[QUOTE=XanaToast.;23758356]funny thing about the first halo. shooting a jackels shield redirects the bullet into the nearest enemy's anus. i loved the ricochet effect[/QUOTE]Yeah this actually still is in the game. Let's just say that Hunters shouldn't hang around jackals.

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;23759062]It's still there.[/QUOTE] i know :[

I need to pre-order Halo: Reach now... I can't wait 21 days. [editline]02:06PM[/editline] Also FUCKING SHIT I HATE THE LIBRARY. [editline]02:07PM[/editline] FUCK YOU GUILTY SPARK

21 days??? its the 1st of august and it comes out on the 14th of september... [editline]07:09PM[/editline] 45 days away [editline]07:12PM[/editline] WAIT!!!! does preorder allow early access to the game?

Why the hell would it? This ain't on steam boeh!

why the hell would it be on steam I MEAN THE BLOODY XBOX [editline]07:26PM[/editline] jesus christ i must know NAUOGH

It doesn't. They already had a Beta. [editline]01:35PM[/editline] Or did you mean early FULL access? [editline]01:36PM[/editline] Either way no. But you get a nifty little 48-hour Gold Subscription.

I wish Halo PC had co-op mode. Too bad that the AI doesn't sync when you're playing online. I'm gonna go play Halo PC again.

Reach is looking fucking tasty. I guarantee I'm going to spend upwards 72 hours just on forge world.

I shall make magic in Forge World. Forge World Magic.

King of the Hill. Make an indestructible Falcon as the hill. Set the level height limiters low. All players have unlimited plasma pistol ammo, but limited rocket launchers. Four teams. Final destination.

[QUOTE=P1X3L N1NJA;23757538]Reach wasnt terraformed it was already like that when it was colonized. I dont think there even is terraforming in the Halo universe. And the thing about the birds if you found a planet like ours and there was life on it the animals there would be very simular to Earth animals as thats just how theyve evolved to live in the enviroment. Also Zezibesh they do exsist but the reason I probably never noticed them before is because there camo is terrible I probably didnt notice they were supposed to be invisible.[/QUOTE] Lrn2colonyhistory. Humans always introduce new animals and fuck up the ecosystem a bit before it settles. I fail to believe they didn't terraform it even a little.

[QUOTE=BmB;23762394]Lrn2colonyhistory. Humans always introduce new animals and fuck up the ecosystem a bit before it settles.

Yuck, little Details. All I wanna do is kill the birds. Unless given the option to mount one.

[quote]Terraforming (literally, "Earth-forming") of a planet, moon, or other body is the hypothetical process of deliberately modifying its atmosphere, temperature, surface topography or ecology to be similar to those of Earth to make it habitable by terran organisms.[/quote] Thus the word "terra" and not "atmos"

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;23762576]Thus the word "terra" and not "atmos"[/QUOTE] Yeah but no where does it involve introducing animals...... When we brought horses to America they didnt call that terraforming because Horses have nothing to do with the terrain, tempreture or atmosphere. Terraforming is a concept.

That's because horses are already native to Earth. If we brought horses to Mars that would be terraforming.

Of course humans are going to introduce familiar species, they need something to eat after all. Your America example sucks since horses already existed on this planet. How can we terraform Earth? We can't.

I would say something about this as introducing live stock would be terraforming but one thing has just hit my mind. Why we are arguing about this when there not even real animals from earth its a ostrich dinosaur from outer space.

double post

Why are we arguing about unrelated shit? Shouldn't we be talking about the fucking awesome space ostriches? From space?

No! No more ostriches theres enough threads on B.net saying "Derp whats a moa?" or "How many will you kill lol?"

Mmm.... [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bknNudJc2LI[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XCdkglYNLdo[/media] Shit like this is why I love Bungie, and Halo. You just don't get that level of granularity in other games. The simulation is good, the game logic so conceptually well formed from day one. :3: Can't wait to see the shit that might happen in the "expanded sandbox" of Reach.

Did anyone ever see that IGN rewind theater that had so many errors. He called the Truth and Reconciliation the Pillar of autumn.

I meant 21 days until my birthday when I pre-order Reach

[QUOTE=Janus Vesta;23765155]Fuck, my router is a piece of shit and drops my connection every 30 minutes. Now I need to buy a better one.[/QUOTE] Did you read the article at all? It knows if its a connection loss or not. [quote]Jarrard didn't get much more specific, just said that they have advanced ragequit recognition heuristics to make sure they're not cracking down on people who accidentally drop their net connection.[/quote] Still you should get a new router. Apparently, according to the comments, an early version of this system was in the beta. [editline]05:38PM[/editline] It probably reads if you disconnect, then reconnect to a different server, and bases it on the stats of the match you just quit out of. Thats my theory
