Gaming / Re: Halo has turned into fucking anime

lel, prepare for the 3fail3 IDF.

'but muh narrative'

'but muh planned trilogy'

'but muh bionicle tier looking enemies'
343 IDF here

"muh plot hole ridden campaigns"

"muh characters with the personality and development of a brick"

"muh meme tier characters"

"muh bullshit written as they went OG trilogy"

"halo reach"
And you're assuming I like any of these features, why?
i'm not
So why respond to my post framing it like I did?

because pretty much everyone who praises 343 praises their writing and story

you're expecting story fans to defend a multiplayer segment of the game

I get the fun part, I'm playing this game with him.

you have my condolences

6303
I think he expects everything to be perfect right from the beginning of development

also why do you take the effort to capitalise every word in bungie apart from the I?


yeah, but i don't see why you need to to type it like that

it seems unnecessary

you don't type SQUARE ENIX or B  E  T  H  E  S  D  A

Doctor Who has been trash since David Tennant left

season 5 was passable

but yeah, it's gone downhill

it's not since tennant left, it's since russel t.davies stopped writing it

The amount of nitpicking that goes on is quite funny.

why do you care about bungie so much? you seem to sperg out any time they so much as breathe

to be honest, the amount you care about them seems to contradict how much you supposedly hate them
it's all he's capable of because he has nothing to actually discuss

but posting things that i dislike that other people dislike will make me popular, right?

he was having a right ol' bitch fest about it in the chat, lads

The windshield looks like it's from 2005.
i don't get it

it looks like glass

First off, I don't think you know what glass looks like.



Second off this entire area of the hog is just terribly done.
it looks like tinted glass
i don't see the problem. warthogs have always had slightly tinted glass.

The textures are blurry and rough.

god forbid a screenshot that isn't from the final build of a game isn't perfect!

oh, the humanity! whatever shall we do?

I thought this series looked pretty cool, but this episode already disappoints. I was excited at the beginning for davros but the inclusion of him and skaro is pretty much the only thing I liked in the episode.

also, missy is a terrible character and shot be removed from the show completely

to be honest, anything after series 5 should be removed completely

It's fruitless while there's nothing to unite us. If there a greater threat, then yes. But it's pretty much impossible without a common goal.

That's true. But if that did happen, if we all did unite. Would you still want world peace to come?

Of course. But there's nothing that can unite us in such a manner. So it's pointless.

Oh yeah I did live in Texas for 6 months. The days felt longer for some reason. Also it's a state full of bible thumpers.

That's weird. It's further from the pole so you'd expect the days to feel shorter.
I don't know how to explain it but my entire family kept getting weirded out by the fact that the days were just longer for some reason. Like it would feel like 9 or 10pm, but it's only 7pm. It also feels like everyone there moves slower.

Probably because it's hotter, maybe?

Maybe people move slower because they want to keep their body temperature down.

Not so much the heat, more of the humidity. when I was in Texas, what could have been a nice warm day was oftentimes ruined by the fucking life sucking humidity.

Maybe.

I'm just glad I live where I do. Nice and cool all the time, it's rarely humid in yorkshire.

- Nuclear weapons have played a large role in stopping a major war between nations throughout the past 70 years, and disarming them would be a bad thing.

- Nuclear power is good, and is the best solution until we can be truly reliant on sustainable/ renewable energy sources.

- Cutting budgets for space exploration because "we aren't getting anything done" is a self-fulfilling prophecy. The only way we'll be able to get serious about sending people to other planets is if space programs get the funding they need.

- Particle accelerators don't make black holes. the fact that people still think it is downright retarded.
that's all I can really think of right now.

this last one is something I can't really bulletpoint. Basically, it's something which I read in a biology textbook a couple years back, about predator/ prey relationships. the example was foxes and rabbits. When there's a lot of rabbits, that means there's a lot of food for the foxes, so the fox population grows quickly, but then reduces the rabbit population. the fox population falls because there's not enough food to sustain it, so the rabbit population grows again because of a lack of predators, and the cycle repeats. Basically, I'm of the belief that humans are also involved ina  cycle like this; that resources were abundant so we're going to grow quickly, but now they're getting more and more scarce so the human population is going to shrink drastically to compensate. And repeat.

Tipping waiters it's best to tip between 15-20% (depending on what areas you visit). They only make about $2.13 an hour, so if you're planning to go out to eat you might want to budget in a tip unless someone else offers to cover the tip. However, if the service is terrible you can tip less obviously. Where are you wanting to visit because that greatly influences what kind of personalities you may or may not encounter. I live in the south and everyone is pretty polite, they can't drive, but they're not that bad. It's kind of entertaining to see how weebs and sportsfaggots get along in the same living space.

dont go out to eat if you cant afford to cough up a few bucks to support the people serving you

Resteraunts should pay their employees a decent wage.

« on: September 19, 2015, 11:58:09 AM »
The fight scenes in the prequel films were brilliant - both the lightsaber ones and the massive battles. The Battle of Geonosis and Battle of Coruscant remains one of my favourite scenes from any film to date.

The Transformers films have some pretty cool CGI. I loved the Dinobots in age of extinction, just a shame that a film whose entire marketing revolved around the introduction of dinobots had them in it for about five minutes. Out of nearly three fucking hours.


On the other hand, the scenes from films I like that I always dislike are space scenes (Except Gravity and Interstellar) because no one ever does space right. I love the space fights in star wars, but the lack of scientific accuracy when it comes to space is astounding, though I've just sort of come to accept it with star wars.

I know not everyone is cool with Arby being let go, and personally I really like him as a character.....but in the Halo Universe.....he is responsible for the deaths millions upon millions of human lives......like I still don't know why Oni didn't just kill him there and then, the Covenant was falling apart and human could have slaughtered what was left of the Sangheli.

Thats just me, living in harmony would have worked easier before....well, the genocide.


...because he was the only one advocating to defend humanity? If he wasn't around, the covenant empire would have finished what they started; they control literally billions of star systems. We haven't even seen half a percent of the covenant.

Any of the remnants groups could easily roflstomp humanity, and you're saying that what is the literal shield of humanity should be destroyed? Wow.

How could humans wipe out the Sangheili? There are a few billion compared to hundreds of billions of Sangheili - there is literally no contest.

SO Nightfall isn't replacing ODST huh?

Helljumper is the variant worn by buck. Based off ODST but nightfall bears more resemblance.
