[safe dawn]

Holup fellow nj person?

[ocean herald]

I’m not

[polar chasm]

Like think about the potential. Maybe not the mechanics, but graphics wise it's like Halo Infinite. It will stay true to the original. They also release remaster versions of the multiplayer maps.

[safe dawn]

Wai- huh?

[ocean herald]

I’m being sarcastic

[safe dawn]

Idk why im reacting like this, microwaved pasta ( reheating it ) goes unessicarily hard

[proud valley]

Jiu-Jitsu is better

[safe dawn]

No one cares

[proud valley]

Ok, srr 😁👍

[ocean herald]

They already remastered CE and also remastered some of the maps, which were included in Reach. It would just be a step back imo to put that many resources into that endeavor

[polar chasm]

It would be alot easier than training the staff to a newer game engine like Unreal Engine 5

[ocean herald]

Oh I actually hate it. Reheated pasta is not always great

[proud valley]

Jiu-Jitsu is life

[storm lark]

Is halo 2 8 v 8 on mcc dead?

I have all regions selected

[ocean herald]

Not sure I follow

[proud valley]

Guys, come on, lets train jiu-jitsu

[safe dawn]

No, just give it a minute

[safe dawn]

Nah im good

[proud valley]

Lets fight jiu-jitsu buddy

[safe dawn]

Ill stick with planning how to fit karate and japanese swordsmanship into a stupidly packed schedule

[polar chasm]

The rumored remake is rumored to use the graphic engine Unreal Engine 5. Halo Infinite used the Graphic Slipspace Engine

[safe dawn]

My guns say no (im american :])

[storm lark]

Did halo 2a use unreal engine

[safe dawn]

No

[proud valley]

Ok, gun fight style solo

[safe dawn]

Again, no

[glossy thunder]

Yes

[storm lark]

Ok I got 2 answers

[ocean herald]

I know that part, I just wasn’t sure what you meant earlier. You’re saying the remake in unreal 5 would be a learning experience for their team(s)?

[safe dawn]

No it wasnt, google it

[polar chasm]

Yea, it's a different Engine from the one 343 currently uses. The staff need to learn how to use the new engine

Like different between C and C++

[ocean herald]

I don’t think they’d need to undertake a remake of CE for that to happen

[polar chasm]

True

I don't know about these rumors. The one that bothers me is the PS5 release

[normal owl]

That kind of thinking is why the gaming industry didn't actually grow the last couple years despite all the movement. When you run out of your own walled garden's players, you can either squeeze more out of them...or find new additional players. For years now, unit sales have not been what matter: engagement is what matters. So either we stop complaining about high shop prices or we accept that a whole other population will get to experience an IP that has traditionally been Xbox-exclusive.

[storm lark]

It’s been 10 minutes 😦

[polar chasm]

Yea, it sounds like alot work

[safe dawn]

either wait until you find a match or find a new gamemode, idk ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[polar chasm]

Didnt they tease a new halo game called Halo: The Endless

[ocean herald]

No clue

[normal owl]

@polar chasm Let's say, in order for Xbox to grow, it has to make about $100 selling toys, and there are 10 Xbox players who are used to paying $5 for a toy. Either Xbox can start trying to squeeze an extra 100% revenue out of those 10 players, or Xbox can allow 20 more PS players to access that toy for $5 each. Up until recently, Xbox and PS would only allow you to buy your toy AND play it in Xbox Toyland or PlayStation Toyland. But now two things have happened: (1) Xbox and PS are allowing more of their players to play with each other, and (2) Xbox has started allowing people in PS Toyland to buy Xbox's toys and PS has started allowing people in PC Toyland to buy PS's toys. So long as people can play together, the platform matters less and--over time--can in fact becoming a limiting factor.

The only thing we lose is the feeling "I'm a member of the one place that can play this thing".

[polar chasm]

I never said I was against people playing together. I'm just sick and tired of some dirty tactics some industries use to drive people away from their competitors. Like a hogwarts Legacy or Call of Duty

[normal owl]

I agree with you that exclusivity of content like in your two examples is unfriendly to consumers. I was addressing your original comment that, if Halo goes to PS, that Xbox should get a PS exclusive in return. It doesn't have to be a trade; expansion is its own good move.

[polar chasm]

I didn't mean it like that. It's just there are some nice games I wish we could play on Xbox. Like Helldivers or Spider-Man. Sony is really strict on Spider-Man

Like for instance, the Marvels Avengers game. They added Spider-Man to the story of the Avengers, but it can only be accessed on PS. Why tho?

They even pay game developers to keep Games off Xbox

[normal owl]

Ah I see, yeah I agree with you: Sony is much more tight-fisted with its game exclusivity. My guess is because "You can only get This Game here" has been their marketing driver for so long at the expense of developing any other engine for growth (vs Xbox thinking ahead with developing Game Pass and Xcloud). They have to use a prison mentality rather than a freedom mentality.

[polar chasm]

Xbox on the other hand has a different mentality. They're ok with sharing games. Equal opportunity for all platforms. That means no exclusive modes or any of that. The only edge, Xbox has is cloud gaming and game pass

[polar chasm]

Then ofc, there is Apple

[normal owl]

Agreed, and I love both of those things you mentioned: being openhanded and allowing for freedom of play is not only good optics, but it's the way that future gamers will expect as the norm. And Game Pass being a revenue maker that can operate free from only one piece of hardware allows for flexibility regardless of where the gamer uses it from.

[polar chasm]

And ofc, Game Pass not only makes Revenue, it also offers the options of playing games from many other platforms such as Phones, TVs, VR headsets (I am talking about Xcloud)

[normal owl]

You're right, and it's great: being able to pay for something once and being able to access it from multiple places.

[foggy dove]

How much money to change a pice of halo lore? Nothing crazy but it needs to be adjusted

[cedar turret]

Well, if you send me a large amount of money, I'll support your cause.

I won't be able to do anything to help, but you'll have my support unless it's stupid or bigoted

[foggy dove]

[shadow skiff]

Hey everyone, I live in Japan and I was wondering until when the Juneteenth items will be available? I want to let my friends in Japan know.

[rare cedar]

Typically a week to grab them

All they need to do is log into the game and they have ‘em

[shadow skiff]

Thank you bro.

[cedar turret]

yeah, no. Keep it clean

[foggy dove]

What if I just want him smoking gasoline?

[cedar turret]

Move on.

[foggy dove]

It’s legal depending and nothing wrong with it preaching like the hippies in 1964. Plus if it was enough money 343 would take it

[cedar turret]

Move on.

you watched someone play SWAT lol?

[smoky token]

[smoky token]

probably Tactical Slayer/SWAT

everyone has precision weapons, no one has shields

[signal wedge]

didn't know thats a game mode

[winter flame]

its pretty dull

BR starts its just who sees who first

its kinda fun with DMR/Bandit/Pistol starts ig

[candid solar]

Mangler starts my beloved

[unkempt goblet]

and the first game i inadvertently choose is Infinite on my 37th birthday

irony is always a step behind

[elfin glacier]

you know what's truly ironic? Trenchbirds favorite game, Halo Reach

[unkempt goblet]

still my favorite campaign

[smoky token]

true

it’s quite interesting how their favorite game is Halo Reach

[unkempt goblet]

it leaves one desiring more yet still stands out

and Destiny is what was created next, unless i'm wrong. i can't make sense out of that

I don’t see your badge, therefore you have no authority here

[rare cedar]

[dull thistle]

[winter flame]

I recall this being a thing and being really fun but the SWAT crowd hated it

Rather have a weapon that fires 3 shots at a time even though you only need 1 shot to kill a player….

Pretty sure they designed infinite’s BR to make it as easy as they could to hit a headshot

[latent sequoia]

I think that was the case in 4

[astral silo]

that's how all burst weapons are designed

[latent sequoia]

But I still never ran BR. Always ran DMR

[candid solar]

Which sucks because it was the funniest thing in SWAT. Spartan ragdolls are hilarious when the mangler is involved.

[winter flame]

True but they even added recoil that helps you lol

[severe jackal]

anyone know why ranked q times seem to be so long right now?

[plain lagoon]

Because it’s 3 in the morning

And the majority of players are American

[astral silo]

Just a hunch 🤣

[severe jackal]

oh wait

Which means the majority of the players are asleep

Bit of a long shot but are there by chance any official devs from 343 in here? If so I have a question.

[pulsar cobalt]

Most delicious pizza topping is tuna

There are, but it's not even 6am for most of them

Just ask and somebody here may know, your chances of chatting 1 on 1 with employees is practically zero. They're here, but mostly lurk

[sage token]

Fair enough. So my question really is this: why no halo reveal at the xbox games showcase? If anyone here has an answer as well I'll take it.

[hasty zinc]

there was nothing to reveal yet

[signal wedge]

because Halo 7 is not coming!

[steady jolt]

Yep, they mentioned a few months back (and again, i'm sure, a few weeks ago) that there are new projects being worked on, but it's too early to start talking about them right now

[steady jolt]

Don't spread misinformation please

@steady jolt well can you blame them? Its not the best time to be a halo fan honestly...

They really don't lol

They also had Joe, and he decided to move on

that is something i wish could happen, choose a number on the number emblem or just on armors in general.

Mark V (B) and Mark VII

[trim saddle]

yeah but we cant take those off if things dont work out.. lol

[normal owl]

I could not believe it when I later found out it was Colin Farrell.

[candid tusk]

Where there's a will, there's a severed finger and a story.

Perfect for assassin's creed shenanigans.

[trim saddle]

my ex took enough of my sanity, id rather keep all my digits lol

[candid tusk]

Respectable decision.

[forest lagoon]

The day I learned what degloving was (don't look it up if you like keeping food down), was the moment I discovered the benefits of a silicone ring.

[trim saddle]

but im not against ink, i have Scars arm from FMA tattood on me 🙂

[forest lagoon]

Though I do think about a tattooed one regularly. But then there goes my fidget toy

And don't finger tattoos fade quickly?

[trim saddle]

i dont need to research that, ive seen it first hand from a mechanic working on one of our trucks overseas.

[forest lagoon]

[rare cedar]

I wore a silicone ring cause military

[normal owl]

No need to point fingers here (sorry for the off-hand comment).

[trim saddle]

it became a requirement shortly after that, even gave soldiers $ to get one so it came to be no cost

[normal owl]

That's thumb-thing to celebrate!

[trim saddle]

you have an index of jokes rattling around at all times eh?

[amber mirage]

This is getting out of hand

[trim saddle]

pick it back up then

get a grip on the situation

[amber mirage]

I'm trying. It's tough to hold on

[hasty zinc]

IIRC that happened to Jimmy Fallon

[trim saddle]

oops butterfingers

[normal owl]

Yes, I don't want to take the wrist of being jokeless when the need arises.

[trim saddle]

Im glad youre flexible enough with your wit to be armed with a quick response

[normal owl]

Ha, that's humerus!

[forest lagoon]

@normal owl in case you missed a pun I'm proud of

[normal owl]

This was the o-ring-ginal pun that started it all!

[forest lagoon]

iirc that's part of what started the push of silicone rings becoming a thing

[amber mirage]

I want silly cone rings

[trim saddle]

its a well rounded idea

[steady jolt]

You're all definitely ahead of the curve on these puns

[hexed geyser]

hey im usually the puns guy

also Halo everyone

good morning

[normal owl]

I remember being very confused as a kid about "grading on a curve" in school.

[amber mirage]

Luckily, the bell rang not too long after

[trim saddle]

i want to be able to pick up an orange cone and yeet it like a fusion coil.

[amber mirage]

I want it too now that you mention it

[trim saddle]

among other physical objects in game

[floral pollen]

we need a chair throwable
ppl have been asking for it since Mark IV came out lol

[normal owl]

Underrated, nice one!

[trim saddle]

folding chair stance when

[signal wedge]

Halo doesn't even have destroyable lamps

[trim saddle]

but i love lamp

[signal wedge]

you can crash an entire car at a lamp post and it desn't break

[trim saddle]

reminds me of some of the trees in GTA

[floral pollen]

Yes.
it needs to be like that Jerome PepePunch meme lol

[frosty siren]

Is it possible to change your g mail account for your x box account

Uhh.. Link a new Gmail account to my x box account*

[trim saddle]

i think you can add a secondary one for account backup purposes and then switch that one to the main, then delete the other one.

i cant remember how I did it because i lost access to one of my old emails and had to switch it out otherwise i risked my account getting yoinked.

this was a while ago before they increased account security so you might have to chat with support about it.

[frosty siren]

Tks

[hexed geyser]

will there be a halo equivelant to mario day

[trim saddle]

January 17th? 1-17?

[meager linden]

Evening on my timezone

[hexed geyser]

thats the date i was thinkin' for it

[trim saddle]

well that depends on where someone is because the date arrangement depends on their country

cuz the US uses (MM/DD/YEAR) and others do (DD/MM/YEAR)

[hexed geyser]

oh so it'd might be hard for it to work

hope Infinite's Campaign goes on sale on steam later this month or july

[trim saddle]

the campaign is really fun. ive played through it a few times using different weapons as a challenge. I have 100% achievements in infinite finally, I was missing some of the multiplayer ones until a few months ago.

[floral pollen]

I did 100% campaign an main story in a bit over 8 hours
I did get the achievement for main story under 8 too

[hexed geyser]

im thinking now that Chromebooks are getting more powerful as we speak i wonder if the MCC could work on it one day

like its at the point where it can run steam games

[floral pollen]

but the eternal question: Can it run DOOM?

[hexed geyser]

yes

[floral pollen]

I now go back to writing after an attempt at a pun

[hexed geyser]

i hope the xbox handheld is a hybrid console if its true

[frosty siren]

HALOkart?

https://images.app.goo.gl/9Bnq5xQrtyz4puAN6

Welp time to 100% the halo inf campaign

[trim saddle]

my LASO run was done in under 8 somehow, so I got that achievement and the "under 8 hours total" one too lol

[floral pollen]

Never finished LASO
Did the first mission or two, but got stuck

[amber mirage]

LASO was my fastest run

[floral pollen]

did do Legendary tho

[trim saddle]

tank gun makes it EZ

[meager linden]

I'll do LASO challenge when I will get Hero rank career

[trim saddle]

i had tank gun and commando for LASO

[floral pollen]

I run tank gun and BR in campaign

[trim saddle]

until i got the striker sidekick that is

[amber mirage]

Tank gun and duelist sword for mine

[floral pollen]

BR is insanely good in Campaign and Firefight

I may switch over to the Striker if I get campaign again, but both are good

[amber mirage]

Now I kinda wanna play the campaign again. Aside from my first playthrough, all my others were speedruns. I enjoyed taking it slow more, so it'd be nice to do that again.

[trim saddle]

i take in the sights sometimes, its a really pretty campaign. just wish there was a bit of diversity

[frosty siren]

Untill u accidently drop the tank gun and have to loaf last checkpoit

[obsidian wyvern]

I've never used the tank gun in campaign ngl

used the hammer for my LASO run

[amber mirage]

I was fine with the map we got. Taking it slow, I enjoyed the more subtle differences in the regions

[trim saddle]

its really fun, especially with a few skulls on

[floral pollen]

Honestly
I like Infinite's campaign more that some ppl
I almost prefer the open world to some of the earlier campaigns, I just feel like it could be a bit smaller of an open world

[trim saddle]

im a huge fan or RPGs, so the open world and Halo mix was a huge "happy brain juice GO" moment for me

[hasty zinc]

I wasn't a fan of "soft locking" the other areas of the map, but I understand why it was done

[trim saddle]

they locked the air vehicles until a certain point too with the valor lol made me sad a little but i enjoyed being spiderman through the trees, or would that be tarzan?

[hasty zinc]

any character that swings will do lol

[amber mirage]

I liked being able to take things at my own pace. Being able to approach encounters with whatever weapons or vehicles I wanted, rather than limited by what weapons were scattered around the level.

Like not having to wait for the sniper mission if I wanted to snipe. I could just make everything a sniper mission.

[frosty siren]

Has a brute chopper always been so slow

LoL that pop up

Don't you hate it that when your checking your tac map then u start getting shot at after clearing the area

[frosty siren]

Finding skulls even with the loot site is kinda hard

[meager linden]

Easy actually

[whole pebble]

anyone here trying run some crossplaylist coop on pc

[candid solar]

I'd have liked it if we weren't playing as Chief. Hard to roleplay when the only option is a depressed green boy scout.

[ocean herald]

I would have liked to see some scripted events sprinkled in. Maybe some set pieces throughout the ring to make it feel a little more alive

For the last mission would have been cool to go into battle with all of the marines you’ve saved and get a huge battle scene or somethin

[fickle drift]

Can tell the marines were not factored in narratively whatsoever.

[candid solar]

I'm going to get caustic if I continue so I'm just gonna... Not continue.

[fickle drift]

Might as well have just been Chief, Pilot and Cor2na for the whole game.

[ocean herald]

Yeah not at all

[candid solar]

It was lmao

[ocean herald]

At a bare minimum imagine you are approaching an enemy structure/mission level and a group of marines pulls up ready to join you or bringing you a power weapon. Little small things to make saving them actually mean something

Maybe incorporate some halo wars elements and make it to were you can fortify the FOBs and have them be attacked by banished

[candid tusk]

Fallout 4-style base building added to Halo Infinite would be wicked cool.

Only as long as the bases actually get attacked though. Really disliked how Fallout 4 had it where if your defenses were strong enough raiders didn't even try to attack.

[trim saddle]

i like the idea but if you see something armed to the teeth, youd stay away also lol

[ocean herald]

Have them pull up to the FOB and before they get too close one of the grunts on an intercom can say “nevermind” and they turn around

[candid tusk]

No, it totally makes sense to stay away from the settlement titled "Kill-o-Tron 9000" but man, it stinks that once I make the "Kill-o-Tron 9000" I can't see it in action.

[obsidian wyvern]

Reverson Cooper brings us the hard-hitting news of our time from across the happiness spectrum.

[obsidian wyvern]

sad news of famous actor you liked and new update for that game you play*

[fickle drift]

Wait I just read 'digsite'

Realising I do actually care about that update

[hasty zinc]

don't worry no H2 E3 update

[fickle drift]

Some of this concept art is sick though

[astral silo]

[hasty zinc]

yeah def some cool stuff in that article

Bungie def had some great designs

[normal owl]

I miss Aegis. Wonder when he returns.

[night fern]

Hi guys

[trim saddle]

I dont hear any music

[normal owl]

Noted!

[astral silo]

man the broken halo ring in halo combat evolved looked awsum

[trim saddle]

Sharp response

[cedar turret]

Can the dead be composed?

[trim saddle]

DEcomposed

[candid solar]

I imagine it would more or less be junk code depending on how long the decay has been.

[cedar turret]

If they can and someone composed Mozart wouldn’t he be a composed decomposed composer ideally composing new compositions?

[normal owl]

If you remain andante'd and key-p up the compliments at this scale, I'll B flat-out overwhelmed.

Right in the middle of this heat dome, our building's air conditioning is out on one half of the building. Property mgmt says it'll be repaired tomorrow via crane crews. I thought humans would be better at HVAC repair than birds, but I'm not the expert here.

[pliant hatch]

parents just had to fix theirs which was 15k.

[normal owl]

dang that is not cool!

[ocean herald]

i normally keep my house at 68 but this week it's been so hot that we had to set it to 75 so our electric bill isn't through the roof

[normal owl]

dang, 75? that's pretty warm

[ocean herald]

it's so hot the ac won't really bring it down lower than about 72-75, even if we did set it to 68

so instead of making the ac try and work overtime the electric company in my area recommended everyone set it around 75ish

[normal owl]

Well hope it cools down for your area soon. Maybe the local ice cream place is looking for temporary interns lol

[pliant hatch]

at that point, I'd just buy some house fans and blast them right next to me.

[ocean herald]

it doesn't feel too bad with our ceiling fans on

it's just warmer than my norm

did you know: water stops fall damage

[frosty siren]

Is there a Gears of War discord... because Noone understands that for this Escape gamemode that u have to stay inside for as long as possible.. not escape

[winter flame]

Maybe it should be called “Stay Inside” rather then “Escape”

[candid tusk]

There is. As stckr posts it. lol

peanut butter and honey uncrustables, oh man

What do you call a child running through a store with the parents chasing 30 feet behind?

A minor escape attempt

[frosty siren]

I press verify and it dose nothing

[muted rose]

Craigona

[hasty zinc]

Craigtana

[trim saddle]

When Dr. Halsey goes to the gym, she usually works on her core-tana.

Craig doesnt have to work out, he has his brute strength.

[amber mirage]

Absolutely

[trim saddle]

Yap-yap doesnt do much at the gym, he just grunts a lot.

[muted rose]

He yaps

[safe dawn]

How do you think he got his strength...

No i dont care about the puns

[trim saddle]

People still play Gears 5? Wow.

[frosty siren]

There's no gears 6 out*

[tawny granite]

Would y'all mess with a Halo gacha game

[amber mirage]

We've had two

[normal owl]

Have you played the Hivebusters DLC campaign? It looks fun and I was planning on playing through it with a friend.

[amber mirage]

Hivebusters was fun

[frosty siren]

Yes pls

[graceful inlet]

Good Night Spartans!
(And Our Marines. 🫂)

[frosty siren]

I can do most of it solo. But that last part when you get 10 scalions with slavos,that's when I die,and when I play with random peploe.. they try to escape even thoe the challenge is to stay inside for as long as possible.

[amber mirage]

10 scallions sounds nice

[steady jolt]

I've had this before. You need to make sure your DM settings are set to allow messages. Sometimes it's globally allowing DMs, other times it's just for the server. You may need to leave the server and return and then check DM settings, then verify

[hasty zinc]

just eating them raw?

[amber mirage]

Raw, maybe part of a larger dish

I'll see when I have 10 scallions how I'm feeling

[hasty zinc]

https://tenor.com/bumtp.gif

[frosty siren]

Are any of you that is here, in the gears of war discord?

Or have Gears 5 escape mode?

[hasty zinc]

just joined it

worked fine

[normal owl]

I think Escape Mode is included in base Gears 5, while Hivebusters is a purchased DLC? I could be wrong though.

[frosty siren]

Are u able to do escape mode?

[normal owl]

I've played it before, yes.

[frosty siren]

Are u aware that they have challenges?

[normal owl]

I didn't know but I'm not surprised that they assign some challenges to the mode. It was a fun twist on the Gears gameplay.

[frosty siren]

Well there is this one challenge I am stuck on and if I play with random peploe.. they don't understand how to do the challenge

They try to escape as fast as possible yet to get the daily you have to stay inside for as long as possible and activate the Venom vans to slow the poison

[normal owl]

I can see how that would be tough to do with a team: seems like there has to be some skillful coordination among all team members!

[frosty siren]

And since the Gears of War verification thing is broke or something I can't have someone join me there

But it also could be the fact that I have a Medic build

[normal owl]

Hm, that's strange. I wonder what the complication is. Is this the right one?

[worthy walrus]

Finally some folks who also enjoy both gears and halo 😇

[obsidian wyvern]

you might have to add a phone number to your discord account

[frosty siren]

I tried it but I can't get pass the verification

I put down the pin and everything

[obsidian wyvern]

so it's a discord problem, not to do with gears. you should send an email

[worthy walrus]

That's the official gears discord. Their Reddit page has over 100k members though.

[obsidian wyvern]

worked for me as well just now

[frosty siren]

Can u rellay a message for me?

[trim saddle]

you have every resource available that we do.

[normal owl]

@frosty siren I would follow Rev's recommendation to contact Discord customer support for troubleshooting. I just got in too, so it looks it's a Discord problem for sure.

[frosty siren]

Ok

[trim saddle]

looks like its causing you some.. discord..

[normal owl]

Thank you!

[frosty siren]

Where do I go for discord customer service

[obsidian wyvern]

go to ur discord settings and there should be a support option

[normal owl]

https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us

[frosty siren]

Ok tks guys.

Now I gotta wait.

[normal owl]

At least you still have us here while you wait

[frosty siren]

Yep

Any idea on discord themselves response time

[normal owl]

I unfortunately have no idea, but I'm sure they examine all incoming requests and handle them in order.

[frosty siren]

Hopefully it isn't like roblox where they take 2 hrs to respond and say random stuff unrelated to your issue

[obsidian wyvern]

2 hours is quick

but I've heard roblox's support is pretty bad

like really bad lol

[normal owl]

Two hours would actually be a very fast response time for something as big as Discord. It will be easier and less frustrating if you change your mind from waiting for a response to "I'm going to do something else" and let the response surprise you.

[frosty siren]

So what dose your hlo inf skin look like attorney

[frosty siren]

I like the black it has

it's black and gold btw aegis

hm I think so in the HCS shop? Tough to find shoulder for it that don't have zones colored that bright yellow.

[obsidian wyvern]

pointing it out because idk where you got razer from lol

[normal owl]

That's exactly why I bought it: the clean shiny black.

[frosty siren]

[trim saddle]

im trying to play checkers and theyre playing chess

which is why i love firefight

[normal owl]

YES, I was trying to do that with EOD helmet and green visor and Cinder Ring, but that coating is the dirty aesthetic. SSG 2024 has the nice plastique black but unfortunately has bright yellow colored zones that clash with Death Trooper look.

Is it possible to unlock everything in HALO Inf with no Halo battlepass?

When did craig become the joker

[trim saddle]

anyway, gonna head out of work and grab foodage for the week. tah tah for now.

[normal owl]

Since he started listening to satellite radio.

[hasty zinc]

when was he ever not?

[normal owl]

Have a great one man. Bon appetit!

[frosty siren]

He took the Joker gas

[safe dawn]

Oh great, dc is in the halo universe now

[frosty siren]

Least I get to be the Flash in HALO now

[languid sigil]

y'all played destiny 2?

[safe dawn]

No

[frosty siren]

Yoooo imagine a spartan with the Speedforce

[safe dawn]

Would be pointless

[normal owl]

"Why so Sirius?"

[safe dawn]

Most speedsters are way faster, stronger, think faster, percieve faster, regenerate faster, and basically everything faster than spartans

[languid sigil]

imagine a dog spartan

[frosty siren]

Lol

[safe dawn]

Only thing might be th durability enhancements, but im 90% sure speedsters are similarly durable to spartans considering their powers

[normal owl]

Was really into it before and during the Lightfall time, but had to get divorced from it: it was trying to monopolize my gaming time lol.

[languid sigil]

is the multiplayer good?

[frosty siren]

U can have single spartan take on a entire planet anlone

In a short time span

[normal owl]

VERY good. Personal opinion: it's the spiritual successor to Bungie Halo's gunplay, plus added superpowers. Gunplay and moveset feel very very smooth and good.

[languid sigil]

dont y'all think that the halo reach mulltiplayer is better than infinite?

[obsidian wyvern]

no

[safe dawn]

Again unnessicary, a speedster can wipe out a planet in less than a second

[safe dawn]

No

[languid sigil]

can't get into infinite's multiplayer, feels weird

[safe dawn]

skill issue ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[normal owl]

Definitely a big departure from what people were used to, as was Halo 5 and Halo 4 before. But we'll see what the next one feels like.

[safe dawn]

But uhh, try playing pve modes b4 u do pvp to get a feel for the weapons and equipment

[obsidian wyvern]

or maybe they just can't like the game

[hasty zinc]

just playing against the same people and getting annoyed because of the monotonousness of playing against them
If you do this, it is bad and you should feel bad

[cedar turret]

you know that feeling when you're exhausted and everything just hurts

[muted rose]

Tf does this do, pull up a hologram of Cortana?

[fickle drift]

💜

[granite sky]

it injects the ai into your bloodstream

[deep jetty]

new suggestion, every game should have legendary difficulty halo 2 jackel snipers

[cedar turret]

I'll let the devs of candyland know

[hasty zinc]

both Milton AND Bradley?

[cedar turret]

Where should they set up?

[dreamy sparrow]

Heloo

[thorny briar]

So what exactly was the banished preparing for in the first mission on infinite

[obsidian wyvern]

they're fighting a war

[ocean herald]

They lost because their leader had a weird fascination with recording monologues

[thorny briar]

With who

Like how did master chief get on a banished ship and what happened to atriox

[obsidian wyvern]

the unsc?

[thorny briar]

I thought they were all gone

[obsidian wyvern]

and did you skip like 4 cutscenes

[thorny briar]

I went from atriox defeating master chief to… atriox being dead and master chief blowing up a ship

[obsidian wyvern]

"atriox being dead" was in the cutscene where chief got defeated

[thorny briar]

Wuh

[obsidian wyvern]

but then there were 3 more cutscenes after that one before the mission starts

https://tenor.com/view/atriox-halo-infinite-i-am-the-last-face-you-will-ever-see-master-chief-gif-24184901

the hangar exploding here

[thorny briar]

Oh I thought that was just them blowing up ships or something

[obsidian wyvern]

yeah but hows he gonna escape that lol

[thorny briar]

Magic

[obsidian wyvern]

you should go to YouTube and watch the opening to the game again, you've missed a lot

[thorny briar]

Not really

[obsidian wyvern]

https://youtu.be/kvXnjaJASZY?si=pgDZbpXrAZYBpJCm up until 9.30

[thorny briar]

I didn’t miss much

[forest fulcrum]

We chatting animations?

[candid solar]

I went back to play Chromehounds and uh

It's actually really funny how quick they start going 'philosophical' in mission dialogue

It's about as subtle as a sledgehammer

[hexed geyser]

for those who miss M rated-y Halo buy an australian copy of H5 & Infinite

[buoyant flax]

chat does the exchange market restock?

[green lava]

Bro please tell me why all my teammates leave or are just negative in ranked😪

[green lava]

I think every event there’s a new one I could be wrong tho

[buoyant flax]

bru aight

[elfin glacier]

"what if.... we live in a society"

[last fractal]

All the good halo players are on the MCC

[last fractal]

I just hate infinites art style makes it look like a cheap 2006 crisis 1 knock off

[elfin glacier]

so the original artstyle™ is a cheap 2006 crisis 1 knockoff

[green lava]

I would be on mcc but I ain’t got game pass rn😪

[last fractal]

Same lamp

[green lava]

All I do is play reach’s campaign on mcc rn

[haughty wraith]

Gotta have a disc fr

[green lava]

Bro how I get plat 5 in ranked slayer when I went positive and was mvp all my games😪

[hexed geyser]

guys im guessing my 9y/o bro will confuse halo CE for an N64 game when he switches to classic Graphics

[fickle drift]

I mean you can show him an actual N64 game to highlight the difference if you’d consider that an issue.

Goldeneye would be a good example.

[cedar turret]

confusing a game from 2001 with a game from 2001? Who would do that?

[safe dawn]

Halo infinites artstyle is based off of the bungie halo games, the first of which came out in 2001.....

[hexed geyser]

eh im sure he'll know he diference (Cuz he's played lots of n64 games)

[last fractal]

Yeah only one problem, it’s 2024 now

[safe dawn]

And crysis is dead if im not wrong

[granite sky]

one n64 game that will never be remade and remain forgotten forever is battletanx global assault rip

[last fractal]

Crysis 4

[safe dawn]

Using your logic, crysis is actually the cheap halo knock off

[cedar turret]

2001

[safe dawn]

Ty

[cedar turret]

November

[fickle drift]

I’m not sure what the comparison to Crysis is about anyway considering that game series was generally praised for cutting edge visuals.

[safe dawn]

Idk, he called halo a cheap crysis knockoff for its visuals, so i made it clear how little of an argument he had

[cedar turret]

The Crysis text adventure game did have stunning visuals

[safe dawn]

I- wuh- huh?

[livid oyster]

As a matter of fact, my pc CAN run crysis 3

[last fractal]

My Xbox can run crysis

[hexed geyser]

my pc can run Halo's CE-Infinite

[last fractal]

Infinites poor graphics are due to 343 not allocating enough resources

[safe dawn]

My pc can do none of the above

[bold sparrow]

Crysis, Destroyer of Graphics Cards

[safe dawn]

My guy, i recommend you go look at infinites graphics

[bold sparrow]

I dunno man, the Hydra has writing on it you can read in the stickers...

[indigo lotus]

No comparison with Crysis. But Crysis's graphics and unique designs was cutting edge and a head of its time in 2007.

[livid oyster]

Wasn't sure if he was joking, but infinites graphics are top tier

[hexed geyser]

its ok i was like you once 😦

[fickle drift]

Infinite looks great imo. It has issues in Campaign with repetitive environments but still.

[safe dawn]

All the guns have writing besides the banished guns i think

[bold sparrow]

Related: when do we get to know more about the URNA Seattle complex, 343. You can't just say it exists and then NOTHING

[hollow void]

Infinite graphics is good because it was released in 2021

[safe dawn]

Good thing i have an xbox one lol

[last fractal]

Crysis 3 is beautiful

[last fractal]

There ain’t even any blood bruh

[bold sparrow]

The Banished guns have other neat details instead like the leather wraps and bayonet wear

[bold sparrow]

And there's the deep core of it
Figured

[safe dawn]

Untrue, but a game doesnt need blood and gore to be good, so your point is auto discarded

[hollow void]

Halo is rated R isn't it

[elfin glacier]

it's rated PEGI16+

[fickle drift]

Incorrect

[last fractal]

No blood, no bullet holes, no explosions, no vehicle damage, no fx, infinite really feels boring and dull

[safe dawn]

Most games are rated M 5 and infinite were rated t

[livid oyster]

Run it on ultra with ray tracing and knock the sharpness up a little. Infinite is damn crispy

[safe dawn]

Uh, anyone wanna tell him?

[last fractal]

Infinite isn’t a good game, therefore your argument is immediately vaporized

[fickle drift]

I mean it’s low quality predictable bait at this point but still, incorrect on all fronts.

[elfin glacier]

ce-infinite are all PEGI16+

[safe dawn]

Being a good game is subjective, and i belive infinite is a good game, so i discard your argument

[hexed geyser]

i cant believe i Can do 5 Players on MCC & 3 on infinite via PC-Xbox Combo

[hollow void]

Weird how in the lore there are aliens eating humans and war crimes that makes the Japanese in WWII seem good. But in the games there is no decapitation or blood or limbs flying off

[last fractal]

Now that infinites been abandoned I really hope they learn and don’t repeat it on halo 7

[safe dawn]

Anyone wanna tell this guy infinite is still in active development?

[grizzled gazelle]

Found the Xbox Mini-Fridge in the wild.

[last fractal]

Limited resources

[hexed geyser]

infinite is still supported my guy

[bold sparrow]

Same with most series
Star Wars is no different with it's games

Oddly enough Gears of War is the only one I know that doesn't fall into that trap

Well and 40k

[elfin glacier]

because Microsoft

[last fractal]

It’s on life support now

[hollow void]

Like anyone feel the game lacks destructible elements? Like trees and lamp posts can't even be destroyed

[elfin glacier]

see also: we never fight insurrectionists

[indigo lotus]

It was a M rated on CE-4. The M rating for Halo was equal to a pg-13 film.

[elfin glacier]

wow chasing trends????????

[safe dawn]

My guy, you are wrong, just give up and pack off before you lose any more arguments

[bold sparrow]

A true shame in truth for I would like to enforce the UEGs sovereign rights at the end of my armored fist

[last fractal]

So the now T rated is equivalent to the my little pony game

[elfin glacier]

literally COPYING battlefield

[bold sparrow]

Let me put an innie through the WALL

[elfin glacier]

no it's PEGI16+ like every other halo fps

[livid oyster]

Battlefield copied red faction

[safe dawn]

This is so hilariously untrue

[cedar turret]

Halo/My little pony crossover when?

[safe dawn]

Hopefully never

[bold sparrow]

There's a game series that needs another installment

[cedar turret]

Ooh... and they can port over the doomicorn armor from doom

that would be awesome

[green lava]

I got the disc I be playing reach and 3’s campaign

[last fractal]

I wouldn’t call salvaging battle pass skins, giving 1 for free and 5 that would have been in the battle pass in the shop for $40 “support “

[bold sparrow]

The fanbase did tbat near instantly

I believe they call him Hayster Chief

[hollow void]

I feel like having things ramming a lamp post with a Warthog will destroy it but no

[safe dawn]

Bro missed the exchange and match composer updates

[last fractal]

You need to finish 3 ops to buy 1 single helmet lmao

[livid oyster]

Don't worry, as soon as Elon gets his hands on mars we'll be living red faction

[bold sparrow]

I doubt he's touched the game in years
Raging at what he remembers in the same way Destiny haters are despite Final Shape being awesome

[safe dawn]

Anyways, my phone has a system update, so im off, enjoy dealing with this guy who chose a gun with a mid reputation as his name

[bold sparrow]

Works for me. I wanna SMASH

[hollow void]

Battlefield 3 has better graphics than Halo 4 both released same year

[last fractal]

I’m more of an infinite warfare type colonization of space

[bold sparrow]

Also the Mac-10 is trash and always has been.
Printed sheet metal M3 Grease Gun wanna be.

[elfin glacier]

esrb dumb

[last fractal]

I play it maybe once a week now that I’m bored of it and the crappy armor

[bold sparrow]

You don't have any knives on your armor do you

[hollow void]

We need a game based on Forerunner Human war fr

[hexed geyser]

so you are basically playing rip off halo?

[bold sparrow]

BEHOLD

And this isn't even my true power
With the new sets I can have a knife of some kind in every single armor slot but the visor

[last fractal]

Mac10 sounds better

The mac10 is the ancestor to the g18

[bold sparrow]

The - is official sadly my dude

[hollow void]

Why is there so little options for the Mirage armor

[last fractal]

Ong

[cedar turret]

cause you just imagined it?

[bold sparrow]

(There's no Ghosts of Onyx cover equivalent if that matters)

[last fractal]

At least we now have gears of war

[bold sparrow]

In a year lol.
And they're backtracking cause they lost the story

[last fractal]

Just make it brutal and close to gears 1

[hollow void]

Where do you guys think Spartans keep their ammo magazines and nades since it's not visible

[last fractal]

They’ll have a hit just like doom

[last fractal]

Ask the master cheeks that

In the show he can be seen pulling out a mag from his rear

[hollow void]

The cheeks

[last fractal]

Yes

[elfin glacier]

wow you're like a bot trained on r/halo

[bold sparrow]

This man's desperation to seem like he's anything other than sad is impressive

Try something new mate. Come on. Reach into the lore

Go on. Give us something that wasn't made by a YouTuber

[fickle drift]

yo do you guys mind if i drop a poll here. joined the halo discord specifically to see what halo people think of something

[hollow void]

It's not allowed here

[last fractal]

Type your poll manually

[fickle drift]

that's unfortunate. gotta do it the old fasioned way huh.

How do you feel about button glitches in Halo 2? BXR, double-shot, animation canceling etc. Good for the game ✅, Bad for the game ❌, I don't really care about it ❕

[last fractal]

Is there a pride armor?

[modern lantern]

is anyone else's halo infinte crashing ion the loading screen when starting up?

[hollow void]

There is rainbow colour for cores

[lime scarab]

do anyone else have a problem of textures not loading properly (halo infinite)?

[modern lantern]

i cant get the game to load in but i never had issues with textures

[lime scarab]

damn, idk why, but first time I played the campaign (when game was new) I had 0 problems, but now when I play in the open world textures don't load properly

[modern lantern]

welp what are we gunna do? remake halo infinite?

[last fractal]

Jtoo late
