general-chat

[hearty flame]

Jorge and John are brothers that's why both their names start with Jo

[molten pelican]

shame it wasnt 7 but we make the most of what we got right

[copper meadow]

Guess Jun is forklift certified then

[hearty flame]

unironically he is

[near tree]

*half siblings

[molten pelican]

the lore would confirm

[hearty flame]

still siblings

[molten pelican]

blasphemy

Recharge I finally clicked on that link in your pfp and instantly regretted it

[near tree]

Would've been 8 if he was Forklift Certified

[hearty flame]

One of the portions of Noble 6's file that was covered in black ink was that he wasn't forklift certified, but the rest of the team was. The problem is that no one else got the chance to use a forklift to get off of reach.

[molten pelican]

very true

[hearty flame]

EXCEPT. Jun.

[molten pelican]

Jun was that guy

[hearty flame]

Further confirming that Jun was, in fact, forklift certified.

[near tree]

Just for fun?

[dry frigate]

It's to bad Chief doesn't even fight right

[molten pelican]

yes the only use for forklifts is fun 💯

[near tree]

That's awesome!

[hearty flame]

These days, being forklift certified pays, so if I can't immediately find work in my field, I still make bank

[dry frigate]

All he throws are Haymakers lol

[near tree]

Makes sense

[molten pelican]

HEY....hes old okay

[dry frigate]

true

but he should do a side kick a tornado round kick maybe a twist kick or a 360 round kick

or a a hook and a Jab cross Elbow uppercut hammer fist or at least something Martial arts

[fossil skiff]

He does a pretty cool backflip in the opening of halo 4

Which I think was a continuation of the trailer for halo 3 but I could be wrong

[molten pelican]

i could take him

[dry frigate]

I do Martial arts which is Karate and Taekwondo and Jujitzu combined so I know the moves

[near tree]

Not all of us have elites okay
Not sure how we could do all that with a single melee button

[dry frigate]

and I'm a black belt and Chief should be to

then he would like desrtoy the banish

[molten pelican]

Martial arts is not practical in real life fighting scenarios lol. so chief needs different training and fighting style

[dry frigate]

oops I meant Destroy

I have used it on a adult so

[fossil skiff]

I’m sure he could use funny moves but why when this perfectly good AR that I’m holding will get the job done faster

[near tree]

I guess maybe we could have a second button, and just have a bunch of combos
Rb+^ +holdrb

[molten pelican]

does roundhouse kick. chief grabs the leg and rips it off

[dry frigate]

no he twists his body to rotate his hip to get power and he hammer fists their legs which it breaks

[molten pelican]

I would hope twisting your body also rotated the hips

otherwise

[dry frigate]

and Chief needs to do a blood choke on the ?Blood elite

[molten pelican]

Chief should just box

[dry frigate]

nah

you can counter the punchs easily

[molten pelican]

Boxing/mma vs karate there is no competition

[dry frigate]

say

a boxer throws a pnch at me

[molten pelican]

you die

[dry frigate]

punch

[molten pelican]

Karate is like a dance, it works when you fight other people who are using karate, but the sparring isnt brutal and almost no full force contact, boxing is powerful and extremely brutal

[dry frigate]

no I do a middle block and then manipulate his arms then rotate my body to do a arm lock or I could do the Z bar lock on him or I could just swift to the left then do a Ridge hand to his throat

[molten pelican]

💀

[normal owl]

Armchair martial artist lol

[dry frigate]

and then do a blood chock which kills him no matter what in 8 seconds

[molten pelican]

heh, good luck in a street fight

[dry frigate]

my teacher was a Marine so

he's tough

[normal owl]

"If I was Mahomes I would've just thrown this pass and then--"

[molten pelican]

marines are very tactical with combat, they usually dont waste energy doing roundhouse kicks

[molten pelican]

fr

[dry frigate]

broke a guys nose for bullying and touching him in the Marines so oof

[molten pelican]

"if i was fighting dwayne johnson I would just punch him very hard he would die would not live he dies bc punch hard"

[raven hound]

These guys sound so tough let’s stroke our egos and talk about fighting

[molten pelican]

you broke a guys nose bc of bullying...?

[dry frigate]

no

[molten pelican]

I dont even fight but the imagination in his sentences are funny lol

[dry frigate]

not me himhe did

[fossil skiff]

._.

[raven hound]

Try and control anger… real anger, see how tough that is 🤙

[molten pelican]

what

[raven hound]

I’m out peace I’m prolly too old

[dry frigate]

no they got in a fist fightr bruh

[hearty flame]

try to control yourself when you lose in Halo Infinite

[molten pelican]

even harder a challenge

[molten pelican]

wut

[dry frigate]

and the other guy fought like Chief I guess with those haymakers and he didnt stand a chance

[floral pollen]

Meanwhile I'm outside bc my mom made me go outside

[dry frigate]

so his nose got broken thats what you get for picking on a guy and punching him

and starting the fight

[molten pelican]

👏🏻

[floral pollen]

And I have touched grass

[molten pelican]

very good

and you didnt break a nose!

[dry frigate]

A 10 year old

[molten pelican]

[dry frigate]

and he kicked his butt and the 10 year old beat him so that could save your life

[molten pelican]

[molten pelican]

master chief when is the next play

[molten pelican]

SAME

[normal owl]

You need to use a roundhouse kick while holding the shock rifle, everyone knows that.

[molten pelican]

and a blood choke smh

[fossil skiff]

Still wouldn’t make Reach good

[normal owl]

Hahahaha

[molten pelican]

you are just angry you arent forklift certified

[dry frigate]

what?

[normal owl]

Someone was bullying this 10 yr old, but they had no idea the 10yo was forklift certified.

[molten pelican]

oh snap

thats how he beat up that man in the bathroom

[dry frigate]

hmm laugh if you want but when someone comes to kill you with a knife don't blame me for not knowing what to do

[molten pelican]

forklift

[obsidian wyvern]

[molten pelican]

bruce lee

[fickle drift]

You're who I admire for loving Xbox

[fossil skiff]

Maybe we should have fired the Rings after all…

[dry frigate]

Jesus Christ is my king and Savior

[fickle drift]

[molten pelican]

jesus is not an idol. but Anywayssss

[normal owl]

literal lol

[fickle drift]

My only king and savior is mc

[dry frigate]

Go is Jesus

God

[fickle drift]

Masterchief more stronger Jesus

[normal owl]

Let's keep religion out of this, per #rules-and-guidelines

[dry frigate]

That's a good habit. I didn't do and now I regret it: am terrible with remembering names.

[floral pollen]

Lol
There is always time to learn to do that

[dry frigate]

so

[round laurel]

Who is Mike?

[floral pollen]

Aegis

[round laurel]

Is that Aegis' real name?

Oh lol

[floral pollen]

Supposedly

[dry frigate]

my gamertag on Xbox is MasterChief1663 and I made a couple of speech words on my post

[forest lagoon]

That's actually a pretty common name where I'm from. Not weird at all

[dry frigate]

ok

[round laurel]

Baptiste's bio makes me happy

[dry frigate]

understandalbe

[fickle drift]

Halo is the best fps

[molten pelican]

Slivinski Skoothrinili

[molten pelican]

bubby

[leaden juniper]

The Joker

[whole zephyr]

[floral pollen]

Hoi Sam

[dreamy stirrup]

[dry frigate]

my name means John in Enlgish and Hebew thats your finally hint

[smoky token]

Factual

[dry frigate]

give up?

[forest lagoon]

I bet it's Johnathon Halobiont

[dry frigate]

and no

[leaden juniper]

John 117

[dry frigate]

no

[forest lagoon]

Wow discord didn't load a lot of messages till just now

[smoky token]

Dolan Dark moment

[dry frigate]

ok

I'm just going to say it

[floral pollen]

Welcome the the future

[fickle drift]

Like John of paramount+ series

[dry frigate]

It's Zane

[whole zephyr]

Zane

[leaden juniper]

No way the green ninja????

[whole zephyr]

Oh you said it right when I guessed it

[fickle drift]

The squad of gears/gears of war and halo are better than all mandalorian

[forest lagoon]

One things for sure, you'll never guess my name

[leaden juniper]

Or white whatever it was

[dry frigate]

bruh

not everything is Ninjago

[leaden juniper]

Yeah bionicle was better anyway

[dry frigate]

I like Transformers

[fickle drift]

Honestly reactions of masterchief between playstation who say got kratos and licenses is indifference

[dreamy stirrup]

what

[leaden juniper]

Yeah beast wars might be good, questionable choice bringing bay back tho

[fickle drift]

Me too

[dry frigate]

wait Sam

Sam do you Work at 343

[dreamy stirrup]

what's 343

[fickle drift]

Can I do comparison foods

[bronze breach]

Maybe

[bronze breach]

My social security number.

[fickle drift]

If Xbox is fast foods and playstation gastronomical restaurants honestly I rather fast foods and Xbox

[round laurel]

What do you mean by this?

[hasty zinc]

word soup

[leaden juniper]

That's why I'm on PC

[fickle drift]

Oh

But Xbox and pc Microsoft should allies between playstation

[leaden juniper]

No that's their competitor

[round laurel]

They're already attempting this with the Xbox app.

[bronze breach]

Buy out playstation. Problem solved

[round laurel]

Please god no

[bronze breach]

[fossil skiff]

Brace yourself!

[round laurel]

I can't imagine a worse fate for gaming than Microsoft controlling everything

[leaden juniper]

No then we'd have excuses for more mid halo entries since there wouldn't be any competition

[leaden juniper]

Fr

[obsidian wyvern]

peaceweaver is wild

[smoky token]

As if halo wouldn’t still be in competition with COD or Battlefield?

[amber mirage]

I'm waiting for the next Killzone

[leaden juniper]

Almost like Microsoft was trying to buy out acti/blizz

Battlefield is a non issue after 2042 I don't think many have faith in dice anymore

[round laurel]

I'm hoping PS commit to a new Killzone this gen. Their lack of MP focused games make me sad.

[bold sparrow]

Odd that they havent tried that hard for it

[amber mirage]

Bungie's helping them cook stuff up for MP now.

[obsidian wyvern]

2042 has become a LOT better since launch from what ive heard

[leaden juniper]

PS has plenty of IPs they do nothing with, killzone isn't anything new

[smoky token]

2042 is a good game that I enjoy playing

I’ll stream some of it in a general VC sometime

[leaden juniper]

I think my issue is mainly the operators

[obsidian wyvern]

idk i found 2042 pretty boring when i played it

[leaden juniper]

Sort of an odd choice for a game environment of that scale

Yeah it honestly is boring imo also

[obsidian wyvern]

the beta was a mess, and going back to it a few months ago, i still found it boring

[amber mirage]

I started with BF3 and got bored of the series about three of there expansions in.

[leaden juniper]

Yeah basic things like mouse inputs and hit detection were busted on beta and launch

[bold sparrow]

2042 has all the same problems previous battlefield games have; if the enemy team knows how to fight you can get spawn trapped or worse really easily.

And vehicles can pick apart an uncoordinated team.

Call me back to it when Raos hack lets me detonate ammo stores inside a helicopters arsenal and the sorry pilots forced to fight on the ground with the rest of us

[round laurel]

Most Battlefields feel boring to me. In Battlefield 1 it was generally a 'tug-of-war' style linear battle between two teams which gave a bit more direction and purpose to what I was doing. I enjoyed that a lot.

[smoky token]

If you don’t like battlefield in general, you won’t like 2042

TLDR

[bold sparrow]

BF1 somehow managed to make it all work, dont know why.

[obsidian wyvern]

isnt bf4 considered the best of the lot

[amber mirage]

Some people say 4, some say 1

[obsidian wyvern]

i tried the campaign, i got bored of that pretty quickly too

[round laurel]

... and some say Bad Company 2.

[amber mirage]

The campaigns aren't very good.

[amber mirage]

I was about to say that before i decided to respond to dynf.

[leaden juniper]

Honestly 2042 has more imbalance though. In 4, 1 and 5 each faction was balanced I.e every faction has equivalent equipment etc but in 2042 they made the stupid decision to make the vehicles different and the Russian jets manuveability better than the Americans, basically ruining any dogfight potential

[bold sparrow]

Never a problem for me, I cant fly in BF for some stupid reason.
I feel like planes and choppers always suck on console.

[leaden juniper]

And of course the busted russian transport chopper but that got nerfed l

[round laurel]

Yeah I always feel like a toddler when I try to fly in BF. You never get a chance to learn becuase you just get shot out of the sky by better players almost instantly lol

[bold sparrow]

They shoulda made the railgun from the last season more powerful.

[leaden juniper]

In 4 there was a speed range you wanted to master but it's virtually irrelevant in all the titles past that

[amber mirage]

I was decent back in 3 with jets

[bold sparrow]

"Hey, he's not doing cobras, GET HIM!"
Every AA launcher and enemy vehicle instantly tunnel visions on you

[obsidian wyvern]

btw force and orca, would you be interested in joining customs this weekend, looks like its gonna be on saturday evening ET but could change if more people are free on friday/sunday evening

[leaden juniper]

I miss the JDAM tho

[jaunty yoke]

It doesn't matter who wins

As long as Playstation loses

[forest lagoon]

[amber mirage]

Everyone should win

[jaunty yoke]

Winners wouldn't exist without losers

[leaden juniper]

The only reason I even somewhat dislike playstation is because demons souls and bloodborne did not get a pc port and we haven't had a new twisted metal in 11 years and the one in 2012 was mid

[fickle drift]

Sup

[dry frigate]

hmm

[jaunty yoke]

It's funny how Playstation guys on the internet are constantly bragging about how they got their best exclusives and always put Bloodborne as the magnum opus of all time, but then all they do is constantly ask for it to be brought to PC and complain about how the console version is locked at 20fps and runs bad

[floral pollen]

First ever shop item has been purchased

Got the Bulldog coating

[dry frigate]

a lot of people play Halo on Contrlloer because it has aim assit lol

[forest lagoon]

In a marathon, all you gotta do is complete the race to be considered a winner

[leaden juniper]

I don't even really think most of playstation exclusives are that great, like God of war (modern) 1 and 2 were good and bloodborne were good but can you believe bloodborne hasn't even had a ps5 enhancement patch

[jaunty yoke]

Silly how Sony said that Microsoft would sabotage Call of Duty on Playstation with buggy and deliberately broken releases. And then, The Last of Us releases on PC completely broken and unstable

[fickle drift]

You know I don't really like playstation

[smoky token]

Americans jets can vector thrust downwards, so

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[fickle drift]

I rather xbox

[jaunty yoke]

Based

[fickle drift]

Bc for me they have better license

[fossil skiff]

Arduino superior console

[dry frigate]

bruh everything in the shop is trash

[leaden juniper]

Yeah irrelevant in a dogfight though and it's just asking for some clown using lis or an RPG to smoke you

[fickle drift]

Like halo forza gears of war sea of thieves etc etc

[copper meadow]

PlayStation has some nice exclusives but I’m not interested in any of them. Xbox has way better multiplayer games

[jaunty yoke]

Xbox has alwayas had better online servers, especially during the Xbox 360 days

[smoky token]

If you start to change your thrust while someone is on your tail, you can get behind them and eradicate them with 23mm + missiles without any pushback

[dry frigate]

Who works at 343

[smoky token]

Like a cobra but better

[smoky token]

Nobody

[jaunty yoke]

343 employees

[smoky token]

Everybody at 343 was fired

[fickle drift]

Yes

[copper meadow]

Does stadia still exist? lol

[forest lagoon]

What is a 343?

[fickle drift]

And who revolutionary fps 2000's halo

[dry frigate]

oh my

[copper meadow]

A poor attempt at counting

[dry frigate]

goodness

[fickle drift]

So a bit recognising between halo should be good

[jaunty yoke]

343 is the number 7 elevated at the power of 3, 7 squared

[leaden juniper]

You could do this in 4 too, but you didn't have crap maneuverability

[obsidian wyvern]

no

[smoky token]

Yeah stadia was actually gutted

Gone now

[copper meadow]

Dang

[jaunty yoke]

The thruster pack in Halo 4 was silly, useless in campaign, alright in multiplayer, GODLIKE in custom games

[obsidian wyvern]

they had no games on there to make me even consider it

[dry frigate]

I want 343 to put the Liberty Clad Vehicle color coating pack in the SHOP

[smoky token]

There was one dude who played 6k hours of Destiny 2 on stadia

[dreamy stirrup]

@pure spindle rip ur controller

[tepid cipher]

ayo how yall

[smoky token]

Had to get into direct contact with Bungie in order to transfer his progress when it was announced that Stadia would be shut down

[dry frigate]

When will it be in the shop

[fickle drift]

Is Halo on Amazon Luna

[dry frigate]

bruh

[jaunty yoke]

You should be grateful Bungie didn't have enough time to finish Halo 2 up to their original vision. Quarantine Zone was originally gonna be twice as big, and that end part that looks just like the Halo CE library? It was gonna be The Library 2.0

[fickle drift]

oh geeaz

[smoky token]

I liked the QZ

one of my favorite missions

[fickle drift]

The ending of halo 2 is so meme

[smoky token]

Aside from that elevator ride of course

[fickle drift]

finishing this fight... roll credits

[jaunty yoke]

Very long gondola ride aside, I like QZ too

[smoky token]

This was allegedly because they couldn’t finish the campaign

[jaunty yoke]

Halo Infinite gave me flashbacks to that with its own Gondola ride and fighting the Sentinel waves in Legendary there was pain

[smoky token]

They didn’t intend to make Halo 3 afaik, they just didn’t have enough time to finish halo 2

[jaunty yoke]

Yep pretty much Halo 2 was gonna be all of Halo 3's plot too

[fickle drift]

wait then was halo 2 a cliffhanger

[jaunty yoke]

After plans changed and fastforwarding to Halo 3, deleted dialogues extracted from the files revealed that originally the end of Halo 3 was gonna be a suicide mission and the heroes would in fact die

[jaunty yoke]

Yes

[fickle drift]

so MC would die and be MIA then how do you explain Halo 4

[smoky token]

Halo 2 was the first and second act of a story, Halo 3 was the third act

[smoky token]

He didn’t die though

[jaunty yoke]

There were no plans for Halo 4 back in 2006-2007 during Halo 3's development

[obsidian wyvern]

someone didnt see the legendary ending

[smoky token]

In the legendary ending of Halo 3 you can see the FUD going and being pulled into Requiem’s gravity well

[fickle drift]

Sargent Johnson guaranteed a woman in halo 4, angela bassett

[jaunty yoke]

Plans changed

[rare cedar]

Linkin Park’s “What I’ve done” was supposed to play when he said that but it was cut

[jaunty yoke]

Then fastforward to late 2008, and before Halo Reach was Reach, Bungie did plan to make Halo 4, but the idea was left behind in favor of a prequel, then Reach happened, Bungie left, and 343 finally took the idea

[smoky token]

Halo 4’s story is peak

[jaunty yoke]

The 2000s sure were something else

[smoky token]

343 did amazing with it

[fickle drift]

Halo 4 really didnt involve a halo?

[tired wraith]

Nope

A big 3d donut

[fossil skiff]

Neither did reach but you people still love that game

[jaunty yoke]

You'd be surprised how less and less Halo rings are involved in the games

[rare cedar]

[tired wraith]

Fireteam rayven was pretty cool though

[jaunty yoke]

In Halo CE all but one of the missions take place on the ring, in Halo 2 only half the missions take place on the ring, and in Halo 3, only one mission takes place on a ring

[tired wraith]

First halo arcade game

[fickle drift]

hey did you hear in d2 pete stacker lines

[smoky token]

There was a Halo in 4 but it wasn’t the focal point of the story

That was Requiem and the secrets hidden there, obviously

[amber mirage]

In Halo 4, one cutscene shows a ring

[smoky token]

Namely Shadow-Of-Sundered-Star, the Ur-Didact

[jaunty yoke]

It also shows as background in the mission

[tired wraith]

Man I hate forerunner names

[fickle drift]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Exy4bXCz1c

[amber mirage]

Its been a while since I played. I might have missed that.

[tired wraith]

They are so confusing

[smoky token]

I love forerunner names

[tired wraith]

They are like ship names

[fossil skiff]

You don’t like having a name consisting of four words?

Wack

[amber mirage]

It's like high fantasy names.

[tired wraith]

Not I just don’t like it sounding like a sentence

[smoky token]

Last Light Weaves Living Song, Chant To Green, Bornstellar Makes Eternal Lasting, Fabre of Will and Might…

I can see it yeah

[tired wraith]

Yeah

[smoky token]

Oops WiFi went out for a second

[fickle drift]

I realized in odst we see a POV like from Jenkins in Halo 1

[jaunty yoke]

Wait until you hear the Forerunner scientifical name: Primoris Prognatus

[tired wraith]

Might as well make one named Gluteus-Maximus

[fickle drift]

Halo's storyline looked and sounded similar to Mass Effect, some big weapon hidden in plain sight able to destroy the galaxy of all life

[jaunty yoke]

And in case you missed it during the Didact's appearances, the Forerunners had 6 fingers

[amber mirage]

There are parallels. I noticed similarities the first time I played ME.

[tired wraith]

Yeah isn’t it an extra thumb or smth?

[fossil skiff]

Reapers vs CAS carrier

[fickle drift]

then you must realize there are also parallels between titanfall and mass effect

[amber mirage]

There's parallels in a lot of sci-fi

[jaunty yoke]

Well, both Halo and Mass Effect have the same source inspirations after all

[fickle drift]

eventually everything gets rebooted in science fantasy

[amber mirage]

I remember how magical Mass Effect felt when I was first playing it. First time you get to the Citadel, and then later the first time you hear the galaxy map music.

[edgy narwhal]

Does anyone still play Halo 3

[fickle drift]

in some due time maybe MC will have to activate the rings to destroy the timeline like time machine corruption

[jaunty yoke]

It's funny because in normal non-sci fi franchises like Friday the 13th the next step is taking your franchise to space. But for sci fi franchises, the next step is taking things to Earth

[muted rose]

Your gonna hate me then

[fickle drift]

4runner the 4runner to the 4runner

[hasty zinc]

Toyota Forerunner

[fickle drift]

343 in octal is a O

[jaunty yoke]

Elon Musk already created warthogs, the next step is creating promethean vehicles

[tired wraith]

Even Jeep copied Halo

[muted rose]

Warthogs run on water I think

So technically no

[jaunty yoke]

Wouldn't you want a personal Banshee?

[muted rose]

Yes

[rare cedar]

So the gas tanks on the back of the warthog are just for show?

[hasty zinc]

I have those in my nightmares already

[edgy narwhal]

Personal mongoose

[hasty zinc]

no they're filled with water

[tired wraith]

Personal ma5 any model

[rare cedar]

Misleading. I’m suing

[jaunty yoke]

Enter Area 51 on a car, leave Area 51 on a Ghost

[muted rose]

I don’t think that I could resist boosting into a crowded zone and hearing that sweet Steitzer voice yelling at me

[hasty zinc]

misleading how?

[fickle drift]

i called him seltzer never knew how to pronunce his name

[edgy narwhal]

Does anyone want to play Halo 3 Mythic

[hasty zinc]

the water is the warhogs fuel

[tired wraith]

Hehe

[amber mirage]

They should've strapped these to the back of the Warthog

[tired wraith]

Seltzer

[muted rose]

Seltzer water is mid ngl

[rare cedar]

Gas tanks with water inside

[edgy narwhal]

Seltzer

[jaunty yoke]

Let's just call him the Double Kill guy

[rare cedar]

Yea put these on the back

[edgy narwhal]

More like sparkling

Beacise the bubbles sparkle

[hasty zinc]

tbf it doesn't say gas anywhere on the tanks

[muted rose]

I like the ice flavoured water though

*the brand is called ice it is not ice flavoured unfortunately

[fickle drift]

geez i remember the custom maps in halo custom edition

[edgy narwhal]

Because*

[jaunty yoke]

Halo 4 made the best Warthog design of all, adding the gas canisters on the back was the perfect touch

[tired wraith]

I prefer air flavored

[rare cedar]

When you see a red tank, it’s assumed gas ⛽️

[obsidian wyvern]

i was always wondering if having an oil tank on the back was smart, then i found out it had water

[hasty zinc]

I assume they keep it red because it's still their fuel

[muted rose]

I prefer oil

[jaunty yoke]

If you've played classic games you'll know red means explosive

[hasty zinc]

it might have special properties to it

[amber mirage]

They use that thinking to keep people from drinking the fuel supply.

[fickle drift]

Halo infinite is a demo because in order to unlock more levels you have to pay, almost like f2p is what freeware was when doom 1 came out

[muted rose]

Like me

[obsidian wyvern]

??

[muted rose]

I expect oil and instead I get water. Gross

[jaunty yoke]

You can pay to unlock more levels, but you don't need to

[hasty zinc]

what do diesel users put their fuel in?

[jaunty yoke]

Airplanes?

[obsidian wyvern]

why do you guys call it gas when its clearly a liquid

[jaunty yoke]

What about gasoline

[hasty zinc]

because it's short for gasoline

[jaunty yoke]

In Argentina they call it nafta

[amber mirage]

The North American Free Trade Agreement?

[fickle drift]

water should be considered flammable since its hydrogen and oxygen

[jaunty yoke]

Hmmm

[obsidian wyvern]

forgot thst word existed

[edgy narwhal]

Dihydrogen monoxide

[jaunty yoke]

Depending on the source of the fire, water can make it stronger instead of putting it down

[edgy narwhal]

Bro my nemesis on Halo 3 is the guardians

[hearty flame]

water is wet

[edgy narwhal]

No cap

[jaunty yoke]

You try to get out of the multiplayer maps quite a lot don't ya

[edgy narwhal]

Sand trap big tower beacon laser

[fickle drift]

Halo Combat Evolved Loading Screen, without the loading text it would have been an art

[jaunty yoke]

I would tell you about the glitch to overload maps with tripmines and deactivate the guardians but it only works on the Xbox 360 version

[edgy narwhal]

I am on Xbox 360

[jaunty yoke]

Alright then

[edgy narwhal]

The release model

[jaunty yoke]

On Forge, spawn a tripmine, reduce its respawn timer to the minimum, spam them until they blow up on their own and the guardians won't work anymore

[edgy narwhal]

Ok

Sometimes when I am playing on system link on Kai sometimes ghost appear and they like kill me with plasma grenades and they teleport everywhere

And I can't kill them

[jaunty yoke]

Either very wacky internet or hackers

[copper meadow]

Green tanks?

[edgy narwhal]

Describe wacky

Is 1.07mbps wacky

And that's only on good nights

[jaunty yoke]

Uhhhh

[obsidian wyvern]

rip

[jaunty yoke]

Sorta

[edgy narwhal]

Is it bad If I use Kai on my vista laptop

[amber mirage]

Those are all rumors. Not very credible ones.

[edgy narwhal]

Gasoline?

[faint mantle]

I got one better

And it's real

[edgy narwhal]

The AK-47, officially known as the Avtomat Kalashnikova (Russian: Автомат Калашникова, lit. 'Kalashnikov's automatic [rifle]'; also known as the Kalashnikov or just AK), is a gas-operated assault rifle that is chambered for the 7.62×39mm cartridge. Developed in the Soviet Union by Russian small-arms designer Mikhail Kalashnikov, it is the originating firearm of the Kalashnikov (or "AK") family of rifles. After more than seven decades since its creation, the AK-47 model and its variants remain one of the most popular and widely used firearms in the world.

AK-47

Cringe among us

[simple wave]

What very hard achievement should I get now?

[jaunty yoke]

Unreal Engine is for future Halo games, not Infinite

[jaunty yoke]

LASO Master (MCC)

[obsidian wyvern]

woah

[edgy narwhal]

Xbox live vision achievements

Does anyone want to do Rockets Slayer on Sandbox Halo 3

[simple wave]

Leave it where it lay & look out for the little guys are what I want.

[edgy narwhal]

Does anyone want to play Halo 2

[simple wave]

I got the airborne achievement last night

[fickle drift]

jasonborne

[warped briar]

are all the halo campaigns linked together? or does the order played not matter

[jaunty yoke]

They are linked and order matters

[warped briar]

is the order as follows:
reach, ce, 2, 3

[jaunty yoke]

Yes

ODST goes between 2 and 3, after 3 goes 4

[warped briar]

ok thanks

been years since i played

[steep hazel]

just finished the original halo trilogy for the second time. feeling empty 😭

[amber mirage]

That's chronological order. You'll usually want to play things in release order for best impact, in which case, ODST comes after 3, and Reach after ODST.

[warped briar]

oh right thank you

[fickle drift]

reach, 1,2,odst,3

[steep hazel]

Oh ye true that, funnily enough my first playthrough was chronological though and it still hit hard 😭

But completely agree in hindsight release is much better

[hasty zinc]

release order best order

[steep hazel]

yup indeed

[warped briar]

i wondered why the graphics for reach were much better than ce lol

[steep hazel]

gameplay evolves graphics evolve and you get more context for the story

[hasty zinc]

sounds painful going from Reach to CE. Spartans get super nerfed

[amber mirage]

I started with 2, and didn't go back for CE until right before Reach because I didn't have the opportunity.

[steep hazel]

reach still looks great to this day

[steep hazel]

oh yeah trust me it was 😭 as a first time Halo player back then

[hasty zinc]

oof

[amber mirage]

I do release order for everything I possibly can now.

[steep hazel]

all my friends told me release order but I was kinda like “noooo my adhd gonna get confused” then I went chronological and it hit in the head once I couldn’t sprint in CE 😭

[jaunty yoke]

If cutscenes were on legendary, Guilty Spark would have killed the Chief when he shot him with his beam in the last mission of Halo 3

[steep hazel]

yupp

I’ve said this many times but if Chief didn’t have luck/plot armor he woulda died in the OG trilogy 😭

So much situations he just gets lucked out of

[hasty zinc]

actual canon luck

[steep hazel]

love that that’s his defining characteristic though it makes it kinda interesting how he’s not the best Spartan but he’s the luckiest so everyone follows him

[fickle drift]

Jun-A266 is still alive

[hasty zinc]

unfortunately

[steep hazel]

like hell fred would probably be leader of blue team if chief wasn’t lucky

[bold sparrow]

Fred intentionally stepped down to let Chief lead.

[hearty flame]

It's not like his only trait is luck, and I'm pretty sure John is a better leader than most other Spartans

[jaunty yoke]

Oh cool there's new maps in Community Collection

[steep hazel]

oh yeah then they used it to canonize six’s gender

[steep hazel]

Oh yeah that’s true

[hearty flame]

I'm pretty sure Six was always canonically male

[bold sparrow]

Fred knows his place and is quite happy to let Chief lead.

[floral pollen]

Jus got my first Scattergunner

[hasty zinc]

yeah but being a good leader doesn't help you find intact warthogs after falling through the atmosphere of a Shield World

[jaunty yoke]

Fred has a higher military rank than Chief, but he considers the Chief as better than him

[bold sparrow]

Fred is the knife man anyway.

[steep hazel]

Oh don’t get me wrong I agree a hundred percent I kinda just like how he keeps persevering and gets really lucky it’s not like he doesn’t has the skills I’m just saying it’s pretty cool that one of his defining traits is luck

[hearty flame]

I'll never claim otherwise

[bold sparrow]

Everyone keep trying to make Fred the leader or the commander style but no, Fred is and always will be the knife man.

[obsidian wyvern]

there's new forge maps in the community playlist

[jaunty yoke]

Linda is a camper and Kelly is a speedrunner, isn't Blue Team interesting

[near tree]

Love your banner Aegis
Screen shot or Photoshop?

[steep hazel]

Really? Never heard that, I thought it was mentioned in one novel later on

[bold sparrow]

Lindas camper and quickscoper both

Her sniper skills are the envy of even FaZe

[hasty zinc]

screenshot, I recreated the S3 oasis promo pic with my spartan using machinima controls in forge

[jaunty yoke]

Kelly finished Halo 2 legendary in under 1 hour

[near tree]

Epic

[hearty flame]

Like John's luck manifests typically at peak moments of the game. There's one Sword ship left in the hanger, he survives the landing from the keyship, he makes the jump into the Dawn, he lives for 4 years and makes the grenade stick at the end of 4, etc.,.

[obsidian wyvern]

woah have you guys seen the new ultimate

[dreamy stirrup]

[hearty flame]

There's little things too that are important for gameplay reasons like the intact warthogs, but his luck truly manifests itself at those moments

[hasty zinc]

the knife scene in H4 is truly his peak luck

[steep hazel]

Hundred percent

[hearty flame]

Knife scene?

Which was that

[hasty zinc]

where he leaps off the edge and knifes a Lich to hold onto it

[hearty flame]

Oh absolutely

[jaunty yoke]

His luck is so big that for that specific moment the promethean grenade acquires sticky properties

[obsidian wyvern]

https://tenor.com/view/halo-gif-9167710

don't see him surviving this either

[hearty flame]

At that point I feel like he was intentionally putting himself into suicidal situations to test this whole "luck" theory

[hasty zinc]

that's childs play compared to other stuff he's done

[steep hazel]

My Chief in Halo 3 low key just blew up a scarab was close as hell to the scarab when it blew up and walked out the smoke with only low shields I consider that to be canon luck in gameplay 😭

[jaunty yoke]

I don't think you realize how strong Brutes are if one can carry a Spartan 2 with one hand

[bronze breach]

we have bumblebee spartan, now there is shockwave... https://i.imgur.com/kI73Tdq.png

[hasty zinc]

I need to buy credits to get that bundle

[jaunty yoke]

Oh Jesus, xenomorph spartan

[bronze breach]

i wish we can change the color of the white circle... oh well.

[jaunty yoke]

Is the spartan wearing VR headset? What they playing?

[fickle drift]

do spartans feel emotions?

[jaunty yoke]

Yes

[bronze breach]

and still i will go 5-25 hahaha

[steep hazel]

reminds me imagine all Halo campaigns in vr since they all wear helmets

[amber mirage]

I miss Promethean weapons. I really liked their gameplay properties.

[steep hazel]

god the immersion would just be amazing

[jaunty yoke]

I'm almost sure Spartans have Xbox emulators built in their armors to play when they're bored

[steep hazel]

with the hud and all that

[jaunty yoke]

Same

[steep hazel]

oh a hundred percent there’s definitely some times they’re just hanging in ships and wanna chill maybe play some gears of war or forza while just chilling 😭

[bronze breach]

Im just waiting for a white coating for chimera if it ever happens... I shall become Godspeed.

[obsidian wyvern]

I'm so lost on one of these new maps, there's like 5 different levels

[jaunty yoke]

I vividly remember the Halo 4 hype and everyone lost their mind when they revealed that promethean weapons could disintegrate bodies

[steep hazel]

god imagine just seeing a Spartan play some Xbox game in their helmet and then just yell out of frustration and throw their helmet off cuz they lost the game

[amber mirage]

The weapons forming themselves when picking them up too

[jaunty yoke]

Halo 2 on legendary is actual Spartan training

[steep hazel]

Real

Sniper jackals 😭

[simple wave]

If there were an achievement for completing every level of Halo 3 on legendary, alone, I’d call it “The Fight, Finished”.

[hearty flame]

Only people with John's level of luck have done Halo 2 LASO no deaths

[steep hazel]

Wasn’t there someone who did it for the moist critical challenge a year ago?

[simple wave]

Yea back in August.

[hearty flame]

John levels of luck, my friend

[steep hazel]

Yeah damn that luck 😭

[simple wave]

Mr Jervalin conquered the challenge.

[jaunty yoke]

He is a walking legend among men

[simple wave]

The saying of Destiny is “Become Legend”. And yes, he became legend.

[steep hazel]

He has transcended humanity

[hasty zinc]

can't wait to grind firewall after work

[steep hazel]

He has become a higher spiritual being

[jaunty yoke]

I recognize one of the new maps they added to the community collection, played it several months ago in custom games. Nice to see the creator got the ultimate award

[muted rose]

It really is that bad, but nobodies talking about the stinking jackal snipers on infinite legendary, it’s not as bad as 2, but it’s pretty bad

[jaunty yoke]

If I don't remember wrong, Jervalin was awarded with permanent Xbox Live

[muted rose]

Just live?

[simple wave]

Halo 4 is the only game where jackal snipers don’t 1 shot on legendary

[hasty zinc]

uhh they do

[simple wave]

What.

[muted rose]

Kinda lame if it’s just live…

[simple wave]

If it’s just 1 sniper, I’ve been brought to red with one.

[jaunty yoke]

The Halo 5 sniper Jackals are especially terrible because of how they play with your feelings. They kill you, and while you wait for your squad to go and revive you, the Jackal patiently waits for them to get close and start reviving, and then kill them too

[hasty zinc]

maybe they just missed their headshot

[simple wave]

Maybe.

But if it’s 2 snipers then I did die really fast.

[muted rose]

On the other side of the coin we have Reach hunters. They were a piece of cake on legendary

[hasty zinc]

even easier now that you can board them

[muted rose]

But then again, reach was not very difficult on legendary

With a few exceptions

[jaunty yoke]

I didn't know 343 added back that feature until a couple weeks ago

[simple wave]

Long Night of Solace in question

[muted rose]

Waiting for Keyes was awful too

[hasty zinc]

LNoS is easy if you just hide behind the space station

[simple wave]

For real!!!

[jaunty yoke]

When I was doing Reach LASO, I found out you can just hide and do nothing, and the space section will complete on its own

[languid wigeon]

reach's difficulty is so weird

[simple wave]

TPoA on Reach was very tough.

[languid wigeon]

the weapons are on a binary of useless to good

[hasty zinc]

reach difficulty also varies between MCC and 360 version

[languid wigeon]

but there aren't many enimies that can one shot you

[muted rose]

Do vehicles break faster on legendary, or do they simply take more damage?

[simple wave]

Seraphs aimbotting

[jaunty yoke]

Oh Pillar of Autumn LASO was pain for me, I had to restart it twice. For the end part I had to board the MAC cannon before you're supposed to just to destroy the Phantoms that deploy the enemy waves just to avoid fighting them

[languid wigeon]

long night of suffering is hell but that's only because of a bug, I remember the space part being trivial on xbox

[muted rose]

Because I got the scorpion all the way to sword base on The package, (mostly because I had no choice) but I died so many times

[hasty zinc]

The Saber launch cutscene is one of Halo's best

[languid wigeon]

its so good

[jaunty yoke]

Yeah, the main formula legendary works is making your shields weaker and enemies more durable

[hasty zinc]

not my favorite but it's up there

[astral saffron]

The slipspace rupture detected cutscene

[muted rose]

The intro to exodus is so good too

[simple wave]

Cairo Station LASO… monkaS

[muted rose]

Tried it. Couldn’t do the first hangar. Gave up.

[hasty zinc]

Cairo Station Megg achievment

[jaunty yoke]

I only beat Cairo Station LASO because a friend helped me

[languid wigeon]

I like how your spartan has been walking for days through the wilderness between suffering and exodus

[hasty zinc]

9 days IIRC

[muted rose]

Wait hold on 9 days?

[hasty zinc]

yeah

[jaunty yoke]

The rest of the campaign was a matter of patience tho, putting the 5 hours I spent on Gravemind aside, Halo 2 LASO isn't that bad if you follow the Halo Completionist guides

[muted rose]

Checked halopedia and it was 9 days. Sheesh 6 is a beast

[muted rose]

I started my reach Laso playlist awhile ago, and finished winter contingency, and am about halfway through sword base

[rapid pivot]

Cairo Station was one of the hardest levels when I played Halo 2 on legendary for the first time.

[jaunty yoke]

Halo 4 LASO was fun, not particularly hard, it was a blast to just break the game and speedrun, unfortunately I should have kept it for last instead of first

[muted rose]

I found it surprisingly difficult. But did anyone else get stuck in the council chambers in gravemind (the beginning section) and died nearly 100+ times

Those carbine brutes were the worst

[jaunty yoke]

Yeah, I could only get out of the first room after succesfully doing the glitch that skips the last waves

[rapid pivot]

You’re taking legendary or laso?

[muted rose]

I also had a lot of difficulty on two betrayals and aotcr on legendary

[muted rose]

Just normal legendary lol

[hollow bane]

this event has 20 items is it going to be over 3 weeks? the first week i only got to 4/20

[muted rose]

I’m pathetic Ik

[jaunty yoke]

Oh I GAVE UP on Assault on the Control Room, I did the Banshee hijack glitch that despawned all the enemies for the entire mission and only like that I could beat it

[pliant hatch]

ooo, new maps

[smoky token]

I disagree because of Promethean Knight instant teleportation melee

Otherwise yeah it was pretty fun

[muted rose]

I struggled with FUD’s landing zone on 3.

[smoky token]

I think everyone did

[jaunty yoke]

That's the curious thing I noticed during the LASO runs

[rapid pivot]

It was definitely one of the harder moments for me. Don’t think I died 100+ times, but it was brutal. Especially the first time I did it. Those brutes kill you before your hud is even on screen

I mainly just hid on the upper levels and used carbines and needlers.

[jaunty yoke]

I don't know if it's a skull doing it, or if it was something 343 tweaked to make it more bearable, but when you play LASO in MCC you're actually stronger than in regular legendary. ODST for example, in regular legendary you can't survive shooting a rocket downwards or sticking yourself with a plasma grenade, BUT IN LASO YOU CAN

[muted rose]

What I did was take a brute chopper, ram the shade turret on the right, drive back to the opening, kill everyone from a distance, and then slowly sneak up on the anti air wraith and do the rest of the infantry

[versed widget]

Infinite servers down for anyone else? I cant log in

[dreamy stirrup]

try restarting the console?

[cinder mirage]

plasma repeater>nearly any weapon imo

[muted rose]

Took about 2 hours but I got it perfectly on my last try

[cinder mirage]

infinite mid anyways

[languid wigeon]

is it?

[jaunty yoke]

In regular Halo 3/ODST you can't melee a Wraith from the front because the turret guy would shred you, but in LASO you ARE durable enough to take it down

[cinder mirage]

imo ye

[languid wigeon]

can't say Ive used it much

[jaunty yoke]

2 bad takes in under 1 minute

[languid wigeon]

isn't the plasma pistol just better

[muted rose]

I noticed that people seem to survive a lot longer on laso play throughs when I watch then do the same thing on legendary

[cinder mirage]

the plasma repeater is goor

it cant beat weapons like sniper rpg laser energy sword and grav hammer tho

[jaunty yoke]

Yeah I'm telling ya, don't know if it's a skull doing it or if 343 tweaked your health to make it bearable, but you are stronger in LASO

[languid wigeon]

wont it overheat before dropping a high level elite's shield?

[rapid pivot]

Well can’t you get over shields by meeleing

[muted rose]

It does, which is why it suck’s

[jaunty yoke]

Only in Halo 2

[muted rose]

And infinite

[fickle drift]

Hi spartan

[muted rose]

But it’s way worse on 2

[languid wigeon]

yeah if it can't drop a high teir elites shields or headshot I can't put it in the good catagory

[jaunty yoke]

But for example, in regular legendary for Reach and Halo 4, an Elite or Knight would kill you in one melee hit, but on LASO you can resist up to 3 hits

[obsidian wyvern]

theyve improved starboard quite a bit aegis

[cinder mirage]

halo 5>infinite

[rapid pivot]

Nah

[fickle drift]

Can I rate best xbox one to least in ranking

[cinder mirage]

yuh

[obsidian wyvern]

its pretty obvious

[fickle drift]

In 1. We have Xbox One X 2. One S 3 One

[obsidian wyvern]

lights

[fickle drift]

Halo 5 have better story

[muted rose]

Infinite has better customisation, but 5 generally has better multiplayer

[jaunty yoke]

Did anyone ever buy that Xbox 360 that looked just like the Xbox One but it was a 360? It released in 2013

[cinder mirage]

you mean the 360 e

[jaunty yoke]

Yeah that

[rapid pivot]

Can someone explain this quote from Halopedia to me: “Unggoy Heavies are classified as Special Operations Unggoy in Firefight, whereas Unggoy Ultras are simply classed as regular Unggoy. Actual Special Operations Unggoy are only seen manning the side-mounted plasma turrets on the Phantoms” - so there are spec ops grunts in Halo 3 on phantom turrets? Anyone have a screenshot of this? I thought they were totally cut from the game.

[languid wigeon]

infinite and 5 both have microtransations and theirfore have equally trash customization

[muted rose]

Is that Aquarius or the new plaza remake

Or streets

[cinder mirage]

i only play 5 for the campaign

[obsidian wyvern]

neither

[languid wigeon]

though at least in 5 you could pretend to get them through gameplay

[obsidian wyvern]

its the midship take that eas featured a while back

[muted rose]

Oooh

[languid wigeon]

but still its a joke and I don't understand why people buy them when they where included in reach's price tag

[muted rose]

That’s why I didn’t recognise it

[cinder mirage]

nah cuz imagine if noble 6 was in the spartan 2 program

[jaunty yoke]

Because you'd be an idiot to only make 60 bucks out of a videogame when you could make more

[languid wigeon]

you can't even pick your colors in 6

[forest lagoon]

Sounds kinda mid to me

[muted rose]

Out.

[forest lagoon]

[muted rose]

Alright I’m going to financial lit and there’s no signal in there because our school sucks, so farewell Spartans

[languid wigeon]

don't assume my species

[jaunty yoke]

Spartan is a soldier type, not a species

Technically an Elite could be an Spartan

[languid wigeon]

its listed as species in reach

[jaunty yoke]

Because Reach is dumb

[forest lagoon]

Let's not do this

[languid wigeon]

I highly doubt an elite can be a spartan

[cinder mirage]

reach is the best halo game fym its dumb

[jaunty yoke]

The best Halo game is Halo 3

[cinder mirage]

2nd best is halo 3

[languid wigeon]

reach is probably my favorite halo game but its for sure the worst of the bungie titles not counting odst asset flip

[jaunty yoke]

2nd best Halo is Halo 2

[copper meadow]

Imagine

[cinder mirage]

3rd best is halo 2

[jaunty yoke]

3rd best Halo is Halo 4

[fickle drift]

First best halo is halo combat evolved

[languid wigeon]

the balancing is wack in reach

[cinder mirage]

4th best is halo ce

[copper meadow]

Please take your opinion with you as you exit the building

[languid wigeon]

imo the game play is best in halo 1 and gets a little worse in every title

[jaunty yoke]

If Reach was a 10, bloom and armor lock alone would take it down to a 7

[languid wigeon]

exept infinite which is better than halo reach

[copper meadow]

Story for infinite was mid to me. I’m not playing wars 2 just for the story to mean anything to me

[fickle drift]

I laugh if someone say best halo is infinite

[cinder mirage]

i only play cuz the games are good

[copper meadow]

The gameplay and map was great but the story was all over the place

[languid wigeon]

I refuse to pay 60 dollars for a halo campaign without all the other stuff so im only commenting on the f2p multiplayer.

[jaunty yoke]

Infinite doesn't encourage stealing your teammates' kills or ganging up on one enemy, so yeah, it's better than Reach in that regard

[languid wigeon]

I'm sure reach campaign is better tho cause it isn't open world alone

[fickle drift]

Reach is likely rogue one everyone dies

[jaunty yoke]

Playstation has been selling singleplayer only games for 70 bucks for quite a long time you know

[copper meadow]

Jun didn’t die

[cinder mirage]

jun didnt die

[fickle drift]

But honestly between star wars and halo I rather halo

[languid wigeon]

clown *crap I guess sorry

I'm used to pc game prices

[forest lagoon]

Cool thing is, you don't have to pick and there's a multitude of media to choose and enjoy from

[cinder mirage]

emile and six died so brutally

[copper meadow]

Emile went out like a badass

[languid wigeon]

here's a hot take, halo wars is really good.

both as an rts and as a halo game

[frail walrus]

That's not a hot take, that's true

[copper meadow]

Not really hot take. I enjoyed it even though I prefer fps

[cinder mirage]

spartan assault is also really good

[jaunty yoke]

Emile was severely nerfed to be killed, spartans surviving falls from space, but being impaled by an energy sword smh

[copper meadow]

He killed an elite after being impaled my guy

[frail walrus]

I think both HW games are quite good

[fickle drift]

well to be fair when most of the dev time is going into the actual story and its not split with games like halo, you'd expect a better quality single player out of those sorts of games

[languid wigeon]

it has a bad reputation among core rts fans

[cinder mirage]

imagine if six was in spartan 2

[jaunty yoke]

And I'm supposed to believe a six feet fall killed him?

[forest lagoon]

Ah, co1e is here. Now I can go afk. Have fun

[languid wigeon]

still haven't gotten around to hw2 but im exited to someday

[frail walrus]

Well that might be a different discussion, how "good" of an RTS are the HW games

[round laurel]

Does it? I mean it's a fairly simple RTS but I never read anyone complain about it.

[languid wigeon]

I straight up think its good

[frail walrus]

but in terms of generalities, they are good and enjoyable games imo

RTS standards or not

[jaunty yoke]

If I were paying for a good story I would go to the cinema

[fickle drift]

Honestly I gave up everything for rather and only playing halo

[languid wigeon]

and it's shockingly difficult

and the co-op factor is a unique experience in rts.

[fickle drift]

Because halo license has better stories and spin-off than sw

[round laurel]

better spin-offs than SW is just false haha

[fickle drift]

I say think this when people start talking about halo 4's story, just go watch lord of the rings bro, I want a fun game

[languid wigeon]

you can have both

[jaunty yoke]

You don't find Halo 4 fun, others do

[languid wigeon]

I like my video game stories on the simple side tho

people like halo 4?

[steady jolt]

Yes

[round laurel]

Yeah

[languid wigeon]

I checked out when knights where introduced

[fickle drift]

I have a question

[jaunty yoke]

81 user score on Metacritic

[round laurel]

Shoot

[fickle drift]

Is that any of you enjoy halo shows on paramount + ?

[hasty zinc]

yes

[fickle drift]

Bc me yes

[steady jolt]

Yep

[languid wigeon]

I saw 3 episodes and then stopped

[fickle drift]

Oh

[languid wigeon]

disaster show

[hasty zinc]

actually it was very successful 🙂

[fickle drift]

Yes

halo show was literally a master piece

And now we got s2 let's goooo

[languid wigeon]

it's just not what I want from halo, I can see people liking it, there isn't anything wrong with it per say

[jaunty yoke]

If you liked the Mario movie you'd most likely like the Halo TV show, they both have stupid and mediocre plots, but you're there to watch some action and don't think too hard on stuff

[fickle drift]

Agreed

[hasty zinc]

"disaster" "there isn't anything wrong with it" pick one

[fickle drift]

And it's the best lore space game this of halo

[languid wigeon]

like the chef taking his helmet off is a disaster to me, but thats a subjective opinion, other people can be okay with that

many other things like that

[fickle drift]

Ofc it's manichean see humans saves humanity and fight aliens but we love fight and kills covenant and others aliens in the games licenses

[round laurel]

What do you mean?

[civic iris]

I just wish it was from the same lore as the games, not trying to do it better ig. I wanted something more like what some of those old clips were lookin like. But to each their own

[fickle drift]

there should have been another helmet under his helmet, ratings for the show would have increased

[jaunty yoke]

It works different from media and type of protagonist. In the games it makes sense that he doesn't take his helmet off because he is a self insert, we're supposed to put in his shoes. In the show we are not in his shoes, we are seeing him from the outside as any other character, so it makes sense that he has a face there

[languid wigeon]

I'm not doubing that the chef has a face!

[forest lagoon]

Believe it or not, some people can still enjoy something even if they think it's not up to par and have many criticisms. There is a middle ground between that you can find

[civic iris]

I wouldve accepted that as goofy as it is, lol

[hasty zinc]

but he takes off his helmet several times in the games

[fickle drift]

The plot is Spartans are kidnapped and putted inside them programs for controll them

[jaunty yoke]

You know exactly what I mean

[hasty zinc]

and you see his face in Halo 4

[forest lagoon]

You even get to see his face most of the time during the fall of reach animated movie

[fickle drift]

And series take both options at middle show evil cortana but after she's re become good

[jaunty yoke]

Halo 4 was the end of his self insert phase and the beginning of his actual character phase

[languid wigeon]

self insert chief best chief

[civic iris]

Agreed

[jaunty yoke]

Self inserts are boring

[languid wigeon]

you must be boring then :p

[jaunty yoke]

There's a reason most players prefer the Arbiter

[dreamy stirrup]

citation needed

[civic iris]

Its okay to like both

[hasty zinc]

omg Master Chief is ME but wait he's doing and saying stuff I would never do/say

[dreamy stirrup]

but also

y'all spend a lot of time talking about things you don't like smh

AEGIS

how did it go???

[languid wigeon]

do most people prefer the arbiter? didn't the whole community revolt against him in h2?

[fickle drift]

Major John have choose right decision bc if he want keeps artefacts and save friends he needs cortana take control of him

[hasty zinc]

it was postponed, interviewer is out sick

[dreamy stirrup]

noooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[forest lagoon]

[hasty zinc]

2 more days I get to be stressed

[dreamy stirrup]

whoop

[forest lagoon]

That sucks! That only prolongs the stress

[hasty zinc]

it's ok, I have firewall to keep me occupied and my Amazon Prime delivery service game

[civic iris]

I loved arbie from the start personally, thought it was super cool to see the other side in the main story in a way

[fickle drift]

Yk Halo is my first reason why I sub paramount +

[near tree]

Unlocking chimera items seems like a great way to ease stress

[hasty zinc]

your first reason should have been Star Trek

[languid wigeon]

love arbie

[near tree]

Yeah, lol

[fickle drift]

No

It was Halo but I'd love others shows purposed

And paramount owns nick so

[bronze breach]

I just want to see a white coating for chimera. 👀

[hasty zinc]

They own Nick Lachey??

[obsidian wyvern]

sam, did uny make that header for the latest announcement lol

[fickle drift]

No nickelodeon

[hasty zinc]

oh ok

[fickle drift]

For me own a xbox is more accessible than for playstation

I thought mostly for old models and for series s

[civic iris]

Halo is the only reason ive stayed loyal to xbox, even through the bad times.

Though I will say gamepass is pretty shweet

[hasty zinc]

it's ok

[fickle drift]

Sharkie

[civic iris]

Its something i wish I wouldve had as a kid, buncha free games

[hasty zinc]

"free"

[civic iris]

Well yeah, wrong wording there lol

More like it feels that way when you find something cool you can play on there, and you dont have to buy that specifically

[fickle drift]

You forget all others exclusives licenses like gears gears of war minecraft sea of thieves Microsoft flight simulator forza horizon age of empires the studios bethesda Rare etc etc

[copper meadow]

Free real estate?

[civic iris]

Im not forgetting them, I appreciate those too. But none of them mean as much to me as halo does

And thats just my opinion

[fickle drift]

Imagine dwayne Johnson as Marcus fenix

[civic iris]

Hes cookin locusts

[fickle drift]

Sharkie

[frail walrus]

The new maps in the community playlist are great

[civic iris]

They're very refreshing

[fickle drift]

Imagine owning helmet masterchief collector halo 3 and having the covenant sword of collector infinte

[hasty zinc]

👀

[civic iris]

For sure gotta get some more in there, love the communities' creativity

[hasty zinc]

if you saw mine and stckrs collection you'd probably faint lol

[fickle drift]

I'm ask if the helmet we can put on head

[civic iris]

I envy that, wish I had the H3 helmet man
