Support NeoGAF

[Willeth]

Ah thanks for the replies guys, ill be playing this wkd a bit then

Another random q, I was playing with someone in doubles, and we played these guys around our rank (35 or so), and we absolutely slaughtered them, must have been like bought accounts or something idk, and afterwards hes like 'prefer them! prefer them so we will maybe play them again'

basically he prefers ppl who suck, and avoids ppl who whoop us...does that actually work? Seems like it would backfire if you got ones you prefer in doubles who suck in ranked team slayer or something on your team, and vice versa...

Given the amount of people on Live, the avoid/prefer thing is weird. I've never run into someone I've avoided again, but then again I've never run into someone I preferred again either.

I suppose it works a lot better in games like Table Tennis when there's maybe twenty people playing it worldwide, though. And if you've decided that they're a dick when you've played them in Halo, you probably don't want to play against them in anything else.

I've actually run into a guy I've avoided. Once on Team Slayer and once on MLG. He sent me derogatory messages after each game. =/

We're all feeling the hype building up so now I present to you the ODST official thread banner. I used Urk's original Halo 3 banner as a template.

Spoiler

It's way too big and no I don't know how to make it smaller

 

[Striker]

Great video! Avalanche is my favorite Halo 3 Big Team map. That is mainly due to the awesome vehicular batttles and the Laser sparingly a huge force.

I'm on this bandwagon until we get some HL2: Episode Three media.

 

[SpudBud]

Tricia Helfer (battlestar galactica) voicing Dare in Halo 3: ODST announced on Spike E3 preview

If you recall, Dare was mentioned in one of the transmissions on bungie.net as an ONI officer who requested special troops from an Admiral of UNSC cruiser.

Sweet.

*edit*

The post regarding Dare:

http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=15547

Part of the text from that page:

[DARE.V.500341(S1)]: “Admiral, about my squad?”
[DARE.V.500341(S1)]: “I’ve forwarded their NCO’s name to your --”
[SMN.ACTUAL]: “Enough, Captain!”
[SMN.ACTUAL]: “If I survive this attack..."
[SMN.ACTUAL]: “I will deploy per my orders from Fleet HQ!”
[DARE.V.500341(S1)]: “Sir. I don’t report to Fleet.”
[DARE.V.500341(S1)]: “And the men I want? Now they don’t either.”
[DARE.V.500341(S1)]: “Please. Read my request.”
[SMN.ACTUAL]: “Didn’t think you S1 types ever left your cave.”
[DARE.V.500341(S1)]: “Desperate times…”
[SMN.ACTUAL]: “Alright, Captain. You’ve got your squad.”

Also Geoff Keighley tweet mentions it:

I talk about her some in an AJ article, too.

More info on her (from the article linked above, quoted from GI):

“What the hell kind of armor was she wearing?” asks an Orbital Drop Shock Trooper in regards to a new female soldier who recently arrived on the ship.

“I don’t know,” says another. “Wasn’t looking at her gear.”

Mickey, Dutch, Romeo and Buck are doing their best to distract themselves before the big drop. After some chiding, the squad gets their straight-laced commanding officer to give up the woman’s name. “Ms. Naval Intelligence, our new boss,” he scolds. So check your mouths, find your chairs, and get set for a combat drop.” [Game Informer, December 2008]

I tried to find a good helmet shot to do it with...meh

Marty has switched from a mullet to a mega-beard. :lol

And thanks for the fix Tashi, I'm loading up Photobucket nao.

Cool thanks! I'd read that a while back, but it's good to re-read it and especially the game informer text.

 

[Deleted member 21120]

Yeah, Marty's head doesn't really work well with the helmet...

Alternate version, though:

 

[Thermite]

I tried to find a good helmet shot to do it with...meh

:lol :lol :lol

Good stuff.

 

[SpudBud]

I'm not sure...

Thanks for the photoshops guys but maybe I should stick with normal Marty.

 

[Self Induced]

This is a bandwagon I can totally ride.

Somebody give Charlie an ODST helmet.

 

[backflip10019]

So.... Tricia Helfer in ODST: discuss. (Source: GTtv on Spike)

Spoiler

I've got a bonerrrrrrrrrrrrr

Edit: Maybe I should learn to read. I'm mad late on this one. Oh well, Tricia Helfer is still mad hot and worth mentioning.
