I will probably never see Halo 3 being played on a screen that big ever again.

I saw the thread but I didn't know that was the one in the new Cowboys stadium. I saw the making of that stadium on Discovery or some shit, it's fucking insane.

I'll be up for playing, again, but I wanted to get a bite to eat. Plus the Brit's connection was really... ugh. Melee and grenade tosses were so off.

Eating now, but if I get any invites, I'll come back once I'm done.
 
Sorry I didn't join up right away, juices. Right in the middle of a game 'n' all.

Trasher completely forgot about me though. Jerkface. ;(

I'll try to go with customs again next week; hopefully we get to the good stuff sooner. 7v7 MLG on a tiny map gave me an aneurysm. :(

lol yea that was pretty shitty

really? I'm impressed, you were shitting on people :D
Haha, well since my box is still dead I was playing at my friend's house (hence the no mic, sorry about that) and he apparently has some solid internet. A few of those games were kinda laggy, but they weren't terrible. I miss this game. :(

Btw, what map was it in the crypt where there were ramps on the sides with the grav lift in the middle (awesome explanation I know). It kind of reminded me of Onslaught a bit.

My bad, Sai! Did you send me a message or something? If so I might have accidentally erased it. I was mass deleting like tons of messages that have accumulated while I've been out of commission haha.
 
I think, if it's the one I lastly played, it's Ghaleon's map titled Centrifugal. Unless he renamed it, or if that's the map at all.

I still missed on 4v4. :\

Welcome back, by the way. :P

I think that was Ghaleon's map Centrifigul (I think that's what it's called)

Yeah, that's a map of mine. I pulled it down intending to rework it - more routes up to the base are needed from the ground level - but I never did. The map Elevation (which I like a lot more, but that's me) is actually an evolution of the same design, with the center dropped to the ground. The two-level base, the ramps with the over/under routes on the high side are all borrowed elements from Centrifugal. I was able to add more routes into the base, and made the map asymmetric down the center (high side and bridge side), all changes I meant to add to Centrifugal. Since Elevation is so similar to Centrifugal I never went back and updated it, thinking it redundant.

Why the hell am I still awake, holy shit.
 
Twas good fun, even on the cramped Wizard, but 4am is really pushing it personally, so we'll see.

Very much enjoyed shooting gaf people on the head (hadn't actually played anything in the basement area of Sandbox yet) :D . Not that I did fantastically, but I'll put that down to a humongous difference in the amount of games played.

Halo 1 had no autoaim? :lol I remember playing no shield pistol starts on blood gulch and headshoting people consistently across the map by waiting for the reticle to turn red and aiming just above their heads. Unless I'm just that awesome at CE, your 12 year old message board buddies may be mistaken.

wat_ftw, wat_wat_in_the_butt, and roxelle for lead multiplayer designers! I'm sure they'd make a much more popular game.

Is there maintenance going on for stats and files? My profile won't even load on Bungie.net
Yeah, it's not working for me either. Maybe it's in preparation for the expansion of the Render to video beta?

GUNS THAT WORK FTW!
 
In Squad Battle, I got matched up with a bunch of kids judging players based on their performance in Campaign, getting fussy over folks from the enemy team crowding around our base, and going "How can the Battle Rifle do that?!' over, and over again throughout the match. :lol

Of course, we lost. The fact that they seemed to be so oblivious to the workings of Halo's multiplayer was more funny than upsetting.

I want to start playing Team Slayer again. But I'm afraid to go in alone. :(

What level are you? I've been bouncing around between 40, 41, 42, and 43. I'll be happy to do some games with you.
 
k I think stats are working again. Just in time for a pic from last night. A BTB where only 3 on the other team remained. So Merguson and I started doing some XTREME GOOSIN'.
May be hard to see so click the image for the big version.



Merguson (passenger): Bogey at seven o'clock!
Me (driver): Roger I see him. Beginning evasive maneuvers!
 
LOL, so I didn't realize but I was pretty drunk last night, because I went back and just looked at my games, I don't seem to remember a few of those. Apparently we played some BTB.

Wow, Bungie fix the goddamn hitboxes on Elites. I know that I sound like a broken record, but Jesus Christ you can't shoot Elites in the face. It's a good thing that Bungie cares enough to fix them.

I don't think that's something they can "fix."

Aren't we done complaining about Halo2? I mean, good thing Bungle fixed it in Halo3 :lol :lol :D :D :lol :lol :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Well they're fucking retarded for releasing the game with such a huge bug like that. One game that we played of SWAT was tied 49-49 on Guardian. I jump from top blue to gold and put a PERFECT FUCKING SHOT into the Elite's face. And it doesn't connect and I get killed by his shot which came a second after mine. Seriously, it's bullshit and it completely ruins games.

Go into an offline SWAT game with a second controller with an elite model. If you can tell me with a straight face that it's as broken as you think I'd be quite amazed. There are a few wonky things about it but you guys blow it so much out of proportion.

"Completely ruins games" :lol
