plasma rifle confirmed


=O

Sweet!

I'd also like to point out that the Plasma Rifle pictured is the Blood-Hand, which was used exclusively by the Brutes. I doubt that means they're adding Brutes to Firefight. More likely, the Blood-Hand is a an upgraded variant of the Plasma Rifle available as a REQ.

Moa speculated that with the announcement with a req pack with the new Chopper MB set (You only get RPs with vehicles appearing in the game apparently), we also might be getting a chopper. I'm dubious.

However, it does explain the presence of a brute category in forge. I mean, why put an entire faction category if all you're gonna have in it is the hammer? May as well just file it under covenant.

Regardless, I hope this means we'll be getting a mauler and a spiker to go with, and possibly a regular plasma rifle. I'm also hoping for a Fist of Rukt hammer that gives the user an overshield but I doubt it'll happen.

I'm still waiting for req weapons and vehicles in forge. Tom French (Forge lead) said he wants to do it, so I'm hoping it happens. I want to be able to use arctic vehicles on glacier.

Going to see it next wednesday for my birthday. I'm looking forward to it, though I'm hoping the batman vs superman part of the film gets more screen time than locke hunting chief in halo 5.

That said, I'm more excited for CA3 than BvS. I've always preferred Marvel's stuff to DC.

Generally think "Would I care if someone else posted this?"

If the answer is you probably couldn't give less of a shit if you saw it on the page and/ or you'd probably find the person posting it cringey, then that's a sign.

Surprised no one's come into this thread yet to tell us how much they hate this show and try to convince us to stop watching it.

It's still early hours in the us

There is a theory going around that Negan could kill multiple people. In the comics, Rick's group had only killed 10 Saviors at this point, but in the show they've already killed about 40, so Negan will need to make up for that. Negan may end up bashing Glenn's head in and saying something like "Lucille is still thirsty" before going for Daryl. Unlikely, but if it does happen that could be TWD's Red Wedding.

I mean, it'll be pretty shocking for the GA if only one of them die, but still.

I don't know. I mean, killing Glenn and Daryl seems like a risky move. Both of them are two of the favourites among the mass audience and I still don't buy them killing Glenn twice in one season, even if the first one was pretty obviously a fake.
I think the fakeout was a poorly executed test to see how the audience reacted to Glenn's death, it could still happen.

Only other thing I can think of is if they're trying to call the bluff of the (Mainstream/ non-comic) audience. Try to make them think he's not actually dead because they did the same thing before, only to turn out he is dead next season.

The Governor and Shane did nothing wrong.

Seriously, what was the point in setting up a moral dichotomy between Rick and Shane if all they were going to do with Rick's character is turn him into The Governor 2.0.

Oh yeah, S2 happened.

I'd argue that it was more foreshadowing what rick and co. would become (And in the case of woodbury, how they'd be seen by outsiders) as much as pointlessness. To the saviours, the Alexandria group are a bunch of people living in a restored town with working electricity, lots of guns and (As far as they know) no reason to attack them when they could co-exist (Remember that the Saviours don't know about Alexandria's deal with hilltop).

to the prison, Woodbury was a bunch of people living in a restored town with electricity and nice things with lots of guns and absolutely no reason to attack the Prison and absolutely no reason why the two couldn't co-exist. In a way, what they're setting up with Morgan and Rick is similar to what happened with Rick and Shane (though more extreme in morgan's case), though the roles are reversed this time. It shows the character development for both parties, I'd argue; Rick has become exactly what he was fighting against. Rick was once the guy who would ask questions before shooting and try to be peaceful, much like how Morgan is now, but now he's shooting first and asking questions later in the interests of his own people like what Shane wanted to do.

I don't see it as pointlessly making Rick exactly what the villains were in the first seasons. I don't know if it's intentional, but what they're doing now has some nice parallels with Rick/ Shane and prison/ woodbury and it shows some character development on Rick's part (Unlike say, Daryl who has been stale for the entire show)

But hey, that's just a theory. A FILM THEORY. THANKS FOR WATCHING.

Spoiler
In seriousness I'm probably overanalyzing that, but I still think it's kind of interesting to see how Season 6 mirrors 2 and 3

My money's on Daryl, with Glenn in second place. Not by much though, I just think it's definitely one of those guys.

Might have been the soldiers found the RPG after the apocalypse and simply took it with them. Like, if some gang or something had obtained one illegally and the army group found it later on rather than being issued one.

Watch them not give any/ very little xp or rp for the warzone firefight because "It's not competitive enough"

Regardless, at least it looks like a warzone variant that isn't tedious as fuck to play. Warzone as it stands is just awful, so they can't exactly make it worse.

I played this game at a friend's last night. Aside from the PS4 controller reeeeeeee, it wasn't as bad as last time I played (I was imperial walker assault/ endor). Thinking about getting it for cheap, as it's only £22 at CEX.

Is it worth twenty quid or would I be better off getting R6Siege? It's only £3 more expensive.

I'd reccommend it. You PS4? We can buddy up

No, I was on a friend's ps4

I'm on Xbox, myself. Never particularly liked the playstation controllers, even if PS2 was best console.

Played some Fallout 4.

I've started a new save where I'm playing a character permanently drugged up on medX and psycho and jet and runs at people with a knife to shank some bitches

Usually I just play your standard guns build so I decided I wanted to mix things up a little for once, it's great fun. When I've upgraded my sneak and melee damage a bit more I intend to jump to V. Hard difficulty but at the beginning it's pretty much impossible to play a melee-based character on that, so I'm on normal for now. If I'm still going by the time it drops, I'm going for a survival playthrough.

So if any of you preview bitches wanna play Wars on the One you will be able to soon.
Hopefully it will be playable, unlike Reach.
Do you ever stop fucking bitching? My god it is so annoying. You are a literal cancer to this forum.
Except that's a legit complaint. Reach is unplayable on BC
Unplayable?

Thought it just had texture and framerate issues.
YouTube


Unplayable
Ouch.

Didn't they release an update to diminish frame-rate drops?
Still awful and there's a noticeable input lag.
That's a shame.

And lets not forget about the textures and lighting to top it all off



I mean seriously what did they they do to the game for it to end up like this?
Okay, I'm like 99% certain it's how the Xbox handles graphical processing, because I get the exact same issue on one cutscene in Halo 4 on the MCC.

Something about the classic Halo engine doesn't jive well on newer tech. Not the first case of this happening either.

Yeah. Halo CE and 2 on the 360 were both full of graphical issues if you played on 360.
