Oh fuck, you're onto me
FyreWulff's steps to throwing ragers into rage:
Identify if person is easily rageable via their voice chat output, wait until about 30 kills in. Teabag them after they die, even if I didn't kill them. Now they're fuming.
Now after each kill, continue to shoot their dead body with your gun. DMR has a nice effect for this. Now they're practically popping a vein through the mic.
For icing on the cake, kill them with a sniper rifle and then proceed to empty the clip steadily into their dead body. They'll go nuclear after that one.
I swear I've tilted games in our favor by slowly ramping up the mental warfare as it went on. teabag -> body punching -> body shooting -> cross map body shooting with the sniper rifle. If someone says something over the mic to you after you've teabagged them and they teabag you back, this will usually work on them.
I've spent too much time on this post. But tl;dr shooting someone's dead body seems to set people off.

Thinks the Evil Empire is just misunderstood.
True story, when using Promethean vision you emit a sound so people nearby know you're using it. On several occasions I tried to convince the audio team that sound should be dubstep.
Tajeen was not amused.

Tell him you have community support for your idea.
Do drops make a sound when you spawn near them? In Halo 3, when you spawned next to an OS or camo, you heard a BWOMP sound (the same one they normally made when they spawned).
Maybe a similar cue could be available to say "hey, you should check for a drop around here".

Actually, vehicles aren't such a weird idea. At least on big maps.

That would have been funny.

ok how can he even be alive still I read a bunch of stuff on Halopendia but still can't make since of that.

Unfortunately you are not the community.
Well that helps put it into context. I wonder what's in the drops then. Power ups/specializations?
So just be a jerk basically? You know, if this was certain other people they get ragged on, so you should too. Not cool.

Personal drops don't co-exist with Ordinance drops in the same match do they? It could make Certain Affinity weapon layouts seems like MLG Midship.
David, pls

Taking a video game this seriously...
I only do it to people that teabag me first (and repeatedly). I don't be a jerk to non baggers. Usually they're racist fucks on the voice chat as well.
If people don't teabag you, they're not affected by the teabagging anyway, so it'd be a waste of my time to try the tactic on them. I just like hearing obnoxious voice chatters get set off

By a pelican or just a big as drop pod. I can see a pelican hinder some gameplay actually.
Actually, I think we might have perfected it. You'll have to wait about 6 months to see for yourself.
Calling it now: you can tap a button over an enemy's corpse to launch your codpiece into their face.
That's a good point on the Concussion rifle and knockback, I'd definitely make that a single weapon on the map and then two shotguns and two sniper rifles. Without any place to hide the shotguns should inspire less doorway-camping and the snipers should be fine as long as the clip size is down.
In terms of stickies, try two clusters of two and two with just one (and maybe drop it next to a weapon, something like the plasma pistol or needler if you use them) If that proves too much you can yank out the single grenades and treat them as power weapons.
If you've got it on fileshare, send a friend invite to Retrogames (I think we may already be friends though) and I'll take a look at it.
If Armor Lock is in, can you guys find a way to license the Most Annoying Sound in the World? That, or the Chocolate Milk kid screaming. Either way, the whiny little kid sound is appropriate.

you got a link the the description of the Librarian... or is it not good enough to bother with. I really hope they show what they really look like in halo 4.

Yep. I only mess with people who mess with me first, haha

Please bring back Halo 3's corpse jiggle. Please. This is very important.
Franklinator

Agreed. Corpse jiggle is the key to proper and funny tea-bagging.

I have a separate thing for GAF customs. I'll sit near the middle of the map and ping people with the AR over and over, so every time they kill me they can't resist remarking about the AR :lol
Hey, just figured if you or kyle posted that, it'd turn into a whole fiasco so he shouldn't be free of that either.
There's real people behind every controller...

I actually could care less and do crap like they myself sometimes. See above though.
Gotta try this.
Taunting people is useful. Once, in Halo 3, i t-bagged this one guy. A bit later i killed him again and t-bagged him. After that, he just keeps attacking, again and again, ignoring all others. I just keep killing him and t-bagging him... i had voices muted so i don't know his reaction but considering how badly he played and how obsessed he was on killing me, he must have been filled with rage.

Sounded crazy 'till you said that... Wow that would be awesomeness.

Do we need to break out the charts again?
Stop it.
I could care less about your charts, I told you guys already.
Hmm, i guess i'll make a few versions of the map with different weapon layouts.
That Plasma 'nade suggestion is a good one, i was going to add a couple of Plasma Pistols. So, 6 Plasma 'nades.
I'll send an invite. Your profile gives US as your location though, which tends to be inconvenient though, as i'm in Finland. That's, what, 7 hour difference?
Seriously, screw timezones, make the world one timezone. Some people have to become nocturnal but it ain't a big deal.

Will there be any coverage of these sessions? Live?
NextBox 720 should have a minimum of 4gb please.
Do you know when the video of them playing will be posted?
Would be nice to watch them play + commentary.

Nintendo in 30 mins wasn't it?
Cheers. Watching Gametrailers at the moment.
I wanna hear it but I don't know how serious I'll take all of it considering I'm a rare breed in the competitive community by liking bloom and sprint. Also, really want to know exactly how much play time they get.
neoism
Member
you still care a little
Pros like Sprint if it's implemented good, the new bloom looks and sounds a lot better, wait and see.
Just for MLG Anaheim from what I know.
Also MLG removed 4 teams from their Spring League for Halo Reach, stay classy MLG.

Yep me as well.
Campaign looks totes ridic. I haven't been this excited for a campaign since H3. I don't care if the enemies look like bionicles or kittens, they look fun to fight.
Spartan Ops looks awesome as well. Meshing a firefight like situation with campaign type scenarios and having new missions each week for free is crazy awesome.
But multiplayer is still iffy with me. I've gotten over the whole loadout thing, but I don't know about these personal ordinances and perks. The storm rifle also seemed really really powerful in the b-roll, especially since it's not a precisions weapon. I hope it was just an old build, or maybe only works that well in close quarters.
I guess we'll see today
But overall Halo 4 looks fucking awesome.

I'm wicked excited. Can't wait to actually SEE footage as well, don't feel like such an idiot for buying the gold membership for C-Bus anymore.
