The Halo Thread V13: Great, this guy's OP again? - Games

Anyone play Halo 5 during the later EST hours? Feel free to add me, I play warzone mostly but will be down for anything :^) SGT Spartans [editline]8th February 2017[/editline] Also giving away a Gold Gift Pack that I dont want to see in my inventory anymore.

[QUOTE=The Jack;51794255]I kinda hate how the reclaimer saga's lore makes us sound like we're talking about [i]The Lord of the Rings[/I] in space.[/QUOTE] Tbh, there was always a HEAVY element of that since the beginning.

If you ever wondered how big the (ingame) PoA was compared to the island in the Silent Cartographer, I got you covered [t]http://i.imgur.com/eptZJyyh.jpg[/t]

For EU lore, we now have the outposts on the Ark coming into play. We have whatever Bastion is, and its possible link to Bornstellar and his children. If a ring features, it could possibly be coupled to the composer to serve as range booster. Onyx receives a new novel about it at the end of the year. And an extragalactic Flood invasion is still possible, if Iris is taken literally...

Halcyon cruisers are about 1.1km long Funny how the warthog run in the maw is around 3.5km though

well shit, it really is way too small. [t]http://i.imgur.com/fiZALpv.png[/t] (compared to a 1.1km cubed...cube) Here's a more accurate view. I could see this destroying some stuff. [t]http://i.imgur.com/sytTtOo.jpg[/t]

[QUOTE=chipsnapper2;51797706]Jesus, Adjutant works with Halo 1 .maps?[/QUOTE] It does (I think?) but I'm using a tool called "Halo CE BSP Tag Converter" and HEK+ to extract the BSP files

[QUOTE=chipsnapper2;51797706]Jesus, Adjutant works with Halo 1 .maps?[/QUOTE] Having just tested it I can confirm that adjutant works on literally everything up to Anniversary, where it kinda only reads some textures

those are legitimately great I've missed ads like those

Atriox is looking to be a real high level strategist there.

Looks like the Reach helmets are finally here.

Man much as I hated the Cutter redesign at first Gideon's really selling it for me. The guy sure can act

[QUOTE=The Jack;51799564]Atriox is looking to be a real high level strategist there.[/QUOTE] He wins both times though.

[QUOTE=FlandersNed;51802602]He wins both times though.[/QUOTE] Exactly. He won both times by playing Cutter and have everything go ~just as planned~

[QUOTE=Wulfram;51803029]Exactly. He won both times by playing Cutter and have everything go ~just as planned~[/QUOTE] I wouldn't say just as planned. In the car dealer video, Cutter recorded him going berserk, so he can still use that against him for the shotty car. Also do you think Atriox will be allowed through airport security when they land? All that armor with spikes on it?

Related to that size comparison discussion on the last page: this video was posted on reddit, a bit cringy but I think it gives a better sense of scale since the hangars where the longswords/pelicans are visible from the side of the ship.

My friend and I just finished our preparatory run of Halo Wars on Heroic to get ready for Halo Wars 2. We'd started on Legendary, but Arcadia City had us bring things down a notch after we kept getting our asses handed to us. I am so ready to finally get more of the Spirit of Fire, and her crew.

[QUOTE=death2sarge;51812052][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/bHBOqZs.jpg[/IMG] So i found this in Ireland at a CEX store[/QUOTE] Reverse Image Search is giving me nothing. That appears to be an entirely unique painting. EDIT: Just letting you know that I posted it on reddit and gave you credit here: [url]https://www.reddit.com/r/halo/comments/5tlglh/weve_all_thought_about_it_at_some_point/ddnc60u/?utm_content=permalink&utm_medium=api&utm_source=reddit&utm_name=halo[/url]

So I've been playing through Halo 1 again, having not done so in ages. I forgot how hard this game nosedives in the second half, holy shit. Rocket Launcher Flood make me cry.
