  1. I started with Combat Evolved and have followed it because of the story. I have always thought the multiplayer was pretty dull since Combat Evolved. I never understood why so many people liked Halo 2 other than nostalgia. I mean if someone talks up about how they're into competitive arena shooters they might as well go play Quake or Unreal Tournament. Anyways I don't care what they do with multiplayer, whatever makes more people happy is what they should do. Just put a good campaign in the game.
  2. The flood is a precursor creation made from the corrupt remains of precursors. I still think the owl thing in the first Halo 5 teaser could be Mendicant Bias. In the Agent Locke cutscene when you start Halo 2A you can see it on the Arbiter's screen so it must tie in somewhere.
  3. The Primordial was in fact a Gravemind, it is confirmed at the end of Primordium. Also it was my understanding the the dust the humans found wasn't something that made precursors powder, but was actually precursors only desicated. Then just sitting there somehow made it flawed and this was sort of like a beginning of the flood. The remaining precursors who survived then turned the powder into the flood so they could use it to eradicate the forerunners. I also like to think that the Precursors downfall was a combination of them not realizing that their creations could become super powerful and even attempt to overthrow them. So when the forerunner decided they wanted them dead the Precursors were so surprised and unknowing about that situation they were mostly killed. I don't want them to ever appear in a game personally. I feel it would ruin the mystery about them. I would much rather have the forerunner fleshed out into a more interesting group if that is even possible.
  4. It would have to be a really lame alien to let you do any of these three things.
  5. They probably will add elites cause they will crack under the peer pressure.
  6. The MC Collection should have been called the Remaster Chief Collection. "Remaster Chief, mind telling me what you are doing on that ship?" "Sir. Remastering this fight."

      Just like how they should've called CE Anniversary "Halo: Combat Revolved" but oh well. Catchy titles aren't exactly 343's strong suit when it comes to remasters.

  7. So after following the news on the Internet for a couple days it seems to me that that the hype wasn't bought at all. I'm aware that on sights like metacritic all the really low reviews are generally garbage, same with most of the 10/10 reviews. But when people point it out it doesn't seem to be because of how good a game Destiny is just saying it doesn't deserve to be given a 0 or 1. I'm interested to see what kind of reviews other sights give it, I'm really expecting a bunch of 7's, 8's, and maybe some 9's because AAA title reviews are pretty lenient or they are paid. As for me I will probably get it during Steam's 2015 Winter Sale when it is $10 or something. I also want to point out that I am on a campus that has thousands of people come and go everyday and I only know 1 person who has bought it and have heard absolutely zero talk about it. Seems like most of their 'success' has come from the pre-orders due to the massive hype train. Will have to wait another week or so to see what it sales are really going to be like.
  8. It sounds like 343 has done/doing a much better job with voice acting stuff than Bungie did. I'm surprised the interviewer didn't ask the second guy if Guilty Spark was going to be part of Halo 5 in any way. Going off a comment he made I think that it would have been way better idea to make a Guilty Spark 'siri' instead of Cortana, at least from the standpoint of the way the voice sounds. The Cortana voice doesn't sound very good to me and sort of comes off as emotionless. Given that Guilty Spark has a much more robotic voice it could have worked better. Too bad he isn't as recognizable.
  9. Star Wars seems to be doing alright, why can't anyone else expand their franchise?
  10. Cause Halo 2 was a phenomenon in video games. It pretty much single handedly launched online multiplayer for consoles.
  11. I never actually knew this was a thing, but that is probably because I would never use it.
  12. Here is what happens in that issue.
  13. I got a bunch of games sitting in Steam that I got for less than $20 that I am playing and still need to play. However, I will give it to Warcraft 3 since I played that game a ton.
  14. Anyone see that China is about to start selling the Xbox One, they estimate 50 million to be sold in the next 5 years

    1. Is not JL

      Is not JL

      im afraid

      i know it's weird for it to be me of all people, but i really don't want to play online with mainland chinese people

      Well it is a specific Chinese version so I'm guessing that if you aren't on dedicated Chinese servers you won't run into them

      Do if I buy one of these...

  15. If I'm not mistaken it has more than doubled how many units have been sold since Christmas. Then it was around 3 million and now it is almost 7 million. I wouldn't call that 'very well' though seeing as the Xbox One has still sold 1 million more units in the same amount of time.
  16. I didn't mention anything about adults. Just because the cartoons can be made for adults does not mean that Halo's audience is appropriate for such a thing. I have no idea how much of Halo Legends 8 millionish box office revenue is actually profit but the reviews were generally mixed feelings. 4.5 years have gone be since that was released and there hasn't been a word about doing another. I'm sure they have brought the topic up before and obviously it isn't something they want to do at the moment. And you must know, the Halo crowd is a bunch of 12 years old anyways.
  17. I like how Halo is the cash cow, but Star Wars is the cool example. The franchise probably doesn't have the appropriate audience for an action cartoon.
  18. Maybe it is finally time for them to go the way of Sega. Or they can just try and make their consoles more the like the Wii which appealed to a huge variety of people.
  19. I use the default layout for each game and it seems to work for me. So whatever they decide on will work for me.
  20. I think the rapid decline in Halo 4's online population is evidence that they are doing something wrong. Maybe if they changed it in the right way it could be more successful or maybe not. After H2A's multiplayer has been available for several months I think then we can find out what the best option for Halo multiplayer is.
  21. My name in Warcraft 3 was thewonderwombat, I named a gametag the same thing, but I messed something up with that one so I had to make a new one, thus W0NDERW0MBAT was born.
  22. I'm done, I ran out of characters to name.
  23. Do you not think that MS or 343 hasn't already collected data for such a thing. If they thought it would be a huge success they would probably do it right away.
  24. How much 3D art is shown here? Currently I am making a P-51D Mustang out of foam for the high school I went to. Right now the fuselage is almost 8 feet long (no nose cone yet), and the wingspan is almost 10 feet long. So needless to say it is huge, will post picture soon.
  25. How much can't could a white girl can't if a white girl literally could not even?
