In REQ packs, you can enrich your Halo 5: Guardians™ experience™
but you got your armour from the halo 5™ guardians™ preorder pack!

Yep. I don't go on the HaloStory sub as much as I used to because anti-343 opinions aren't allowed.
The FalloutLore sub is pretty cool though. Nice to be able to talk about lore without arguments about which game was better.
Would a anti-343 opinion be an auto ban on Halo archive?
I fucking kid you not they have a rule that you can be banned there if you post too many negative posts. The HaloStory subreddit doesn't actually have a rule against anti-343 posts but you get at least five downvotes on any post criticising the almighty forerunner saga

I don't buy req bundles, I buy each pack separately so that I can make sure I'm paying three-hundred-and-forty-three industries for each and every req pack instead of getting them for free.

Sorry for bumping, but this is the only ED discussion I've seen on here. What do you recommend doing around 10mil? I've mined, traded regular commodities, and now I'm running rares and doing missions that seem fun (nearby smuggling, mostly). I've never tried bounty hunting, but it doesn't seem very profitable. Currently in trading-spec'd Cobra.
You can upgrade to the Type-6 for trading and get something in the tier of 1mil per hour. You can also try upgrading to a Vulture and try bounty hunting. 10million is a good place to start for a lot of career choices ingame.
Also I just logged on and saw the updated thread. RIP
I think I'm using the Viper MKIV, 2x minigun, 2x beam laser, point defence with the best shielding and armour I could get. I'm getting the upper hand against anyone up to competant, or dangerous is they're alone. I tried joining the federal invasion of a system the other day though (Okinura I think?) and I got fucking destroyed by the system resistance. I might have to wait for the vulture before going into an actual battle.
The Viper isn't great at supporting Beam Lasers. Not only does it have very little reserve power but the Class 3 capacitor can't handle them well either. I'd opt for Pulse tbh. Also, Point Defence probably isn't the best choice overall but I can see the appeal on a small ship as missiles can do quite a bit of damage towards them.
Definitely wait until you get Vulture money before trying to take part in a Conflict Zone.
Well I found that I was getting hit by missile a lot, so I opted for PD.
I remember the beam lasers from the tutorials (One mission had 4 of them) and they were a blast to use. They've been serving me pretty well, especially if I alternate between lasers and miniguns.
The Supply Strike mission features a Vulture which uses a Beam Laser. The difference is that the Vulture utilizes Class 3 hardpoints whereas the Viper only goes up to Class 2. If it works for you then dank but generally speaking I never ran Beams on the small combat ships.
The term Glass Cannon comes to mind with my Viper. I can output a lot of damage in a short time, but I can't take many hits despite the upgraded shields and such.

There's this one system that is pretty popular because it consistently gives high-value missions. Can't remember the name but it should be easy to find on google. apparently there's a lot of people going there bevause of this so it's known as the go to spot for missions.
I think it's called Robino or something along those lines
Please for the love of god don't do Robigo runs. They're profitable in the long run but they're some of the most consistently frustrating and inconsistent money-making missions in the entire game. I'd opt for proper trading or bounty hunting any day.
Last I heard it was under lockdown because of strange atifacts, forcing the station into a quarantine. Is it still like that or is it back open for trade?

I was wondering, what was Bungie's and 343's reason why we can't control the throw of a grenade? Control as in we're able to hold onto it till it explodes and we're able to control how far we throw it instead of the Hail Mary pass we do.
Balancing. That and Halo still takes a lot of cues from older shooters.
If you're looking for a lore reason it's because the Frag Grenades are set to prime on impact.
Why the fuck can't I punch my grenade and allah their asses to the next match then.
BALANCING
Considering the fact that in warzone 90% of the inside of a base turns into a nade rave, or any engagement involving more than two people, your argument is invalid.
u srs bruh
About as serious as I can get sitting underneath the pile of nades I see tossed in warzone on a daily basis.
And cooking grenades will make that better?
Yes.
I play a lot of matches where all there is to do is drive a scout hog because I can't carry 11 other people on my shit team while fighting 12 on their team.
I would have more fun allah ackbarring myself in casual "no fucks given" mode.
I got the corp scout hog last night so I'm looking forward to being able to die by rocket while leaving the vehicle intact.

More space travel and shit
Keeping the NHS (They're slowly privatising the NHS here)
More general funding for science and technology
I can't think of anything else because I either don't care or know enough to have any kind of opinion on the subject.

You should. At least to the point where you watch the latest episode because besides a certain side plot with a boring character it is nonstop awesome. Fuck that whole action sequence was great.

Yeah. Seasons 5 and 6 have been amazing so far. Much better than lolseason2 and at least as good as 3/4, if not better. 4 was pretty good, too.
They're bringing in All Out War (If you know the comics) and it's pretty fucking good.

It's good as in, going as intended. Then again, I don't really meet girls (I'm on a games dev course and before that I was doing Computing, Chemistry and Physics - not many (read:0) do that shit) so...

FUCK I DIDNT WANT THE WHOLE STUDIO TO SHUT DOWN
even though they just made the best selling console RTS of all time.
Does making the best console RTS have much weight behind it? I can see with the PC since they are far more popular but when it comes to consoles hardly anybody makes them. To me making the best RTS game for a console doesn't seem to be that big of an achievement when there's hardly any RTS games for consoles. Also if Halo Wars was a PC game would it do well compared to what's out there for that system?
They were shut down even before HW launched, so its sales figures mean jack all to their closure.

Microsoft was pushing the shit out of Fable: Legends the past few years,
Were they? I've literally heard nothing about it since E3 2013 (Or 2014?)
It's been at E3 every year since they announced it, and any time that Microsoft talked about Windows 10's gaming capabilities, they brought the game up as their example.
Did they? I guess I'm just ignorant, then. Granted, most of E3 '15 and 14 for me was Halo 5 and MCC hype.

I got all the Halo 3, Reach, 2, 4 and Wars' Limited Editions for about £5 each because one of my friends works in a pre-owned games store near me so I get to use his employee discount.

I've not heard anything good about Legends so I can't say I'm too disappointed - Lionhead seems to have generally gone on a downward spiral anyway. It's not surprising.

What was that tribe that surrounded Danerys? I don't read the books so I have no idea.
It was one of the Dothraki hordes. They mention them several times by name in the show.

I would have just saved the money and not got either.
I do not care what you would have done. I never asked if I should save my money. I asked which I should get. Don't act like anyone on here cares about your shitty autistic opinion.
I seemed to have riled you up there.
Yes I am so mad man. Totally not just making fun of how autistic you are.
You do seem it, yes. Maybe you should calm down, try some breathing exercises or some shit.

Well you can pretty easily see John kick Locke's ass when he gets serious. Before his visor gets smashed, he's just sort of pretending/ not taking the fight seriously; it's only after Locke manages to damage his armour that he puts all his effort in and he wins pretty easily then.

Are reviews necessarily big enough to have a whole front page slide for it?
Maybe if it's like, a brand new game, or something.
I'd say that relevant ones (IE like when Fallout 4 and H5 came out there were reviews of those) could be.

If you had just explained your intentions from the beginning, there wouldn't have been so many people complaining about it.
Sure there would have. I have no doubt there are some folks here who still don't realize the "banner" changes when you click those 4 tiles beneath it, and this argument is nothing new.
I'll admit that the fader design is subpar. It's an old javascript swapper I built several years ago that needs to be updated, but the fader/slider itself is not a poor idea. We just need more "stuff" to happen.
Then make more stuff happen, or remove the function. As of now it's pointless and your justification for it is null as stuff does in fact not happen.
Anarchy weekend and mod/monitor applications don't count? I would be more than willing to add one to rotation if there's a tournament or event going on in #gaming; all anyone has to do is send me the banner and the link.
I can sort of respect you sticking to your guns even when you're wrong, but removing that slider would unbalance the front page. A logo would be redundant. Adding a smaller banner makes it feel unlike a homepage and more like a sub page.
Most sites use a slider or featured spot on their home page. Basically everyone knows this. Removing it is not a good idea and it will never happen.
Opinions can be wrong now?
Anarchy sure does count, but I don't really see the point in still having it up and clickable weeks after the fact, when the event itself only lasts for a weekend.
A slider is a great idea, I'm not protesting that. What I'm saying is that it's redundant if there's nothing relevant to show.
As of now it's kind of a meaningless function - and there's two ways to solve that problem. Either remove the function which really has no purpose - or make it relevant, by creating events.
You're the admin and community manager, if you don't create these events, then who will?
...creating events? What? If there is a tournament or contest or whatever, PM me and let me know and I'll add it. I won't make up bogus events just to keep the rotation fresh.
If you want, I'd be happy to do banners for when people do reviews if that kind of stuff would be added to the slider.
