[gritty meadow]

I mean steam players

[hardy wolf]

Mann my laptop stopped working, I can’t play games till it’s fixed, and if it will not be fixed I think it will take atleast many months for them to buy me a new one

[frosty siren]

Guess that means you gotta touch grass...

What there's MTN DEW COSMETIC

[willow moth]

How’s everyone?

[frosty siren]

Tired

I don't wanna wake up at 5 AM for school

[willow moth]

Oof 5am I feel ya I used to wake up at 6

I do miss school now tho

What year you in if you don’t mind me asking

[dreamy ledge]

Panzer Battalion......

https://tenor.com/view/master-chief-halo-rage-enervé-casser-gif-15145743

[dreamy ledge]

Real good

[willow moth]

Good to hear wyd?

[meager linden]

Pretty good
But still I want sleep ever more

[dreamy ledge]

About to start school

[dreamy ledge]

This is my senior year, so W

[frosty siren]

School year?

[willow moth]

Yea year 2 3 4 etc I’m from Australia we say year well most do year grade same same

[frosty siren]

11th grade

[willow moth]

Liking it?

[frosty siren]

Ehhhh.. kinda.. but this new school I'm at has a strick phone policy

[meager linden]

In my time I hated school so much, but now now I really missed it

[frosty siren]

How am I sopost to watch a single Halo lore video for the 3rd time all

https://youtu.be/pngSo_Lt2oM?si=kH1-AgtfgWTZ03Pd

This vidoe.

[willow moth]

Oh how fun

[willow moth]

Yea I used to think that leaving school would be the best now I just want to be back at school

[fickle drift]

Sup guys! Just thought I'd hop in! I got the Master Chief collection a few months ago and it has overtaken every other game I was playing. I have so far beaten both Reach and CE on Legendary and have been spending an extensive amount of time in their multiplayer suites. I'm better at Combat Evolved than I am Reach, I think.

[willow moth]

Go back 5 years with what Ik now yk

[frosty siren]

Also the Pillar of autumn has a reactor so effective it can make the ship go so fast it will destroy its slef because it went to fast and not a melt down

[willow moth]

On legendary? I rage and get bullied on heroic

[frosty siren]

Lazer cooling is that effective

[fickle drift]

Oh, I'm terrified of when I do 2. I've heard stories.

[willow moth]

I started on CE and I was like yk ima do all the halos on heroic but infinite that was a nightmare

And so far I wish to go to normal as heroic sometimes just it seems so unfair sometimes I spend half an hour on one spot just because of the dumb game really I’m glad I didn’t do legendary

CE was a pain but tbh the library wasn’t to bad until the end part where the rocket flood came or they rushed me with shotgun flood

[meager linden]

Ha ha
I ended up in any halo game with legendary difficulty except halo 3 ODST

[fickle drift]

The checkpointing on T&R and Keyes sucked.

[frosty siren]

AMATURATURES I SAY AMATURATURES

[fickle drift]

WORT WORT WORT!

[frosty siren]

LEGENDARY AND HEROIC HARD

Ooooh no no no.. that's ez compared to...

[willow moth]

Heroic ODST isn’t to bad tbh the bugs are the worst tho

[frosty siren]

LASO

[willow moth]

Laso……

[fickle drift]

Hey, I still beat it didn't I???

[willow moth]

I got a new challenge to one up laso

[meager linden]

Only Cairo Station is very hard on legendary

[frosty siren]

I still stuck on the 2nd mission of laso HALO CE

[fickle drift]

I'm dreading it... I'm a game completionist.

[frosty siren]

Laso works best with a friend that knows how to play

Butttttttt u can do laso training

You put it on legendary and then on SOME of the laso skulls

[haughty wraith]

Laso seems like a terrible experience

[frosty siren]

IT IS

[haughty wraith]

Like, i can't even beat uprising with the non scoring skulls on, on legendary

[fickle drift]

I dislike the skulls that remove guns and HUD. It ruins the immersion for me.

[frosty siren]

I only beat the first mission because I had my 2nd control of slip screen so I can get checkpoints

[willow moth]

Halo laso
Brightness at the lowest possible with inverted controls using a the OG Xbox controller and can only use the weapons the game gives you at the start

[frosty siren]

Least u can can when you are holding a fuel rod cannon that takes up half of the screen

[fickle drift]

Truly an evil genius. You should give the Prophets a ring, I hear they have a recent vacancy.

[haughty wraith]

I think we can universally agree that Halo 2 legendary was absolutely scuffed

[frosty siren]

Annnnnd the bumpers and triggers are swaped

[fickle drift]

I'd forgive it entirely if they put Blow Me Away back into Anniversary

[haughty wraith]

They don't have the rights to the song

[fickle drift]

I know, but how hard would it really be to get it back?

[willow moth]

And every 30 mins i change the layout of what does what on the controller and take of the inverted every 10 mins to swap it back every 10 mins

[haughty wraith]

Expensive

[frosty siren]

Use spotfiy for the song

[fickle drift]

aaaand the controller is always vibrating at maximum intensity

[fickle drift]

though, considering Ben's current feelings on 343...

[willow moth]

So RT jumps and A shoots

[frosty siren]

And the graphics are so detailed the game lags. (Since it's on the og X box

Also when a flood pod infector dies it dosent pop and kill nearby pod infector

And every flood form has rockets

[fickle drift]

And every carrier form dies with a plasma explosion

[frosty siren]

And flood dosnet have Friendly fire on

[willow moth]

Nah that’s just silly there they got shotguns with other stuff mostly shotguns

[fickle drift]

The humanity

(Or lack therof)

[willow moth]

And take 4x as much to kill

[frosty siren]

And it has the flying flood bird things from halo wars 1

[fickle drift]

And the IWHBYD skull affects Guilty Spark and he's being more sus than usual

[willow moth]

Ok so this may be a hot take

Halo wars 1 legendary was close to perfect

All other halos make it to silly

[frosty siren]

O NO BOT HALO WARS 1 LEGENDARY RUN

I already has normal playthrought ptsd with the cilavian mission

You gotta defend 3 shuttles... PLS NOT THAT AGAIN

[willow moth]

You don’t need to defend the 3rd

[frosty siren]

I dont...

[fickle drift]

Haven't played any of the Halo Wars games so I'm not sure I have any valuable input on this topic

[frosty siren]

Really? : O

[willow moth]

It dies no matter what but imo go for helldivers and just look after one don’t worry about the civilians

[willow moth]

Halo wars 1 is before any other halo i believe

[meager linden]

Even on normal difficulty Halo Wars feels like legendary

[willow moth]

Wym?
(Why is there a 10sec timer)

[frosty siren]

That mission was the first one I lost in halo wars 1

[fickle drift]

That's what I've heard. I've always been fine starting with Reach though. I've just never been a RTS guy. I will check it out eventually though

[frosty siren]

Minus the scraba buts that's because I was just doing eco.

[willow moth]

Halo wars 1 is goated

[frosty siren]

Remember reach.

[willow moth]

A normal human 1v1 an arbiter and won

[frosty siren]

For the record...

I whoulf of won the first time if the Lady didn't stop me

[formal rapids]

Hello

[fickle drift]

Hello

[willow moth]

https://tenor.com/view/sgt-forge-halo-wars-coffee-hot-coffee-halo-gif-24417699

Aww no gifs 😔

[meager linden]

Yep
If chronologically Halo Wars 1 was first
Then Reach

[willow moth]

Then ce etc

[fickle drift]

So do people come to this server to find players? I was trying to play CE BTB last night and couldn't find any lobbies. Everyone was in 4v4

[willow moth]

ODST 2 or
ODST horror game (flood)

[willow moth]

Here mostly to ask questions

[upbeat lintel]

Anyone here have Halo Infinite Campaign?

I need a co-op partner

[fickle drift]

Also where does Infinite's Legendary rank among the other games in terms of difficulty?

[upbeat lintel]

It's not too bad

[willow moth]

Probably higher then 2 imo heroic was sooo hard think it took me 4 days to beat

Or longer

[upbeat lintel]

I did it in co-op LASO last night and beat it in 1 sitting

[fickle drift]

NICE

[willow moth]

Then I’m just crap or the made the NPCS weaker also question why are the NPCS so bad? At everything shooting driving mostly

[upbeat lintel]

Yeah ty

[upbeat lintel]

I used tank gun

[willow moth]

Like on hr Kate was driving into the wall like a good min before I was killed while on gunner

[meager linden]

I beat legendary on 3 days

[frosty siren]

1. I can tap link. 2. You gotta be a inheroiter rank

[willow moth]

So guessing I just need to be here a while? Is that when the timer goes away to

[frosty siren]

Staff gives it to you

[upbeat lintel]

I literally have 4 achievements left in Infinite and I want to get them done today. All 4 are co-op ones 😦

[willow moth]

Ok well something is really different cos i played it not longer after release and it was so hard

[frosty siren]

I think for after 1 yr on server

[meager linden]

Not staff, bot

[willow moth]

And the timer?

[frosty siren]

Idk about timer

[willow moth]

You got the timer to?

[frosty siren]

Uhhhhh. I lost my rank

Cus I don't listen very well... also bye school

[willow moth]

Rip

[gritty meadow]

Hi, I'm looking for someone who could give me family access so that I could complete achievements in the Halo Infinite company, write me a private message and is it even possible to get them this way? I mean steam players

[hasty zinc]

Infinite does not allow family sharing

[formal rapids]

How are you

[hasty zinc]

also this isn't the server to ask for that sort of thing, since it breaks Steam ToS

[amber sand]

343 doesn't care about aisan player

[steady jolt]

They do

[mortal spear]

I went from going 7 wins in my last 25 to 17 wins in last 25. Idk if the game just likes me right now or what

[sturdy fjord]

Wassuup my pmc people and the other unsc ones

[mortal spear]

how many games do you have to play on a new account to play ranked?

[sturdy fjord]

I don’t know

Is navcom still running or not

[sturdy fjord]

Yo

[mortal spear]

yo

[obsidian wyvern]

25, but it may have gone up to 50

[mortal spear]

lol what

[rare cedar]

50

[steady jolt]

I thought it was 50, but I can't remember when the announcement was

[sturdy fjord]

Let run some halos infinite slayer

[obsidian wyvern]

I think it went up to 50 because there was a cheating/smurfing problem or smthn

[mortal spear]

im at work unfortunately

[sturdy fjord]

Just message me when you are available

[mortal spear]

I dont have a rank in ranked slayer btw

[sturdy fjord]

That fine

[mortal spear]

makes sense. Ive never made a new account before.

[mortal spear]

you only play slayer or arena too?

[sturdy fjord]

No

I play other games mode

[mortal spear]

sweet

[sturdy fjord]

I have a team of people that I play with every day though

[mortal spear]

oh nice, ive only ever solo queued. I dont have any friends that play

[sturdy fjord]

Today you will today

[meager linden]

I don't have any friends that play
My man

[sturdy fjord]

Because I have about 20 people that play halo infinite for real

[sturdy fjord]

Are you looking for more friends to

[meager linden]

No
I no need them

[sturdy fjord]

Are you sure unsc

[meager linden]

The only one my friend is the voice In my head

[rare cedar]

Can’t tell if you meant to say uncs as in uncle or UNSC

[sturdy fjord]

I don’t like all unsc clan

[void wharf]

Hello friends

[normal owl]

Guess what I woke up early to do today!! That's right: set up all my game settings so I can dive in when I get home from work!

[sturdy fjord]

I like 6 out of all of them

Navcom is my number one favorite unsc clan

[obsidian wyvern]

hell yeah, hope you have fun after all your hype

[normal owl]

The theme music is banging. Composer did a great job.

[normal owl]

Thank you man! I am beyond excited.

[sturdy fjord]

I like navcom and sor

[rare cedar]

Enjoy the game good sir! Lemme know how it is

[sturdy fjord]

Ayo do you have halo infinite skins

[rare cedar]

I have armor coatings, yes

[normal owl]

I will! I just had time to take a few steps in the opening area, but it so freaking cool to see a Star Wars world, characters, total environment built out around me.

[sturdy fjord]

What clan are you @rare cedar

[candid solar]

I blame @elfin glacier for waking me up again

[rare cedar]

I saw there’s no load times when flying MH into a world and I was like

[rare cedar]

Panda clan

[sturdy fjord]

How many members

[rare cedar]

739274617.62

[normal owl]

I can't wait to experience that

[sturdy fjord]

Who ip is that

[rare cedar]

If you want to join a clan, you can visit #1076334026090094602 and scout there

[sturdy fjord]

I’m not joining one

[rare cedar]

k

[sturdy fjord]

I have a big clan over 249 members

[obsidian wyvern]

lol

[normal owl]

Over 249 members? Like one of them is 0.5 or something?

[sturdy fjord]

Nah I been recruit every day man

[obsidian wyvern]

my laugh got censored 😩

[rare cedar]

I saw

laughs in hidden

[normal owl]

Very nice! You can do so in #1076334026090094602 but all other channels are not for that.

[sturdy fjord]

I don’t do that I recruit on the game not here

[rare cedar]

You’re missing out on thousands of new recruits each days

[normal owl]

You're putting it out there here, which is recruiting activity. Thanks for understanding.

[sturdy fjord]

I don’t do that because I know some people be very disrespectful

[normal owl]

Soliciting interest to know more is recruiting activity.

[sturdy fjord]

Trust me I know the best way

[normal owl]

I believe it. We're just reminding that trying to stoke curiosity or invite further questions are standard sales/recruiting tactics, so please refrain from doing that further outside of #1076334026090094602

[sturdy fjord]

You right coach

[normal owl]

Wish you the best with it though: glad you're rocking a healthy group there!

[obsidian wyvern]

first halo 3 laso mission completed

[amber mirage]

I hope you miss the Pelican and jump into the water and have to restart the mission

[obsidian wyvern]

idk why my crosshair didn't appear in the screenshot though lol

[meager linden]

Ain't blind skull exists on halo 3?

[obsidian wyvern]

yeah

[normal owl]

So hard to concentrate: I just want to go home and play.

[iron thicket]

Real

[iron thicket]

First time playing Halo 3 I did that and I was so angry

[jade gust]

Blind skull doesn't remove the scoring UI when in gameplay

[obsidian wyvern]

he means the crosshair i was talking about

lol

[sturdy fjord]

You use to play halo 5 right

[iron thicket]

Godddddd I wish halo ce and 2 were backwards compatible with the series x

[sturdy fjord]

Can I pet your bird

[iron thicket]

Don't have one, my pfp is an image I found on google

[obsidian wyvern]

yeah?

[sturdy fjord]

Can I pet you then @iron thicket

[iron thicket]

💀

Hard pass, sorry

[sturdy fjord]

Okay cool

[sturdy fjord]

Can I give you a hug 🤗

[obsidian wyvern]

no please leave

[sturdy fjord]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Aegis wassup man

[iron thicket]

Anyway, this would be absolutely insane

[obsidian wyvern]

dudes desperate for any sort of affection 😔

I'd go mad

[iron thicket]

Me omw to spend $100 on unlocking all the seasons and ops (I procrastinated so hard I still haven't finished season 1):

[meager linden]

I still have a few seasons that I haven't finished yet

Gotta need them to buy and finish

[iron thicket]

I'm tier 95 in season 1 and tier 20 in the winter update. That's how far behind I am lmao

In MCC I completed season 1 and am most of the way through season 2

[valid portal]

I haven't touched infinite outside of the few times a friend was online on it, and chaotic forge firefight
I'm thinking about jumping back into the game on deck or on my xbox one

[iron thicket]

I play infinite only like an hour a day. Good lord, the slayer in that game can get sweaty

[amber mirage]

Sweaty is a state of mind. If you choose to relax, everything else will follow.

[iron thicket]

It's a bit hard to relax when your team goes 50 - 16 due to how busted the sbmm and team balancing are

[normal owl]

Being sweaty is the pits!

[amber mirage]

You lose, you take it in stride, and you move on. It's always been like that.

[iron thicket]

Idk I feel fine losing in every other halo game. Something about infinite just hits me for some reason

[meager linden]

For relaxing I recommend firefight games

Fun and profit

[valid portal]

I can't relax in public pvp games but I oddly can when playing with 2 other friends in a private lobby or doing public firefight

[iron thicket]

Firefight is fantastic

[iron thicket]

Oh yeah 100%

[bold sparrow]

We finally getting full red/blue skins now?

[iron thicket]

Don't we already?

I fw the cadet violet, been using that since day 1

[bold sparrow]

Its less bright I think. This is more of a vibrant blue and red

[iron thicket]

Ah ok

[meager linden]

Firefight:Battle for Reach playlist

[valid portal]

I would like infinite firefight alot more if they lasted longer

[meager linden]

Like to 10 points?
But then we need a lot bigger maps than we have right now

[iron thicket]

I remember grinding halo reach firefight offline

[valid portal]

Perhaps having a variety of firefight gamemodes aswell

[iron thicket]

I'd do LASO, invincibility, infinite sprint, and a rocket launcher-fuel rod gun with bottomless clips and go for hours at a time

[meager linden]

What are people talking about the "Red and Blue" reference?
It was kind of a show?
I don't know really, I met the Halo franchise in 2024😂

[iron thicket]

Red vs Blue was a web series that started in 2003, and is a cornerstone of Halo imo

[polar sail]

you can find like complete compilations of it on youtube if you want

[iron thicket]

If you wanna pay for the rooster teeth channel's membership on yt, then you get all the seasons

[valid portal]

a machinima (guaranteed that I didn't spell it correctly) series

[iron thicket]

I think you spelled it right

[valid portal]

Although the only machinima series I watched alot is
Freemans mind and that's about it

[obsidian wyvern]

#general-chat message

[fickle drift]

It's crazy how ingrained that series used to be with Halo in general.

https://tenor.com/view/reminiscing-those-were-the-days-the-good-old-days-good-old-days-past-gif-11810763

[iron thicket]

I will eternally curse wb for shutting down rooster teeth

[polar sail]

as you should

[fickle drift]

From an outsider's perspective they seemed like a liability for a while prior ngl.
Can't exactly blame them.

[iron thicket]

'Till the day I die and beyond. I will teach my children to curse them, and they will teach theirs, and so on until the end of time

[polar sail]

context for seeming like a liability?

[fickle drift]

I guess Gen-Lock did really well and I didn't hear about it

Or RWBY made a massive comeback

[valid portal]

I can guarantee it's available out there though because it's the internet

Something that was once so popular cannot be taken away

[iron thicket]

#general-chat message

It's on yt, just behind a paywall

[fickle drift]

Granted I haven't followed RT since what, RvB hit S15? So I'm admittedly way out of the loop.

[iron thicket]

I think they hit season 18 when they were axed

[fickle drift]

Just, given WB's track record they've cancelled things with more potential elsewhere so RT shuttering doesn't surprise me.

[polar sail]

ah okay

[iron thicket]

It doesn't surprise me, but it angers me to my core

[valid portal]

Wait
Why did warner Brothers go after them? Was it the music used?

[iron thicket]

Warner Brothers owned RT

[normal owl]

Yes, the money saved was music to their ears.

[valid portal]

Oh

[pulsar cobalt]

Strange reach focused firefight mode banished looking armour 😂

[iron thicket]

I think I'm in the minority when I say RGB lights look ridiculous on gaming equipment

[valid portal]

I don't like blinding lights because glasses glare

[polar sail]

thats so real

[fickle drift]

Good song though imo

[wispy pumice]

Howdy

[iron thicket]

I really wanna get that xbox series x minifridge. It's fantastic

[valid portal]

I was considering a series x until I remembered my experience with my xbox one s (it's a decent console but I hate using it)
And I didn't go with a ps5 either because of the helldivers 2 situation driving me away from sony

[iron thicket]

Oh I have a one s also

Always wanted a one x though

[valid portal]

I went with a steam deck instead of a next gen console because I'm sick of paying for online play and locked ecosystems and such

[stable spruce]

any advice for convincing someone to play halo?

[obsidian wyvern]

I would not convince anyone to play halo

[polar sail]

annoy them into it like one of my friends did with me and now i love it

[iron thicket]

Every generation of xbox, I've gotten the one I didn't prefer. Xbox 360? Wanted a slim, got an elite. Xbox one? Wanted an X, got an S. Series X? Actually wanted that and got it so I'm chilling. All great consoles, just aesthetics are the reason for me preferring other ones

[valid portal]

I got my step brother to play through halo 3 with me and he enjoyed it
He's not an fps player in the slightest, I tried getting him into half life 1 and 2 one time and he didn't enjoy either

[fickle drift]

If I was trying to get someone into FPS then HL wouldn't be my go-to either ngl.

[valid portal]

Co-op campaign could be a decent place to start

[obsidian wyvern]

Maybe I am just seeing things... but is that 'Powerhouse' from Halo Reach in the background!?🤯

Twitter · Aug 27, 2024, 4:51 PM

[iron thicket]

The way my friend did it was by reach's co-op campaign

[polar sail]

co op campaigning is good bcuz then if they aren't good at fps (like my situation) then they have someone to fall back on

[obsidian wyvern]

I wouldn't ever make someone play half life to get into FPS games lol

[polar sail]

and then if they like the story, buy mcc so that you can run thru the campaigns by story

[meager linden]

So we get halo reach firefights maps?

[fickle drift]

It's like, if someone was interested in HL I'd be like 'here's Black Mesa' or 'sure but you're using Mmod'

[iron thicket]

After that, asked my mom to get me a 360 (I was 11, so I couldn't buy my own), got one with Halo 4, and played that for agessssss

[valid portal]

I never forced him into it
He did enjoy the first few chapters but he was getting lost or encounters being difficult

He only knows valve because of Portal 1 and 2, the latter being one of his favorite games

[fickle drift]

As for Halo yeah, I got into the game by playing co-op with a buddy so it'd be how I approach it as well.

[stable spruce]

yall are the goats, this is why i love the halo community @iron thicket @valid portal @polar sail

[iron thicket]

🫡

[polar sail]

🫡

[fickle drift]

I remember asking to skip the flood levels because I was scared of them.

Now I skip them because they're bad levels 😃

[polar sail]

I HATEEEEE THE FLOOD LEVELS STILL

[pulsar cobalt]

Also could the new firefight refresh mode be PVE and PVP

[valid portal]

I got into halo via hearing good things about it and jumping into it via mcc

[iron thicket]

Good lord Halo 2 anniversary is able to get its own anniversary now-

https://tenor.com/view/so-old-gif-27277116

Bruh

[polar sail]

tangentially related, how hard is infinite to get into? i wanna play w my friends but im also really awful and i dont want to be yelled at in pvp 💀

[iron thicket]

I got into it by playing reach at a friend's house in 2013

[meager linden]

I got into Halo randomly
Just watched video where guy walkthrough Infinites campaign (10 hours entirely)
So I thought It was good game
Like graphics, gameplay and units

[iron thicket]

If you don't wanna be yelled at, just mute the vc

[meager linden]

I'm bored of playing repetitive games

[valid portal]

I'd say it heavily depends on how much they play fps games and what kind of fps games they play
I'd imagine it'd be easier to have a boomer shooter person or a half life player play halo than someone who's only played modern cod

[meager linden]

So I want something new

[iron thicket]

I feel like such a Halo boomer hearing about stories like this

[valid portal]

I had halo reach on my 360 but I was never allowed to play it when I was younger and could only be played by the older brothers and sisters
And by the time I was allowed to play it, I forgot about it, so mcc was basically my first way of playing reach

[iron thicket]

Oh man

[meager linden]

So I've been playing Halo for almost 4 months
(I met it in April 2024)

[iron thicket]

I've been playing since like february 2013

[meager linden]

That's a lot

[valid portal]

I got my 360 in late 2013 for frickin splitscreen minecraft

[meager linden]

I think there are people who started playing Halo from the beginning

Maybe someone's gonna tell him or not?😂😂

[valid portal]

Do they enforce this on social type games on mcc aswell or no

[bold sparrow]

Freaking GENLOCK...
What a waste..

[iron thicket]

Yes

[bold sparrow]

It did NOT.

RWBY is basically the only profitable and interesting thing RT produced and thats coasted for over a decade on the work of a dead man

[iron thicket]

I've never watched RWBY

[bold sparrow]

Genlock had a chance to be something good but the dudes writing it lost the first bit of Mecha anime basis;
The characters are not important, the mechs are
If you do not give the fanbase the hard details and proper data, they arent going to be interested

Also, unbelievably distinct lack of Vanguard war crimes
How many war-crimes are there in the first episode of basically every Gundam series, hmmm? MULTIPLE.
How many are there in Genlock? MAYBE one, or two, total

And ones a big set up to show how "bad" the badguys are.

Im sorry but the attack on New York doesnt match Operation BRITISH guyes.

If they had, say, the Holon crew alking through a Union allied city, and finding out it had been a target for a tactical biochemical weapon because there was supposedly a Union base there, and something like 750,000 civvies had died in agony to kill a commander and his HQ team, then it would be better.

[normal owl]

Genlock? Dragon Age mentioned

[meager linden]

Good night Spartans
I'm tired of waiting for electricity, so I go to sleep peacefully I guess(maybe)

[iron thicket]

I like being completely unaffected by the 360 store shutting down due to all my games being on disc

Lmao

[meager linden]

I don't know about it till messages about shutdown

[hasty zinc]

what if you want DLC for one of those disc games but don't have it already downloaded or purchased?

[valid portal]

Or xbox live arcade exclusives that don't exist on Xbox one

[lapis ivy]

What's op champions?

[iron thicket]

Idk I managed to download Oblivion dlc yesterday with no issues

[amber mirage]

It doesn't affect people who already own stuff. if affects people who don't

[safe dawn]

question, does anyone else's discord crash and have to be reloaded when trying to click the emote button while making a thread in a thread channel?

[smoky token]

Evaboneva made a hilarious tweet about this I can't post

[safe dawn]

i was just making a thread in #1039633978841374720 and it crashed my discord several times in a row when i clicked it

[candid tusk]

For now.

[stray fox]

Is Infinite ever getting an aiming update? I feel like everyone I talk to, even Infinite players, just wish the aiming felt like older titles.

[smoky token]

How does the aiming feel now if not like older titles?

[lapis ivy]

Is aim assist we're talking about here?

[stray fox]

If I had to try to describe it, sluggish, less crisp and yeah, the reduction of aim assist/reticle drag changes it entirely

[stray fox]

Mostly, I'd say, lol

[smoky token]

Do you use a controller or keyboard and mouse?

[lapis ivy]

I thought you had a drift issue

[stray fox]

Controller

[fossil skiff]

It did feel pretty weird tbh

[stray fox]

I love Infinite, but whenever I go back to playing H3 for example the aiming on that game just feels perfect - feels like how we all remember

[obsidian wyvern]

yeah I saw lol

[smoky token]

All of us?

:p

[obsidian wyvern]

and yeah, controller def felt worse after the network update

[lapis ivy]

Speaking of controllers the steam deck doesn't act like one of those by any chance?

[fossil skiff]

I could never really find a good feel on controller in infinite. Felt just fine in 5 and mcc though.

[stray fox]

Not sure, lol. You played Halo 3, 2, or Reach?

[smoky token]

I've beat them all on legendary

[stray fox]

My thoughts exactlyyy

[stray fox]

Nice, so would you say the aiming feels different on Infinite?

[fickle drift]

Something about Infinite does feel off, but I don't think I'd be able to quantify it.

Bringing bloom back for certain weapons was a choice.

[stray fox]

So many people I've talked to on the MCC say they'd switch to Infinite already if the aiming just felt "normal", lmao

[lapis ivy]

Guess not

[fossil skiff]

Mouse felt rubbish then I did this trick XLR8 came up with and it felt better. But now on a series S it still feels fine, weirdly. (The PC was lowest of the low)

[fickle drift]

Haven't played on Steam Deck but I'd assume it runs on the idea that you're using a Steam Controller.

[stray fox]

Probably the loss of aim assist on controller, you think?

[fickle drift]

Oh we're doing the aim assist bullet mag convo

[smoky token]

dunno, haven't played Halo on controller in nearly 5 years

[fickle drift]

https://tenor.com/view/obi-wan-im-not-brave-enough-for-politics-talk-politics-not-brave-gif-19473033

[stray fox]

Maybe xD I'm new here, has this convo come up a lot before?

[fossil skiff]

Isn’t that a command or something

[valid portal]

Because of me docking my steam deck every now and then, I swap between kb&m and controller quite alot

[smoky token]

more often than any of us would like

[fossil skiff]

The horse is so dead that it now could be mistaken for noble 6

[stray fox]

Damn, I can't say I'm surprised. Whats the general verdict though?

[calm fiber]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1086433181638602915/1128829929690239076/image.png

[lapis ivy]

I assume the steam deck is pretty much like the switch lol

[stray fox]

Lmfaoooo

Seems like most people are on the same page. Ngl, I hope 343 adjusts it

[valid portal]

Sorta
Sorta not

The switch is locked down meanwhile you can do what you want with a deck, you can use whatever dock you like as long as linux drivers exist for it, my thinkpad docks work with the deck, you can run nonsteam games, emulators, etc

So basically a Linux pc in the form factor of a bigger switch

[lapis ivy]

I've heard twice about something called Asus ally I'm sure what device is it

[obsidian wyvern]

pretty much all pros agreed that after the network update aiming felt off - like you had tons of input delay

[valid portal]

I never noticed any input delay but I felt aiming was a bit off in infinite regardless of me being on kb&m or controller

[obsidian wyvern]

why am I struggling to word this sentence correctly

[fossil skiff]

Skewer on the new model 😞

[stray fox]

Ah, I see. Personally, I thought it was off since day 1, ngl. Using Halo 2 or 3 as a comparison of course

[valid portal]

I've been assuming the whole time it was the framerate because I've been playing it on Xbox one

[lapis ivy]

I haven't played on Xbox since I use my laptop a lot more than it but I use a controller since I have trouble using a mouse for gaming

[calm fiber]

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

[lapis ivy]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[tight remnant]

so many people react like that when called out

[lapis ivy]

Ever since I had trouble using the keyboard and mouse during gaming and controllers make it easy

At least

[fossil skiff]

I’ve heard of some people using a hybrid setup with controller for movement and mouse for aim…couldnt make it work personally

[obsidian wyvern]

skyfi does that

[fossil skiff]

Not the biggest fan of using a bunch of mouse buttons. Paddles would be neat though ig

[valid portal]

I've tried doing that with alot of games with either touchpads or gyroscopes
It's basically a game by game basis whether or not it works, and the quality of the gyroscope

Just cause 3, it works like a dream
Astroneer, it technically works but it doesn't control the best
Halo mcc, doesn't work because it doesn't like receiving inputs from keyboard&mouse and controller at the same exact time without eating button presses

[fossil skiff]

Pretty sure it locks you to one input only in multiplayer MCC, been a while since I booted it up though

[valid portal]

Yeah it does
Although I was testing in singleplayer campaign so I wasn't dealing with that limitation

[wise pecan]

Hey

[graceful inlet]

Good night.

[acoustic pewter]

halo 7 when?

[iron thicket]

Probably 2030 lmao

Lol that long of a wait for halo 7? Meantime updates for infinite continue

[elfin glacier]

tomorrow

[proven whale]

Random question. Which branch of the military of the UNSC would you join if you had to?

1. Army
2. Navy
3. Marines
4. Air Force

[steady jolt]

Air Force, I'd love to fly

[proven whale]

Badass!

[meager linden]

1. Army, I love ground operations

[proven whale]

Air Force would be dope. I wonder how the Navy would be? Be kinda cool to be in space

[proven whale]

Hell yea. Get to fight the covenant up close and personal.

[floral pollen]

honestly, idk lol
I do have a Spartan OC who's also a Heavy Frigate pilot, so I'd prolly go with that
That or Air Force I think

[proven whale]

Phew. You and a stckr are far braver then me. Getting into a battle in the air seems terrifying.

[floral pollen]

fair lol
if I was Air Force, it'd prolly be a heavy carrier ship, not so much like a Hornet or Wasp or anything

[meager linden]

Since ground operations require air support, I think all units are connected to each other

[proven whale]

Indeed. They compliment each other in a variety of ways.

[meager linden]

Ok, see you all tomorrow

I have a feeling that Navy and Airforce would overlap a lot due to the navy being in charge of the larger ships

[cedar turret]

The navy is responsible for choreography

[bold sail]

I'd go air force.

So the navy do dance moves ?

[shadow lynx]

hows everyone satisfying that halo thirst? iv been wanting to play halo for ages but iv completed mcc too many times and same with halo wars 1 and 2 and halo infinite, the only game that i have not played in a while is halo 5 due to lack of pc port which is extremely sad and i hope halo 5 gets a pc port very soon

[valid portal]

Tried out halo infinite multiplayer on the deck
Ima stick to the xbox one for halo infinite because my goodness the gpu was maxed out the whole time even when set to a framerate limit of 30

[near tree]

Do you like multiplayer? That's pretty fun
But if you're looking for campaign s, idk
You may have to turn to another shooter
Or just play firefight or Spartan ops

[fossil skiff]

Spartan ops was a lot of fun (except when doing legendary solo)

[shadow lynx]

i just found that halo 5 has more replayability than halo infinite, the halo 5 req stuff was bs and the campaign was mid but the multiplayer was so fun

[valid portal]

People hating on either halo 4 or 5 seems to depend on whether they care about the campaign or the multiplayer
For the campaign folks, halo 5 looks like the worst one
For the multiplayer folks, halo 4 looks like the worst one
I haven't played either yet, it was just an observation that I took note of

[obsidian wyvern]

I think CE is the worst for both campaign and multiplayer

Oh good lord your gonna cause a nuke to go off with a message like that

[soft mango]

[fickle drift]

This is what your brain looks like post AotCR abuse

[valid portal]

I'm doubting halo 5 has keyboard control but halo mcc and halo infinite on Xbox have keyboard and mouse controls

[fossil skiff]

There’s a PC port for forge supporting it iirc

[soft mango]

nice

[obsidian wyvern]

I've always disliked CE but it's been worse for me after having to go through AotCR several times recently

[shadow lynx]

yeah i was just on it, i felt good, just want all the rest ahha

[valid portal]

CE multiplayer I found quite fun when playing in a free for all 3 player slayer

[fickle drift]

Just wait till you try Truth and Reconciliation on laso ohoho boy

[fossil skiff]

“Interesting. The weather patterns here seem natural and not artificial.”

[fickle drift]

[obsidian wyvern]

CE spawns are just stupid

I did get a really really bad halo 3 spawn today though. probably the worst spawn I've ever seen in a halo game

[valid portal]

Ce's multiplayer spawns don't care if your right next to an enemy when you respawn

[fossil skiff]

watching some of ogre2’s gameplay from that is nuts

[obsidian wyvern]

we were getting destroyed this match and then got a spawn like this to help

[shadow lynx]

what is coming for halo, is there anything in the works from any studios ??

[fossil skiff]

They said there are projects being worked on. Probably nothing major for years if I had to guess.

[valid portal]

I'd wonder what id software would do with halo if they were allowed to work on it

[bleak shoal]

Probably will take me a long time. When quarantine hit me in 2020. I've played the absolute heck out of MCC to the point where I got bored

[short notch]

We need a ranking system for halo infinite because there’s too many new player in the ranked lobbies and it’s just super annoying and then there’s like these crazy good people and it’s just like you can’t even exist without them killing yoy like it’s a skill issue on my part but like bruh

[bleak shoal]

I can't ever go back to MCC because fo that now lol

I just need a new Halo game that can keep me interested

[short notch]

lol

Like it’s really annoying and I’m a rage monster so my controller is super lucky it’s not broke. lol

[bleak shoal]

I completed all the Legendary runs for the other Halo campaigns and I saved CE for last cuz I heard it was a fair and actual challenging mode

2 and Reach broke me. Happy to say CE did live up to the expectations. Never before have I played so tactically. Ce legendary was rly fun 😁

[obsidian wyvern]

i found reach easier than 3 and 3odst lol

[stoic field]

Happy to play halo 3

Yippee 😁

[obsidian wyvern]

3 i actually struggled with a bit. reach's hardest part was the sabre section

[stoic field]

I played reach and it was normal until the hunters or the green giants

I just skip them

[obsidian wyvern]

jump behind them and shoot them where there isnt armour

[cedar turret]

https://tenor.com/view/green-giant-field-jgg-gif-11821658

[stoic field]

It isn't that easy

[cedar turret]

Yes it is

[obsidian wyvern]

it is lol, other than infinite where they kinda stopped that

[stoic field]

Tbh Infinite looks good

Ppl hate it but the graphics make it easier to forget the bad specs

[neon axle]

halo 5 looked better and the explosion effects look terrible

[iron thicket]

For some reason 3 is also the only game where serial betrayers are

[iron thicket]

I think 5 has the worst campaign and it's a toss up between 4 and reach for the worst multiplayer

[bleak shoal]

Explosions in general are horrible in Infinite

[void magnet]

It looks fine but it’s not good enough to require the specs that it does imo

Might be another contributor to its low Steam pop 👀

[tranquil loom]

aint that game dead?

can we send GIFs?

[iron thicket]

MCC? No?

💀

[dry frigate]

[pliant hatch]

CE spawns actually require map knowledge and awareness which is a skill. Mainly for 2's which it was meant for, but 4's and higher get messy.

[fickle drift]

damn why

[fickle drift]

mcc or infinite i play both mostly infinite

[fickle drift]

no infinite is very full lol

[static fjord]

I mean in xbox

[ocean herald]

Yea, it’s free on Xbox and pc

[static fjord]

I want to buy it, vut some friends tell me that halo infinite you need gamepass, but others say that is free so in really confused at this moment

[iron thicket]

Infinite multiplayer is free, Campaign is paid

[ocean herald]

Oh I see. The game is on game pass, meaning you’d get campaign as well as multiplayer.

If you don’t want game pass, you can just download the multiplayer

If you got game pass you’d get more then just infinite, it has several other games. If all you’re wanting is the multiplayer though, you don’t need it

[cedar turret]

several is doing a bit of work there.

Probably not till maybe 2027?

When was infinite?

[silk ocean]

I am so bad at money

[meager linden]

Good morning Spartans

[novel tangle]

halo got so dry i started playing valorant 💀

[hot star]

Infinite released in 2021

[willow moth]

Thx
So my guess for the next halo may be 2027 or 2030

Or maybe less idk for sure but I haven’t heard anything new on it and givin the new halo needs to be better imo then the last something like cut content from halo 2 with the flood size stuff I mean it may take longer also imo open world wasn’t the best

[lapis ivy]

Ok my question is why that long?

[willow moth]

Well I’m thinking maybe they will use another engine or maybe make a bigger map bigger story longer gameplay new stuff in general so will take longer that and just figuring out what to do and how it move forward maybe it’s been a min since I’ve played infinite tho so maybe once I start playing it I could give more of an answer to this but I think it’s also just 343 taking their time maybe not wanting to stuff up again or make another halo 5 (🤢) and new art and many other things

Like maybe business advertising an that maybe

[lapis ivy]

Well in that case halo infinite in the meantime updates will keep rolling in forge and multiplayer hopefully

[willow moth]

Well last I heard the multiplayer wasn’t doing well and they need to drop what they have done with it and go back to what it was like in the og days last time I tired to play it there was no fun then again that’s PvP games in general now
Fun? What’s that all I know is being a sweat

[hearty flame]

Make it 2031 so they can say they, "stuck to their 10-year plan 🤣"

[lapis ivy]

Think of years going fast and by the time you realize it's already 2031😂

They will ditch it and make it a 20 year plan and then the next halo will be a destiny look alike

just completed halo reach on heroic

peak

[willow moth]

Same

I’m done playing in heroic going to play 4 on normal

Cos it’s so unfair sometimes on heroic like why is it so hard I want more or a challenge but not to hide every 15 seconds

[fickle drift]

same.

it's just not fun. it shouldn't be such a grind

[willow moth]

Agreed sometimes on normal it feels like easy

[willow moth]

Then on heroic it’s so hard like where’s the middle? Maybe I’m just bad 🤷‍♂️ infinite was a pain on heroic

[fickle drift]

i mean i can confidently say that i just have a skill issue lol

[willow moth]

😂 then I’m with you to

[willow moth]

What’s your lest favourite halo?

Ofc mine is 5

[fickle drift]

i've never actually played 5 or infinite, but i have heard 5 had good multiplayer

out of the ones on mcc i'd say 4

[willow moth]

Yea the pvp was fun at its time and it was semi pve to had bosses in it but 5 is the worst by far look up the fight in it with chief vs a IV it’s so goofy

[meager linden]

Go try reach on legendary

[fickle drift]

oh god no

[willow moth]

Halo 2 laso

[fickle drift]

next gonna beat CE in normal tho

[willow moth]

Oh I can I dm you @fickle drift you should know about the level Cortana what it was going to be

[fickle drift]

yeah go ahead

[fickle drift]

like the h3 level?

[willow moth]

Yep

[meager linden]

Sad but Halo 2 and Reach are only games that not have secret ending, like CE, 3, 4 and Infinite

[willow moth]

3 an 4 do?

And infinite?

[meager linden]

Yep
They have secret ending when finishing them on legendary

[meager linden]

Infinite too

[willow moth]

Need to look up then ik ce has Johnson and the elite witch is funny

[safe dawn]

What was 4's ending?

[meager linden]

For few sec you can see Master Chief's blue eyes, when he take off his helmet

[willow moth]

Oh yea tho you don’t see his eyes just the socket it’s black

[safe dawn]

You see his eyes, its just dark af

[willow moth]

Cos he has his eyes shut and he is pale cos he never takes his armour off

[safe dawn]

His eyes open, but yeah all spartans have pale skin

[willow moth]

Not all lock doesn’t

[bleak shoal]

I think he or she means 2s

[willow moth]

Idk his name

LOL

[willow moth]

The new halo game is going to be another remake of the og halos with 343 adding in cut content by 2026

[hasty zinc]

yoooo

[hasty zinc]

source?

[analog knot]

Source: I made it up

[willow moth]

Let me find the vid

[analog knot]

Unless its an official announcement from 343 (its not going to be) then it's speculation / guessing.

[hasty zinc]

bets on it being a Mint Blitz video?

[willow moth]

https://youtu.be/uuW7HEsWVwM?si=THJuGPbfQEeg9Wi5
This is another vid the og I saw was a short

[hasty zinc]

dang, lost that bet

[willow moth]

When people say halo 4 and 5 are good

[analog knot]

No idea who that is, but its not 343 😄

[hasty zinc]

Halo 4 and 5 are good

[willow moth]

Watch the vid 🤷‍♂️ don’t just watch 5 seconds and go it’s false

[hasty zinc]

it's just speculation, you don't even have to watch the video to know that

[analog knot]

🤣

[hasty zinc]

unless the video contains an interview with a 343 employee who confirms

which I highly doubt

[analog knot]

If the next Halo games direction was known it would be everywhere.

[willow moth]

It’s a leak why would 343 say anything when it’s leaked I mean I just saw it on a short go google it

[analog knot]

Have you ever heard of clickbait

[willow moth]

You ever heard of googling it?

[hasty zinc]

the problem is you're presenting it as fact, when that is just not the case right now

nothing has been confirmed

it's all rumors/speculation

[analog knot]

Im going to make a YouTube video so I can present it as fact

[willow moth]

All I said was the next halo game is that I didn’t say it is a fact

[hasty zinc]

that is a statement presenting it as fact

[analog knot]

The next Halo game actually has us flying on Spyro's back

[willow moth]

The next ≠ fact

[hasty zinc]

...

[analog knot]

Going to be sick, imagine headbutting a grunt on Spyro

[willow moth]

But what ever you want to believe go for it

[meager linden]

Where's my popcorn?
So interesting

[analog knot]

Shocker, they left

So anyway I think the Halo/Spyro crossover has potential

[hasty zinc]

I'm not going crazy right? Saying that the next halo game WILL be what they said is presenting it as fact right?

[analog knot]

CLEARLY you didnt watch the video smh

[muted rose]

Is going is really just another way to say will

[wild sleet]

Man based his fact on a Cereal box prize?

[analog knot]

Google it next time

[lapis ivy]

Halo Spyro crossover? Nah

[analog knot]

https://i.imgur.com/4NncR0C.png

[muted rose]

Why not?

[analog knot]

Thanks Google!

[lapis ivy]

Just seems impossible since their companies are different one 343 and Activision

[fickle drift]

Both of whom are now owned by Microsoft, no?

[muted rose]

Hey man I just want Master Chief to ride dragons

[fickle drift]

Doomguy beat him to it.

[lapis ivy]

Lol

[analog knot]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Roy-d1uV_rU

omg it appears microsoft is already working on it 😂

[lapis ivy]

I mean Spyro is a legendary character and I been thinking about a legend of Spyro remake/remaster but it was sierra that used to make the game

[analog knot]

hey after they left the server they DM'd me a MB video so you were still right https://i.imgur.com/A6AYUXQ.png

[lapis ivy]

You can not always believe what you see on the Internet starting with anything having to do with mint blitz

[frosty siren]

Since it's on the internet it's official 💀

[lapis ivy]

How come they don't add these FX to forge lol

[gilded snow]

hey can anyone speedrun a campaign mission with me rn?

I need to do it for an mcc challenge

[ocean herald]

and rea..

[molten pelican]

yeah it would have to begin with "I think the next..."

a fact would be as such: The next halo game will be a mockumentary about grunts working for a mid-tier paper company in scranton, Balaho

[hasty zinc]

alright, let's not get too out of control here

[fossil skiff]

No no, I think he means to continue your original statement with ,”and really, REALLY, underrated”

[tough escarp]

halo 4 (kind of) slaps

i think the problem is that it wasn't focused on the war with the covenant anymore

[hasty zinc]

that makes more sense

[molten pelican]

secretly its his favorite of the franchise but he doesnt want to upset rev because he looks up to him

[amber mirage]

If by problem you mean strength, then I agree

[obsidian wyvern]

every time I open this chat and see spork I see rev mentioned

[valid portal]

One thing I noticed with Halo 4 is that it doesn't answer why elites and other covenant units are attacking us again

[tough escarp]

i would say strength if they had followed up with a stronger story

[tough escarp]

apparently it's explained in halo 5 which i haven't played, but they mentioned in halo 4 that these new covenant were just fanatical zealots and that's about it

[valid portal]

o

[meager linden]

It's kind of a new covenant variant, but from Jul` Mdama

[amber mirage]

Followed up meaning what comes after Halo 4 or Halo 4 itself?

If the former, I don't think that makes sense

[tough escarp]

followed up, halo 5 could've been a really interesting look on what cortana's absence had done to chief

[amber mirage]

I disagree then. Judging something based on its sequel, which you also say haven't played doesn't make sense. You judge something on its own merits and faults.

[tough escarp]

pretty much, yeah

[normal owl]

It has been such a pleasure to be totally immersed in a world that's head-to-toe Star Wars. 🥹

[trim saddle]

Which is why I stand firm on my stance that every halo is fun in their own way.

[trim saddle]

i want to experience this but i cant drop $ on a game currently 😦

[normal owl]

Are you a PC or Xbox gamer? Seeing some price differences between the two platforms.

[trim saddle]

Xbox

Hm now that 3-day early access has begun, looks like prices are back towards pretty much retail. Well one good thing is that Ubisoft single-player games notoriously drop in price over time much faster than other big titles. This will definitely $40-50 by the holidays, esp as AC Shadows comes out in mid-November to eat its open-world single-player lunch.

[trim saddle]

ill put that on the list for santa then. hes usually nice since im "on his list"

[normal owl]

You're a cool guy, not a coal guy.

[high cipher]

I have a question recently my duo and I completed halo CE on laso with no difficulties besides the obvious laso difficulty…we have bow started our journey into halo 2. Everything has gone smooth until last night after finishing the arbiter my duo checks his laso playlist progress and it says 4/15 while mine is at 6/15. And yes we both watched the first two mission cutscenes and got credit for those so this is not the issue. The issue seems to be that the game did not give him progress for outskirts and now the arbirter however it did give him credit on the playlist for beating metropolis. Now since we are in the laso playlist unfortunately we cant go back and play outskirts because it gave him credit for metropolis. Given these circumstances will he get the achievement if we continue my playlist? Or is there a chance it did give him credit for those missions and its a visual glitch? Any help or advice would be appreciated. Restarting and doing cairo all over does not sound enjoyable😅

[trim saddle]

my soap has activated coal, so im kinda coal too.

[ocean herald]

if you wanted a "work around" i think you can sign-up for ubisoft premium for like $18/month and play the game then just cancel the membership lol

[normal owl]

This is true for if you anticipate ultimately purchasing the game for (Future Sale Price + Cost of Ubi+ Premium) < Today's Full Price, plus the intangible benefit being able to participate in release-week hype.

[steady jolt]

@inland hollow we don't allow self promotion like that here

[hallow birch]

Popping in to voice excitement over just now realizing that you can see Powerhouse in the Champions promo

[trim saddle]

Yes its a reach style FF refresh that comes with this 20 tier operation

[hallow birch]

Always down for more firefight

[trim saddle]

im hoping for some goofy FF modes to come with it all

like inf ammo fiesta, or hammer/swords, or fully upgraded equipment.

[hallow birch]

I'm hoping there's a nice non-KOTH mode, but I'll take whatever comes with a FF update.

[tight remnant]

fully upgraded equipment would require forge script as its not part of the options. Doable but different route

[trim saddle]

i wanna grapple pound some grunts in FF, that would be very entertaining

[tight remnant]

I do wish we could have multiple equipment on at the same time and all

also campaign, repulsor and quantum translocator

[hallow birch]

That would be kinda nuts to have an option to have all of them at once

The plays would be insane

[fossil skiff]

Super thrust repulse to send eacharum flying off the map so hard that it crashes the game

[valid portal]

I'm just hoping for any firefight that isn't koth because of how short those matches last

[ocean herald]

Yeah I was just meaning if you wanted to play asap and not dish out full price

Do you have a score you’d give the game yet or still taking it all in?

[normal owl]

No I was agreeing with you that it would make sense depending on the player. I actually took your suggestion and implemented it, so I appreciate that idea!

[fickle drift]

hows it going yall

[normal owl]

Still very much taking it all in. But I'd say it is a very personal/subjective 10/10 as a player experience because I love Star Wars > there has never been an open-world Star Wars game before > this is the first time I've been able to walk around inside of a living world where every pixel and sound is Star Wars. It's just incredible to experience.

[meager linden]

Good
Just above go to bed to sleep

[ocean herald]

I’m so tempted to jump in now but I have so many games I’m trying to get through 😅

Would you rate it higher than the fallen order games?

[warm heart]

Anyone wanna do my math homework? ||jk||

[normal owl]

I wouldn't want to mistakenly sway you one way or the other with a comparison because it's a completely different DNA: Jedi Fallen Order/Survivor are like going to a quality restaurant and digging into a wonderful one-night dinner; Star Wars Outlaws is like living temporarily on a Disney cruise where everything is built in Star Wars detail all around you to live and play in.

If you can wait to experience it, Ubisoft single-player games historically drop in price must faster than other AAA games, so by next year after Expansion #2 has already released, I'm guessing the Gold Edition (game + season pass) will be much cheaper than full price.

[wise pecan]

[obsidian wyvern]

idk why but I can see this going badly

[normal owl]

This is the only relevant setting I'm seeing, unless I'm missing something?

[obsidian wyvern]

that looks like it's on your phone right

[normal owl]

Yes

[obsidian wyvern]

says it's a desktop feature

[arctic vale]

apple

[obsidian wyvern]

idk I'm on my phone rn too so I can't check

[normal owl]

I was hoping that restricting data output would give nothing for that feature to display, but I'll have to check on desktop.

No spamming @arctic vale

[meager linden]

Good night Spartans

[tight remnant]

ever tried any of the star wars MMOs?

[normal owl]

Sadly no, just hours of gameplay video to peek in on something I can't play like a sad window shopper lol. But I have been hoping a lot that the KOTOR remake is not dead. Would be one of my most anticipated remakes ever.

[obsidian wyvern]

sat here at the end of the linkin park 100 hour countdown and after it stopped, it started counting upwards lol. got trolled

[forest lagoon]

The amount of hours I put into that game

[trim saddle]

Oh nifty the power is out at home.

so it looks like i cant download outlaws yet lol

NOOO what in the freaking coincidental heck!

[void wharf]

Why are my friends never here

[normal owl]

Oh dude then I think you'll really enjoy the "Star Wars cruise" of Outlaws. I do think we'll see price reductions start within a month as they try to drum up a second wave of interest with Expansion #1 w/ Lando drop later in Fall 2024.

[normal owl]

Please stop this line of content. You bring this topic up repeatedly and it is not constructive to the community interaction here

[steady jolt]

Hasn't been detailed by 343, as far as I know, but they pulled the map from competitive play until it's fixed

Wait, you never played it?

[normal owl]

I've never had any PC other than a work laptop, so I've been a window shopper for lots of good-looking PC games.

[amber mirage]

KOTOR or SWTOR?

[forest lagoon]

He mentioned KotOR up above but that's a good question

Because the Xbox disc for KotOR is backwards compatible

[amber mirage]

Yeah. Also digitally available too

But SWTOR is the PC only MMO

[forest lagoon]

I tried to get into SWTOR just for the story but all the MMO grindy bits eventually made me give it up

[amber mirage]

I don't remember why I stopped

Didn't make it very far in though

I was enjoying it though
