If they do, they'll probably delete it and send me a warning, in which case so be it.

The new clan recruits are higher ranking than me. [I]UNACCEPTABLE[/I]

[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;50095223]This is already way more interesting then Halo 4 and Halo 5[/QUOTE] As an overall plot? Perhaps. But another one of this guy's videos I found far more interesting. [video=youtube;PYTKqJTncFw]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYTKqJTncFw[/video] I've been wondering about the parallel between Halsey's creation of the Spartans and Cortana's awakening of the Guardians for a while now. The idea of Cortana slowly regressing into Halsey is actually very well thought out (Cortana being based on a living brain, not to mention the Domain "fixing" her), but it's been crammed into the story with virtually no previous setup and never made clear to the player despite being the most important part of the plot. It would have been so much better if they had just made a book based on an alternate ending of Halo 4 to explore the concept, rather than as a main entry in the series. It's stuff like this that's the saddest part of the new Halo games, 343's writers can come up with some incredible concepts, it's just that they don't know how to use them.

Anyone down for some Arena or Warzone tonight? GT is SPARTAN11110000

[QUOTE=KingKombat;50096961]i get full credit for the idea right[/QUOTE] I'll post it under your name even :)

[QUOTE=RikohZX;50095110]They were literally the Precursors reborn as an infectious and corrupted entity. Starting with stuff post-Bungie, apparently the entire original trilogy they were just testing humanity for if they were strong enough to take the title of the Mantle. It wouldn't surprise me if ONI was playing dangerous with their attempts to make humanity the dominant species, though. We already know the Flood still exist, the question is just what Argent Moon is supposed to fully be. Although it doesn't help that Hunt the Truth and certain things in Escalation made it seem like ONI may finally start taking a bit of the spotlight in the main plot. Instead they're entirely background yet again, but it seems they're still setting up potential future plot points.[/QUOTE] Maybe they should fire Brian Reed and replace him with whoever wrote HTT since they clearly have a better idea of how to write an engaging and consistent story, so that in the future the shit we expect from marketing actually lines up with the end result.

I mean obviously it's metal, but it looks like there's not even a hint of weathering or oxidation. Nice job on the port though!

They forgot what it means to have dirt and grime on things, particularly in 4.

Anybody up for playing a few rounds

We'll shoot you an invite in a second.

[QUOTE=RikohZX;50097695]I imagine that's either not all the texture layers fully applied yet, or on 343's shoulders. They forgot what it means to have dirt and grime on things, particularly in 4.[/QUOTE] I applied the materials as Adjutant suggested. Unfortunately it being a third-party program I could be missing a grime map, but iirc halo 4 maps are incredibly shiny like this. I was considering adding some frost, since it's supposed to be absurdly high in the air.

More of you should get on and play with Makol, optimussentinel, Overwatch, and I.

So... who ok'd how the Guardians look? They don't even resemble anything Forerunner even remotely, let alone anything [I]good[/I]

Originally I was in the company Is it possible to make elevators in forge?

[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;50099885]Is it possible to make elevators in forge?[/QUOTE] With scripting, basically anything is possible. An elevator should be a piece of cake.
