I finally got my copy of Reach yesterday, I only played the first mission, but it was a pretty mission (And buggy, Jorge got locked outside when we went into the outpost). I like how the game opens showing your dead body.
MP is better too, more players mean I'm put with players more around my skill range, and having more gamemodes than Slayer and Firefight is nice (Infection is fun)
[QUOTE=goldenbuttocks;36067006]Oh my god, this is just like the Fallout thread, it's a cycle:
People get news about halo 4
People argue about which kind of general aspect of the game is better
People argue about continuity and lore
People argue about new features of Halo 4
Actual discussion of Halo (20%)
Repeat.[/QUOTE]
I wouldn't say argue, its more like discussing.
I dont think we argue much over the lore either, theres enough of us here who know the lore well enough for it not to be a point of discussion.
I hope that, if the mongoose doesn't return then they'll at least have something to replace it
Did they even say it would return? i know it's too soon to announce alot of stuff in the game but still
Mongoose was the best vehicle in Halo 3 IMHO.
[QUOTE=mac338;36076044]Mongoose was the best vehicle in Halo 3 IMHO.[/QUOTE]
It was my favorite vehicle
unfortunately i suck at driving on halo 3, ODST and reach
I remember on Sandtrap I was speeding a mongoose along the long stone thing in the middle and right before the big gap a hornet flew up so I drove off and landed on it, managed to stop too. 90% of the time you fall off, even if you try with a friend, but mine got partially lodged on top. The hornet pilot was a bro despite being on the enemy team so he carefully dropped me off at the other side, shit was awesome. One my favorite Halo 3 moments, one of many.

Well it was definately the best vehicle they've added in terms of practical use, wish it was faster than the hog though.

I know that everybody is probably gonna disagree with me, but i really want a mech vehicle
it'd definitely be awesome if on the back of it a mongoose was attached to it and could be deployed
Will Microsoft ever allow a Halo game back onto pc?

Either in a future OS promotion, or if they drop out of the console market. Otherwise it's not going to happen.

Agreed. If the PS3 and Wii hadn't sold so well, and Call of Duty wasn't a constant release window competitor, I'd say they wouldn't mind, but right now Halo is MGS' primary (and near only) first party flagship.

I always prefered the hog over the mongoose...
Though, speaking of vehicles, I always thought the reverant was just too gloriously overpowered in many ways, it's not a very fun vehicle I find

Reach wasn't as Halo-y as the other games and just didn't feel as fun, even though it was technically better in pretty much every way.
So I don't think of it when people ask me about my favorite X in Halo.

Yeah, I am more inclined to include it, there were many things I liked, a few things I didn't, it's such a same that dual weilding is gone, but what's worse is that they didn't compensate lack of dual wielding for the Spiker or Plasma Rifle
Wow, Halo Waypoint is truly horrible. Someone made a post defending teabagging, claiming it was a tradition. Then, another user replied by saying "Slavery was a tradition, too."
Someone just compared teabagging to slavery. Kill me now.
I've never gone on Waypoint.

I think you're kind of missing the point of his post.
He's saying that just because something is a tradition doesn't mean you should do it.

Yeah, I get his point, I just think it was a pretty extreme comparison.
it wasn't a comparison
FINE GEEZ I guess I'm just overly sensitive or something.

Like Kombat said, it wasn't a comparison. He was saying that 'it's tradition' isn't a good excuse for anything.

[QUOTE]We're working on something pretty interesting for the Halo 4 OST. Potentially a second disc of remixes. Wanted to think about it as a compelling counterpart to the "narrative" flow of the main OST, so we could keep that "pure" but work with some top electronic musicians to do something else ona separate disc, something you could play in the car without driving too dramatically or crying.
If it comes together the way we think it will, it's going to be pretty amazing.[/QUOTE]
Halo Waypoint Forums are a shithole anyways, there's little to none intelligent discussion going on there. Even if there is, it's usually a retarded argument backed up with intelligent looking arguments to make it look less retarded.

It's the BNet forums. That's all it is.
All the Halo fans migrated from the Bungie forums to the Waypoint forums, so basically all the idiots from the Bungie forums are doing equally idiotic shit on the Waypoint forums.

That sounds pretty cool.
Gamestop 'Exclusive Skins' revealed.
Don't get to upset they're just Camos. I can live without them, although I will be getting them anyways since I buy my games from gamestop.

Camo that helps you blend in at barber shops or the north pole.
CAMOS?

Its a Pre-order skin, so anyone who pre-orders from gamestop (which will be quite a few people) will have them. I'll only use the BR one.
Does anyone know where Blackout takes place? I just assume it's in the Norwegian sea right off the coast of Spitsbergen.
