[silver yoke]

its been 5 hours and his dads facebook is inactive i cant find any of his social medias and all i know is that he had halo discord the entire time we were dating

[blazing cave]

What was Cody’s favorite Halo tho?

[silver yoke]

the girl in ur pfp

[zinc bear]

Cortana isn’t a halo game

[coral yoke]

there is also every chance he might've changed his screen name within those three years.

[silver yoke]

i dont know

[blazing cave]

Dang man, you don’t know his favorite Halo 😔💔

[silver yoke]

i dont know bro this was like a last ditch effort

[coral yoke]

it is if you're brave enough

[blazing cave]

Just move on, just like Chief did 😔

[raven fiber]

My favorite halo is that canceled one

[zinc bear]

Halo online?

[silver yoke]

only family he had was his dad

[raven fiber]

Yea

[blazing cave]

Cody is probably playing Halo with his dad

[silver yoke]

his dad’s facebook is inactive and he didnt like me anyways

[rare cedar]

Let’s not encourage him, plz

[silver yoke]

him?

[rare cedar]

Sorry, I’m only going off of your pfp

[silver yoke]

the guy in my pfp is an inside joke 😭

[raven fiber]

1v1 me on bog on cod4

[zinc bear]

Going to a call of duty discord is the better choice than asking in a halo server.

[blazing cave]

You know what I think you should do

YOU should go play Halo

[raven fiber]

I’m banned on their official discord

[silver yoke]

but he didnt like call of duty only halo

[zinc bear]

I’m not talking to you

[silver yoke]

no i loved cody but he was nerdy i couldnt ever get into it

[blazing cave]

What a jerk lol

[zinc bear]

Xbox lfg’s are your only chance 💔

[coral yoke]

if halo is anything like cod-

oh wait.

[blazing cave]

I’m jk ❤️

[silver yoke]

nothing wrong with being nerdy he must have been doing something right if im trying to find him years later

i never had his phone number because when i met him i didnt have a phone i was in a group home

[raven fiber]

All I did was call out the discord mods for their behavior

And they banned me

[zinc bear]

Sounds a little harsh. But maybe we shouldn’t discuss another servers moderation in the halo server, yeah?

[raven fiber]

Ok fine let’s change the subject

When will they add multi-team

[zinc bear]

Halo online 2 when (it’s completely unnecessary)

[raven fiber]

I don’t like having to go to the original games for multi-team

[zinc bear]

Thank you, footedpanda-san ❤️ I will soon become an admin

[zinc bear]

Multi team was very fun. Maybe customs can bring it back

[zinc bear]

I just want halo 7 to have a mode similar to war zone from halo 5

[raven fiber]

And bring back trueskill

[zinc bear]

What’s trueskill again?

Ok ❤️❤️❤️

[silver yoke]

@rare cedar ngl i was stalking your twitter and YOU’RE A US ARMY VETERAN??????

[junior kestrel]

Titanfall is in our dna

Shutsdown Titanfall 1.

Doesn't announce any new Titanfall projects.

Adds ash into Apex.

All of which everyone hated.

[junior kestrel]

Another thing

We need more hunter encounters. Less spungy. More balanced

Actually. If it's possible. Make different hunter ranks that can help develop more interesting hunter encounters. As far as infinite goes theres only like 2 required hunter encounters

I got 3 main ranks in mind.

Beamers, blue. Bombers, gold. Heavy hunters, large

[zinc bear]

what are you talking about bro 😭

titanfall 1 wasnt shut down

[junior kestrel]

It... it wasn't.

I've been decieved

[knotty swift]

On a different note, titanfall 2 is up there alongside halo as a peak game

#kraber4life

[knotty swift]

I meannnnnn odst has gold hunters. But they barely count.

Pretty much the exact same to fight

[junior kestrel]

Ik.

But... the gold have fuel rod instead of micro scarab beams

[knotty swift]

Eh. Just as avoidable

Just makes them a little tiny bit more like reach or ce's hunters

[zinc bear]

do some research before blindly hating lol

titanfall 1 servers are up on everything. i still get matches for the xbox 360 version. highly recommend you play it, its better than tf2.

[junior kestrel]

I don't have an xbox anymore. Just pc.

[zinc bear]

you can still get it

[rare cedar]

I’m currently serving

[junior kestrel]

I think it'd be a ton of fun to have a 50 cal smg based on the one seen in Digsite.

[jade gust]

I don't think the SMG seen in Digsite was using 50 calibre rounds

[zinc bear]

the recoil would be across the universe lol

[lethal niche]

just curious can you buy the spartan points or whatever its called with real money?

[zinc bear]

yes

buy the credits first, then buy spartan points with credits.

[lethal niche]

ouuu okay, thank you kind sir

[zinc bear]

yw

[lethal niche]

i just got back into it n i want my gear back from reach lol

[zinc bear]

buy the heros of reach pass. itll give you (almost) everything you need.

[lethal niche]

i can find that in the store?

[zinc bear]

no, go to the battle pass section. its the first one that was released.

[lethal niche]

ohh okay

[lethal niche]

sorry, where do i go to buy the credits? cs its not giving me an option to buy the pass

[zinc bear]

go to store, and there should be a button at the bottom left that says "buy credits". click whatever it tells you to click and then you can buy them.

[junior kestrel]

I have something to comment on Halo infinite rq

[zinc bear]

oh god

[junior kestrel]

I am of the mind that it would have seriously benefited from a Binoc zoom, in conjunction with the combat zoom.

Especally given the distances of the open worlds. It's often more fun to scout out organically without using the tac map.

It'd also be great to have if you don't have a sniper of any kind

[lethal niche]

man, im sorry where can i find the store lol im not seeing anything on my end

[zinc bear]

wait, are you on halo infinite?

[lethal niche]

oh no im on mcc

should i be on infinite instead?

[zinc bear]

OHH im sorry lol you said spartan points which is a halo infinite thing so thats why i assumed you were on halo infinite. no, you cant buy the spartan points (i forgot the name too) with real money. you just gotta grind challenges.

[lethal niche]

ahhh okay, yeah i said spartan points cs thats what it says here. my friends n i got mcc cs of reach

unless i can play reach thru infinite? lol

[zinc bear]

no lolol infinite is its standalone game

[lethal niche]

well rip lol thanks anyways man

[zinc bear]

youre welcome lol yeah i wish you could just buy stuff on mcc. the grinding is cool and all, but it gets annoying sometimes lol.

[lethal niche]

i feel that, also wish the games were still all seperate lol

[zinc bear]

the games being in one launcher is cool but i miss my classic menus

[lethal niche]

exactly my thought lol

[raven fiber]

Training for global elite

Day 4

[junior kestrel]

Any thoughts on my idea?

[zinc bear]

yeah its cool ig

[junior kestrel]

I'd prolly asign down on the Dpad for it.

Or put it in a rotary stick select menu opened with the Dpad.

And the binoc zoom will now be able to be zoomed in from x1-10 or smt

You have any personal suggestions or adjustments?

[zinc bear]

delete halo reach

its honestly hard for me to think of a suggestion or an adjustment. everything that bothered me was already fixed.

i mean, i feel like the only thing i want in halo infinite is for the open world to be bigger and filled with more side quests, stranger missions, etc etc. but its too late for that.

[junior kestrel]

It'd be another matter if Halo studios made Campaign evovled with modding in mind.

Like bungie did with the original.

[jade gust]

Bungie didn't make Combat Evolved with modders in mind. It did get Custom Edition for PC, but that wasn't because Bungie intended for the game to be modded originally

[junior kestrel]

Okay but bungie literally intended it to be modded before the microsoft deal.

From what I know at least.

So, they didn't make halo, the xbox version, for modders, but they had at one point.

[jade gust]

And you heard this from where?

[tepid aurora]

Someone coach me to onyx

Tell me what I’m doing wrong😪

[signal wedge]

shoot

[lime breach]

Bonjour à tous, j’ai une question à vous poser, je voudrais donner une idée pour le jeu hallo sauf que je ne sais pas où aller leur envoyer mon idée. Savez-vous où je pourrais envoyer mon idée pour le jeu allo s’il vous plaît ?

[tepid aurora]

R u an onyx

[signal wedge]

Maybe

[tepid aurora]

Can u help me

[signal wedge]

no can do. Im not an onyx

[junior kestrel]

It was a while ago.

It may have been from hidden x.

[pulsar heron]

bonjour! desolée mais c'est chat de anglophone. mon français c'est mal aussi ):

unfortunately, this server is english-speaking only. to answer your question: you can post your game idea in english at #1076337363770417172 ! merci beaucoup

[jade gust]

Bonjour ! Ce serveur est principalement en anglais. Si vous avez une idée pour un jeu Halo, je vous recommande de créer un sujet dans le canal #1076337363770417172.

Notez que le sujet devra être en anglais, conformément aux règles du serveur.

I see me and Tora had the same idea

[pulsar heron]

sniped

[jade gust]

Aye, but always nice to try and help guide people

[pulsar heron]

true that

i like to stretch my french gcse muscles every once in a while

[jade gust]

Aye, fair. I admittedly used a translator to come up with my response

[pulsar heron]

yours was far more professional than mine so i think we're even stevens

[jade gust]

Fair

Well, back to me figuring out a mysterious phantom payment I did at 3:58am because I was definitely asleep when it happened and I am concerned about it

[pulsar heron]

oof. service you pay for perhaps?

[brave prairie]

I hope they have flights for campaign evolved. I really want to try it out

[junior kestrel]

Take it with a grain of salt.

[jade gust]

Not likely, it's from an account I don't pay for services from

[junior kestrel]

If I find something concrete I'll bring it back.

[jade gust]

Like at most it'd be for my base Xbox Live (Gamepass? Whatever it's called) but that's not due until a few months from now

[pulsar heron]

oh yikes

[jade gust]

Yeah

The payment should be cancelled in 3 days (According to the person I just spoke with) but I do have to wonder what it was that caused it to happen in the first place

[onyx oasis]

Do people still do like, mil sims and halo rps and all that hooplah

[signal wedge]

yes

I bought tarkov

[obsidian wyvern]

hope you get better soon

[rare cedar]

Haven’t seen an “out BR” moment in here in a while

[cerulean grotto]

Hi

[signal wedge]

😔

I am bouncing between 3 extraction shooters atp

[pulsar heron]

ive honestly had so many. the regulars are keeping pace with me its freaky

[pulsar heron]

can you log into like. the storefront it was from and investigate from there? i do know that there have been a few large-ish (mostly repeated) data breaches and password dumps lately... might be a good time for a password reset

[pulsar heron]

yeah, take a peek in #1076334026090094602 - there's a fair chunk of em

[jade gust]

I did more digging, turns out it was a preorder payment finally leaving my account so I was concerned for no reason

[pulsar heron]

oh lol

[junior kestrel]

I wish more games came with physical manuals.

[lethal niche]

just to confirm

infinite is free on steam? the campaign has to be paid for right?

[pulsar heron]

infinite's multiplayer is free, it's campaign is paid

[lethal niche]

okay thank you

[pulsar heron]

same, the best part about buying a new game has always been sitting on the bus home reading through the manual

[lethal niche]

is there still halo esports?

[meager linden]

Good day people of Halo
How it's going?

[jade gust]

Yeah, I'm glad I figured it out because it would've been awkward

[pulsar heron]

the "official" tournaments under the HCS name are finished for now, but not forever. there are still smaller/unofficial tournaments likely to be taking place though

[pulsar heron]

good day wade! i hope you are well

sorry for the ping 😅

[meager linden]

Yeah, I'm good

[noble solar]

Do people still play Halo infinite in Asia??
I couldn't find a match in my region

[signal wedge]

Game is dead in Asia

[rare cedar]

It’s tough at this hour

The only Time I find games is in the early morning

[junior kestrel]

I got some ideas on how to improve the unsc weapons sandbox.

Ma5 Ar: 32 rounds. Damage per shot is the same as the br, no headshot priority but if you make it, it's a one shot kill.

Ma5 carbine: 30 round mag. Same damage, higher firerate but way less accurately.

Br: no changes to current version, maybe more generous aim assist.

Dmr: orient it specifcally a near sniper role, 3 shots to kill. Lots of vertical recoil, keep it to 10 rounds in the mag.

Combat rifle: (vk78) it's now specifcally a mid range assault rifle. Head shot priority, no scope. Very very mean, highest damage of the automatic rifles.

Magnum: 7 rounds per mag on standard, 3 shot kill. Close range only. Full auto enabled.

Combat shotgun: 8 rounds per tube mag, massive damage even at over 10 meter range, harrassing gun.

Assault shotgun: (bulldog) 25 round drum magazine, moderate damage per shot, high rate of fire. High recoil.

Pocket shotgun: side by side double barrel shotgun pistol, fast load, no range, dual wieldable ideally.

Smg: unchanged from halo 5 mostly.

Sniper rifle: unchanged.

Rocket launcher: hold fire to lock on to vehicles.

40mm grenade launcher: just the thing from reach except zoom button switches the grenades to emp mode.

30 mm MGL: 4 round magazine, direct impact explosives. Basically a brute shot with no bounce.

Lmg: 100 round box magazine, if reserve ammo is below the 100 round threshold when reloading it will reload as 50 round belts.

Composite sword, basically a unsc energy sword mechanically. Gets shorter and shorter after every successful swing.

[rare cedar]

Or if I catch a taxi from a friend

[signal wedge]

WhatsApp Unc

[junior kestrel]

Forgive the long post. I am braining rn.

[meager linden]

Hello there
What's your progress at AC6?

[signal wedge]

Discord is bugging

[junior kestrel]

Sorry.

[meager linden]

Sometimes discord sending me pings, sometimes not
So I could miss my ping

Or I can watch my ping through the notifications tab

[molten pelican]

Been out of town all week, end of chapter 1

[meager linden]

So...
You finally met the Coral waifu?

[molten pelican]

wait no, not end of chapter 1 I think I have one mission left

killed the juggernaut with rusty

[meager linden]

It's away long to end of chapter 1

So, good luck

[molten pelican]

I don't know what I'm talking about yeah lol

[jade gust]

Define "headshot priority"? Because it sounds like you think some weapons have projectiles which automatically go for the head, which has never been the case with any weapon in Halo. You actually have to aim for the head if you want a headshot

Also the Halo 5 SMG would be horrid to use if everything was changed about the other non-power weapons to function like your suggestions

Like, why pick up an SMG if an AR can bring down shields as fast as a BR and kill much faster by virtue of all its shots doing the same amount of damage as a BR's shots? Why pick an SMG when there's a DMR which can kill you in three shots at long range

[noble solar]

Got it
I'll look for matches in the morning

[steady jolt]

Can we keep this kind of stuff to the #1076337363770417172 forum please? Discussion are fine, but not dropping massive walls of text.

It's just going to get buried here before you can have any meaningful conversation

[haughty loom]

I get where you're coming from, but that take isn’t necessarily true.
Eneba isn’t some lawless digital bazaar teeming with stolen credit cards and code-smugglers.
It’s a grey-market platform, sure, but the overwhelming majority of sellers on there are totally legitimate and operate within the actual boundaries of how global pricing works.
A lot of those “too good to be true” deals, like Halo Infinite credits going for pocket change, are just region-priced keys being resold from countries where the cost is naturally lower.
It's not some criminal conspiracy; it's basic economics wearing a trench coat.
Painting Eneba as a radioactive danger zone on the same level as the old-school G2A horror stories is a bit of a stretch.
Is it perfect? Of course not.
But calling it universally sketchy is like declaring every garage sale a front for international art theft.
Most of the marketplace is safe, regulated by Eneba’s own protections, and far from the digital dystopia you’re describing.

[worldly sedge]

I’m only tier 32 so far in the Operation

[steady jolt]

Feel free to hop over to the Xbox Discord and ask anyone there, you'll get the same answer - which comes for the countless people we've dealt with who have been caught out

I can't stop people from using the service, but I'm not going to stop advising people against using them

[hearty flame]

I totally understand the idea that something cheaper feels better, but me personally, 90% of the time I don't mind paying somewhat more money to know I'm getting it securely, a legit copy, and the customer service behind it with a limited return window

Also fully supporting the devs as they deserve without abusing the economic status of another region or country

[crude jay]

Arent the eneba codes bought and just resold?

[haughty loom]

I get the caution, but “everyone in the Xbox Discord says so” isn’t exactly the ironclad evidence it’s being treated as.
Community anecdotes don’t magically turn into universal truths, especially when half the horror stories get recycled from the old G2A boogeyman days like ghost stories around a campfire.
Eneba today runs on a totally different system:
verified sellers, automated fraud filters, region-lock checks, and an actual refund framework, which already puts it miles ahead of what G2A used to be.
And the whole “stolen codes” narrative usually ignores the main reality:
most of these cheap keys are just region-priced products from countries where digital goods cost less.
It’s arbitrage, not Ocean’s Eleven.
On top of that, if Eneba were truly a radioactive wasteland of fraud, Microsoft and every major payment processor would’ve nuked them out of orbit years ago.
Those companies do not play around with fraud.
The platform is still fully operational and under constant scrutiny, which should tell you something.
And speaking personally, I’ve had a long, healthy friendship with grey markets.
I’ve bought from Eneba, Driffle, Kinguin, you name it, for years.
I’ve rarely run into issues, and the few times something did go sideways, support handled it within a couple of days max.
Not exactly the lawless wasteland people make it out to be.
I’m not saying nobody can ever get burned, that’s true for literally any digital marketplace on Earth, but the blanket “Eneba is always sketchy, avoid at all costs” take oversimplifies everything to the point of fear-mongering.
The reality is way more nuanced than the doomsday narrative being painted here.

[steady jolt]

Ok

[haughty loom]

Guess it's 1-0 then.

[steady jolt]

More, it's Sunday, I'm ill, and you dumped a wall of text on me from a 5 day old comment. I don't have anything else to add

[haughty loom]

No worries, rest up.

Scoreboard still says 1–0 though...

[steady jolt]

I honestly don't care 😂

I'm not keeping score

[severe zinc]

Hii

And omg its insane
The first mission which is POA took like 20 mins and still not done

[haughty loom]

Better then Halo Infinite and Halo 4, 5 combined??

[waxen rose]

Holy yapatron

[waxen rose]

In other news
20th anniversary to xbox 360

[coral yoke]

huh. this close to thanksgiving?

[waxen rose]

Eat your xbox for Thanksgiving
Turkeys are off the menu

[coral yoke]

can't see the difference there

[silver arch]

Knowing Microsoft's whole 100% ai usage goal and how the development and subsequent failure of blops 7 has been going, I'm a bit worried for the CE remake as well as any future projects halo studios has in store.

[meager linden]

Good sleepy evening people of Halo

[silver arch]

Good time zone to you as well

[silver arch]

Virtually all of blops 7 was AI generated, down to a T. I genuinely hope the supposed use of generative AI in the remake is limited rather than exclusively used. I have to imagine it likely won't be nearly as bad as it was with blops 7, but it's still concerning. Even then, while the remake might not be using much AI, what of their future games? The future of Halo (and gaming as a whole) is pretty bleak.. I really hope the AI bubble pops sooner rather than later

[waxen rose]

This ai bubble needs to pop
NOW!

[silver arch]

Frfr

[cerulean grotto]

Hi

[steady jolt]

That's just straight up not true. AI was used in various tooling pipelines, as it was for Blops6, but they didn't build the entire game using AI

[crimson adder]

halo rich))))tuntuntunsondondonNEGATIV SIR I HAVE THE GAN

[trim saddle]

I really do enjoy playing halo. This is such a wonderful series at any point in time.

[jade gust]

It should be noted that any attempt to make games purely through generative AI has never resulted in anything playable in the first place. I am 100% on board with wanting the AI bubble to burst, but it's never going to replace actual game devs by virtue of it just not even being able to do most of what you need

Like, absolutely call out AI generated stuff in games, but like, don't make broad stroke claims that entire games were AI generated because it's not good

[steady jolt]

AI is good for tooling, processing, task management, but is absolutely nowhere near ready to start writing entire games worth of code

I asked it to help me fix an issue with a loop, and it removed the loop 🙃

[analog knot]

AI is a tool in a toolbox, like any tool it can be used improperly. Its not a replacement for a person as much as people want it to be. Its been developed to the point that its a solution looking for a problem, so now we will watch entire industries work backwards to figure out where to stick it - some will suceed, many will fail, until the next "innovation"

And the cycle of capitalism will continue again with the next issue

[blazing cave]

Use AI to proofread sometimes 👀

[coral yoke]

task failed successfully.

it was just too far gone ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[silver arch]

From my understanding, everything outside basic game development utilized AI. The designs, artwork, animations, and writing were all mostly done with AI. This is for 7, not 6. 6 was made before Microsoft stepped in with the whole AI first mantra. I'm fairly certain one of the people involved admitted they referred to chatGPT to write the story and design the levels and missions.

As for Halo, I just remember seeing somewhere that they said they had been utilizing generative AI for the remake. I'm not opposed to its usage if it was assistive, AI is great for that

[steady jolt]

https://www.gamespot.com/articles/black-ops-7-developers-used-ai-tools-but-creative-process-is-led-by-humans-activision-says/1100-6536232/

[silver arch]

Yeah I'm not going to take Activision's word for it. Sorry. "There is no AI in Ba Sing Se"

[coral yoke]

i remember a rumor going around that halo studios would start using ai to some extreme(?) for future halo games. turned out to be false.

[steady jolt]

Do you any sources to confirm your "pretty sure someone admitted this"?

[silver arch]

The title cards are the most obvious use of it for sure. They definitely couldn't use AI for everything as you need humans to correct it, so I apologize for my hyperbolic wording, but they are definitely trying to use as few humans as possible

[pliant hatch]

don't worry, in 10-20 years ai will make all the games cause work will be optional.

[silver arch]

Why do I need to source it when they have stated that they used AI themselves? Chatgpt is part of that "tooling" too

[coral yoke]

i'm convinced that ai will perpetually be too stupid to make that a reality.

[steady jolt]

You made claim that the entire game was made using AI and someone admitted it. I provide evidence to the contrary. If you can't back up your claims, don't make them. We don't allow spreading misinformation

Burden of proof is on you

[silver arch]

I conceded and apologized for my inflammatory/hyperbolic wording, you're right that I should have backed up what I had heard. That being said, I am not going to take a multi billion dollar company's word when they say they didn't use AI to replace people.

The game looks horrible, the writing makes zero sense (granted this is just modern CoD now), and above all else the art is 100% all AI generated. So they are replacing people, they're replacing artists. It's not hard to imagine that they would have started to replace more people to save more money

[trim saddle]

Halo is so fun to play.

[steady jolt]

Are you just guessing about the art again, or was this posted somewhere ?

[silver arch]

Really? Just look at the title cards

[pliant hatch]

I apologize, now let me double down real quick.

[silver arch]

Most of them are clearly AI generated. None of the details are consistent, hands have extra fingers, so on so forth

[steady jolt]

That isn't proof that 100% of the art was made using AI

[silver arch]

It's hard to believe that it wasn't, this is a billion dollar corporation we're talking about. It may not be proof, but I'm not going to give them the benefit of the doubt. Even if it isn't 100%, they shouldn't have used ANY AI for the art. They should pay real artists. Not destroy the environment and leave real artists in the dark

[light shell]

hello

Uh

why is my name rewrite?

[pliant hatch]

the bot rewrote it

[light shell]

Fixed it

[hearty flame]

Well it rewrote it

[light shell]

Soo

hows been yalls days

Atleast Its thanksgiving break

[hearty flame]

Actually, there is proof, because Greg Hermann admitted to them using it where they see fit Oh we were talking about CoD

In which case, yes, the art in the game is generated using AI in some cases. It says it right on the tin on Steam, actually. Not all of it like the other user claims.

[silver arch]

I don't get my thanksgiving vacay for another few days

[winter comet]

Does anyone know if you can get multiplayer achievements in customs

[light shell]

oh well once it gets there i hope you have a great time

[silver arch]

In MCC? I'm pretty sure that's how I got a lot of my achievements

[trim saddle]

Not yet lol I work 3 days this week and then a break.

[silver arch]

Same

[light shell]

dang

[silver arch]

I can't wait for winter shutdown at my job

[light shell]

Yall have jobs?

[winter comet]

That would be good then cause I can never find games for reach or halo 2 in my region

[light shell]

im a hella fresh men

in high school

[steady jolt]

Think I'm calling in sick again tomorrow

[faint mantle]

For realsies? Or to do something?

[faint mantle]

Ño
I still need my human job 🥺

[coral yoke]

i can understand h2 but reach? that should be one of the most populated ones next to h3.

[silver arch]

It took me a minute to find halo 2 games too sometimes

[hearty flame]

Halo was actually a pioneer in NPC AI but some of you guys aren't ready to hear that

[waxen rose]

I was thinking about a different kind of ai

I love my halo marines

[bright shoal]

as all halo players with a heart do

though I will admit, sometimes the voices get to me and I kill one from time to time 🥹

[waxen rose]

If one marine dies you must restart the mission
Its the rule

[waxen rose]

WHAT

[bright shoal]

I named an ODST in halo 2 Jeremy

he solo'd the wraith on that mission where you have to activate a bridge to get across to the otherside to get to regret

[pliant hatch]

did jeremy speak to you

[waxen rose]

The voices (Jeremy)

[bright shoal]

no, he just drove pretty good

[trim saddle]

Is Jeremy in the room with us right now?

[bright shoal]

no he's trapped in halo 2 limbo

[waxen rose]

Thank goodness it's not a h3 limbo

[trim saddle]

Limbo is fun, never thought to use a halo 2 version.

[bright shoal]

I named one of the odst's in halo 3 ballz

he got too ballsy and blew up 3 times

[waxen rose]

https://tenor.com/view/ghost-halloween-song-gif-12102675640598705358

[trim saddle]

Mike Hughes, and that last name.

[bright shoal]

I get it

[naive turret]

https://tenor.com/view/jeremy-smiling-friends-smiling-friends-jeremy-jeremy-smiling-friends-gif-24463964

[waxen rose]

Charlie gave Jeremy a clear warning and he didnt listen

This is all Jeremy’s fault

[left sage]

hayl,o

[silver arch]

Gave a female marine a rocket launcher in halo 3 on the ark mission and she basically carried me for the better part of the mission (on legendary no less)

[meager linden]

Good night people of Halo

[silver arch]

She may or may not have killed us or gotten us killed multiple times, but we made it eventually

She met her demise at the hands of the scarab towards the end. She gave it hell in a tank till the bitter end. I carried her launcher to the end of the mission too.

[silver arch]

Gnight

[placid tree]

lol so they’re giving the Warthog Nitro?

[silver arch]

Huh?

How would that work in a hydrogen powered motor anyway

[placid tree]

Well I’m being figurative but

[silver arch]

Nah I meant that as a general question, I was more confused about what you had said, my first time hearing about it

[winter comet]

Is there anyone that can quickly jump into a custom game with me just to get a really easy and fast achievement? (kills someone with a sniper on halo 2 anniversary while they are scoped in)

[silver arch]

Ohh you're having trouble finding games for halo2A, yeah that's not as popular as the OG

[placid tree]

Just an online tweet about how Halo Campaign Evolved will give the Warthog a boost but it’s just a joke…At least I hope it’s a joke lol

I assumed it was a joke

[winter comet]

I'm in australia and I can only find games for 4v4 or 8v8 and it's mostly halo 3

I hate it sm cause I like big team battle and can never find a btb game

[silver arch]

I wouldn't care if it did as long as they had a good lore justification for it having a boost of some sort

[winter comet]

Halo 1 does not need a remake

[steady jolt]

For real. I was ill towards the end of last week, but had a gig booked for Friday and the cinema on Saturday. Absolutely broken today 😩

[winter comet]

I don't think any halo needs a remake tbh

[silver arch]

I don't really care either way as long as it's good and tries to be faithful. I would rather see a sequel or cool new spin off game, but it's whatever really.

[placid tree]

We don’t need to go down that road lol

[pliant hatch]

a bit late for that

[winter comet]

I finally started reading the halo books. I started a few years back but forgot to continue the first book so starting it from the beginning

With an audiobook to accompany it cause the audiobook is pretty good too

[silver arch]

I need to read all of the books finally. Only read like one or two and that was years ago

[winter comet]

IT would be cool if they just made games from the books instead of this fanfic crap 343 is doing

spartan boot camp from the first book would be a cool level

[pliant hatch]

what are they using as fanfic?

[winter comet]

Well halo 5 bastardised blue team and some othetr things

I forget exactly

[pliant hatch]

so the fans made blue team terrible?

[winter comet]

You misunderstand, I mean 343 writers are making fanfic of what halo should be

[candid solar]

"Fanfic crap"

God, I wish people would hear themselves just once. Just to hear how goofy they sound.

[winter comet]

Elaborate

[candid solar]

I'm sure the person who forgets things about 5 has a fully cohesive and solvent understanding of 5.

[winter comet]

Well it is quite forgettable so you got me there

[candid solar]

Nah, people just skip cutscenes and listen to youtubers who have a buck to make by being profoundly faux-critical and negative.

[silver arch]

It feels like everyday this same tired arguement comes up

[winter comet]

I never skip cutscenes unless im speedrunning

[candid solar]

Riiight.

[winter comet]

I've never played halo 5 I watched a longplay tho

[candid tusk]

That's a pretty big skip.

[candid solar]

You are not helping your point dude.

[winter comet]

and they make those bucks because they are right

[pliant hatch]

I think fanfic is the wrong description to use.

[silver arch]

If I had a dollar for every time someone got nostalgic and biter towards the new halo games, I'd have quite a bit of money

[candid solar]

... That's certainly an interpretation.

[winter comet]

If those youtubers were talking nonsense they wouldnt have those views

[candid solar]

Not a right one, but it's certainly an interpretation.

[candid solar]

That's literally, objectively, demonstrably false.

[winter comet]

Maybe in politics

[candid solar]

Everything is Politics.

[winter comet]

Explain why halo 5 writing is so great and all the droves of people who think it sucks are wrong

Cause you'll find way more people hate it than like it

[candid tusk]

I need a poll of every Halo player of all time. Stat.

[hasty zinc]

can we skip the parts where everyone fights and then it gets personal and then we have to say "let's not do this"

[winter comet]

How many times are we gonna have to go on a cortana quest

[pliant hatch]

you underestimate what people are willing to watch/believe then.

[candid solar]

Way more people thought that it was bad to wash hands before surgery at one point. Are you saying they were right?

[winter comet]

I thought cortana quest was done with 5 and I was so hopeful for infinite but nope it's another cortana quest

[winter comet]

Completely different point

[candid tusk]

Halo Infinite was a power seed quest.

[candid solar]

Actually the same point. Great swaths of people can be wrong and it's a horrible metric to judge a thing by.

[winter comet]

I completely agree with you but this not the same

[candid solar]

It's literally the same lmao

[candid tusk]

Opossum, what's your favorite Toonami show?

[candid solar]

You used an Ad Populum fallacy to argue a point, congrats, it got called out as being a fallacy

[candid tusk]

Yellow Card: Fallacy Fallacy in play.

[winter comet]

Well you're american. i rest my case.

[candid solar]

Oookay then.

[winter comet]

Aren't they a publisher. I'll have to look at the list but probably OG dragon ball

[candid tusk]

Toonami was a programing block on cartoon network/adult swim.

[winter comet]

Not in australia but we had the same shows only it was Madman Entertainment

[candid tusk]

OG Dragon ball is great. Kinda sad how many characters from that series never made it into further DB runs.

[winter comet]

Creator of dragon ball was very forgetful. His editors constantly had to remind him that characters existed or transformations

[candid tusk]

TRUE. Which is kind of great in an endearing elder way.

[winter comet]

He forgot about super saiyan 2 a lot which is why you rarely hear about it after gohans

[trim saddle]

Anyone else pretty far in the operation?

[candid solar]

32 tiers in so far

I really just want the Adamant Helmet rn

[trim saddle]

I just got 47 and taking a break to eat lol

[winter comet]

Havent played much multi so barely done the normal track

[candid solar]

I'm currently choosing to write out my theories for what different Banished Jannissarie helmets are made for.

[silver arch]

Well I want to play more today, but I'm getting ping so bad the game is virtuably unplayable right now

[candid solar]

Like a nerd.

[silver arch]

I have zero clue what's going on because steam severs are fine and my internet seems to be fine too

[winter comet]

bad host or too many vpn players

Potentially both

[silver arch]

Going to explode if it just paired me with someone from europe. No shade to europeans, but god I do not need 140 ping in every game

[winter comet]

Cause gaming sucks in australia we normally have to settle with 250-300 ping to play on populated servers

[trim saddle]

I was playing in Asia servers.. ping was 220 lol

[silver arch]

Absolutely wild

[trim saddle]

Which is vastly different than my normal <20

[muted rose]

I had that too the other day, on a wired connection of all things

[winter comet]

time for the chore that is beating halo 4 legendary again. Did it on console ages ago but doing it for mcc achievements now

[muted rose]

It only was one or two matches but I wonder if the game is putting me in non US servers for some reason

[winter comet]

Chief woke from cryo sleep WAY too easily in Halo 4. Bro would be falling out of that casket

[silver arch]

Cryo sleep is not a realistic concept as is, so I don't really care how they treat it in the games or books for that matter

[winter comet]

Well at least if they treat it one specific way in the books they should take that to the games if the books are canon imo

[jade gust]

The books are canon

But like, there's reasons why we see them go into cryo fully clothed in the games

[hasty zinc]

one match of STUD took me from level 0 in the BP to level 10 lol

[winter comet]

Well yeah I know I didn't mean the full de-cryo I mostly meant the weariness that would come from it

I guess I don't know how mjolnir factors into that tho or his bio enhancements

lol I just watched an elite throw the goofiest nade i ever saw and on legendary. He threw it into the ceiling and it fell in front of him and he dived away, wish I could've clipped that

and he did it again

[pliant hatch]

what a stud

[hasty zinc]

what is gates cap?

just another term for xp cap?

[winter comet]

does things like assault rifle do extra hs dmg once shields are down? I've never thought about this til now

[silver arch]

Idk, the only time non plasma damage does extra damage against unshielded targets is when match game is on iirc

[ocean herald]

Stu

[silver arch]

What is STUD and how can one learn the arts of xp grinding like this

[ocean herald]

Survive the undead

[jade gust]

Most UNSC weapons do better against unshielded targets, most Plasma weapons do better against shields. But it's not so noticeable of a difference that you will be struggling without one or the other

Like, you can still sweep a room of Grunts with a Plasma Rifle and you can still kill lower ranked Elites with ease with an Assault Rifle

[winter comet]

oh did not know that

[ocean herald]

gates cap reached probably means they did actually nerf the xp you can gain (purely a guess)

I was in a match of Stu about a month ago that went almost 2.5 hrs. Top earner walked with over 300k xp

[winter comet]

You hit the daily match xp yes

10k xp is the cap

elite shield seem a lot weaker in halo 4 compared to other games so at least i have that going for me in legendary also their aim kinda sucks

[silver arch]

Their AI is terrible

They frequently get stuck too

[winter comet]

In other games usually your npcs suck while the elites are pros

I hate how fast plasma pistol runs out while overcharging in this game but it is op so I guess that's fair

[hasty zinc]

this coating looks so good

[proper prawn]

hi

[winter comet]

Lol bro stuck in this position in anti gravity. Kept thinking he was still alive https://files.catbox.moe/t7tdip.jpg

I dont get in halo 4 how it was age that made cortana/ai deterioate. Was that a concept introduced in halo 4? Cause you'd think it would be like the gravemind that was what caused it

I thought whole point of ai is that it's not restricted by human brains that would get overparsed due to too much information]

[candid solar]

It's literally been a thing since Halo's earliest foundations.

[silver arch]

They teach you that early on in the lore no?

[winter comet]

Lorewise yes logic wise no

[zinc bear]

Logic doesn’t exist in halo

[winter comet]

A lot of things about it are still grounded in reality

[silver arch]

Wasn't the aging an intentional failsafe to keep AIs in check or am I remembering wrong

[winter comet]

I was thinking that but didn't see that when I looked it up

it seems reckless to allow such important tech to "go crazy"

[zinc bear]

Yeah but it was cool so

self promotions not allowed

[waxen rose]

Going to work with a headache but turns out it's just a flood parasite in my brain
None of you are safe

[zinc bear]

Stay away from us gng

[proper prawn]

🥀

i dont want yo flood...

[zinc bear]

Darealfloodfreak

[waxen rose]

Dont go up to my register or I will take over your conscious mind

[zinc bear]

Dollar tree ain’t that serious 😭😭

[trim saddle]

I think I have that one on my AR.

[waxen rose]

I was listening to a podcast of a dude who put 83 wooden rulers into a a ‘anything in this cup is 50% off’ at dollar tree and the cashier had to scan each ruler one by one

Sometimes it is that serious

[zinc bear]

💔

[naive turret]

I mean that's an inefficient POS system not entirely on the customer, tbf

[waxen rose]

If the customer comes up to me with 83 rulers they will be getting infected by the flood

[naive turret]

It could be a school in need freak

An orphanage, for the blind even

[waxen rose]

I hate schools

[zinc bear]

Someone tried to destroy a shelf in my local store because the register broke and we had to wait a couple minutes. He had the cops called on him after he left so

[waxen rose]

Get out of my place of work before I infect you

[naive turret]

This place has neither dollars nor trees I'm gonna sue

[trim saddle]

So 82 is the limit, got it.

[zinc bear]

What about

6…

[waxen rose]

I will be making full eye contact with every scan

[naive turret]

Cool so when you count them wrong it's on you

[trim saddle]

Will I be.. inches.. from the end of my life?

[waxen rose]

3 seconds no wooden ruler so you break the shelves

[zinc bear]

If freak sees you in the streets you’re DONE

[waxen rose]

making you pay an extra 3 bucks more purposefully

[zinc bear]

All dude had was toilet paper like if you don’t wanna wait target is right down the street

[waxen rose]

Target toilet paper is like 6 bucks
Dollar store paper is 1 buck
Choose your battles

[zinc bear]

But then the card swiper on the register was broken so the nice old lady in front of us gave my mama a $20 bill so we could get our stuff

[naive turret]

Paying you in pennies 🪙

[waxen rose]

OMG GET OUT OF MY STORE

[zinc bear]

And drop the Pennie’s first so you have to pick them up one by one.

[pliant hatch]

I could probly use the 1 dollar tp to do some sanding around the house.

[zinc bear]

Nah trust me it’s peak

[waxen rose]

If someone drops pennies im lowk staring at you in the eye for 2 minutes saying nothing till you pick them up

[naive turret]

The best was always someone licking their fingers before separating notes

[zinc bear]

One time my uncle saw someone trying to hide a lamp under their shirt to steal it at his dollar tree

[naive turret]

In the misdt of lockdowns, no less

[waxen rose]

Omg I hate touching licked dollars

[waxen rose]

Inconspicuous lump

[naive turret]

The image of someone with like, the pixar lamp under their shirt trying to be nonchalant lol

[faint mantle]

That's not dareal, dareal has a pink Mk. VI armor
You're dafakemasterchief!

[waxen rose]

where did my pink bestie go?

[faint mantle]

https://tenor.com/view/thanos-avengers-endgame-gone-reduced-to-atoms-gif-26539274

[silver arch]

I do kinda wish there was a quicker way to earn xp, I've now got 2 BPs that I want to work through

I want that honor gaurd armor so bad 😭

[zinc bear]

This has been my Xbox 360 pfp for 8 years so.. I’m the older darealmasterchief

[pliant hatch]

be good at the undead playlist.

[silver arch]

It does seem to yield more xp per mission, it'st just time consuming. I'll probably just mostly stick to fiesta FF

[pliant hatch]

xp boosts are good if you have any

[silver arch]

That is true, first world complaints really, I know it's meant to take longer as that's how you keep people engaged

[honest fulcrum]

Friends, I don’t know much English, so I’m using Google Translate. I have a question: I wanted to start the Halo series, so I started directly with Halo: Combat Evolved, playing with the original graphics. I’m playing it non-stop and I really like it. Do you think I did well?

[silver arch]

The real way to play halo is however you want

[ocean spruce]

You did fantastic I hope you enjoy

[honest fulcrum]

Yes halo very good like it

[silver arch]

Starting with CE is great, you could also start with Reach as it takes place directly before, but it's less jarring to go from CE gameplay to halo 2 and beyond than it is to go from Reach to CE and so on so forth

[honest fulcrum]

Also, my PC is old, so I enjoyed it even with the original graphics. I played Doom too, but Doom felt really scary. I really liked Halo as a science fiction game.

If Reach is very important, I can move on to it too, I can download it, I’m not sure.

[candid solar]

It is a shame Halo Infinite never got a coating similar to the Rally Hog livery for vehicles.

[silver arch]

Not super important, not needed for main story of the following games. It follows Noble Team and their story leading up to the events that happen just before CE. In the beginning of CE, it shows the Pillar of Autumn arriving at the Halo ring. Well Reach just leads up into it really

[silver arch]

I agree

[compact herald]

halo people of halo, how are we doing today?any news on the new CE?

[honest fulcrum]

So, I don’t know, my friend. I don’t know much English anyway, so I think I’ll continue with CE. But if I research its story while playing CE, will I get a lot of heavy spoilers?

[pliant hatch]

it isn't a part of the original trilogy, but you might like it. it's a little before the events of ce.

[pliant hatch]

not really.

[honest fulcrum]

Alright, my friend, thank you for your help. I hope your wishes come true. Goodbye!

[pliant hatch]

nothing official

[silver arch]

You would, I would just enjoy CE and the rest of Halo at your own pace

[simple cliff]

what are yalls feelings on the new ce

the remake

[waxen rose]

If the chief doesn't hit the whip and nae nae in two betrayals then im afraid the game isnt as peak as we hoped

[zinc bear]

It has SPRINT which means it will be TERRIBLE and it’s made by evilmeandevil industries which means I will not be buying /j

[waxen rose]

The same company that made evil h4 btw

[silver arch]

666 Industries

Hell-no Studios

They HATE their fans and want the game to have EVERYTHING bad

[candid solar]

Chief will NEVER be augmented cringe nae-nae baby

[zinc bear]

Let’s start a union against hell-no studios. /j

Until they remake halo 4 without SPRINT I’ll hate them.

[silver arch]

You're so right, we should also start a petition to bring bungie back

[zinc bear]

and get Marty on the soundtrack

[silver arch]

And the story since his involvement definitely helped so much

[zinc bear]

Make him the lead writer for halo 7 plz

[silver arch]

Well, ig he did help write CEs original story, ig it wouldn't change anything lol

But halo 7 for sure

[zinc bear]

Well he barely did anything. The writer for halo 1 and 2 was such a good writer that it overshadowed what Marty did.

[silver arch]

Ah gotcha

[zinc bear]

I really wish they didn’t swap writers for halo 3 cause it would’ve been a PEAK trilogy.

[inner fulcrum]

Hi guys

[hasty zinc]

https://tenor.com/bgg8V.gif

[inner fulcrum]

We need a game with reach or halo 3’s story and halo 5’s multiplayer

Well like as good of a story as them I mean

[zinc bear]

Nope 🚫🚫🚫

[inner fulcrum]

? What do you mean ?

[muted rose]

Feel like whatever Marty would write today would just he incredibly corny

[hasty zinc]

H3's story was not great at all

[left sage]

haylough tree

[silver arch]

Halo 3 had some scuffed writing, Halo 2's was far better tragically

[cerulean grotto]

Hi

[inner fulcrum]

Ok well then we need a mix of reach story telling and h5 multiplayer

[hasty zinc]

https://tenor.com/jwvjky3k2mn.gif

[static swallow]

Personally the further we are from Halo 5 the better

[simple cliff]

[frosty siren]

i feel great... i just wrote my own halo Battle

[silver arch]

Halo 5's mp was pretty fun, but I prefer infinite's mp a bit more

[zinc bear]

How do we tell them

[inner fulcrum]

That’s a valid take

[zinc bear]

Halo 5 is my favorite halo multiplayer and the one I had the most fun on. Infinite is definitely the most balanced one though.

[silver arch]

Infinite's mp felt more halo like and more grounded

[frosty siren]

im sorry to tell you but... Noble Six has no plans to leave his cave

[inner fulcrum]

No I mean a story as good as reaches

[static swallow]

indeed

[inner fulcrum]

Not reach’s literal story

[zinc bear]

Reach story telling is just

“These Spartans die, the end.”

[frosty siren]

i know, just trolling

[inner fulcrum]

Reminds me of demon slayers ending lowk

[simple cliff]

i love halo reach

[left sage]

peak

[frosty siren]

nah... they just hideing in a cave

[zinc bear]

It’s just a shame that halo reach was mid. The trailer and opening still gives me chills.

[static swallow]

Infinite's Multiplayer gameplay was awesome, the problem here was the content

[silver arch]

Reach's story lacks a lot of depth. It's just a slow montage of tragically ironic deaths. Like watching a car crash in slow motion. You already know what's going to happen, but you just can't look away

[frosty siren]

every spartan that has died simpley went to Nobles Sixes cave
its like Vahilha but for spartans...
hell we got a glimpse of Noble sixes game in Ghost of Onyx

[naive turret]

If only Jun got caught in it.

[zinc bear]

its honestly the worst story in the halo series

[frosty siren]

a fist full of arrows

[muted rose]

Irony is one block of poetry, in a vacuum it’s just something of note

[static swallow]

i mean its a game about the fall of Humanity's last bastion before Earth

we knew what was going to happen, its like Rogue One

[zinc bear]

@waxen rose does NOT agree for sure

[static swallow]

Halo 5 ? That's for sure

[silver arch]

Yeah, it just didn't do a great job telling that story

[zinc bear]

halo 5 sucked, but it had its monents. and linda.

[simple cliff]

im not the biggest fan of the gunplay but i really like its story (halo reach)

[silver arch]

Halo 4 had what I think was some of the worst writing. The only moments I like are those between Chief and Cortana

[static swallow]

No, it had no moment imo

there's nothing to save from this campaign apart from maybe the Sangheilios environement but that's it

[zinc bear]

okay buddy

[frosty siren]

thats my favotte halo game LOL

[silver arch]

It felt lazy all around, but they did alright showing the human side of chief and his interactions with 4

[zinc bear]

halo 4 was the best halo story but you can have your own opinion

[zinc bear]

cortanas arc was pretty cool, even if her coming back was stupid.

[silver arch]

It has the best master chief story, the rest of it was kind of unbearable. 5 did far better really

[static swallow]

Halo 4 was the best Halo Story of the Post Bungie era

Tho granted its not that hard....

halo 5 : worst campaign ever made

Infinite : 6 hours long apology letter

[silver arch]

Worst campaign? Clearly you've never played ODST lol

[frosty siren]

halo 2 and halo 5 were quite simmular

[zinc bear]

now this is just ragebait

[simple cliff]

https://tenor.com/view/morgan-freeman-true-morgan-freeman-true-nodding-gif-13973817878387504960

[vagrant kettle]

Such slander

[silver arch]

Infinite is not that good, was extremely tedious

[frosty siren]

i were doing spin offs... the Halo Spartan assualt was the worst campaing

[static swallow]

no no no.....that's not Cortana, that's Skytana (Skynet + Cortana), Cortana died in 4 and has been replaced by this [Not gonna say it cuz i don't want the mods to get mad]

[silver arch]

Looked pretty and the set up was cool, but they just left it there and continued it in a book instead of saving it for a game

[frosty siren]

lolll

[static swallow]

how ?

[junior kestrel]

Headshot prority: when a weapon's red reticle prioritises headshots when it's within the red reticle.

That is my understanding.

[silver arch]

It seems we're all talking MCC entries, not those kinds of spin offs

[calm shadow]

hello ^^

[silver arch]

Yo

[calm shadow]

how r u?

[frosty siren]

you split between playing a powerfull chater and and weaker charter

[zinc bear]

halo 5 is better than halo 2 imo

[silver arch]

I'm alright, just bored. Wbu?

[static swallow]

ok now this is just ragebait

[calm shadow]

same

[noble solar]

I've been playing Halo infinite and Fortnite
Halo runs perfectly on 300ms ping and Fortnite starts to lag on 150ms
I'm curious to know why

[zinc bear]

two different servers

[frosty siren]

cus Halo is better

[junior kestrel]

For the record I was asleep for abt 7 hours

[zinc bear]

arbiter also looked cooler in 5

[obsidian wyvern]

halo does not run perfectly on 300 ping why would you lie about this lmao

but yes Fortnite is a way worse experience on high ping

[silver arch]

What game runs well on anything more than like, 70 ping

[frosty siren]

Mindursty

[noble solar]

It is
I just played a game and won
I got 10 kills

[zinc bear]

my old broken pc would get 500 ping on halo infinite and i still tried to go pro

[static swallow]

too bad his character has almost no use to the plot other than fanservice

[zinc bear]

yeah but 5 was miles ahead of 2 so

[obsidian wyvern]

I've played on 300 ping longer than you have I can guarantee it

[static swallow]

like many others in 5 you'll tell me

[junior kestrel]

Sure.

[silver arch]

When your ping is so bad fighting you is like fighting king crimson from jojos

[jade gust]

That's never been a thing in Halo ever. No Halo game has ever prioritised headshots when you are aiming at someone within red reticle range

[naive turret]

https://tenor.com/view/kiritsugu-time-alter-gif-9715914

High ping be like

[frosty siren]

so real

[zinc bear]

high ping on a 100 mb's internet was NOT the way to go

[vagrant kettle]

Someone explain ping to me. Everyone keeps talking about it, but I don’t know what it actually means

[silver arch]

I know it's not the same, but that reminded me of sandevistan from cyberpunk

[zinc bear]

how long it takes for your game to respond to input. higher is worse, lower is better.

[frosty siren]

ping is the delay from your inputs from your console to the game servers

[vagrant kettle]

👍

[silver arch]

Highest ping I ever got was like, 10k in titanfall 2 before it essentially crashed

[frosty siren]

awww... 10k... thats cute

[zinc bear]

lemme guess, during the DDoS attacks?

[static swallow]

ah yes during the DDOS attack crisis

[silver arch]

Not sure as it was YEARS ago, back after it launched

[obsidian wyvern]

a measure of latency

oh didnt scroll down

[zinc bear]

i still dont know what DDoS stands for

[silver arch]

So I doubt that it was during the attacks

[frosty siren]

i got 120k once on a moible Game

[zinc bear]

i once got 67k 😂

[frosty siren]

your getting there

[silver arch]

Distributed Denial of Service, had to look it up because even tho I took an IT class, I forgor

[zinc bear]

ohjhh thank you

[jade gust]

Denial of Service Attack
Edit: DDoS is specifically distributed denial-of-service attack

[frosty siren]

welp back to writeing my book

[zinc bear]

put linda in it plz

[obsidian wyvern]

got ddsos'd in rocket league lmao

[frosty siren]

i could shove her in a flashback only then...

[zinc bear]

yes!!

[zinc bear]

rocket league was peak when it first released. lowkey miss it

[frosty siren]

cus idk how long the spartans whould be on zeta halo, cus the book takes in 2565

[zinc bear]

yeah me neither lol

[silver arch]

I swear, someone must have ddos'd me in my last firefight game. I guess they were upset that I was getting the most kills lol. Got randomly booted from the game and then it crashed to top it off (I don't actually think this was the case)

[zinc bear]

maybe they just flicked their wifi off

[frosty siren]

jermone is mentioned in it thoe in 2537

[static swallow]

we don't really know much about anything tbh....That's the problem when a campaign spends more time trying to hide the previous game's events under the rug than building up its context

[zinc bear]

ok

[silver arch]

Mind you, it was grunt fiesta FF

Would be really funny if someone got that mad in that gamemode of all things

[cedar turret]

How much do you think hotel rooms are on a halo? Are they going to gouge you? Charge you a resort fee? Would some Halos be cheaper to visit than others?

[zinc bear]

the scary halos would be motels

[frosty siren]

how you doing Just Dont, i feel like you change your name weekely lol

[junior kestrel]

Let's comtinue this in #1442246185480880250

Outside general.

[left sage]

flood spore halo game when

[zinc bear]

ticker in gears of war core

[junior kestrel]

Scary

[frosty siren]

sorry... theres no tickers in my book also... it has juvie popers thoe

[silver arch]

Sounds about right. Since there's only like, 3(?) other nicer rings, those would probably be the "high class 5 star resort destinations"

Read that some of the rings are lowkey uninhabitable. (not the ones that are destroyed obviously)

[frosty siren]

welp back to my book i go... Farewell odsts

[static swallow]

Good luck Soldier

[cedar turret]

What would the first theme park on a halo ring look like? And how would they use the bottomless pits?

[zinc bear]

Make a rollercoaster in the shape of a ring

[hasty zinc]

Bungie Jumping

[naive turret]

https://tenor.com/view/space-mountain-disneyland-xfiles-gif-4984585

[hasty zinc]

haha get it

[silver arch]

A Ferris wheel

[zinc bear]

Sorry please censor bung*e next time

[silver arch]

Sorry Aegis, dareal's joke made me laugh more

[junior kestrel]

Bungie.

[cedar turret]

Trash disposal would be easy; just toss it off the ring

[zinc bear]

Aegis influenced my jokes so.. he’s the funnier one.

[zinc bear]

Master chief can be the main attraction. Get your face painted and get a photo with the chief today!

[silver arch]

Fair enough

[zinc bear]

At installation 04 theme park.

[silver arch]

So assuming they maintain the current descriptions for these rings, the only other worth while rings would be 06 and 09. With 06 being foresty and 09 just being a direct copy of 04. All you'd have to do is kick the created off of 09

[cedar turret]

More likely a 'see the face of the chief' paid add-on where it turns out to be one of those carboard cutout photo ops you stick your face in.

like that

[silver arch]

If icy oceans and deserts are your things, 01 and 02 have that covered

[zinc bear]

Will master chief be in the mermaid suit too?

[silver arch]

Yes

[zinc bear]

Yay

[cedar turret]

Master Chief was always a mermaid.

[compact herald]

Any news on the next CE?

[silver arch]

There's gonna be ANOTHER remake?? /j

Nothing so far iirc

[zinc bear]

It’s gonna be a halo game.

[silver arch]

False, it's gonna be a mass effect game

[compact herald]

bruh what an L. I thought it was going to be an extention of minecraft

[zinc bear]

Mid effect ✌️✌️

[silver arch]

Wait you might be right

[zinc bear]

Yeah, it’s a shame. Of course hell-no studios already had to ruin it.

[compact herald]

does this mean halo will live on for 50 more years?

[zinc bear]

Yes and bung*e will come back

[silver arch]

Halo is dead now sadly

[zinc bear]

Cause 666 industries RUINED it with SPRINT /j

[winter comet]

I forgot that the monitors, or at least some of them, are humans

[compact herald]

but alive in our hearts ❤️ (i cant wait for campaign evolved!!!!)

[silver arch]

Where were you when Halo die? I was at house eating dorito when phone ring. Halo is kil. No.

[compact herald]

i was when

[zinc bear]

Where were you when reach fell? I was at home eating Dorito when phone ring. Reach is kil. No.

[silver arch]

I'm cautiously optimistic, it looks neat. I hope it's well optimized, UE5 is known for poor performance

[silver arch]

Rember Reach

[winter comet]

more like no one knows how to opitimise games with it cause it's new

[zinc bear]

I spoke with Stckr, he was a playtester. He said that it ran butter smooth on Xbox series s/x. was a little laggy on PC, but it’s a demo so I’m not worried.

[silver arch]

As long as I'm not getting stalker 2 levels of performance, I'll be aight

[zinc bear]

Don’t even remind me about stalker 2 😭

[steady jolt]

I played the pre-announcement build on a Series X, it played really well

[winter comet]

I'm a halo insider i forgot to check if I have playtest access

[silver arch]

I love stalker, 2 wasn't even that bad otherwise

[zinc bear]

It was only for community admins, sorry.

[winter comet]

Oh darn

[steady jolt]

There are currently no public builds available

[silver arch]

The performance was awful. So bad that I had to uninstall because I just couldn't stand it any longer

[zinc bear]

it blue screened my pc

[silver arch]

Holy cow lol

[zinc bear]

and has terrible ghosting and fps drops on xbox series s so i just dropped it

[silver arch]

Really saddening for me as a long time stalker fan

[zinc bear]

it was my first stalker game. looking foward to the others.

[trim saddle]

I want the demo to play as a beta test. They can open it up for coop also for network testing.

[zinc bear]

yess

@halostudios plz

[trim saddle]

Even just that one level since that's the demo I played as a kid before OG CE dropped.

Nostalgic as heck.

[zinc bear]

so, you beat the halo combat evolved demo huh?

i need to have that sergeant johnson clip remade with campaign evolved

[junior kestrel]

They should. As well as get a wider feedback pool. Content creators are a poor representation of what people's feedback are gonna look like.

[junior kestrel]

That's the demo of custom edition I played years before mcc came to pc.

[trim saddle]

A survey to fill out at the end of each demo run 😁

[junior kestrel]

As well as Johnson directing you to it.

[silver arch]

It doesn't get less buggy, I'll tell you that much lol

They are generally more stable than 2 tho. Which is saying A LOT because the X-ray engine is awful

The old games will crash on you from time to time, so save often

[junior kestrel]

I imagine 3-5 things are gonna pop up a lot in the surveys

[zinc bear]

Bugs don’t bother me. More of the fact that stalker 2 was almost unplayable cause of the performance.

[silver arch]

But other than that, they're amazing. Call of pripyat is my favorite

[junior kestrel]

The ar, needler and forerunner structures.

And the dreaded S word.

[zinc bear]

Im a fallout fan, so im used to having buggy games lol

[silver arch]

You'll love and hate some of the bugs. Some are extremely funny and some will infuriate you

[junior kestrel]

Poor boy. You have no idea hoe good you have it in fallout.

[zinc bear]

What did you just call me?

[silver arch]

I wanted to make a comment but thought maybe I shouldn't lol

[zinc bear]

fallout 3 without the 4gb patcher is very rough lol

[silver arch]

I would actually argue that the OG games are a little bit harder, but just as rewarding at the same time

[junior kestrel]

So's nv.

[silver arch]

Higher difficulties, you die just as quickly as you kill. Super satisfying

[junior kestrel]

More rewarding proportionally.

[zinc bear]

nah, fnv is fine without it. fallout 3 gets like 40 fps on the lowest settings without it

[zinc bear]

yay! cant wait to throw my controller!!

[junior kestrel]

Kb&m.

The first 2 don't support controller.

[silver arch]

You'll be throwing your controller over the random things that kill you more than actual fighting lolol

[zinc bear]

steam input exists silly

[junior kestrel]

Damn

[trim saddle]

I just want to launch warthogs on the beach

[zinc bear]

sameee

[silver arch]

All 3 of the original games are on xbox

[junior kestrel]

Guys. Hear me out.

Smg with grenade launcher

[zinc bear]

i love that halo infinite trick where you can smack a razorback with a gravity hammer and then grapple it, you go flying lol.

[silver arch]

Granted, they're the really weird AI upscaled versions, but they should still play the same

[zinc bear]

they come with the og version so

[silver arch]

Did they? I only knew about that on steam, wasn't sure about the console releases

[junior kestrel]

Why you gotta be a lowkey hater?

[silver arch]

Play those instead, the remasters did nothing other than make the game feel and look weird

[zinc bear]

not a hater. just not a good idea imo

[zinc bear]

i dont play stalker on console so

[silver arch]

Oh

You said controller, my bad

[zinc bear]

pc with a controller baby!! xbox is only for non crossplay games cause my friends are on xbox

ive just used a controller for the past 13 years so its hard relearning how to play an fps game with a mouse

[junior kestrel]

How isn't it a good idea?

[silver arch]

Tiny weapon plus heavy gl attachment equals poor design

[zinc bear]

sounds very overpowered too

[trim saddle]

Nade launcher on the SMG doesn't sound good. Smgs are supposed to be a lighter weapon and the nade launcher would add a lot of weight.

[junior kestrel]

Mp5 has had 40mm launchers before.

[trim saddle]

And plus, smgs are a closer range weapon so using explosives when you're already close is a bad idea.

[silver arch]

The halo smg is not the mp5 tho

[junior kestrel]

No. But it's not like a nade launcher is especially heavy.

[silver arch]

You would have nowhere to put it

[trim saddle]

It adds significant weight when you have to carry it around, can confirm from real life experience.

[junior kestrel]

Foregrip remove.

[silver arch]

Now it's harder to control

[junior kestrel]

You can hold the grenade launcher.

[zinc bear]

recon father has held a grenade launcher confirmed?

[junior kestrel]

Angle has changed.

[zinc bear]

i also feel like attachments arent a good idea on halo. thats the issue i had with 5

[junior kestrel]

You played with rifle + m203?

[trim saddle]

6 years in the Army as a Military Police, 1 year overseas.

[junior kestrel]

I don't think they're inherently bad. Just how they're used.

Take halo odst.

What do you think the smg and tac mag are?

[hasty zinc]

yeah well I have nerf guns, so you know

[silver arch]

I only have a shotgun and a pistol atm

[zinc bear]

yeah well i hold grenade launchers in VR.

[silver arch]

I've used a bolter in VR, so I think I know a little bit more about heavy guns and recoil than you soo

slash j, obviously

[junior kestrel]

My irl experience is limited to pistols and a bolt action.

It's not even a powerful one either. Just a 22 lr.

[candid solar]

Why the SMG of all guns?

[junior kestrel]

Spray and boom

Or spray and make em pray

[silver arch]

Still not ideal for close quarters. Imagine shooting that in a cramped ship

[jade gust]

I think for PvE, you could make weapon attachments work, but it'd need to be a system akin to how COD Black Ops 1 handles attaching things to weapons, so you can only slap on a limited number of attachments, and likely exclude things like under barrel grenade launchers for the sake of balance

[silver arch]

Halo 5 had limited attachments iirc

[junior kestrel]

So like bf 6's weight system.

[silver arch]

I think things should just stay the way they are idk

[trim saddle]

Nade bounces off a wall and back to you, pops your shield and you're now respawning.

[silver arch]

I meant in a realistic book-like scenario, but thank you for putting this image in my head lol

[junior kestrel]

You can have all the attachments as long as they don't conflict with one another. So side, top and barrel. And blade.

[jade gust]

Also, since I did see the MP5 mentioned, yes, it can have an under barrel grenade launcher, but it's not exactly standard for SMGs in general to have one mounted to them, there's other firearms which make more sense to equip one onto (If it's needed in the first place)

[jade gust]

I have never played a Battlefield game

[silver arch]

I didn't like bf6, preferred 1 more

[junior kestrel]

Also irl gl grenades need time to arm and will not go off unless they have been airborne for enough distance.

[jade gust]

That doesn't go against what Iso said, grenade launchers still aren't ideal for CQC

[silver arch]

It would still go eventually and blow a whole in the ship if it's close enough to the exterior. Using explosives in a space combat scenario is extremely dumb

[candid solar]

There is a version of the KRISS Vector that is meant to mount a 40mm.

[junior kestrel]

Your gun has a max capacity for attachments, it reduces the more stuff you put on it. 10-100 for example.

So you can put a lot on. But not everything.

[junior kestrel]

Vector is a little bigger than the halo smg to be fair.

[jade gust]

See, as someone who is very much not an expert, I did not know the Vector had a version which could mount a grenade launcher

[silver arch]

The halo smg is 2 feet long when fully extended

[jade gust]

So is the MP5

[silver arch]

16 inches when collapsed more

[candid solar]

A parts kit that can, which consists of an extended barrel and a bottom picatinny rail.

[jade gust]

Like, Halo's M7 SMG is basically around the size of a TMP

[junior kestrel]

I'd prolly have this for something like the digsite smg, the heavy one.

[junior kestrel]

Or mp7.

Similar shilohett too.

[silver arch]

Plus, why have smg mounted nade launcher when 4 gave us the holy grail

[jade gust]

Logical, doesn't surprise me it'd need a longer barrel to allow for one to be mounted

[silver arch]

The sticky nade launcher

[junior kestrel]

Why not have a sticky underbarrel?

[candid solar]

Have you watched Deadpool 2? That's the first time that combo has appeared in fiction.

[trim saddle]

Just give me the sticky det back

[jade gust]

Where are you getting the idea that the SMG in Digsite is meant to be a heavy SMG?

[silver arch]

What is a heavy smg if not a short barreled rifle

[jade gust]

It's been at least 5 years since I saw Deadpool 2 so I likely don't remember seeing that

[junior kestrel]

I'm not. I'm saying it could work as a heavy smg.

[junior kestrel]

Think more... heavy ammo.

Like a thompson.

[jade gust]

Your phrasing comes across as you saying the Digsite SMG is a heavy SMG

[junior kestrel]

Fair. But it does look heavier than the m7

[trim saddle]

I'm gonna play some halo.

[junior kestrel]

Have fun.

[obsidian wyvern]

you guys need to spread managed democracy

[jade gust]

Maybe after Christmas

[candid solar]

Cable's primary weapon in Deadpool 2 is built around a Vector's body of the CRB variety.

[jade gust]

Ah

[frosty siren]

how accurete down this seem
240 UNSC ship destoroyed 35 covadent ships while the other 25 retreat while loseing 160 of there own ship

[silver arch]

My brain is rotting from talking about silly guns so much blegh

[naive turret]

https://tenor.com/view/democracy-helldivers-2-helldivers-gif-15492972563778475164

[junior kestrel]

That's a lot of stuff around a vector lol.

[silver arch]

I think I uninstalled HD2 to make more space. I don't play it enough

[junior kestrel]

Quick aside. I'd love to see a 30 mm from the digsite.

[jade gust]

Admittedly, this past week has been spent preparing for a clone army in Destiny 2 arriving in a couple weeks, grinding this final pass in Halo Infinite and trying to kill Sean Bean in Hitman

[candid solar]

By like, half an inch in length on the SBR/SMG version, and it's actually about 2 inches smaller when the stock is folded.

[jade gust]

Oh and training up a Lucario in preparation for the Legends Z-A DLC

[candid solar]

It's a shame most firearms companies are run by awful people, but then, with how American gun culture is so deeply cancerous and toxic, I can't say I'm unsurprised. If it weren't the case I'd totally buy a KRISS Vector with all the fancy gubbinz.

[junior kestrel]

That's true. But the ammo itself is pretty heavy in comparison. We're kinda comparing apples to oranges. The halo smg is more like a pdw.

[junior kestrel]

There are gun cultures that are more toxic. And...

Dangerous.

[silver arch]

There is no ethical consumption when you are buying a firearm. It's a weapon designed to kill. Also I can't think of any manufacturer that hasn't done or supported something awful

[junior kestrel]

And no I don't think killing people premeditated is culture. That's just evil.

[candid solar]

Eh, you may be misunderstanding what I mean by this.

It's the people I hate, I'm not unaware of the other realities of the industry.

[silver arch]

Oh my b

[junior kestrel]

There is no ethical consumption with anything when you look hard enough.

[candid solar]

Eh, I always viewed that sort of mindset as being cynical and nihilistic to a point of distaste.

[silver arch]

You're right tho, I'll talk with people about the guns I own and they'll hit me with the most outta pocket thing ever and then I just change the subject or stop talking to them

[candid solar]

There's a few ranges I can't currently go to in my state for a reason lmao

[silver arch]

Gun culture is so insane here in the states

[junior kestrel]

Exactly. I'm trying to point out the absurdity of that mindset.

Even if it's kinda true.

Exploitation of primary producers for their food.

Exploitation of miners.

Exploitation of factory workers.

Amazon.

[silver arch]

Yeah, but you have to buy food and other things to survive. I wasn't referring to that with what I said. I made that comment thinking trench was saying that evil gun manufacturers were the reason why they hadn't bought a gun.

[jade gust]

I was lucky when I was in Texas I was in Austin. Outside of on the holsters of cops, I never saw any firearms

[junior kestrel]

Some places you need guns to survive.

[jade gust]

Well, that is if we don't count the various cosplay props I saw

[silver arch]

?

Like where? 😭

[candid solar]

None of those places are the US outside of being very deep in the Applachian mountains or deep in the plains.

[junior kestrel]

It's called the wilderness.

Don't screw around with crocs or bears.

[silver arch]

Yeah a hunting weapon, not self defense against weirdos

[junior kestrel]

I'm sorry. Gators.

[candid solar]

Like that's always been a bad argument from my perspective because it drives a zero-sum argument that doesn't actually work as well as argumenative footing in practice.

[junior kestrel]

Lotta big words.

[silver arch]

I understood them perfectly

[junior kestrel]

I didn't

[candid solar]

Okay so like, firearm ownership is a privelege, not a right.

That you live out in the boonies is not an argument in favor of relaxed gun ownership laws.

[junior kestrel]

Rights...

Everything is a right until it isn't haha.

[silver arch]

Exactly. Nobody needs a full auto weapon for hunting lol

[junior kestrel]

More like human rights are societal privileges.

[candid solar]

So, if you're going to argue for gun ownership, as a right or privelege, arguing that it's needed for living in the deep country is not necessarily a good argument.

[silver arch]

Agreed

[junior kestrel]

Sorry it's just a funny thought.

[candid solar]

It helps but it's not strictly necessary.

[junior kestrel]

Some weapons would be needed if you're a primary producer and you wanna protect your live stock. It's why even here they can get pump shotguns.

[pliant hatch]

we need guns to fight the covenant

[candid solar]

Yes, it's a tool of the job for that sort of field. That does not justify Jimmy Bubba the third and his wife-sister having over 120 firearms on their inherited dumpster fire of a former farm.

And you can get by with crossbows and muzzleloaders for such a job, the latter of which is the only gun you're allowed to make without a license in the US last I checked.

[junior kestrel]

I'd have em regardless cause they're fun to shoot. I have no ill intent or wish to enact harm on another person.

[candid solar]

Which is good! But also ties into American Gun Culture normally not thinking like that, by design.

[candid solar]

(If it's not clear, I really don't trust most stereotypical firearms owners)

[junior kestrel]

Granted I would prefer to have a piece on me for defence only. I'm not out to kill or maime without good reason. Only reason I'd have is if someone was trying to gut me with a blade, or blow me away.

[candid solar]

See that's partly a thing. A lot. Like, a staggering number of US Firearms owners hold pieces for defense... Proactively wanting to get that fight.

[junior kestrel]

Fair ig. I can't really argue in a way that makes it sound more trusting.

[candid solar]

And a lot of the time it's under dubious or doubtful circumstances.

Like, someone can say they're pro-self-defense in the vein of their firearm ownership, but they actually mean they are hoping someone breaks into their house to justify knowing what it feels like to make someone die of a gunshot wound.

[junior kestrel]

It's proactive defence. I don't want to get into a fight. It being on my hip is also a deterrent also.

I'd personally live happily without needing to draw it in public.

[potent musk]

Dammit I really need MCC

[junior kestrel]

It's on steam

[potent musk]

Good thing it's on sale

(slowmode was on)

[candid solar]

This part is why I don't trust firearms owners who I haven't personally gone to the range with and know their actual quality of control and capability.

Ironically, it's never the people who brag about their firearms in public or do completely insane crap like sending their relatives christmas cards with bubby joe and scooter, 3 and 5 respectively, brandishing an AR each.

[junior kestrel]

Besides. In a reality where all cops and lotta crooks have one, forgive me for being weary when I don't.

[junior kestrel]

I mean. I'd talk about my guns. Once I got some.

But my first piece is gonna be a lever action dude. My eye is on a 45'70 gov

[faint mantle]

https://tenor.com/view/family-guy-peter-griffin-he-said-it-he-said-gif-5286270

[candid solar]

I don't normally talk about what I have unless it's relevant. 45-70 is a nice one but it's a bit showy for a first firearm in my opinion, a cheap .22lr target plinker of some variety is a better first choice IMO. Lets you build fundamentals.

[junior kestrel]

I'm not carrying cause I wanna fight. It's quite the opposite.

[candid solar]

No, Merty was talking about the Halo 2 OST reference.

[faint mantle]

The reference went over you

[junior kestrel]

Ahhh.

Well it was intentional.

[faint mantle]

https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=ePLDO68lcA4

[candid solar]

DAE Halo 2?

[junior kestrel]

When everyone has guns only the ones with most self control will survive.

[junior kestrel]

I've done try shooting with a 22lr. Bolt action.

I wanna stam up to a lever action with that under my belt.

Also done try shooting with a ruger mk4, 9mm glock and a 357 revolver.

I'd go for something more complicated but can't own semi auto rifles here under hobby license

[scarlet shoal]

https://youtu.be/4R3ozTXhl1w?si=hR7XZuJTHxKSbzZl Imagine a fps with this gameplay.

It would be crazy awesome.

[candid solar]

Sussy link

[trim saddle]

I bet it's a rickroll

[scarlet shoal]

It's armored core 4 gameplay.

[scarlet shoal]

Lol.

Imagine if halo moved like armored core 4?

Feels so damn quick in armored core 4 and so slick and smooth

[jade gust]

A bunch of people would complain it's not Halo 3

[trim saddle]

I'd be carsick the whole time

[junior kestrel]

Ac4 is not befiting halo. Actually ac4 is one of the most complex shooters of all time.

For console*

[scarlet shoal]

You're right though. Halo is more simplistic. Armored core is one of the more complex shooters.

Armored core 4 is so fast too. While halo is quite slow (even halo 5).

[jade gust]

Will admit, this did just reawaken a memory from my Overwatch days where someone was claiming that the only way for Overwatch to stay relevant is for them to just make every character as strong as Naruto... Fun times explaining why that's not how you make a game stay relevant

[junior kestrel]

It's prolly the most complex of the ac games period. Cause of the weight distribution system affecting not only movement but turning speed.

[scarlet shoal]

Lol so they wanted everyone to be tracer?

[junior kestrel]

Also you're moving in excess of the speed of sound in ac4.

You can fist fight any ace combat protaginst

[winter comet]

Here in Australia you can only legally own a gun if you have 6 months regular training, 6 months in the sporting shooters association, get rigorous background checks, and a safe, and a good enough reason to own a gun. I think it also needs to be authorised by high authority in the police. These are great precautions.

[jade gust]

We're not bringing back that meme

[scarlet shoal]

Damn. That's fascinating. I loved that in armored core 4. But yeah it was very complex for a console game.

[junior kestrel]

That's not even game design.

[jade gust]

I never said it was game design?

[junior kestrel]

No but like.

That's just stupid design man.

[candid solar]

There's reasons why I don't think half of those are good ideas that are tied entirely to how utterly screwed up American Gun Culture is, despite me wanting restrictions like that due to American Gun Culture being so screwed up.

[scarlet shoal]

I think he meant making everyone Naruto isn't good design.

[junior kestrel]

I have some bad ideas but this takes the cake.

[scarlet shoal]

Fr. Imagine a FPS that plays like Naruto. Ngl it would be kind of bad.

[proper prawn]

hi

[jade gust]

You think that's the worst thing I've seen? I have seen so much worse

[scarlet shoal]

Damn what's the worse you seen?

[winter comet]

Huge red flag that Americans always laugh like maniacs while shooting at the range

[candid solar]

I dunno, people like Dishonored and such, and I think that's not too far (I have not watched Naruto).

[junior kestrel]

Not reallt. Adrenaline is a hell of a drug

[winter comet]

What does he mean by plays like Naruto

[jade gust]

Dishonoured my beloved
