Halo: Reach

[quote name='reddjoey']Forgive me for going n00b, but I forgot about the seasons and what playlist it applies to. Thanks[/QUOTE]
It applies to Arena if I'm not mistaken.

Also, add me if you want to play. I'm on most nights but my mic situation is wonky. Some days I will have one most days I won't but hopefully I can make up for that by being a good teammate
 
The weekly challenge achievement is called "One down, 51 to go". I hope thats a clue, and they give us a reward, like blue helmet flames once you get 52 weekly challenges done. That would be sweet.
 
[quote name='Dr.Zoidberg']Man how I hate the one shot rifle. Everything is so futuristic but we get a gun with one shot, c'mon.....lol[/QUOTE]

what are you talking about?
 
[quote name='The 7th Number']Maybe he means the DMR? Personally i love that gun, i hate the assault rifle. It feels so weak to me.[/QUOTE]

its a semi-auto, the ar is alright in certain situations and game types.

LOVE the DMR. Much better than the Battle Rifle.

That is not only a one shot rifle, that is a one shot kill rifle. Aim for a headshot and you have an instant kill.
 
Actually had a lot of fun playing Rumble Pit for a couple hours tonight. Was mainly doing it for the relatively quick game (especially the invasion games) to chip away at the weekly challenge.

But ended up doing better than usual and having a good time. Part of it was noticing the option to match up to similarly skilled players I"m sure. As I hadn't noticed that before.

I didn't do great by any means (never won a match) but I was usually in the top 4 at least, and had my best every slayer game in my last match with 23 kills. Also knocked out the 2 daily challenges for MP kills and assists. Got 11 matches in toward the weekly challenge.
 
[quote name='Kaelestis']I know there are some really powerful gravity lifts, like the ones in Spire but they're under some weird category I think. The teleporter issue you had seems weird since in Halo 3 you could set up the teleporters to different channels. No idea though.[/QUOTE]

Found it! I know I'm responding to an older post but I just wanted to say I was glad you mentioned it otherwise I might not have searched further, so thank you. The more powerful one is under vehicle cannon (missed that one somehow). Edited my map for what I had originally imagined. Pretty much edited, deleted and resubmitted my stuff to File Share because I'd made a bunch of little mistakes all over the place.

Was trying to figure out how to make a Golf game variant, but no matter what gametype I can't figure out how to do so where it actually scores the game.
 
[quote name='fatmanforlife99']Whats the most kills you guys have got in game with a tank? Just went 50/3 in the tank. Damn thing is too powerful.[/QUOTE]
I think I've only gotten up to a 14-15 kill streak with it. Honestly, I don't know how to use the tank in an interesting way. I actually get bored because I just pull the trigger any time my reticule turns red and nobody can even get near me. Usually end up giving it to someone else so I can go shoot people :lol:
 
Firefight being limited to 4 players sucks. I can't believe they didn't up it a few more people. I would love a 8 player last stand vs a ton of elites, etc.

I got a 15 kill streak before people starting going around the entire map and blew me up with a grenade. I still ended up going like 32-6 or something like that...the tank is probably a bit too strong unless you can just jetpack across the map and hit the blind spot. No use trying to rush the tank, you can't win that battle
 
Got a killtacular while playing a game of safe havens. I like that much better than regular infection. Now to get through a legenday level without a death. That's the last helmet I need.

What happened to the competetive firefight where actual people controlled some of the elites to try to kill the Spartans? Is that in there?

sadly, "One down, 51 to go" sounds like it just means the total number of weeks in a calendar year. Blue helmet flames will probably be one of those games where you actually beat the bungie team or some rare arena award.

Saw some guy with Captain 1st rank, holy crap...apparently you earn a ton of cR winning Arena matches since the guy hasn't even played the campaign much but he's already killed 1,700+ ppl in competitive matches.
 
Team slayer 4v4 - DMR (swat) on Hemorrhage is the lamest MP match/map combo. Worse than Rally imo. Once the other team (or yours) gets setup it's gg.
 
[quote name='sendme']Wonder what you have to do to get that Haunted one. That is the one I want.
[/QUOTE]

You need to own every other helmet first (besides Waypoint and Recon DLC).

Oh yeah, and you need to be the rank of Reclaimer. Good luck with that.
 
[quote name='sendme']Wonder what you have to do to get that Haunted one. That is the one I want.

Also what gets you the Inconceivable medal?[/QUOTE]

Max rank plus you have to purchase all other helmets.
 
Just got to Captain level, 210,000 credits. Unlocked the gold visor, yet cant buy it because i need to be a higher rank. I guess it lets you know there is something to go after. Otherwise its kind of pointless to unlock things you cant buy because you arent a high enough rank.

Oh and if anyone cares, i made a video of this grunt i shot in gruntpocalypse. When i shot him he went flying straight up in the air really really high and came back down. LOL

Well the getting the helmets wont take much other than lots of game time unless you don't unlock all of them by ranking up.

As for Reclaimer how far up is that?

Captain actually isn't very high anymore, there are a lot of people way above captain now.

I haven't had the chance to play Firefight yet, so I'm not certain on this, but someone else in this thread had mentioned that you can just hit the right bumper button to switch sides when in the Firefight lobby. I assume that works for a regular Firefight game, not some kind of special Spartans vs. Elites variant?
 
[quote name='iKilledChewbacca']fuck that Bungie Pro shit, its not like Bungie actually needs the extra money.[/QUOTE]

You dont think they decided to charge for it do you?
 
[quote name='yankeessuck']You dont think they decided to charge for it do you?[/QUOTE]

no its not that , someone posted a link to a video on Bungie.net and it said I couldnt watch it because I wasnt a Bungie Pro user.
 
[quote name='A Happy Panda']Legendary Edition is STILL available at Amazon.com.

fuck off Bungie.[/QUOTE]

I can't wait to see your reaction when it's still there in December... ;)
 
[quote name='iKilledChewbacca']no its not that , someone posted a link to a video on Bungie.net and it said I couldnt watch it because I wasnt a Bungie Pro user.[/QUOTE]

If it was rendered you would be able to. Them not being Bungie Pro would be the issue.

It's just insult to injury. They shit out this piece of poop they consider "competitive multiplayer" and then their lies about the LE being actually limited come true. Not really surprised since they know thousands of retards like me will buy it for the $150 price tag.

isnt this the same story as with h3? im sure its limited just to a very high print run.

suddenly I don't feel the need to be that high ranked anymore, anyone who playes for as many hours as lions normally sleep in any given day (18 hours) can be whatever rank they earn. holy crap, the dood doesn't seem to do anything but play and sleep for 5 hours a night. There's probably a way to optimize the amount of cR you can get...and it ain't from campaign that's for sure.

as for unlocking armor that you can buy yet due to lack of requirements, it's just a way for something to look forward to.

looks like its firefight.
 
[quote name='A Happy Panda']So limited in fact, it's still available 3 years later:

Seriously though, Bungie and MS fucked over their hardcore Halo fans again.[/QUOTE]

I think the only ones fucked over are the retailers that have to deeply discount this crap years later just because Bungie/MS overestimated the demand for a higher cost collectors edition. These things are always on clearance later on, is hardcore Halo fans thought it was a $150 value enough to purchase it I think they knew what they were getting into.
 
[quote name='whiptcracker']I think the only ones fucked over are the retailers that have to deeply discount this crap years later just because Bungie/MS overestimated the demand for a higher cost collectors edition.[/QUOTE]

And they're really fucked over by the Reach LE, because that thing is freakin' massive. It'll be impossible for retailers to stock something that big long term.
 
I need more people to play Invasion with. I get frustrated every time I play with random people because they don't seem to give a shit about the actual point of the game. If you like to play Invasion let me know, or just add me as a friend.
