The Flood / Re: Disney, wat r u doin
« on: December 09, 2014, 06:15:30 PM »
Everyone needs to chill the fuck out.  So Palpatine was given a first name.  Big whoop.
Part of the reason what made The Emperor such a good villain was his veil of anonymity. It was bad enough when the prequels came along and gave us an identity, now pretty much everything's a given with him.

I wouldn't really have a problem with it if they had picked something slightly less ridiculous. I mean, a Roman esque name would've been cool, but Sheev? Seriously? That's what they went for?
Good villain? He's one of the tropiest old bag of tropes to ever represent evil on the big screen.
What makes him so good is that he just loves being evil. There's very few villains who are like that.

That's the same bullshit argument people used to try and argue why 343i's direction of Halo is inherently bad.

Keeping something a mystery forever is a load of bullcrap. Shit, the Emperor was probably the only good thing about the prequels.

Gaming / Re: Destiny DLC first mission is three minutes long

I did everything but the raid in two hours, then got to the final boss of the raid in a few more.
Really not much content...

How's the story? And is Crota just a shitty Knight clone?
The story is slightly better than the original game, but still pretty shit relative to other games. They explained things slightly better, at least I know why I'm going to kill Crota, compared to the Vault of Glass where it's just go and kill evil Vex.

The mechanic to killing him is different, he looks pretty great, but it's still just a big knight, although a much cooler one.

mechanics
You take down his shields normally, shoot it with guns, but he is immune to guns once his shield is down. To kill him you need to get a sword for a special knight, and when his shield is down, one person hits him with the sword. Few other relevant mechanics to the fight, but that's how you kill him. It's actually quite difficult as well.
Meh....

What even is the story? Anything new about the Traveler or Darkness?
I wish, that would be interesting.

Spoiler
Crota is building an army on the Moon to take over Earth, 6 guardians went to try and defeat Crota, but all but one died, Eris. Eris hid in tunnels under the Moon until should could find someone strong enough to kill him, you!
Not great to be honest, the Vault of Glass story is more interesting.
So, the story missions are you just slowing him down and then going on the raid to kill him?

BLEH.

I swear, the Traveler might as well not even be in the game...
Yep, there was a mission based on Rasputin, the warmind, which again, would be really interesting, but it's just a "protect him from bad guys" mission, you learn literally nothing else about him.
The hell is he up to?

« on: December 09, 2014, 01:08:46 PM »
MCC. But for whatever reason, I've been doing a lot of Halo 4's Campaign on it. No idea why, guess its emotional tone and connectivity to the lore really drag me to it.

Physical. And it was because of his genes that he was able to undergo the physical augmentations.

Master Chief is a beta virgin
He may have lost his sexual drive when he underwent the gene therapy, but we don't know what happened before then, no?


Spoiler
There may have even been a catholic priest in his hometown before he was abducted
He didn't undergo gene therapy though.

Serious / Calc I Help - Fundamental Theorem of Calculus
« on: December 08, 2014, 08:31:10 PM »
f(x)=∫0x3 t3dt

Integral of 0 to x^3 t^3 dt

What I know tells me to do this:

Let u=x^3
du=3x^2dx

Divide by 3x^2 on both sides

(1/3x^2)du=dx

Going back to f(x), I replace 't' with 'u' and multiply by the derivative of 'u' due to the Chain Rule.

(u^3)1/3x^2

Now I substitute 'u' with x^3 and get:

(x^9)/(3x^2)


———————————————————————-

I submit my homework electronically, and it tells me if the answer is correct or not. Obviously it's telling me that's not the right answer. Looking at Wolfram Alpha, I find (x^12)/4 but that isn't the answer either.

Help?

—————————————————————————-

UPDATE: Well, this thread was useless. Just realized my mistake. Although I guess the question is now, why is it that you don't go all the way with the chain rule this time, because I don't get that.

It's the Halo community. What did you expect?
Quality and plentiful Machinima, animated videos on Newgrounds, trick-teaching/informative videos on Youtube, and a welcoming community that tried to help new players to the community? Oh, right, that's not it anymore.
You're only focusing on the good aspects of that time. It was still a cesspool back then too.
>Didn't play Halo 2 on Xbl back then.
>Had 0 problems with community
>Never had to deal with hackers on PC
It was a simpler time.
Sounds more like bliss from ignorance.
If never running into problems was ignorance, then that's fine by me.
i think it counts as that. Because it's saying everything is hunkey doory in the world if you've only lived in a western nation and didn't watch the news or inform yourself.

The same wonderfull time I had in Reach with Fun BTB that worked how hit was intended and new Custom Games every night (Exept for when people put on nothing but Assasination Tower and Speed Halo)
You're talking more about the mechanics than the community there.
