I love the bitching about player variety, yet when Wu says something people come out saying that they would play that all the time. smh

If variety means Stockpile, Hot potato, Speedflag, Neutral Flag and 3-flag then no thanks.
Seriously? You can't see ANY other options than

2-Flag CTF ALL THE TIME vs Stockpile, Hot Potato, Speedflag, Neutral Flag, and 3-Flag ALL THE TIME?

I mean, I understand hyperbole is your bread and butter... but geez. Wouldn't it be nice to actually have a CONVERSATION about what might work?

What? I'm saying that I'd rather have a limited amount of good gametypes than have a ton of them and have a lot of them be mediocre at best. I'm just naming the mediocre ones from Reach.

It's a scientific fact that the Dutch LOVE bread and butter as a snack.

See, what I'd like is a core group of solid gametypes, with some fun changes-of-pace tossed in occasionally for variety. (I wouldn't classify all the gametypes you've listed as 'mediocre' as mediocre, myself - but I WOULD say that they're better in moderation.)

In other words, I agree with you that the current mix of Objective options is less than ideal, but I disagree on WHY. (You think it's because there are too many mediocre gametypes; I think it's because the (not-mediocre) change-ups show up too often.)

Do you really think we're only extending invitations to NeoGAF?
So there isn't a Halo 4 GAF party in LA with free drinks and hot women in nothing but Cortana Body Paint server HaloCakes
Get on that 343, if you haven't already




Dat elitism :p
I'm more of a Spartan guy. Elite's hitboxes were all fucked.

PS. Can you guys disclose how old the build thats going to be at E3 is?

Power A? Nope. Low quality with even worse dead zones.

I had really hoped the Razer Onza would work out :( It was wonderful when it functioned correctly, but that only lasted for about a month.

Really? Maybe they've turned a new page with these, Kotaku seems to like them quite a bit, and noted the company brought in some Halo pros to help design.

I had an Onza too, it also broke, what the hell?

First vote option: CTF (mostly 2flag, some 1-flag)
Second option: Bomb (mostly Neutral bomb, some 1-bomb)
Third option: Turrible gametypes

Deal?

Why not mix it up? I'm good with those three options - but why not make their locations in the vote random? (You still have a 67% chance that 'core' types will show up in the #1 position, guaranteeing a win in the case of a tie.)

Well, it sure beats what we have right now.


Also, Robbert, people usually put something in between two slices of bread to make it tasty.

Doubtful, but you never know. I have yet to find a third party controller that doesn't malfunction shortly after purchasing.
 
So do I. Every one of my PMs has been about it. But multiple people suggested it'd get me in trouble. Didn't see any mods say anything, but still.
That's reason enough not to use it anymore, ugh. You could always ask a mod if it's okay to use, I wouldn't trust regular GAFfers to tell you one way or another.

you still wouldn't get laid
 
Maybe this was discussed and I missed it, but in that leaked video yesterday when the guy drops and takes damage, it shows a damage indicator right as he falls like he was shot from behind. Anyone think he possibly just take a shot from a sniper or something then? I know it's probably unlikely but I'm kinda just hoping. Don't want fall damage in this.

It's at 0:46 in the video btw.
