Hmm

I helped this man’s build his current rig

[muted rose]

I will tolerate this information

[gritty musk]

I’m either gonna go cry or at the least beg for the chair, I’m not above begging

[daring path]

I must ask a question

[normal owl]

Wait til you see the thousands who buy off-road capable pickup trucks and only ever drive it on normal commuter roads.

or get backpacks that can survive the elements just to carry their books to class.

or buy watches to tell the same time that their cell phone can. (oh wait that's me )

[bold sparrow]

Military grade resistance bluetooth headphones that they only ever wear to work

[normal owl]

IPx58.7265982 !!

[hexed geyser]

i got gamepass back

[faint mantle]

Then ask it, what are you waiting for, approval?

[muted rose]

Why didn’t it reply to attorney

[muted rose]

This is the worst of those examples. All those are just dumb, this one is sometimes is actually inconvenient and straight up silly

There we go

I know what I’m talking about, I live in a redneck town

They aren’t using these pickups for carrying hay or moving furniture, they’re using them to justify the existence of diesel fuel

And hitting and killing cats and laughing about it, but that’s a different story

[obsidian wyvern]

[jaunty yoke]

The developers are well aware of the criticisms regarding the Mark V's price
What is their answer?

[hasty zinc]

42

[jaunty yoke]

42 is the new price?

Seems fair

[hasty zinc]

42 is the answer to everything

[torpid junco]

Literally stabs you with energy sword

[pliant hatch]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

people are still buying it

[jaunty yoke]

Yesterday on BTB Infection I pressed the trigger, shot my Bulldog, hit the infected right in front of me, and yet it did nothing and the infected killed me instead

[jaunty yoke]

Up until they don't do it anymore

If you at least told me all the earnings from the shop are being used to fund a new campaign or something I'd understand
But it surely is not the case

[amber mirage]

The earnings from the shop are being used to fund future updates, in whatever shape or form they take.

[jaunty yoke]

They don't need 22 dollars to program Grifball in ok

[amber mirage]

They need a lot more

[pliant hatch]

all cosmetics will peak at some point. If they want more money then they should lower it, but we don't know what they'll do

[amber mirage]

I don't think any of their devs would work for $22/hr

[jaunty yoke]

In fact they don't need anything from us at all since Microsoft is their godfather

[amber mirage]

Assuming Microsoft is 100% okay with not making returns on investments

[dreamy stirrup]

this is....not how that works

[torpid junco]

Tbh I feel the prices in the store are justified given how much we have for a free to play

[jaunty yoke]

The campaign was already $60

[hasty zinc]

that doesnt matter

you paid to play campaign

that's totally separate

no relation

[amber mirage]

a single $60 purchase also wouldn't fund game updates for two years

[cedar turret]

I bought dinner here last Sunday why can I not get more food today without paying for it

[torpid junco]

CAMPAIGNS A DIFFERENT STORY

[jaunty yoke]

Like none of you knew this is causing clear bad reputation

[twilit vector]

So i wont get my last paycheck that i was supposed to get tomorrow till next month... I hate those guy

[hasty zinc]

sorry to hear that darksilver

[cedar turret]

No, Just bad arguments

[jaunty yoke]

Might as well let me pay for the campaign armor instead of grinding the ranks

[pliant hatch]

we already had these debates numerous times. Their rep has already been established by people good or bad

[jaunty yoke]

Your rep is not permanent, it gets better or worse depending on what you do

[cedar turret]

You paid for the campaign. A different product than The mp which was free. If you want some of the candy coatings they cost money cause like all products people had to make them and they deserve to be paid for their work

[tight remnant]

I think the campaign could have been longer and more for the price of 60$.

[amber mirage]

And like with all things, if you don't feel it's worth the price, don't buy it until it's a price you want to pay.

[tight remnant]

Thankfully it was a gamepass game as well

[jaunty yoke]

There were also people who worked on making colors and armor pieces in all the previous Halo games since 3 and I wasn't paying for that separately

[pliant hatch]

I doubt they will be hindered by opinions considering everything they've already been through

[cedar turret]

If you don’t like it don’t buy it, but if you go around expecting things for free you’re going to have a bad time.

[torpid junco]

Even then it’s insane how much halo fans act like they understand the process of game development and as if it’s something so easy to manage

[amber mirage]

Because games operated on a completely different economy back then. One that has been pushed out because it is no longer sustainable.

[tight remnant]

Although one could say people did get campaign with expectations that some stuff would be added later but that it never came. Like the weather stuff. And I don't mean wild expectations but things they did talk about or show.

[cedar turret]

That’s true of almost any job. Everything is easy and should be cheap till you have to do it

[jaunty yoke]

I always spoke positively of Halo 4 and 5
I was even willing to wait for the Winter Update when the state of Infinite was at its worst
But I just won't keep a happy face for the store prices

[cedar turret]

Then people actually understand

[hasty zinc]

being an astronaut is EZ, all you have to do is close your eyes while going zoom

anyone can do that

[tight remnant]

I agree about the store prices and situation.

[hasty zinc]

oh no I'm weightless, get real

[amber mirage]

Can't believe my tax money is paying for those astronauts' out-of-this-world salaries.

[hasty zinc]

RIGHT

all they do is look down upon all us groundwalkers like they're better than us

get a real job

[tight remnant]

One thing that annoys me is how people think that infinite just got good because they swaped leaders. Ignoring that there was going to be a slow start before things got back on track at a rapid pace and they don't seem to understand that work had to be done to get to the now more faster and meaty updates.

[cedar turret]

It does cost an absurd amount to get a pound of material into space

[hasty zinc]

so someone pays to send them up AND they get paid too?

cushy job

[tight remnant]

1200$ per pound

[amber mirage]

Why am I spending money on astronauts spending hours on a treadmill all day?

[hasty zinc]

oh look at me I can jog at a slow pace

grow up

[amber mirage]

Paying for their overpriced astronaut ice cream too

[tight remnant]

Isn't astronaut ice cream not actually true?

[hasty zinc]

it's just freeze dried

[tight remnant]

Astronauts don't eat that up there if I recall?

[torpid junco]

We’ll see them laughing when I poke their space suit with a needle

[cedar turret]

Just think someone paid to have the leprechaun shot into space

[hasty zinc]

the space shuttle isn't made out of a balloon

oh suit

hah

[cedar turret]

Have you touched the space shuttle? No, so you don’t know it isn’t inflatable

[hasty zinc]

I've touched a space shuttle engine

does that count

and the sign said do not touch

[jaunty yoke]

I've never criticized the slow updates once because I'm one of the few people in the Halo community that understands game dev is hard
That doesn't mean I'll be happy about having to spending half of the campaign's price for one armor
And you can't "fix" anything by saying "just don't buy it", you're only gonna incentivize more damage
No, not buying cigarettes is not gonna make the planet any cleaner, stop producing them is

[cedar turret]

I have an ex who worked at nasa and never touched the space shuttle. It’s a conspiracy

[amber mirage]

So stop updates on the game?

[tight remnant]

It's not a binary were you have to have overpriced items OR a fairer price/system.

[hasty zinc]

also you don't HAVE to pay anything

[tight remnant]

I think I've probably had other discussions where I've had to repeat it's not a binary. People act like there's only two choices. What we have now, or nothing at all.

[amber mirage]

If the items don't sell, they'll be reduced in price

If they sell, then people are clearly okay with paying for them

[jaunty yoke]

I care more about new maps and modes than anything, and you tell me how many people would still be playing if DLC maps had to be paid for

[amber mirage]

Very few, which is why cosmetic DLC is the best option.

[tight remnant]

It's easy to manipulate people. You definitely can't make that argument about Casinos and stuff that's for sure.

[cedar turret]

Halo 2-4 anyone?

[torpid junco]

I mean it’s your decision ultimately but wouldn’t any profit from the store be beneficial to the game overall?

[tight remnant]

Halo 4 had paid cosmetic DLC

[jaunty yoke]

And it sucked

[tight remnant]

What? Halo 4 cosmetic DLC was great

[cedar turret]

And I bought that one

[amber mirage]

It's entirely optional

[round laurel]

Actually, you absolutely can 'fix' it by not buying them. They're priced the way they are because it gives the largest returns, even if people complain endlessly. Your cigarette example is also flawed. Vaping has become the new main revenue for cig companies because young people stopped buying them, are vapes good for your health? No. Are they better than typical cigarettes? Yes.

Your complaints are just falling on deaf ears at this point, the boat sailed a long time ago.

[tight remnant]

All of this for around ten bucks

[jaunty yoke]

They are just as bad for the planet

10 bucks for all that makes much more sense, and I still didn't buy any of that

MCC gave all that for free

[tight remnant]

In my OPINION that mark V was the best modern one aside from this one

[tight remnant]

Different package thing scenario.

[jaunty yoke]

It's arbitrary

[amber mirage]

It is arbitrary. just like the assessment of prices being fair or not.

[tight remnant]

I think the top 3 items if they were in infinite would be... let me check. Around 34$

Based off the price of the Yoroi superbundle with dragons shoulder

[jaunty yoke]

Halo 7 is not gonna repeat this philosophy and it will be precisely because of the current criticisms

[tight remnant]

Well changes could be made now

[round laurel]

I don't see how Infinite's pricing is wildly different from other games. It seems 'normal. '

[tight remnant]

Although I rather not have halo 7 soon

[jaunty yoke]

It is ´normally´ awful

[round laurel]

It ain't gonna change if people are paying the prices asked...

[jaunty yoke]

This is why there won't be a Fortnite 2

[round laurel]

huh

[tight remnant]

If the conversation does not die down and keeps being ongoing there's a greater chance of impact

[round laurel]

it has been going on for years now though

prices have gotten worse when this conversation first started let's be real

[fickle drift]

Welcome to Gulag

[jaunty yoke]

Lootboxes were forced to disappear, mostly
Live services could very much suffer the same fate

[tight remnant]

Also ridiculous prices for the gaming industry in general are a bad mark on the gaming industry and not something that should be celebrated I'd say

[amber mirage]

Ever since people have complained about cosmetic microtransactions, nobody has ever really provided a viable alternative that keeps both the studios and players happy. As of now, this is the best option.

[fickle drift]

I agree

[round laurel]

that was because of the gambling and children argument IIRC. With overpriced MTX, you get what's advertised.

i could only see live services disappearing if they become too risky for the investment required

and companies are like... yeah, let's just make smaller games and take less of a risk

[amber mirage]

Making smaller games is its own risk now, too

[tight remnant]

Also.. a lot of the money doesn't go to the developers but executives and the sort. Throughout the gaming industry there's been a big problem and even a disconnect between developers and the suits.

[round laurel]

sure, but these live service games require massive teams and when they fail, they fail hard.

[jaunty yoke]

Live services have an inherited flaw that streaming services have
People only want one or two
The more live services start to show up, the less profitable every individual one will be

[round laurel]

sure

[hexed geyser]

should the arbiter get a job at arbys

[round laurel]

sure x2

[fathom knot]

Hi ☺️

[fickle drift]

Yes

[tight remnant]

It's not like having good profits mean the developers get given what they deserve. Despite it supposedly being a great year for games. Over 6200 developers have been laid off this year if I recall correctly.

[fickle drift]

He can serve me my big game burger

[amber mirage]

Even when they aren't live service, a game that flops has little chance of ever making back a return on investment. Live service games tend to reduce that by starting off small and growing over time.

[fickle drift]

WHERE'S MY SAUSAGE?

[jaunty yoke]

That is also what happened in 2007 despite live services not being hot back then
2007 was one of the worst years for gaming when it comes to economics

[fickle drift]

Never watched King of the Hill eh?

[amber mirage]

A lot of those are cases of games and studios not actually pulling in sustainable amounts of revenue.

Those are instances where profits are in fact not good

[tight remnant]

Like at Epic?

[amber mirage]

Yeah

[tight remnant]

Where they're raking...

[fickle drift]

Damn it Bobby why'd ya have to bring that up

[jaunty yoke]

Nintendo doesn't do neither live service games nor massive layoffs
You tell me what they are doing right, and why the rest can't do the same

[amber mirage]

For a while now, we've been spending way more money than we earn - Tim Sweeney

[tight remnant]

Executives don't like to get their pay cut but have no problem saying goodbye to the developers. Such as is the case as with Bungie.

[fickle drift]

Buy Propane~ Hank Hill

[amber mirage]

Nintendo does have live service games, like Splatoon. The advantage they have is sitting on a massive pile of cash in the bank.

[fickle drift]

An

Orange?

[fickle drift]

The word of the wallet is louder than the word of the mouth when it comes to the main Halo team. Most of our vocal impact has been with MCC.

[tight remnant]

Maybe so but it is important for it to be happening nonetheless.

[fickle drift]

Agreed.

[jaunty yoke]

That's as much of a live service as Halo 3 was

[tight remnant]

Are the halo trolli's flavours exclusive?

I had a halo trolli and a normal trolli and they had different shapes and flavours

[wild sleet]

4 Hours of sleep with a Monster can in I feel alive

[foggy karma]

[muted rose]

Not in an hour or two

[wild sleet]

She’ll be right

[fickle drift]

I'd like to add on to my previous statement. For as much flak as I've given the MCC team for playing the world's longest game of Whac-A-Mole, they've given us practically everything we've asked for, both big and small. Consider showing your support by maining MCC.

[tight remnant]

I main infinite

I do want to do the campaigns with a friend though

Also a creator code thing for infinite would be so good. Incentivizes creators which influences more people for the game. Win win

[jaunty yoke]

The MCC has 700 achievements and they are designed to be unlocked through the expanse of many years

I have them all
My MCC is literally completed to the point of burnout
I have no more reasons to keep playing it

[elfin glacier]

creator code users when the destroyer code utilizers walk in

[fickle drift]

I'd argue its fantastic mod support and modding community are reasons to stick around, assuming you are on (or are considering the purchase of) a PC. And bare in mind I'm an adamant console gamer saying this. You have to do your thing, though. As for me, I'm still in the 630+ achievement camp. Plenty more to go.

[stiff locust]

When does radar doubles come back into rotation on MCC? I thought it was the second Wednesday of every month.

[tight remnant]

I wonder if we'll ever get Cole back

[muted rose]

Wouldn’t that just be malware

[elfin glacier]

idk

[jaunty yoke]

Now tell that to an Xbox user, of which I am one

An Xbox user who has no money or intentions, BUT ESPECIALLY MONEY, for a good PC

[crude jay]

Yessir

My friend gussed around the end of the season/next event but i just want to be sure

[fickle drift]

Either mid Season 5 or the begining of Season 6

[crude jay]

We are about to finish season 5

4 days left

[muted rose]

That’s for the free rewards

[crude jay]

Bro why are you marked as mia😭

[muted rose]

Because I typed those letters as my server username

[crude jay]

Yeah ik im kidding

[round laurel]

It'll be during season 5 for sure. It won't be a season 6 thing unless it gets delayed.

[crude jay]

4 days left😭

U think we'll get it at the last day?

[muted rose]

^

[round laurel]

That's just until the operation starts. It'll still be season 5.

Then when that operation ends, a new one will begin.

[crude jay]

Ik

[round laurel]

Then after that one, season 6 starts.

[crude jay]

Thats how long the season is too, no?

Like 40 days

[muted rose]

No

We still have 2 operations for this season

[crude jay]

Oh this whole thing was an operation?😭😭

[jaunty yoke]

I don't think people realize 3 and a half months are 100-105 days

[crude jay]

?

[jaunty yoke]

No, operations have not begun yet

[round laurel]

Halo Infinite's Season 5 introduces "Operations," a modification of the previous "Events." Operations maintain the free, 20-tier unlockable reward system but extend the duration to approximately 4 to 6 weeks, offering players more flexibility and time to progress. Once an Operation concludes, the free Operation Pass content is retained, but access to further tiers ends unless opting for the premium offer. Premium options include a 500-credit upgrade for an exclusive bonus item and durable pass or a 2,000-credit instant unlock of all 20 tiers with the exclusive item. Notably, Operations won't disappear permanently, allowing players to purchase the Operation pass after its conclusion. Progression is no longer solely challenge-based; instead, it relies on Match XP, offering players greater freedom in playlist choice for tier advancement.

Operations are the new events. Events didn't end seasons, operations don't either.

[jaunty yoke]

Operations are gonna happen while Season 5 keeps going
During the time operations are live, the Season pass won't be available unless you bought it
When the operation is over, the Season pass will be back on

[crude jay]

Ohhhh

Ok, thx

[crude jay]

Got it

[round laurel]

No problem, all the info is here https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/battle-pass-operations-season-5
That previous paragraph was a condensed version by GPT.

[jaunty yoke]

Wait what?

Wasn't Chat GPT's data purge limited to September of 2021
How does it know about this?

[round laurel]

If you paste text into GPT, you can ask it to condense the quote into whichever manner you want. I asked it to condense text from the above blog into a single paragraph.

[jaunty yoke]

Oh yeah, that makes more sense

I like the idea of Operations, they seem like a good content flow and gives players that already finished the Season pass an incentive to come back

Just really wished there was a way to earn credits for free, as little and slow as you may, but at least something

[dreamy stirrup]

[jaunty yoke]

The Cole protocol is cool I guess

[elfin glacier]

unfortunate turn of events 😔

[dreamy stirrup]

@candid solar where you at

[muted rose]

He’s not that interesting compared to the one and only chips dubbo

The only man who could beat laso without breaking a sweat

[jaunty yoke]

No one will ever be as great as Lieutenant Elias Haverson

[muted rose]

And he’s Australian so extra scary to enemies

[cedar turret]

my head canon is the crazed marine from 3 went on to promotion and a happy career until he was composed at the end of halo 4

[twilit vector]

Cole protocol is probably one of the few reasons humanity lasted such long

[jaunty yoke]

Cole protocol lead to the discovery of Installation 03, which lead to the establishment of Ivanoff Station

Which leads to the mission Composer from Halo 4

[bold sparrow]

I don't think he dead honestly. He's off somewhere living the farmer life.
Someone's gonna stumble on his little colony and eat Everest to the face

Also, ultrachad move: why fight the enemy when you can lure them into AN ARIFICAL SUN?

Scifi needs more out of the box thinking like that

[jaunty yoke]

Abusing the stupidity of the Covenant is embarrassing

Species as intelligent as the Sangheili felt stupid obeying religious orders from the prophets as stupid as not dropping Scarabs on Halo rings, not escaping through slipscace inside a Forerunner world or anything of the sorts because "nOoOo We cAn'T dAmAgE sAcReD tErRiToRy"

[candid solar]

I am doing homework, what's up?

[jaunty yoke]

The sky

[candid solar]

OIC. Preston J Cole is interesting because he's a FILTHY DESERTER. At least he did cool things before he dipped, though.

[dreamy stirrup]

well i mean he did that too

but leading up to him disappearing, he just had some absolutely baller moves

[jaunty yoke]

Not like the UNSC is the ideal or perfect military, or at least every story that shows a character deserting justifies their reasoning

[candid solar]

I don't think Preston was justified given the situation he was in.

[dreamy stirrup]

i didn't say that either

i just think he is absolutely fascinating.

[candid solar]

He is, I just honestly don't recall much about Cole because I honestly have a weirdly Preston Cole shaped gap in my memory of Halo lore.

[jaunty yoke]

Big shoutout to that one Huragok that fixed an unusable Needler for the Chief to use in First Strike

[candid solar]

And whenever I think of him I for some reason end up thinking about Aleksandr Kerensky of Battletech instead. Which is doubly weird because Kerensky isn't strictly a naval commander and liked to blow people up in a 75 ton battlemech.

[wild sleet]

I know I’m level 150 in Halo 5

[jaunty yoke]

Almost there

[cedar turret]

There is a secret way to get 153

[ruby pecan]

[cedar turret]

just get 152 and adjust your screen with a sharpie

[ruby pecan]

I heard it was 152 then you have to install Infinite and get to 153 (Hero) there

but what you said makes more sense.

[jaunty yoke]

[cedar turret]

I know a guy who did 152 twice.

Reminds me of when someone asked a 343 guy if Halo 5 was gonna be the darkest game in the series and replied
"Yes, but you can always change the brightness in the settings"

[candid solar]

So nil, because it'll take 30,000 for it to exit the Oort cloud.

[ruby pecan]

I'll be the first to openly admit: That man loves halo more than me. and I love halo a lot

[hexed moss]

Hopefully Microsoft fixes activision (mainly infinity ward) like they did 343

Halo infinite is so fun now

[jaunty yoke]

If this works as an example:

[hexed moss]

Yeah, let’s just hope they can do some stuff

Hell even the store would be better if it worked the exact same

[jaunty yoke]

Microsoft bought Bethesda
And unlike previous Elder Scrolls and Fallout games
Starfield has no microtransactions whatsoever

[grand haven]

Add master chief to COD

[hexed moss]

Unfortunately we have the halo community has it good

[jaunty yoke]

So I think they fixed Bethesda

Although there isn't much to fix about them besides what was done, and please for the love of God give them a new game engine already

[elfin glacier]

just have em update their own engine. Code is mutable

[hexed moss]

Add master chief as a boss in halo forge, make him a higher bot level than spartan

Allow us to spawn 32 master chiefs

[jaunty yoke]

I did imagine Master Chief as a Warzone boss in Halo 5

[hexed moss]

That would be crazy

Add the most random character into forge

[ruby pecan]

reverse warzone where you play as elites against human forces and they just drop in Blue Team on Mythic Firefight Warzone

[hexed moss]

That would be cool

[ruby pecan]

if you lose you just get shiva nuked

[jaunty yoke]

As long as Firefight gets updated with more enemies and not just the ones in campaign
The Flood customization brought people's attention
Now imagine Flood to return as enemy units

[ruby pecan]

you know what they say. "I do my best work for free" or something like that that they actually don't say

[jaunty yoke]

"I'm the best in what I do, but what I do is not very good"

[ruby pecan]

I'd love the flood to return, but I do hope that the strange industry trend of zombie-like enemies having glowing boils kinda dies down a bit

it kinda....genericizes the flood

[jaunty yoke]

I kinda agree with that mister HiddenXperia

The glowing Flood looked a bit silly in Halo Wars 2

[ruby pecan]

I'd argue that's where they looked their best.

but I think keeping it on abominations and keyminds is alright. I think it shouldn't be as commonly used on normal units

or infestation biomass

[jaunty yoke]

I only have one wish, when granted I'll die happily
Bring the deleted Flood Juggernaut from Halo 2 back so I can finally fight those

[ruby pecan]

juggernaught was baby abomination lol

teeny localized keymind

smol

[candid solar]

Next Halloween.

[rigid nova]

hi

[jaunty yoke]

I'm willing to wait as long as it does happen

[obsidian wyvern]

new banner unlocked

[candid solar]

Rev, isn't it a little late to have a spooky skeleton pfp?

[rustic hedge]

If anyone tryin to play Halo BTB/Squad Battles/slayer on another discord chat if so lmk🤟

[tight remnant]

Oh I got the sledge cosmetics and thing nice

[marsh ermine]

Not gonna lie, Halo's pretty lit

[tight remnant]

Yes

[dense bloom]

What have I done? I’ve amassed an army of polite individuals requesting iconic Halo stuff to make a return. I’m a monster… I’m so sorry for your inbox Ske7ch…please forgive me….

[mint ocean]

Happy Halo 2 Day!

[dense bloom]

Happy Halo 2 Day!

[fickle drift]

Halo 2 will never die

[lunar parrot]

what's the sledge emblem for?

[tight remnant]

Halo had a cross over with Rainbow six siege

[fickle drift]

https://tenor.com/view/hello-jared-dines-knocking-is-anyone-there-knocking-the-door-gif-9936337734853590812

Hi everyone

[lunar parrot]

oh neat

[hexed geyser]

how do you get inheiritor role

[calm fiber]

Inheritors are folks with veterancy, a record of good behavior, and currently active

[hexed geyser]

ah

i see

[candid solar]

It forgot the extra step of being a cool dude

[hexed geyser]

i guess ill wait a bit longer till i get it

im playing H2 RN & i find it cool i get To Drive Motor in metropolis (The Squorpian tank)

[torpid ore]

Just talked to a manager who took me to the back of the store to clear out their citrus cherry gamefuel.

And by clear out I mean 4 twelve packs bc that’s all they had left and it was buy 2 get 2 free

[candid solar]

Jeez.

[ebon hound]

was that allowed?

I dont think it was, self promotion and off topic

[tight remnant]

@dusky socket If you have content that's yours and that's halo you may share it at #1076327824924872755

[torpid ore]

Thank god for the buy 2 get 2. 12 packs are 8.99 around here now a days

[limpid ferry]

Does anyone know why the Sledge Hammer Emblem, Weapon Charm and Nameplate was given in Halo Infinite?

like what’s the occasion?

[bold sparrow]

Probably depends on the store.

Once the bottle reaches the shelf it'd up to the location itself to handle the rest, they just order from Dews distributor (probably one of the larger ones like Kehe or UNFI)

[candid solar]

The RS6 Sledge crossover

[shell agate]

I got a random emblem out of the blue? Did anyone else get a Sledge emblem? What’s that about?

[shell agate]

Ah

[ebon hound]

i thought that crossover was pretty cool

[shell agate]

Wait, but I don’t have r6

[limpid ferry]

Neither do I

[ebon hound]

Neither do I but it gave it to me anyway

[limpid ferry]

More Halo 4 Halo 5 helmets when?

[shell agate]

Is it not supposed to be exclusive to only R6 players then?

[limpid ferry]

Naw it’s been released to all halo infinite players as a way to commemorate the collaboration between 343 and Ubisoft’s Rainbow 6 Siege.

[shell agate]

Well that’s cool

[limpid ferry]

The R6 community can now play as Master Chief if they choose to equip the skin for Operator Sledge.

[fickle drift]

Anyone know why my audio cuts off and glitches when I enter into a match but is perfectly fine when I’m in the menu?

[limpid ferry]

I mean my chosen gender voice keeps switching to male when I enter game workaround for anyone else having the issue is unequipping and re-equipping your chosen player voice.

[fickle drift]

I’ll restart the game and see if that works

[limpid ferry]

This bug tends to occur anytime you equip a Kit

Speaking of bugs has anyone else encountered the issue with Kits becoming un-equipped after changing selected emblem color?

[wild sleet]

I love how the Variant Drop Wall can tank everything but the Strike Sidekick is it’s weakness

Like not a goddam Bazooka, little pew pew is deadlier

[grim talon]

You mean if you shoot the base it gets rid of it with the sidekick? Cause I've been trying to figure out what weapon to do that with😂

[hexed geyser]

jeez i just got Acheivmentception on the MCC

[grim talon]

How many did you get?

[hexed geyser]

lemme check

3

[grim talon]

Nice! Which ones were they?

[hexed geyser]

Metropolis,Game On & The one Precent

[grim talon]

Are you running on Halo 2?

[wild sleet]

So you have the Mystery Achievement?

[hexed geyser]

is it the one precent ur talking about?

[hexed geyser]

yeah

[wild sleet]

The one where you save a custom playlist as .fortune that comes up with a Hidden Message

[hexed geyser]

oh lemme do that rn

but is the dot part of it

[wild sleet]

Yes

[hexed geyser]

k

[wild sleet]

When you save it as .fortune it pops up with a random secret message, right now mine says “You cannot fall off the floor”

[grim talon]

I wonder how that was first discovered. Lol

[wild sleet]

I had the achievement since 2014 I just looked up on YouTube back then lmao

It just clicked in my head talking about achievements

[hexed geyser]

i saved the variant but the thingy didnt pop up

[wild sleet]

Did you do it in CE & just .fortune

[hexed geyser]

oooh

do i have to remove my other variants for it to work

[wild sleet]

Nah it’ll still work regardless

CE has most of the goofy stuff for multiplayer like setting the Maximum lives to 1 it has a funny descriptive message

[grim talon]

I'm gonna have to do that when I get home lmao

[hexed geyser]

i tried it but nothing poped up

[wild sleet]

Are you doing any spaces or caps?

[merry narwhal]

Man, I just wanna grind ranked and hit onyx again for the neat seasonal emblems, but this 10 minute searching time between matches is killing me

[hexed geyser]

no

[wild sleet]

Weird because I just typed .fortune did it just now & it popped up for me

[hexed geyser]

does it ot work on xcloud or

[wild sleet]

It should work on any platform you’re on

[grim talon]

Aside from the wait time how bad is the grind?

[merry narwhal]

I'd tell you if I could get enough matches to make any amount of progress lol

[grim talon]

Have you been consistently playing ranked since Infinite dropped?

[merry narwhal]

I hit onyx season 1, but ever since season 2 I just haven't been able to get enough matches to grind back up to onyx again

Unless I wanted to no-life the game basically

[fickle drift]

Does ranked have rewards?

[wild sleet]

Mostly just emblems but it’s good to show off how good you are

I only the Diamond emblem from Season 1 so I have nothing to flex 🤣

[merry narwhal]

Season 1 didn't have any emblems sadly just armor stickers and weapon stickers

Or well, Season 0

[grim talon]

I think I have the Onyx sticker, but never remember playing that much to get that 😂😂😂

[wild sleet]

Damn I could’ve sworn S1 had S1 rank emblems, guess its must’ve been a bit since I played Ranked

[merry narwhal]

I think S1 did, S0 is the one that only had stickers

[smoky token]

https://fixupx.com/RedNomster/status/1722752875695096162?s=20

red nomster at it again

we really should just give him the forge lord title

[wild sleet]

Well they added the R6 Sledge emblem, Charm & stickers to Infinite

It was only Ranked stickers for your Weapons for S1 are you kidding me 💀💀💀💀

So the only way I can Flex my skill is Flex Tape slapping it onto my weapons

[candid solar]

Huh?

[hexed geyser]

my bro is going on vacation so he might have more time to vc & play games with me

he'll be going this satrday

[weary hound]

[wild sleet]

I just got off to play some PlayStation games

[merry narwhal]

Very first season of ranked doesn't show up service record either

All I have to show for it is a sticker and a screenshot when I got it

[jaunty yoke]

There is a Master Chief skin in Rainbow 6 Siege now

Before you get excited, it's 20 dollars

[merry narwhal]

As most master chief skins are these days XD

[tight remnant]

Too bad we can't get Bella Disztl in forza

[faint mantle]

Does she even have a face/concept art?

[tribal ravine]

random question to all in the chat - anyone know any work arounds to the "dedicated server" issue on console for Halo 5?

[wild sleet]

Nope haven’t played Halo 5 since 2021

[jaunty yoke]

Closing and reopening the game

[tribal ravine]

lol the wife still likes it

[tribal ravine]

tried a close and reboot, still coming up.

[tight remnant]

I dont think so

[wild sleet]

I enjoyed it but I preferred H4 more than H5

[jaunty yoke]

Same

Halo 4 is so good

The equivalent of Bloodborne for Xbox

[tribal ravine]

have you played recently? wonder if anyone would still be on the servers for multiplayer. maybe should move the misses to Hal04

[jaunty yoke]

Unlikely

The servers for the original versions of the Halo games were shut down

[tribal ravine]

figured... guessing everyone moved to infinite

[jaunty yoke]

MCC would be good if people played anything else other than Halo 3

[tribal ravine]

had her try Infinite, she didnt like the gameplay compared to 5 in multiplayer

was trying to tell her, lol, just duke it out for a bit. get used it

[fickle drift]

aim assists on halo infinite for keyboard users is op

[merry narwhal]

It won't save you in high level play though

[pliant hatch]

my controller trigger squeaks when pushing it now. it's pretty annoying

[tribal ravine]

putting in that work on the controller

annoying though, I just bought a new one recently

[crude jay]

Bro can answer msgs💀💀💀

[worthy ginkgo]

Finally got some game fuel felt like I went back to 2007 for a sec 😂

[crude jay]

Lol

[merry narwhal]

So since I'm actually able to find matches pretty consistently, the grind doesn't seem bad

Go up 10-15 from win, go down ~6 for loss

So as long as you don't lose non-stop you will go up

[analog knot]

You’ll be happy to know that MCC is good then!

[rare cedar]

[dense basin]

Jesus

[vale wren]

Infinite been good but sadly like almost every game boring and dumb battle pass you shouldn’t have to buy in game stuff for more tier levels

But I blame fortnite for that trend
Not needed more and more all these companies just care is money and not quality of the game including 343 Bungie rockstar etc

[dusky swan]

https://tenor.com/view/sponge-bob-loser-gif-5641066

[rare cedar]

"companies just care is money"

Brother...

[rare cedar]

https://tenor.com/view/james-franco-the-interview-hate-us-gif-12303612

[vale wren]

Yes but their was a point where their were actual creators that cared for quality lol

They just wanna make almost everything cost more and more money

[halcyon mica]

please 343 PLEase give helmet customisation on the immaculate Mark V kit
I will mortgage my house in exchange for this service

[vale wren]

And some still do spiderman 2 was QUALITY

[dusky swan]

Oof bad parallel

[vale wren]

Not really
Halo infinite battlepass and customization was a L compared to past halos lmao

Okay why can’t you swear in a game server that is at least Teen who are these mods bro weird lol

[dusky swan]

???? That’s still a bad parallel Spoderdude 2 and John Halo are two very separate and unique experiences

Lol as if we have that kind of response time

[vale wren]

Alright

Halo
And a lot of other shooter multiplayer facing same problem like I said lol

[dusky swan]

In the AAA space, you bet. That argument was made 15 years ago with DLC in all fairness

[dusky swan]

SPODERMAN

The king returns

[vale wren]

I love infinite gameplay much more and I don’t think it’s a bad game

All DLCs too like how destiny does it is stupid
But sadly that how they wanna make the money
Old era of games much better

[dusky swan]

Dude

[halcyon mica]

Didn't spooderman appear in an MCU film as well?

[dusky swan]

Oh I misspelled Oop

[halcyon mica]

Sanic at least appeared in one of the Sonic films.

[vale wren]

Sorry I don’t suck on 343 move everytime lmao
Or a lot of these companies

[dusky swan]

15 years ago*

I’m not defending heavy monetization, I don’t know why you’re getting that from me

[vale wren]

But atleast halo isn’t facing
Destiny 2 problems Bungie even getting more backlash for their L ideas

[brave prairie]

I need to grind out career ranks. I WILL get that master Chief armor

[dusky swan]

I also grew up in an age where monetization was significantly more heavy-handed. IE map packs and weird movie games that were somehow $60 lol

[vale wren]

Like man
What r their thoughts with their battlepasses I also enjoy the quality of the game but bro

And gta boutta make things a whole new norm of a normal price being more expensive can’t wait lol
Also in general almost no game is worth over 50 bucks even great games

[pallid island]

Guys did halo ce come out on november 15th right?

[dusky swan]

Pretty sure 11/15/01 right?

[pallid island]

Hmm kinda wanna do a replay playthrough but probably im gonna go for half life around these days

[rare cedar]

mhm

[dusky swan]

Shut up panda, didn’t ask

[pallid island]

The birthday of half life is also close, but half life was a game i played wayy back so sorry halo ce

Half peak comes first

[rare cedar]

mhm

[dusky swan]

HL is mid 👀

[pallid island]

Nah

[rare cedar]

infinite's birfday

[dusky swan]

Sorry dude, Half Life was cool like CE was cool, but HL2 brought so much more to the table

[pallid island]

And that makes it bad?

Tbh hl2 is a much refined sequel than halo 2

[dusky swan]

Not bad, mid. Recontextualized because its successor did more

Agreed

It’s why I find the inverse to be true for Halo imo

CE > 2

[pallid island]

wdym halo ce better than halo 2? yea i agree tbh 2 is just.... kinda disappointing and rushed to hell

yea the story is great but what about the gameplay ohhh nevermind is not fun!

[dusky swan]

Story’s fine, but honestly CE did a lot of heavy lifting for world building imo. Playing H2 stand-alone feels odd. Playing HL2 stand-alone feels complete

Until EP2

[pallid island]

yea because is different, also hl2 didnt have a terrible cliffhanger like halo 2 did

[dusky swan]

HL2 doesn’t, HL2:Ep2 does

[pallid island]

Ehh yea ill agree because it was supposed to finished and never was

Imagine if they did the same with halo, it would be x10 worse

[dusky swan]

Kek 18 years later amirite haha

Well, I guess 16 for Ep2

But still

[pallid island]

wasnt kinda 13 years later because you know alyx?

[dusky swan]

Alyx is a prequel, depending on your specific interpretation of the ending

https://tenor.com/view/half-life-half-life2-gman-gif-25087297

[pallid island]

ok spoilers of alyx here ||the ending of alyx reconnects the ending of ep2, but yea still kinda the same cliffhanger||

[dusky swan]

Frick lemme check how to do spoilers again lol

[pallid island]

is like this || on both sides

[dusky swan]

Riiight

||Yeah, I mean it’s the same but they’re different outcomes. Alyx’s dad is friggin alive lol. Kinda strange, prequel but different timeline||

In either case, still haven’t gotten anything further. Kinda like how Star Trek was after Voyager. Series never progressed forwards, ||just entered new timelines and such||

Okay I think I’m gonna go to bed and let @rare cedar explain the entire lore behind Star Trek and why it’s undoubtedly more interesting than Star Wars

[pallid island]

LOL okay i guess

[dusky swan]

[pallid island]

Is modern warfare 2023 a far cry copy or what

or a multiplayer mode with AI enemies copy

[muted rose]

☹️

[rare cedar]

Dude I love Captain America

[dusky swan]

LOL better response than I expected

[muted rose]

Why is Star Trek vs Star Wars a thing though

[dusky swan]

Idek tbh

[muted rose]

They’re like completely different vibes

It’s like spider man vs Batman

Really just preferences the only real similarities are the genre

[dusky swan]

Science fiction vs science fantasy

[muted rose]

And the pew pew aspect obv

[dusky swan]

Probably the name tbh

[muted rose]

It really is science fantasy tho

People get upset bout that and say that Star Wars is science fiction

[dusky swan]

They’re space wizards almost literally, if not literally. Looks at nightsisters

[muted rose]

The entire concept of the force makes it fantasy

If you want to argue science fantasy vs fiction argue about dune

Which Star Wars also shamelessly stole several concepts from!

Tatooine is a budget arrakis

Krayt dragons are sand worms

And the force is the voice on steroids

Only difference is the Jedi don’t go on a murdering spree across the galaxy

And Palpitine doesn’t turn into a worm and force the galaxy to suffer to advance humanity as a species

[fleet bluff]

Is there some kind of unspoken GA about the needler on Prism? I feel like every time i play that map I am the only one that ever grabs the needler. I've watched my teammates and the enemy team walk right by it many times haha or is it that a lot of people just don't realize it's the super needler?

[muted rose]

Probably don’t realise it’s the super needler because the pick-up icon just says needler

[random river]

hey, credits on halo infinite are 2000 for 20USD right?

[fleet bluff]

they should change the icon to the gold power weapon icon color i bet that would get people's attention. Or I guess don't change it. I'm perfectly happy to grab it uncontested lol

[muted rose]

Yes

[random river]

my friend is getting a different number

[muted rose]

What’s the difference?

[random river]

31.95

well, 11.95 difference

[rare cedar]

different currency?

[random river]

same currency

[muted rose]

Check the numbers

Should be 20$ even if not close to

[random river]

i would post the picture in here if i could

[rare cedar]

#1076327824924872755

I know it's not the right place for it, but I'm curious

You'll have to use an imgur link I believe

[random river]

lemme upload

normal to get an error when I try to make a post in #1076327824924872755 ?

can i post the imgur link in here maybe

[echo lotus]

Yo

Do you think when Xbox gets bungie back, would they bring back the og halo servers from the 360?

And original Xbox?

[faint mantle]

Why would Xbox want Bungie back, if Bungie say they don't want nothing more with Halo, and they've been purchased by Sony

And who in their sane mind would play the original Xbox and Xbox 360 in 2023?

If it happened by some miracle, the servers would be active for a day at most, then stay dead.

[echo lotus]

The wouldn't play it on there, they'd use the current Gen consoles

Every Halo except Halo 5, with their campaign and multiplayer, with Co-Op, Firefight, and Forge.

sometimes a bit of lemon juice

[elfin glacier]

ngl i'm not a huge tea snob it just looked nice with good reviews

i wanted a decent plain black tea basically

[raw summit]

is halo acting funny at all? its not working for me.

[ionic kestrel]

Same

Multiplayer has been offline for the last 1h 30mins

[raw summit]

Not only infinite, it's mcc

And infinite crashes when trying to join a friend

[ionic kestrel]

And no communication from the team

[raw summit]

And you and another friend are the only ones experiencing the issues

Unless others are, I ain't sure

[steady jolt]

Ah, stupid mobile site not showing me replies

[steady jolt]

Assam tea is sooooooo good

If you ever find Assam with Kenyan leaves, best tea I ever tasted

[scenic sigil]

Are the servers down?

[copper harness]

[wild sleet]

You also got the Emblem as well

[crude jay]

Halo: wraiths of inifnite

[crude jay]

Halo: half of 14

Say what you want about Infinite not being perfect but at least people can’t endlessly camp in doorways and windows and play like a coward and be affective.

Good god MW3 day one and I can’t tell you how many times I was shot in the back or by someone hiding behind a doorway or window.

Majority of my deaths the matches I played were by someone camping, hiding, not fighting man to man. Halo Infinite blows MW3 out of the water its not even close.

I try and try to give COD a chance yearly and it’s the same old camp song and dance. It’s a shame too there was a time when it was great.

[tired condor]

Anyone got a spare game fuel coating code by any chance? I'm a lonely Brit and it's US only 😦

[stable storm]

Back to Infinite I go. That’s where there’s fun to be had RUNNING RIOT!

[fickle drift]

Are you able to enter the mtn dew and Doritos codes at all? I have a Doritos code that may work twice since it's printed outside the bag

[steady jolt]

If you're not in a supported region, you can't redeem the dorito codes. People in supported regions can redeem them and get the Waypoint codes - those can then be giveaway and entered by anyone

[torpid ore]

Mornin’

[torpid ore]

Lmao camping was part of the fun tho

[hexed geyser]

what if the cheif met the Rainbow six characters

if there is a halo Party game Call it Halo Fiesta

[amber mirage]

Play Rainbow Six Siege and get the Master Chief bundle to find out

[brave helm]

someone ported half life 2 enemies into halo 3

massive damn W

[steady jolt]

Wild lol

[hexed geyser]

im making a map Called Fight Grunty the Grunt (Plot: Grunty from Banjo Has invaded the Halo World as A Grunt & Its A Spartans Job to stop her)

& it crashed before i could make my map 😦

[smoky token]

y’all seen the new Steam Deck?

[molten pelican]

the OLED?

yeah its pretty cool

personally I would find no need for a handheld OLED but if the price is nice...

[smoky token]

yep

[steady jolt]

Hmm... Need to take a look at this

[amber mirage]

Only reason I'm even slightly tempted by the Steam Deck is that folks at work swear by them

[molten pelican]

Im planning on purchasing one

[amber mirage]

Can't justify shelling out for them right now though

[molten pelican]

black friday is what im hoping to see it go down

[muted rose]

I might get it tbh

[amber mirage]

The old models just got a price drop

[molten pelican]

I do think the value by itself is there

[molten pelican]

on steam website?

[amber mirage]

Yeah

[molten pelican]

oh yeah 350

Il wait til black friday, hopefully see something even less there, and maybe even less refurbished

[amber mirage]

Or maybe they all sell out

[molten pelican]

and then find them on ebay for 600 more

[amber mirage]

Exactly

[brave helm]

true im reinstalling mcc now and im gonna try it

[obsidian wyvern]

ive always been tempted to sell my switch and buy a steam deck

[molten pelican]

there is nothing we can do

[obsidian wyvern]

but i hate the controls layout on the deck

[molten pelican]

just want to grind assasins creed on the thing and ofc Halo

[amber mirage]

My Switch is purely for the exclusives, so trading it in for a Steam Deck would be counterproductive for me.

[muted rose]

I would get it for pc exclusives like CS

[molten pelican]

have you tried it out? Ive heard it looks bulkier then it feels

[obsidian wyvern]

yeah my friend has one

[molten pelican]

ah gotchu

[obsidian wyvern]

didnt expect the top 2

[molten pelican]

vampire survivors lol

[muted rose]

Looks like a mobile game

[amber mirage]

Vampire Survivors is pretty big, so I'm not surprised.

[molten pelican]

it is also cheaper so does make sense

it would be perfect for hollow knight

[obsidian wyvern]

never really got into hollow knight

[muted rose]

Elden ring on a OLED would be funky

Feel like it’s far more of a console game

[molten pelican]

personally with the small screen, even running at 30fps would be pretty nice

[muted rose]

Played hollownite, enjoyed it, but not enough to go back and play it again

[molten pelican]

its pretty daunting to replay

[queen remnant]

Vampire Survivors got extremely big so is not a really a surprise tbh

[molten pelican]

new one coming out sometime in the next 7 years tho

[muted rose]

Idk if I want a single player game I just hop on elden ring

I enjoy that a lot more

[molten pelican]

ghost recon wildlands 🤘

fallout 4 seems to run very very well on it too

[obsidian wyvern]

still need to finish deadspace

i hate having so many games to play this actually sucks lol

[muted rose]

So many games and not enough time

[smoky token]

dead space is definitely a game I should play on my Deck once I get one

same with Mass Effect

[hexed geyser]

how do i publish my map

[smoky token]

$10 for the legendary edition on steam rn btw

[obsidian wyvern]

this and watching series/movies

[muted rose]

Yeah def series

[obsidian wyvern]

i did just finish loki today though, almost done with 2 others too

[muted rose]

I want to watch more but I just can’t

Was s2 of Loki good?

[obsidian wyvern]

yessss

my expectations were low but it was actually really well made

[muted rose]

Kinda clocked out of the MCU after Wandavision

[smoky token]

vs S1?

[muted rose]

Don’t hate it just lost interest

[obsidian wyvern]

uhh, i think i preferred s1 but the bar was kinda high. id say theyre almost on par in their own ways

season 1 had a lot more action, season 2 was a lot more about thinking "how do we do this"

[obsidian wyvern]

fair enough, pretty much me as well. i did watch loki s1 though so i gave this a go, didnt disappoint

[amber mirage]

Did they figure out how to do it?

[obsidian wyvern]

maybe

[molten pelican]

Havent even gotten to the last of us

[obsidian wyvern]

neither have I lol

[molten pelican]

fr this whole multiverse thing just seems lazy lol

no one even dies anymore, they just come back in another universe, not even the main villian where are the stakes😭 and why do these new characters master their powers in 12 hours

[obsidian wyvern]

im interested in the spotlight series theyre gonna start doing, its more like the netflix series they made a few years back

[amber mirage]

It feels like every superhero thing is doing the multiverse now

[obsidian wyvern]

saying that bcs of invincible?

[amber mirage]

Plus all the Spiderman stuff, and Marvel stuff I keep hearing about.

[molten pelican]

this is probably strong opinion but the whole superhero genre really died in the 2020s lol, except for a few good movies/shows

[amber mirage]

Plus the new Superman show

[obsidian wyvern]

apparently the invincible comics did the mutliverse stuff long before the mcu, but i was like meh when i saw it

oh yeah they did it in the flash as well, it is pretty over done at this stage

[amber mirage]

I know the concept isn't new, but now it feels like all the adaptations for TV and movies have been leaning into it really hard.

[obsidian wyvern]

yeah

[molten pelican]

to the point where its predictable, its not interesting anymore for me

[obsidian wyvern]

lets hope the boys doesnt do the same

[molten pelican]

favorite marvel movies?

[obsidian wyvern]

hm

[amber mirage]

I've only watched 2

[molten pelican]

never heard of those

[obsidian wyvern]

iron man, iron man 3, age of ultron

could slide far from home in there

[molten pelican]

age of ultron, based fr

iron man was probably the best solo superhero movie

[obsidian wyvern]

i learnt like 5 years later than not many people liked it, kinda shocked

[molten pelican]

I rememeber not liking it and then rewatching and it wasnt bad yeah

[obsidian wyvern]

😮

[molten pelican]

cant go wrong with gaurdians of the galaxy

[obsidian wyvern]

wasnt too big on it

[molten pelican]

absolutely flabbergasted

[obsidian wyvern]

how and when did we get to 10 second slowmode

[molten pelican]

rev you're making this slightly less enjoyable for me now

this was the most controversial topic I should have never brought up

[obsidian wyvern]

ill go back to working

[hexed geyser]

TIL that halo has its own ver of a Randomizer

[topaz heron]

?

[obsidian wyvern]

lmao this is actually so good

[molten pelican]

wort wort

[molten pelican]

I forgive you

[hexed geyser]

[cedar turret]

[vale wren]

Arbys is bringing the Good Burger November 13th

[simple sluice]

Hey everyone when I'm trying to buy this season's battlepass it indicates there's exclusive weapon model for bulldog. what does it mean? aren't all locked items in a battlepass exclusive to the people who bought it? or is this one exclusive for a certain time?

[steady pollen]

When I bought the battlepass, I got the kit immediatly

[obsidian wyvern]

until this tuesday, the first 20 tiers are free for everyone. that bulldog is like an instant bonus reward for buying the pass

[simple sluice]

so there is no time limition for the bulldog?

[jaunty yoke]

No there is not, the Bulldog will be a permanent bonus as long as you do buy the pass

[simple sluice]

thanks

[tall hull]

i placed gold 5 in my placement match. is this avg?

[frail walrus]

From my understanding of the competitive band, yes that is average

I believe most players fall between Gold IV-Plat Vish or so

[tall hull]

cool, thanks mate :)

[frail walrus]

sure thing and well done!

[fickle drift]

eloo

[tall hull]

thanks man, pretty impressed with infinite now after coming back to it

[fickle drift]

[hexed geyser]

[fickle drift]

Yep

[smoky token]

[dreamy stirrup]

[smoky token]

[ebon bramble]

HALO

[jaunty yoke]

Hlao

[fickle drift]

i wanna do yoga but idk how ive literally never done it in my life

[rocky remnant]

Halo te mastr chef coletion

[ebon bramble]

[jaunty yoke]

Halo 5 on PC

[rocky remnant]

[fickle drift]

halo 5 on the gamecube

[jaunty yoke]

I'm not joking
Halo 5 on PC

[rocky remnant]

halo 11 on sega saturn

[fickle drift]

halo x dead by daylight collab when

[dreamy stirrup]

what i get depends on my mood but it's either:

1. Flat White
2. Whole milk latte

lol

[jaunty yoke]

How are new fans of the franchise on PC supposed to enjoy the full experience of the series when the 5th game is not there

[dreamy stirrup]

Villager, are you just here to beat the dead horses repeatedly?

[fickle drift]

you can always imagine the story in ur head

[rocky remnant]

Grey man hunts green guy

[ebon bramble]

Halo 5 on the nintendo entertainment system

[rocky remnant]

real

[fickle drift]

halo ce on the playstation 9

[rocky remnant]

halo 94 on playstation -5

[fickle drift]

funi moment

[ebon bramble]

Halo 2 on the ATM

[jaunty yoke]

Like that would work

[fickle drift]

uhh just follow the story of 4

didact gets resurrected, u kill him in end battle n stuf

[jaunty yoke]

We all know that's not what happens in Halo 5, and if you were to skip 5 and imagine that's what happens, then the beginning of Infinite and its overall plot makes no sense

[fickle drift]

good point

[dreamy stirrup]

i repeat

[jaunty yoke]

How about you answer the question instead of making more

[hexed geyser]

Halo CE for Wii

[dreamy stirrup]

if you're just here to beat dead horses, go somewhere else.

[fickle drift]

i love horses 😭

[hexed geyser]

dangit i missed the halo on random consoles chain

[jaunty yoke]

The least this community deserves is answers
This is not a "dead horse" by any means because you have never given an answer to it

[dreamy stirrup]

it's exhausting to come in here every day and see you saying the same things all the time

[rocky remnant]

i got skinned alive today

[ebon bramble]

Three hundred and forty three industries

[rocky remnant]

in real life

[hexed geyser]

that'll help the getting money from atm wait

[ebon bramble]

If you play on legendary and beat new mombasa deathless your bank account doubles in money

[thorny glen]

universe explodes because killing the didact means you killed the heart of the universe 🤯

[hexed geyser]

lol

[fickle drift]

WHAT this is so cool
