Welcome to the forums! First things first, firepower is kind of a waste. It is nice, but you don't learn to compensate for each weapon and learn to play it as easily as using one exclusively at first. If you are worried about losing because of reload, use Dexterity, a must have for many players. Also, learn to use the magnum well (get a friend and start playing some magnum wars in custom games). I started to get good with it in Reach, and it is a nice thing to be able to use. But dexterity typically will be better than learning the magnum. Second, the grenade pick up perk is very nice. You begin to aquire more grenades and you always seem to be able to have one, a problem I have noticed with Halo 4 (that you always run out of grenades). Pick whatever perks fit your style, but dexterity is a must have. Third, when you are spawning think about two things: 1. Spawn now or wait. Will instant spawning be better for me to help my team, or will waiting to spawn because they are going to die/fall back be better. 2. When you spawn, press switch weapons twice. When you first switch to or pick up a weapon, there is an extra second your spartan takes when doing it (flipping off the safety, opening up a screen on the side, etc).This is plainly prevalent in power weapons, but was really prevalent in Reach. By "spawn switching," you won't have to deal with it later, thus more time you have on your side. Fourth, learn to sidestep/ straf. find your own way of doing it, it just takes practice and time. Try to switch it up, and when having "hallway duals/ corner duals," swtich up the times when you expose yourself. So instead of crouch for 1 second, pop up and fire, repeat. Do: crouch for 1 second, fire, crouch for 2, fire twice, crouch for 1 second, jump and go after the person. Fifth, learn the maps. Go into a custom game by your self or with a friend, and just jump around the map, looking for ways to quickly traverse it or find angle to see people coming. Look at some gameplay footage and see if anyone has found any jumps on the maps and practice yourself. Halo in past games and in a majority of Halo 4 is knowing the game and maps. Sixth, find an "octogon" map. The idea is that you and your buddy can have some rapid pace duals in a short amount of time. You begin to learn how to line up shots better. This is better for non- auto matic weapons, and is one good way to learn to use the magnum effectively. These are just my personal views, so take them with a grain of salt. But you should be able to get some key ideas from what i have said.

Simple, have a list for 50 members, but have a total of 52 slots for 53 members, like you did last time.

Wow, this looks wonderful, and seems to work really well. I'll have to play it some time!

Congratulations and well deserved, both of you! I expect great things!

I must tip my hat to you, a year is a long commitment, and you have shown you dedication to the forums. Way to go ZB!

Well, none of the above. It's Faramir.

Just some nice hints: Look up how-to start the Dark Brotherhood questline. There are many good rewards for a beginning player (including a horse) and it teaches some nice skills to know. It doesn't start like a typical quest line, and thus is skipped a lot. Finish the main quest line early, there are powers that you can only unlock after completing it, and they are very useful. Each race has their own advantage. I personally like Brenton best, mainly because the race has higher combat and magic levels at the beginning, plus a 25% resistance to magic automatically. If you want to be a mage, go dark elf, high elf, or Brenton. If you want to be an archer, go wood elf, imperial, Brenton, redguard, or orc. If you want to be a warrior, go nord, imperial, Brenton, redguard, or orc. Simple as this, once you get later in the game, magic is the best. Any questions?

hmm, many members who were active almost a year ago are starting to come back. I really like this...

42. Black Screen, everyone respawns with AR and no armor abilities.

28. Ring activation.

Indeed, Area 51 is one of many aircraft testing facilities. Many Cold War stealth planes were tested at night, thus the common misconceptions of UFOs. One of the nearby crashes of one of the planes, having new, secret technology at the time, is the main reason for conspirists, as the military went in and shut down an entire town to clean up. In a similar case, back in the early 40's a bomber was in training and flew into a mountain (trail peak) on Boy Scout property in Cimarron, New Mexico. The army went and removed the new bombing sights from it, in case spys arrived with any locals. I've climbed that mountain, and the wreckage is all over one side of the mountain. The plane hit and went up the mountain as it crashed. It is really cool, since various parts of the plane are found thousands of feet from each other. And it looks exactly like this, the wing is at the peak. I have been to all of these locations talked about. http://www.summitpost.org/trail-peak-nm/583413

I completely agree, I have noticed how the forum has evolved over the past three months, and I do not like what I see. Many members have left recently, and now some are coming back and being active. I believe that the wheels of progress has begun to turn again, and will gain momentum if we want it to.

And what is the point of this thread exactly?
