[QUOTE=Skyward;37966876]Bleh, the Locus helmet does not look Halo at all. And a lot of these armors ARE really fucking gross. *IMAGES* ^case and point^ Not saying they're all bad, though. CIO, Recruit, Orbital, Recon, Scout, Aviator, Defender, Air Asssault, and Vanguard looks good. The rest I'm ambivalent about, save for Fotus, stupid megatron helmet.[/QUOTE] so like 6 of the 30+ armour types you don't like? believe it or not i actually like a few of those. there's many different types of armour for many different tastes, i'm sure there's several that you'll love but others will think look butt fuck ugly too

And even the helmets I like out of them still have some parts I don't like. Admittedly, my main problem with armor comes from the actual suits themselves, less about the helmets. I generally don't like the new look of the Spartans, but I guess I'm just weird like that. All I was trying to say was that a portion of the armors looks bad to me.
Out of all the Helmets I've seen I only like two and that's because they're from Halo 3.
[QUOTE=Irespawnoften;37959601][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/zJ05p.gif[/IMG][/QUOTE] That's how Armor Lock is used, not for pussy situations.
Armor lock killing a vehicle has always felt cheap to me, even if I'm the one doing the locking.
I think the Bungie is catchin' on the Valve's hat policy.

Are you on your periods or why are you getting your panties in a twist over the slightest thing relating to halo?
Curious, has it ever been explained how the ODST's easily drop from low orbit and slam into the ground without breaking some/all of their bones? I know their pods slow themselves down as they approach their targets, but it seems like they still hit the ground pretty fast.
[QUOTE=smeismastger;37968406]Are you on your periods or why are you getting your panties in a twist over the slightest thing relating to halo?[/QUOTE] Didn't realize debating with facts = being on my period or having my panties in a twist. Still being a shit-threading troll on the Halo thread I see. When people say something stupid like Halo has turned into COD, because things like customization, grenade indicators and dub-step as their only reasons, people who invested time into having an education of the Halo 4, and the rest of Halo are going to have something to say about. This is a forum, where topic are actively debated.

Chute and decent thrusters FTW!

[editline]9th October 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=Pandamox;37966675]The old punishment for quitting was just stupid, it punished quitters by banning them and putting them on probation. There are SEVERAL reasons as to why someone would quit and they shouldn't be punished like that. Having the rest of your team quit and making it a 4v1 shit fest and basically being forced to quit, being disconnected from the internet for whatever reason, having a friend send you an invite in the middle of a match, etc. etc. being banned and put on probation for shit like that was insanely dumb[/QUOTE] You realise you had to quit multiple times in a day to get banned right? Using disconnection as an excuse is poor unless your internet is so shit you get disconnected every ten minutes.
[QUOTE=Funky Pickle;37966997]But I like these two. [img]http://www.facepunch.com/fp/emoot/saddowns.gif[/img][/QUOTE] Big Daddy and Issac Cameo included

The latency is a killer.
[QUOTE=Delta616;37968814]Still being a shit-threading troll on the Halo thread I see[/QUOTE] Where were you the other times I have been posting on this thread? You even took my joke about hats up your ass, have I hurt your feelings at some point in the past for you to form some sort of grudge against me?
[QUOTE=P1X3L N1NJA;37969070] You realise you had to quit multiple times in a day to get banned right? Using disconnection as an excuse is poor unless your internet is so shit you get disconnected every ten minutes.[/QUOTE] Believe it or not, not everyone has fiber internet and always a perfect connection. I live in the mountains of BC. I've had times where i'll be trying to play during the winter and i will indeed get constantly disconnected because of the weather, and then i get put on "quitter probation" where if i quit ONE GAME within something like 3-7 days, it restarts the probation and i get banned again. that is such an incredibly poor system that they really didn't think through at all
But now we have the vastly superior drop-in drop-out type system, so no more 1vs4 bullshit!
new forge, not sure if already posted [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJtES5ecgCg[/media]
[QUOTE=o DefcoN o;37973569]new forge, not sure if already posted [/QUOTE] I love you. Wow, that map is beautiful! [sp]We get to create a fucking space station in forge.[/sp]
[QUOTE=Muntu;37973538]But now we have the vastly superior drop-in drop-out type system, so no more 1vs4 bullshit![/QUOTE] Yeah i did see a little bit on that which i'm really excited for. I'm hoping now that leaving a match (for whatever reason) won't COMPLETELY cripple your team that they have made the punishment less severe, perhaps just not getting any credits / XP from that match, or possibly even losing XP. Drop-in doesn't work for all game modes though, i'm assuming for ones like Arena where it's far more competitive, which is totally understandable.
I liked the unlock system better when earning armor wasn't tied into a credits store. It seemed like the game went from working together to earn armor and unlock things in the game, to just grinding towards whatever you wanted to get. Even though the old unlock method was still a little grindy at times itself, it at least encouraged people to group together to get certain achievements. The ban system was pretty poorly executed, but something like it would be needed to prevent people from afking their way to riches if Bungie wanted the grind system to work for a long period of time. I think it would be pretty cool if there were goals you could meet aside from grinding multiplayer to earn armor for the people that play for the campaign, or forge, custom games, or whatever. That way the people who actually enjoyed the XP system could co-exist with the people who would rather take on some ridiculous co-op campaign achievement for the same rewards.

Not sure about Single Player.
What guns are in your loadouts? Is it the normal BR, DMR, AR or will people be putting snipers and rockets in there?
[QUOTE=Tuskin;37973797]You do earn XP in Spartan Ops. Not sure about Single Player.[/QUOTE] I don't necessarily mean things that stack onto XP, seeing as that would just feed back into grinding kills for rewards in the campaign. I'm talking about certain objectives such as [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTTGOWqkTWo"]jumping through the Halo's in H3[/URL] to make one of the skulls appear, or dragging the gnome to the end of certain maps in [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=LeuDhAHFJLU"]Left4Dead 2[/URL]/Half Life. Stuff that may or may not be obvious, some of which could only be found by the community if they went looking for it.

[QUOTE=FullStreak12;37973881]What guns are in your loadouts? Is it the normal BR, DMR, AR or will people be putting snipers and rockets in there?[/QUOTE] No power weapons.
The space station building does remind me of Spacebuild in Gmod, only this looks better with all the dynamic shadows and stuff. Can't wait to try it out, magnets look amazing.
[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;37974089]Oh wow nice job 343 copying Gmod when will they ever get original? I'm only kidding it looks awesome.[/QUOTE] Yeah, I actually got some Spacebuild vibes outta that. Not sayin they're copying of course.
[QUOTE=dogmachines;37974110]No power weapons.[/QUOTE] You can put the Shotgun in though.
[QUOTE=o DefcoN o;37973569]new forge, not sure if already posted [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJtES5ecgCg[/media][/QUOTE] fucking magnets, how do they work
[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;37974216]You can put the Shotgun in though.[/QUOTE] A shotgun isn't much of a power weapon though. It instakills at close range but a Sniper Rifle in the hands of a good player can kill anyone in sight and a rocket is a one hit kill if it hits, nevermind the fact that it's an anti-tank weapon.
