Your cat now magically does not sit a box next your pc. But now the cat sits on top of your pc. Then while putting in the newest volume of Juggies on Dvd your aunt bought you, the cats tail wagged and got caught in the dvd drive while.closing. The cat yelps and claws the power cord. This triggers an electrical fire in the wall. Everything in the house burns. The only remaining object left from the fire is ironically the box your cat used to sit in. I wish kids didn't ruin every nice car you buy.

Everyone needs to relax and take a good hard look at the situation for what it is. Its been a year and you still cannot effectivly find a solution to every complaint you have with the gameplay? Yeah..... time to.move on then. Even if things are adjusted to your liking it will only be a matter of time before people find something else to ***** about. I say just shut up and play, or go play a different game. Nuff said!

Obviously you have never crafted a map.from from.scratch in 3ds max Biggles. Forge has nothing to.do with maps. Forge is just a console.friendly adaptation of Bungie's Sapien tool that you use to place objects, spawns, machs etc into a map before compiling it for game use. Forge creations take no actual.skill. You simply place premade objects on a premade terrain environment. Have you never seen any of the custom CE Hali.1 maps or.Halo.2 PC maps that have been done? Most in my opinion are far superior than some lame ass remakes. The only reason why we got multiplayer maps.based off of.campaign maps in Reach, is because ever since Halo 2, most of the modding community created sp based multiplayer maps. I've done quite a few myself. Even as I speak, I am crafting a forerunner firefight map based off of the concept art and images from Halo Legends.

Sorry about that drunken rant from yesterday. I am clear headed and sober now. The german in me gets fiesty when alcohol is involved. I agree 100% Brave. Taking on terrorism should be a complete unilateral world involved task. Sometimes I get the feeling that the US is the only country with enough balls to stand up and take action. Even the UN can't get enough of the world to.take action. But then again unless we could effectivly destroy the islam religion, killing the head of these terrorist networks will only inspire more followers and other heads will just grow in its place.

The documents I refer to are the ones the government post up as a constitutional right of the publics "disclosure" of all government activities. These documents are posted up for mere minutes or mere seconds then taken down, declassified, blacked out and filed away in the Congressional Library. Even having access to the library does not guarantee you will know what to look for or what you will find. I don't disagree that what happened sucks, but taking the ramblings of an old middle eastern ideology extremist is not enough for me. I want to see the physical proof that we got the REAL undeniable enemy. My point is this, America sucks. Face facts. It has become a second rate laughing stock of the world. The only thing we know how to do well anymore is take a licking and hand out threats from our military. Do we export or produce any real usable world wide good or supply? We don't even have enough care or comintment to keep a majority of our businesses from going over seas. Had we kept our noses out of problems that did not concern us, we would not be where we are now. Can anyone give us any good reason why we got involved in the middle east to begin with. And I don't mean from late 90's to now...I'm talking since after the Vietnam war. What purpose or goal did we really have out there? Oil? Money? Territory expansion? Look at some of the captured documents from web sites that specialize in government declassified documents. You would be astonished to see what kind of things the government has on file and has done. But whatever. I'll happily be going back to my father land in the next few years away from this hell hole. German born and bred! And damn proud of it! T

Yeah but Hang'em High was redone for Halo 2. I don't need a remake of a remake of a remake in my future map packs. No thanks. I prefer fresh new maps. 343 can take that re-garbled crap from the previous titles and choke themselves with it. I wanna see some original stuff. I wanna see what this team is actually gonna be capable of. Cause if the whole map pack and future Reach support is gonna be remakes and stuff, then I could only imagine that Halo 4 would end up being all pieces of existing maps from the other titles, just cut up and pasted together. Soooo boring. And before people start hating on my point of view.... I am an active map maker. And yes I have created some pretty intense original Halo and Halo 2 maps.

Unfortunately for the younger Americans, they are not as informed or now have any access to any documents relieving the truth about past wars and future wars. The point is, we started the whole damn with the middle east by sticking our noses in their business stretching back to the mid 80's. From that point on, we have further involved ourselves in things that didn't need our involving. Nothing fruitful has come from us invading the middle east. Did any good come from taking out Sadam? Nope. Pointless revenge act for something Sadam was "claimed" to have involvement in. Speaking of "claims", let's just start with the most recent. Osama Bin Laden. The man was never convicted, named or charged by any international law or government council outside the US for any crimes related to the United States. Go ahead, look it up. You will not see one official filed charge against the man. WE needed to put a face on evil for the things done to our men and women, and OUR GOVERNMENT chose a foreign national to suspect, judge and execute. Did we really think killing Osama wasn't going to bring any rage or more attacks to our country. You don't go into a beehive and kill the queen, then expect everything will be fine while walking out. You will get stung, and stung hard. And war sometimes is a good thing. Without a World War I and II, Nazi SS's (my grandfather was an SS soldier) and the rest of the Hitler movement in Germany would have spread their poisonous view and policy to all of Europe and Russia, eventually working their way further out to possibly the US. Those same wars also helped the US out of the great depression mind you. It created tons of jobs for it's citizens. Just a shame so many soldiers had to die. But then again, back in those days, you knew who you were fighting and you actually went to war with a true passion for upholding the american spirit. Most of our troops today more than likely hardly even really know who they ARE actually fighting. They are over their suffering almost the same conditions as the supposed enemy, and dying left and right. They deserve better. All the American forces do.

Razskuls, you quite obviously have not decompiled or decrypted any [weap] or [proj] tags for Halo Reach. I have provided ample proof in numerous other threads about what bloom is, how it works, and how it is controlled by the [weap] tag. Please do not go around insulting or accusing others of having no knowledge of the inner working of the game engine and it's content. Rest assured, I alone have enough knowledge of Blam! and MegaloScript to put you and anyone else under the table any day of the week when it comes to actual game extracted data on how things work and how they are linked. Do yourself a favor and check for my posts about bloom. It will save you and everyone else time. Why us Vore, huh?

First things first, locate more guns and ammo than I already have at home now. At which point, once armed to take out any animal dangers, I would locate a usable vehicle and secure fuel in storage containers. More than likely a large gasoline or deisel vehicle like a semi would be the best bet. You could easily convert the semi into a usable housing unit and use the vehicle to secure supplies and travel in between towns. Now, most utilities like electric have an automatic run feature, like most of the Electric sub stations do. They can produce and distribute electric for a good amount of time. The problem is maintaining the systems from failing. That being said, I would start broadcasting on either a small band or large band radio frequency to locate any survivors that may be around. Overall I would just hop around the country looking for people and at some point procure a vessel to travel into other countries. Traveling from Alaska over to Russia is the shortest water bearing trip to get to Europe and would likely be the safest as I don't know a damn thing about boats...lmao

I just really wish someone from 343 would post up a solid developer explanation of the "blooming" reticule. It would stop me from having to post and re-post detailed game specific data over and over again to prove to people what Vore already stated in he beginning of the thread. Seeing is believeing, but even if we play it and we see more accuracy without bloom or bloom toned down, it does not mean bloom = accuracy. Bloom works based off of the core values specified in the [weap] and [proj] tags.

I am sure I speak for everyone here when I say "The game has been out for almost a year now...and you are still bitching these little things?" Seriuosly guys, it's been a long enough time that you should have been been figured out a good strategy or game style to combat all the issues you have with it. A game will always have issues and will never please 100% of the gaming community. Take Reach for what it is and get on with your lives. And swear to god, if I see one more post about bloom anywhere, I am gonna scream my head off. Noone here has been able to argue back to me why and what bloom is, and how changing it would change the game.

From what I can tell from the encrypted tags I have been able to locate, we are looking at the main script file that calls various sub-scripts. It is combined in part with spawn scripts for ai, objects, animations. You can see the dialog towards the end. If anyone is interested, I am in the process of mapping and listing the complete set of all called sub scripts used in the M10.map file (Winter Contingincy).

I'm not sure about the quality. I have yet to use the device since I got it. Was planning on transferring over old Hi 8 home movies. I'll give it a test run on tuesday. I'll just hook up my 360 to it, and take a few vids of theatre mode play so see how good it is. I'll post up a link for you to take a look at. As for editing software, I have an extensive suite of over 12 different editors, I am sure I can find one to meet the needs.

Doesn't matter how much they retool the pistol, it will never feel or fire the same as the original CE one. You guys say it is cool now to be able to use it for a quick 3 shot kill, but how many of you actually remember, or even play CE now? The lead time required with weapons like the pistol, is what made them balanced in a way in CE. With the retooled Reach magnum, they are not making a lead time for it, which will lead to much rage. And no you cannot fire as fast as you can pull the trigger. All weapons have a set "recovery fire time" value, that prevents this from happening. Only weapons like the AR have this value set to "0" or very low.

Came with my xbox at launch. Had never heard of the game or anything about it till i got the console. Btw... It was the limited edition clear green one i bought after i got hooked. The level that truly got me hooked on halo though, was The Library.

Dude you totally need to post the story up.somewhere. We should make an official Halo Universe forum section for things like this. If possible get some kind of copyright or protection against someone stealing your work. If it is possible since MS owns it. But still I.would love to read it and I think many more members in the community would too. Imma talk to spectral about getting a new section. You can be the first to post some stuff up!

Said explosive soda was found

For more info regarding your questions on bloom and how they are doing this for CEA, refer to my post in the "Reach" forums. Post is entitled "Happy Birthday Hater" or something like that. I explain in detail what bloom is and how 343 is adjusting certain game mechanics to mimic original CE weapons.

Thanks for the info Bubonic. always appreciated But yeah, if we don't get to play anything related to the elites in the new trilogy, I think a spin off game like ODST should be made. Incorporate the past history with the shyuum for sure. I think the shyuum are the prophets..right? BTW, do you do any writing for Halo at all? With all the things you know, I bet you could come up with one hell of a story to play out.

I like to camp a spot where I can see lots of action and death. Then wait for the right time to shoot a downed grenade as 2 or more members are walking over them, and KABLOOOIEEEEEE! The only problem is that I have to hope the people in that area already have the 2 max nades each. Otherwise it becomes a long wait.

I dont have a capture card. But I do have a component to usb device that allows me to connect my 360 to my pc and play off my pc monitor. Would that do?

There is no argument. You don't know anything about it. You have yet to post any relevant sources pertaining to your view besides a lame video of some gameplay that was tweaked by 343. Even if the video was sufficient proof, can you explain how the adjusted bloom works? Or for that matter how simply removing bloom alone made the weapon function as it did? Said tweaks were what i explained in my long post about bloom and how they went about achieving the things they did. Do you read anything I say with an open mind? Or are you just that full of hate that you blindly glance at things and just decide it is better to insult people?
