Well there's not much else to do on the internet.

You guys don't know how much you can accomplish with a ban. Productivity shoots through the roof.

You laugh and shake your head at the people taking it seriously.

Similar to any topic on religion, the GAF hivemind is a scary pathetic thing.

As I posted in that thread, I think that that mass reaction was more the result of reading that headline that implied it was forced on the kid/ an experiment by the parents than actual bigoty, especially as several of the posters who got banned are the ones who are cool with people who have gender identity issues. I know I probably would have reacted the same way had I not read the rest of the article.

I'm just used to people disregarding OPs when it comes to TG issues or gender equality a lot on this forum. Even people I think know better.

East coast represent, if I'm not up at 4, then I'm doing something wrong.

Maybe someday. Gotta add that notch to my belt. But like Ram, I pretty much just laugh and smh at OT with a little bit of disgust thrown in whenever you run into nasty or disturbing stories that always seem to get posted there.

Also just noticed that the OP lists Hang Em High twice and no Headlong in the CEA map list. And no Ghaleon to save us.

In all seriousness, who is posting the OTs for OT7 and CEA? Didn't ghal say Modus was helping with art again? Perhaps he should?

I wasn't sure if he was helping with the CEA OT or not.

Calm down. He's probably only been banned for a few days. No need to worry about other threads. He'll be back in time and if not things will be taken care of.

You are all thinking that this is his first time...

The thread is questionable. The bans are questionable, too.

Yep. I hope it isn't a month ban. :( He should post both OTs.

Whoa, I'm certainly calm. Someone mentioned a month which I assumed came from him.

My post certainly shouldn't have come off any other way than completely calm and reasonable. It's still a legitimate question.

Any 343 guys reading: After you added Stockpile back in to Objective, did the weightings for stuff like Neutral Assault and Multiflag change? They haven't been showing up at all. It's all been Flag Slayer, 3 Flag, Oddball, and Stockpile with some Classic/Pro mixed in.

This has been hurting my OCD for so long. I had no idea stockpile was back in... TO OBJECTIVE!

Also, up to date playlist... list? Ahem. Can't find it on bnet or waypoint.

I also need this one, does it mean you just need to collect one flag from every spot on the map? Or actually collect every flag your team gets to win?

Between that one and the "steal two captured enemy stockpile flags for a score" and "kill someone with a DMR from long range" I cannot finish off the MP achievements...

Ghaleon's banned? Now I've seen everything.


Are we going to be getting some decent/official gameplay footage from the new Hang 'em High (what's the new name again?) any time soon? The way things are going I'll probably stay away from Halo until CE: A and the new maps/playlists come out, but I could use something to wet my whistle (don't want to watch the Anniversary footage until I play the game. Seen too much already).

See this is one reason I've never bought the argument about Anniversary splitting the playerbase if it were to have classic multiplayer included. That's already being done plenty with Reach itself.

As mentioned you have 4 different permutations as is. Then with Anniversary you're really opening a can of worms.

You'll have:

Vanilla
Vanilla + DLC 1
Vanilla + DLC 2
Vanilla + DLC 1 & 2
Vanilla + Anniversary
Vanilla + DLC 1 + Anniversary
Vanilla + DLC 2 + Anniversary
Vanilla + DLC 1,2, and Anniversary

So that's splitting your playerbase a lot worse then just Releasing Anniversary with it's multiplayer included ever would have.

At least then you'd have:

Vanilla Reach
Vanilla Reach + DLC 1
Vanilla Reach + DLC 2
Vanilla Reach + DLC 1&2
Halo Anniversary Multiplayer

You'd only split the player base 5 ways compared to the 8 ways you will be with the way it's being done now.

But we have what we have.

It doesn't make any difference, because in one month the only thing I'll be playing is HALO ANNIVERSARY MULTIPLAYER. Fuck all that Reach noise.

Question for the firefight enthusiasts: is the Defiant map pack worth $5, just for the firefight map? There's a sale this week:

I'd say it's one of the top 3 or 4 firefight maps in the game.

Welp if nobody has any objections I'll be taking over OT7 and CE 2.0 thread duties, thanks y'all.

STFU kylej.

Actually I don't have any objection. Hope Ghaleon has a peaceful break. Hope it's a short one.

Speaking of warzone's have you guys seen the MP trailers for battlefield 3? Here, in case you haven't, will keep me occupied till anniversary hits.
Click to expand...
Every game needs base jumping in it, that is all.


Also I will probably end up playing BF3 more than Reach MP until Halo 4 hits lol

Regarding DLC and matchmaking in Reach.

We are actively looking at implementation changes we can make which will allows users with DLC to be more likely to find other DLC users for matches. It's always a touchy balance weighing specific options like connection speeds, dlc latency with the need to find matches quickly. Nothing specific to report atm, but just want to let you know (even from my hotel room at 1:35am in Spain) that it's something we care deeply about.

After so many years, Ghaleon is now truly a gaffer. I hope it's not a long one, anyone contact him on live and ask?

if it's a long one he can't stop OT7 from being created as Halogaf OT.. MUhahahahahahaHAHAHAH*cough* would suck about the CEA thread though, he was already working on it :(

How can you be a press guy in Europe for dummies:
Step 1: Create a blog at Wordpress
Step 2: Write about games reviews, news etc. Don't care about Grammar.
Step 3: ????
Step 4: Profit.

Ghal will be back 11.01.11
