Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

now im thinking RvB is gonna do something pg13 with Tucker and holograms, and in my head it is hilarious
Rumble Pit has them pop up about 6% of the time.
He's talking about:
The first mission of the game is titled
Kind of wondering why Noble Six got pulled from Pegasi though. I don't think the Sabre program was the reason, you'd think they'd take more than one S3 if that were the case.
The best and brightest SPARTANs always seem to disappear right before a high risk operation, especially if command has something more important for them to do.
FUCKIN' A, is it September yet?
Gonna go to the midnight launch. Then it's straight home, HDD transfer time, then installing the game... I should be playing it by 1:30 AM I'm guessing. Of course I'll also be turning off notifications and no I don't want to do multiplayer the first night.
Same here. Gotta remind my friends to do the same when we play system link later that week (turning off Achievement notices).
i can see myself doing co-op if people are online and willing but i doubt many will be. also first thing after i finish the game i'm gonna start working on my new map.
Also, the Spartans from Ghosts of Onyx didn't even have full Spartan armor, just a cut-down stealthy scout setup. So is Noble 6 comprised of some secret survivors from Onyx re-trained and equipped with full Spartan armor or are they supposed to be a separately-trained group of Spartan IIIs?
Well...
"Canon" is what is true and valid.
Noble Team (minus Jorge) are S-IIIs, but they wear full Spartan armor and not crappy SPI stealth suits. Their equipment is probably equal to an S-2, but in terms of augmentations they should be weaker.
So then what kind of experience the Reach S-3s have with the Covenant? They've all obviously seen some major combat, but against human rebels or have they been pitched solely against the Covenant?
At any rate, using the S-3s is a good loophole to allow for other Spartans aside from the original gang. Though I suppose not much of a loophole since they're completely unmentioned in Halo 3/ODST and a resource like that wouldn't stay buried when Earth is getting blasted.
What's the time frame between 2 and 3? About a month? That's probably not enough time to pull major ground operations and ship them back home.

I was laggy that game though, so the clip features some teleporting warthog at the end. someone else could make a better version.
The Autumn was destroyed with the first Halo
Dammit, I was looking forward to going to bed before midnight tonight. Now I gotta look it up on the wiki...
Edit: Also on the quality of the upgrades.
Are you going legendary run first? If so count me in.

Microsoft had better realize that the quality of the Halo series is inextricably linked to its popularity. Too bad there's really no way for Microsoft to retain O'Donnell for whatever new Halo dev group they put together. Having another Halo game without his music will be... weird.
if we got 4 i'd consider it but other than that i usually do heroic first time.

I don't know if the SPARTAN program would be allowed, at least publicly, to exist after the war. It's highly immoral, and even if the public could acknowledge how invaluable the SPARTANs were in both the insurrection and the war, something like that would never get real support.
Or maybe it'd get overwhelming support, and people would try to submit their kids to it.
Who knows, really?
Also, I doubt the actual origins of the S-III program were ever released. Just as easy to tell everyone the S-IIIs are a secret group of spec-ops soldiers rather than talk about the nasty bit about kidnapping children for a life of warfare.
Regardless, I hold out hope for seeing hundreds of S-IVs dropping onto the Brute homeworld putting them at the ass-end of an ass-kicking.
To me, the big moral question marks regarding the Spartan process have always been:
1. Augmentation 'washouts' (and by 'washout', of course, I mean 'horrible disfigurement')
2. Holy shit kidnapping children what the fuck, guys.
But really, no one likes the S-III's because Ackerson < Halsey.
IT BEGINS
This is going to be a long month.
