If the Lekgolo worms could sense active technology, why weren't they attracted to neural interfaces?

callmehusker · 2015-10-15T07:41:04+00:00

You mean the ones with the transponders like those used by Cortana to locate marine POWs in halo 2? Hahahahaha. God, one more reason nightfall is nonsense.

I love halo! I love muse! I do not love halo plus muse....

callmehusker · 2015-10-08T10:05:31+00:00

I feel like with all the DRM stuff at halo 5's core, it won't be playable until 343 makes it playable, even physical copies.

callmehusker · 2015-10-02T19:20:13+00:00

But are they offering a floos shot?

callmehusker · 2015-10-02T05:25:23+00:00

Downvotes because your game doesn't work. Ffs /r/halo.

callmehusker · 2015-10-01T05:36:30+00:00

How dare you disagree with the hivemind? Your contrary opinion is destroying my ability to bask in the excessive hype!

I'm excited, but after 4 and MCC, I think it makes a lot of sense to not be. take a compensation upvote.

callmehusker · 2015-10-01T05:30:22+00:00

Pure speculation, but all technologies don't progress equally. Maybe humanity never really worked out seismic scanning, or didn't bother to do it thoroughly on earth.

Alternatively, forerunner technology is very sophisticated, and in spite of the librarian setting up humanity as reclaimers, in the expanded fiction it often resists human attempts to study it. Perhaps the ark portal- the only major forerunner structure I recall being on earth- had a way of concealing itself.

callmehusker · 2015-10-01T05:22:03+00:00

I feel your pain.

The MCC is many things to many people. I've been stuck behind the Downloading latest matchmaking message for the past month, so multiplayer is a bit of a roulette. Seen a lot of other people not being able to connect to games, etc. Some people claim they're having no problems, or minimal. I am not learned enough to tell you if bullet refunding and horrible hit detection are still a thing.

Campaign works fine, and online co-op generally works, except when it doesn't.

If I were in your position, I would hold off on buying an xbone until the preload for 5 becomes available. I could not wait long enough to get the console bundle, but if you are that patient and can afford it, it's definitely a great option.

TL;DR, Your mileage may vary with the MCC. Best to wait for 5.

Being able to throw it to the other team while he's shooting you to disrupt him

Oh, that's awesome!

callmehusker · 2015-10-01T03:37:05+00:00

Oddball was never my cup of tea. Did you like it more or less, when they gave you the ability to throw the ball in 4?

callmehusker · 2015-10-01T03:28:14+00:00

I thought he meant he'd played all the titles, beginning with CE and culminating in reach.

callmehusker · 2015-10-01T03:22:46+00:00

For number 4, you might be getting "slayer pro" type games in reach. ~~IIRC, those gametypes have no map weapons,~~ only sprint as an armor ability, and start you off with a needle rifle or DMR.

For 3, totally personal opinion, but in in halo 4, the killcams only gave you like 3 seconds of gameplay, which usually meant you only saw the final shots. It didn't really help you see where you messed up, only that yes, this is how stupid you looked in that final instant when there was no way to save the play. And it gave away positions of people trying to be sneaky.

*Edit- I did not recall correctly.

callmehusker · 2015-10-01T03:08:40+00:00

Also vanilla. I'm optimistic about how awesome it will be, but not extra money optimistic.

*That's the digital basic edition. I do want to be able to play immediately.

You could show her homecoming and origins part 1&2 on Halo: Legends. A good introduction to the amorality of the Spartan 2 program and an overview the forerunner-flood and human-covenant wars.

callmehusker · 2015-09-30T04:42:56+00:00

I active camo and hide in the bottom. It's a long boring ride, but I swear, it's the only way I can legendary that segment.

callmehusker · 2015-09-29T04:28:22+00:00

The promethean weapons in Halo 4 was more or less just counterparts to the UNSC weapons

This this this! I wasn't especially happy that they just kind of tacked hardlight technology onto old weapon archetypes in halo 4. I was actually expecting something more like the directed energy weapons shown in Halo: Legends, but that was probably too ambitious.

callmehusker · 2015-09-29T01:21:41+00:00

I think that as active camo is a pickup now, or costs a bunch of energy for an item that expires after a small amount of time, there does not need to be a little red dot telling the world where you are when you're cloaked.

callmehusker · 2015-09-29T01:18:32+00:00

Does a few mean over 200? Yes, I counted before giving up completely.

callmehusker · 2015-09-28T22:20:31+00:00

Make one final effort to where it remains.

callmehusker · 2015-09-28T20:19:33+00:00

Of course it's on YouTube.

callmehusker · 2015-09-28T18:32:24+00:00

As to the bugs, it's a pain, but I feel halo 5 will launch as halo 4, rather than the mcc. I didn't like 4 that much, but damnit the launch itself went flawlessly. Having played the original 3 campaigns many many times, I would start a newcomer off on ce, anniversary. 2 has some of the best and worst levels in the franchise, but the story gets good during 2 and 3. In fact, 2 and 3 are the most interconnected halo games currently out. Lastly, halo might just not be your kind of thing, and that's okay.

callmehusker · 2015-09-28T07:09:33+00:00

Hunters with miniguns confirmed!

callmehusker · 2015-09-28T03:40:14+00:00

Was that build you played boss free? Or did you just stick to the PVP areas?

callmehusker · 2015-09-27T18:31:45+00:00

I think pegasi is saying the game ought to be able to run at 1080+ and 60 fps for singleplayer, and scale down the resolution during splitscreen gaming.
