Halo |OT10| The Calm Before The Storm

Can we use the skins on whatever armor we want or are they exclusive to an armor set? Hope I can change the helmet at least, I might as well run around looking like Spider-Man.

The skins work sort of like attachments in Reach. Each individual armor piece has one or two skins that go with it.

See here.

Hey guys, I'm from Portugal

How do I get this double EXP other fans are getting?

Thank you 343

If you're being serious, nope, US & Canada only.
 
With sprint. I know they put stopping power in Halo 4, but I haven't seen any videos were it actually comes into play. Now if they made the stopping power akin to Gears 3, where you essentially slow down to a crawl and walking is faster when being shot. I'd be slightly ok with it.

I just don't like sprint, at all.

The stopping power, IMO, should slow you down to walking speed (which is what I think is does from the vids I've watched), nothing less because you're still in the Sprinting animation, there's no reason to make you even slower than walking speed when you can't shoot.

It's really all about personal taste obviously, but in a game with fast kill times it's not much of a problem. Imagine CoD without Sprint? Sprint in Halo Reach was flawed because the killtimes were too long, no bleedthrough, no slowdown, etc., but hopefully Halo 4 doesn't have that consistent problem when you couple the improvements of faster kill times and the slowdown mechanic.

CoD 2 is the best CoD of all time. It doesn't have sprint.
 
Im actually serious >_<
I dont pirate games. Launch day is where its at.

Hes told all of this stuff to me on Xbox LIVE/MSN, I talk to him like everyday.

His nickname is Bobberson.

I like the part where you blurred out his GT in the picture, because that will stop any problems from occurring...

I meant MW when I said CoD with its barrage of different loadouts lol.. but I agree, it's all in your personal taste but I don't think that game would've hurt from Sprint either ;]

I'm sure you'd agree though that Sprint is much less detrimental to gameplay in a game with fast kill times over a game like Halo 3 or Reach.
 
I can buy a crapload of DEXP codes for out-of-US members if you guys want. I'd be pretty cool if I could get reimbursed through the game though. Say, 50 matches for the Locus helmet (provided the skin isn't the only thing pre-order exclusive) and 25 for an oceanic helmet. I'll be having a little ARG for a project of mine tonight and you can net some doubleEXP codes from that too.

Sounds like the dude had a wet dream

If we're on the discussion on Frankie dreams, I dreamt him and Kiki were at some event in the UK and I met him.

The only question I asked him was, well, it was said exactly like this: "Battle Rifle, five shots to kill or four shots to kill?"

I got a reply of we can't talk about that right now, turned into a nightmare.

What? I would ask Kiki if I could buy her a drink and talk about how badass her last name is. After that go out partying. Buck talking about vidya games.

Stinkles can entertain you BR freaks meanwhile.

I do agree with that. I just think most games play better without sprint.

I do wish Halo 4 had an option to turn sprint off, though

No space mop :( But, as the alcohol started to loosen us up, I jokingly did rub his head. He laughed heartily and asked what I was doing, and I said "I'm making a wish". The two others about lost it at that.

He better made a wish about the Skill Ranking System


I replied.
Lol You have a doppelganger who also loves Halo, knows everything about the leaks and has friends with 343 shirts, what now
