Guys, tomorrow is the last episode ever of my Soap, feels bad man.

God, I hope you are referencing something...

 

[Tashi]

If you wanna do it gracefully, wait until the Halo 4 thread is moved to community by Evilore. Whenever that is, the next thread after 20k should be HaloGAF OT 1

 

[Trasher]

OT8: No one plays this game; everyone knows how to fix it

Yeah, I guess that makes the most sense.

Also: Just hit Legend rank in Reach! Only 1M cR till Mythic, woooooot.

Edit: Totally off topic, but holy shit, look what I just found: Greensleeves - viking metal version - featuring double neck electric ukulele.

So you can make campaign custom challenges for kills and medals and make about 3000 cR per minute with the Target Locater on ONI. Bungie puts multiple systems in place to preserve the game economy and 343 Industries builds tools to break it. Bravo.

Because it wasn't possible before to use exploits in campaign to gain credits? Because I've seen enough people grinding commendations in campaign. And honestly, is it that big of a problem?

3 000 cR is such a big deal when it takes 2 000 000 cR to level up...

E: even if it is economy breaking, the economy is based on aesthetics, not anything really worth anything.

 

[ElzarTheBam]

my February/March list is SSX, ACV, Silent Hill HD, ME3 and Max Payne 3

SSX is looking very amazing though.

Right on bro!

 

[kylej]

SSX looks pretty awesome. I find myself getting excited about games then when they actually come out I can't be bothered to buy and play them. Haven't even picked up Skyrim yet. Or Batman. Or Saints Row. Or Gears 3. Played about a half hour of the new Ass Creed.

I want to be 8 again.

Very true, my biggest gaming marathon was on Mario 64, played that for 13 hours straight when I got it.

Man, I remember the feeling the first time my dad rented us a 64 to test out before we got one for Christmas. Putting in Mario 64 for the first time was a freaking magical experience I won't soon forget.

Yep, deffo a magical gaming moment, aswell as 'landing on the ring' and exploring rapture. Those three have defined my gaming experiences.

I want Halo 4, my AssCreed/Batman/Skyrim/Saints backlog makes me cower when I look at my console.

Let's hope the thread gets peppered with Halo 4 news.

H4loGAF |OT| trollim fronkle

 

[Gabotron ES]

Halo: Reach |OT8| Now with 0% more Halo 4 news.

 

[The Librarian]

Not to be in favor of the HaloGAF OT idea, but the tag line could be "Reach for the Sky" if we decide to go with that. We have Reach in there, but "the sky" implies Halo 4 and beyond!

 

[monome]

Seing how impatient I'm getting for Halo 4, I'd rather have a generic HaloGAF thread.

 

[Homeboyd]

Halo: Reach |OT8| Now with 0% more Halo 4 news.

Actually, not a bad idea. Let's plan to update the thread title each with various disturbing facts about 343 exec's and team members and call them out each week they don't give us satisfactory Halo 4 news.

 

[The Real Napsta]

Why does it matter? We'll still talk about the same topics no matter what the name of the thread is.

Halo: Reach |OT8| We're on facebook!
Halo: Reach |OT8| Framkie nakes ganes mow

:lol I like the idea.

 

[ncsuDuncan]

Or what about:

HaloGAF |OT1| Reach, Anniversary, and Dark Planetoid Rising
HaloGAF |OT2| Reach, Anniversary, and Learning to BELI343
...
HaloGAF |OT5| Reach, Anniversary, and Waking Up John
(Or whichever one we're on.)

Then:

Halo 4 |OT| Dark Planetoid Risen
Halo 4 |OT2| Fronkie Saved
etc.

Until Evilore moves one to community. When that thread hits 20,000:

HaloGAF |OT6| Anniversary, Halo 4, and cliffhanger endings.
(Or maybe start the numbering back at OT1.)

 

[Captain Blood]

OT8: No one plays this game; everyone knows you fix it by playing TOR

But how did you know that? You haven't posted the last few hundred pages!

And the first 800 posts of the next one complaining about the name that was picked.

(inb4 the usual Halo 4 news complaints)

Dayum, nice credits!

Finished More than a Handful and Dedication/Time challenges on a game of Breakneck BTB - payout was 40k.

Nice! I really need to start paying attention to my credit payouts - I usually just skip that screen.

----
Blarg, I keep reading "Breakneck" and thinking "Breakpoint".

I wonder how much thought goes into naming maps - I'm sure there are a lot of factors to take into account: localization, marketing, etc.

Most of the remake names are pretty solid:
Prisoner - Solitary
Damnation - Penance
Timberland - Ridgeline
etc.

"Breakneck" just doesn't seem as natural a name for a "Headlong" remake. I guess there aren't a ton of synonyms for it - I wonder if "Reckless" was considered.

basically, any joke about Wu being old would work here.

 

[feel]

Makim Chicken is funny, make that the subtitle for whatever the next thread is called.

 

[GhaleonEB]

but if we do that we have to make a pact that these same people dont branch a halo 4 thread. having a reach AND anny OT was too much to keep up with. Just go to halo 4 when the thread gets there.

I'm going to shoot a PM to a mod and ask about this. My suggestion is the Reach OT's evolve into the community Halo threads until Halo 4 hits, at which point we have the Halo 4 OT. That way we have an official place to talk all things Halo (as we do now), until a thread the Halo community will migrate over to arrives.
