I've been talking about a Ghost Recon-style ODST game since Halo 3 came out, saying that or a game based around the Elites is what I'd want now, and since we all know hardly anyone likes the Elites (:() I'll take what I can get.
[elderly] bah You whippersnappers with you fancy high def resomolutions back in my day we were lucky to have two pixels to rub together, and that was after you dragged those darned punch cards up the hill through the snow 5 miles both ways.[/elderly]

Thanks for mentioning that 2000 MS points thing, Fyre; free Castle Crashers and MegaMan 9 once September rolls around.
I'll be jumping on in a little while.

Quick question, I have all the skulls and want to take my gf's daughter skull hunting. Now I loaded up the first mission on Heroic and turned on campaign scoring (figured I might be able to kill... 4 birds with one stone).
I grab the first skull and..... Nothing. No achievement pops up. I have her pick up skull and still nothing. We restart without scoring on and grab the skull.... nothing.
What am I doing wrong here? Cause I remember doing a 4-way co-op (I had about 3 or 5 back then and my friends had none) and we picked them up along the way and whenever one of us picked one up, everyone would get the achievement/unlock.
Is it the skull at the start or the end of Sierra 117? The first one is a non-achievement Silver skull (Blind), the one at the end of the level is an achievement unlocking Gold skull (Iron?)
Although while we were helping badman get some easy achievements, for some reason getting the Mythic skull to unlock his achievement required him actually picking it up - I picked it up and it didn't unlock for him, although just a few minutes earlier I had picked up a bunch of skulls and it had unlocked.

Fuck that's what I was doing wrong. I thought Blind would bring up an a note or something. Thanks Fyre.

:nods: that's right.
Aren't bubble shield still in or did someone find a way to abuse though?
Well to be fair you could do some crazy jumping shit with deployable cover.
And I doubt there are many areas on many maps where you could jump on a power drainer. Not to mention you can only be an elite. They just showed it off on the pit because it's a relatively small jump that you can rarely get to.
I sometimes wish Invis was a equipment piece and not the power up. This would be good for like, Cold Storage or maybe the Pit, where sometimes people grab the Invis and die just so the other team won't have it. This changes that up a bit.

I don't know why they didn't just bring all the equipment from campaign into multiplayer, except for (obviously) the turretdrones.
a usable camo would have been a nice option.
invincibility (with that badass effect) would have been a lot easier to communicate to players than "hey, this special yellow equipment which has custom effects will give you invincibility or something"
but then again they forgot the obvious option of a setting in Customs to turn off equipment on map/overshields/camo/custom powerups, so there's not even standard custom powerup placements and you have to waste one of your 100 slots if you want to take equipment/etc out for a gametype.
I'm going to politely ask that people not discuss what I'm going to show in this thread just yet, because I want to see people who can't get on yet's reactions to them.
Because Microsoft - perhaps catching wind of the sub-par standard of their competitor's addresses - felt they already "had an embarrassment of riches", and that they "felt we could do this game more justice with a more dedicated event".

Its a very weak excuse. Its standard microsoft policy. Jerk us around and not give us what we want. Just like a clan feature.

That is possibly the dumbest excuse for anything ever

It's more than dumb, it insults our intelligence. Yeah, thank you microsoft for pulling it at the last second in order to give it it's own event. Those reporters sure would've hated to have sat through that.
God this company pisses me off sometimes.
If that was the reason the plug would've been pulled a long time ago, not last night.
Man, for some reason this really, really bothers me. I feel *bad* for bungie, it's a complete kick in the nuts.
Whoever this Mattrick fuck is, I don't like him. I want Peter Moore back.

I've been lolling about in GoW campaign for a while.

wtf?
Previously I could only get up there by jumping off peoples heads which required two coodinated people which was a bit of a hassle
goddamn it they are going to cut power drainers from maps where you can reach normally unreachable places
luckily it won't affect sand trap or valhalla

Bubble Shield, Power Drainer, Regen, and (rare) Trip Mine.
they took out:
Radar Jammer, Flare
they have never used:
Deployable Cover
And I doubt there are many areas on many maps where you could jump on a power drainer. Not to mention you can only be an elite. They just showed it off on the pit because it's a relatively small jump that you can rarely get to.

Deployable cover would work for CTF Heavy.

the more people that show up the more hilarious this will be.

Also apparently we love backstabbing each other in campaign lately.
although that stick Lookfree did to Viscount was fucking awesome. Wish you could clip out or rewind campaign films.
The awesome part being that every time I did the high parts, somebody's mic echoed, just like the original song.
You should have been there
