Blowing people off the side of Standoof or Rat's Nest is a perfectly legitimate tactic in Rocket Race in any case. I wonder which of those people he claims to be - there's a bunch of Bees in that game. Would be delicious if he claimed to be one of us and then that person posted in the thread.
EDIT: Standoof.
EDIT 2: And for what it's worth, I checked IMaelstrom's gamertag, the guy on Angel's team he claims was a friend that quit out, and none of the people on his friends list were in that Rocket Race game.
I fucking remeber that game! We spent most of the time trying to blast wifey and hubby away from the goal so t4ct and his teammate could win, as I remeber it wank biscuit there was trying to kill ME! cos we dicked around that match,but.... meh, and yeah I'm gonna try and get on some time this week.
Heh, I'm helping Cocopjojo from Waypoint get achievements right now.
I got a somewhat answer out of him regarding H2V and Waypoint recognition not being there: "there are reasons"
I find it odd he's interested in getting the achievments, maybe theyre planning to add them? I want to get Halo 2 Vista just to play some Halo 2 online, do the people here have it?
P.S. I loll'ed at that Bnet thread a few days ago when I saw it, now its just turned into typical internet bitching. If people could be mature on the internet a real debate could happen.
Or maybe he just wants the achievements, is my guess.
Yeah, thats what im thinking but its so much more interesting to consider that he might know something we dont, and that he has been suddently motivated to get the achievments. :P
Out of interest, how is Halo 2 PC Legendary? Im guessing we have the unfair advantage of having a mouse and keyboard making it pretty easy? I assume they tuned the difficulty to account for that?
EDIT: Ah just saw your post Fyrewulff, guess he just felt like completing the list then, without a ulterior motive.
KBAM doesn't make it easier. Then again, I'm actually better at H2V with a 360 controller than I am with kbam. For some reason the kbam just falls apart in close quarters with Halo 2.
It does feel like all the difficulties are slightly harder, but this may due to the game having more clock cycles to make AI decisions.
* = unsure if that weekend is what I thought it was, don't have sources.
I'm personally trawling through my old games. If you have a link or a game from one of the blank or "unsure" weekends and could link it, that'd be great for figuring out what it was.

Ah, thats almost another reason not to buy it lol, I was looking forward to some multiplayer with keyboard and mouse, would suck if im at a disadvantage because of that.
P.S. I responded to your thread on HBO, only had the 1 game recorded from the dates you need, which sucks because I usually try and play at least 1 game for each new playlist, also, I miss it when it was on Avalanche.
I haven't played H2 Vista, but in Halo:CE PC I felt like close quarters was clunky. I had faster aim with the other weapons... and spamming the normal shot with the plasma pistol was awesome (machine gun speeds). I just couldn't really do any of the close quarter jump/spin/melee stuff. You wouldn't be at a disadvantage because everyone else is using KB/M too.

It allows Controller input aswell right? Normally the controller is at a disadvantage against Mouse and Keyboard though? Unless H2 Vista is just weird which I could easily believe. Halo 1 PC was a mess, I was actually playing it earlier just out of nostalgia and they really messed up the netcode. I guess you have to lead your melees (o_O) because they NEVER worked for me, ever!
Good firefighting there guys. It felt easy, but at one point we were down to zero lives. At the end, Fyre send me a message and my xbox hard froze trying to open it.
I had an awesome game of Grifball earlier. I didn't score with the bomb but I did get 72 kills and 27 deaths, I fucking crushed those guys. Grifball is the one gametype I do really, really, really well at. I even got another killpocalypse medal!
I had two headsets when I bought my 360, not sure why.. the console came with one, not sure where the second came from. But at any rate they slowly disintegrated in the years since, and when the last one started crackling last fall I finally broke down and got the wireless headset.
Long story short: wireless headset is awesome and I should have bought it years ago.
Had a frustrating game on Mythic, bunch of mouthy bastard vs two of us since one guy dropped immediately and the other was idle. It was one flag on that map which grants you "Ghost Patrol".
They were good, very good, managed to form in on us pretty quickly and could headshot if you even so much as showed your face. Often you'd be firing at one sniper and the other would get you.
I think they were going for their perfection medals, they kept telling us to give up and got really pissed when we actually managed to get out of the spawn area and kill a few of them.

Argh, still another week before I can finally get back onto Live. Damnable cable company, driving me crazy. I'm actually reading books, people! Books! I don't even know who I am anymore.

Either? and/or? I think we will only try for one of these tonight.
I'm getting my warmup on right now.
I'd rather try for deja vu, not sure if i can stay long enough for endure. I'll be there in 10-15.
The last one was supposed to be me looking at my own dead body.. I think the idle animation caught me off guard though

I imagine if Halo 2 wasn't recognized when it went up, it was never going to be recognized.
Now all I have left is Legend and Silent But Deadly to get..

Unfortunately, Bungie doesn't seem to have ever posted much about the 7 on 7th, and I think that deserves to be recorded as well.

STRONGER. FASTER. BETTER.
That looks exactly like mine.
Ew, you have your headset mic on totally the wrong side.
