  1. Check out these Race Tracks

    in Race Maps

    Posted

    The first guy to ever spend time showing me how to forge finally joins the site. Guys I don't personally like to race flat skill based maps but Darkstar072 is an amazing racetrack maker. He started this league almost 2 years ago and I know a few racers who race it religiously. I can guarantee a good time but don't be cocky. Just when you think you are a good racer they will be lapping you. They take this very seriously(while laughing the whole time) and actually do hundreds of practice laps before each big race. Check it out and be featured on youtube as placing first, if your good enough.

  6. what do u like about the 343i comminty forums

    in General Discussion

    I have been a member for almost a year which is the longest I have ever stayed with any forum. I have stayed in the shadows observing other members applying my years of psychology from college to do a psychoanalysis on most of you. Although it's hard without seeing body movement to really read someone, I have noticed a few things. The bonds which support the backbone(moderators) of this forum are solid, the head(TWAM) is wise, and the appendages(us) are flexible at times but supportive of the core. It's a recipe for success and I wanted to be a part of it. For the first year I stayed in the bubble at the bottom known as forge world and posted about my custom game nights. Now it's time to venture out and I am enjoying it.

  8. Shout box conduct/Respect for moderators.

    This is just basic knowledge in life 343I members. Respect your elders and treat others how you would like to be treated. Why is everyone pointing fingers at moderators? Is it wrong that they care enough about you as a community to keep the place clean from disrespectful and mean people?

     

    No one will make it far in the real world talking behind your bosses back and calling them names if your disciplined. No they are not your bosses, but they are the authority figures who try their best to make this enjoyable for us and NO we couldn't do a better job. Go 1V1 them if you have aggression towards them.

     

    I ran a business for 12 years with 55 employees who treated me as a friend. They also knew that I was the authority figure, though, and would never say some of the things that are written in this thread.

     

    Starting rumors and drama will never result in a good thing. So be the bigger person and eliminate it from conversations you hear. Life is full of so many things that are much more interesting to talk about anyways.

  11. Are You Smarter Than a NOOB?

    Know More?!?! PROOOOOVE It!!!

     

    So each week during my custom game nights I started doing something which I had not previously done before Halo 4. In between games I sometimes asked random Halo trivia and then give awards to whoever texts me the answer first. The players have all really enjoyed it so I wanted to bring it to our community. We all "claim" to love Halo more than the next but do we KNOW about Halo. It's a fun way to compete while showing your devotion to the greatest game ever. Since, I am not able to "host" a thread like I host game nights I will change the rules a little.

     

    Rules of Engagement:

    1. I will start it of by asking a Halo trivia.

    2. I(you) will check it daily(key part, you must be active) to see who gets the right answer.

    3. I(you) will then respond to the first post who answers the trivia with a complete answer and pass the "Trivia Master" title.

    4. Then I(you) will announce that they are the new "Trivia Master" so that they can take lead.

    5. Then they will get to show off their Halo knowledge by posting the next Halo trivia question as "Trivia Master".

     

     

    Let's see who can be the first one to stump the community with their awe inspiring knowledge of this great Halo universe.

     

     

    Here's an example:

     

    Spades N AZ: What are the true names of the covenant races?

     

    TWAM: hunters, grunts, brutes, elites, prophets,drones, jackels

     

    Spades N AZ: nope, sorry TWAM but that's only what the humans call them because we are to lazy to pronounce their real names.

     

    Spectral Jester: oh this is easy......Mgalekgolo, Unggoy, Jiralhanae, Saaangheili, San 'Shyuum, Yanme'e, Kig-Yar

     

    Spades N AZ: Wow SJ, I didn't know that you are such a Halo geek. Good job, your crowned the new "Trivia Master".

     

     

    Another example:

     

    Spades N AZ: what is the significance of the number 343 and why did 343 industries name themselves that?

     

    Absolute Dog: because Bungies favorite number was seven and 343 has numerals which relate to seven.

     

    Spades N AZ: Sorry Doggy dog but not quit

     

    Total Mayhem: because 343 is 7x7x7 which is also 7 cubed but you wouldn't get that Spades.

     

    Spades N AZ: huh [scratching head] after reviewing numerous sources you are correct Vitaman PWN. I dub thee "Trivia Master"

     

     

    Rules of Engagement cont:

     

     

    6. If no one gets the answer correct after a week then the questioner will be added to the ranks of the "Trivia Master" hall of glory and get to ask another question.

    7. If the answer is partially right then be the first to completely answer it correctly and you get to be "Trivia Master".

    8. If you become "Trivia Master" and some one answers it correctly without a response in 3 days I will resume the "Trivia Master" position.

    8.5 If you are caught editing then all your answers are void and you are dubbed a cheater.

    9. There is no way to play favoritism. First one to answer correctly gets to be "Trivia Master". So no whining.

    10. More rules may be added at any time(if needed) to keep this good clean fun!

     

    First question as "Trivia Master"

     

    Q: There are literally hundreds of references to the number 7. Titles which involve seven, maps with seven hallways, seven towers, 343 guilty spark, etc. Who can name the most by the end of the week? First one to reference something gets credit for it, so be the first.

  15. Complaints...

    in Halo 4

    Welcome to one of the greatest forum communities although not directly affiliated with 343, we also don't go unnoticed. The rules are pretty straight forward. Try to keep whatever subject you post on in the appropriate location to reduce clutter and be respectful of others( you should review all of them). These will get you far on here. After reviewing the rules invest some time to familiarize yourself with the topics and there locations. You'll find everything from A-Z on here and whatever the site is missing then feel free to add or suggest. As far as your post goes, I disagree with MOST of them and can inform you on some of them but 4 and 5 I agree with. Anyway, I do a custom game night every Friday which is open to all members of 343 I so feel free to once again read my thread if you would like to participate. Hope you enjoy yourself and meet a lot of new friends.

    This is a needed and well deserved post. I have seen this too. Especially when I try to venture out and meet people or join in the shoutbox. It has always been and always will be human nature to band together. Humans have done this for centuries. Most humans need to feel that "comfort" from knowing we are not alone and the security that comes from the strength of numbers. Especially, those who are alone or insecure. I agree that the members of this great forum need to realize that these "cliques" are unnecessary. You are already part of the greatest Halo forum out there! We are not going to always agree with everything or everyone(nor should we loose our identity) but we should always support the 343 Industries Forum as a whole.

  20. Official 343i.org Custom Game Night every Friday starting @ 6:00 AZ time

    Posted

    Wow that last post was HAARSH......my bad. Hey guys next week is back to Halo 4. REACH was fun and we still somehow managed to fill the lobby for 4 hours(but I was sick and had to leave). However, we have a new game and the more we get used to some of the new options the more we will love it. I would love to have a lobby with a ton of new names again along with the regulars I invite you all to come see why this Custom game night has been running for 2 years almost now and join in on the fun.

    Although I would love to be the nice guy that sends out 70+ messages after looking up every ones time-zones and typing in every gamertag, ultimately it's not realistic. Use your phones, almost every one has a world clock on it. Also if you just post invite me Spades, it probably won't happen. I have dozens of people every week who take the time to send me a message which takes 2 minutes of there time. Now turn that around and how long would it take me to send out dozens of invites to those not connected with. I hope you guys understand where I am coming from. Sorry to be sort of sarcastic, hopefully not rude, but completely realistic. I just don't have the time to hold everyone's hands.
