I miss them already

seeing a hulk fly at you is so funny

[meager linden]

You are lucky to not seeing them
Jumping hulks

[hearty flame]

One step closer to an ODST crossover

[fickle drift]

apparently you could frontally kill jetpack hulks with the grenade launcher

[ocean herald]

it's about time Xbox got a good game

[obsidian wyvern]

idk about grenade launcher, but you can 1 tap them with the railgun

[meager linden]

At least not tanks or strider

[obsidian wyvern]

my striders fly
https://streamable.com/ypznyo

[fickle drift]

normally you need heavy pen and to go for the eye but something about the jetpack lets it be hit by the grenade launcher's aoe to kill it

[meager linden]

Oh yeah, saw it on Instagram

[fickle drift]

yaaa hoo hoo weee

[meager linden]

And that's why I'm liking Helldivers 2

[sacred spruce]

Helljumpers and Helldivers side by side now. I can die in peace now

[ocean herald]

i wonder if you'll have to link your xbox account

[harsh vector]

the real jet brigade

[ocean herald]

sorry, link to a psn account i mean

[meager linden]

I guess no, for why

[obsidian wyvern]

I kinda feel like they will but after the last time I can also see it not happening

[ocean herald]

pc players had to link to psn

halo on pc makes you link to xbox. plenty of publishers kinda 'require' it

[obsidian wyvern]

they removed the requirement

[meager linden]

It was in the past, currently no

[fickle drift]

sony backtracked on forced psn a while ago
and just recently backtracked on the region locks, hence also recently receiving the reviewbomb cape
chances are helldivers2 will not require a psn link on xbox

[obsidian wyvern]

I didn't link a psn account when I started playing

[fickle drift]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1103229065395191849/1383306764119838880/regions_unlocked.mp4

[obsidian wyvern]

I think the latest review bomb cape was because of the confusion with china not being able to be liberated

[ocean herald]

i know they backtracked, i'm saying that was a requirement they intended from the start. they only went back on it because of how the pc community reacted

[obsidian wyvern]

during the defense for super earth*

[harsh vector]

latest review bomb cape was for the sony account linking incident

[fickle drift]

reviewbomb cape was planned and even made a year ago but they held out on releasing it because we did not truly "win" against sony yet, until region unblock

[obsidian wyvern]

oh

I thought they released 2 separate versions

[harsh vector]

the red lines represent the negative reviews on the steam charts

[fickle drift]

one of the capes is for the defense of super earth, the most recent one is the reviewbomb one

they released pretty much back-to-back

[meager linden]

Haha, time to meet again, IBIS
For last time

[meager linden]

Also, I collected all battle logs and completed all missions

[obsidian wyvern]

s ranked them all?

[ocean herald]

i hope the option to link is there, primarily because of cross progression. could also get free gamescore if achievements track over

[meager linden]

No lol, but I have only one s mission

[harsh vector]

they said cross progression isnt coming with this

[ocean herald]

oof

[obsidian wyvern]

s ranking is pretty easy with the dual stun needles

[empty sable]

Helldivers is coming to xbox

[fickle drift]

I hate that so much

[obsidian wyvern]

no way

[empty sable]

Helljumpers ready!

[analog knot]

Isnt the difference that for Halo most multiplayer is on XBL Servers so you have to have the account. But the PSN requirement was added later, and the game doesnt use their servers for multiplayer?

[empty sable]

Do we know if its crossprogress?

[rare cedar]

https://fxtwitter.com/Xbox/status/1940764929537331362

[empty sable]

If I can get my steam progress on xbox then I'll get it on xbox

[fickle drift]

no cross save/cross prog yet (even once xbox port releases)

[meager linden]

Nobody knows

[fickle drift]

if you ask because you want another chance at the preorder drip, cm mitchimus says that there will be another opportunity to obtain preorder drip down the line for pc and ps players

[ocean herald]

the psn requirement was listed day 1 but not enforced due to technical difficulties. the real fiasco was the game being listed in regions where psn isn't available/allowed

as far as xbox, i don't know why you have to link your account. not saying it's a bad thing, but it's not optional and pc players didn't/don't really seem to mind

[empty sable]

Ohhh.. The PC players really did mind

[ocean herald]

i think in part it lets them "moderate" their playerbase and enforce bans on players by having access to their platform account details. i don't know most of the technical ins/outs on why it's a requirement though

[ocean herald]

i don't remember a review bomb campaign lol

[empty sable]

There was one lol

[fickle drift]

helldivers 2 is p2p iirc. and maybe at most there is a master server for your account and the galactic war

[ocean herald]

speaking about halo i mean

[empty sable]

Oh I'm speaking of Helldivers 2.

There was a huge review bomb when they added the PS Link requirement.

[ocean herald]

yeah not what i'm saying. i'm saying the account linking for xbox/halo

[empty sable]

I only understand linking accounts if it means cross progression.

However if its not that then I see no reason for linking an account.

[ocean herald]

cross progression, trophy/achievement progress, friends lists, etc. would require linking. the way adding friends works now on hd2 is via friend code (for people not on the same platform as you)

[empty sable]

Indeed.

I've got a lot of things unlocked on the steam version.

I'll only get it on xbox if it there is cross progression for smoother fps

However I had no issues playing it on steam in general.

[ocean herald]

i have it on ps5 & pc. although i haven't really touched it on pc

[empty sable]

PS5 and PC don't have cross progression from what I can see.

They said they didn't bother adding it as they thought the game wouldn't be popular enough.

Though I'm sure it'll be possible to add? Given I don't think MCC released with cross platform progress

[analog knot]

All of Halos multiplayer is built on Xbox Services 😄

So the xbl account is strictly required, thats the difference

[fickle drift]

i imagine that with xbox port they will probably begin to take a more serious look at cross save

[empty sable]

Indeed.

[analog knot]

The link for Helldivers is clearly not a technical requirement considering it launched without it

[obsidian wyvern]

i do wonder how long hd2 will go on for

[analog knot]

Whereas in Halo if the XBL account isnt linked the multiplayer would not function

[empty sable]

I hope it gets added just so I can put it in my xbox library since my current setup is: Old games that aren't too graphically demanding go on steam, higher demanding games go on xbox

Helldivers falls inbetween that for me.

[fickle drift]

as far as we know they say they will keep doing new stuff as long as they can before it becomes too costly

[obsidian wyvern]

i also mean playerbase wise, because i dont see this game lasting forever like some

[analog knot]

checked Steamcharts, only 45K online? Dead game

cries in Halo

[fickle drift]

Is Infinite ashes then lmao

I’m just wondering what a game reset looks like. That’s what happens if Super Earth falls supposedly.

[empty sable]

Infinite is just floating in the abyss

[analog knot]

Infinite isnt really relevant (well, Halo as a whole is struggling here)

[empty sable]

I wonder if there will be lore added for xbox being added.

More reinforcements, supplies

[obsidian wyvern]

those c-01 permits did bits

[empty sable]

Xbox players are a result of the c-01 permits

Quicker aging, we are basically Clone troopers

[fickle drift]

Baby boom after the Illuminate invasion lmao

[obsidian wyvern]

[empty sable]

Lol people in the helldivers servers are whining about Xbox getting the pre-order bonus and devs saying that pc/ps5 will get another chance to grab the pre-order armours at a later date.

They really don't want other people having their "special armour"

[analog knot]

If you think thats bad look at Fortnite

[obsidian wyvern]

"if you respect the ogs dont buy the skin"

[empty sable]

If they add actual ODST armour I'll be hyped

[analog knot]

Anytime they bring back old skins people FREAK and demand an "OG" variant lmao

[obsidian wyvern]

they demanded it for a pickaxe the other day

[analog knot]

Don’t buy the Renegade skin if you respect OG Fortnite players. It’s more than a skin; it’s a symbol of their early commitment and grind. Let them keep their exclusivity.
Show your respect by appreciating its rarity, not owning it. Some things are better left untouched.

[fickle drift]

Melee weapons are awful

[obsidian wyvern]

and it makes like 0 sense to me, fortnite bring back this stuff because only the older players have it + fomo whatever, then they go and give those owners their own thing to introduce more fomo

[trim saddle]

Is there a helldiver discord server?

[empty sable]

Yea

[obsidian wyvern]

ill send it if u want - actually just click my name tag

Wear the commando armor and you'll be beating down all sorts of enemies.

that's what you get when your whole business model is false/fake scarcity

[lapis ivy]

Kinda hard to get the switch 2 these days lmao they said they were getting it on June 26 or 27 and now they're saying in July 27 bruh like really?

[analog knot]

I ordered a 5090 on Jan 30th and it arrived sometime in May

[empty sable]

Lol the playstation people are raging now.

[obsidian wyvern]

typical

[fickle drift]

people cling to exclusivity

[empty sable]

Why are people seriously still fixated on other console bad.

[ocean herald]

yeah it wasn't, but it was in the steam product page from day 1. they just didn't enforce it.

[empty sable]

Exclusivity died after the 360 era.

[elfin quail]

hi

Wassup

[paper sun]

Over the game being put on Xbox or the preorder armor thing?

[analog knot]

Right thats a major difference though

[elfin quail]

New here

[fickle drift]

i dunno ps4 had a lot of exclusives
i'd say exclusives are dead as of this gen

[lapis ivy]

I remember when both PS5 and Xbox series x and s were scarce until everyone owned one already that I got a chance to get both

[empty sable]

Both

[analog knot]

Gamers being stuck in the past? couldnt be

[lapis ivy]

But the switch 2 damn

[fickle drift]

dont forget about creek cape that's one people get mad about a lot too

[empty sable]

Aye, I got the halo infinite console. I tried getting it online but it sold out just before I could get it. Then my dad walked into a GAME locally and they had them in stock so we got it

Scalpers forgot there is still physical local stock

[fickle drift]

Anything PS getting put on something else makes them freak out.

Just like anything from a competitor being put onto PS makes them smug and giddy.

It’s actually pretty funny.

It’s never about the game itself it’s about the little war game they have in their head.

[lapis ivy]

So scalpers are the people who buy them out during launch release?

[empty sable]

Lol. I remember years ago some PS players are like "I heard halo mcc is going to PS, hahahahahah" nothing came of it.

[paper sun]

I mean PS is getting every Xbox game. lol

This is the first good PS game Xbox is getting

[ocean herald]

this isn't exclusive to ps fanboys though if we're being real.

[empty sable]

Aye. They absolutely rinsed the online stock.

[analog knot]

Why are you implying rumors arent always truth? wtf

[fickle drift]

Sega why did you do this to Gaming in the 80s, how could you?

[empty sable]

I was only able to get it due to stock still being sent to local retailers

[fickle drift]

That’s crazy

[empty sable]

Even the GAME staff were like, nobody else has been and asked lol

Meanwhile the entire internet was raging at them being out of stock.

Yeah… it would say that both companies should work together, so if there’s a ps game it is on Xbox and if there’s a new Xbox game it releases on ps too…

[fickle drift]

Hand

[lapis ivy]

Yeah they literally rinsed the store clean that not just me but also one Nintendo support agent in the phone said he didn't get a switch 2 either

[molten pelican]

They should battle in a large field

[elfin quail]

Lmao

[lapis ivy]

Yeah you better believe it bro😔

[fickle drift]

Put every game on everything that can run it, imo.

And I mean that genuinely.

[elfin quail]

Btw guys tell me if I’m wrong on somth since I do not speak English as my first language

If I cant beat Halo 3 on my smart fridge am I truly free

Ain't no problem with that but I'm not being able to get the switch 2

The internet after Helldivers II announced Xbox is being added to HELLDIVERS II

[empty sable]

Playstation zealots are crying

[fickle drift]

existing playerbase is going "that's it?" expecting more from the stream
i imagine there is at least somewhat of a manufactured outrage element to the exclusivity argument
supposedly blueberries and creek capers got massacred for their respective exclusivity fiascos, i never saw it and 99% of my playtime on helldivers 2 is quickplay with crossplay on, so i also chalk that up to manufactured outrage
people are apathetic but the one thing that will break them out of that apathy if even for a moment is being mad, so there's incentive to ragebait. especially on youtube or in steam forums

personally very happy to see xbox reinforcements arriving soon. this has been requested a lot, it's nice to see that it's happening

[meager linden]

Good hot evening people of Halo

[meager linden]

No way, I heard it's coming to Xbox

[trim saddle]

Yes, confirmed.

[elfin quail]

Guys we should revive halo mlg memes

Like the trick shots and master chief and mountain dew

[fickle drift]

We need it back

[velvet bough]

The rot consumes

[elfin quail]

Yup

[ocean herald]

Wait, doesn’t gears reloaded also release on aug 26th?

[obsidian wyvern]

yes

[ocean herald]

lol funny “coincidence”

[obsidian wyvern]

we got orders for the xbox players

[hasty zinc]

dang, wish it was on game pass for PC

[safe dawn]

👀

[dense dragon]

Should I buy the heroes of reach battlepass on halo infinite

[safe dawn]

I may finally have a reason to use my gift card money

[safe dawn]

Depends, do you already have seasons 2-5

[trim saddle]

Ooooohhhhhh boy.

[safe dawn]

Or at the least have them finished

[dense dragon]

No

[hasty zinc]

start with either s2 or the last one

[dense dragon]

Ok

[safe dawn]

Well, personally I'd recommend buying season 2, using the credits from that to buy 3, then use those for 4, then repeat with 5, then use the credits from 5 to buy 1

[dense dragon]

Smart

[elfin quail]

Wait are they adding helldivers to Xbox??

If it’s real then I’m so exited

[obsidian wyvern]

yea

[obsidian wyvern]

cdkeys its like $20 if that interests u

[hexed geyser]

hope we get an odst skin

[meager linden]

Omg, Rusty's OST

[ocean herald]

i'd be surprised if a ps published game would make it's way onto gamepass

they don't even do that for their top tier of ps plus (for brand new releases)

[obsidian lark]

They did that for Sifu, that was originally a ps exclusive

Helldivers is big enough that I’m sure they’ll want as many people to play it as possible, more copies sold

[ocean herald]

ps published, not saying ps exclusive

[rustic cradle]

wait, are they actually adding helldivers 2 to Xbox??, would it be on gamepass or no??

[hasty zinc]

no game pass right now, but yes

[rustic cradle]

welp..thank god Steam summer sale is active

[ocean herald]

announcement stream was a few hours ago. comes out aug. 26th

[rustic cradle]

alr

Helldivers and ODSTS fighting together will be awesome

[ocean herald]

hoping we get some halo inspired armor/accessories. you could argue some of the existing already do, but more official lol

[trim saddle]

would be cool but thats just an idea right now, we only know that xbox is getting HD2

[empty sable]

Might have to reinstall helldivers 2

[candid solar]

Watch it be Viva Pinata cosmetics

Helldivers2 x odst collab when 👀 …?

Whenever we get access to Helldivers I need my ODST armour

[harsh ginkgo]

August 26th

[rapid talon]

Hell yeah

[ember snow]

About time Helldivers 2 came to Xbox.

[elfin quail]

Yeah

[drowsy coyote]

Didn’t even realize until it was announced

Pretty cool

[meager linden]

It was today

[hybrid plover]

it’s basically friday

congrats to people who didn’t die

yk life is kinda like squid game

[normal owl]

It is so satisfying to change your watch battery yourself: all these tiny fragile mechanisms, yet you're able to perform a basic act of maintenance without ruining it (yet).

[hybrid plover]

don’t forget to switch the flux capacitor

[meager linden]

In my region, it feels like it is

[meager linden]

Sorry, but I don't like those accessories, they are quite annoying me, and I'm never used to having things on my left arm

[normal owl]

I totally get it. We each like what we like!

[obsidian wyvern]

my brother wears his on his right hand and it annoys me for no reason

[meager linden]

So, the next operation will be in next week, huh
Quite a quick time is passing

[lethal sand]

finally on the last level of Halo 4….

cant wait to get the achievement for legendary solo

[fickle drift]

As they say, it's Midnight somewhere in the world.

[lethal sand]

are there any skips for Midnight that I can use

[fickle drift]

Not easy ones, you can get the broadsword out of bounds but its a pain in the posterior.

[lethal sand]

well, what about when you’re in the ship

[fickle drift]

You can hop up some of the geometry when you're in the final arena, idk if I have a reference for it

[lethal sand]

thanks for the info!

[fickle drift]

Okay see the little raised section I look at in the middle of this? iirc you can crouch jump to the higher platform and it lets you skip some enemies.

The part I scope in on

[obsidian wyvern]

i was so confused about the original intent of that video

then i noticed the scope being funny

[lethal sand]

neat

[lethal sand]

yeah that is a weird looking light rifle

[fickle drift]

I wish I knew why it did that lol

[obsidian wyvern]

but yeah its basically just skipping a few enemies by running on the sides/jumping up ramps early

actually im thinking of the second level in 4

you can skip the middle section between the 2 objectives iirc

[fickle drift]

Oh yeah, you can use the geometry to jump over the top section instead of going the long way round

[lyric berry]

Halo is completely new to me, and I recently got the Master Chief Collection. I’m really bad at the game. I’ve been playing it with my friend, who’s a longtime halo fan, but he’s not great at coming up with gameplay advice. Does anyone have any tips on improving my gameplay?

[hybrid plover]

get gud

[quaint kettle]

Dont scope

[granite estuary]

Man.. knowing that helldivers 2 is coming to xbox makes me really hopeful for a Halo crossover 😔

[normal owl]

Found this cheap watch in the back of a drawer, threw a blue croc band on it to liven it up, and now it's ready for some fun!

[fickle drift]

Get used to checking the minimap where available
Don't worry about headshots until shields are popped
Most power weapons are on a 180 second timer so if you know where they are, look around at 9, 6, 3 minutes on the clock.

[lyric berry]

Ok thx. I think my biggest problem is aim, so that might help

[fickle drift]

You wont get all of this in one but game-sense is really important.

[hybrid plover]

WAIT IT IS!?

[lyric berry]

Kk thx

[hybrid plover]

just play and you’ll get better. ez

[lyric berry]

Yeah they announced it this morning. You can even get the original preorder bonuses if you preorder it

[hybrid plover]

NO WAY!!!!!!!!!

extremely hype for that holy smokes

[granite estuary]

YEAH ANNOUNCED THIS MORNING, Y'ALL JUMPERS ARE THE REINFORCEMENTS

[lyric berry]

Honestly Helldivers 2 has me really hyped to try Halo ODST

[fickle drift]

Great game, short but great.

[hybrid plover]

🫡 we’ll win this together

i was playing for a bit on my PC but my gpu is trash

[lyric berry]

It isn’t actually out until the end of August

[hybrid plover]

that’s fine i’m just happy we’re getting it

[granite estuary]

I said it got announced for xbox not out yet :)

[hybrid plover]

now give us spider-man 🔫

[meager linden]

You can buy it anytime on steam

[granite estuary]

Our current major order is to "prepare for the reinforvements" lmao

[meager linden]

26th August

[granite estuary]

Some don't have PCs :)

[hybrid plover]

major reinforcements

SOOOOO many people are about to play now

funny note. xbox is getting helldivers the same day playstation is getting gears of war

[fickle drift]

Very cool that more of my buddies can hop on now.

I want the diplomatic handshake where they exchange a physical copy of each like a peace offering lol

[hybrid plover]

i’ve been wanting this for so long

[fickle drift]

Then they can raise the Naboo orb

https://tenor.com/view/boss-nass-peace-starwars-gif-8138807

[granite estuary]

All i need tbh is there to be like a Halo collab that isn't announced yet to drop same day as HD2's xbox launch and I'll be happy

[hybrid plover]

that would go crazy and i’d spend money on it lol

[granite estuary]

Give me an M6D and a MA5B and an M90 and I'll go nuts

[hybrid plover]

and ODST armor

[meager linden]

HD2 has its own Battle Rifle

But it's very bad

[granite estuary]

Actually with the attachment system its insanely good

[meager linden]

Low penetration

[granite estuary]

Set it to burst-fire at 850rpm, with a vertical foregrip and flashhider it's literally the BR

[meager linden]

I'm using eruptor
It's more like a universal weapon
Sometimes you can even kill with it tanks

[pure halo]

imagine halo reach cutscenes remastered

[granite estuary]

Hit heads, highest AR damage in the game

Ah yeah, I'm not big on the eruptor myself

[meager linden]

Skill issue

[hybrid plover]

funny name

[granite estuary]

False, i don't need the meta gun to do well :)

[meager linden]

Shrapnel based weapon
When it hits enemies, a lot of small shrapnel deals more damage

[granite estuary]

It's a solid gun, just not my preference

[meager linden]

I'm not using meta, what are you talking about

[granite sky]

The smg defender with shield is pretty cool vs bugs

[granite estuary]

More of a shotgun user myself

Dude,, the eruptor is the meta atm..

[meager linden]

Shield won't save you from stalkers and from predator strain

[granite estuary]

Everyone and their grandma is gonna tell you to use the eruptor

[waxen rose]

Fear

[meager linden]

I don't care about meta, it means nothing for me

[granite sky]

Its pretty good vs them

[hybrid plover]

my grandma told me i look ugly

[waxen rose]

Based grandma

[hybrid plover]

then stabbed me

[waxen rose]

Nvm what 😭

[obsidian wyvern]

eruptor is pretty meta

[granite estuary]

Then don't dog on my choices?

[hybrid plover]

😔

[meager linden]

I play for fun, not coping everyone, and using what they are using

[granite estuary]

Saying the tenderizer sucks...

[obsidian wyvern]

i only noticed the shield exists the other day and have been trying to find something that can actually be used for it

[meager linden]

What was that?

[obsidian wyvern]

idk i just like the idea of carrying a shield in one arm

[fading wing]

Bruh

[granite estuary]

Right here

[obsidian wyvern]

some spanish
i saw liverpool
assuming its about their player who died the other day

#español btw, if my eyes were right

[meager linden]

Maybe against squids yes, but not against bots or bugs

[fading wing]

Today Diogo Jota has passed away at 28 years
A tragically car accident with his brother André Silva
Liverpool star who never will be forgotten
R.I.P and You'll never walk alone ❤️

[granite estuary]

It has light armor pen but hits like a truck it's very good on bots, i would say it's meh on bugs

I typically run pump shotguns on bots tho

[lethal sand]

im nearly done with this level

it hasnt given me THAT much trouble ngl

[hybrid plover]

jedi 3

[lethal sand]

now im at the part where you gotta go to the platforms and insert cortana to disable the didact’s shields

this part was a pain when I played on heroic

[meager linden]

Legendary much worse

[lethal sand]

yeah I know im playing on legendary

[obsidian wyvern]

laso you have to assassinate all the knights

[fickle drift]

You've got to make like Guinevere and get used to dancing with Knights

[meager linden]

I'm liking Halo hellpods, when they landed in Delta Halo

[lethal sand]

yeah this helped me skip some enemies, thanks!

[meager linden]

But I'm sure they have the same characteristics
Like penetration and damage to enemies

[worldly sedge]

That fan animation wasn’t lying

The Termanids are in trouble now

[candid solar]

This better not be another one-sided collab where we get like, just an emblem from it.

Like, gimme a Helldiver helmet or something, please.

[lapis ivy]

Got another Wilson catcher mitt A950 @candid solar how's it going

And still have enough for the switch 2 but I have to wait

[fickle drift]

Helldivers get a full ODST armor set, silenced smg, UNSC Eagle cape.
Halo gets: A Helldiver skull weapon charm. 😄

[obsidian wyvern]

i mean im fine with a helmet, but with like the siege collab, idk what id actually want to see from there in halo. i was fine with a charm

[muted rose]

Small indie team plz be patient

[obsidian wyvern]

and tbh chief/kelly in siege looked stupid lol

the models were fine, but why are they in siege

[lethal sand]

Gg, I beat Halo 4 legendary solo

I might do Halo 3: ODST legendary next

[obsidian wyvern]

nice, itll be way easier than 4 too

lore reason for xbox players

[hybrid plover]

we’re getting drafted 😳

[meager linden]

They choose planet near bot front, welp...

And why so deep on bug side planets?

[fickle drift]

Yeah I wonder

[meager linden]

Do they want to gamble near that small sector?

[obsidian wyvern]

we're sacrificing the xbots

[meager linden]

It will make a lot of sense if we have MO to retake back planets that have been captured by predator strain

[proven blaze]

yes could you dm me the invite? thanks

[worldly sedge]

Was that Helldivers Chief armor a Steam exclusive?

[hexed geyser]

who'll voice chief when steve Downes passes

[jade gust]

Nobody knows because he's still alive

[hexed geyser]

ok

[candid solar]

Considering he changed his tune on AI voicing Chief (Thank god), I'm hoping they respectfully retire the character.

[lapis ivy]

Is Helldivers like a Halo Crossover?

[lime cedar]

no

[hexed geyser]

i think i have an idea

remember the mp annoncer (cuz he wanted to voice cheif

[quaint kettle]

He isnt young either

[hexed geyser]

oh

[quaint kettle]

There is the body actor of the chief, but then again he isnt young either

[hexed geyser]

then idk

[obsidian wyvern]

sorry forgot

[lapis ivy]

So with downes passing away you think they'll stop making Halo?

[quaint kettle]

Love the behind the scenes

[candid solar]

You implied Steve Downes is Halo. He is not.

[granite sky]

They'll use AI Steve Downes after his death

[obsidian wyvern]

cant tell if ur trolling trench

[lapis ivy]

Not that it was the snarky guy part you also implied bro

[idle crystal]

hello chat

[candid solar]

Oh, I just fully expect some random new guy to come out of the woodwork, is my point with that

The usual "Halo was killed by 343 when they made Halo 4" type

[waxen rose]

John halo Downes isn't... Halo…
My (ring) world is ruined….

[lapis ivy]

Ok yeah that parts true in a sense cause of the exclusion of playable elites etc etc

[waxen rose]

No playable elites? Is it even halo atp?

[hexed geyser]

what if the xcube was a console

[quaint kettle]

…

[hexed geyser]

what games would it have

[waxen rose]

X… cube
Two very different shapes

[lapis ivy]

But also in a way Halo studios formally 343 started from scratch

[quaint kettle]

https://tenor.com/view/xbox-arhneu-oryginalny-oryginalny-xbox-dark-archon-gif-17109539

[waxen rose]

If you get a blueprint of what to do aka games already made
Does that count as starting from scratch

[lapis ivy]

What I meant is they did something similar when CE started before halo 2 with playable elites all the way to Halo reach

[hexed geyser]

my 10 y/o bro came up with an og xbox & gamecube combo console

[waxen rose]

gamecube…. How I miss the days of blowing into the cartridge to get it to work

[hexed geyser]

thaat's the N64

[quaint kettle]

I dont, it was a pain sometimes

[waxen rose]

Same with any DS model

[quaint kettle]

But then again switch got cartridges again

[waxen rose]

I blow in those too to get them to work😭

[quaint kettle]

I clean with a qtip

[lapis ivy]

Smart thing from Nintendo ngl

[quaint kettle]

True

Hard to mess up, easy to carry

[waxen rose]

No my switch has a hard time reading the chips now its so sad
She's on her last leg and I wont let her perish

[quaint kettle]

My switch can barely read the controllers sometimes on the rails

Im planning to get a switch 2 when I have the money

[waxen rose]

Money money money
Must be funny
In a rich mans world

[lapis ivy]

Also true the cartridge can accidentally fall into your washer machine and still work like the saying takes a licking and keeps on ticking

[waxen rose]

ACCIDENTLY FALL IN???

[quaint kettle]

Like if you leave them in your pants pockets

[waxen rose]

Y'all dont… put them back in their case?? Or the case that comes with the Nintendo switch holders??

[quaint kettle]

Life

Aint nothing or anybody perfect

[waxen rose]

60 dollar game in the washing machine would send me into a frenzy

[lapis ivy]

Yeah my original Zelda botw cartridge was in one of George pant pockets and got wet from the washer machine and kept on working before I got another copy

[quaint kettle]

Except for the tungsten cube

[waxen rose]

The way my ocd would kick in and I would never stop checking my pockets

[quaint kettle]

Remember, not everybody has ocd, sometimes I torture my mom by tilting picture frames

[waxen rose]

[waxen rose]

Do people not organize their Minecraft chests

[quaint kettle]

Sometimes yes, mostly no, waste of time

[lapis ivy]

If I have OCD that makes me buy more another copy of the same game cause I get the fear of losing it

[waxen rose]

Dreamcast collection on the Xbox 360 goes crazy

[lapis ivy]

I had the console before it stopped working

[waxen rose]

At least you enjoyed sonic time... I hope

[idle crystal]

chat is it worth blowing almost £2,000 on a set of Halo armour? i found some on cgarmors, MK V [B], and it looks awesome

[waxen rose]

If that’s an investment you truly want then go for it

[lapis ivy]

Yeah two of them games both sonic adventure and fur fighters were my first games on the Dreamcast and they were gold in that time

[idle crystal]

i have always wanted to pull up to the family function in a set of Spartan armour to let my family know that they need to seriously reconsider who they force out of their man cave to socialise. so i am going to try this

[waxen rose]

Sonic Adventures is peak🗣

[waxen rose]

Slay king!!

Im sure it'll be awesome

[unique saffron]

Is halo invite even possible to 100% on Xbox anymore? Because one achievement requires a match made stockpile game…which can’t be done anymore (to my knowledge)

[obsidian wyvern]

it can be

[unique saffron]

Where do I find stockpile?

[fickle drift]

It should be in Flag/Bomb right

[obsidian wyvern]

no its in btb

[unique saffron]

Not anymore

[obsidian wyvern]

and i think they changed the requirements so it can be done in customs

[unique saffron]

Ohhh ok

[obsidian wyvern]

im not 100% on that

[unique saffron]

I’ll try that though thanks

[fickle drift]

I've definitely had matches of it in 4v4

But customs is even better if that's possible

[obsidian wyvern]

i think stockpile 4v4 lasted a very very short while and got removed

[hasty zinc]

@normal owl have you ever played Odyssey in Exploration mode?

[obsidian wyvern]

oh, the achievement is in infinite. not mcc

[fickle drift]

Ohhhhhhhh

[steady wagon]

Chief mind telling me what you are doing in that hellpod?

[fickle drift]

I forgot Infinite even got Stockpile

[steady wagon]

Sir, liberty

[obsidian wyvern]

by far the worst mode

[fickle drift]

And it was a launch mode lol, the power seeds yeah it's coming back to me now

[quaint kettle]

I MISS THAT MODE

[hasty zinc]

I remember when the seeds spawned in that one banished AA gun on that one map

[obsidian wyvern]

said no one ever

[quaint kettle]

Not cool

[obsidian wyvern]

still says matchmade, so maybe not

i do remember them acknowledging the achievement existed when removing it

[fossil skiff]

Yeah, deadlock. That was a fun time.

[unique saffron]

It worked thanks

[obsidian wyvern]

nice

[normal owl]

I haven't, but only because my RPG persnicketiness made me inventory the game world. But I hear it's awesome because the world is both so beautiful and places are distinctive so it's easier to maintain a general sense of where you are. I believe it's close to how AC Shadows is by default.

Wait are you playing AC Odyssey for the first time?? It's one of my true gaming loves. @hasty zinc

[hasty zinc]

this will be my second time

Odyssey is my fav AC game hands down

I was just debating on which style to do

I went with exploration, let's see how it pans out

Only thing I dont like was
//spoilers
||the main big bad dino was only on screen for 5 minutes||

[fickle drift]

No surprise there

[waxen rose]

AND that all the food in the gas station WASNT somehow rotted after 18 years of being left there
All that food should be a biohazard by then😭

[molten pelican]

I saw it today lol

I think I only really like the first Jurassic world and the first Jurassic park. Park 2-3 are enjoyable they aren't bad

Last two have been pretty bad

[candid solar]

I think the last movie I actually watched in theaters was a Jurassic Park movie, come to think of it.

[waxen rose]

I hated the movie because my favorite character - Mr. DNA - didn’t show up

Smh 😒

[fickle drift]

So lame

[waxen rose]

Not even worth it… ugh

[cedar turret]

DId they at least put feathers on the t-rex?

[waxen rose]

No she was just as lizard skinned as ever

[cedar turret]

Shame. The T-rex is one of the ones we actually have surviving imprints of the feathers.

[waxen rose]

Yeah closest thing I saw on the dinos anything close to feathers were fleshy sails or bat-like wings

if it fails, will there be major budget cuts at that facility or will the game delayed by a month

[harsh ginkgo]

sigh Super Earth would beat the covenant and I’m tired of pretending they wouldn’t

[green swift]

Idk, ground wise maybe, in space I feel like super earth would get wiped

[harsh ginkgo]

Would you say it is fare to assume the covenant had 15,000 ships at there hight

As of today helldivers 2 has sold 15 million copies so there are a total of 15 million super destroyers so Super Earth outnumbers the covenant 1000 to 1

[green swift]

Good point

But like looking at these ships, they’re like paper mache with no defensive capabilities practically

[harsh ginkgo]

Super Destroyers may not be made for space combat but at a scale of 1000 to 1 it doesn’t really matter

[green swift]

Compared to covenant cruisers that could use like one shot to eradicate each

[green swift]

I guess but you’ve seen the crowd damage covenant cruisers can have. And then it raises a question of whether super destroyers can take down covenant shielding

And then they got huge stealth capability.

Like the one that snuck on reach to scout before the full invasion

[harsh ginkgo]

It takes about 20 megatons to take down a covenant sheild I calculated an orbital laser at 500 kilotons so at most it would take like 60 super destroyers to take down a covenant ship

I wonder, what happened to game industry, like, everything was good, but in one moment it's like everything doomed

[eager jasper]

I just had one of my best matches of halo infinite yet. Someone wearing brute / banished armor , we declared GLORY TO THE BANISHED.. and reversed a 9 kill lead in slayer.

and yes, super earth would absolutely win against the covenant . @harsh ginkgo

[fickle drift]

No offline mode, no peer to peer option, no EOL plans that I can see.

Where have I heard this song before…

[eager jasper]

Okay, if we're on the subject of stop killing games.. I'm sincerely happy it became as successful as it did. 😄

it won't have to be like that in the future, games will have single player components or bot matches in the future.

[harsh ginkgo]

Now there’s a helldiver

[lethal crater]

is BTB Strongholds not in matchmaking anymore?

[eager jasper]

@harsh ginkgo The amount of breeding super earth does and the fact they were able to save good chunks of their city due to determination, it chekcs out.

[harsh ginkgo]

The covenant May be strong but are they stronger than the Chinese playerbase

[eager jasper]

the helldivers are some of the most determined soldiers i've ever seen in sci-fi.

those Chinese players rock. 😄 They turned the entire tide of the fight in one go.

[meager linden]

During the battle of SE, helldivers barely hold 2 megacities, others are fall

[harsh ginkgo]

Helldivers are criminally underated in Sci-Fi VS Sci-Fi

[meager linden]

And I'm sure, SES is more for ground battle, not for sky or space

[harsh ginkgo]

Would it be fare to say the covenant at there peak had 15,000 ships

[harsh ginkgo]

Because helldivers 2 has sold 15 million copies so there are 15 million super destroyers so Super Earth outnumbers the covenant 1000/1

[meager linden]

Don't forget that some players deleted the game, and may never return back

[eager jasper]

military salute for all those that fought with us for even just 3 hours.

[harsh ginkgo]

You’re still outnumbered 1000 to 1

[eager jasper]

[harsh ginkgo]

When it comes to space battles between super earth and the covenant it’s basically gorilla vs 100 men

[winter flame]

Halo 3 has playable elites and sold 15 million copies which means 15 million Elites vs 15 million super destroyers with a +1 ship kill ratio per elite it's another Sangheili victory

[eager jasper]

WORT

[harsh ginkgo]

A helldiver could 1v1 an elite

[eager jasper]

but not all those people have classy taste and go with stupid humans instead.

[harsh ginkgo]

Id like to see an elite survive my eruptor penatrator marksmen rifle

It rips through illuminate sheilds like butter

[waxen rose]

Democracy only protects if you got the diamond plan jackal sniper protection insurance

[harsh ginkgo]

My helldiver has survived getting shot in the face by a rocket and a tank shell

[waxen rose]

Yeah but does he have jackal sniper diamond protection plan insurance though

[meager linden]

I once survived hellbomb explosion, but not hitting with stone

[harsh ginkgo]

Kat must’ve goten unlucky

[waxen rose]

Duh. She clearly didnt have jackal sniper insurance

[harsh ginkgo]

Man I just hate it when I’m watching millions of people getting atomized and a bullet from a jackal sniper punches through my skull killing me instantly

[valid portal]

I find the lore quite interesting

[waxen rose]

Should've listened to my advice about that insurance... Smh😒

[valid portal]

also I realized that both super earth and the covenant are capable of glassing planets, I think for the former?
mars on the map is looking quite bright orange

[harsh ginkgo]

The squids did that

[meager linden]

No, it's bombed, not glassed

[waxen rose]

I will glass your home tho

[harsh ginkgo]

But the devs confirmed super earth could easily end the war they just don’t for money and recourses

and that 2 factions wouldn't have existed if not for humanitys greed

It was PlayStation and Pc only. Now it’s coming to Xbox

[molten pelican]

That's fair

[empty sable]

Covenant only lost due to Halo 2

The schism

Happy Independence Day! 🇺🇸

[worldly sedge]

Happy 4th of July

[molten pelican]

Happy 4th mate, does your area put on a fireworks show?

[meager linden]

Good hot day people of Halo

[sturdy flicker]

Just finished Halo 3 last night!

[dark moat]

Nice

[covert dove]

[cinder isle]

I swear every time I get a scammer in my DMs it's either Xbox or here

[steady jolt]

We're popular targets for bots

[ocean herald]

Playing the games for the first time?

[rare cedar]

H3 is best 🙂

[stuck wind]

Grifball takes 4 mins estimated matchmaking

[empty sable]

Yea grifball doesn't seem to be too popular in infinite

[obsidian wyvern]

people finally realising that mode had always sucked?

[cinder isle]

I know we’re progressing well, but I just thought of a quick addition that could boost the end result without affecting our timeline. Want to hear it?

[empty sable]

I liked grifball in H3 and Reach

They need to bring back fat kid.

[fickle drift]

Great movie

[fickle drift]

Always hated whenever my group wanted to play that.

[ocean herald]

Duck hunt was always my favorite. In reach there was one custom we’d play that was Indiana Jones inspired, basically you’d just have to run away from the kill ball (can’t remember the name though)

[jade gust]

Indiana Jones

Or at least I'm pretty sure it was just called that

[obsidian wyvern]

i think it was called that lol

[ornate sequoia]

Atriox won't get away with what he did

Always creative with their gametype names.

[jade gust]

Indeed

[lavish hamlet]

does anyone know when the big announcement will be

[obsidian wyvern]

october

[fickle drift]

'big'

'announcement'

'october'

I mean hey I guess we'll see. Roller Coaster's due a lift-hill at some point right.

[jade gust]

Didn't they even specifically state it was gonna be October when they said a big announcement was coming

[lavish hamlet]

they probably did but I forgot and i’ll get a more valid response here than on google

plus i haven’t slept in 28 hours

[fickle drift]

It's at Worlds they're announcing something iirc.

[worldly sedge]

I wish I could go to Seattle lol

[obsidian wyvern]

chance that that Sunday is the worst Sunday this year

[fickle drift]

Do you hear those three Magnum shots in your nightmares Rev

[obsidian wyvern]

I'm always lost in those aotcr hallways

[pliant hatch]

surprised it's not guilty spark.

[molten pelican]

guilty spark is confusing as hell lol

[obsidian wyvern]

both (all 3) levels suck

[jade gust]

Try avoiding cheese, it came out recently that causes more nightmares

[viral dune]

I eat cheese every day for dinner

[limpid ferry]

The Next Halo game is going to have to be better than Halo 5 and Halo Infinite were otherwise Halo Studios could very well end up on Microsoft’s chopping block.

[granite sky]

I guess for money purposes it'll prob do well enough with launch buys. Then even if its below numbers the other projects can help

[limpid ferry]

I’m just saying Halo Studios really has no room for errors this time around.

[granite sky]

Unless its a free to play it may pain

[limpid ferry]

Is anyone going to read the new Halo Edge of Dawn novel when it releases in December?

[jade gust]

Plenty of people are excited for it

[limpid ferry]

I’ll probably just ebook it

Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday after today we’ll be just 4 days away from the next Halo Infinite Operation.

Can’t wait to get the Fotus Armor

[spice cairn]

-# happy fourth of julyyyyy

[limpid ferry]

Wonder if Halo Studios cooked up anything for the 4th today?

I really wish I’d had bought the EUnited launch day Kit 😦

It screams American pride lol

Though the visor should’ve been two toned with the left side being red and the right side being blue.

[hybrid plover]

@rare cedar what are you planning today?
Or did you have to work bc overseas!

[analog flax]

What's all of your's favourite halo games, top 5?

[silk beacon]

Happy 4th of july

[sturdy flicker]

Pretty much, copped it at GameStop for $5

[worldly venture]

Here's a hint, there isn't a 5 in its name

[meager linden]

Halo

[silk beacon]

LOL 😭

[cyan oracle]

Happy 4th

[analog flax]

Lol

[analog flax]

Fair enough

[granite sky]

infinite is up there only cuz of its forge and customs. but the customs pop has pretty bad its entire life so cant enjoy either of those to fullest extent. ive enjoyed was halo 1 and 2 the most because of co op campaigns and reach for forge customs

[normal owl]

bottom 1 is ODST hands down.

[candid solar]

In no particular order; 5, 2, Infinite, ODST, and Spartan Assault.

[analog flax]

I agree. Halo infinite is good for forge and customs. I didn't really mind the campaign of infinite too much, it just got really boring and almost repeative overtime, Reach is definitely top of the list for me, everything about it for me in my opinion was all fantastic and brilliant. I liked halo 2 and 3, I didn't see much in halo 4 (realistically, who did find halo 4 fun?) Halo 4 in my opinion was only good for some matchmaking. Halo ODST is alright.

[candid solar]

There is a soft spot in my heart for twinstick shooters like Spartan Assault. Or maybe that's just heart disease.

[analog flax]

(I won't speak of halo 5, in my opinion, nothing crazy about it)

[analog flax]

I didn't see much fun in spartan assault in my opinion, please do tell me if I'm missing out but I just found it really boring

[candid solar]

It's one of those things you need to have a taste for.

[north magnet]

Happy Independence Day everyone 🙂

[analog flax]

I see.

[analog flax]

I see your point.

[candid solar]

Am I misremembering, or is there usually an emblem for Independence day? Or am I thinking of a different holiday?

I might be thinking of Veteran's Day, actually.

[worldly venture]

Didnt answer fr but 2, Wars 1, ODST, 3, Infinite

[analog flax]

I don't see how people find halo 5 fun. I found only atleast one mission alright but that was about it

[worldly venture]

Its the only game I didnt finish funny enough lol

I dont plan on going back

[ocean herald]

5 is probably the prettiest visually but the story isn’t my favorite.

[candid solar]

The biggest reason I want a PC port for it is to turn off the blur effects and increase FOV.

Oh, and to hit 152 and nolife Firefight.

[analog flax]

Trust me, you don't want to finish it. Probaly one of the most boring endings of a halo game in my opinion

[analog flax]

Agreed, 5 is also good for visuals.

[candid solar]

🤨

The ending's fine, but okay then.

[analog flax]

I love firefight with a passion

[ocean herald]

I wish infinite had picked up right where 5 ended. Too much happened off screen between the 2 games

[candid solar]

I do wish they went with the original ending of Osiris actually failing to save Chief.

[worldly venture]

Yea i already know how it goes, and it aint pretty

Plus I dont think you get anything for finishing it on legendary for infinite

[candid solar]

Because then they'd be forced to actually acknowledge Chief's Cryptum'd state.

[worldly venture]

Thats just every 343 game ever

[candid solar]

Bungie would never.

[worldly venture]

343 has a trilogy now but every game has a villain of the week

[analog flax]

Exactly, like they didn't show the events prior to the halo 5 ending, it was just Chief on the ship fighting and then got packed up by Atroix, like, where did he even come from in the events of 5?

[worldly venture]

Why didnt you say a word to arbiter?

Books, vro books 🙏🏾

[analog flax]

Osiris in my opinion was kinda of an underrated team

[analog flax]

🙏

[analog flax]

I wish they got continued in infinite, hot take

[candid solar]

Reminder that Chief literally only says one singular thing to Arbiter in Halo 3

[worldly venture]

More than anything he said in 5..crazy

[candid solar]

They literally never got a chance to talk in 5, so it checks out.

[worldly venture]

Not a high bar to achieve since its 1 sentence less but yea

[candid solar]

And even then, not much to talk about.

[elfin quail]

Hiiii

[silk beacon]

Heyoo

[elfin quail]

How r u doin??

[ocean herald]

4 & 5 had some good characters that were totally absent from Infinite that didn’t make sense. I think they were slightly referenced in audio logs but that’s it

[analog flax]

In my opinion, one of the most goated duos oat

[candid solar]

"Chief and Thel" being friends always came across as disingenuous and a stretch to me. They have nothing in common beyond what they killed and fought. It's unearned.

[worldly venture]

Chief didnt say a thing in the ending of 5 when he met up with them at the camp. That whole scene was awkward

[silk beacon]

Decent, enjoying 4th of july morning, what about urself?

[candid solar]

Why would he?

[worldly venture]

Yea, sucks there isn't any physicality tho

[elfin quail]

Me? Well Im doing good

[analog flax]

Chief literally watched his AI Girlfriend turn evil, why would he say anything? That guy be grieving over his loss 🙏

[worldly venture]

True

[elfin quail]

I’m on my favourite city, enjoying the fresh air

[worldly venture]

2 times in a row..he goin through it

3 really 😭

[silk beacon]

Glad to hear it.

[analog flax]

Bro need to be sat down and talked to

[worldly venture]

Think that's what they did in the book, tho I wouldnt know, I dont read em

[analog flax]

"Hey Chief, are you alright recently?"

Chief: "Cortana.."

[normal owl]

Lonely, emotionally stunted guy with an AI girlfriend? Arbiter was right to not trade cell phone numbers with him.

[elfin quail]

Lmao

[candid solar]

Just giving Chief the uncomfortable side-eye and walking away

[normal owl]

avoiding the "I don't wanna trauma-dump but...[proceeds to trauma-dump]".

[silk beacon]

LOL

[elfin quail]

Guys do you imagine that the combat evolved

[analog flax]

😂😂, Chief is just Chief

[analog flax]

"Cortana was my everything..unfortunately those days are over for us now.."

Watch him get attached to Weapon now, in the new halo game he'll be attached to Weapon instead

[elfin quail]

Lollllll

[analog flax]

You haven't been through real pain if you aren't Chief

[hexed geyser]

my mii has gone through worse

[elfin quail]

Btw one of my favourite things in halo are the human warships

They look really good

[normal owl]

Estate plan drafting complete. Time to party like it's July 4th! 🇺🇸

[elfin quail]

Lol

I don’t celebrate it since I’m from Argentina lmao

But happy 4th of July

[hybrid plover]

i have a question

[elfin quail]

Yeah?

[hybrid plover]

there a lot of germans over there?

[elfin quail]

Well, lots of German people, italian people and Spanish people (from Spain)

[hybrid plover]

a lot of germans who came around 1945?

[elfin quail]

I won’t get further in to that.

[hybrid plover]

fair i’m just curious lol

[elfin quail]

No, I understand it’s just for other people

Yk I don’t wanna offend someone

[balmy dune]

Hes attached to his MA5B now

[meager linden]

Good helldivers night people of Halo

[elder hedge]

Happy 4th of July everyone

[frozen snow]

what on earth am i reading

[spice chasm]

Halo bread cuz yes

[zinc carbon]

I'm gonna ask this question because I'm somewhat worried about it

Should we be worried about Halo?

Perfect Dark was cancelled by Microsoft, and I'm worried if they'll one day cancel all of Halo projects and end the franchise.

One project isn't going well in Halo Studios. Will that lead the franchise to its end if the game is actually bad?

And lastly, will they actually use AI? Like AI art and stuff like that

Should I still be excited for Halo?

[meager linden]

Yes

[covert dove]

[candid solar]

[elder forge]

Heyo

Lebran, weren't you already directed to the LFG channels?

clearly not Lebrain

[obsidian wyvern]

I got to yeet one across the store at work today, 10/10

wait there was no hidden meaning behind this, didn't read the second part lol

[stark eagle]

Swedish blue shark is called blåhaj

[hybrid plover]

swedish fish

[drowsy coyote]

UK version of the fourth is what

[pliant hatch]

I had some recently, but I think I had some nostalgia cause they weren't as good as I remembered as a kid.

[hybrid plover]

i’ve heard they’re basically red sour patch kids without the sour

[rustic cradle]

anyone ready to dive feet first into hell on those squids in helldivers 2 on aug 26?.

[candid solar]

No, I refuse to squid dive.

I only botdive from now on. I will only ever botdive.

[jade gust]

The UK doesn't have an Independence Day because it's the primary reason for why Independence Days exist in the first place

[safe dawn]

Fun fact: most countries have an independence day, and most of those are from the UK

[meager linden]

Same, we have enough squids on SE
But at the moment, bugs, I hate them on 10 difficulty

[candid solar]

Amusingly, the Phillipines celebrated the 4th of July until 1961... Because it was liberated from the United States. (The date was changed to June 12th to coincide with Emilio Aguinaldo's declaration of independence from Spain in 1898 after the Treaty of Paris).

[safe dawn]

Huh, didn't know that

Also the first edit gave me a trip lol

[candid solar]

I'd bet actual money most Americans don't even know that the US and Spain went to war.

[safe dawn]

I would take that bet

[candid solar]

IIRC something to the tune of 60% don't even know why we seceded from Britain anymore. Like, what?

[safe dawn]

Because I can say right now 90% of my friends don't know that (the US vs. Spain stuff)

[safe dawn]

what?

Bro what are we even teaching in school now

[meager linden]

Politics, how tiresome

[candid solar]

This isn't politics, this is humanities.

[safe dawn]

It's actually history, not political history for once

[candid solar]

Specifically, History teaching being disliked and underutilized.

I had to explain to an Airman a few years back that Afghanistan was invaded by Russia during the Cold War and she had zero idea. And I think that was the first time I really realized 'wow, people really just do not learn jack from history classes'.

[safe dawn]

Bro my history classes don't even touch the cold war

[candid solar]

I took as many history classes as I could because I actually tended to enjoy the classes.

[safe dawn]

They only really go up to WWII, and then its still iffy
