Oh my.
Nice weekly. I'm back enough into Reach that I'll hit it, which will put me to Forerunner. Woo-hoo.
Remember this awesome/hideous Easter egg from standoff?
His face was also in Halo 2 on Containment's Halo ring:
Now I'm going to be looking for faces in Destiny's skyboxes. Anyway, I just spent 5 hours straight trying to get and finally accomplishing getting a huge milestone in my coding contract done, so if anyone is up for working on the weekly, I'll be on tonight.

Nah, Halo 4 is a AAA video game, and not even the biggest one on the slate for this year. I think it's reveal will be pretty much what you expect. Dreamcrusher.jpg

Really? I like David and all, but bringing on a new designer at this stage seems very odd? I would assume at this stage they are tweaking whats already been designed and even I would wonder why they would need to bring someone in to help with that.
/conspiracy theory stuff. Congrats David!

Tweaking is probably a good way of looking at it actually. A lot of the systems are there, now it's balance etc. In all the different modes, whatever they've got cooked up, needs a lot of work.
Tis normal enough, just like they brought on/are bringing on a new level designer. David was probably contributing to Multiplayer stuff already (I certainly got that impression), this just makes it his main duty.

Fast shield recharge time please. After playing some 3 and then returning to Reach, you really notice how slow your shield recharges.

To be fair, other than the occasional peep regarding a Sparkcast, we really didn't hear much of David's day-to-day (at least after Waypoint got a lot quieter). His occasional post gave me the impression of being involved in playlist decisions but other than that we really didn't know a whole lot.
This was along my lines of thought... most the toys are there... now it's about putting them together in the best way possible? From the posts here, and bits of conversation snatched in game with David... I like it.

I'm trying understand the benefit of announcing that you'll be the guy responsible for Halo 4's multiplayer. Shishka and Jeremiah would like a word.

Unlimited group hug offers?
Lot of sweet community content made to show player's appreciation of your hard work?

There is a pretty large team already in place that I'm joining. Just another cog in a well greased wheel.

Will you become my new Chris Carney one day? I hope so David, I hope so.
Anyway, Bobs, on SSX demo, have a look at video 2, under the online features option. Does as good job a explaining some stuff.
Yeah but you know who's head they'll come for!
Im trying to get you to say something along the lines of: "Halo 4's multiplayer will be the best thing you've ever seen. I want people to know I'm involved.

About SSX, I'm coming for your score Elzar! I'm slowly creeping up; I've already defeated Andy, Hitmonchan and wwm0nkey.

Yes, I saw it, 2.06, that game is pretty damn competive, and thats just from playing against ghosts in the demo.
If you beat me, I will be ashamed, if you beat Bobs, I will be amazed.

Yeah this does make a lot of sense, I always assumed though that the original designers would do the tweaking, I guess theres a lot of content to tweak.
In the middle of the night, on the last night before content lock, comment out any armour ability code. Increase jump speed and movement, and if your not personally able to intergrate a BR in one night, buff the Pistol damage settings. A certain Halo 1 designer did just that and it lead to a fantastic game. I will paypal you 5 dollars if you make this so.
No but really im extremely glad to know your in that role, you probably dont agree with everything Gaf generally says but its nice to know someone in that position is also reading stuff here.

Ill check that out! Im pretty hyped for the game now.
Yeah its crazy, like 2 days ago that was the score to beat lol! Kinda impressed Rob hit it so quick after getting the demo.
I'm personally hoping it'll be less of the stuff you just listed and more like a PSP SOCOM game.

Don't pay attention about that. This is just a footage we took and we modified from a student movie with friends when we were working on Halo Anthology fake Vidoc. =)
Some folks will understand.
