I was testing it out AS I TYPED IT. You dumbass.

[QUOTE=Janus Vesta;26563645]I was testing it out AS I TYPED IT.

Armor lock does not stall the recharging process in any way.

Yeah, I just loaded up Forge to test it out. Sorry about that, I never noticed it recharge before.

[QUOTE=Voice of Reason;26563519]Anything like this? [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3db17gQ8XTs[/media][/QUOTE] Too cheerful, friend, This track is very lonely, and its somewhat dark. The closest thing I can get to it is this beta HL2 song. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nT97va-GpHM[/media] That shit creeps me the fuck out. I cant tell you how much this music makes me feel strange, I know it must make you all feel weird, but I am legitimately unsettled, I feel like leaving the room, or going somewhere.

[QUOTE=the_killer24;26563577]wrong so wrong so wrong it's not funny wwwwwwwwwwwrrrrrrrrroooooooonnnnnnnnngggggggggg[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=the_killer24;26563616]wrong but yeah, you guys clearly need to read your shield bar when using armor lock more often[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=the_killer24;26563799]:frogdowns:[/QUOTE] Dude, no need to be an asshole. Yeah, I didn't know that your shield can recharge if you go into armour lock the millisecond your shield breaks. I apologised, you don't have to be a dick about it. And my original point still stands. If you go into armour lock you can't move, shoot or reload, and your shields will only be starting to recharge, meanwhile your opponent has time to back up, reload and charge his shields. If you can counter an armour lock on foot you're doing it wrong.

Someone, if possible, please get a theater clip of this music. I'll render it on Bungie.net for you. [QUOTE=Janus Vesta;26563715]Yeah, I just loaded up Forge to test it out.

Well guys, I was going to post relevant info or a story about Halo, but ever since I got that box I just cant do it. I'm defeated. You win Firefox42, you and your uncanny ability to click has destroyed my confidence. I shall now retire to the loser's den.

Goddamit Firefox42, you completely ruined my motivation to bring attention to a game-changing feature in Reach. Now the community will never know the secrets of how to kill people while they're in armour lock.

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jGHnEz80rI[/media] Love this song, has such a mysterious feel to it. Also brings back memories of when I first played through Halo: Combat Evolved.

[QUOTE=New Cidem;26556899]Typically this music plays when Ordinance has been deployed, but may go on into the round. Its rather beepy, no real rhythm or purpose, very haphazard. It often plays on Courtyard, but its played for me one other time on the map that "The Pillar Of Autumn" takes place on, and whose name escapes me. It's quite unsettling, and I find that it makes me want to quit the round. I may be just fooling myself, but I notice that this music is sometimes accompanied by Elite Rangers, but I don't know for sure. The significance of this strange and rather unfitting music has yet to be determined. Everything gets quiet too, I think the covenant forces deployed become quieter and talk less. The only thing that helps is murdering the enemies constantly to drown out the music. Im not saying that there are Ghosts Of Halo, but this music is very suspicious, as Firefight is not a creepy setting and does not fit this music, nor does the situation of receiving new weapons. If we look further into this, maybe get some Theater recordings, we can determine the reason for this creepy ass music.[/QUOTE] Sorry if i'm late, or this has already been posted, but would it be this music?

Why Don't I remember it from CE?

I FUCKING Hate Fuel Rod Grunts on Firefight - They just fuck up your day, take up your ammo (8 shots with a magnum... Seriously?) and kill you faster than you can put them into your sights. :smith: It's messing up my attempts to get perfectionist and I'm left wondering if it's 50 games just to get Iron for it, what's Onyx gonna be...

(playing on normal)

Just picked up on my legendary campaign again. I hate when you have to clear the area to set the charges on the cloaking device on Nightfall. I've died so many times. But, on the bright side, I've cleared through one and a half missions so far. Going to go do some work and pick up on it again after.

[editline]8th December 2010[/editline] System, don't you just hate when Jun falls off the edge during the fight and you don't notice it until the hunters are cleared so you have to restart the whole damn level because the door won't open?

Protip (seriously, read this): If you jam a forklift close enough to the wall, you can dismount and appear on the other side of it. Sometimes works, sometimes doesn't, but persist and you'll go through eventually. I can't remember, but I think if you do do this then the enemies on the other side of the wall don't spawn, either. I might be wrong.

When you mean enemies, are you including just the Phantom that spawns or the shades and everything?

[QUOTE=the_killer24;26573104]When you mean enemies, are you including just the Phantom that spawns or the shades and everything?[/QUOTE] Like I said, I don't remember, but I believe [I]everything[/I] beyond the gate is despawned. However, it is still pretty close to the end of the mission anyway. Still helpful, though, because those goddamn shade turrets shoot fast as shit.

I swear in the hands of the AI they're like a pair of linked miniguns.

[QUOTE=the_killer24;26573389]I swear in the hands of the AI they're like a pair of linked miniguns.[/QUOTE] Then you shoot them and they're really slow.

I know. Humans really need something like a quadmount .50.

So with this new MLG playlist people like xXMyNoScOpEsR2LeGiT4UXx420 are gonna have to choose between that and SWAT. I can see it already - their minds being unable to choose what form of "Pro" gametype to go with...
