This is unwatchable for me. Sound is perfect but the video comes at a rate of one frame per seven or eight seconds.

I wish I knew what was up with my connection. All my speed tests say it is fine, downloading anything is fine, browsing anything is fine, but certain streams/chats just do not work at all, and XBL is a mess. I went into a game now and redbarred, but then heard people (again sound/voice is unaffected, for some reason) saying I was the only one with green bars? What the fuck?

It's possible it made me host (I have a good upload, around ~4-5 Mbit at times) and somehow just didn't work for me. If so, I wonder if there's anyway to destroy my host record so I never inflict this on others again.

instinct vs fb in lb finals

then str8 vs fb in finals

would be amazing

You watching it on the web?

Try WMP or VLC media player. VLC seems to work best for everyone.

Faruq is roughly 4000000000x better than Sundance.

 

[godhandiscen]

This is the final huh?

 

[Revengeance]

So FB faces the winner of Instinct vs Str8, yes?

And it looks like Championship Sunday is beginning, woohoo for Chris Puckett!!

FB would have to play Classic, then the loser of Instinct/Str8, then the winner of WB finals

[Kibbles]

LB Finals
---------------
Classic vs Final Boss

WB Finals
----------------
Str8 Rippin vs Instinct


Winners of each vs each other in the Championship.

My thoughts: Final Boss vs Instinct

What happened to that clown Sundance ?

I think he's sick.

I'm hoping for a Classic vs Instinct Championship, or Str8 vs Instinct.

 

[Kibbles]

Wow, smart move by Konami to sponsor MLG... get all these MGS4/PS3 ads in this huge Halo 3 broadcast. >.>

Yes but I think Str8 and Instinct haven't lost yet so when one of them loses they still have a chance to climb the rest of the losers. Maybe I'm wrong, I suck at understanding brackets.

I was thinking the same....

 

[Dirtbag]

That's some logo instinct's got going there. Yikes.

Yep. Winner of FB/Classic plays the loser of Str8/Instinct. Winner of that match plays the winner of the Str8/Instinct match.... I think

Yeah I suck at understanding it too :S

 

[kylej]

Roy is hilarious.

 

[Domino Theory]

God, Faruq is so dumb. :lol

He'll talk so much pre-match and have all these good things to say, then when the games start, he has no idea what's going on or anything about the game so he just stays quiet and when Puckett talks to him, he's like "well they're doing this, so yeah". :lol

It's like watching Manning VS. Brady!

 

[sixthsubset]

why is bungie down? was there an update yesterday?

 

[Trasher]

So Walshy left FB?

 

[Smokey]

What map are they playing on?

 

[kylej]

What map are they playing on?

Onslaught. A CTF map made in Foundry that MLG uses. The spawns are almost as bad as the spawns in Bungie's maps.


oh my sweet christ Soviet is unbelievably clutch

 

[sixthsubset]

So Walshy left FB?

no he got dropped

 

[Trasher]

no he got dropped

Who replaced him?

 

[Revengeance]

:lol HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT :lol

I was also wondering about bnet.

 

[backflip10019]

Who replaced him?

Neighbor. Where have you been?

 

[godhandiscen]

"Oh my Guardians"

:lol :lol first time I hear it.

Oh ok. Just started watching this, not too familiar with MLG.

You're so above it all!

Do you ever have to stop and pinch yourself to make sure you're not dreaming?

 

[Domino Theory]

Neighbor. Where have you been?

Are you a dick?

 

[sixthsubset]

Who replaced him?

neighbor, from str8 rippin

there was alot of drama about it because neighbor and elamite were good friends and said they were going to stay together on str8 no matter what, and fb tried to lure elamite to fb and he said no, then they went for neighbor and first he declined, then accepted, then declined again. fb went around for awhile trying to get snipedown, then mackeo when that failed. then finally neighbor went to fb for good.

neighbor is like the brett favre of halo, so indecisive

 

[kylej]

Onslaught is really, really fast-paced. It's very overwhelming.

[Trasher]

Neighbor. Where have you been?

I don't really follow it all that much.

 

[Kibbles]

So Walshy left FB?

He was dropped for ''personal reasons''. Watch this, they talk to Walshy, OGRE 1, OGRE 2, and Strongside about the drop - http://sports.espn.go.com/broadband/video/videopage?videoId=3547432


lol, T2 had to take time to ''collect himself'' ;p (or go to the bathroom, but I prefer the other)

 

[Smokey]

What sensitivity do these guys use?

Wow, so much fucking drama, this is a legitimate sport now.

 

[kylej]

What sensitivity do these guys use?

Varies from 3-5. Most of them play on either default or bumper jumper, sensitivity 4 and probably 50% or so play without vibration.

TS games are going to destroy Instinct.

 

[backflip10019]

Are you a dick?

Uhhh, I was just saying that because there was so much controversy in the Halo world that I would think that almost everyone would've heard about it. But yes, EggsLent comeback.

 

[Kibbles]

Wow, that was the only game Instinct lost the entire tournament.

 

[Tashi]

Onslaught is a great map. The spawns are where they are to compliment the map control. When you have map control, you spawn kill. It's a great competitive map.

 

[xxjuicesxx]

Yes Onslaught is great. Symmetric arena maps in general are great and they work in H3.

 

[Tashi]

Amplified on the other hand...broken

 

[xxjuicesxx]

Yup has to do with the fact Amplified is Slayer and Onslaught is CTF.

Red/Blue team will always spawn on their respective sides because its objective and they set the spawns to symmetric and repsective teams only.

great point, but i also think that the map itself doesn't flow as well onslaught. Its more closed and is very cluttered. I feel drunk when running around in that map.

Yea not a huge fan of it. We had to play it as our first game in the podtacular tournament. We pulled the win but I just sat a little back and played support. Map makes my Xbox freeze a bit. I wish my 360 was like a 360+ sometimes when I lose frames in H3.

 

[sixthsubset]

amp will be taken out in v6 anyways

expect lockdown or triumph
