general-chat

[ocean herald]

Ngl I was just trying to upset the spartan iv lovers with that comparison

[obsidian wyvern]

Fair enough

[hard crane]

My favorite Spartans are those I created myself.

Especially my Eaglestrike and my Rakashasa.

[static helm]

Well it’s a fair comparison, we haven’t seen much of FO troopers really outside of where they HAVE to be crap cus plot demands it, but canonically they’re pretty good soldiers. Meanwhile we’ve seen a lot about Mandalorians and Clones/imperial army

Ik Ik the stormtroopers aren’t imperial army, they’re stormtrooper corps

[snow oxide]

I like to imagine the toughness of FO troops are in universe propaganda

[graceful inlet]

Good night Spartans!!!
(and our really kind... marines *)

[candid solar]

Who's blown up more planets

[fickle drift]

Gets past me

[snow oxide]

FO would lose to the UNSC post H3, and the UNSC are backwards at parts

[ocean herald]

I have succeeded

[candid solar]

I mean, it's not actually irritating me, because of this statement.

[ocean herald]

Pretend you didn’t see that

[candid solar]

No

[fickle drift]

Spartan 4 fans exist?

[candid solar]

< Yes.

[normal owl]

Eaglestrike suddenly became a monster with the helmet and shoulder swappability.

[snow oxide]

Not a fan of the Weapon, just let Cortana rest

[hardy storm]

I love her...

[snow oxide]

Shes just Cortana 2

[fickle drift]

Didn't know that

[quiet warren]

watchiing halo nightfall now wish me luck

[hardy storm]

She even has SHOES! no more chances for people to ruin characters because "oh my gosh they have FEET!"

[fickle drift]

Insert thousand yard stare

[hardy storm]

Her personality is far different than Cortana's.

[hasty zinc]

I'll add it to the list. I have to finish EVA and the Andy Griffith show first. At some point your name will be changed in here to revy and you'll know why

[static helm]

Their fighting capability and just what we’ve seen them do, plus their missions they did. The Mandalorians are strong warriors few and far between who are feared and respected for a reason (like Spartan-II’s.) clones and imperial stormtroopers are mass produced and thrown into the lines of fire, look at Geonosis, or Umbara. And the FO are the spiritual successors that we haven’t seen much from

[hardy storm]

It dosn't take a genius

[normal owl]

It's a neat side trip in the Halo universe: not as bad as the Gatekeeper Choir enjoys singing about.

[static helm]

They mentioned it in H4, and Halsey made Cortana to fight Cortana, her being naive, innocent, and very optimistic is also a wonderful change of pace

[hardy storm]

But these are two vastly different groups in vastly different franchises, why are you comparing them?

[candid solar]

Some people prefer pragmatic and effective supersoldier concepts over ethically bankrupt and goofy melodrama.

[static helm]

Well one dude did it as a joke, I’m just looking at that joke in a more serious pov

[quiet warren]

whoever uploaded this on youtube the quality is garbage im about to rent it on prime video

[snow oxide]

Prefer a halo where MC has to deal with not having Cortana around

[hardy storm]

The quality is most likely poor to avoid the copyright filter and getting flagged.

[snow oxide]

and spends time with others

[fickle drift]

I mean, when he isn't having gameplay halting hallucinations then sure lol

[hardy storm]

God. The Halo 3 hallucinations, make it stop.

[static helm]

Except we’ve really seen that already, I enjoyed it too, but it would’ve changed at some point, and I love his slow growth into trusting cortana again

[candid solar]

IMO, expanding on that rift post 5 would've been a far superior move to the replacement goldfish of The Weapon.

If we absolutely needed to have Chief stories, twisting that knife deeper and harder than 5's already gushing chest wound would've been neat.

[snow oxide]

prefer that

[ocean herald]

MC chasing after Cortana did get a bit old by Halo 5. I don’t really view the weapon as Cortana but it did feel like a way to write Cortana 2.0 into the story without all the baggage of Cortana 1.0

[snow oxide]

over crappy nostaliga bait

[candid solar]

That's a solid chunk of why I like 5's story. because it didn't do it to be nostalgic.

[static helm]

Hot take, Halo 3 is the worst of the series campaign wise. The ruining of potential, ruining of new enemies, pacing, etc. I can write an entire paragraph if you’d like

[snow oxide]

HI only set the series backwards

[candid solar]

It did it to twist the knife of Cortana's death and subsequent survival, making Infinite a sort of... Corruption of a corruption.

[snow oxide]

but a large portion of the fanbase only prefer nostaliga and hate progress

[fickle drift]

I liked the part where Sydney and Doisac where both destroyed off screen.

And that one Satelite training base.

[ocean herald]

Dang Australia catching strays

[static helm]

I really liked the books for this, and we would’ve seen it similar to how the books describe it too. I firmly believe if H5 wasn’t given the backlash for essentially being a modern day Halo 2 in many aspects, that we would’ve seen the return to reach to grab Cortanas matrix for Halsey.

I’m a firm believer of that, and it would’ve been a great game because the book is phenomenal

[candid solar]

Oh, I'm glad someone else also thinks of 5 as being eerily similar to 2 in that regard.

[hasty zinc]

I mean technically they were both showed

[ocean herald]

Which book is that from, I’m not fully caught up

[snow oxide]

HI feels like a small short story in the grand scheme of stuff

[static helm]

It’s impossible not to, a new character taking up a good part of the campaign, new mechanics that are canon to the series already just never seen, attempting a new story etc

[static helm]

Shadows of Reach

[candid solar]

I've had people get really damn mad at me for the comparison, lmao

[static helm]

Because they don’t wanna accept the truth. There’s plenty of differences ofc, but they’re insanely similar in how they’re structured

[snow oxide]

FO troops are more like Grunts than Spartans

[static helm]

And what they did

[static helm]

I mean that’s pretty much every army, GAR, CIS, FO, ISC

[candid solar]

I mean, grunts are really only bad in comparison to Spartans, and even grunts have killed Spartans.

[static helm]

My man Stollt 😎

[candid solar]

They're still big, and I wouldn't want to get in a fistfight with a 5'5" gorilla dog crab lizard thing.

[normal owl]

[static helm]

I’d befriend one like in Legacy of Onyx, they’re genuinely adorable lil guys

[normal owl]

https://tenor.com/view/dagger6art-grunt-halo-mcc-dance-party-gif-18994892

[fickle drift]

Yeah I suppose. Just things that were pretty big to have just been dropped in as 'yeah this happened.'

[hasty zinc]

https://tenor.com/bDEq5.gif

[tight remnant]

Legacy of Onyx is so good

[fickle drift]

I feel like the Brute homeworld being destyoyed or losing the UNSC's earth headquarters are main event in a Campaign type things

[candid solar]

Or the fall of the Infinity.

[static helm]

I stand by this, we would’ve seen at least one of these happen in a game directly following H5 if the community did backlash so utterly hard

[fickle drift]

Pretty as that intro cutscene was I do wish the Infinity getting boarded was our first level for Infinite.

[candid solar]

You could've had both, frankly.

[fickle drift]

True

[ocean herald]

It kinda feels like a halo game was skipped between 5 and infinite

Story wise

[snow oxide]

Setting us backwards

Doom Eternal is the opposite of HI, embracing nostalgia while moving the setting and technology forwards

[static helm]

It was. And beating a dead horse I know, but the books show just how great that game could’ve been. Like we could’ve even gotten a dual campaign again where we start out with returning to reach for the matrix, see Atriox’s arrival, travel back to infinity, and then pick back up on Sangheilios and travel to Netherop for a few missions, and so on

All looking for ways to beat Cortana and save the day

[normal owl]

More settings would have taken more time and money, neither of which they had to spare in the latter part of development.

[ocean herald]

I agree

[static helm]

Sadly, and the backlash didn’t help them either

If it was better received then maybe they would’ve had more to work with

Instead of having to fall back to something good that’ll work

[normal owl]

True. I sometimes wonder what the original game would have been like had it been allowed to be completed. Would it have looked worse on its face but been a deeper game?

[fierce iris]

[candid solar]

NGL, I think that Invincible's actually got one of the best portrayals of a gay relationship in a relatively mainstream show in recent memory.

[static helm]

They could’ve also entered and combined the infinite art style and requiem art style flawlessly and more Arby will always be a W

[candid solar]

I haven't seen a lot of that Spartan couple in the Halo show, so.

[normal owl]

His story in H2 is my favorite character arc of any Halo game. I really felt for him.

[true kayak]

[ocean herald]

So the r v b people are getting 1 more season

[static helm]

It’s one of the best arcs in the entire series

[fierce iris]

ye, Rooster teeth is closing soon

[cedar turret]

Arby I assume?

[static helm]

Yes

[cedar turret]

TBF he’s the only one with a character arc till infinite

[calm fiber]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/572921337782337566/1211114454142681118/noping.png?ex=65ed053b&is=65da903b&hm=127c1f5a619a9cb041d895fc8b72e2582f18b58934fcc2c232dda28837a796a2&

[static helm]

I mean Chief has a minor arc in 4 and 5 becoming more human, it’s continued in Infinite

[candid solar]

Halsey, several book characters.

Halo's books are historically pretty damn good for it. Tanaka's got a small arc through 5 about trusting her team and opening up, but that's mostly expressed in easily missed dialogue because damn it 5.

[viscid belfry]

When you first saw Halo, were you blinded by it's majesty?

[cedar turret]

Chief gradually becomes less of a complete patsy over the games. But the only one to have a full arc in the game is arby

[static helm]

I really liked the dialogue tho, it’s a natural way of expanding the lore or talking about it, without shoving it in your face yk? Like Buck being asked about Veronica

And their relationship

[candid solar]

It's nice, but I wish it were done, ironically, less organically.

[cedar turret]

H5 had one of chiefs character growth moments when he called out Cortana’s manipulation

[candid solar]

God. For a game without much Chief compared to everybody else, the parts where Chief's tearing off the wool were killer.

[static helm]

Personally I prefer that it was done organically because it always gives me something new to learn about while playing through later on. Also yes, Chief being immune to Cortana’s manipulation is great, and him calling her out for doing something similar to Halsey and Cortana’s reaction to it are perfect

[candid solar]

I mean-the game is not actually subtle at all about the Cortana-Halsey connection.

[normal owl]

You guys are making me want to fire up H5 again.

[static helm]

You should

[candid solar]

It's half the reason I get really damn annoyed whenever someone claims 5's a Cortana Character Assassination writ large, because if anything it's the opposite, more of a love letter to that connection between her and Halsey.

[normal owl]

YESSS

[static helm]

I mean, it shouldn’t be. They’re made of the same brain, and it being in your face let’s us see how Cortana feels about being compared to her, without it being a big shock to us

It’s just genuinely good writing

[candid solar]

In Osiris' levels, lategame, Jen Taylor starts to dip into more a Halseyesque manner of speaking-especially talking about her Spartans.

It's practically screamed at your face.

[static helm]

And it allowed for so much, that writing plus Jens pure skill is why it’s so good

[muted rose]

Not to mention she does hate Halsey, double irony

[oak cave]

hello

[muted rose]

You became what you want to destroy you know

[static helm]

Yea

[hasty zinc]

Lightyear Frontier is on game preview now?? 👀

[normal owl]

Oh boy here we go. Must resist the temptation...

[candid solar]

I view it as a sort of cycle of self-loathing, the same recursive attitude Halsey had in her Onyx escapade.

[oak cave]

whya re you looking at diablo 4 customization

[candid solar]

As Halsey's actions regarding Onyx came from the same heart-to spare the IIs, to spare her 'children', to make up for mistakes.

[oak cave]

whats so tempting about horse armor

[hasty zinc]

woot!

[normal owl]

Now will you finally be persuaded that Game Pass is the best deal in gaming?

[hasty zinc]

yes at first I was hesitant to admit that game pass was the best deal in gaming

[normal owl]

We all know you're the last holdout against admitting its virtues.

[hasty zinc]

https://tenor.com/OtgE.gif

[normal owl]

At last!

[static helm]

Little weird sidetrack, but I genuinely want to become a voice actor in at least one halo game, not even as a major character I could literally just be a generic brute and I’d be happy. That’s a goal of mine after becoming a voice actor

[hasty zinc]

give us your best brute yell

[candid solar]

It helps to build a resume as a voice actor.

[normal owl]

If you don't land your dream role, will you become A Spiraling Voice Actor?

[static helm]

Yea, I’ve bought a mic I just need to buy a desk so I have somewhere to actually place it and record lol

[obsidian wyvern]

aegis watching Eva as well huh

[static helm]

Nah, I’ll just be a lil disappointed and sad, but I know it’s a long shot lol

[static helm]

Maybe when I get my mic setup and some software to edit the background noise, I’m still working on how I’d do the brute voice, I have a low voice but that isn’t an easy slide into a role

[viscid belfry]

I just realized...

Set a fire in your heart, Spartan! = Easy
Bare your fangs! = Normal
Fight hard! = Heroic
Die well. = Legendary

[hasty zinc]

I meant over text

if you can convince us you're a brute over text, you can do anything

[normal owl]

Don't be shocked by the amount of work involved. Sometimes you'll feel like you're just making mic-roscopic gain on your progress, but stay encouraged: one day your career will suddenly pop and you'll look back at all this through a nostalgia filter.

[static helm]

SPARTAN! Prepare yourself to fight! Feel your heart beat like war drums! Call upon the Degaeorth you hold within and let your ancestors know your worth, earn your marks or die well! id figure for a chieftain

[cedar turret]

The hard part is canning the lemons

[static helm]

Nah the hard part is finding Mike to make the lemons

[normal owl]

I actually really enjoy Mike's hard limeade: a great mixer with liquors.

[cedar turret]

perhaps cherryade instead

[candid solar]

Yo dawg, I heard you like alcoholic beverages. So I put some alcohol in your alcoholic beverage so you can booze up while you booze up.

[cedar turret]

https://www.goodto.com/recipes/cherryade

[obsidian wyvern]

cherryade is so good

I sneezed

[cedar turret]

third time is the charm

[normal owl]

I hate that I'm falling facefirst into that vibe...but yes I enjoy that. And to be fair, oftentimes the liquor must be underpowered in a mixed drink to taste the mixer's flavor, so the fact that Mike's as a mixer contributes to the drink's punch (har har) is a good thing to me.

[normal owl]

I do indeed mix Mike's Hard Limeade with cherry and strawberry flavors.

I know it shocks everyone that I enjoy a drink now and again.

Playing h5 again reminded me how much I hated the req packs

I think I have like 16% of the armor inventory unlocked 😔

[round laurel]

I didn't mind them. They were fairly frequent enough and I never felt like I was missing out on the good req cards.

But I'm sure if I played Warzone all the time I likely would've ran out of the legendary level reqs.

[ocean herald]

I just never seemed to get armor from them. And h5 was in my broke college days so I wasn’t splurging on reqs

[round laurel]

IIRC you're guaranteed to get armour in silver and above, as long as you haven't unlocked everything from that tier already.

[robust spear]

Are halo infinite devs in this discord?

[round laurel]

Yes.

[robust spear]

Damn, well if any see this, PLZ MAKE THE BR55 THE MAIN GUN IN RANK !!!

[jaunty sundial]

thank you

[ocean herald]

I’m gonna pay more attention and see how much armor I unlock. Honestly playing 5 again is a nice change of pace

[true kayak]

Play Warzone for more REQ packs too

[round laurel]

I've no idea what you've unlocked yet, but it's best to start with Bronze packs and work your way up when you unlocked all armour for that particular pack.

[amber mirage]

Silver packs give you one permanent unlock, Gold gives you 1 of a higher rarity. Golds will usually give armor.

[true kayak]

Wouldn't that be a waste of points? It's usually boosts and more weaponry for Warzone

[ocean herald]

It’s been forever I don’t even remember how to check if I’ve maxed out a level

[obsidian wyvern]

you start off at bronze, once you get everything from there you move onto silver. that way youre not unlocking bronze stuff for more points

and that continues till gold

youll kinda know if youve unlocked everything if youre only ever getting repeats

[ocean herald]

How do you know you got all the armor available at a given level?

[amber mirage]

You'll start earning REQ points instead of permanent unlocks

[round laurel]

Basically what Rev said.

Halopedia also lists it too: https://www.halopedia.org/Requisition_system#:~:text=.[8]-,Types of REQ packs,-[edit]

I had to Google it because it has been years since I played, so I wasn't sure if I was correct or not.

[indigo jasper]

anyone here an OG Halo 2 player? Am I going crazy, or is the average player way more selfish than the old days? I've played 5 game and not a single player played as a team. Those solo people all just played rumble pit and didnt bother team players, unless they got on ranked.

[elfin glacier]

honestly while it's hard to give a definitive answer i do think attitudes in general certainly could have shifted

yeah it's not a clear yes/no answer but it's hard to give one here due to the variety of factors in play

[indigo jasper]

Totally fair. Idk, people wouldn't even play ranked without a mic and a solid attitude about team play, in the H2 days... I played 2 social slayer, 2 ranked arena, and 1 ranked slayer. 0 teammates ran a mic. No one watched anyone's back or stayed/played together. Ranked KotH was less fun than a game of pubs in Apex legends.

[fickle drift]

halo

is a game

[radiant moss]

How can I get muted without breaking a single rule here

[static helm]

Not even OG Halo 2 that’s just every game, majority of my rage when playing For Honor comes from teammates not being teammates. Idk what’s up with this generation

[floral pollen]

You can always ask

[radiant moss]

There's like... a cool thing that apears right next to my name

And I can finally be free of Orange

[static helm]

An Xbox controller?

[radiant moss]

No, a ball

I want the ball plz, it's like a vanity plate

[static helm]

Orange is just North America folk, idk if you can get rid of it unless you change location lol

[radiant moss]

I'm going to Brazil

Qatar

Or, I'm gonna lie about my location >;3

[floral pollen]

you can deselect the role I think

#roles message

[radiant moss]

The ball is important tho

[indigo jasper]

I feel that. I think it might be a generational thing? I feel that in Apex. Teammates who are little kids telling me a suck because i dont run blindly into gunfire and die. Weird stuff. I was hoping I'd come back to this game and see some glimmer of the past lolol

[floral pollen]

I'd ping a mod but idk who's busy and ik half of them don't like pings

[radiant moss]

Nehheheh

Why do I feel like I'm illegal now

[floral pollen]

idk

[radiant moss]

I chose a random other role other than America

What even am I

Oh

[candid solar]

Yeah 343 was cooking pretty nice with Mimir. The armor's free for the current event in Infinite, super easy to get, but you need to finish the event by next Tuesday if you want it for free.

[solid abyss]

I dont have a way to play infinite :(

[normal owl]

I bet it does 😏

[candid solar]

Oof. Well, when you do, the pass is pretty cheap, relatively-$5, plus you get that nifty color scheme.

Easy to get with a few days of microsoft rewards points.

I wish you could talk to the bot...... I don't have what it says to do.

Oh yes I do. I don't get why it wants to turn off the pinging the person you're replying to.

[ocean herald]

That’s a thing in this server ping/no ping

[outer basalt]

Oh okay so it's not allowed?

[ocean herald]

It’s a user preference thing. The mods that don’t want to be pinged have a crossed out bell in their name

[obsidian wyvern]

if theyve got the 🔕 icon

[outer basalt]

Oh okay. Thank you. I didn't want to do the wrong thing or upset anyone.

Sorry Dozen. Didn't understand the icon.

[ocean herald]

Ironically they probably spend more time telling people to not ping then if they just ignored them/turned off pings

[normal owl]

You're all good! It's just a different thing about our server. You've got a good vibe and we're lucky to have you here.

[ocean herald]

lol did the bot delete your message

[outer basalt]

Awww thank you.... You have made me teary. Very stressful move. One of the two cars moving boxes decided to kill the starter motor, 2 special needs kids not adjusting to the move. I think I need to shoot grunts and elites.

[normal owl]

Those days are the worst: multiple things piling on like a group tackle. Those kids are very fortunate to have you looking out for them, and each stressful item is either overcome-able or temporary in isolation. Hope you get to purge your wrath on some Covies.

Getting eye candy by watching Batman returns, then it's look out Covies cause the Master B...ch is a coming.

[normal owl]

LOL that's one of the best ones yet

[lean plume]

Wow those spartans in the announcements look really cool

[outer basalt]

One of my dear friends has said that because I am a *itch and I love the Chief so much (also made AI art of me marrying him and preggers) that I am now Master B...ch 😆 I proudly claim this title. rofl.

[quiet warren]

the first halo had multiplayer on the original xbox right?

[fickle drift]

Over splitscreen and LAN yes

[quiet warren]

ok so basically halo 2 introduced the onliine

[fickle drift]

If we’re talking consoles then yes

The PC port of CE had online multiplayer in 2003

[quiet warren]

[fickle drift]

Yeah man H2 is 20 this year

[quiet warren]

yea i think when the first halo dropped i belive i was 8

but didnt play it till i was 10 thats when i got the xbox

[obsidian wyvern]

[outer basalt]

Because I am naughty and keep saying the wrong thing with the Bot and Admin, I profusely apologise and promise to clean up my act here as I enjoy this community. However if there are any members that would like to freely chat please do feel free to shoot me a private message ^_^

[obsidian wyvern]

oh man I just realised I'm 20 this year too. sounds like a huge jump from 19 to me

[steady jolt]

Couple months time I'll be double that 🙈

[outer basalt]

I am already double that and a little more lmao

I am 20 years late in discovering Chief. Until about 18 months ago I had no idea what Halo was or who Chief was.

[steady jolt]

Never too late to discover Halo

[obsidian wyvern]

the game just doesn't get boring because of how many ways there are to play it

[crude marsh]

Lbp was a series I unfortunately missed out on:(

[crude marsh]

[thorny bough]

I'm just tryna get better at infinite 🙈

[crude marsh]

Lmao same

[forest lagoon]

I really wish they would do another one. 1 and 2 had so many creative options and fun moments

[obsidian wyvern]

I would play it in the store whilst waiting for my parents to finish shopping

[crude marsh]

Wait… u have helldivers… and never told me…

[ornate sequoia]

Imagine treating a video game like a sport, and having to stay in shape just to have a good time 😭

[faint mantle]

Honestly I'm saying all this slander, but the only reason I haven't bought it is because I haven't finished doing adult math, and because I just don't have time after working. By the time I'm done, I already have to perform my going to sleep routine.

[obsidian wyvern]

hes stuck between buying titanfall 2 and Helldivers, he's leaning towards Titanfall 2 thankfully

[crude marsh]

[faint mantle]

I don't. My brother does.

[ornate sequoia]

cap

[crude marsh]

ugh

[thorny bough]

Yea I feel like that is an important one

[crude marsh]

Ah titanfall 2 is literally like 2 dollars when it’s on sale !!

[obsidian wyvern]

plot twist

[forest lagoon]

I pick Skate 3 even though I prefer skate 2 because there's more to do in 3 and those games can relax or hype me hype so there's never a bad time with it

[grizzled crypt]

titanfall 2 was the best when it was active

[ocean herald]

There’s a lbp they made for ps5 I thought

[thorny bough]

Oooooo you should look into the update

[crude marsh]

It’s still semi active thankfully

[candid solar]

Lost Planet 2 is a better mech game than Titanfall 2

No, I will not take it back

[faint mantle]

I didn't buy the Arkham collection in this sale, what makes you think I'll buy Titanfall to never use it

[grizzled crypt]

I dont have time to play many games anymore I only have tmnt on my switch lol ;-;

[forest lagoon]

Dude! Lost planet was one of my first online PVP games!

[crude marsh]

No Merty !!!!

[grizzled crypt]

Day shift yippie

[obsidian wyvern]

trench is a better person to listen to when he's bashing reach
No, I will not take it back

[crude marsh]

The Arkham games are soooooo good

[livid oyster]

[candid solar]

No actually you're cooking with this

[faint mantle]

I don't need convincing to play Helldivers. But I do need a lot of convincing to even begin trying Titanfall.

[crude marsh]

I love u Arkham games

[candid solar]

Rev what should I bash about Reach

[grizzled crypt]

plus sold my xbox needed the money ;-;

[thorny bough]

[obsidian wyvern]

a lot comes to mind

[candid solar]

Gimme a starter

[fickle drift]

I mean I agreed with Trench about the wanting more spin-off games thing

Just the SW comparison was weird given they're chronically incapable of getting away from legacy characters

[obsidian wyvern]

hey fake what do you like about reach

[livid oyster]

Emile was the greatest character

[crude marsh]

Ima keep it a buck, titanfall 2 is fun… for like a couple of days

[candid solar]

I already did Emile this week

[livid oyster]

Damn

[faint mantle]

There's what I wanted to know

[obsidian wyvern]

SHES WRONG

[forest lagoon]

In the not to distant future possibly maybe SOON™ I'll be able to say Skate. is the game I would pick if I only had one pick

[candid solar]

Not my greatest example, I'll admit.

[crude marsh]

I like the story, the characters, the mp, the missions, the forklift :3c

[fickle drift]

And when they do Andor you've got the 'muh lightsaber' crowd complaining

[candid solar]

It's more the intent than the execution, though.

[thorny bough]

They just don't understand 😪

[obsidian wyvern]

andor my beloved

[covert dove]

Reach and 3 will always be the goats

[fickle drift]

God I hope S2 is good

[obsidian wyvern]

😔

[covert dove]

Andor was phenomenal, praying the acolyte has a similar vibe

[forest lagoon]

Let me plug in skate. a little more. I'm definitely not affiliated with it at all

[crude marsh]

Reach was peaked since they had playable elites

[obsidian wyvern]

ok I actually need to jump back on these star wars shows after I'm done with black lagoon

[candid solar]

Screw it, Emile memery is evergreen

[thorny bough]

Ok this though 👌

[crude marsh]

I have found my people !!

[covert dove]

Playable grunts when

[candid solar]

So the entire point of having a reflective visor is to keep yourself from getting flash-blinded. It's literally the entire point of why MJOLNIR (And IRL space suit visors) are plated with a reflective surface.

[ocean herald]

Reach had the best armor customization until infinite added cross core

[livid oyster]

I’ve been sitting here trying to brainstorm other things. Was about to say the jet back was the best equipment, but you torn into that one this week too

[forest lagoon]

I see there is no skate. love here that's ok... I'll just be over here then

[silk pier]

Yapyap the destroyer >

[crude marsh]

I unfortunately also missed out on skate :(

[candid solar]

And this absolute idiot decides to give himself a wonderful case of flash blindness, the man wholly dedicated to fighting the Covenant over insurrectionists. Y'know, the guy who prefers fighting The people who shoot plasma cutter bolts. Have you ever seen a plasma cutter? They are bright.

[fickle drift]

The Jet Pack is aha, kinda a little 😬

[obsidian wyvern]

hey I enjoyed the game on the 360 for a good few hours

I had no idea what I was doing though

[crude marsh]

Jet pack was so fire tho !!!!

[fickle drift]

If it were my employee I'd fire it yeah

[ocean herald]

I’ve not played it much but I have skate 1 on ps3

[obsidian wyvern]

lmfao

[candid solar]

Honestly, half the reason Emile likely didn't notice his motion tracker was problably because of how screwed his retinas were after years of cutting out sections of his antiflash coating.

[forest lagoon]

skate 1 and 3 are both available with Xbox gamepass

[candid solar]

What's funny is, in a vacuum, there's nothing actually that bad about a single dude using a jetpack.

[forest lagoon]

skate. will be free to play coming out on PC, Steam, Xbox 1, Xbox Series, PS4 and PS5

In case y'all were curious

[crude marsh]

Just watch when they add jetpacks y’all will look foolish just wait & see !!

[candid solar]

It's annoying that the game forces you to use it at one point, and it's annoying that it's so slow, and one dude doesn't break the game just for having it. But when you have a 4 stack, communicating, that's when it becomes downright MP map destroying.

[forest lagoon]

Mkay, back to halo wars 1 for me

[crude marsh]

Halo wars my love omg

[forest lagoon]

I love the armor on the Spartans and it looks so good for a game that came out that long ago

[candid solar]

Oh, here you go, Slim, I got something I can work with. Let me fire up the good old fashion Blender.

[livid oyster]

Lol. It’s frustrating, but at the same time so funny seeing a stack have a coordinated flight

[candid solar]

The evergreen Trenchbird standby; The Halo Reach tacticool Grenade Launcher.

[ornate sequoia]

The redeemer gun from unreal tournament would be a cool port in Halo.

[candid solar]

Okay, so the Reach GL is based loosely off of an old school M79 Grenade Launcher. Looks like a normal tube GL, nothing exceptionally special about this gun IRL.

[fickle drift]

ngl, I immediately thought of Resi 2

[candid solar]

That is, until some idiot did this to it.

[faint mantle]

How do you even use the crosshairs on that thing

[obsidian wyvern]

cmon merty you've used a grenade launcher haven't you

[hardy storm]

I would die for Alice-130

[ornate sequoia]

self-explanatory really

[candid solar]

Kind of like iron sights. I have an old K11 laying around that has somewhat similar sights that can be flipped up for near-indirect fire.

[livid oyster]

Ah, an elegant weapon for a more.. civilized age

[covert dove]

It’s the same thing as what we use currently in the military for non-attached gl

[hardy storm]

Alice-130 100% unstraigtens me

[candid solar]

So, let me get this straight; Someone did the following. They slapped on, A, an entire integrated foregrip into the forward grip. For a single shot grenade launcher, where recoil barely matters, and stability is even less of a concern, because it's only about a 40mm. Weird as hell, nobody uses it.

[crude marsh]

Guys… I have never ever known how to use a grenade launcher aim-down sight

[candid solar]

They then proceeded to put a whole cage assembly around the barrel, with two picatinny rails.

[ocean herald]

It’s a GL, you don’t have to be super accurate lol

[faint mantle]

My only memories with the Reach grenade launcher is being shamed with it on a 1v1. Not a very fond memory.

[hardy storm]

Would let her hit me with a steel chair, no hesitation.

[crude marsh]

I just shoot & hope for the best

[candid solar]

IRL you do. The accuracy is kinda needed.

[obsidian wyvern]

you're already shorter than a grunt

[fickle drift]

As bad as Icky lol

[obsidian wyvern]

😁

[candid solar]

But I'm dogging on the Reach launcher.

[ocean herald]

🤓

[hardy storm]

ACTUALLY
You're right

[obsidian wyvern]

nah icky wanted to be.. it's best we keep his words outside this server

[fickle drift]

mmhmm.

[candid solar]

Anyways, the Reach GL also implements a carrying handle, for some ungodly reason. Presumably, that reason is related to the fact that the damn thing cannot properly mount a sling, because both of what can be best described as sling mounting points, are both on that ungodly front-heavy assembly I called a cage earlier.

[hardy storm]

Wish I had embed perms for 3 seconds so I could show myself next to a 6'7 Master Chief cosplayer. Legendary photo

[faint mantle]

Like how do you use these iron sights to aim. Are they actually useful

[obsidian wyvern]

send dms spoon

[crude marsh]

That’s what I’m saying !!

[hardy storm]

What makes me a good Demoman?

[covert dove]

Helps calculate arch

[crude marsh]

Iron sights on gl don’t make sense

[hardy storm]

Gochu.

[obsidian wyvern]

this is what I thought

[crude marsh]

I ain’t doing math to shoot ugh

[candid solar]

Because some godless man decided to not even have the common courtesy of giving the M319 so much as a wire stock. Heaven forbid we actually use a stock for a 40mm grenade launcher.

[covert dove]

They do though lol there is obviously numbers listed on the sights themselves, but yes, irl, grenade launchers (non-mounted) have them

[ornate sequoia]

Grenade launcher would be a welcome addition to Halo Infinite.

[fickle drift]

You know what, yeah. It would.

[obsidian wyvern]

anything would be at this point :pain

oh yeah

[crude marsh]

Idk sounds like a conspiracy /s

[candid solar]

Further additionals, there's so many damn switches and levers on the Reach GL that just belittle the very notion of 'common sense' weapon components.

[covert dove]

[obsidian wyvern]

we were supposed to get a unsc revenant what happened

[candid solar]

Fun fact, the Halo 5 Reach GL also has a uh... Set of iron sights.

[crude marsh]

They saw that was ur username

[candid solar]

Allegedly.

[obsidian wyvern]

gochu

[jagged plank]

yo revenant thanks for advice on shock rifle kill I got the achievement finally

[hexed geyser]

why doesnt my keys or trackpad work on inifinte Xcloud chromebook?

[candid solar]

Of course, these are somehow even worse than the flip-up sights for the MA5D, mostly by virtue of being thicker than a bowl of oatmeal.

[hardy storm]

You're a saint

[obsidian wyvern]

the joke is funnier seeing this

[jagged plank]

damn wondering how does it run?

[obsidian wyvern]

but man that helmet still looks amazing

[candid solar]

Rev pointed out that I am better when I'm bashing Reach and he isn't even helping. This is cruelty.

[obsidian wyvern]

that was just released the other day, it's only for Xbox insiders right now

[obsidian wyvern]

I don't remember giving advice honestly but np lol 😁

[hexed geyser]

then how did i get it?

[ornate sequoia]

Looks like a female master chief

[hexed geyser]

is it coz i have gamepass

[obsidian wyvern]

you're using sophisticated words I could never understand

[obsidian wyvern]

how do you know you got it if you said you can't use it?

[candid solar]

I do actually like the Reach GL round though. Caseless. It's kinda neat.

[hexed geyser]

do you mean my pfp

[jagged plank]

geforce now infinite runs pretty good if u wanna play on chromebook

[ornate sequoia]

no, the picture from 9:53

[candid solar]

Oh, also, fun fact-most of the chest rig 'grenade launcher' rounds in Infinite don't actually belong to a grenade launcher-they belong to whatever abomination the Pilum is considered to be. I assume the Pilum is meant to be a recoilless rifle, judging by its projectiles.

[jagged plank]

is this a new weapon?

[candid solar]

The pilum being the green tube rocket launcher from Halo 5, which is cool.

[ocean herald]

Ngl I just assume they’re all space guns and don’t think too deeply about the logic behind them

[quiet warren]

Has anybody ever found every skull on H3?

[fickle drift]

Yes
Me

[candid solar]

No.

[quiet warren]

How many are there if u can remember

[hexed geyser]

eh i have a Decent pc & im tryna think of a way to do 4 players via 1 pc & 1 Xbox one

[eager egret]

what is better:reach, or infinite

[jagged plank]

halo completionist god send

and halopediia

[jagged plank]

I remember that h5 weapon loved it

[candid solar]

🤓 <Me

So basically, 343i's Halo (Prior to Infinite's MA40, considering how often alternate models tend to cover the ejection port) tended to have a pretty damn grounded approach to how they handled firearms. They actually tried, consistently, to have extremely practical weapon designs when it wasn't a straight Reach or H2A rip.

Bungie's weapons trended towards the absurd, however, they also liked to use some "Ripped from real life but noncredible in design" setups.

[fickle drift]

13 in Campaign iirc, then 6 on the Mythic maps.

Plus there's one on Cortana that doesn't count, lets you spawn with a Splaser in the next level if you keep it.

[normal owl]

FAaaaaaake what's up homie!

[crude marsh]

Hi attorney !!! Hru ?!?!

[eager egret]

whats the best halo game?

[candid solar]

Considering I just spent the last 20 minutes dogging on Reach's grenade launcher, Infinite.

[faint mantle]

Wait a minute

[obsidian wyvern]

spartan strike

[covert dove]

Reach/3

[candid solar]

My favorite Halo game, not your favorite Halo game.

[viral dune]

Halo: Hot orange juice

[faint mantle]

I saw a Pilum at the Halo museum and Ron said it was going to be used in Season 2!

Where was the Pilum!

[viral dune]

Also @normal owl brooo sorry for not responding to your ping I was a bit busy at that time

[candid solar]

The objective Halo tier list

[normal owl]

I am fantastic: finished a couple hell weeks and now Easter Weekend is smooth no-work sailing for me (after doing some work tomorrow). And I'm having a reunion tomorrow with two of my best HS friends. It's gravy! How are you??

[fickle drift]

I audibly scoffed at the 2600 placement ngl

[candid solar]

IIRC there was actually a Pilum around one of the S1 sets. Can't speak for S2.

[normal owl]

No problem, just figured you should notified when the Call of the Hot Beverages goes out.

[jagged plank]

disrespect to my fav 2600 😭

[crude marsh]

Omg that sounds amazing!!! I’ve been trying to live lol but I’m on easter vacation so I shall sleep & rest up !!

[eager egret]

i like reach the best

[covert dove]

Anime halo goated

[ocean herald]

This is an awful list

[obsidian wyvern]

hm

[normal owl]

Sleep is the party that never gets old.

[viral dune]

🫂

[covert dove]

Worst I’ve ever seen from a “fan”

[candid solar]

You're an awful list.

[crude marsh]

The wisest of words

[hexed geyser]

imma see if i can run the MS Store ver & Steam ver of infinite at the same time

[covert dove]

It does, sleep wastes time

[jagged plank]

💀

[faint mantle]

My Easter vacation was truncated

[ocean herald]

https://tenor.com/view/breakdance-gif-26333355

[candid solar]

Wait until you see how much I hate 3.

[eager egret]

who thinks reach is one of halos best games

[candid solar]

I hope it's nobody here.

[obsidian wyvern]

I hate sleeping because I feel like I'm wasting valuable free time where I'm not disturbed

and then I waste it in this server

[covert dove]

One of the best video games of all times really

[faint mantle]

I wanted to work on a personal project but we had to come down to Michoacán to pick up my mom and my brother

[normal owl]

LOL we're all guilty

[eager egret]

I know

[muted rose]

Reach riding continues, I see

[candid solar]

What's funny is, Reach is the first Halo game I bought out of pocket, at listed launch price, with my own money.

Still hate it. A lot.

[faint mantle]

Worst part is we're going to see our cousins but we won't continue playing Mario Wonder

[viral dune]

It's either that or you procrastinate anyway

[obsidian wyvern]

you know the deal 😔

[jagged plank]

I never understood why older people slept a lot when I was younger and now the only thing I want to do at home is sleep

[crude marsh]

Y’all can play helldivers instead

[obsidian wyvern]

procrastination is my number 1 enemy

[normal owl]

I've heard that game is awesome.

[faint mantle]

Omg where were you 20 minutes ago

[covert dove]

It needs to come on Xbox 😔

[viral dune]

Yeah we can play that

You'll just... Have to buy it for me

[crude marsh]

It really does :(

[obsidian wyvern]

ok but he heard that game was awesome

he knows Titanfall 2 is awesome

[candid solar]

CE and 2 I gently pilfered (Eventually returned) from friends. 3 and ODST I got for free. 4 I got through trading a few of my gamecube games.

[faint mantle]

You have a compatible platform?

[robust spear]

Yo should I get discord nitro???

[normal owl]

Organizing my closet and checking my Diablo 4 download.

[crude marsh]

Oh sorry a blocked message now :////

[jagged plank]

ea be droppin their good games titanfall,battlefront

[viral dune]

I think my crappy laptop can run it at 1 fps, yeah

[covert dove]

W game, W developer, just overall an awesome thing I wish I could pick up 😔

[faint mantle]

Depends if you consider the usage of emojis is important

[robust spear]

Nah, not really

[crude marsh]

Time to save up for a pc !

[eager egret]

What is the worst halo game?

[fickle drift]

On that note I've finished with my playlist for work so I can probably call it now.

Until tomorrow.

[candid solar]

Reach

[robust spear]

Halo 5

[jagged plank]

halo 3

[muted rose]

Depends, what do you hate the most in games

[viral dune]

The one without hot orange juice

[covert dove]

One day, I just prefer Xbox tbh

[normal owl]

They said they're not opposed to the idea, I believe.

[faint mantle]

I couldn't get rid of nitro because I have permissions to use custom emojis here, where I spend most of my time. That is a privilege very few have.

[crude marsh]

Far enough

[covert dove]

It is but not for servers like this that remove that option 😔

[obsidian wyvern]

nightnighr!

[crude marsh]

But it’s a Sony developed game I think so who knows :/

[normal owl]

Man we get along. Same. I love that every single piece of software released for that machine is forced to be optimized for that machine.
