I like how they added Brutes in. Even if there weren't any in the Fleet of Particular Justice.


But whatever. Still looks sexy af

Only thing that bothers me is the BR55. In the other thread I posted Locke is using the H4 BR. Argh, I just like it when things are consistent. I'd much rather have the classic black BR skin.

Blame sharing assets.

Literally no point to making an entirely new model for a scene that is <one second long.

Looks like Blur's work.


I really hope Blur is on a permanent to make cutscenes for every Halo game in the future.

Gaming / Re: Fallout 3 Or New Vegas?
« on: March 16, 2015, 06:54:23 AM »
Fallout New Vegas has the objectively better story, dialogue and voice acting, as well as iron sights and hardcore.

Yet I feel myself more compelled towards FO3, it gives off more of an exploration feel- I don't bother with FO3's story aside to get Enclave power armour by going to V112 as soon as I exit 101. But 3 feels much less linear in it's exploration and more nuclear war-y with radiation and the DC downtown ruins and stuff.

But I also like Metro 2033 so maybe I'm just a bit of a weirdo. But if we got a map like Fallout 3 + a story from Obsidian and gameplay mechanics from Metro (Gas Mask, scarce ammo etc) then it would be le master game.

Got 3, played the first couple of missions and got bored, hid it at the bottom of my games pile for two years and sold it last week for 50p.

But everything in gears looks like the developers were employed by 12 year olds.

Septagon / Re: can custom titles be made more easily achievable?
« on: March 16, 2015, 06:49:39 AM »
Also, the customs stuff is kinda right. I mean, ever since I hit 3,000 posts, my activity here has dropped massively in favour of HaloArchive and /r/halostory.
You ever thought it may have to do with you getting bored of this site? Posting over that many times to the same people would get boring. Also by looking at the sites you listed it tells me you like talking about Halo which is hardly done on this site. So that there would make you more bored of this site.

Probably. I got bored of most people here somewhere around 2,000. I just decided to get my custom thingy then never really came back too much.

Of course, it can go the other way; half of Halo 4's armour is locked behind commendations and I got bored of playing and thus will never 100% that aspect of the game.

I would be fine if the requirements were directly listed. It's hard to work towards something if you don't know how to get it. Like, there's a reason I always google the secret achievements on Xbox games.

Also, the customs stuff is kinda right. I mean, ever since I hit 3,000 posts, my activity here has dropped massively in favour of HaloArchive and /r/halostory.

I thought 343 said they were giving ODST the remaster treatment like CE & 2. If that's not the case, I don't really care all that much anymore.

No, it was always going to be the H3/4 treatment- 1080p/ 60fps.

It's intentional. The IVs are arrogant and unpredictable which presents a contrast with the disciplined IIs. Begs the question of which program is more favourable: the morally grey one involving kidnapping kids to produce perfect soldiers or  "safe" method of using adult volunteers so the supersoldiers can be mass produced without ethical concerns, but as a result the soldiers are more unpredictable.

THIS

But it doesn't make any sense that they'd be unpredictable because most of the IV's are the best of the best, volunteers from UNSC. ODSTs, Army and so on. We aren't talking arrogant people here.

We're talking about the best standard, un-augmented human soldiers around. They didn't just go through random rookies and go, "here have some augs lol."

They went through professionals, soldiers who were already at their physical peak, the best they could be. I'd wager most Spartan IV's are veterans because any particular soldier in the UNSC who showed any special qualities or skill was a veteran. That means they've gone through the war, survived it, and not only that, but encountered or heard the stories of the Spartan IIs.

For any one of them to suddenly become so arrogant and borderline stupid just because they've received augments boosting them past what they used to be as soldiers just seems silly, considering the background of most Spartan IVs.

Except that it never affects missions. Any time they are shown on-mission; SpOps, Escalation, Spartan Assault, New Blood, Initiation, they don't have the arrogance and joining attitude they have off mission. When in combat, they're just as professional as any other soldier in the UNSC.

It's the equivalent of post game banter in a lobby on multiplayer, when everyone takes the piss out of ech other before gets more serious when te game starts.

And she has a British accent in the commercials here in the UK.

WOT THE FUCK M8
yeh but women with a "proper" accent is hot af
Ew no.
Most British women make my ears bleed.
Stop listening to Scouse and Geordie accented women then
Motherfucker you all sound the same.
dude no

that's like every American sounds like people from Boston
There are two accents in my state, not counting nigger talk. How can an island nation with a mere 4k square mile land difference have eight fucking accents?
You all sound the same weather you like it or not.
Probably because the USA is lacking in a lot of things.

Example

Good accents
Proper English
London Accent (Upper Class)
South-Eastern (Non-Inbred)
Midlands (Non-Brummie)
Oxford/Etonian
(Space for a few others)

Tolerable accents
Cornish
Devonian
Midlander (Peasantry/Non-Brummie)

Disgusting accents
Pretty much anything north of Worcester.
Anything on the east coast.
Peasant accents
Brummie
Manc
Kiddy (Absolute worst, think brummie but even more inbred *local one*)

I want to die when these people talk
Liverpudlian

Now I hold nothing against people from these places, but it's best if they don't talk to me with their retch inducing accents.

Point is Das, there are so many forms of britbong dialect that ^this is just a vague list off the top of my head.

YORKSHIRE ACCENT BEST ACCENT

No. Just basic biology. 3 days without water equals death.

I fail to see how intelligence factors into what someone enjoys.

That aside, it seems 343i is starting to notice most everybody doesn't like it. They got rid of the end of match dudebros from H5 and the Spartans in escalation haven't been nearly half as bad as they were in H4. Even Majestic team becomes like, not annoying.

Except Palmer. Fuck Palmer.

Yeah, Jen Taors voice is see for the American version. But apparently they get a shit voice actor because it sounds more British.


Fuck off, I don't care if things sound a bit weird ragarding place names. If I get something called Cortana I expect it to be Cortana.


It's like going to a Godzilla film and not seeing Godzilla in it. Well why is it called godz- owait
