[hexed beacon]

Very excited for Edge of Dawn!!

[hexed beacon]

Plus! Kelly Gay is penning a Master Chief story so I am ALL IN FOR THAT

[hybrid plover]

[glass hemlock]

Yeah ! I'm so ready for new peak MC iconic lines getting added to the list haha

[hexed beacon]

Hell yeah!!! Heck, I’m just happy to see more of Chief’s adventures on Zeta Halo

[quaint kettle]

Im going to need… two weapons! Duel welding returns! 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥

[hexed beacon]

WAIT WHAAAAA? AFTER SO LONG?!

[quaint kettle]

Im joking sorry

[jade gust]

Give him two M20 SMGs and I'll be buying this one day one

[hexed beacon]

Damn….

Ya got me 😂

[jade gust]

For the record, I fully intend to buy this new book day one

I have stuff I need to sort out first

[fickle drift]

I want to do more reading, probably going to get the Heir to the Empire trilogy next month.

[glad aspen]

i don't know if someone already posted this

The Forge Falcons (@TheForgeFalcons)

Our feelings regarding Halo & Forge.

Seen some discussion on this recently, so, starting with the obvious, there's no reason forgers should still be getting no meaningful compensation.

None of us ever started making things in the hopes we'd get compensated and have never

X · Jun 19, 2025, 6:03 PM

too much text so be aware

[jade gust]

I have so many books to read... Don Quixote, Dracula, Frankenstein (I started but got distracted by the horrorsTM), Halo Last Light and the first three issues of Dandadan

[fickle drift]

Oh no

[trim saddle]

You're still in that -persons- server? I'm surprised there's still anyone in there.

[quaint kettle]

10k people

[normal owl]

One of life's simple beauties: a plate of hot fresh-out-the-fryer curly fries

[trim saddle]

9k people waiting for a giveaway and maybe 12 active talkers, sure.

[quaint kettle]

We dont do giveaways anymore

[trim saddle]

Lmao yeah because the 5 people that funded it left

[jade gust]

Oh it's been too long since I've had curly fries... I should get some next time I have take-out (Since I didn't get any with my birthday meal today)

[trim saddle]

Oooo those look tastyyyyy

I might need to hit up a coney place because their fries are always good.

[quaint kettle]

Lmao

We do contest now

Lol

[hexed geyser]

i hope that Halo: edge of dawn gets un-novelized into campaign dlc

[quaint kettle]

Wall of text incoming

[quaint kettle]

Most important part of the article

“Akin in many ways to Halo: First Strike, this story serves as a glimpse into the aftermath of its preceding events, the novel dealing with the immediate fallout of what took place in Halo Infinite's campaign while embarking on its own new, self-contained adventure.

RECOMMENDED REVISITING

Edge of Dawn will ostensibly serve as a standalone story that any reader can jump into, whether this is your first Halo novel or if you’ve been following along for years.”

[steady jolt]

Would be cool, but current SAG-AFTRA strikes impact this possibility

[jade gust]

I thought they came to an arrangement the other day?

[steady jolt]

Last I heard, while it was sounding promising nothing had been finalized

[jade gust]

It's not that SAG-AFTRA don't want them to work, it's that they want them to be treated fairly by the people the voice actors work for

[hexed geyser]

i gotta beat infinite in time for that book

[quaint kettle]

But they do recommend playing infinite and reading rubicon protocol

[steady jolt]

[quaint kettle]

Very great book

[steady jolt]

So all going well, it could be over soon. If it doesn't, strikes will likely still be on for the foreseeable future

[waxen rose]

The new halo game will feature a dance battle mechanic
Trust me y'all

Womp Womp
Everyone else will enjoy it and you'll be the one person who won't /j

[jade gust]

That's not a dance battle mechanic, that's just emoting

[waxen rose]

Master Chief dance battles one of the Endless

He doesn't emote
He break dances

[robust rain]

Howdy

[jade gust]

Is he doing it to Breaking the Covenant from the H2A soundtrack?

[waxen rose]

Maybe… I don't know all the details on halo 8

We can only hope

[quaint kettle]

Ah, a fellow objective enjoyer

[lavish hamlet]

im still celebrating the guy who got the raise

Halo: Edge of Dawn cover was just revealed! The novel deals with the immediate fallout of what took place in Halo Infinite's campaign while embarking on its own new, self-contained adventure. Releasing this December. #Halo

[waxen rose]

so many things in the halo franchise that have the word ‘dawn’ in it
Coincidence? I think not
That's just my game theory

[floral pollen]

welp
just hit Onyx Major finally
only like 4 more ranks to go until Hero :3

[normal owl]

Wow, local bars pour with a heavy hand. Ordered a single Macallan 12 and this is what she poured

[molten pelican]

enjoy lol

[fading fossil]

Very nice

[rare cedar]

Oooooooh someone likes youuuuuuu

[drowsy coyote]

You know what

I’ll read edge of dawn I actually wanna know what happens after infinites campaign

Please let Locke show up

[candid solar]

"Wow! A name I know! Wow! A name I know! Wow! A name I know!"

[waxen rose]

Halo name gambling: choose between suffix ‘Dawn’ prefix ‘Dawn’ or just Dawn

[candid solar]

This time Chief fights brute triplets named Lucerious, Ruforious, and Origamus; And one of the brothers, with notable yellow hair, has Locke's shin plate on his right shoulder.

Isn't that right @elfin glacier

[drowsy coyote]

And the book ends with Atriox cliffhanger again

[candid solar]

He also fights an old brute with a walker named Bashurum on his way to fight Atriox, with his helpful human pilot companion Dudehammer.

[waxen rose]

Where's the electric wheelchair brute that you gotta take down bc hes the head of the operation

[candid solar]

The penultimate villain of the book is named the fighthaver, a ruthless ancient alien unleashed on Zeta Halo.

[candid solar]

Nono, that's the next book, Shadow of Dawn.

[waxen rose]

Ugh I should've known, my bad

[drowsy coyote]

He was just a soldier

[candid solar]

Actually, he was just a sailor, like me.

[waxen rose]

#navyforthewin

[elfin glacier]

yes i heard it from a trusted source

[candid solar]

In Shadow of Dawn, it will be 'just a marine, like me', and finally in Say My Dawn, the fourth book of the Rubicon Protocol trilogy, it will be 'just an airman, like me'.

[waxen rose]

Rubicon Dawn trilogy

[drowsy coyote]

Wowow Aegis a full on mod now

I remember when he was just like dex

[elfin glacier]

he was just a gendarmie, like me

[drowsy coyote]

The Engineer thingy at the end of ODST is so cute
I hope they turn them into a marketable plushie

[elfin glacier]

i hope they turn @candid solar into a marketable plushie

[candid solar]

The marketable Trenchbird plushie, totally not filled with C4

[spare owl]

NotPipi makes really good Halo animations. If youve never seen his work I highly suggest you check it out on Youtube.

[candid solar]

Marketable bird

Gets stronger with every scalp and resale

Okay but counterpoint, if NotPipi is so good, why isn't there a NotPipi 2

[lavish hamlet]

red vs blue the best and only halo animator imo

[spare owl]

Im not understanding what this means

[lavish hamlet]

tex fighting the reds and blues is the best halo scene ever

[frail bramble]

i know that nobody for some reason wants a Halo 3 remaster but no matter how many years pass or how many ppl deny the idea, I am convinced that it would be Halo Studios’ best project. I would truly love to see HS’s take on H3, i wouldn’t want a 1:1 remaster it would actually be nice to see some sort of twist. If you don’t agree then i guess our love for halo is different..

i have this hunch that H3 remaster will be peak competitive arena. In my head I see everyone on kick/twitch stream halo 3 ranked mode. and believe it or not it’s thanks to Halo Studios. their twist is what made it pop off.

[burnt olive]

I feel like I stepped into late 2000s early 2010s reading that lol

Good evening !!

[safe dawn]

good soon-to-be morning chat

[shell hull]

For me it is near midnight lol

[safe dawn]

it's just past midnight for me lol

00:11

[shell hull]

Ooh

For me it is 10:12 lol

[floral pollen]

Yea It's also just past midnight for me here lol

[shell hull]

Icc

Lowkey I have not played halo in a bit but might rn if my younger brother doesn't say no

[floral pollen]

I was playing some earlier
I'm slowly grinding for max rank in Infinite

[shell hull]

Gotcha, I have not played Infinite if I'm being honest, for all my life I've only been playing MCC, is it fun??

[safe dawn]

yes

[floral pollen]

Imo yes

[safe dawn]

tbh I'd recommend doubles or firefight as a starter mode to help you get a feel for the game, then moving to something like fiesta to help you get in-match experience with most of the weapons you'll come across and pick up

[floral pollen]

FF is good to start with imo

There's also Fiesta FF modes

[safe dawn]

^

tbh, if you have prior experience, just set your controls up to the way you have them in halo 4 in MCC (Halo 4 bc it's arguably the closest to infinite's movement layout) and it should make the learning curve a lot less steep in terms of getting used to the movement

[floral pollen]

Someday I'll finally hit max rank
I think i can do it in about a month or so

[safe dawn]

ngl, realizing that I'm not even at the halfway point yet, I may not make max rank for awhile lol

I like, JUST hit diamond corporal last week

I'm maybe like 4/10ths of the way there

[floral pollen]

Onyx Lance Corporal 3 is about halfway

I just hit Onyx Major earlier

[safe dawn]

ye, and I'm a full color rank below that, so maybe 3 or 4/10ths of the way there

[floral pollen]

Yea

I'd do the math but I'm too lazy rn ngl

[safe dawn]

it's 00:34, I am not doing math at this time lol

[floral pollen]

Yeaa same tbh

[safe dawn]

like, the last time I tried to do complex math at this time, I ended up being off by like 18 days

[floral pollen]

I think there is a Halopedia page that gives %s of what a rank is out of Hero
But I also can't be bothered to math from that rn

[safe dawn]

yeahhh

anyways i need to go to bed bc I actually have to get up at a certain time tomorrow

i'ma hop off of discord now, gn chat o7

Hi panda

I’ve only watched all the movies so far, haven’t read the books. They’re about as big as a Stephen King novel

Does this server have a place where Insiders hang out or is there an insider server?

[hasty zinc]

what kind of insiders?

[jade pumice]

Halo Insider. I been one for a really long time now but just recently started using my discord and joining this server.

[hasty zinc]

not really a specific area for that, no current insider program running right now (well not any public ones anyway)

[obsidian wyvern]

as in the insider program that everyone signed up for, for like the infinite flights?

[jade pumice]

Idk but I been one for like 10 years now lol

[obsidian wyvern]

gonna guess yes then lol

The Gundam Hathaway OST is so good

Most likely to make sure it worked as intended before the public release of MCC Reach

[lavish hamlet]

yahtzee my man

you unlocked a memory

[hasty zinc]

yeah that's totally why

[lavish hamlet]

now I have to know what about reach do you want to forget

besides master chief not being included

[hasty zinc]

https://tenor.com/7bu6.gif

[pliant hatch]

jun didn't die so I guess I'll look forward to immortality.

[hasty zinc]

he did die though

I have footage

[lavish hamlet]

yea but with that logic then Noble 6 survived too

[lavish hamlet]

LOL

[hasty zinc]

nah, his death was confirmed. Jun confirmed alive

[lavish hamlet]

I mean is it because of his helmet on the floor at the end? that could just be a cliffhanger imo

[hasty zinc]

no HS and bungie confirmed several times he is dead

[lavish hamlet]

ah f nevermind then.. rip noble 6 smh

well at least chief is alive

..or is he

[pliant hatch]

I wonder if bungie would've changed his death scene if they knew it would cause so much controversy.

[fickle drift]

You could’ve shown him being disintegrated into atoms and people would’ve still theorised he lived

[hasty zinc]

yeah like full view of him being stabbed repeatedly and then a closeup on his eyes as the life drains from them

[lavish hamlet]

they shouldve let noble 6 live and eventually turn him into Spartan Locke that wouldve been S-tier lore but what do I know

[pliant hatch]

hmm, maybe. I mean, we have a few people on here saying jorge went to another dimension, lol.

[fickle drift]

Yeah just, negate every female Noble 6 playthrough (they did that anyway)

[lavish hamlet]

did not think that one through...

[jade gust]

Also making Locke Noble 6 would've just been a terrible idea anyway, regardless of the gender someone chose to play as in Reach

[fickle drift]

I just, don’t think Six should have extended lore to them.

Their major, and I’d say only value is tied to the meta-narrative of Reach and anything that overwrites that experience is a negative imo.

And this is me already giving Reach too much credit.

[lavish hamlet]

isnt reach on the same timeline as every other halo?

[jade gust]

They just have a slight bit more character than Rookie had in ODST, given Six actually spoke and showed some sense of personality

[jade gust]

Yes but that's not what the issue with Six being expanded upon is

[fickle drift]

Yes, but the value of Six is as a vessel for the ‘you enabled Halo’ story Bungie had going on since it was their last Halo game.

The whole ‘Six is literally You’ aspect

Six as a character isn’t honoured in the ending, you as the player are.

[lavish hamlet]

dam, that hit deep.

so what was the message? that no matter how hard we fight for something we will fail? that's not nice, that's not nice of Bungie at all

[jade gust]

That wasn't the message at all

[lavish hamlet]

was the message sacrifice?

[jade gust]

Which has me wondering what you got from Rogue One, considering the fact that film has a similar ending to Reach

[lavish hamlet]

ngl, the only Star Wars-esque film I have watched is Spaceballs

wait a second, I think i did see rogue one in theaters but that was so long ago

holy memory unlocked

[fickle drift]

Because of your sacrifice, (read: time, money, dedication to the franchise), they were able to find (create) Halo, and achieve victory (a massively successful franchise).

[fickle frigate]

hi

[lavish hamlet]

when you put it that way it actually sounds beautiful.

I'm proud to be a spartan

[lavish hamlet]

hello, welcome to the Halo server, enjoy your stay!

[shell hull]

Boom

[lavish hamlet]

Message for Halo Studios: Please give us an armor we can unlock by collecting all the hidden objects in the campaign maps like in Halo 3, I vividly remember everyone on that hunt lol, so much fun.

For the next Halo game.

Another idea: In addition to the previous idea, since there WILL be people on YouTube and TiKTok uploading videos on the locations of the hidden objects, I have a way to counter that: Multiple Spawn locations. I'd say around 3 locations that are randomized every time you start the mission.

[waxen rose]

Me and my genderfluid six headcannon
Locke isnt cool enough for that

[jade gust]

Multiple locations won't "Counter that"

[worldly venture]

At all

[lavish hamlet]

it will partly counter it. It will force the player to go to the next location if the one they were initially set on is not the correct path.

It's mainly just to combat how quick you can find all the objects and exploring parts of the map is a bonus.

[jade gust]

I'd rather they not artificially force players to explore like that

[worldly venture]

That isn't even a counter

You just move on to the next place 💔

[lavish hamlet]

I mean how tiny do you think the maps will be? You seem to be underestimating Halo Studios

In my head they will be as massive as destiny maps.

[waxen rose]

enjoy your 70$ game

[lavish hamlet]

I will be getting the best edition as I do with every Halo title so I'd say I will enjoy my $150 game.

[waxen rose]

dont @ me but yeah

[lavish hamlet]

oh for sure

[worldly venture]

I dont think I want anything to be like destiny

Especially not now 😭😭

[worldly sedge]

Make more nice ambient maps

[jade gust]

Ok, those aren't that big. They're just multiple connecting areas. Which again, doesn't require your bad idea for hiding cosmetics

[worldly sedge]

The soothest of nature noise in the background, one that I can fall asleep to

Waterfalls, birds chirping, wind howling, etc.

[jade gust]

The only thing I really want HS to take inspiration from in Destiny is the Strikes, I think those could easily be adapted into a Spartan Ops 2.0

[worldly sedge]

Helldivers 2 majorly

[lavish hamlet]

Viva Pinata is your best bet for that chill vibe

[worldly sedge]

Our Helldivers brothers are fighting for their lives

[lavish hamlet]

Oh I didn't know it was a bad idea.

[jade gust]

Your idea to "counter" people making guides is bad

[lavish hamlet]

Is it really? Or does it just not align with your own ideas

i think bad is a strong word.

[worldly venture]

As long as spartan ops actually becomes good, ill be fine

[waxen rose]

Dont ping me little bro

[lavish hamlet]

please dont tell me what to do

[worldly venture]

Real.

[jade gust]

That's why I want a Spartan Ops which takes inspiration from Strikes in Destiny, especially ones like Winter's Run in D1, I think those kinds of Strikes could easily work as a Spartan Ops mission

[worldly venture]

Like you was cooking with making stuff findable but so much unnecessary stuff was added

[waxen rose]

??

[worldly venture]

From when I faintly played destiny I do remember those being cool, dont know if they were kept around

[jade gust]

At least with the Golden Moas in Halo MCC, those being randomised is fine, since they're just a way to get more points to use to unlock stuff, but forcing players to search multiple locations just to try and unlock an armour piece just feels like a bad idea

[jade gust]

They are still in Destiny 2 but many of them in the game now are recycled seasonal missions or don't feel as good as the ones in D1 to me

And well, some of the early D2 Strikes got reworked for the worse

Like genuinely, I hate what they did to the Lake of Shadows Strike

But part of what I think hurts allot of the D2 Strikes is the level design not being as good

[lavish hamlet]

Care to expand on that? What makes it a bad idea if you don't mind me asking? Is having to invest more time than expected what's bothering you? Genuinely curious.

[jade gust]

It's because you want to tie a permanent unlock behind RNG for the sake of forcing players to explore more

Like, if I've just done a difficult jumping puzzle to reach where Security might be obtained, only to find I need to check two other locations, I'm not going to want to check those other locations out of excitement, it will be out of annoyance

But also, again, it would not counter what you want it to counter (Which doesn't need countering in the first place)

[fickle drift]

It doesn't encourage exploration, it encourages looking up a YouTube video of data-mined potential locations.

[jade gust]

That too

Like, if anything people are more likely to turn to guides

[lavish hamlet]

It is RNG but to a certain extent if there's only 3 locations. And I believe that will make the armor stand out and make it much more rare if players aren't keen on exploring the other locations if the first one didn't work out. Also, never attempt LASO if you easily give up after one attempt at finding the hidden objects..

[waxen rose]

Me and my stupid 29 audio recording guides in odst

[worldly venture]

Laso and finding stuff is NOT the same

[fickle drift]

I think the value in those collectibles is spotlighting environmental storytelling or easter eggs. Things that are fun or have value in of themselves.
Collectibles that only have value as a completed stack scale in frustration with their number, imo.

[lavish hamlet]

🤦‍♂️

[jade gust]

The audio logs were great because they had static locations and you got hints as to where they were via the environment itself (Virgil, oh how great you were)

[worldly venture]

Ur not cooking sorry man

[waxen rose]

Virgil I need you to hold my hand and guide me through the map to all 29 locations

[jade gust]

Yeah, the LASO comparison to exploring the world was a terrible one

[lavish hamlet]

I don't think it was a bad analogy LOL I used LASO as a comparison for how time-consuming it would be.

[muted rose]

Just pull up a guide

[fickle drift]

Admittedly I'm lost in the sauce a bit for what the original point was.

[jade gust]

Papi wants to counter people making guides to unlock things for some reason

[lavish hamlet]

You guys won man. I'll take the L

[muted rose]

🤷‍♂️

[fickle drift]

Oh, but RNG doesn't do that people just data-mine

[waxen rose]

He wants to destroy the Whip and nae nae guide in Halo

[muted rose]

That’s not something you can control

[worldly venture]

Didnt thay guy go to jail 😭

[waxen rose]

WHAT

[worldly venture]

Yea he killed someone right

[waxen rose]

omg @grok is this true

[worldly venture]

@croc can you say this with a mickey mouse impression

[waxen rose]

Croc is too busy making 60$ shoes

[lavish hamlet]

what the actual f is your problem? why isn't this guy banned bro?

[waxen rose]

Lmao what

[lavish hamlet]

why would you say that?

[waxen rose]

I was responding to DesiredDream - who brought the topic up

[lavish hamlet]

way too close to home I'm down for laughs but that was just messed up why even say that though lol. why did the conversation shift to that.

[waxen rose]

I deleted the message because it hurt you, thanks

[lavish hamlet]

it was just disrespectful but thank you I guess

[waxen rose]

DesiredDream brought the topic up, thanks

what should i pack on that day

also im getting the series s on july 15th

[analog knot]

I miss when they were random 😦

[jade gust]

They changed that? I haven't really needed to go find them in years now so I honestly didn't know they changed them

[analog knot]

Yes. Now it’s the same spots every time just different maps. So every other week is pretty much the same

[elfin glacier]

a 4D Hypercube is a must

fun for the whole family

[autumn solar]

Ah yes I love my 4d hypercube

[hexed geyser]

4D Cube jokes aside I'll pack the Xbox one & My switch 1

[trim saddle]

Nintendo's next console after the switch 2, 4d cube.

[jade gust]

I was hoping for the NX 3 personally

[turbid stirrup]

for ranked arena is shows like 1:54 estimated wait time, but I've been waiting for like an hour and half and haven't been able to get a single match any idea?

[hexed geyser]

remember when the mcc was 117 gigs?

[fickle drift]

Those are rookie numbers

[turbid stirrup]

yea well I don't have the convenience of living in western lands or the eastern ones, just the worst one

I'm happy to get 250ping games now

nobody really plays outside america*

[waxen rose]

it's alright taht was 4 yrs ago

I was in uni back then

There are multiple new Halo projects being developed right now

I can confirm

[viral dune]

We getting a hot orange juice halo game

[turbid stirrup]

the biggest question is am I ever getting a ranked game
cus like after a long while I'm almost making D1

somehow even on 250ping

what's that gonna do

[waxen rose]

1/5 game. Too much hot OJ. Only recommend to torment any of the annoying oranges you got

[urban pawn]

Hello people

[faint mantle]

Spoof your location, but that adds an extra layer of having to route your traffic. If it's not one of the premium VPNs like Proton, then it'll likely add ping time.

[turbid stirrup]

yea I don't think that's gonna help much

[faint mantle]

A VPN is more fooling yourself than fooling the system imo

[turbid stirrup]

250 - 300 is already bad enough
I'm not sure adding vpn is even going make it playable

[faint mantle]

Nope, it likely won't

[turbid stirrup]

yep

[hardy bane]

Doesnt sound promising ngl..

[turbid stirrup]

I'm looking at 300 + latency due to the vpn system now

I mean I do get games but for some only now I am not,
is it cus everyone is partied up?
but how could that even be possible?

if it showed that too long to find match or 4m wait time, then it would have been ok

I did get 1 match in ranked slayer and placed D1 finishing my placements so it's not like a shadow ban?

[steady jolt]

We know nothing about what they are, so it's a bit early to make judgements

[faint mantle]

@peak trench take note

[turbid stirrup]

eh it's okay,
many people believe that vpn somehow improves their matchmaking experience/ improve their latency

[faint mantle]

Keyword: Believe
We have busted the myth :)

[empty sable]

I am so fed up of people in firefight fiesta. You have players who don't play the objective, don't revive.

These guys purposefully weren't doing it either. I've had to block about 50 people in 4 weeks due to this very thing. I can't tell if the majority are trolls or just noobs.

[haughty moat]

I’m back to playing halo mcc

[lapis ivy]

I haven't had this often and most of the guys I'm teamed up with are chill noobs quite suck

[empty sable]

I can understand if your career rank is Bronze - Gold. However anything upwards from that should mean you have basic knowledge of how to play the game. These guys were mid-onyx. In my books that is no excuse. Skill is not measured by rank but you should know by Onyx that you are meant to stand in a hill to capture it.

[fickle drift]

Hi everyone

I do have the master chief collection tho so I have played combat evolved

I'm still stuck at plat 😂

And if I don't play it more I'm not advancing any further

I've got 2 weeks left until I should hit hero.

[deep bobcat]

Its fun as hell

Halo C.E lobbies are funny

[gaunt lance]

Halo SUCKS (just kidding it’s my favorite game)

[haughty moat]

So I encountered the flood in halo ce what a game halo ce is. I’m loving it so much.

[gaunt lance]

I remember when me & my cousin played the library as kids & we got through it by singing the “goofy goo bear” song from sponegebob

If you saw my last sentence then #iykyk

That’s the mission I’m on atm. The library.

[gaunt lance]

Don’t think about anything just keep the mission in your head no matter what you hear going on

Good luck
The Library sucks

A little bit of warning for you before you play the first 2 halo games: never play them on legendary

That's if you don't wanna lose 70 bucks

[fickle drift]

combat evolved legendary is the best and most fair legendary

i agree about halo 2 legendary though

you will shave off years of your life from sheer stress alone playing halo 2 legendary

[harsh lance]

Halo 3 legendary is the best tbh, in 1 you kinda just spam plasma pistol and shotgun

[vestal harness]

Halo

[fickle drift]

no comment on 3 id need to play the campaign more (and on legendary) to form an opinion

i wouldnt be surprised if it is quite good though

i played reach on legendary and that was hell. didnt even bother with 4 legendary because i heard it's pretty terrible. heroic is my go-to in most games aside from ce

[drowsy coyote]

lol and what’s different in 3

[fickle drift]

Too bad keep talking

Try not to get glassed: Reach challenge edition

[faint mantle]

Sarn indeed

[true acorn]

can i pull an ace attorney and reasonably debate with you?

[safe dawn]

what exactly counts as roleplay though, does it have to be like explicit roleplay or is it just anything including a joke that might not be roleplay but is just playing along with a joke (asking as someone who does/has run roleplays for stuff before (not here though))

[waxen rose]

“Im gonna blow up reach!!!” he announced in a silly way

That kinda roleplay nuh uh!!1!

[faint mantle]

We already have a real attorney in the team, so I suggest you don't even try

[faint mantle]

Simple jokes are fine. But continuous rp like that ID thingy, no.

[safe dawn]

fair enough, I wouldn't personally call that actual rp but I ain't gonna die on a hill today

[waxen rose]

Nothing can top actual roleplaying

[safe dawn]

depends on the rp

darn dang it damn nabbit- intense texas disapproval

Omg finally someone who understands.…

I own almost all 115 books, im missing 12💕

[safe dawn]

FR THO, I met two guys and hung out with them excessively, and then proceeded to lose contact with on and then the other, took me like 5 years to figure out that I could just use google and nameMC lol

I found one who was confirmed to be the same guy, and one who was probably the same guy or just a guy on discord who didn't want to deal with me more than he had to XD

[waxen rose]

I've been friends with my bff for 6 years after we met on a Wings of Fire roleplay game😭

[safe dawn]

WHAT THE HECK DID I MISS THAT THERE's 115 BOOKS RELATED TO WARRIORS??? bluh

[safe dawn]

that is the last book series I expected to get an rp but I'm not really suprised lol

[waxen rose]

“Buy my books”
“Yes firestar”
“15$ for a hardcover”
“No firestar”

wait I knew there were rps for this already-

fr tho

I never read WoF besides the comics

I'm trying 😭 I blame the fact that we ended up shooting on the range for me forgetting

[waxen rose]

I was almost like “wow heartwarming” till I finished reading the whole paragraph 😭

[safe dawn]

🤣 fr, I'm out of contact with the guy who I confirmed again, but I just wanted to make sure they were alive tbh XD

mostly bc one of them just left with the most "I might be about to die" message he could've (that was the guy I got back in contact with for a bit), and the other just disappeared off the face of the internet

[waxen rose]

Its so sad there's no halo rp games on roblox…
Unless you wanna rp as a png 💔

[waxen rose]

This has me screaming 😭

[safe dawn]

ngl there's no halo RP's anywhere outside of discord or just on halo lol, and even those fell off

[waxen rose]

RIGHT?? Its so awkward halo rping on disc

[safe dawn]

not really tbh, I like it bc I'm already used to text based rp ie. minecraft, roblox

the biggest difference was it being paced and not live and in the moment

[waxen rose]

Right

I used to rp halo in warrior cats rp on roblox

[safe dawn]

tbh it was cool bc it at least let me describe the actions further than, "{char} threw a punched and then dodged to the side"

[waxen rose]

*dodges *

Right…

[safe dawn]

like you got this whole fight scene in your head but so does the guy your up against and neither of you have the same image bc you can't describe it in detail bc the fight is literally happening as fast as you can type

[safe dawn]

thankfully I wasn't one of those guys lol

[waxen rose]

I used to be the guy who would ask permission to end the other persons character in rp

[safe dawn]

tbf I also am that guy still, but half of the people in the current rp I'm in are just BEGGING to get shot in the face, but I cant bc ptk is a thing

[waxen rose]

Yk when you hyperfixate on your ocs so bad you can't stop drawing them

[safe dawn]

like, irl you woulda been laid out on the pavement already with every bone shattered in your body but I can't touch you more than this bc you don't want the oc to die yet (they've died 3 times already and refuse to stay dead)

[waxen rose]

No!!! Dont beat me up!

[floral pollen]

Me but renders (I have like 4 new OCs bc of it)

[safe dawn]

no bc I can't draw that well lol, I drew my main OC once

[waxen rose]

One in the same… just in a different color

[safe dawn]

never again bc I can't draw faces to save my life

I will say I do have a stupid amount of minecraft skins for my main oc lol

[waxen rose]

That's why you hide their face behind a helmet😭

[safe dawn]

FRRRRRR goggles and a gaiter with a hood on goes insanely hard

[floral pollen]

I "kitbashed" a Halo Reach marine model and a H4 techsuit for my OC model I did lol

[waxen rose]

I cant stop drawing my halo two fav ocs (I have over 50 atp bro help) I love them so much…

[safe dawn]

kitbashed is an understatement lmfaooo

[floral pollen]

Yea lmao
It honestly didn't look as bad as I thought it would tho

[safe dawn]

am I the only one who finds it mildly amusing that "no roleplay" caused chat to just become chatting about roleplay

[waxen rose]

At least we aren't roleplaying

[safe dawn]

was about to say that lol

my cat is laying on her back, I must rub the belly

[waxen rose]

Kitty!!!!

[safe dawn]

IT WAS A TRAPPPP

(totally didn't jumpscare her bc I went to rub her chest and she wasn't even looking in my direction at first lol)

[waxen rose]

I have terminal brainrot i turned my halo ocs into warrior cats….

(Cats are just easier to draw)

[safe dawn]

valid

[waxen rose]

Apologise to her

[safe dawn]

no bc she tried to eat my hand after booping my finger

[waxen rose]

She was hungry..

[safe dawn]

I am not in the mood to be consumed

[waxen rose]

Dress your cat up as John Halo
She has to finish the fight

[safe dawn]

XD

funny thing is I do have a master chief costume, the issue is that:

1. it doesn't fit her
2. the mask doesn't fit her
3. she's have a FIT if I tried to put it on
4. she runs from the energy sword

[waxen rose]

She… can loaf on the energy sword. That certainly counts

[safe dawn]

she doesn't even do that

she loafs on my books WHILE I'M READING THEM though 😭

[faint mantle]

Why are we talking about bread cats?

[viral dune]

Brother

[safe dawn]

bc my cat tried to eat my hand

[faint mantle]

Hello brother

[waxen rose]

John Halo cat loaf.

[viral dune]

It's time to play brother

[safe dawn]

I have that image in my head now and it is going to live there rent free.

[waxen rose]

OMG my dog licks my books and it makes me so incredibly mad

[faint mantle]

I agree brother
I am playing videos right now

[safe dawn]

at least it isn't your cat rubbing on the USB CONNECTORS PLUGGED INTO YOUR LAPTOP

[waxen rose]

WHAT THE SKIBIDI

[viral dune]

Hey you have something waiting for you in your gift inventory!

[safe dawn]

que the que (I forgot how to say the in spanish, sue me, I can't be bothered to revisit my spanish lessons bc japanese is what I'm furthest along in rn 😭 )

[faint mantle]

I downloaded my entire TikTok library and I'm watching some videos rn

[waxen rose]

YOU DOWNLOADED IT???

[faint mantle]

Do I? I never pay attention to those things...

[safe dawn]

that's one way to avoid needing wifi

[viral dune]

Yeah! It's the very bright pink banner thingy at the top of your discord window, brother

[faint mantle]

Yes

[waxen rose]

Its giving my grandpa downloading all the videos on Facebook😭

[faint mantle]

More like needing the app. I noticed my attention span shortening so I uninstalled the app for my own sake. I now just downloaded what I've deemed worthy.

[safe dawn]

my cat is pawing at my shades trying to get to the window at fricking 00:30 😭

[waxen rose]

23 GB… 1/3rd the size of fnaf security breach

[faint mantle]

I don't know what this is but I don't need it

[safe dawn]

valid, my attention span is as long as I need it to be or until I can see the world blurring around what I'm trying to focus on

[viral dune]

I have the same thing brother, and when I click on claim it tells me that an error occurred

Very odd

[waxen rose]

Go to bed kitty!!

[safe dawn]

when will discord add an auto off thing for reply pings 😭

[waxen rose]

I feel a wave of shame overcome me whenever I ping someone through the reply system

[viral dune]

When will discord add hot orange juice

[waxen rose]

GET IN LINE.

[safe dawn]

tbh I like to be pinged bc 9/10 times I will miss it and never see the message

[viral dune]

I don't like lines

[safe dawn]

lines are mid tbh, should let us have a FFA match to see who goes first

omg- idea: max lobby FFA on BTB maps

[waxen rose]

Omg the one guy who - while waiting in line for the Nintendo switch 2 - shoved another man out of line and took his place 😭

[safe dawn]

some people have clearly never been punched in self defence

[faint mantle]

I have all I need in here, like the english version of a great song

[waxen rose]

The song is so buns and spiderman is so sad…

[safe dawn]

I don't even want to know what that's going to be XD (besides the fact my mobile hotspot would stroke out tryna load that)

[faint mantle]

You strike me as someone who would add it to their playlist instantly

[waxen rose]

WHAT???

[safe dawn]

but tbh if the song is blasting loud enough to shake the neighborhood, I can confirm it's true

[waxen rose]

My playlist is full of Adele, Mindless self indulgence, and Fleetwood mac, thx💕

[faint mantle]

Listen to the original and tell me if I'm wrong
https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=_Uc9wCfoKfM

[safe dawn]

(my family is hispanic and likes playing songs in spanish, they are ALWAYS blasting the heck out of it)

[faint mantle]

@viral dune what do you wish to play, brother?

[safe dawn]

like man we don't live in NY anymore 😭 stop living up to the long island sterotypes

[waxen rose]

Im gonna be so fr with you unc… (I dont know Spanish) :(

[viral dune]

Let's play some space marine 2 and once Darktide gets updated in 2 days, we can play that, brother

[faint mantle]

I don't know Russian either, and yet...

[waxen rose]

My family listens to Russian music whenever we are feeling quirky

[safe dawn]

ngl, the only reason I don't go back to learning spanish is probably also the same reason I slowed down drastically on russian,

1. rolling r's is a pain in the butt
2. duolingo fell off as a langauge learning platform

[viral dune]

I'm one level away from resetting my tactical marine for the second time

[faint mantle]

BROTHEEEER

LET'S GET YOU THERE

[waxen rose]

SECOND IS FIRE!!!1!

[safe dawn]

what kind of russian music

[faint mantle]

Imma restart my pc brb

[viral dune]

HELL YEAH BROTHER

[waxen rose]

Classical because my grandpa is a old cake

[viral dune]

Gonna play GD while I wait ping me when you're ready @faint mantle

[faint mantle]

Anything by Перемотка is fire

[safe dawn]

me listening to kino, amatory and sunburst: :p

[viral dune]

My adapter finally arrived

[waxen rose]

Duolingo fell off🗣

[safe dawn]

and whoever else my spotify throws at me that I like

[safe dawn]

ngl, despite what everyone says, the AI stuff didn't kill duolingo, it wasn't even a nail in the coffin, it was just the last rites as it's casket was lowered into the dirt

[waxen rose]

Joyous!!! Be joyful!! NOW.

[waxen rose]

Their constant emails is what did it for me 💕

[meager linden]

Ew, russian music

[safe dawn]

duolingo died once they added the hearts system and made it near impossible to start a new langauge

[safe dawn]

how dare you

[waxen rose]

Everyone has an opinion… sigh..

[safe dawn]

he's allowed to be wrong (unfortunately)

[faint mantle]

If you have Ukranian music of a similar genre I'll gladly listen to it and add the ones I like to my playlist

[waxen rose]

Lets let him be wrong💕

[safe dawn]

he just hasn't heard kino or amatory yet, he'll learn eventually

[waxen rose]

Eventually…

[safe dawn]

cries in as soon as I get into a new band I find out they stopped making songs like a decade ago

this happens way too much lol

just "Oh hey I actually like all of the music from these guys, lemme che-" "last uploaded 5 years ago"

[waxen rose]

Me when I find out Rammstein hasn't made songs since 2019….

[waxen rose]

This actually breaks my heart

[quaint kettle]

The Strokes

Well

[safe dawn]

tbh 9/10 times 5 years is a stretch, but at the same time, like, once a band hasn't uploaded in 1-2 years, you know they aren't doing anything again

[waxen rose]

The Smiths

[safe dawn]

racking my brain for a band I know that starts with an S and failing to find anything

uh,

sunburst?

[waxen rose]

The Sunburst!1!

[safe dawn]

🤦‍♂️
lol

(in all seriousness tho sunburst's songs are great, but they haven't uploaded since 2018 and don't have a youtube channel or ANYTHING 😭 )

like man, why did I have to end up excessively liking the ONE group who hasn't been around for almost an ENTIRE DANG DECADE

[waxen rose]

Artic monkeys not posting new songs actually breaks me

[safe dawn]

no clue who that is tbh

[waxen rose]

They're so fricken good if you like indie

[safe dawn]

ngl, I'm the guy who doesn't know what genere he listens to lol

[waxen rose]

LIKE!!!

[waxen rose]

I listen to them all too

[meager linden]

https://youtu.be/yA682VkhhF8?si=DDsar74ji4D65Md6
Here's some from Stalker 2 radio beats: Sinking Skadovsk

[safe dawn]

I'm also the guy who hates most pop in English but will listen to japanese pop just fine

[waxen rose]

Okay Japanese pop goes hard when you dont understand what they're saying

[safe dawn]

to be fair Japanese pop has like 50 different sub genre's that are completely different lol

[safe dawn]

100% true lol, learn japanese alongside it for the added, "wait, what are they saying-" moments

[waxen rose]

Me when Rabbithole by Deco*27

[meager linden]

https://youtu.be/IILyVFmz8F4?si=luxrtG5YefY98x_o
More here, it's Stalker 2 official Soundtrack, more like collection

[safe dawn]

you recognize one word out of the song and are now COMPLETLEY confused bc it makes no sense

[quaint kettle]

Weebs

[waxen rose]

I dont watch anime anymore surprisingly

[safe dawn]

bro just can't appreciate good music, smh

[safe dawn]

ngl anime got me into japanese pop by complete accident

[waxen rose]

Me and my dad watched 400 naruto episodes though so.…

[faint mantle]

UGHHHHH I NEED TO PLAY STALKER 2

[lapis ivy]

Sometimes Spotify doesn't have all the music I'm looking 😔

[waxen rose]

Those intros always get you

[safe dawn]

I am not touching naruto lol

[faint mantle]

I have Game Pass and I don't use it
I'm part of Microsoft's target market

[safe dawn]

it was actually the outro

[meager linden]

I rewatched Naruto for 22 times(only Shippuden)

[waxen rose]

Me and my dad on episode 102 of one peice I cant take it anymore

[safe dawn]

the intro I didn't care about at all

[meager linden]

I once watched one piece, so bad

[waxen rose]

Why are half-outros so sad and depressing

[meager linden]

Wait, did I forget to say something?

[waxen rose]

The first part was good. I was laughing… then… the long-nosed guy appeared

[lapis ivy]

WW2 documentaries are driving me bunkers

[meager linden]

Good bright morning people of Halo

[safe dawn]

the song was "never fear" by mao abe, ngl it was more the animation mixed with the song not matching the show's events in the slightest that got me, and then I just let amazon music do its thing, then I found Ado, and now here we are

[safe dawn]

idk

[safe dawn]

cries in 1am

[waxen rose]

Haha 12 am get bent

[safe dawn]

but I don't wanna bend

I'm already crouching on the floor to use my laptop bc of the cursed setup I have in my room lol

[waxen rose]

Shrimp posture check!

[safe dawn]

lol

[waxen rose]

Make sure you aren't turning into a shrimp

[lapis ivy]

🦐

[meager linden]

Don't worry, WW3 will be a documentary about drones and nuclear weapon

[safe dawn]

glances at the fact that I'm about as thick as one I may already be halfway there

[lapis ivy]

I have a drone I bought from Walmart

[waxen rose]

Suddenly you grow a little shrimpy tail… sorry

[meager linden]

We need you

[safe dawn]

nuh-uh

[waxen rose]

yuh huh🙄

[lapis ivy]

Problem is I don't know how to operate the damn thing 🤣

[safe dawn]

dangit now I have a random song playing in my head in japanese, that THE NAME WAS IN KANJI SO I CAN'T REMEMBER IT NOW 😭

[waxen rose]

Now I wanna listen to some Hatsune Miku songs...

[safe dawn]

all ik is it was a NANOAKARI song

[meager linden]

It's easy, I also have a drone, and I have been taught by the military, they are good at teaching to piloting drones

[safe dawn]

listen to the Ado and Miku collabs

[meager linden]

NOT MIKU

[safe dawn]

who hurt you

[waxen rose]

ME WHEN TETO!!!!

[lapis ivy]

And you can operate it with a phone?

[waxen rose]

Im gonna battle you.

[safe dawn]

daikirai? (I refuse to put the full length of that song name 😭 )

[meager linden]

Not on phone, but on controller

[lapis ivy]

[waxen rose]

We should replace The Weapon with Miku so Master Chief has a better AI

[faint mantle]

Darkrai?

[meager linden]

How dare you

[safe dawn]

no, it's a song name but the dai is repeated like 5 times

[waxen rose]

Its just an objectively beautiful idea.

[safe dawn]

I refuse to try to work that out in text

[meager linden]

Merty, did you saw new puzzle picture piece that I collected?

[lapis ivy]

If I can learn how to operate the drone then I can get a bigger drone hehe

[waxen rose]

Drone backflips when

[safe dawn]

when I find my drones charger

it has built in stunts, the only issue is the battery barely lasts 15 minutes 🤣

[waxen rose]

That's a tragedy…
