The Halo Thread V12: The Last Thread Turned Into A Bridge - Games

[QUOTE=Terin7;49034391]Reach AR bugged me a bit with the ammo counter extruding from the gun. Felt like "How do we justify more polygons this thing?" Same with the plasma pistol having things pop out of it. But that's just intense netpicking[/QUOTE] It never bothered me because a lot of Reach was Bungie acknowledging and takes things for the EU and one of those was the fact that the ammo counter and the entire electronic suite was an attachable unit that could be taken off. The Reach AR looked like what I imagine the normal AR's electronic suite looks like just without an outer casing, which fits considering the skeletal look of the gun. Sort of like if you've ever seen the F2000 scope without its cover, its just a normal tube scope [img]http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/battlefield/images/e/e8/F2000_std_dis.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20140806153940[/img] the "how do we justify more polygons" comment is really how I feel about Halo 4/5 armour designs though. So many of them have greebly up the ass, especially the ones that have the really wonky visor shapes that make no sense practically but the designers though looked cool.

[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;49033443]I think Reach had the perfect armour since it was just detailed enough to were it matched Halo 3 while still looking like old tech. [thumb]http://halo.bungie.net/images/games/Reach/images/screenshots/80610/SCREENSHOTS/1920/Reach_LnoS_Cinematic01.jpg[/thumb] The only 343i armour that I like are their version of the scout helmet and Helioskrill. I mainly like Helioskrill since it makes sense why it'd be designed like that.

[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;49034220]Oooh ok my bad I don't actually know the rankings in Halo 5 I just know my top csr thing is Diamond.[/QUOTE] Are you one of them diamond 1 scrubs? My pal and I play onyx level chumperino. But seriously the ranking in this game is reminiscent of Halo 3 and I love it. I wish there was a casual playlist too but I don't mind going all out all the time

I miss the armour permutations in Reach that added pouches. That's something that always bothered me about halo is where they kept their ammo. The Mark V in Halo CE had pouches but it wasn't until Reach that they sort of addressed that issue. I remember it coming up in the books too, where they didn't have any way to carry extra magazines and gear so they just duct taped it to their armour. I remember Halo 4 having an armour permutation that had pouches but I remember it looking weird, and I think I saw one for Halo 5 too, but I didnt really get a good look at it. [editline]2nd November 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=Falstad007;49034583]I miss thinking that all the Spartans had the same kind of uniform armor like the MK V in Halo: CE.[/QUOTE] Honestly when each individual piece of armour costs millions of dollars/credits/whatever, you would think that the military would want to make the armour more uniform to save money, especially when its going to get damaged and need to be replaced. Unless Spartans don't get payed in money but in the ability to customize their armour, which really wouldn't surprise me.

[QUOTE=Falstad007;49034583]I miss thinking that all the Spartans had the same kind of uniform armor like the MK V in Halo: CE.[/QUOTE] They had that until Halo 4 Noble Team was just doing whatever

[QUOTE=Bathtub;49034788]Buying armor is just a multiplayer mechanic, it doesn't have an actual place in the lore of the game.[/QUOTE] Then why does every Spartan IV/ Blue Team have different armour? I didn't mean buying the armour like in Reach, I meant realistically how much a suit of armour that does what Mjolnir armour does must cost and then adding on to that special, custom pieces. [editline]2nd November 2015[/editline] Even more so now in 5 where every section of armour has a thrusters strong enough to hold a ton aloft in the air.

Everything will be explained with space magic.

[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;49034842]They had that until Halo 4 Noble Team was just doing whatever[/QUOTE] Not just Noble Team. Remember all those dead spartans on Lone Wolf?

[QUOTE=Makol;49034198]Rankings in order Bronze Silver Gold Platinum Diamond Onyx Champion[/QUOTE] Oh shit what, i thought onyx was a low rank, wooh i'm somewhat decent.

[QUOTE=TheJunction;49035279]Oh shit what, i thought onyx was a low rank, wooh i'm somewhat decent.[/QUOTE] Little more than decent. Champion the next rank up is top 200 in the playlist

Is it just me, or the camera moves slower than people? Like, the enemy is moving, and I'm shooting at them with my AR, but my camera doesn't move as quickly as the enemy moves.

[QUOTE=Zero_;49035750]Is it just me, or the camera moves slower than people? Like, the enemy is moving, and I'm shooting at them with my AR, but my camera doesn't move as quickly as the enemy moves.[/QUOTE] I think that's partially the aim assist, but not sure.

[QUOTE=RikohZX;49035819]I think that's partially the aim assist, but not sure.[/QUOTE] I don't think that's it. Like, the enemy is moving to my right, so I follow him with my camera to continue shooting him, but the camera isn't fast enough to follow him.

You should probably up your sensitivity.

[QUOTE=Sharp_Shooter;49035935]You should probably up your sensitivity.[/QUOTE] Will try doing that, thanks.

[QUOTE=Zero_;49035874]I don't think that's it. Like, the enemy is moving to my right, so I follow him with my camera to continue shooting him, but the camera isn't fast enough to follow him.[/QUOTE] Your sensitivity is decreased slightly when your crosshair turns red/gets close to an enemy, that might be throwing you off

He was simply playing on too low a sensitivity - which in itself is an issue. It's the main reason I hate playing shooters with thumbsticks and is a problem that's really not going to be overcome without developing a new peripheral.

any FP fireteams going atm?

Anyone notice the chapter title when you get the second scorpion is named "Call me Cupid"? Johnson would be proud.
