    I have played only SWAT and Slayer DMRs for the past 3 hours. The sound of a DMR now causes me physical pain. Do people really hate Elite Slayer or something? Because I'm the only one who ever votes for it.
    Also, the spawn system really bugs me in SWAT (and SWAT only). For whatever reason, I'm waaaay more likely to spawn in a location in which I will die almost immediately after spawning, but this is the only gametype that I've noticed spawning too close/in sight of enemies.
    I couldn't take 3 hours of SWAT. I'm having to stop playing after only 2 SWAT games in a row. Of course, the fact that as soon as the vote popped up, several people in the lobby started saying "SWATSWATSWATSWATSWAT" until the vote ended. Fuck those guys.

    Normally I can take 1 game of it, but I was actually doing good and desperately wanted to hit Warrant Officer 3. Seriously, fuck that gametype.

    One of the conditions is that you cannot sell any apps that use it and you can't sell the data you collect. So don't buy any stats programs for the iPhone that cost money..

    Wonder when they'll hit the switch on updating player models on bnet?

    My model already updated once. I'm wearing my outfit from a couple of days ago. It might just take a few days and you probably can't change your clothes every 3 matches and expect it to show up on site.

    Since I'm pretty damn happy with the armour I have at the moment (I'm a less is more kinda person with my Spartan), I'm now considering whether to save up for either Master Chief or Johnson FF voices or Birthday Party (I actually came across a guy with Birthday Party yesterday, made his stomping of us much easier to bear :lol:)

    *sigh* I just thought I liked how sensitive the TK kick was until I was the one being kicked. I TKed ONE guy and was booted. It was during an invasion game. They were piled up on the objective so naturally I chucked a grenade in there while 2 of my teammates bum rushed (sprinting) past me to melee them and one was killed by the nade. D:

    All 3 are good choices. I choose heart attack over B-day party... I'm happy with my decision. I do have Johnson's voice though, he says some great stuff. As far as I can tell, everything is a new recording. He has a new spin on some of his old lines, too.

    you know what would be soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo hilarious?

    Having everyone in the motherfucking rumble pit lobby EXCEPT ME vote for FUCKING INFECTION

    And to add to this AMAZING GAME the map would be the cage, you know, the most perfect map in the whole game where there isn't a middle camping ground with a view of the majority of the map including the zombie spawn where YOU CAN FALL OF THE EDGE IF YOU EVEN ATTEMPT TO USE THE FUCKING ZOMBIES ONLY DEFENSIVE MOVE.

    And then then it would chose me to be the Zombie the first round

    AND THE SECOND
    AND THE THIRD
    AND THE MOTHER FUCKING FORTH

    Luckly the gamemode is balnced so THE FUCKING ZOMBIES CAN GET KILLS! RIGHT???

    AND THEN ALL THE DICKWADS IN THE PARTY WOULD START VERBALLY ABUSING ME FOR GOING -13 AND WHEN I MUTE THEM THEY SENT ME MESSAGES SO I HAVE TO MANUALLY GO THROUGH THE 8 YEAR OLDS MESSAGES AND BLOCK COMMUNICTIONS WITH ALL OF THEM

    BUT LUCKLY THESE THINGS DON'T HAAPPEN IN HALO REACH AND I HAVE FUN AND FAIR FFA PLAYLIST WITH PLEASENT AND NICE PEOPLE!

    RIGHT!

    I could. Tomorrow. Just packed up my 360 and Reach from my housesitting gig. I'll be back home tomorrow.

    Problem is.... It would have to be something mini-golfish... Otherwise you're only going to get maybe 1 or 2 courses out of Co-Ag+Paradiso

    I'll back in 30. Needed a break from BTB. I'd be down for some Team Slayer/Rumble Pit/Team Arena. I also want to see if the tincups still magnetize vehicles. I did find out that fixed physics on map weapons is awesome. The weapons freeze in the air when the wielder dies. It's like little monuments to your sins. You can also stand on them.

    justified rage

    I was quite smug about switching the votes from Slayer DMRs to Infection at the last second, only to realise that I was also on Cage.

    Luckily the game was slightly more bearable when I switched tactics to hiding in the prime camping spots and stabbing folks before they could 'pitch their tent'.

    This sadly can't be done in Powerhouse when every human just puts their fucking backs to the cliff face and enjoys a shooting galllery.

    On a more positive note, where can I sign up for Church of the Armour Lock? Anything that absorbs grenades is cool with me.

    I don't like what they've done to the security helmet. The hater blocker look it had going on has been lessened and looks way too small for the spartan body armor.
