The Windows Live cookie/session blows and is buggy. When this happens to me I reset my browser making sure cookies and cache are checked. Then I'll close and relaunch the browser.GhaleonEB said:
Though lately when I go to xbox.com in Safari I get stuck in an endless loop where it tells
me my session is expired. Blurg.

Wait, we play customs at 5 PST on saturdays?
Looks like I'm blocked out of bungie.net.senador said:
I've tried deleting all b.net and xbox.com / live.com cookies, signing out and then into xbox.com, restarting the browser with everything deleted, clearing all cookies, the works.
B.net asks me to sign in, and when I click the sign in button, I get the white screen asking me to continue. I do, and I'm back to the front page of b.net, still not signed in.
If I clear cookies, I can get to the sign in screen. But once I sign in, I'm back to the front page, not signed in.
Aggravating. I'll try again tonight.
I'm on the latest Firefox, FWIW.
A few more things...GhaleonEB said:
1. If you have any windows or tabs open that are using the Live ID it should but may not clear the cookies. I'd close all windows for good measure.
2. If you are clearly manually you may have missed oddly named cookies. Clear all if so.
3. "Have you tried turning it off and on again?" No but seriously. Also try closing all windows/tabs, clearing cookies, close FF, then restart the machine.
4. What Blinding said. You could login at live.com or xbox.com first then head to bnet.
Hopefully one of these helps. Sorry man.

I get the same problem sometimes. I think that windows live sign in is just not fully compatible with the new firefox. Hopefully it gets fixed soon.GhaleonEB said:

I know you kid but you really are right. That's just one of many reason's I hate freaking armor abilites. Map's mean shit anymore because oh look at me. I don't need to use ramps, hallways, etc. I'll just go UP UP and AWAY!! WOOOSH!
Dear Hitmonchan/Louis Wu,
In the following headline(?) you say to mute your audio. Is someone not a fan of Justice? Personally, I'd love to see more montages using Justice music.
Sincerely, Karl

BTW, That was a pretty sweet montage. I don't know how you guys can dig up with so much Halo stuff in a day, and I do thank you guys for doing it.

and then proceed to rain grenades. It is a point I agree with, but I'm tired of the whole debate so I wanted to make it lighthearted.PsychoRaven said:

Pretty sure this was a glitch, but it looks like I threw the sword to myself.

According to the comments for the vid, the bit that pissed me off wasn't Justice at all - it was Intro by Oceana.Sai-kun said:Holy shit. Waters of Nazareth made that entire montage way more awesome than it needed to be. I wouldn't say muting audio is necessary, but it's not the kind of song you want blasting out of your speakers, unless you love it already like I do, lol
That was awesome.senador said:
And by the same stroke, Halo 3 and 2 are still in existence (even if matchmaking is no longer there for the latter). I don't know about you, but the thought of the series direction going forward being a colossal navel-gaze is not a pleasant one. Learn from the past, certainly, but don't idolize it.Letters said:

Use IE for anything to do with Live and you should be good.
No, it was Justice. The Cross album goes from one song to the other very well, and the song before it is named Stress so the transition seems stressful. I can understand muting at first, but after the part that pissed you off, it gets awesome. Another thing in that video that I thought was awesome was the player named #chromeo, which is another band I've been listening to lately.Louis Wu said:
This now has me looking for montages with Justice.
Botolf said:
I want new weapons, new vehicles, new maps. I want a better version of Forge. I like assassinations.
I want a refined version of equipment and armor abilities. I can think of many ways that a combination of Halo 3 equipment and Halo Reach armor abilities could be made fun. Rather than have them at spawn as part of your loadout, you pick them up (possible in Reach, but make this the rule, rather than the exception). Some are one time use only, etc.
Most importantly, I want the core gameplay to be fun. I can definitely imagine a mix of Halo 3, Halo 2 and Halo Reach being the most fun. Movement speed, jump height, vehicle health attached to player health, bloom removed, assassinations, a refined combination of equipment and armor abilities, etc.
Looking back at what was best from previous games and improving it is smart.
Do it 343.

How can anybody have a problem with soaring like a bird (*Return to the Battlefield*), bounding over obstacles (*Return to the Battlefield*), taking in the views and wide vistas (*Return to the Battlefield*), and landing as softly as a fallen flower petal?

because it destroys map flowNullPointer said:
dammit are we really starting this again?
I saw nothing wrong with Grav Lifts. Does pretty much the same thing as jetpacks in that it lets you access higher parts of the map, but they aren't permanent.
In a number of cases, certainly (remakes in particular). The reason I want to see it again is because of a fair degree of untapped potential, of which we only saw glimmers in Reach. In some BTB and campaign spaces designed with it in mind, it's a real joy and opened up novel possibilities and navigation. I'd be more than happy to see it included in a narrower fashion than here, as a situational feature for specific map types and modes, because that's where it shines to begin with.Letters said:

Oh I know. I know. But its damn fun. And handy at times.thezerofire said:
Moral of the story: Make better maps.
Because maps get fucked over because of it. Goddamn do I love using the Jetpack. It feels so good. But it makes map design irrelevant when you can jetpack everywhere. Remember the grav lift on highground? It let you leap right over the wall to the enemy base. With Jetpack everyone can breach based all the time ololololol.NullPointer said:

Armor Abilities would be much less maligned if they weren't available all the time for everyone. The jack-of-all-trades approach to maps and gametypes really needs to stop.Botolf said:
And if anyone who can affect change is listening, please find a way to make AA's pickups in Firefight. I can do well enough to go for a long time without dying, and it would be cool to be able to swap out Sprint for something else without having to suicide.

It's been three weeks since Dan Ayoub tweeted that the next Sparkcast was done, and it's been three weeks since David Ellis stipulated that we'd have to wait two weeks to get it.
Has anyone at 343i given an update on the delay?
