Just picked up CEA. The first thing I notice during the very first intro piece is the stuttering lololol.

Hey Ghaleon, want me to mail this cardboard case cover to you for the kids? Send me a PM, bro.

Buy the maps or the game, both are worth it more than the other 2 DLCs combined.

I would have gone to the midnight launch and bought the game, but sadly being unemployed doesn't allow much for your gaming budget.

I'm just going to hang out in here for a while and live vicariously through people playing while I do design work instead of being on OT side right now. Can you guys still properly nade stuff on the remakes?

Yep, I noticed the Pillar of Autumn's cutscene was pretty bad. It may be my concussion, but I haven't noticed many slowdowns after that. The achievement lag is scary at 3+ seconds of freezing. I thought my game had froze when I got Grenadier the first time.

I noticed it in the intro when it's showing Silent Cartographer right at the very start. Chuckled a little bit, not gonna lie.

Didn't know Premuim Battle now requires ALL DLC instead of just Noble and Defiant. In game it says only Noble and Defiant, but the playlists page on Waypoint says the Anniversary maps are in the playlist.

Oh well, I guess it makes sense to make PB all DLC, but alteast update the in game description.

But I am glad they removed all non DLC maps from the playlist, in the future I will be spending alot more time in that playlist.

There are people who play the old CoD (4 and MW2) games and now say that the game has gone mainstream and it's not like it used to be. That's how popular that franchise is.

:lol

MW2 is the most bullshit game of all the CoDs. That's where it all started to go wrong.

Regardless of what we think of the quality of the franchise and that game, there are jaded CoD fans from 4 years ago. They're like hipsters.

I played the shit out of CoD4 so I can understand how fans could be jaded. I just don't know how those people could lump MW2 in with CoD4 since that's the game that started the downfall with all the bullshit perks (commando, wtf), killstreaks (nukes, what a joke), deathstreaks, akimbo shotguns and all other kinds of terribleness.

Probably just Infinity Ward dick ridin.

I don't get the weird Quick Play change (on beta dash), but "Halo: Reach Anniversary Multiplayer Demo" is selectable from your Games Library and it'll launch directly into the Anniversary multiplayer segment of the disc. For those that don't want to wait for the CE side to load up.

On Pillar of Autumn, when you get back to the part where you are looking at your "hushed casket," there's a room behind the viewing area that has your diagnostics up on a screen. Linda's are on a screen as well saying "unavailable" or "undetectable" or something to that effect.

Oh awesome, really hope Halo 4 goes overboard with the Easter Eggs, Reach was a pretty big let down when it came to that.

Haha I personally love iOS. I don't mind WP7 but it doesn't feel as clean as iOS. Android is just a mess. Such a splintered piece of software. Google tries to do too many things at once.

But iPad + iPhone + iCloud is awesome.

edit- had to turn rumble on to improve the pistol's feel on Classic playlist. Much better now, aural+visual feedback on that thing is so pathetic.

Also, by fragmentation, I'm talking about this:

Google needs tighten down on android, they are letting their platform get to big.

I can run any number of roms, and I can customize just about every appearance and function in the rom I'm running right now (CyanogenMod7). Fragmentation among devices means absolutely nothing to me and my device. I can get daily updates if I want.

Indeed, but I didn't have the tank the whole time. And my team was also trying to kill me, I did mention that!


I haven't REALLY played in over half a year.

Party pooper. :(

Not knocking on the OS itself. Sounds like everything is great for you. I'm no Apple fan boy, I just enjoy their mobile experience more than others. I see the merit of Android, I'm just not sure about the execution.

I think you're going to have to clarify a bit, because Reach has the best Easter eggs out of all the Halos. Pelican on New Alexandria, Banshees on The Package, Tribute room, and I'm sure there's other stuff I'm forgetting.
