Anyone want to play coop? We need 7 billion kills! I don't have a mic but I don't think that's much of a problem. Easy/Legendary, anythings fine.

But first, I have to drop a duece. BRB.
 
Awesome Luke, can't wait to see awesomeness in the very near future. Amirite?

That's right, massive leak is going to occur unless I get some... accommodations at an certain event coming up.

You have seven days to decide.


In other words, those were some decent games we played Ghaleon, the last one took long, but I like my 30 kills.

Dark Plantoid Rising eh? Damn Plantoids :p

I've noticed a lot of people using low number sensitivity levels. I actually use 6 myself because I've "outgrown" the slower speeds.

The one thing that sucks about low sensitivity is turning around (which is why I wish there was a button combo to do a 180, a la Resident Evil 4). But it's not really a big deal.

I'm confident Gearbox can make a very good multiplayer for Halo.

It's the single player I worry about, but things can surprise. :P

Any Halo game not of Bungie's direct making is dead to me. *cuts self*
 
Okay, so I got out of the level "Halo" and took a couple of pics. I will post these in the screenshot thread.

Here are some of the Ark. Surprisingly, even outside the level, the Ark is quite detailed.

And, I don't know how I got here, but I did something and I got to these weird pictures of the Ark and what I think is Installation 04 blowing up.

Very strange. And I'm not sure what this thing is suppose to be (light source?) but it was behind the Ark.

I'm amazing.:D :D Enjoy the pictures!
 
3-Ball Double EXP weekend was a lot of fun. I love Oddball and it's a shame that I never really got to play it in matchmaking until now.

Some of the gametypes were kinda hit and miss (3 Low is confusing for a lot of people, other maps such as Foundry and The Pit have 'cheap' hiding spots), but I hope it'll return in the future.

You used a process called "pan-cam" which has been heavily discussed in this forum already - as well as every other corner on the internet. Halo is one of the easier levels to break out of and thanks to its cache of five separate skyboxes (due to the five separate skybox sequences within the level), it's easy to show off.

Now, do this one:



...it's just a bit tougher. ;-)
 
I've always loved Halo's skyboxes. I guess that's one bad thing about Cold Storage being inside.

160 Million left on the count. Not bad guys, just hit my 10,000th kill last night. I really think it's attainable at this point.

It is bad, actually. We killed less over each day of the weekend than on each day of the past week. We needed to catch up, not fall further behind. When Luke first posted about this, we needed 17.5m kills per day. We've done about 14.5m each day since then, and now need about 23m/day to reach the goal by the end of Bungie Day.

It's so not going to happen, especially with the July 4 holiday in there.

Let me be delusional. I'm going to still keep trying.

Believe.
 
:(

I guess I won't be contributing to the 7 billion kills anymore (although I haven't really made that big of a contribution so far)... my Xbox just lit up with three pretty red lights.

:(
 
oh noes we didn't kill the virtual bad guys how will i live my life now with a road that is not set?! *sobs violently, cuts wrist and posts on bunge.net*

didnt realise it was only a week untill bungle day

They're saying that someone just modded a map and renamed it to Cold Storage. I don't think anyone has the map yet.
But if you look the source map is 'Secret' and it has that same picture.

Also, 7 Days until 7/7! :D
 
Blueblur1 said:
The start date is now July 6th. It looks like they got their act together. Holy shit...

Count me in as a sub or if you're looking to replace someones. I'll try to get some more practice in this week, before then.

I'm ready to go coach put me in there!:D

It doesn't really matter anyways.

Download this map variant.

This way, when you download Cold Storage, you'll already have a map variant to toy around with!

Even if the guy does have the map, it's obvious you can't play the map variant if there is no map to download.

I'm definitely considering changing the line-up. I'll let everyone what's up soon.
 
Wow, this thread is dead today. I've been sitting in the office and meandering around all day because there's nothing going on here.

So, uh, here's a vid Urk uploaded for me. It's probably the only cool thing I will ever do so I'm proud of it. Hurr it is.

i use to have mine set higher too..then i read that issue of egm back when H3 launched.

they interviewed some tournament winners, almost all of them have their sensitivity set at default. I found that odd, but ever since i set my sensitivity back to default my sniping skills improved same with the rate of success with BR stand-offs. (jumping headshots)
 
Man, I was pissed when I saw that you were an Elite, Eazy makes me want to break my disc in half in customs. :lol I shot that motherfucker 7 times with no shields and he just lived!

Fuck off. :lol

Four of us should try that all skulls/legendary bullshit sometime tonight. :lol I can't imagine getting 4 people through some of the vehicle sections without dying though, so the one that restarts the level might have to go, even though that is the toughest skull.

Seriously, after watching those all skulls videos I've been wanting to do some hardcore campaign. Count me in, I'll be one of the elites :P


I've been sitting in my office bullshitting with my office-mate for 5 hours and I'll be sitting here longer so I can get my 40 hours in while taking the 4th off. I feel so useless.
This must be how Metroid feels all of the time :\

At least you get to sit down, lazy-ass. I'm on my feet for a solid 8 hours a day.
Choke and die.

Ram, as long as Domino is _NOT_ allowed to drive any hogs, I wouldn't mind if I'm on, or whatev.

So now it's my fault for being so awesome as to land a job with the DOE?
Burn alive.

I'm pretty psyched to get tossed around by the A.I. Gunna be outta here pretty soon.

I <3 you Thermmy, though my luck against you will never run out. :D

A man can hope, right? *hopeful face*

If there's room, and you all would have me, I'd totally like to play through some Campaign, with all the skulls on, with you guys. :)
 
Speaking of the BR, I played some Social matches on a friend's box yesterday. Surprisingly, I got a rampage with the weapon
Could it be that I don't suck as bad as I thought?
.

Suffice to say I don't get the talk of "the random spread that robs you of kills".
 
I just found out that you can get the plasma combo bonus in campaign by using a power drainer and finishing with a headshot also.

Also I'm loving my return home to a better connection. I can already tell I am getting host much more and lag much less often.:D
 
Posted in the online thread too, but since that's been 4-shotted, is anyone else having problems getting stuck at "game starts in 0 seconds" for matchmaking?

Before or after finding other players?

I just got into a game.

That happened to me today. It happened after I quit out of a custom game. All I did was sign out and then sign back in and everything was fine.
