Daft Posted October 19, 2007 Posted October 19, 2007 http://www.collegehumor.com/video:1781477 thats a well funny way to die haha Ahhh, the deadly traffic cone!!
KKOB Posted October 19, 2007 Posted October 19, 2007 Ahhh, the deadly traffic cone!! I wish i could get killed like that, i'm going to need to have some serious coffee before i play halo again . . . reaction times were so slow!
Daft Posted October 19, 2007 Posted October 19, 2007 Is there some kind of default option I can switch off where really crap don't constantly joining my team forcing me to get almost half the kills every game??
Charlie Posted October 19, 2007 Posted October 19, 2007 Is there some kind of default option I can switch off where really crap don't constantly joining my team forcing me to get almost half the kills every game?? You can change the settings so you get matched with people closer to your level. But really the only way to do it is keep on playing and move up the ranks or go in with friends so there aren't any spaces in your team.
Daft Posted October 19, 2007 Posted October 19, 2007 I'm ranked 11 and I got dumped in a 3v3 with 2 people on 3....... I'm probably going to get annoyed either way thinking about it. If I'm on a good team I'll get annoyed I didn't do the best and if I'm on a rubbish team I'll be annoyed I had to do most of the work!! There's no pleasing some people! Edit: Just had an awesome match. This has to be the pick of the death animations! I call it the neck breaker!!
Dan_Dare Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 I'd just like to mention something: the Hyabusa armour is the biggest pile of shit to ever befoul the waters of gaming. true story.
Daft Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 I'd just like to mention something: the Hyabusa armour is the biggest pile of shit to ever befoul the waters of gaming. true story. Any reason....except for the fact that everyone seems to be wearing it?
Solo Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 That armour does actually make me want to puke when I see everyone wearing it.
Daft Posted October 21, 2007 Posted October 21, 2007 I hope they release more helmets in an update. I think you should be able to give your helmet a custom paint job even if you are in a team.
Noodleman Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 Infection has been added to ranked matches for today only.
gaggle64 Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 It's bloody annoying, isn't it? Rankings don't care if your team-mates quit out, if your team loses your team loses. Just one of many I reasons I hate ranks, levels, gamer points and just about any other perceived numerical system to define a player's "skill" that's ever been added to any competitive game of any kind on any system, anywhere, ever.
chrizkerr2 Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 I didn't get to play Halo at all today, so could someone fill me in on what the special "seasonal" event which Bungie said they were gunna do on Halloween was about?
chrizkerr2 Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 Look two posts up. Ya I see it now Managed to even get afew games of it in, since it didn't finish till around 3:00 or something. What was good about it, was that you get achievements in the playlist, so managed to get my "Steppin Razor" and "Overkill" easily
gaggle64 Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 So far I have to say the Halo 3 campaign is better then I thought it would be, better then Halo 2 at any rate. Not that that would be a hard thing mind. There's a couple of nice set pieces which helps mix things up, but the whole thing still feels a bit constricted and skittish compared to the epic simplicity of the original. Cortana's really starting to piss me off too. In fact there's a lot of story, seemingly in a bid to emulate Half Life 2, but neither the script or the voice acting is good enough to justify itself. Also, why can't the earth forces be as intelligent as the Covenant? Being completely and utterly inebriated while at the wheel seems to have become mandatory military procedure in the 26th century.

At one point they all just stand around doing sod all except watch you take on a scarab one on one.
Aalborg Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 im playing through this on legendary... slowly.. as im getting killed a lot. and somtimes i give up. Like in crows nest with that room filled with brutes.. startede the level over and this time around brought a turret from one of the other rooms.. and voila.. Yesterday i started on the Highway level and after a couple of tries brought down the first barrier.. inside the tunnel I left my warthog to do some snooping around.. bad idea.. I was suddently run over by the other warthog.. first i was furious.. but then I had to laugh.. I could see how they would have to "filter the news".. They probably wouldnt tell that Master Chief was run over and killed by some stupid grunt.. but something along the lines.. "Master chief was ambushed today by 10000 Brutes.. he managed to kill 9999 of them but was stabbed in the back by the last cowardly brute".. ahhh And I like to use the turret a lot ind the back of the warthog.. but then some stupid grunt have to jump in and starte driving it around and getting us both killed or stuck somewhere... ha ha ha ha.. they could include som kind of wheel lock so that this wouldnt happen
gaggle64 Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 Dear god, I simply loathe this level where you're crawling around inside the Flood/Gravemind/Covenant Ship thing. Everything looks the same so you have no idea where you're going, and the wall hangers keep blowing me away from a distance while I'm too busy defending myself against the ground troops. There doesn't seem to be any sort of difficulty curve. The previous couple of levels I could have done in my sleep (unhelpful allies not withstanding), while the first three levels or so kicked my ass up and down the room until my cheeks had polished the floor to a mirror shine.
jayseven Posted November 5, 2007 Posted November 5, 2007 been playing co-op legendary with Shorty last night. We did about two thirds of it, finding the first couple of levels easier than we did on heroic - I guess we just rock :P Yeah, the cortana level does suck. When on heroic with shorty, I just ran though all the time - shorty died a bit, but when I got far enough he just warped to where I was. Definitely the worst level in teh game.
Letty Posted November 6, 2007 Posted November 6, 2007 I kept accidently swording Jordan in that level, then falling to my death, which lead to beatings and foul language : (
Mundi Posted November 7, 2007 Posted November 7, 2007 I kept accidently swording Jordan in that level, then falling to my death, which lead to beatings and foul language : ( Thats why video games are for manly men! HURRR! *growths a beard*
Aalborg Posted November 7, 2007 Posted November 7, 2007 argh.. im stuck.. on day 3 at that place in Tsavo Highway where you have to take out a "few" brutes and a Wraith.. on legendary.. its of course fun trying new approaches, and I already have a new plan I have to try out when i get home, but boy... it sure is tough
gaggle64 Posted November 7, 2007 Posted November 7, 2007 Phew, finally finished (on heroic, anyway) None of the story made a lot of sense, there's no stable difficulty curve, AI seems a bit drunk and the final boss battle was farcical at best. On the plus side there are some nice set pieces and some entertaining levels, the vehicle combat is still engaging and the whole thing is technically and visually very well polished. Still, I get the impression that the campaign feels somewhat half finished, with humanity's last stand never really materialising as advertised. What happened to all the invading Covenant on Earth anyway?
Shorty Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 Finished on Legendary SO what was that looked like a planet, or a disk or something, with twinkly sci-fi lights, like the arc or the back of Halo. MENACING. I want Halo IV! Also I want to get my gold membership back for some online-age and achievements. Quick Q) Do you get the achievement for destroying a vehicle with 'equipment' by using a trip mine?
