that's the thing; AFAIK, we didn't see issues of the sort we're seeing now. Dropped connections and some other general sketchiness, but nothing like what we got on launch day. Maybe there really was some sort of fundamental flaw with their testing process.
I love this thread.
Saw what? A few disconnects? (granted it was over LAN which is laughable)

The funny thing is, even when I get unbalanced teams I still usually end up with a nail-bitingly close score in the end. Seriously, some of the most intense TS matches I've played have been when I'm down 1 or 2 players. Objective is another story.
Not that I'm excusing uneven teams in the lobby, it should definitely be fixed. Hopefully early next week, we'll see.
