The S4s are the truest fulfilment of Halsey's vision that the Spartans are humanity's next military step, the fact they can be deployed in large numbers and with minimal ethics issues makes them far more useful than the S2s and S3s, but it'salso worth noting they are clearly in a tier below the S2s/3s but above all else-so I think that perhaps improvements on the S2 program could lead to another type of S4s, spartans fit to lead armies/squads of S4s into battle but without the major issues the S2 program and S4 program had/has

Order of operations, from B to S it tells you which parts you do in order

No for division and multiplication you do them left to right, same with addition and subtraction.

Yes, everyone knows that, the GCSE specification lists the correct operational order as BIDMAS, you're expected to know it

The government isn't manipulating mass media.

It's just that Americans - as media consumers - are more susceptible to stories like that.

From an outside perspective, surely you can see that they do manipulate the media, hell-even here it's almost certain that our government uses Channel 4 to an extent

Everything has just gone for me, the party is gone and my Xbox is giving me an error code, maybe next time.

However, what little we did manage was fun

Bungie is dead. 343 are doing well, if you watch any of the documentaries with 343 it seems like the studio is now at the stage where you could easily begin to draw comparisons to the Bungie of yesteryear, I think that they will naturally continue to make mistakes but their hearts are in the right place-I have 100% faith that 343 will make something special, even if that may not come for a few years yet. Remember Bungie were around 10 years when they made H2 (7 for CE). 343 are less than 5

Bungie was founded in 1991.

Fuck, i put 10 for H2 instead of CE, and then was lazy and just took away 3. Total screwup

Also 343i was founded in 2007

Then what were they doing for 3 years before Reach?

Weren't they the ones releasing Halo animes?

Oh I do remember that, but as a games studio i'm pretty sure they've only been active since 2010

Except no-one cares about PC

There are more Steam members than XBL members.

But how many are active I wonder?

I have Steam, I know a fair few that do, but i'd say less than 50% use it regularly

Wow, that's actually very impressive

Halo 5 is the first fps (excluding open-worlders) that i've seen that genuinely looks "next-gen", or at least interesting.

"next gen"
There's nothing "next gen" about this gen.

Next-gen is just used to describe the concept of something supposedly a step foward, which both consoles are, just look at Shadow of Mordor for proof

Except nothing we've seen of Halo 5 looks "next gen". And lights and lens flares aren't "next gen".

Shadow of Mordor is a terrible example. It's a cross-gen title.

I was referring to the well-known gulf in quality between X1/PS4 and the last gen versions. Hence why I used SoM as an example because it demonstrates the difference in generations. Dumbass

The in-game announcer is alright, the movie announcer voice is dumb-but it's very clearly tongue-in-cheek, they are taking the piss.

You guys seriously think that 343 are THAT stupid? Just a bit of sarcasm and innuendo in that one
