Sunday at Noon. Daily Content on Bnet between now and launch including Matchmaking Playlist reveals (maybe Tyson will write something on them, I gotta ask him tomorrowz), Networking, Saved Films, Guide and Tour of Bungie.net, more Forge, First Ever Halo 3 Humpday on brand new Forged Gametypes with films of Rocket Race, new 2 hour podcast with Joe Staten, Marty O'Donnell and Chris Gossett talking about the new Bnet, the next Blomkamp and finally, a long awaited pre-launch surprise.

I dunno, seems like a decent amount of stuff to help you pass the time.

Badass. Thanks for the notice!
 
A few days before this thread was posted, I was thinking we'd reach 225 pages the weekend before the game launched. I was even being generous with that number. Look at this insanity.

One way or another. We had one dissenting opinion from a regular joe in this thread and it went bananas. Wait til a website or magazine does that.

Eh, I don't really consider that a spoiler. So yes it would be cool to know but I'll find out in less than a week anyway so it's not that important to me. I'm surprised you're still here, Cocop. Most of the serious Halo fans have gone dark...however, the mods here have been doing an excellent job containing spoils.
 
i'll give you all a PRO tip, dont use hammer when your a passenger in the car, kills the driver in 1- 2 hits :lol

Also the sword is strange to use, im not sure what they have done to it, but it doesnt go as far this time, when u "press trigger".

Also the talk on mplayer = same as halo 2, proxy and hold up on d pad to talk to everyone (very pleased its not open mic 2bh)

Playing on a split screen gives you borders, around the sides, this was on a wide screen tv to,
 
Great impressions Astr00.

Shame about the lack of anti-aliasing. I called it during the beta. As for the AI, it seems like it's receiving mixed reviews from all the other impressions I've read. Some have dubbed it amazing, and some just aren't impressed.

That's probably because (impressions only)
at times it is really intuitive and at times it's ridiculously stupid. It's just how much you want to let the bad times bother you.
 
boy newegg reps sure don't want to refund that order huh :lol
poor guys. I feel like such a dirtbag.


previous question:
So if maps are designed with gametypes in mind around them, what's Construct designed for?
 
For those of you who ordered at NEWEGG...

I'm on Step 3 right now. The site says that once step 3 is reached, "you may no longer make changes to your order," but yet it seems that some of you have either cancelled or have thought of canceling your order by phone? I would like to cancel my order if they don't ship it by Friday. Can it be cancelled by phone once it reaches step 3?

Thanks.

Your avatar looks like a mix of Brimley, and Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman off Mythbusters.

Such is the nature of artificial intelligence I guess. Like a roll of the dice you might get lucky and see some amazing shit on your 1st play through... or maybe not.

I laughed. Then I checked Xbox Live, just to make sure. Not the least bit nervous. There I was met with an Xbox Live Message ... after a few minutes of nervous twitching, I clicked it. Microsoft is apparently doing a voluntary retrofitting of the Xbox 360 Wireless Wheel. You do love me, Stinkles!
 
Added the preview of Construct to the OP, which was swept under the rug for....well I don't know what the past few pages were but I'm glad they're over.

And yes, that was "roll the dice". Both of them.
 
flamer thrower = death to all, including user (thats what i have found every time i pick it up)

flame nade = Meh not really that handy, i was really looking forward to it to,

most important note = I MISS MIDSHIP

DLC plz?
 
Astr00 said:
No, I completely agree, and I even knew going into it. It was just that I had promised one of my friends that we would play Legendary together, so he made me play through Normal with some other friends while we waited. Why normal and not Heroic? I'd read that the encounters would be bigger on Heroic, and I didn't want to ruin those before I played on Legendary.

So how true was the "heroic and legendary being larger scale"?
