The Halo Thread - Games - Facepunch Forum

I might be getting a 360 for mah birthday. And Halo 3 and Wireless Attachment all the way, then its time for Xbox live 12 month Gold the next week, and I'll be up for any Halo 3 games. Problem is, is the facepunchreach account ONLY for Reach players? OR for general Halo players? I've got a Halo PC CD Key, I bought the game. Are you able to play online on 360?

Its general Halo.

No

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;24359150]No[/QUOTE] Fuck.

Meh Halo PC is better anyway.

[QUOTE=343N;24359103]By my last question, I mean, is it possible to play Halo CE on 360 online/matchmaking?[/QUOTE] lmao! anyway if your birthday is after sept 14th, get reach then dude

Yeah, try and get Reach instead.

[QUOTE=frothtastic;24359522]lmao! anyway if your birthday is after sept 14th, get reach then dude[/QUOTE] It was on the 24th, if you saw my thread on being scared of staying home, you would know I am twelve now.

Can't wait for multiplayer, got my Recon Helmet, Multi-Threat Armor, HALO nameplate, Flaming Helmet and Elite Armor :v: Well, happy birthday for then you should get Reach when it comes out.

[QUOTE=cephalopoid;24357663]That is because fanboys/12 year olds don't know how to construct an argument. Anyway, I've been playing Halo 2-3 and Halo PC for the past few weeks. And although I'm excited about Reach, I know there will be somethings that will be different . . . things I'll miss. For one thing, I'm not sure I'll feel the same about killing an Elite after Halo 3. I'll feel like I'm effing MC and the Marines over for when the Elites break from the Covenant to help with the flood. I'll miss fighting Brutes. I loved when the got pissed and charged. I'll miss the overwhelming sense of dread when walking into an area and hearing that sound. . . that fucking sound grapes being stepped on and the weird growls that are the flood. Bungie keeps repeating that Reach is in many ways going back to their original formula that made Halo so great. But one thing I loved about the first game is that it was this killer action game, then became an FPS survival horror game, then became a cluster fuck of 3 factions duking it out. I remember playing CE for the first time and shitting my pants when the flood. I was playing in the dark . . . and for the rest of the game there were times I jumped out of my seat. Will Reach have anything [I]scary?[/I] I'll miss walking into an area, and trying to decide if I should: Kill Flood first. Kill Sentinals first. Kill Covey first. Try to sneak by. Try to run by. Start hucking 'nades and blow everything up. It seems reach will manly be a two sided war, which will be fun, but I'll miss having that third/fourth party X factor to deal with. I hope that the "wildlife" in Reach will by dynamic enough to be territorial and kill whatever comes near it. Any one else feel the same?[/QUOTE] The brutes are in Reach. And who knows, maybe there will be something like the Flood this time around.

[QUOTE=Cheryl Cole;24359981]The brutes are in Reach. And who knows, maybe there will be something like the Flood this time around.[/QUOTE] Brutes? Thank god, killing just covenant is annoying. No flood? That's another good thing, two things, 1. They scare the FUCK out of you. Example: "Oh thank god there are no more enemies here, I need to recharge. Oh hey little fell--- GET THE FUCK OFF OF ME YOU SHIT STOP BITING ME *gunshots like mad*" 2. They are outright annoying.

Ahh, I remember Halo CE for the Xbox. My brother and I made up this gamemode where we wouldn't fire our weapons at all, we would just run round a closed map and beat each other up with melee. GOOD TIMES

IF only we could have matches like that in Halo 3, that'd be fun. But it's all HURR ONLINE MLG.

I was TKed for the flag. Half a meter from the point. In Social Big Team. :geno:

[QUOTE=the_killer24;24360972]I was TKed for the flag. Half a meter from the point. In Social Big Team. :geno:[/QUOTE] Sadly enough, shit like that happens.

I really really wish I could play Halo 3 to finish the story. But I can't buy a console for a single game. I just can't. :smith:

[QUOTE=PistolKid;24317803]I thought they made it quite clear that Master Chief was the last and only remaining Spartan?[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=Mattz333;24318169][sp] Pillar of Autumn had two Spartans aboard, John-117 and Linda-058. Linda was critically wounded on Station Gamma and put into cryo sleep once aboard PoA. Johnson and Jenkins were both on the station too, and were rescued onto the PoA. She was ejected with most other crew still in cryo when Keyes decided to land PoA on Halo. Meanwhile there were quite a few spartans on the ground of reach, with a handful surviving the initial glassing. Prior to and during the events of Halo 2 there was a Spartan team on earth, who left aboard a covenant frigate soon after MC jumped to Delta halo aboard In Amber Clad. [/sp][/QUOTE] The books don't fucking count. Master Chief is the last Spartan, end of. [editline]03:10PM[/editline] @above: you could buy it for every of the now 5 Halo games.

Sooooo do any kind souls have spare xbox live subscription codes or anything :h: I really wanna play some Big Team on H3, I haven't played for months and I kinda wanna get back into the swing of things for Reach.

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;24318965]Well, uh, maybe get Nylund to do it? Or some other good author.[/QUOTE] "Nylund", "Good". Sorry, I must laugh. :(

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;24358858]MW2[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=Zezibesh;24358858]Realistic Combat[/QUOTE] :argh: I just send those people a link to the ArmA 2 Demo, ask them if it's realistic enough for them and wait 2 hours for "WTF THIS GAME SUCKS!!!" [QUOTE=343N;24360240]IF only we could have matches like that in Halo 3, that'd be fun. But it's all HURR ONLINE MLG.[/QUOTE] I love having fun private games with "honour rules" like that One fun thing I liked to do was 3v3 team death match on Forge. Edit mode is set party leader only and (s)he will act as a "game master" giving both teams their bases and equipment. If the game starts getting boring, the game master will give imaginary objectives or more equipment to the teams. Most objectives we gave involved a radio tower or the wrecked ship in the middle of Valhalla.

New live action trailer = [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JOUzkE02h00[/media] God fucking damn it it looks awesome.

Beautiful.

Sorry but I had to laugh at Kat getting owned like that. (Pretty sure that was her.)

[QUOTE=Trooper-guy1;24362123]Sorry but I had to laugh at Kat getting owned like that. (Pretty sure that was her.)[/QUOTE] Yep, the UI says Kat when she's arming the bomb.

[QUOTE=BmB;24361246]"Nylund", "Good". Sorry, I must laugh. :([/QUOTE] Compared to other Halo authors, of course. [editline]05:51PM[/editline] Finally a good live-action trailer. I'm guessing that was a Fury nuke? [editline]05:58PM[/editline] Kat doesn't seem to have her robot arm in the trailer, so it's either an oversight, OR a depiction of how the previous Noble 6 died.
