Your initial post read like you still thought that. If that were the case, I'd have added something like, "I'm glad that my initial guesses happened to be correct." But I didn't say that.
Learn how to read before you try to sound smart, space boy.
I apologise for not being able to read minds or discern intent from poorly-worded posts :^)

Yes. I don't see why we shouldn't be pulling our weight here.
Why would we need to 'pull our weight'?
An ally of the UK has been attacked multiple times, the UK should help it's ally.
Besides, we're already bombing in Iraq. I don't really see why extending into syria is a big difference.
There is a difference the Iraq government gave permission for all coalition members to bomb ISIS in Iraq, this is not the case in Syria.
As far as I know (Which isn't much), the syrian government isn't exactly that powerful right now. Or particularly friendly. I was listening to a bit of the debate on the radio on my way home from college and it seemed to me that they want to also fight the syrian government.

You just said you thought it was akin to a pocket with limited carrying capacity.
Why thank you.
Keyword being "thought".
Past tense.
Do you know what "past tense" is?
Or are you too stupid?

Except that isn't how they work.

It always seemed intuitive to me that black holes are basically just pockets that have a limited "capacity".

I love the new Tank design. Honestly, I like all the UNSC vehicle designs now more than their previous incarnations aside from the pelican - Reach pelican best pelican.
Maybe it's because I'm weirdly reminded of the Halo Wars version of them, particularly the tank.
Honestly, I also really like the new Covenant look, too. The new vehicle designs look awesome, I love the new Wraith, but I kind of eish they used these designs for either the Swords or Covenant rather than just a paint job for each. Say, if the Covenant used the older gear from the prior ganes because they couldn't innovate much while Thel gets the shiny new toys.

Hate it. Between having to see my family (20 people in a tiny room is just an awful experience), buying presents for a bunch of people (I'd prefer I get nothing and not feel obliged) and having shitty christmas songs playing 24/7 whereever I go, it's fucking annoying.

Great Britain is Scotland, England and Wales Ireland is Ireland and Northern Ireland The UK (The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland,to be precise), is England, Scotland, Wales and N. Ireland The British Isles are GB, Ireland, Jersey, Isle of Mann, and all the other smaller islands around the area
It's not that fucking difficult.

The only time I ever go anywhere is college. And people sort of have to get along with you in a situation like that. Everyone else I talk to is either my parents or on the internet.

As you can see, my profile picture is a clear example of darkhorse/10 artwork
Sad thing is that the art in the last few issues was actually pretty nice


Clearly it got a decent budget because the series was ending
I notice that AI has three different coloured "eyes."
We know blue shit for Forerunners was likely Builders.
Orange is military.
Suppose green would be Lifeworkers?
Colors don't represent the castes of Forerunners. They represent states of being/status for Forerunner devices.
IE, we associate green lights with functioning/activated electronics in our society, that doesn't mean green = electronics.
Not to mention the simple answer of the colors chosen are aesthetically pleasing. The blandness and grayness of Forerunner structures is not the status quo of their architecture. It's really only used for installations of a utilitarian nature [like military sites] because there's no reason to have them look appealing. Civilian structures used a larger variety of colors and aesthetic features than just grey/white metal. Most common of which is hardlight decorations.
(The Didact's home is a pretty good example; it was constructed out of bedrock with radioactive fossils interspersed throughout that glowed at night)
Maybe so. But the Forerunners seem pretty proud of their high level AI's. The one portrayed there is interesting if you start to look at it's design.
Look at the three colours on the eyes and take my colour theory into account. Notice how they're ringed and connected to each other. Forerunner society had three big powerhouse classes. The scientists, Lifeworkers, Military, Promethians, and Engineers, Builders.
So, if we take a look at that big interconnected ring, what does it encompass?
The symbol in the middle of the machines faceplate. And if I remember right, that's the symbol of the mantle, no?
See where I'm going here?
It makes it the Google Chrome robot

Hard to tell, really
Marvel has a more established cinematic universe and I've enjoyed most of the films. Whereas I've only got Man of Steel to go off for BvS. That said, BvS has had more trailers. But both do look fantastic.

Like, they pretty much ban you there if you have any kind of right opinion.
I take it everything you post there has to be the wrong opinion? Also it's sad that one of the mods here did damage control and deleted that post of his.
yes
What do you mean?
The post he ended up getting BTFU on ended up being removed. The only post of his that remains in that thread is his damage control one.
looooool

Why did the artwork for the comics become shit? I know it's by different people but for the first comic the artwork is gold but for your avatar it looks like babies first comic drawing.
Marvel did Graphic Novel, Bloodline, Helljumper and Uprising. All were well-recieved in the community.
Dark Horse did Initiation and Escalation. Both of those series have been generally considered pretty bad.
Why did Dark Horse due such a shitty job with them? They did a lot of Star Wars comics which look nothing like the shit that was being drawn for Halo.
I don't know. The more recent issues have been pretty good from an art perspective. Just a shame the story turned shite in the trade-off.

I find it more disturbing that Greedo managed to miss a shot on a still target from like, three feet away
I thought that guy was supposed to be a bounty hunter.

I'm not surprised. I got the displeasure of using a 3D printer for some design work last year.
Those things are awful.

Pre-Fallout 3 Fallout games* A gameboy star wars game. That was terrible. Lego Batman on the DS Oblivion*
*I'd have probabky liked these more if I hadn't played the later games first. Plus, I really don't like the top-down isometric turn based thing Fallout had going on. Same for the original Syndicate. Couldn't get into that either

That's what I meant. Eight-gen concoles are hilariously underpowered.
My guess is because they can't afford selling another console at $500/$600 like they did last gen.
I believe the Xbone was making money back pretty much right off the bat
And the PS4 is selling faster than what the PS2 did this far into it's release
I think game developers for this gen need to try not prioritising graphics so much, because of how cheap and underpowered the consoles are
I think they need to stop pushing for 1080 and 60. Either one or the other, preferably a stable 60fps framerate.

Plus, the motion controls bullshit they tried pulling meant they had to skimp on hardware.

Also... Isn't Halo 5 only 60 fps in a small bubble around you?
Yeah
Enemy animations at distance are 30
Sounds like Dark Souls 2.
It's kinda pathetic that the XB1's first 'proper' exclusive can barely maintain 60fps. The resolution alters when things get hectic to keep a consistent frame rate.
It's not pathetic at all when you realize the hardware was out of date since before it even came out. On both platforms.
The 360 and PS3's potential was far more powerful and greater, and actually ahead on the market (even with PC's) in many cases. Not the fact with Xbone and PS4. I assume due to how much it costs building it, inflation, etc.
Last gen didn't hit its limit until around a decade later. Current gen hit it before it even hit the markets.

I, too, love having a quarter of a screen to try and see what I'm doing while suffering a frame drop when I could always just play over the internet and have the entire screen
there's no reason not to have both
also, fuck 60fps
If it's a choice between a higher frame rate and a splitscreen, I'd always choose removing splitscreen Plus, it means you don't have parties of 4 players doing terrible and causing you to lose the game because none of them can see anything. So another advantage for me.

Constant 60fps is not even close to worth it to remove split-screen. At least they stated they'd rethink it for Halo 6, but still.
Not really If you're someone who never uses splitscreen, the 60fps upgrade is much better
