i mean, clearly no tbut the lengths you're going to do not sound normal or healthy.
Rev I am about to recommand a shock collar that sinc up with your alarm.
my brother is worse, everyone wakes up to his alarm except him
I’ve somehow taught myself how to do this while still asleep
???
y'all are wild
i set my alarm. it goes off. i might snooze it once.
but then i get up lol
Then set his alarm for the time you wanna wake up, simple
I've slept through a rocket attack, but yet I'll wake up because someone opened my door a half inch.
Clearly you are the mature working adult in this conversation 
where were you stationed again??
Al Udeied
my dad has slept through a hurricane before. and most recently the entire FD and ambulances and cops at the neighbor's for a house fire
Nellis, Al Udeied, Al Dhafra
qatar?
Qatar and then the UAE
We get regular earthquake here and I don't think I have ever been awake to actually feel one.
It's too bad I never got to go to Dubai.
Dhabi was neat, though everyone with me had terrible taste and wanted... American food.
Like, bruh, try literally anything else
Next year there's a chance I'll move to the capital city, Ciudad de México. Maybe I'll feel a September 19th earthquake :)
(I've never felt one before of any kind)
Sometimes people just want a taste of home, right?
🤨 fair
Seriously what sort of absolute monster wants to eat at a freaking Texas Roadhouse in Qatar
I'm actually still mad about that
It's not like I'm wishing harm on others. That is a byproduct of earthquakes, but I just want to know what it feels to be in one.
It's not that complicated.
underwhelming
the same sort that goes to dunkin donuts in abu dhabi
¯_(ツ)_/¯
(i was tired of arab food)
I mean I can forgive coffee and donuts tbh
But then I usually have a taste for foods I've never tried. I'd rather experience everything I can.
Something something bull about 'life is fleeting, try everything' etc etc
I see Trench and I can relate, though in different topics.
looks like I'm choosing chaos
Do you have any roommates?
I'm not entirely objectionable in my existence.
nope
Good, because that's one way to get evicted
15,972
Dnyf how do I beat the hammer part
Run.
who
You can cheese him by standing on the doorway of a door.
Of escharum fight after u destroy last relay
Cheese is for the sad.
I gotta do it mentally, it won't go away so I can use my calculator lol
unless I whip out a pen and paper
Can I pick up his cannon and use it against him?
I wish the witch doctor and that was in diablo 4
use your thrusters, just hit him and evade until you can go back in without taking damage
or this I guess, never seen it
if anything spinning will be more help for campaign
You walk there
@regal chasm help
And don't die
Wait. Echarum or the boss of the excavation site?
Escharum
lol sonic boom from F-16 had people worried earlier today
Just destroyed last relay and he dropped his splitter cannon and equipped his hammer
Oh I got nothing on that one. Keep your disctance and run in circler making sure that he has to go around corners to somehwat slow him down.
I never really found any way to cheese him since I never struglled with him.
You usually get a checkpoint when he start using his hammer so it's somewhat forgiving.
I can’t beat his hammer part even with running circles
Yeah I have it but I keep dying
I go pick up a turret and get smacked from behind out of nowhere
wait. y'all had that too?
The turret will probably slow you down too much for this fight. You are better off using normal weapons. The needler does wonder imo.
Really? Even on legendary?
It's really weird having to explain why people might be protesting at a National Guard base to people who've been there for longer than you have.
Yes. It's effective cause accuracy isn't really an issue due to it's tracking. Run, turn around and try to super combine him and keep running/grappling away.
How come I can’t seem to grapple slide anymore now that he switched to hammer?
Weird I can now maybe bug?
Wym
I’m struggling even with needler🥺

Hmm
Halo official server poker night when
Oh I forgot. When dealing with hammer wielding bosses, use the grapple on the ceiling to get away. It's somewhat effective at getting out of it's aoe.
I try that and still die to his hammer cause of how he jumps at u from across the room
Halo official server gartic phone night when
want
And the ceiling too high in escharum arena
Yo I beat him by grabbing his cannon at start and trapping him in a corner and spamming him with it
Got achievement for it
Is legends a rare achievement or normal?
Titan how do I get the Easter egg for tank gub
What’s the achievement description
You need to do it while you are clearing Tremonious
Can’t do it unless you pop a new save
Hello! If anyone’s interested in playing this weekend just send me a dm!
Yes but what do I have to do for the Easter egg? Gonna try to get find it first on my normal run for collecting everything then on legendary for that achievement with all skills active

Wait
Near the beginning of the campaign, there's a secret portable tank cannon weapon that is really powerful and you can bring with you through the whole campaign! It'll make Legendary super easy! #Halo #HaloInfinite #HaloInfiniteCampaign

Tank gun's an achievement now?
Hmnb
At the end he was just a soldier. Hoping he’d done the right thing.
Yeah
I don’t know if you only get that one on legendary or not
But I know you get it after killing Escharum
Wait I follow generalkidd. Yeah I got it for killing him. It says only 10.29% of players have gotten it
Does tank gun have infinite ammo or have to be refilled?
I think that’s just because only 10% of halo players have gotten that far?
Idk it was like 0.5% when I got it lol
let me look on halopedia
Yeah
I just looked it up
it’s whenever you kill Escharum
so only 10.29% of people who have ever played Halo Infinite have done so
So chief showed him respect because even though he tried to kill him he was a soldier just like chief?
And ooo so what does that mean about how hard the fight is?
Specifically the dynamic between Escharum and Chief
Escharum highly respected the legend of the Master Chief
It means that 90% of Halo Infinite players haven’t played the Halo Infinite campaign any significant amount
lol
Yeah especially with how he builds up to the fight with chief
So the harbinger is easier than he was?
Mainly because no one plays single player anymore. I still play single player. I’m still stuck in the 2000s
I think a lot of people only got maybe half way through the campaign before quitting and just went to multiplayer instead
On Legendary?
No, the Harbinger is painful
on LASO? It’s easier
Ok so what weapons should I use for the silent auditorium mission
LASO is legendary all skulls on?
Yes
Anyone have a guide or like collectibles map for the collectibles?
Well you have to eat the sandwich. The skulls you have to pick up. And the dolls just come to life when you leave the area
Um what sandwich
Gollum Sweep when
There’s a chieftain in that fight that’s a pain
mmm homemade stuffed peppers 😋
So bandana in skull to get in silent auditorium and it says
Bandana
Skull
Play the mission "Silent Auditorium" without killing any Sentinels. There will be a hallway towards the end with an elevator and a door straight ahead. If you didn't kill (or harm?) any Sentinels, the door will be open. If not, the door is gray.
Chieftains, from my legendary almost all skulls experience, can take all direct hits from a fully loaded rocket launcher and not die
Yep
@fickle drift
Luckily most of the enemies in that level are banished. The sentinels only really appear on like that one bridge
Ooo
Do I have to clear out the banished to progress or can I try grappling through?
you can try grappling
corny
went AFK and came back to this @vapid siren
Why can’t I post on clan corner ? I need assistance lol
Goodnight
For server moderation concerns, please message @bleak yoke.
Hey
Hello Everyone!
Hi
I really like the gravity hammer. I discovered it a few days ago!
Howdy
Hello!
New Halo player?
Yes
Do you play on infinit as well? also thanks 😄
Have you tried any of the other hammers in infinite yet?
They’re pretty fun
Wait... there is more?
Yes!
How do I find them 😄
There’s the Rushdown Hammer and the Diminisher of Hope. The Rushdown hammer can be found in loot caves on the BTB map fragmentation. Diminisher of hope is only in campaign and I think a fiesta btb mode?
Oh wow. I Just started. I have No idea howto find that stuff but I shall try! 😄
Check my profile activity
Okay is there a way to talk on Halo using my headset and microphone? I feel like it doesn't work, I have it active. but when I play no one seems to be talking
You can but rarely do others use theirs
So on fragmentation on the sides of the map are these weird doors. You can go up to them and there is a console next to them. You can hack that console using your AI and enter the cave. The loot inside is randomized so it may take a few tries to get a hammer 🙂
^ if it’s in custom game modes this also works
wait are those in rotation right now?
Nice
Super Escalation isn’t afaik
I have been playing Super Fiesta it's my favorite mode. But so far I haven't seen any other hammers. Or maybe I have and just don't realize it XD
The Rushdown has a massive shock wave..Diminisher of hope has this weird red static effect
Pretty sure the diminisher has more range
No clue
Is that the one that has the glowing red saber thing attached to it?
Yes
OOOH.. Yeah I like that one too.
You use pc or Xbox?
PC
Perfect with a commando?
Someone was AFK and I did all of the criteria for perfect THREE TIMES and got JACK
GG. I just like smashing people with hammers.
🫠
be nice
My bad but still dude it’s not fair
I didn’t miss a shot and got the one tap headshot kill
Medge, which mode do you play?
oh
I didn’t get the medal in the first place
I can try to play that.... But I will die a lot... I have horrible aim.. unless its with a hammer... then I got you 😄
unless I'm aiming with the tracking launcher I ain't hitting nothing
As soon as I finish this (if I do) I’m never picking it back up
Either you’re rapid fire or you’re precision literally pick one
I like to sneak attack people sometimes too :D... Nooo Medge don't give up! I believe in you!
same
Idk I’ve tried it on people who aren’t even moving and I’m not getting the medal I just don’t know like how do I improve
I did everything right
well I just started playing halo... im not good at it yet. but is there any way I could try to help you?
No you’re fine I really appreciate it though
I honestly just want to play Siesta mode and sneak attack people with the gravity hammer :D... oh and challenge people with cars to a dule... I mostly lose though
A siesta is a sleep
A fiesta is a party
important difference
Oh
YOU KNOW THE MUSIC IS GOOD TITAN DON'T LIE TO YOURSELF
oops
yes
Neat
I really wish I was better at that game tbh
I'm good enough to never really die
But I brute force things rather than finesse them
I’m gonna post the clips I was talking about to the halo infinite thing so you guys can literally see that I am being ROBBED
Yeah I know, why do you think I wear a Balaclava
Some 343 dev is sitting there waiting for me to find a commando and then making absolutely sure I don’t get the achievement
Sounds like a fun job honestly
I've been playing the long game but you caught me
(he’s not)
😮
Night
O7


I mean if your still online and playing by the time I’m off work I can play some with you and let you actually talk to someone in game lol
Oh Im still online lol
haha that would be great!
I still got a little bit till I’m off work but like I said if I get home your on (and I don’t pass out) we can play some lol
Souds awesome! If I dont pass out in the next our XD
And another thing is why do I keep falling through the floor?
It’s SO annoying and has cost me a game two times now
I do that too... But that's because I don't pay attention to where I am going and I fall into the void below
No like
My game puts my camera under the ground but my spartan is actually standing above ground
It’s a visual glitch and on the enemies screen I’m right in front of them, yet on my screen I am phasing through the floor
oh, Yeah I have no idea how to fix that... Though... I am not qualified to answer questions of that complexity yet. I am noob 😛
Heh you’re fine
I don’t expect anyone to know problems I just wanna say something about it
I love this game to bits and I wish these easy fixes weren’t messing up the experience
Especially since my best friend is just now loving this game and I’d like to keep it that way because there aren’t many games that the both of us have and enjoy
I feel that.
Well The Ending Challenge For Weekly Isn't Working For Me & Friends So Giving Up On That Reward.
If I can help I will... But also... I have no idea what that is.
It worked for me
Didn't Count When We Killed AFK Players
oh,
Have To Switch Weapon To A Pistol For Kill
Are you sure your damaging the enemies to shields pop and then using one shot with the pistol to get the kill as a headshot?
AR With Shields Down Then One Shot To Head With Pistol
has to be AR or plasma rifle to melt the shields, then swap to a pistol for the headshot kill
They Die
Ok I see the problem
When they say shoot the chest they mean closer to the neck not the stomach
I was going around the chest area but killing in 7-8 shots when I should be killing in 5-6
Whatever people go AFK all the time
I’m just gonna let this sit on the back burner and eventually I’m sure I’ll find SOMEONE afk
And then I can shaft this weapon to the dumpster it belongs in
NO!! Way To Many AFK Player In Halo Already
Yeah that’s good for me
Not like I’m gonna get this on someone moving
Absolutely no way I’m good enough with this gun
This Challenge Isn't For Average Gamers
The shock rifle is one of my best guns and I still literally got watt say you by the fattest stroke of luck
So give me a gun I’m bad with and an arguably harder challenge?? Yeah someone’s gotta sit still for that one
I Keep Accidently No Scoping Players With Shock Rifle. Play Tactical Slayers Way Too Much
Ok id argue the shock rifle one is objectively harder but not for me
At this point I may as well just load in, find a commando, and use exclusively it for a bunch of matches
It would suck but it would eventually work
Yeah Me & Friends Gave Up After A Hour Not Counting Onces
Only guns I’m bad with now are sniper and shock and that’s because I’m coming back from a semi hiatus so it is what it is
Other Players Think Its Desyning But Didn't Feel Like It
Commando is great if you hit consistent headshots and pace yourself
And the sidekick…..well is the sidekick I can’t say much
I Miss Sidekicks In Tactical Slayer
Commando def takes some time to learn (and I would argue it got nerfed a bit too hard and should have slightly less bloom now) but man it can shred
his knees are backwards 😭
yes

Who was at dreamhack Dallas this year?
patrons
people hurry get in the way I am committing man burger helper
i can play this game all night
its the middle of the day

Was Athlon (helmet for Mirage IIC) part of an event I missed? Or is it unreleased?
unreleased as of yet
Damn, I like it
I'm sure we'll see it
Every time I see thngs
I want to be sarcastic
But then people forget I can be sarcastic
Is Aegis’s profile pic just not loading for me or is it the discord default one
Jimmy Butler wins Game 2 of the NBA Finals!
Not loading
New banner is nice Aegis
Ok
Do you guys have any other AI generated Spartan concept art photos? I fell in love with the design of a bunch of them and would like to see what other combinations are possible
I’m gonna sit here and get on and do nothing but play halo quick play and every time I find a commando I’m gonna use only it until I die, end the game, or get the achievement
AI Generated anything is degenerate and awful.
the AI halo concept art scares me so much
like, Uncanny Vally type scare or “oh, god, is this the future??” type scare?
Just as an artist it scares me in general
agreed
I mean when looking at the AI sketches it is pretty funny seeing it completely miss the mark when generating the weapons
Hi
Guess which Guardian is mine 😎
one thing it still isn’t good at, thankfully
Love those players who open their mouths but they’re on the bottom of the leaderboard
i just realized BTB heavies isnt in the game. whens it coming back
Aegis, you changed your PFP, and it confused me lol
Pride guardian I presume
No matter what tho, I very much like
@snow cape
For Iron Banner, I choose to look like your non-traditional, non-serious look 
I like it lol
Season 4 kinda looks fun I'll admit
kinda been worrying though about what people have been saying about it being “fast paced” though
it’s either the time limit is short, people are just fast in general, or the infected are really strong
and I wonder if this “Infection” will spill into other playlists too since IRATUS is taking over the whole mp operation
Anywho yeah S4 looks hella cool
I did not expect Xavier to pop up on the halo server at all
Seriously people don’t understand how good we have it with 343 tbh.
That depends on who’s saying that
I decided to start binging it
rip message
Rippp
One thing I’m really liking with 343 is communication. Not a lot of devs and rarely if ever sit down with the community and do discord calls
Faxxx tho
Only took 14 years to gain the community’s trust it seems
lol
Sadly but hey at least we got here💀
something is really changing tho
I mainly blame Infinites shortcomings on upper management and Microsoft. I know 343 is full of passionate people who truly care about Halo and what it means to people
Once they get down consistent updates. I think we'll be heading in a very positive direction.
Tbh they've changed since then
For the better, of course
Yep
DM me the word frog
toad

Master cheeks
Kinda new to the Halo franchise all things considered so I kinda just roll with 343 I guess?
I started playing when MCC was getting rolled out onto PC
and it was like in the middle of lockdown too
kinda crazy how fast I’ve grown so attached to this franchise tho lol
Ahh well for pretty old fans the frustration is even worse because we've dealt with them for so long and they had so much untapped potential and failed in a lot of ways sadly.
Oh I totally get it. I’ve looked back on a lot of things posted on the internet when learning more about Halo and how much it meant to people
Buttttt infinite has been promising since season 3
I totally get where people are coming from
hello Spartans
Yea it's super frustrating sometimes, but I try to stay optimistic
Waddup
Things get better over time, like wine.
can't believe Faze won ^w^
I haven’t been around long enough to really make an argument tbh.
I get people’s frustrations but I kinda just roll with the punches now at this point
DM me the word "Frog" for a secret surprise that is cool and amazing and tree!!
Despite me being pretty new, I got the lucky opportunity of playing the original H3 matchmaking before it shut down. The only legacy thing I have is a H3 Mythic MP disc. I gotta say, that night was almost magical in a way of how people connected with each other and when running to Infinite, it feels barren and soulless if that makes sense? Something is definitely missing but I really don’t wanna be an arm chair dev lol
and yeah I looked at crowbcats halo videos but I don’t think those really say much now because uhh literally almost everyone mentioned in those videos aren’t even apart of 343 anymore
Such a good game even to this day its a solid fps on mcc
H3 and Infinite are tied for my most fav Halo games
Do not message frog to that mf
what happened
I have to tell people to say frog im my dms
Bueno
I aint doing allat🗣️
“🐜”
I think a colony of ants using discord would be funny
bet
Imagine getting banned by an ant💀
lol
Dead server
Ok
💀
that is a mantis. Not an ant. >:[
Do any servers you are in have ants running them?
So much cringe
I got my own server
Haven’t seen this used in a long time 
speaking of mantis pLEASE BRING IT BACK WOLVERINE SOBBING HOLDING framed photo type needing
i supposedly have another dad
sick
👍🏾
Can i have one of your dads
Eerm no 🐜
can I be one of them?
I’m gonna raise them good. 500K of them. Then release them into the city of new york
I want a terrarium
okay fr tho having an ant colony sounds sick
antman
Ur cringe
and I 'm one of them
From what i’ve seen they look cool
I saw this video on Twitter recently
show me
show us
Hold on i’m not done explaining
These guys put 10 tons of concrete down an ant hole over the course of 3 days
there are ants on the line
Give her a minute, jeez lol
They basically mapped out the entire ant hill with the concrete
A little antsy are we?
Wait I saw something similar to that
Alright now i’ll get the video
it was like.. silver liquid stuff
It’s a neat video
poured into an ant hill
Molten aluminum
Yeah that
it’s so cool how it all branches out
I mean thousands died
very sad day
Worth it 
but a small price to pay for salvation
For a good cause
From: Ants! Natures Secret Power
A giant ant colony is pumped full of concrete, then excavated to reveal the complexity of its inner structure.
wait what that’s a person
the ant hill was abandoned
:)
no way it’s that big what
it was a kilometer deep
WHAT??????
and several acres across
thats huge
Honestly incredible
The fact that could literally be under my house and swallow my foundation whole
it’s been known to happen.
the ants of Detroit are ruthless
They took my lunch money

This is the Halo server, ran and owned by 343 Industries
substitute the skull rmoji
I is aware. But pls put like a master chief helmet with 343 on it. It would like cool
we need Steve in a discord stage at some point panda I’m begging you I know you got connections
maybe next month :)
Superintendent? Is that like admin
There are lots of Steves in the world
I’m sure I can find one
I know the Halo Archive had Jeff Steitzer in a stage once
John halo guy
and I think Marcus Lehto in another
More like trial moderator :-)
until I stepped in
It is currently midnight in the united states, which is where most of this server’s population is
lone wolf strikes again
I am the second worst thing to happen to this discord
I'm in Oceania so still morning
I think they mean Steve Downes
Master Chief voice guy
can we get halo reach dlc?
13 years later?
I keep forgetting how to type his last name and I didn’t want to sound like a moron lol
bit of an interesting time to do it
Yes! Halo Reach soloes so hard
Uuhmmmm MCC mayhaps????
1 AM here, so close to for me
no infinite. MCC is like alr reach included
So maybe have like a challenge to get noble 6 armour set
coz noble 6 soloes
infinte melees, is it just my internet connection, or they still wonky as all get out?
I feel like I'm gonna get muted soon.
More than likely the desync issue
i go toe to toe with someone and somehow get backsmacked and mine doesnt register
N ono no we are getting off topic we need to keep talking about ants
anteater
yesg
not quite sure what that is, but feel like melees been CRAZY since day 1, no solution or just something not being worked on?
is halo inf graphically demanding?
that's very big
That’s a hard question to answer. On what settings? What resolution? What are you doing in the game?
Networking terminology. They’re actively working on it. I’ve been told they have “top men” trying to fix it
building an ant colony in forge like they should
I kinda want to make an ant colony map modeled after Rat Race now
I will pay you
I have not started the game at all. It's the multiplayer thing. Xbox app says that it should run great. But when I boot the game, it says I need 3050 gpu
where am I gonna get a 3050 gpu for a 200 dollar laptop
I wanna join
Is there something wrong with my laptop or halo inf graphics requirement?
What GPU do you have?
stock intel. I'm broke so
ah
Yeah, good luck
I don’t think you’ll be able to run the game very well… or at all
Well, it’s a modern AAA game
Yeah I had a match where my Lunge wasn’t working when I was right in front of him
What day mean?
Imagine it like the most recent Battlefield or Call Of Duty
So super high graphic
Highly doubt it. Linus tech tips tried for under 500 budget. Couldn't get halo to run
I haven’t checked the minimum recommended specs recently
maybe I'll try again with the download
the 1660 used is about $100
with other used stuff it should run
any CPU can theoretically run any GPU
How much you bottleneck will vary
If it’s a 10+ year old i5, then not very well
like fps?
if it’s a more recent one, then it will run better
I see
Depends heavily on resolution, graphics settings, drivers, background tasks, and other things
But you could probably run 60 FPS using a 1660 with a 5~ year old i5
or newer
@ 1080p
60 fps is benchmark
I can get about 50-60 FPS in-match with a GTX 1050 and an 8th gen i7
At this rate I'll prolly buy a pc from Amazon or sum
nice
I recommend BuildRedux or Xotic
it's prolly coz old CPU Ur getting 50-60. If u get like newer gen, it might get 70-80
Both have their own websites
what ABT allied stinger
never heard of it so probably stay away
ok
Ty for pc advice Titan the trial mod
I'm good with pcs but I need info on the game that's all
nice
I think I've been dipping to about 45 sometimes, but 50 is a consistent estimate
I am planning to upgrade when I get a desktop
Currently have an ASUS Tuf Gaming
Ye
I’d be willing to spec out a whole desktop for you for free if you are willing to build the thing
Also it is currently 1:30
I'm planning to upgrade to a 3080 TI or 3090 when I get a desktop
at this rate I’ll end up like Dynf
I'd be alright with that
I'll be a few years prolly before I get my act together to buy the thing, but I can also send you a PC build I've made, tomorrow prolly, since I don't feel like looking at it rn
If you aren’t buying parts literally tomorrow then there’s no reason to make a list for it
:-)
with that wrapped up, i’m heading to bed
got a headache from being on my phone all day
Ight, cya
I WOKE UP LATE
I see we both are awake lol
Ima be heading out soon tho
I don't want to say I told you so...
||So I won't, I hope your day goes well||
Random thought/question
Do y'all ever have times where you swear your computer keyboard autocorrects?
I just had that happen to me
I thought I capitalized a letter, but I didn't
I will now head out, bc my laptop is dying, but I'll be back later
Sometimes I do
Wait if halo infinite takes in 2560 and the halo reach ending speech takes place in 2589. Does that mean humanity survives the banished
Yes
That means they’re in the future
We don’t know if the eulogy by Dr. Halsey is specifically in 2589 but Reach was slowly being rebuilt by then so it’s safe to say humanity is still alive
What if 90% of humanity died fighting the covenant/vanished and won, stopping wars and things like that.
wars will never stop
also humanity fought the banished on reach before the events of zeta halo
there were already people living on that planet before this began
Idk man, sounds something a cod player would say
.....
Cute boys
Exactly what a cod player would say
I never would of guessed
Did someone delete the BTB channels
Dude…. I don’t condon leaving matches….but Jesus Christ bro
Solo queing just isn’t something I should ever do again
If ain’t some absolute literal new players or afk bots on my team it’s a entire sweat team on the opposite team
I had a team today that stood there looking at the dude shoot me, and didn't do anything. It was funny and I hated it.
hello
I had a team where they played worse than the Bots
IIRC the Eulogy isn't even considered canon.
Because it didn't really make much sense for Halsey to be the one saying it.
Hello what you get while boosting server?
Nothing
We're partnered and verified, so boosting has no effect here
Best to save boosts for servers that would benefit :)
So when are we getting a traditional halo? We've had 3 halo games where they did everything but a traditional halo game. How about we drop the spaghetti codes that let you fly around and make something that's good, works, and is content complete
Ah yes
Drop the spaghetti code for the famously totally not spaghetti coded Halo 2
Hello, pot? Yes, it's the kettle again. Yes, he's back.
brother movement physics is not spaghetti code
i stg the term has just lost all meaning
that and desync
Honestly going by the wording of that statement, I think he's just straight up hating on any Halo that's ever existed, considering the code that let super bouncing and sword flying exists.
halo 2 doesnt really have spaghetti code, it was just the result of the game being made in just 10 months
Which is caused by actual movement related 'spaghetti code'
unpolished would be the word for it
Don't lie to me, you aren't good at it.
yea youre right, im just bad at it...
lmao
the reason i said what i said is because every halo game that hasnt followed the original gameplay has been so succesfully bad its put a franchise as big as halo into the mud. i just want an old style, content complete on day one, halo game again, is that too much to ask?
ok lets just end the spaghetti stuff tho because any decently sized company would have code structure and styleguides

Bad is subjective
Infinite is solid though
4, 5 and Infinite have been very successful games
its biggest issues are networking, which at this point seems to be outside 343's control in many areas, and UI which is constantly being worked on
sure they are, i mean look at all the people playing them, they skyrocketed the popularity of the franchise like never before stckr
look boss is there an endgame here beyond just sounding like your average r/halo user
like this is all some reddit tier takes that are a dime a dozen
an affirmation maybe that we get a classic halo
Gaining attention is the objective sir.
also whats r/halo?
Reddit halo
ah
i'll just take my nostalgia and hope for a new game away, hope you all have a good day
Bored at work lol
It was never announced lol
They had concepts for it iirc and it looked so cool
Day 673 of asking for season 3’s menu soundtrack on Spotify
And season 2’s, can’t forget that banger too. Release them 343 
I'm still seething over Spartan Games dying out with their dreams of a turn based tabletop Naval game.
and the first multiplayer trailer music
the community seems pretty passionate in keeping that game alive at least
that's kinda ironically though lol
Wait what
i really want Starfighter back
there's a whole halo tabletop server dude
🥺
How am I only just now learning of that
Wtf!
they keep it very lowkey
Anyone have an idea why stockpile isnt on oasis btb map lol
who cares it sucks lol

fr
So is there a H3A going around??
what do you mean
Idk this is what I heard in other cords
I don't know what you mean by "going around"
Don't be gay amigo, be straight.
-Random spanish cashier at kfc
Official, no. Fan made, maybe.
Will the new career rank starting in S4 carry over any of the current matches/time played? Or starting fresh?
starting fresh probably
Thats ok. I've played over 3,500 matches, i can do it agan. lol
that's the spirit!
Or it could be cool if you've played over, say, 1,000 matches it boosts you up a little in the start
doubt that
why
aegisfate you turned to the dark side?
who said I was ever light side 
ah very good point sir
we might find out in the career progression blog today
no leaks
maybe the system can take a % of the games you've completed and factor it in somehow?
I feel like it should give something for allthose games we've played
soon or something
today yes
nice.
I feel like people should have a quote list in their phones notes but its all from cashiers
June 20th is so far away and yet so close
The satisfaction of completion, an achievements list and all the memories of fun times
alas
a little something at least? lol 🙂
but yea
its been fun.
Yeah an weapon charm reward
UCL in 3 days
...
Cool :)
k
👍🏻
but you have to remember to get spanish cashiers they have the best bars
Hot take: they should make a halo game set during the unsc vs insurrectionists war. It would be interesting to see how they would handle a human v human conflict.
I would applaud it, but im pretty sure the next step will just be "safe" bets..
I don’t know if the writers would be willing to take the risk to write such a dark story.
Can an rtx 4060 laptop handle infinite maxed
The writers are willing, but you got 0 chance on it being a game, if you havent noticed, John-117 is turning into the powerfantasy isekai protagonist who wakes up after a long sleep being the ultimate omega chad
that would be super cool but unlikely
I would like a side game like that tho, something like reach and ODST were
I wish we saw the human side of him more.
they really made a hot garbage charm huh?
Wait what
im exaggerating but yeah the main menu runs hotter than being in a game for me, your 4060 will be perfectly fine
the halo reach charm
What fascinated me, is that Cortana, an AI, showed more emotion then a indoctrinated child soldier, of course you had the silent faceless but storywise he only knew war
My favorite soldier in a game is that guy from crysis
that game had some nice setpieces..
Chief also functioned as a player insert which would also explain the silence in gameplay. The same type of player insert is used in metal gear v.
random thought, but I'm surprised Halo never went with drones or droids in this universe at least in the games.
like jeff says, from a character perspective he's kinda cookiecutter though
ODST had drone aircraft
also they had the bumblebee I think
I seriously hate shooting droids, drones or whatever flying hockeypucks
the honeybee https://www.halopedia.org/OQ-45_Honeybee
The OQ-45 Honeybee is a state-of-the-art surveillance drone utilized by the United Nations Space Command. At some point following the launch of an Outpost Discovery on Earth in late 2553 Honeybees were used to allow civilians in attendance to remotely experience the exploration of a Halo ring in a Remote Reconnaissance Display Capsule.
that looks whack
This would be really good from the rebel POV
From UNSC pov it would be light playing the halo campaign against only grunts
This has always been the case with Chief. Even the Rookie and Noble 6.
I do get the feeling he was part of a /team/bigger organisation where he was the best but also got lucky being at the right place and time
those are cool, but how bout a little kill droid that Chief could deploy, lol. then call it something similar to star wars.
The setpieces were also related to him doing his part in a bigger picture
In CE, they literally wake Chief up because he's the badass supersoldier dude who will mow everyone down. It's always been about the power fantasy.
Yes we could even have oni do war crimes in the story to have the player see the grey area in the conflict.
You focus on the badass supersoldier, I focus on him being the best of a select group of supersoldiers, where a lot have bitten the dust
he's not really the best of them though
I am pretty sure the writers from the TV-show were thinking the same as you
In ODST, the Rookie is the "strong, silent type" that gets the job done solo until the big finale.
In Reach, Noble Six is a "hyper lethal vector" who is supposed to be better than the rest.
They make it a point to say that these guys are the best of the best.
the only thing he really excels at is having good luck
I thought he thinks George is better
hm, he's not King of the Hill?
or maybe I'm not remembering his name right
he's Halo 4: King of the Hill: Fueled by Mountain Dew
with a doritos ai chip
They are the best of the best in a backdrop where you need a Spartan to down an Elite, because every normie and his sister gets slaugthered, not to mention that, in all their glory and wannabe godhood, theyre cannonfodder in the machine called the UNSC
That's cool. I don't get how that means that Halo has never always specifically targeted delivering a power fantasy through its protagonists.
If anything that only enhances it. You're part of an underdog group, but you're the one thing that will stop the threat.
Because it touched on some topics like abduction, indoctrination, facism and most importantly, the things you need to do to survive in wartimes, even the Sanghili had this religious cult thing going on. What do we have now? Hero protagonist shoots big bad bully.
Who remembers the “halo killer” hex.
Those things weren't touched on in the games. They were footnotes at best. The extended lore touched on that stuff.
If you look at halo at surface level it’s just good guy shoots bad guy.
oh I forget the whole eugenics thing with Halsey..
there are no bright sparkles there
Also not a topic covered in the games
no twinkling stars
Thats why I enjoy the first Starship Troopers movie so much
He's not the best tho lol
Fine, doesnt change the point im trying to make
ah, so sort of like the auto turret thingies in 3 and the whatchamacallits in 4?
the thing go whirrrrrrrrrrrr bwaaa?
that's the one
Going back to a normal controller is much harder than I thought it'd be
Banished incinerator when
Did u guys spend longer on Truth and rec LASO, library LASO, or 2B LASO? Im at Library rn so idk if it’s easier or anything
@hasty zinc luv ur pfp dude
chief literally described as mid but has plot armor
Banished morbius when

thanks!
it's a fantastic book cover art
wait isnt this that argentinian film
im right though
its right there
yeah its gonna be on the back
ok that failed
That’s the new book right?
yeah
Awesome, I love the Didact lol
Wasn’t Project: Rubicon in Halo: Hunters in the Dark?
I've started Rubion Protocol like 3 times now
Didact in a hood gives me intense Sith Lord vibes
I read very fast but I just get distracted and stop reading
Same, I did that with Bad Blood I think
I can read books fast too, I just need the motivation
Has to be interesting
I think if I had the physical copy of the book I wouldn't have that issue, but since it's digital I get distracted by notifications and other apps and just go on tangents unrelated to reading the book
Yes, that is an issue for me too. However, if every halo book had an audiobook version, then I would be invested
i have a kindle that's not linked to any kind of service except the ability to buy/read books
works pretty well for avoiding distractions
that rubicon has nothing to do with the titular Rubicon Protocol
I has iPad, me is using iPad
Ah ok
the Infinite audio logs are the thing most connected to TRP novel
also re: didact's appearance - they had a lot of attention to detail with the cover, the Didact's appearance there is based almost 1:1 on the concept art for him in H5
and it still missed out some of the most important parts of the book
his concept art is sick
reminds me of ultron
I only read Hunters in the Dark, I listened to Hunters in the Dark, New Blood, Battle Born, & Battle Born: Meredian Divide
while I'm very excited for a new book, I'm also worried that the book will finally close the chapter on Didact (pun not intended)
Thank you for depressing me
😦
damn, if that's all you've read then you only have an uphill climb to go in terms of quality
I am now happy
I’m not too big on books tbh, all I’ve read are Percy Jackson, and those few Halo books
Kill chief off too in the book!!!!
I mean I guess they could go the robot body like 343GS, but then is it really the didact at that point?
i'd check out the core Nylund novels - those are generally the most solid quality bar for the series as a whole
you definitely started off with some of the (generally-considered) weaker entries
Okay
Rly?
Fall of Reach through First Strike are a very solid trio to get you into the universe and cover all of the bases
My whole life til I got my iPad I would agree, but now I have a better device
Oh well, I guess I only used it to play Minecraft so, that makes sense lol
I didn’t know there was a difference lol, mb
Eink
Not led screen or whatever
Kindle Oasis – With 7” display and page turn buttons https://a.co/d/7kqGx9O
Very different, I didn’t know there were different types of kindles lol
I still don't think that Didact pulls off the hood.
Oh yeah I bet you can’t get through the Simirillion
Is the new book post-infinite?
your pfp is legendary cultured one
lol
lol
the Didact one? we don't have a clear idea of when it's set
at minimum, it's post-Next 72 Hours, so any time after mid-2557 (ish)
Alternate timeline maybe 
Outcasts is not post-Infinite though - it's in 2559
Jk
welp. I just read the description on waypoint "Thus begins the Didact’s great journey—the final fate of one of the galaxy’s most enigmatic and pivotal figures."
Lol so he dies then
Does the weekly challenge count in super fiesta?
For the pistol challenge?
Yea
You need a pistol. It can count but you get random weapon loadout
Ok thanks just want to make sure that kind of pistol counts
Play quick play
Thanks
Use ar to take out shields then switch to pistol
I'm generally a bad player but done that and got 6 draws in 1 match
Why would I want to
What is ur fav halo (subjective)?
Spartan Strike is the only correct answer
i know people meme on those games, but they're really fun
It’s the hardest book to read lol
I kinda want to re-read Enders Game but knowing the ending would make it less fun I think
Can confirm. Spartan strike was a nice change in play style
the first readthrough without knowing the ending was incredible
is spartan strike removed from the app store?
I didn't bother watching the movie because I didn't want to ruin the images I had in my head from the book
My only complaint with Spartan strike is that is gives me gamer score but does not appear as “played” in my Xbox profile
Have you read the Bean books?
correct, they're on steam, xbox app on PC and on xbox proper
I have not
Id grab from there library!
is it just called Bean?
Ender’s Shadow
bro is ss still in app store
People still go the library in 2023
Oh I hate the extended ones
hello
Too sci-fi for me
I was confused and found this

what time is the blog post dropping today? 🙂
Whenever I get to it lol

alright cool lol
maybe enough time has passed where I can watch the EG movie
I cba
I don’t think I can go back to making grilled cheese on a stovetop
Y'know I hope they make the progression system like OG Reach
Sandwich press is too good
Complete with the XP Caps and making certain ranks wildly out of XP scale with the surrounding ranks
I think that'd really help people remember the good ol times of Reach
I return, having just woken up
Bring back bungie
Because they provided to me a childhood experience that can never be replicated
time to let go
Remember boys sometimes it isn’t the experience itself that made it worthwhile but more of the memories you make from it
@nocturne parrot do you have 69 billion? If so buyout bungie from sony then donate the company to microsoft.
